Financial Guidance

The Company updated its 2022 guidance. The Company is again raising the bottom end of its revenue guidance from $90 million to $94 million, and reiterated the top end of the range of $104 million. This change is based on improved visibility and confidence in achieving the new revenue range.

The Company is revising its cash usage guidance to be in the range of $78 million to $92 million. This move is based on the Company's year-to-date cash usage of nearly $73 million and risk in the timing of receipt of a couple large system related payments.   System shipments for the year remain on track but, installation project timelines related to construction and permitting activities routinely change and can result in an impact on the interquarter timing of payments.  The Company expects to collect these payments in 2023 and for those payments to benefit 2023 cash.
