Management Commentary

"We closed the year with a solid fourth quarter, where we returned to growth in Interventional Glaucoma, demonstrated encouraging commercial traction following significant reimbursement milestones in Interventional Dry Eye, and continued our disciplined expense and cash management," said Paul Badawi, Co-Founder and CEO of Sight Sciences. "These achievements underscore the strength of our interventional technologies and commercial infrastructure in the large and growing glaucoma and dry eye markets. In 2026, we remain focused on building a leading interventional eye care company and leveraging the complementary nature of our two interventional businesses to drive synergistic growth with a pathway toward cashflow breakeven."

2026 Financial Guidance

Sight Sciences expects its revenue for full year 2026 to range from $82 million to $88 million, representing growth of 6% to 14% compared to full year 2025. This revenue guidance includes Interventional Glaucoma segment revenue of $77 million to $81 million, representing growth of 2% to 7% and Interventional Dry Eye segment revenue of $5 million to $7 million, compared to $1.6 million in 2025.

The Company expects adjusted operating expenses1,3 for full year 2026 to range from $93 million to $96 million, representing an increase of 6% to 9% compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to targeted investments in both business segments, including expanded market access efforts and additional commercial resources to scale the reimbursed dry eye market and the pseudophakic standalone glaucoma opportunity.

1 "Adjusted operating expenses" is a financial measure not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP", and therefore such a measure, is a "non-GAAP financial measure"), and is calculated as operating expenses less stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring costs, and other one-time costs. Please see the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below for additional information.

2 A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures has been provided in the table titled "Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation" attached to this press release.

3 Consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulations, the Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in reliance on the "unreasonable efforts" exception set forth in the applicable regulations, because there is substantial uncertainty associated with predicting any future adjustments that may be made to the Company's GAAP financial measures in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted operating expenses, a non-GAAP financial measure, is presented in this press release to provide information that may assist investors in understanding the Company's financial and operating results. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure is an important performance indicator because it excludes items that are unrelated to, and may not be indicative of, the Company's core financial and operating results. This non-GAAP financial measure, as calculated, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for comparing the performance of other companies relative to the Company. This non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be a more meaningful measure than, or an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent the Company utilizes such non-GAAP financial measure in the future, it expects to calculate it using a consistent method from period to period.
