Company Direction Insights

Brainsway has successfully returned to profitability in 2024, driven by U.S. market penetration for Deep TMS in depression and OCD. The strong cash position and multiple FDA clearances position the company for measured expansion into new indications and territories. Key challenges include managing the higher leverage from lease capitalization and securing broader reimbursement for emerging indications such as smoking addiction. Moving forward, Brainsway’s focus on hybrid commercial models, next-generation coil technology, and methodical clinical development should sustain growth while maintaining tight control over R&D spend and unit economics.
