DIH Technology

What DIH Technology does

DIH Technology is a publicly traded (NASDAQ: DHAI) global provider of robotic and virtual-reality rehabilitation technology, headquartered in Volketswil, Switzerland, with 221 employees and operations across 80+ countries. Founded in 2007 by Jason Chen, the group consolidated its position through 2016 mergers with Hocoma (robotic and sensor-based functional movement therapy devices) and Motekforce Link (now Motek, virtual reality and robotics for rehabilitation research), and the 2022 acquisition of SafeGait Rehabilitation Devices from Gorbel, Inc. The portfolio covers the full continuum of care, from early mobilization through advanced gait and upper-limb therapy, and spans clinical, research, and home markets. Flagship products include the Lokomat robotic gait trainer (1,000+ units installed by 2020), the Armeo upper-limb family (Power, Spring, Spring Pro, Senso), ErigoPro, Andago, RYSEN, and the Motek research systems C-Mill VR+, GRAIL, and CAREN. The HocoNet and D-Flow software platforms integrate devices, patient data, and outcomes across the installed base of 4,500+ units.

DIH's business model is enterprise sale of high-value capital equipment (device revenue of $15.0M in Q2 FY2025, up 49% YoY) supplemented by recurring service revenue ($2.7M in Q2 FY2025) on the installed base. Go-to-market combines direct regional sales offices in North America, EMEA, APAC, and LATAM with a network of 60 channel partners. Customers are predominantly hospital systems, rehabilitation facilities, and academic research centers, anchored by marquee accounts such as Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, Shepherd Center, Sheltering Arms Institute, and eight designated Centers of Excellence. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contracts, and the company cites 1,300+ peer-reviewed publications and a 9-member Scientific Advisory Board as clinical-evidence assets underpinning sales.

Financials show $18.2M in Q2 FY2025 revenue (39% YoY growth), 52.6% gross margin (up ~11 points YoY), and FY2025 guidance of $60M-$67M. The company raised $1.5M from OrbiMed in February 2024 and closed a $4.6M public offering in February 2025 via Maxim Group LLC. Recent capital allocation has emphasized geographic expansion (Saudi Arabia via Zahrawi Group), enterprise chain partnerships (Nobis Rehabilitation Partners), and ecosystem investment through the Centers of Excellence program, while operating under a hub-and-spoke model with regional headquarters in the US, Singapore, Slovenia, Chile, and Germany.

• Ekso Bionics (Ekso Health): Ekso Health (formerly Ekso Bionics) develops wearable exoskeletons and robotic rehabilitation devices for stroke, spinal cord injury, and neurological recovery. Directly competes with DIH in robotic gait rehabilitation, particularly in clinical and outpatient settings.
• Bionik Laboratories: Bionik Laboratories develops robotic rehabilitation technologies for upper and lower limb therapy, including the InMotion ARM system. Directly overlaps with DIH's Armeo family in upper-limb neurorehabilitation across hospitals and clinics.
• Cyberdyne: Cyberdyne manufactures the HAL (Hybrid Assistive Limb) robotic suit for rehabilitation and physical function support. Directly competes with DIH in robotic-assisted gait and lower-limb therapy, with strong presence in Japan and growing international footprint.
• Tyromotion: Tyromotion develops robotic and sensor-based devices for upper and lower extremity rehabilitation (e.g., Armeo, Pablo, Tymo). Closely comparable to DIH's Hocoma product family in clinical rehabilitation robotics, particularly in European markets.
• Fourier Intelligence: Fourier Intelligence manufactures rehabilitation robots including the RehabHub and ExoMotus exoskeleton series. Directly competes with DIH in gait and upper-limb robotic rehab, with rapid expansion in Asia and a growing global distributor footprint.

Emerging players

• AlterG: AlterG makes anti-gravity treadmills and other rehabilitation technology for physical therapy and sports medicine. Partial overlap with DIH's gait/balance training (Andago, C-Mill) in orthopedic and sports rehabilitation use cases.
• Saebo: Saebo develops upper-limb rehabilitation devices and orthoses (SaeboGlove, SaeboReach, SaeboStretch) for stroke and neurological recovery. Partial overlap with DIH's Armeo product family but focuses on lower-cost, clinic-and-home-use devices.
• Bioness: Bioness develops functional electrical stimulation (FES) and rehabilitation technology (L300 Go, H200 Wireless) for stroke and spinal cord injury. Adjacent to DIH in the neuro-rehab market but focuses on electrical stimulation rather than robotic exoskeletons.

Broad incumbents

• Ottobock: Ottobock is a global leader in prosthetics, orthotics, and exoskeleton technology, including the Paexo and C-Brace lines. Operates broadly across rehabilitation and mobility with overlapping patient populations and clinical channels but does not specialize in robotic gait rehab like DIH.
