MAKO Surgical reported a net loss of $21.3 million in the third quarter, nearly four times as much as the $6.6 million loss suffered during the same quarter last year. Total third quarter revenue totaled $22.8 million, down nearly 22 percent from 2012, a drop the company attributed to fewer sales of RIO robotic systems. MAKO's third quarter operating expenses were $37.6 million, up 42 percent from last year due in part to $6.6 million in transaction costs related to the merger agreement with Stryker.
In September, Stryker announced it will purchase MAKO Surgical.
