Solésence, Inc. reported a net loss of $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, a significant decline from a net income of $0.08 million in the prior year.

A positive development was the swing to $1.52 million in cash provided by operating activities, compared to $7.22 million used in the prior year.
