Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are in receipt of the comments of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) provided by a letter dated November 18, 2016. The comment letter relates to the above-referenced Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2015 (the “10-K”), Form 10-Q for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2016 (the “10-Q”) and Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed April 25, 2016 (the “Proxy Statement”), in each case, as filed by Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

For your convenience, each staff comment is presented below in italics, with the Company’s response immediately following in regular type.

Form 10-Q for the Quarter Ended 3/31/2016

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited), page 19

1. We note from your first quarter results made available on your investor relations website that you have sold 25 demonstration Ekso Aerial devices related to the industrial division. This appears to be a transaction unrelated to existing segments. Please tell us how this transaction affected your 2016 first quarter results.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company sold 25 Ekso Aerial devices at cost to one customer for the purpose of demonstrating their commercial viability (“demonstration units”). As a result of the sale, the Company recorded $135,000 in revenue, which represented 1.68% of the Company’s total revenue related to medical devices for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, and a 0% gross margin. Beginning with the Company’s Form 10-Q for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2016, the Company is reporting Industrial Sales as a segment due to its growing materiality and relevance.

With respect to Lockheed Martin Corporation (“Lockheed”), the Company receives revenue pursuant to the Government Field Cross License Agreement dated as of July 1, 2013 between Ekso Bionics, Inc. and Lockheed and the Cross License Agreement dated as of July 1, 2013 between Ekso Bionics, Inc. and Lockheed, and previously pursuant to a License Agreement dated January 8, 2009, which was terminated effected as of July 1, 2013.

The Company omitted the tabular disclosure required by Item 402(d) of Regulation S-K because it is an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, and as such, elected to follow the scaled disclosure provisions under Section 102 thereof, which allow the Company to comply with Item 402 by disclosing the same information as an issuer that is a “smaller reporting company.” A registrant that qualifies as a “smaller reporting company,” may provide the scaled disclosure in paragraphs (m) through (r) instead of paragraphs (a) through (k) and (s) of Item 402 of Regulation S-K.

The Company acknowledges that it is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of its disclosure, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the staff.

Please feel free to contact the undersigned at 707-324-9509 if you have any question relating to the Form 10-K, 10-Q, Proxy Statement or this letter.
