- Strategic actions: signed a large hospital oncology contract, launched a machine‑learning billing platform, and restructured the largest biomedical services contract to prioritize margins, implying a near‑term revenue headwind with improved unit economics .
- Stock reaction: despite an EPS beat, shares fell ~11% in premarket trading on revenue miss and upcoming Device Solutions headwinds, highlighting investor sensitivity to growth trajectory .
What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- Oncology delivered a record quarter and secured a sought‑after contract with a large hospital system, expected to add patient volume by Q4; management also launched a machine‑learning platform to improve front‑end billing efficiency .
- Wound Care revenue increased ~$1.0M (+115% YoY), aided by first‑time PCD sales via a new supplier relationship and Apollo Medical’s revenue cycle application going live across the payer network .
- Gross margin expanded to 57.1% (+310 bps YoY) and Adjusted EBITDA rose to $8.3M with margin up 50 bps to 22.8%, reflecting pricing/productivity gains and lower selling expenses .
What Went Wrong
- Device Solutions revenue declined 2.9% YoY on weaker equipment sales (-33%) as prior‑year large contract timing did not repeat; segment mix headwind drove lower Patient Services gross margin (-120 bps YoY) due to faster growth in lower‑margin Wound Care .
- G&A rose 12.9% YoY to $14.4M (39.5% of revenue), reflecting ERP/business application upgrades (+$0.5M), added revenue cycle personnel (+$0.6M), and inflationary costs .
- Management is restructuring the largest biomedical services contract, reducing devices/service levels; while margin accretive, it creates a near‑term revenue headwind (management commentary flagged a ~$6–7M headwind starting December) .

Management Commentary
- “We continue to focus on driving value creation by prioritizing profitable growth and improving processes to lower our costs… higher revenue, margins and cash flow, while others will benefit future periods.” — Carrie Lachance, CEO .
- “In Oncology, we had a record quarter for revenue and secured a sought after contract with a large hospital system… We also launched a new technology‑based machine learning platform for improved efficiency of our front‑end health care billing operations.” — Carrie Lachance .
- “Our efforts to strategically focus on profitable growth has led us to restructure the contract with our largest biomedical services customer… this will reduce our ongoing revenue under the contract… [but] significantly improve the margin of the continuing business.” — Carrie Lachance .
Q&A Highlights
- Guidance reaffirmed despite near‑term Device Solutions headwinds; management referenced a ~$6–7M revenue impact starting December tied to biomedical contract changes, but maintained FY25 growth/margin targets .
- Operational initiatives: AI/machine‑learning billing efficiency and ERP upgrade cadence; Q3 ERP expense was $0.773M with total FY25 plan ~$2.5M (drop‑off expected post‑Q1 2026) .
- Wound Care momentum: PCD supplier onboarding and Apollo revenue cycle integration improved collections; mix shift lowers Patient Services gross margin but supports EBITDA .
- Capital allocation: YTD operating cash flow $17.3M; Q3 share repurchases ~$$2.2M; liquidity $54.6M and net debt reduced to $20.0M .
Estimates Context
- S&P Global consensus for Q3 2025: Revenue $36.806M*, Primary EPS $0.08* (5 estimates each). Actuals: Revenue $36.488M, diluted EPS $0.11; SPGI Primary EPS actual $0.1479* [functions.GetEstimates]* .
- Result: EPS beat; revenue slight miss. Expectations for FY25 likely to hold given reaffirmed guidance and margin trajectory, but analysts may trim Device Solutions growth assumptions near term due to contract restructuring .

Key Takeaways for Investors
- EPS beat with stronger gross margin and disciplined selling expenses, but revenue modestly missed on equipment sales timing; mix shift to Wound Care lowers Patient Services GM yet supports EBITDA through collections and platform leverage .
- Oncology momentum is a key catalyst: record revenue and a large hospital system contract should lift Q4 volumes; watch Q4 realization timing .
- Near‑term caution on Device Solutions: biomedical contract restructuring implies a December‑start revenue headwind (~$6–7M) even as unit economics improve; this was a driver of negative stock reaction despite EPS strength .
- Execution on technology initiatives (machine‑learning billing, ERP) is progressing; expect elevated G&A near term with margin benefits rolling through post‑implementation .
- Balance sheet and cash generation improved; liquidity $54.6M and net debt down to $20.0M provide flexibility for continued buybacks and selective investments .
- FY25 guide maintained (6–8% revenue growth; ≥20% Adj EBITDA margin), anchoring estimate models; consensus may adjust segment mix assumptions rather than total FY targets .
- Trading setup: near‑term volatility around Device Solutions reset; medium‑term thesis supported by oncology share gains, payer contract extension (effective early 2026), and scaling Wound Care revenue with improved collections .
