- Management executed a strategic pivot to healthcare: signed an LOI on Nov 3 to acquire IHL of Florida (MediXall), followed by a name change to MediXall Group, a 1-for-15 reverse split (effective Nov 22), and completion of the share exchange on Dec 13 .
- Operating expense run-rate guidance was reduced to ~$200k/year in Q3 from ~$300k/year in prior quarters, reflecting cost controls during the pivot .

Estimates Context
Wall Street consensus via S&P Global was unavailable for MDXL for the 2016 quarters due to missing mapping; therefore, comparisons to estimates cannot be provided (SPGI/Capital IQ mapping not found for MDXL). Estimates are unavailable.
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Liquidity risk remains acute: cash of $155, widening working capital deficit, and continued reliance on related-party advances; near-term viability hinges on external financing and cost discipline .
- Strategic pivot is the core narrative: LOI and subsequent share exchange establish the MediXall healthcare platform and IP base; rebranding and reverse split aim to reposition the company .
- Expense control improving: OpEx run-rate guidance cut to
$200k/year, but ongoing burn ($10k/month) without revenue requires funding before commercialization . - No operational revenue or margins to assess: investment case is pre-revenue and execution-dependent on building the MediXaid marketplace and monetizing IP/licensing .
- Near-term trading catalysts are corporate actions and strategic newsflow (name/symbol change, reverse split, transaction completion), not fundamentals .
- Risk/reward skewed by going concern warnings; any financing or credible commercialization milestones could shift narrative and reduce solvency risk .
- Absence of sell-side coverage or consensus estimates limits near-term expectations anchoring; monitor filings for guidance, funding, and product launch timelines .
