STREAMLINE HEALTH SOLUTIONS INC. (STRM)·Q1 2026 Earnings Summary
Executive Summary
- Q1 2026 (company’s fiscal Q1 ending April 30, 2025) delivered modest topline growth and improved profitability metrics: revenue rose to $4.81M, SaaS mix expanded to 69.9%, and adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $0.23M; GAAP net loss narrowed to $1.65M .
- Against external consensus, STRM beat on both EPS and revenue: EPS of -$0.40 vs -$0.45 and revenue of $4.81M vs $4.70M; both modest beats reduced near-term estimate risk .
- Pending all-cash acquisition by MDaudit at $5.34 per share (~138% premium to pre-announcement close) is the primary stock-catalyst and likely ceiling on near-term trading range; close expected in 3Q 2025 subject to customary conditions .
- Liquidity remains tight (cash $1.45M; line of credit balance $2.0M); interest expense increased YoY, underscoring financing constraints despite improving operating metrics .

Q&A Highlights
- The Q1 2026 earnings call transcript was not available from company IR or our document catalog; therefore, Q&A highlights and any call-specific guidance clarifications are unavailable based on primary sources [List: earnings-call-transcript unavailable for Q1; only Q4 transcripts listed 5/2/2025] [17] [18].
Estimates Context
- External consensus indicated modest beats: EPS -$0.40 vs -$0.45 and revenue $4.81M vs $4.70M for Q1 2026 .
- S&P Global (Capital IQ) consensus was unavailable via our data connector for STRM; as a result, we anchored comparisons to MarketBeat public estimate data and noted the SPGI limitation (mapping not available) [GetEstimates error: Missing CIQ mapping].
- Implication: modest estimate beats on both lines reduce near-term downward revision risk; however, financing costs and liquidity constraints could temper forward EPS trajectories absent transaction close .
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Near-term de-risking via MDaudit all-cash acquisition at $5.34 (~138% premium), with expected close in 3Q 2025; this likely caps upside near the deal price and shifts focus to closing certainty .
- Operationally, STRM is executing: revenue grew to $4.81M, SaaS mix reached ~70%, and adjusted EBITDA turned positive; these are important proof points of restructuring efficacy .
- Liquidity remains tight (cash $1.45M, LoC $2.0M), and interest expense rose to $0.54M; monitor covenant compliance and cash generation until transaction closes .
- Legacy revenue headwinds persist (maintenance/support and professional services), but continued eValuator/RevID wins and implementations support mix improvement toward SaaS .
- With consensus beats, estimate risk moderates; however, absent new guidance or call transcript, visibility remains limited—transaction process and regulatory milestones are the primary catalysts in the next 1-2 quarters .
- Medium-term thesis (if standalone): expanding SaaS ARR and positive adjusted EBITDA trajectory; yet balance sheet constraints and financing costs are material; as a private entity under MDaudit, strategic integration could unlock broader revenue cycle synergies .
