Executive summary

  • Q1 2026 results aligned with expectations, marking the first full quarter as a standalone home-based care company after separation from Owens & Minor, with transition services and separation activities progressing on schedule.

  • Achieved Q1 2026 net revenue of $628M, down from $674M in Q1 2025, reflecting the impact of a terminated large commercial payor contract and changes in collection rates and volume growth.

  • Substantial completion of exit from a large commercial payer, with a smooth handover and minimized transition costs.

  • Announced a $1.5 billion balance sheet optimization transaction with creditor commitments to strengthen liquidity, extend maturities, and reduce leverage.

  • Strategic initiatives in sleep therapy and operational streamlining are driving growth and efficiency.

Financial highlights

  • Net revenue for Q1 2026 was $627.8 million, down from $673.9 million in Q1 2025, with revenue down 6.8% year-over-year but up 1% excluding a major payer exit.

  • Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2026 was $58 million, down from $96 million in Q1 2025, in line with expectations.

  • Free cash flow for Q1 2026 was negative $2 million, reflecting typical seasonal softness and significant one-time items.

  • Extraordinary payments included $19 million to the IRS and $22 million in legal and advisory fees for the P&HS divestiture.

  • Net debt remained flat at $1.77 billion; $337 million in cash and $195 million available under the revolving credit facility.

Outlook and guidance

  • Affirmed 2026 outlook for revenue and adjusted EBITDA, with expectations for greater revenue growth and at least 65% of adjusted EBITDA in Q3 and Q4.

  • FY26E Adjusted EBITDA (minus patient service equipment capex) projected at $218M, supporting operating stability and growth investments.

  • Annualized cash interest expense expected to increase by about $40 million due to refinancing, with half impacting the second half of 2026.

  • Sustained free cash flow profile expected to provide liquidity and strategic flexibility.

  • Outlook based on assumptions regarding market conditions, consumer demand, supply chain stability, and interest rates.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
