TD Cowen 46th Annual Health Care Conference summary
4 Mar, 2026Business transformation and financial performance
Achieved 18% year-over-year revenue growth and reported adjusted EBITDA positive of $0.7 million in Q4, reflecting a successful transformation and cost structure improvement after divesting the desktop business.
Focused exclusively on handheld chemical detection tools for health, safety, and defense applications, driving operational efficiency and a streamlined sales channel.
Market outlook and growth drivers
Guidance for 2026 projects 15–20% revenue growth, driven by products VipIR, XplorIR, AVCAD, and MX908, with VipIR contributing over $3 million in Q4 and strong international and state/local demand.
End markets are propelled by the illicit drug crisis, proliferation of toxic industrial chemicals, and increased global defense spending, especially in response to geopolitical unrest.
State and local sales channels outperformed expectations, supported by robust funding from federal grants and a compelling product portfolio.
Product innovation and portfolio strategy
VipIR, launched in July, integrates Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, offering a unique solution for identifying unknown solids and liquids, with strong early adoption and international opportunities.
XplorIR and MX908 address gas detection and ultra-sensitive drug detection, respectively, with each product targeting distinct use cases and expanding the addressable market.
AVCAD partnership with Smiths Detection is expected to generate $2–3 million in 2026, with potential to reach $10 million annually at full production, pending government contract awards.
