Revenue and EBITDA trends remain under severe pressure from the large commercial payer exit and separation from Owens & Minor. The balance sheet restructuring (debt reduction, maturity extension) provides liquidity runway but doesn't fix the topline decline. Watch Q3/Q4 for signs of stabilization from new growth initiatives (Sleep Center of Excellence, new commercial agreements). The CEO retirement adds leadership uncertainty. With cash down to $7.7M and FCF negative, a capital raise may be needed later in 2026.
