Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $6.6 million, compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.5 million a year ago.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $21.6 million, unchanged from the prior year period.

First Quarter 2025 Segment Results

Specialty Nutrition Systems ("SNS")

SNS segment delivered above-market results in the first quarter of 2025, achieving net sales of $101.1 million, with 8.7% volume growth driven by continued strong demand across both our enteral feeding and neonate solutions categories. Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $21.1 million, or 20.9% of SNS net sales, due to higher volume and lower selling, general and administrative expenses.

Pain Management and Recovery ("PM&R")

Our PM&R segment net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $56.2 million, with volume growth offset by unfavorable currency effects and the effects of certain revenue streams that we strategically decided not to pursue this year. Net sales of radiofrequency ablation ("RFA") products grew 8.2%, reflecting momentum in RFA generator sales, which resulted in more procedures, especially in the ESENTEC and TRIDENT product lines. Net sales in surgical pain and recovery for the first quarter of 2025 were 9.3% lower than last year, in line with our expectations. Operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $0.2 million compared to an operating loss of $2.1 million last year due to lower selling, general and administrative expenses partially offset by lower manufacturing volume.

Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2025, we had $97.0 million of cash on hand as of March 31, 2025 compared to $107.7 million at year-end 2024. Cash flow from operations for the first quarter was an inflow of $25.7 million, compared to an outflow of $8.0 million a year ago, and free cash flow for the first quarter was an inflow of $19.0 million, compared to an outflow of $12.1 million a year ago. Total debt outstanding, net of unamortized discounts, was $107.4 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $134.7 million at December 31, 2024.

2025 Outlook

We are  maintaining our 2025 estimated revenue of between $665 million and $685 million. However, we are lowering our estimated adjusted diluted earnings per share to between $0.75 and $0.95, primarily due to the impact of recently announced tariffs.

The updated guidance on adjusted diluted earnings per share range reflects the Company's current estimate of the impact of the tariffs that are in effect or have been announced as of the time of this press release. The estimate assumes that management's mitigation plans will be able to mitigate the impact of tariffs through cost containment measures, the USMCA and other existing international agreements that allow for reduced or duty-free importation of products. The estimate also assumes that while tariffs on China-origin goods will be meaningfully higher than last year, they will be significantly below the 145% rate announced in April 2025. If the final tariffs are higher than we anticipate, or if we are unable to successfully mitigate the impact of tariffs, the adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be material. The ultimate impact from any tariffs remains uncertain and will depend on various factors, including the level of imports from China and Mexico, the level of tariff exemptions, the proportion of our components procured and our finished goods manufactured outside of the United States, and the amount, scope, nature, and timing of the tariffs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying tables include the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures:

• Adjusted net income;

• Adjusted diluted earnings per share;

• Adjusted gross and operating income;

• Adjusted income before taxes;

• Adjusted effective tax rate;

• Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses;

• Adjusted EBITDA; and

• Free cash flow.

These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items, as applicable, for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures:

• Certain acquisition and integration charges related to acquisitions;

• Expenses associated with restructuring and transformation activities, including the divestiture of the Company's respiratory health business;

• Expenses associated with European Union Medical Device Regulation ("EU MDR") compliance;

• The amortization of intangible assets associated with prior business acquisitions;

• The tax effects of certain adjusting items; and

• The positive or negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates during the year.

The Company provides these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information to its GAAP financial measures. Management and the Company's board of directors use net sales on a constant currency basis, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow to: (a) evaluate the Company's historical and prospective financial performance and its performance relative to its competitors, (b) allocate resources and (c) measure the operational performance of the Company's business units and their managers. Management also believes that the use of an adjusted effective tax rate provides improved insight into the tax effects of the Company's ongoing business operations.

Additionally, the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors will use certain of the non-GAAP financial measures when setting and assessing achievement of incentive compensation goals. These goals are based, in part, on the Company's net sales on a constant currency basis and adjusted EBITDA, which will be determined by excluding certain items that are used in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures.

Our competitors may define these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and as a result, our measure of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those of other companies. Items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, the financial statement data presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial tables.
