Electromed Inc (NYSEARCA:ELMD) delivered a robust fourth quarter performance, surpassing analyst expectations on both revenue and earnings per share. The medical device manufacturer reported Q4 FY2025 revenue of $17.4 million, exceeding the consensus estimate of $17.0 million. This represents a 17.3% year-over-year increase, marking another period of substantial growth for the company.
Earnings per share came in at $0.25, significantly higher than the $0.22 analysts had projected. This outperformance reflects both strong top-line growth and effective margin management. The company's gross margin expanded to 78.3% from 76.2% in the prior-year quarter, driven by higher revenue per device and increased sales volume.
Market Reaction and Performance
The market responded positively to these results, with shares gaining approximately 12.3% in after-hours trading following the announcement. This positive momentum builds on recent strength, with the stock having advanced 7.3% over the past month and 5.5% over the past two weeks. The significant after-hours movement suggests investors were particularly impressed with the earnings beat and the company's overall financial performance.
Full Year Highlights and Operational Performance
For the full fiscal year 2025, Electromed achieved record revenue of $64.0 million, representing 17% growth over the previous year. Net income reached $7.5 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.58 per diluted share in fiscal 2024. The company's direct homecare business remained the primary growth driver, with revenue increasing 15.7% to $57.3 million, while non-homecare revenue grew 28.8% to $6.7 million.
Operational efficiency improvements were evident throughout the year. The company maintained a strong balance sheet with $15.3 million in cash, $24.7 million in accounts receivable, and no debt. Operating cash flow reached a record $11.4 million, though the cash balance decreased by $0.8 million due to $10.0 million in share repurchases and $2.3 million in taxes paid on equity award settlements.
Strategic Initiatives and Market Position
President and CEO Jim Cunniff attributed the strong results to the company's diverse growth initiatives and direct sales model. Electromed continued to expand its sales team in high-return geographies while executing awareness campaigns for bronchiectasis, a condition the company believes is significantly underdiagnosed. The company also made strategic investments in operational infrastructure, including a manufacturing optimization plan expected to be completed in fiscal 2026 and a new CRM system to enhance sales efficiency.
Notably, Electromed was added to the Russell 2000 and 3000 indexes in June 2025, potentially increasing the stock's visibility among institutional investors. The company's annualized homecare revenue per weighted average direct sales representative reached $1,058,000, slightly above the target range of $900,000 to $1,000,000.
Forward Outlook and Analyst Expectations
While the press release did not provide specific forward guidance, analyst estimates for fiscal 2026 project revenue of $71.2 million and earnings metrics that suggest continued confidence in the company's growth trajectory. For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, analysts are forecasting revenue of $16.7 million.
The company's performance in raising awareness of bronchiectasis and expanding its sales infrastructure positions it well for continued growth in the airway clearance market. The completion of the manufacturing optimization plan in the coming year could provide additional capacity to support this expansion.
