Advanced Imaging growth drivers and expectations, Medicare reimbursement outlook, AI and EBCD program adoption, M&A strategy and pipeline, and AI revenue and profitability expectations are the key contradictions discussed in RadNet's latest 2025Q1 earnings call.



Impact of Weather and Wildfires:
- estimated that severe winter weather conditions and wildfires in the Northeast, Houston, and Southern California resulted in a negative impact of approximately $22 million in revenue and $15 million in EBITDA for Q1 2025.
- The impact was confined to January and February, with business recovering in March, April, and May.

Advanced Imaging Growth:
- The percentage of procedural volume from Advanced Imaging increased to 26.9% in Q1 2025, up from 25.7% in Q1 2024.
- This growth is attributed to capital investment in Advanced Imaging equipment and a reflection of industry trends.

PET/CT Volume Increase:
- Aggregate PET/CT volumes increased by 22.9% in Q1 2025, driven by the growth of newer prostate and brain procedures.
- The increase was less affected by weather conditions due to the-less selective nature of these procedures.

Digital Health Segment Growth:
- segment revenue increased by 31.1% to $19.2 million in Q1 2025, with AI revenue growing by 33.3%.
- The growth was driven by EBCD adoption and intercompany software revenue.

Financial Guidance Adjustments:
- RadNet increased its revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges due to strong procedural and revenue growth trends since March.
- The adjustments reflect the recovery from the weather and fire impacts, as well as the continued implementation of operational improvements.
