Irhythm Technologies (IRTC) reported Q2 revenue of $186.7mln, a 26% YoY growth, driven by core business strength and partnerships. The company raised its full-year revenue outlook and plans further product innovations and international expansions. Despite ongoing FDA remediation costs and slightly negative free cash flow, analysts raised price targets, citing robust revenue growth and improved EBITDA margins. The stock price increased by 15.7% in the last 24 hours.
Irhythm Technologies (IRTC) has reported robust second-quarter (Q2) 2025 earnings, with revenue reaching $186.7 million, marking a 26.1% year-over-year (YoY) growth. This strong performance was driven by the company's core business and strategic partnerships, particularly with Lucem Health, which aims to enhance arrhythmia detection using AI-driven solutions [1].
The company's gross margin improved to 71.2%, reflecting operational efficiencies and volume leverage. Despite an increase in adjusted operating expenses to $145.2 million, a 16% YoY increase, the company maintained a strong adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.4%, a 500 basis points improvement from the previous year [1].
However, IRTC continues to face challenges, including incremental legal and consulting fees related to FDA remediation efforts and DOJ subpoena activities, and potential negative impacts on gross margins from tariffs, estimated to be 20 to 40 basis points for the full year. The company expects to be slightly free cash flow negative for full year 2025 due to inventory buildup and infrastructure investments [1].
In response to these positive results, IRTC raised its full-year 2025 revenue guidance to $720 million to $730 million, and adjusted EBITDA margin guidance to 8% to 8.5% of revenues. The company expects the innovative channel partners' contribution to revenue to increase, with 40 accounts in active discussions expected to come online steadily over the year [1].
Analysts have responded positively to IRTC's performance, with several firms raising their price targets. Truist Financial analyst Richard Newitter maintained a "Buy" rating with a price target of $175.00, while Needham analyst David Saxon raised the price target to $180.00. Wells Fargo analyst Nathan Treybeck also maintained a "Buy" rating with a price target of $180.00 [2][3]. The stock price increased by 15.7% in the last 24 hours, reflecting investor confidence in the company's growth prospects.
Despite the positive outlook, corporate insider activity shows negative sentiment, with an increase in insiders selling shares over the past quarter. This could indicate concerns about the company's long-term trajectory [3].
