On May 1, 2025, Streamline Health Solutions Inc (STRM, Financial) released its 8-K filing detailing the financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2024, which ended on January 31, 2025. Streamline Health Solutions Inc, a provider of data-driven solutions for healthcare organizations, focuses on improving financial performance through its Looking Glass platform, offering services such as coding, CDI, and financial management solutions.
Performance Overview and Challenges
Streamline Health Solutions Inc reported a total revenue of $4.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, falling short of the analyst estimate of $6.04 million. This represents a decline from the $5.4 million reported in the same quarter of the previous year. For the full fiscal year, revenue totaled $17.9 million, a decrease from $22.6 million in fiscal 2023. The decline in revenue was primarily due to SaaS non-renewals and reduced revenue from legacy contracts and professional services, partially offset by new bookings in the SaaS business.
The company faced a net loss of $2.1 million in the fourth quarter, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million in the same period last year. For the full fiscal year, the net loss was $10.2 million, an improvement from the $18.7 million loss in fiscal 2023, largely due to non-cash impairment charges in the previous year that did not recur.
