- De novo expansion continues with new centers in Idaho and Kansas City, targeting 8-10 new sites in 2026 and double-digit in 2027.
- Free cash flow nearly doubled to $121 million in Q2, driven by higher earnings and lower capital expenditures.

- Revenue per visit growth is expected to slow to around 3% for the remainder of the year, down from 4.6% in Q2.

- De novo centers contribute minimal revenue in the first 12-24 months, providing little near-term benefit.
- The company's guidance implies a potential slowdown in EBITDA margins in the second half due to seasonality.
- M&A pipeline is limited to mid-sized bolt-on acquisitions, with no large-scale deals like Nova expected.
- The company's reliance on state regulatory rate increases (e.g., California, Tennessee) creates uncertainty for future pricing.
- Employer services growth, while improved, remains below pre-pandemic levels, indicating potential economic headwinds.
- The company's leverage reduction was aided by timing of payments, which may not be sustainable in future quarters.
- The transition in CEO role, while planned, introduces execution risk during a period of strategic growth.
