Lumexa Imaging Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results

RALEIGH, N.C., Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lumexa Imaging (Nasdaq: LMRI), one of the nation’s largest providers of outpatient imaging services, today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“In Q3, we advanced our business in several meaningful ways while executing against our strategy. Advanced modalities reached a record high as a percent of our volumes, and our newer de novo cohorts continue to ramp on plan. We are actively opening three new de novo centers and are on pace to achieve our goal for 8–10 new center openings this year,” said Caitlin Zulla, Chief Executive Officer of Lumexa Imaging. “These achievements mark progress toward our long-term growth plans, and that progress is translating into strong, durable cash generation. We enter the fourth quarter confident in our ability to deliver for patients, partners, and shareholders.”

“We are leading a transformation in healthcare – delivering high-quality imaging in more convenient settings, more quickly and at meaningfully lower cost through our wholly owned centers and alongside health system partners, improving clinical and financial outcomes.”

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

All comparisons are to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, unless otherwise noted

• Revenue growth of 5.0% consolidated and 7.7% system-wide; consolidated revenues of $272.0 million as compared to $258.9 million
• Advanced outpatient volume growth of 7.9% consolidated and 8.1% system-wide
• Same-center advanced outpatient volume growth of 6.6% consolidated and 6.8% system-wide
• Advanced procedure mix of 31.8% consolidated and 38.2% system-wide, up 127 and 145 basis points, respectively
• Net income of $7.2 million as compared to net loss of $3.5 million
• Adjusted EBITDA of $62.6 million as compared to $59.1 million; and a 23.0% Adjusted EBITDA margin as compared to 22.8%
• GAAP EPS of $0.07 per share and Adjusted EPS of $0.26 per share

2026 Full Year Outlook:

Lumexa Imaging provided an update on its guidance for the full year ended December 31, 2026.

• Reiterating full-year 2026 consolidated revenue guidance of $1.045 billion to $1.097 billion.
• Narrowing its full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $236 million to $240 million, from its prior range of $235 million to $241 million. The midpoint of $238 million is unchanged. This includes approximately $7 million of public company costs that were not incurred in 2025. (At the midpoint of guidance, the addition of these costs lowers Adjusted EBITDA growth for 2026 versus 2025 from 7% to 4%)
• Raising guidance for Adjusted EPS to $0.86 to $0.90 from $0.71 to $0.77 per share, driven by lower assumed effective tax rate.

Lumexa Imaging Earnings Conference Call and Webcast
Lumexa Imaging will host a conference call to discuss its third quarter 2026 results on November 10, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. ET. The call can be accessed via live audio webcast online at ir.lumexaimaging.com. A replay of the webcast will be available at the same link shortly after the completion of the call and will remain available for approximately one year.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. We use  Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing our business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations and financial performance; (ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations; (iii) review and assess the operating performance of our management team; and (iv) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operations and annual operating budgets. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, please see below.

We have not reconciled our Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EPS guidance to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because we do not and are not able to provide guidance for those GAAP measures due to the uncertainty and potential variability of certain reconciling items, including transaction costs, severance and executive recruiting. Because such items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide the corresponding reconciliations. However, such reconciling items could have a significant impact on our future results.
