- Canadian medical growth is expected to face headwinds from Veterans Affairs reimbursement changes, and management said the business may not maintain the same growth rate seen in fiscal 2026. The company is trying to offset the impact through pricing, mix changes, and patient retention efforts.
- Management struck an optimistic tone on international growth, especially Europe, citing strong sequential improvement and 68% year-over-year Q4 international revenue growth.
