LifeMD (NASDAQ:LFMD) Issues Quarterly Earnings Results

LifeMD (NASDAQ:LFMD) posted its quarterly earnings results on Thursday. The company reported ($0.11) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, beating analysts’ consensus estimates of ($0.14) by $0.03, FiscalAI reports. The company had revenue of $44.63 million for the quarter, compared to analyst estimates of $48.80 million. LifeMD had a negative return on equity of 168.23% and a net margin of 0.10%.

Here are the key takeaways from LifeMD’s conference call:

• Third-quarter revenue was $44.6 million, below guidance of $48 million–$51 million and down about 7% year over year. LifeMD cut its 2026 revenue outlook to $188 million–$191 million from $205.5 million–$212.5 million and now expects an adjusted EBITDA loss of $10.6 million–$12.6 million.
• LifeMD finalized arrangements with Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk to fulfill and ship branded GLP-1 medications through its pharmacy, potentially adding revenue and gross profit dollars from prescriptions it previously fulfilled through third parties. Management cautioned that gross margin percentage will decline as branded-drug revenue is reported on a gross basis.
• Management said customer acquisition cost fell 40% from its June peak, while the share of new Weight Management patients choosing multi-month plans rose from about 25% to 85%. Active subscribers were up 13% year over year and nearly flat sequentially despite a 34% quarter-over-quarter reduction in selling and marketing expense.
• The AT&T collaboration is live in 11 states, reaching about 29 million customers, with nationwide rollout expected in January; the company also plans to market its enterprise offering to employers. Management described these as lower-cost growth opportunities, but said they were not included in fourth-quarter guidance and will report traction as they scale.
• LifeMD ended the quarter with $21.9 million in cash and no debt, then closed a $12.5 million term loan to support working-capital needs. It is targeting a 25% reduction in operating expenses by the first quarter of 2027 and said it expects roughly 30% revenue and patient growth in 2027 on about the same fixed overhead.
