The earnings call presents a mixed picture: positive organic growth in Specialty Nutrition Systems and RF ablation, but challenges like the HA divestiture, goodwill impairment, and negative free cash flow. Adjusted EPS and EBITDA show steady performance, yet tariff impacts and cost pressures persist. The Q&A reveals management's confidence in overcoming divestiture impacts, but lacks detailed guidance. The absence of a new partnership or strong guidance adjustment leads to a neutral sentiment, with no significant catalysts for a strong stock movement in either direction.
