by · The Cerbat Gem

Inogen (NASDAQ:INGN – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings data on Thursday. The medical technology company reported ($0.56) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, missing the consensus estimate of ($0.14) by ($0.42), Zacks reports. Inogen had a negative return on equity of 13.17% and a negative net margin of 6.94%. The firm had revenue of $77.19 million for the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $92.25 million.

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

  • Third-quarter revenue from continuing operations was $77.2 million, down 2.4% year over year. U.S. sales grew 3.8%, but international sales fell 9% amid weaker European customer spending, a trend Inogen expects to continue into the fourth quarter.
  • U.S. sales returned to year-over-year growth for the first time since late 2024, supported by distributor demand and new products. Portable oxygen concentrator unit volume increased nearly 6%, with new products contributing about 250 basis points of growth.
  • Inogen completed the U.S. oxygen rental divestiture, with estimated cash consideration of up to $24.8 million expected in the first half of 2027. The company also announced a cost-reduction program targeting $20 million in annualized savings by the end of 2027; combined with the divestiture, savings are expected to exceed $40 million versus the pre-divestiture run rate.
  • GAAP loss from continuing operations was $14.8 million, including a $10.6 million non-cash goodwill impairment, and operating cash flow was negative $4.5 million. Inogen expects a full-year adjusted net loss of $7 million to $8 million and fourth-quarter revenue of $65 million to $68 million.
  • The company ended the quarter with $97.7 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash, with no debt outstanding. It increased its share repurchase authorization by $15 million to a total of $45 million.
