Accendra Health Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Reduced Total Debt By $385 Million In Second Quarter

CEO Ed Pesicka Announces Intention To Retire By The End of 2026

RICHMOND, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Accendra Health, Inc. (NYSE: ACH) (the Company) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026. Unless otherwise noted, the results herein reflect the Company’s continuing operations, which represent what was previously the Patient Direct segment and certain functional operations.

“Throughout the second quarter, we moved farther along toward the complete separation from Owens & Minor while also putting a large commercial payor exit behind us. In the last six months, we have eliminated well over $125 million of annualized operating expense directly associated with this large commercial payor, and we are now beginning to reset our business for accelerated future growth. Additionally, we reduced outstanding debt by $385 million and comprehensively reset our debt maturity profile through our balance sheet optimization transaction which closed in June,” said Edward A. Pesicka, President & Chief Executive Officer, Accendra Health.

“We also saw continued progress on key growth initiatives and new strategic partnerships that have both topline and bottom line expansion opportunities that will begin to emerge in late 2026 and accelerate in 2027. These include the nationwide rollout of the Sleep Center of Excellence, new commercial agreements, and an increased emphasis on expense rationalization,” Pesicka concluded.

Earlier today, the Company announced in a separate press release that President & CEO Edward A. Pesicka has informed the Board of Directors that he intends to retire from his role by the end of 2026. Pesicka also plans to step down from the Board of Directors before the year’s end. The Board of Directors maintains a comprehensive succession planning process which has previously identified potential candidates with the capabilities to succeed Pesicka and will leverage that preparation to select his successor in the coming months. During this period, Pesicka will continue to lead the business, drive the execution of the Company’s strategic priorities, and facilitate a smooth transition to the Company’s next President and CEO once selected.

2026 Continuing Operations Financial Outlook

The company is updating its prior financial guidance for the full year 2026, summarized below.

Revenue: $2.45 billion – $2.55 billion

Adjusted EBITDA: $300 million – $320 million

Free cash flow: Breakeven to slightly positive

Although the Company provides guidance for free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA (which are non-GAAP financial measures), it is not able to forecast the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP amounts are not predictable, making it impracticable for the Company to forecast. Such elements include, but are not limited to, restructuring and acquisition charges which could have a significant and unpredictable impact on our GAAP results. As a result, no GAAP guidance or reconciliation of the Company’s free cash flow or adjusted EBITDA guidance is provided. The outlook is based on certain assumptions, including, but not limited to market conditions, consumer demand, supply chain stability, interest rates, and other factors that are subject to the risk factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
