In light of the recent developments, Truist Securities has revised its adjusted EBITDA estimates for RadNet for the years 2024 through 2026. The new estimates are set at $280.4 million for 2024, an increase from the prior estimate of $274.0 million.

In other recent news, RadNet Inc. reported record-breaking financial performance for the third quarter of 2024. The company saw a significant year-over-year revenue growth of 14.7%, totaling $461.1 million, and an adjusted EBITDA increase of 27.2%, reaching $73.7 million. However, RadNet's net income experienced a decline, falling to $3.2 million from $17.5 million in the same quarter of the previous year, due to one-time expenses such as interest-rate swap losses and costs associated with opening new facilities.

The company's Imaging Center segment and Digital Health segment's AI revenue contributed significantly to the revenue growth. As part of its expansion strategy, RadNet opened five new facilities and has raised its full-year financial guidance based on these robust Q3 results.

In addition to the financial results, the company is actively developing 15 new projects for 2025, and collaborations with ONRAD and GE Healthcare are in progress to enhance AI-powered imaging solutions. Despite the fall in net income due to one-time expenses, these recent developments underscore RadNet's commitment to growth and innovation in the diagnostic imaging sector.
