In other recent news, AMN Healthcare Services Inc. witnessed a mixed bag of financial results in its third-quarter earnings report. Despite a challenging healthcare staffing environment, the company reported a Q3 revenue of $688 million, surpassing guidance but down 19% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA fell 45% from the previous year to $74 million, and the company's net income was reported at $7 million. However, segments such as Physician Leadership Solutions and Locum Tenens showed growth, increasing 13% and 26% year-over-year, respectively.

Furthermore, AMN Healthcare's fourth-quarter revenue guidance exceeded the consensus, despite reflecting a weaker performance due to an unusually high benefit from labor strikes. This led BMO Capital Markets to adjust its outlook on the company, reducing its price target to $46.00 from the previous $50.00, while maintaining an Outperform rating.

In addition to these developments, AMN Healthcare has introduced Workwise, a new technology platform, and is optimistic about future growth opportunities, including international nurse placements. These recent developments underscore the company's potential to navigate the current market challenges and prepare for growth.
