In other recent news, Artivion Inc. reported its fourth-quarter 2024 earnings, revealing a revenue of $97.3 million, which fell short of the forecasted $100.82 million. The revenue miss was attributed to a cybersecurity breach that impacted sales by approximately $4.5 million. Despite the revenue shortfall, Artivion’s adjusted EBITDA for the quarter exceeded expectations, coming in at $17.6 million, surpassing the anticipated $17 million. The full-year revenue for 2024 totaled $388.5 million, slightly below the guidance range of $389 million to $396 million. Looking ahead, Artivion projects 2025 revenue to be between $420 million and $435 million, indicating an increase of 10% to 14%, with adjusted EBITDA expected to reach between $83 million and $91 million. Stifel, Needham, and JMP Securities have all maintained a Buy rating on Artivion, although Stifel and Needham have lowered their price targets to $30 and $32, respectively, due to the recent financial performance and ongoing impact of the cyber incident. Despite these challenges, Artivion anticipates a robust recovery in 2025, supported by strong growth in Latin America and Asia Pacific markets.
