Last earnings call, Aug 6, 2026 AI summary

What they said
Artivion reported Q2 2026 constant currency revenue growth of 9% and adjusted EBITDA growth of 7% year-over-year. On-X revenues surged 18% and stent grafts grew 12% on a constant currency basis. Key milestones include FDA PMA approval for AMDS hybrid prosthesis and completion of the Endospan acquisition, adding the NEXUS Aortic Arch Stent Graft System to create a complete three-pronged aortic arch portfolio.
Guidance
Full U.S. commercial launch of NEXUS system targeted for January 2027, addressing an approximately $100 million chronic aortic dissection market. Management expects AMDS set sales to accelerate following PMA approval, which eliminates the IRB review process barrier for new accounts.
