2025 Revenue Guidance Revised Down; Strategic Focus on Margins and Growth
AirSculpt Technologies (NASDAQ: AIRS) reported third quarter results showing a decline in revenue and wider losses year-over-year, but management remains focused on growth opportunities, expense discipline, and leveraging market shifts in the aesthetics industry. The company revised its full-year 2025 guidance downward, reflecting headwinds but also its confidence in cost control and a strong balance sheet.
Key Financial Results Highlight Lower Revenue and Case Volume
For the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, revenue dropped to $35.0 million, down 17.8% from the same period in 2024. Case volume fell 15.2%, and the company recorded a net loss of $9.5 million, wider than the $6.0 million loss a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA, a measure favored by management for operating performance, fell to $3.0 million from $4.7 million last year. Management cited timing and one-time expenses, including asset impairments related to a technology project and London facility closure, as notable impacts.
| Metric | Q3 2025 | Q3 2024 | 9M 2025 | 9M 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue ($M) | 35.00 | 42.55 | 118.38 | 141.17 |
| Net Loss ($M) | 9.51 | 6.04 | 12.95 | 3.22 |
| Case Volume | 2,780 | 3,277 | 9,248 | 10,972 |
| Adjusted EBITDA ($M) | 3.04 | 4.67 | 12.63 | 18.87 |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin (%) | 8.7 | 11.0 | 10.7 | 13.4 |
Expense Control, Debt Reduction, and Liquidity Stand Out
Despite softer top-line numbers, AirSculpt underscored its focus on discipline and debt reduction. Operating expenses declined on a nine-month basis. The company generated $5.6 million in operating cash flow year-to-date and reduced total debt by $18 million, with $5.4 million in cash and $5.0 million in credit facility capacity at quarter end. As a result, AirSculpt was compliant with bank covenants and maintains a healthy liquidity position for the current market environment.
Margin Improvement Efforts and Same-Store Trends Offer Upside Potential
Management pointed to improving same-store sales trends heading into the fourth quarter and expects that cost control will help expand EBITDA margins year-over-year. The revised full-year guidance calls for approximately $153 million in revenue and $16 million in Adjusted EBITDA—both at the lower bound of previous projections, signaling continued pressure but also prudent expectations for the rest of 2025.
| 2025 Outlook | Current | Previous Range |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue ($M) | 153 | 160-170 |
| Adjusted EBITDA ($M) | 16 | N/A |
Market Strategy: Aesthetics Meets GLP-1
CEO Yogi Jashnani referenced a structural shift in the aesthetics market, largely influenced by the rising use of GLP-1 weight-loss medications, which may boost demand for complementary body contouring. AirSculpt plans to align its strategy to benefit from this broader market opportunity. Leadership additions, such as the hiring of a new CFO with public company experience, also point to readiness for a period of transition and opportunity.
Takeaway: Watch for Execution on Cost Control and Same-Store Performance
While AirSculpt’s financial results reflect challenges from both timing and operational headwinds, management’s cost discipline, liquidity improvements, and attention to new market trends could set up the company for more stable performance ahead. Investors may want to monitor whether improving same-store trends and margin gains continue through year-end and if management capitalizes on growth opportunities at the intersection of aesthetics and wellness trends.
