While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention.
Mayank Tandon (Needham): Asked about the timing and scale of upcoming revenue from new deals. CEO Savneet Singh replied that the impact of these wins would become more visible in the second half of the year, leading to both revenue and EBITDA expansion.
Stephen Sheldon (William Blair): Inquired about the visibility for organic ARR growth in the coming year. Singh stated that while it is too early to forecast 2026 precisely, the company feels confident due to recent multi-product wins and a strong sales pipeline.
Will Nance (Goldman Sachs): Sought clarity on foreign exchange impacts to ARR and revenue. CFO Bryan Menar confirmed that most of the FX exposure is due to Australian and New Zealand operations, and that about 20% of ARR is now international.
Charles Nabhan (Stephens): Asked about the gross margin impact of the growing Payments business. Singh explained that Payments remains margin-dilutive but is improving, and still accounts for less than 10% of revenue.
George Sutton (Craig-Hallum): Questioned the evolution of customer needs from single-product RFPs to broader suite adoption. Singh confirmed the trend toward combined offerings and noted that more customers are seeking integrated solutions rather than standalone products.
Looking ahead, the StockStory team will be monitoring (1) the pace at which Tier 1 customer rollouts like Burger King and Popeyes translate into reported revenue growth, (2) the degree of success achieved in cross-selling and integrating new product modules across the Operator and Engagement Cloud platforms, and (3) the company's ability to maintain margin expansion as the mix shifts toward higher-value subscription and payments revenue. Progress on new product launches and resilience against macroeconomic and tariff-related risks will also be important indicators.

Why Nektar Therapeutics Stock Dived by 3% Today
The company announced it closed its latest capital-raising effort. This took the form of a nearly 5-million strong, secondary share issue. 10 stocks we like better than Nektar Therapeutics › Nektar Therapeutics (NASDAQ: NKTR) saw its stock price erode on Thursday, following the company's closing of a secondary stock issue. Investors gave the company a thumbs-down on the news by selling out of its shares, leaving it with a 3% loss at the close of trading. Meanwhile, the benchmark S&P 500 index ticked up on the day, rising by 0.8%. Just after market hours on Wednesday, Nektar announced that it completed that new share flotation. The clinical-stage biotech sold slightly more than 4.89 million shares of its common stock. Within that number were 638,298 that were sold to the underwriters of the issue. Collectively, those entities fully exercised their option to buy Nektar stock. The gross proceeds of the issue, which was priced at $23.50 per share, amounted to roughly $115 million. Nektar wrote that it aims to deploy the new funds for "general corporate purposes," which might include drug development and manufacturing, and research and development activities. As often happens with secondary share flotations, particularly in the frequently cash-hungry biotech space, this one is notably dilutive to existing shareholders. Prior to this issue, Nektar had slightly more than 12.4 million common shares outstanding. So that nearly 5 million share-count addition is going to make a difference -- and not in a positive way. At least the money is being raised by a business with potential. Relatively speaking, Nektar has quite a few pipeline projects in development. Its leading one, rezpegaldesleukin, recently tested quite well for treating moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, a skin disorder. That said, the new shares are weighing on the company, and investors are probably worried that more equity offerings are coming, hence more dilution. While a company's share count shouldn't be the only consideration when evaluating a stock, it does matter, and this latest one from Nektar has sparked concern.

Senate GOP passes Trump's ‘big, beautiful bill' after scramble to win over holdouts, setting up high-stakes House fight
Senate Republicans narrowly approved President Donald Trump's sweeping tax and spending cuts package Tuesday after a dayslong grind to secure the support of key holdouts. Some of the hardest work may still lie ahead, however, as Trump and GOP leaders must now muscle the bill through the deeply divided House. With the chamber set to return to Washington on Wednesday, Republicans expect Trump will need to lean heavily on the House GOP to back his plan. Weeks of bitter GOP infighting in the Senate culminated in a standoff with critical GOP swing votes, with leadership unable to win the support of Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Rand Paul of Kentucky — despite last-minute changes to the legislation. Vice President JD Vance was ultimately called in to break the legislative logjam and cast the tie-breaking 51st vote. Both Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson have been working furiously to deliver Trump his first major legislative win, so the president can sign it in a special ceremony on the Fourth of July. The bill, which the Congressional Budget Office estimated Tuesday night would cost $3.4 trillion, would unlock tax cuts and increase funding for national security, partly paid for by the biggest cut to the federal social safety net in decades. Senate Republicans hurtled toward a final vote on the bill Tuesday after more than 24 hours of painstaking, overnight negotiations over changes to the package. The vote at times appeared to be in flux, and Thune was routinely measured in his responses to reporters when asked whether he had won the needed support from his conference. 'I'm of Scandinavian heritage. Always a bit of a realist. So we'll see what happens,' he said just ahead of the vote. Sen. Lindsey Graham quipped to reporters he believed the bill was going to fail 12 different times in the last 24 hours. 'Vampires are hard to kill. This bill is hard to kill. But there were a couple of times when I thought it was slipping away,' the South Carolina Republican told CNN. But ultimately, he said, 'We didn't want to fail. I think that motivated everybody.' Anticipating some GOP defections, Vance arrived on Capitol Hill earlier Tuesday morning, ready to tie-break on several final changes to the legislation, including the massive package of negotiated changes from Senate GOP leadership known as the 'substitute' amendment. The burst of movement from the Senate GOP midmorning Tuesday came after a record 'vote-a-rama' that featured hours of intense negotiating on and off the floor between Thune, Vance and the GOP holdouts, including Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. Vance had been the latest senior Republican to try to personally woo Murkowski to back the massive agenda package. GOP leaders had spent days lobbying the Alaska centrist with a lineup of policy sweeteners catered specifically to her state. On Tuesday, she suggested they finally reached a deal. 'It's in the hands of the people that operate the copy machine,' Murkowski told reporters when asked whether the vote was in with the Senate parliamentarian. Earlier, the parliamentarian — the chamber rules referee — determined that a food stamps-related carveout meant to win over Murkowski could remain in the legislation without running afoul of the chamber's strict budget rules, while ruling that a provision meant to change federal cost sharing for Medicaid to benefit states like Alaska and Hawaii was not compliant. Senate GOP leaders made several last-minute changes to controversial provisions in their megabill in hopes of winning over more votes, according to a draft obtained by CNN. The latest version of the president's agenda package doubles the size of the rural hospital fund sought by centrists to $50 billion, which would be doled out between 2026 and 2030, two years earlier than initially planned. The Senate's original language would have created a $25 billion fund for rural health providers, which senators such as Collins and Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri said was inadequate. A leading hospital industry group also warned that the Medicaid cuts in the bill would have an impact on all Americans' ability to access health care. In another notable change to the Medicaid provisions, Republicans dropped a measure that would have penalized states that have expanded Medicaid and offer state-funded coverage to undocumented immigrants. Some 14 states plus the District of Columbia cover at least some undocumented residents through these initiatives. The original bill would have reduced the federal matching funds that expansion states receive from 90% to 80%. The latest version also removes the ban on gender-affirming care in Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program. The House-passed bill does not include a rural hospital fund, but it does contain the two Medicaid provisions on undocumented immigrants and gender-affirming care. The Senate also tweaked the controversial provider tax measure, clarifying that it applies to such taxes levied by both states and local governments. However, the bill would still cap the level of taxes that expansion states or local governments in those states could impose on certain providers — namely, hospitals — at 3.5%, down from the current 6%. And it puts a moratorium on new provider taxes for all states and local governments. 'This makes it significantly better,' Rep. Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey told CNN in a phone interview, adding that he pushed hard for the change, which he said would dramatically help providers in his state. 'It's a very big deal for the hospitals.' However, Medicaid policy experts caution that adding the local government language would not benefit hospitals. 'The technical language changes just clarify that the damaging provider tax restrictions in the bill apply to both states and local governments using these provider taxes to finance Medicaid. I don't see how that's a benefit to hospitals,' said Edwin Park, research professor at the McCourt School of Public Policy at Georgetown University. All states except Alaska, and some local governments, levy at least one provider tax and use the revenue to boost provider rates, finance their Medicaid expansion and fund health-related initiatives, among other things. But some Republicans claim the provider tax is a scheme by states to get more federal matching funds. The new version of the package also delays the requirement that states with high payment error rates start contributing to the cost of food stamp benefits. The original measure would make states with error rates of 6% or higher pick up between 5% and 15% of the tab. But the states with the largest error rates would get another year or two to implement the provision, said Ty Jones Cox, vice president for food assistance policy at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Ten states, including Alaska, have error rates that would qualify for the delay. This provision benefits Murkowski, who also won changes in the work requirement for food stamps. Alaska, as well as Hawaii, got two other carveouts: One would allow these states to waive all work requirements based on high unemployment rates. For other states, the package limits such waivers. The other carveout would allow either state to request a temporary waiver for residents from the work requirement if the US Department of Agriculture secretary determines the state is making a 'good faith' effort to implement the mandate. But the amendment removed the two Medicaid provisions aimed at Alaska that the parliamentarian ruled did not meet with the rules of budget reconciliation, which Republicans are using to get the package through the Senate without any Democratic support. Despite voting for the bill, Murkowski told reporters she is not happy with it and hopes the House sends it back over to the Senate with changes. Asked by CNN why she decided to support passage given her problems with it, she replied: 'Because we have two options here, right? Kill it and it's gone.' 'But I think there is more that needs to be done and I'm not done,' she said, calling this 'the most difficult and agonizing legislative 24 hour period that I have encountered.' Also, in the latest version of the bill, Republicans removed a last-minute excise tax on wind and solar projects that energy experts and business groups said would have been a potential 'killer' to the renewable energy industry. The tax would have increased the price of new wind and solar projects and significantly decreased the amount of clean energy put on the US electrical grid. Vance, who cast the tie-breaking vote to push Trump's policy agenda over the finish line in the Senate, was the last person to meet with Murkowski before she ultimately tipped her favor toward the bill, a source familiar told CNN. In the meeting, Vance thanked her for being a team player despite her concerns with the legislation, the source added. Now, the narrowly divided House will need to pass the Senate's exact version of the bill, though dozens of the chamber's Republicans dislike it. Two have already said they will oppose even bringing it to a vote on the floor — conservative Reps. Ralph Norman and Andy Harris. 'I want to go back to the drawing board' Norman told CNN. House GOP leaders have been privately telegraphing to the Senate for weeks that it should have simply adopted the House version — rather than largely rewritten it. Still, the House plans to vote Wednesday on the measure. House GOP leaders have made it clear they are not looking to make changes. Multiple GOP sources said they believed they could meet the president's end-of-week deadline, though it's a rapid turnaround for House lawmakers, who are scattered across the country for the holiday recess. The House Rules Committee set the process in motion Tuesday afternoon, taking up the Senate's version of the bill. The meeting could last hours. Norman is on the panel, but his opposition, even combined with all Democrats on the committee, wouldn't be enough to keep the bill from proceeding to the floor. Behind the scenes, some House Republicans are privately discussing whether to block the bill from coming to the floor at all, which they could achieve by voting down the so-called rule vote that comes before final passage in the House, according to two people familiar with the discussions. But it's not yet clear whether they can withstand pressure from Johnson and Trump himself. So far, multiple key House lawmakers are refusing to say how they'll commit to the Senate bill. The House is expected to return Wednesday for a final vote, and Johnson believes he can land the votes, but it will take a ferocious whip effort — and likely help from the president.

Remote Pharmacy Releases 2025 Availability Update on GLP-1 Weight Loss Solutions and Consumer Interest in Semaglutide & Tirzepatide
In this 2025 availability update, Remote Pharmacy highlights the expanded access to non-branded GLP-1-based weight management options, including semaglutide and tirzepatide compounds. The release explores the evolving role of compounded therapeutics, shifts in consumer behavior toward remote prescribing, and how new formulations align with the growing interest in safe, physician-directed care for weight management. Bowling Green, July 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Section 1 – Introduction In 2025, the discourse surrounding prescription weight loss treatments is gaining momentum, fueled by increasing public awareness of GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide. Developed initially as antidiabetic agents, these medications are now at the forefront of interest in physician-monitored, non-surgical weight management protocols. The surge in online traffic related to terms like 'GLP-1 weight loss treatment,' 'semaglutide injections for weight loss,' and 'tirzepatide therapy' is a clear sign of a cultural shift towards science-based, regulated solutions over unverified or fad-driven alternatives. This evolution is taking place alongside a broader redefinition of healthcare delivery itself. As more consumers seek accessible, discreet, and flexible care models, telehealth platforms like Remote Pharmacy have become essential vehicles for accessing physician-guided prescription options from the comfort of their own homes, particularly in areas such as metabolic health, where continuity and personalization are crucial. Remote Pharmacy, as a telehealth platform, facilitates the connection between patients and U.S.-licensed physicians, ensuring safe and convenient access to prescription-based weight management options. Today's health-conscious consumer is no longer swayed solely by brand name recognition or conventional in-office protocols. Instead, there is a growing interest in non-branded GLP-1 compounds, compounded semaglutide with vitamin B12, and other clinically reviewed alternatives available through compliant pharmacy networks. This shift in consumer behavior reflects a broader desire for affordability, customization, and most importantly, licensed oversight, rather than just rapid results or commercial hype. As the weight management segment continues to evolve, individuals are increasingly seeking information-driven, regulated access to therapies that align with their long-term lifestyle goals. Remote Pharmacy's platform, which delivers professional review, pharmacist fulfillment, and secure, HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, is instrumental in shaping the future of prescription-based weight management. It meets modern expectations of care, offering a unique blend of convenience, safety, and personalization. Section 2 – Product/Company Update Remote Pharmacy announces continued nationwide availability of its compounded GLP-1 formulations, including semaglutide and tirzepatide-based treatments, for eligible adults pursuing physician-directed weight management. The platform provides 100% virtual consultations, with prescriptions evaluated and dispensed by U.S.-licensed healthcare professionals through independent third-party medical groups and pharmacies. For informational access to physician-reviewed compounded GLP-1 treatment pathways, visit Patients may begin the intake process through a secure digital health questionnaire, reviewed by an independent medical provider. Instead, it offers a digital platform that enables individuals to access healthcare consultations and prescription fulfillment via licensed providers. All medical decisions and prescriptions are managed exclusively by third-party providers. Treatments are tailored to individual medical history, intake forms, and professional review. Doses are determined case-by-case — without tiered pricing or promotional variance — and may include compounded semaglutide with vitamin B12. Solutions are sourced from 503A-certified U.S. pharmacies and shipped discreetly to approved patients within 3–5 business days. Remote Pharmacy's offerings include multiple GLP-1 options, such as: Compounded Semaglutide injections Tirzepatide in dissolvable or oral formats Non-branded GLP-1 alternatives Each option is reviewed through a secure medical intake form and physician consultation, with no video calls required. All services are conducted in compliance with HIPAA privacy protocols and applicable telehealth regulations. Section 3 – Consumer Trend Overview Increased search interest in 'prescription weight loss,' 'GLP-1 medication for weight loss,' and 'semaglutide vs tirzepatide' reflects a changing consumer mindset. Rather than pursuing rapid or unregulated solutions, more individuals are seeking medical oversight, scientific transparency, and safe pathways to long-term metabolic support. Recent data suggests that U.S. adults are becoming more familiar with terms like 'GLP-1 agonist,' 'non-branded weight loss medication,' and 'compounded semaglutide,' signaling both awareness and demand. Online conversations have also shifted in tone — away from one-size-fits-all products and toward medically supervised approaches that offer privacy, customization, and consistency. This growing awareness coincides with a broader preference for digital-first health models. Consumers increasingly value asynchronous consultations, flexible intake processes, and delivery options that do not require pharmacy pickups or clinic visits. As part of that evolution, patients are actively comparing GLP-1-based options based on ingredient profile, route of administration, and physician access — not brand loyalty or promotional claims. Platforms offering a range of prescription-based GLP-1 treatments, such as semaglutide injections or oral tirzepatide, are gaining visibility among adults seeking solutions that feel medically grounded yet logistically simple. Search behavior shows a rise in queries for 'telehealth weight loss prescriptions,' 'GLP-1 compounded injections,' and 'custom weight loss plan with doctor review,' indicating demand for precision over generalization. Remote Pharmacy's infrastructure — built to support U.S.-licensed prescribers, pharmacy fulfillment, and HIPAA-compliant access — reflects the priorities of this consumer base. For informational access to compounded GLP-1 treatment pathways, visit Learn more about how Remote Pharmacy facilitates HIPAA-compliant access to GLP-1 compounds prescribed by licensed providers. Individuals interested in physician-directed weight management options can review eligibility via the Remote Pharmacy patient portal. The platform offers informational access without marketing pressure and provides a structure that places clinical review at the center of the weight loss conversation. Section 4 – Ingredient/Technology Spotlight Semaglutide and tirzepatide remain the most searched GLP-1-related compounds in 2025, as both have gained prominence in the context of non-branded, physician-prescribed weight management protocols. Each compound offers a distinct pharmacological profile and delivery pathway, with compounded options tailored by licensed prescribers based on an individual's medical history and treatment eligibility. Semaglutide is frequently cited in clinical literature for its role in regulating blood glucose levels and modulating satiety signals. In a compounded format, it may be paired with vitamin B12 for supportive wellness alignment. Vitamin B12, while not a therapeutic agent for weight management, is often included in wellness-focused regimens due to its role in energy metabolism and its support for overall nutrient balance, which can be beneficial in a weight management program. Tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, discussed in recent studies for its role in regulating multiple metabolic pathways. Compounded tirzepatide is available in non-injection formats, such as oral drops and dissolvable tablets, broadening access for individuals seeking alternatives to injectable protocols. This non-branded availability is subject to regulatory compounding oversight and individual prescription review. Remote Pharmacy's affiliated providers may prescribe compounded versions of these agents after reviewing the patient's submitted intake and determining suitability. All ingredients are compounded in 503A-certified pharmacies and dispensed in accordance with U.S. pharmacy laws. No weight loss outcomes are implied or guaranteed. The use of semaglutide, tirzepatide, or B12 is guided solely by licensed medical discretion and the individual's clinical profile. These formulations are not substitutes for clinical treatment of obesity or metabolic disease and are intended for eligible adults within a physician-directed care model. Section 5 – User Journey and Market Tone Public discussions around GLP-1 weight management increasingly focus on the patient journey — from eligibility screening to virtual prescribing and pharmacy coordination. Consumers are gravitating toward models that offer simplicity, discretion, and clinical legitimacy, particularly when exploring treatments like compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide under the guidance of a medical professional. Across forums and healthcare threads, prospective patients frequently express interest in secure, asynchronous platforms that enable them to initiate care at their convenience. As video visits are not required, many find value in the ability to complete a private intake form and receive prescription approval after physician review, especially when compared to in-office consultations that may feel rushed or limited in scope. Remote Pharmacy's technology-enabled model reflects this evolving preference. Individuals who qualify are supported by licensed third-party providers who manage all medical determinations, including treatment selection and dosing. A secure patient portal offers real-time access to prescription updates, order history, and support options. This structure reinforces patient confidence without exerting promotional influence, thereby placing the decision-making authority in the hands of licensed professionals. Many adults exploring GLP-1 prescription options report prioritizing ease of access, pharmacy reliability, and compliance with U.S. telehealth regulations. There is growing rejection of platforms that rely on promotional tactics, and increased demand for those that deliver transparent terms, fixed pricing, and optionality in format, such as oral tirzepatide or weekly compounded semaglutide injections. Rather than framing the journey as product-first, patient narratives increasingly reflect a process-focused mindset: one that values accuracy, physician engagement, and the ability to control treatment pace without pressure. In this context, Remote Pharmacy's offering is experienced not as a sales mechanism, but as a compliant access point for individualized care through a licensed provider network. Section 6 – Availability and Transparency Remote Pharmacy's weight loss solutions are available to eligible adults located within states where prescribing services are legally offered through the platform's independent clinical partners. All prescriptions require prior approval from a licensed physician and are evaluated based on submitted medical intake data. Access to compounded GLP-1 treatments, including semaglutide and tirzepatide, is subject to individual suitability and the discretion of third-party providers. Remote Pharmacy does not offer medical advice or diagnostic services. Instead, it facilitates secure, HIPAA-compliant access to licensed prescribers and 503A-certified U.S. pharmacies that independently manage patient evaluations and prescription fulfillment. Remote Pharmacy does not make medical decisions and is not influenced by its administrative role on the platform. Product availability, including format (injectable, dissolvable, or oral), is determined solely by the prescribing provider and may vary by location, compound stability, or the compounding pharmacy's capacity. Delivery times are typically 3–5 business days after approval and fulfillment, but may vary depending on pharmacy operations and shipping logistics. The information provided on Remote Pharmacy's website and intake portals is intended for general awareness only. No therapeutic outcomes are implied or guaranteed. Individuals should consult a qualified healthcare professional to determine the appropriateness of any treatment. Prescription access through Remote Pharmacy aligns with current U.S. telehealth regulations and is designed to facilitate informational engagement with independently licensed providers. Section 7 – Industry Context and Final Observations The growth of digital healthcare models has transformed how consumers engage with prescription therapies, particularly in areas such as weight management and metabolic wellness. As interest in GLP-1 receptor agonists expands, patients are increasingly drawn to prescription platforms that prioritize accessibility, provider discretion, and compound integrity, rather than promotional campaigns or tiered pricing. The rise of compounded GLP-1 formulations, including semaglutide and tirzepatide, signals a notable shift in the healthcare landscape. Once limited to specialty settings, compounded medications are now entering mainstream demand as regulated, physician-directed alternatives. For many individuals, these formulations offer options that align with personal health goals and logistical needs, especially when dispensed through 503A-certified U.S. pharmacies with provider oversight. Telehealth is no longer viewed as a temporary solution, but rather as a standard pathway for clinical engagement. From asynchronous consultations to digital refill management, the patient experience has moved beyond location-bound models. Today's platforms must offer more than convenience — they must demonstrate compliance, transparency, and adaptability to individual needs. Remote Pharmacy's technology-enabled framework reflects these new expectations. By separating its administrative platform from the clinical and pharmaceutical responsibilities of third-party partners, it maintains a neutral stance while enabling lawful prescription access. This model fosters consumer trust while avoiding the common pitfalls of unregulated online marketplaces and exaggerated marketing claims. As the industry continues to evolve, regulated platforms offering secure access to licensed prescribers and independently dispensed, non-branded medications are likely to define the future of weight-related telehealth. For a closer look at how digital pharmacy infrastructure is evolving, visit Section 8 – Public Commentary Theme Summary Public discussions around GLP-1 medications and physician-directed weight loss care have grown more nuanced in 2025. A review of online discourse, forum threads, and social media commentary reveals consistent themes, with interest and caution often expressed in parallel. A recurring point of interest involves the distinction between branded medications and compounded alternatives. Some individuals have noted curiosity about whether non-branded formulations offer greater flexibility, mainly when prescribed by licensed providers and dispensed through accredited compounding pharmacies. Others have expressed appreciation for asynchronous intake methods that reduce the barriers to access, while still preserving professional oversight. Concerns about over-marketed platforms and variable pricing models are also frequently raised. Public commentary often reflects a desire for fixed-cost structures, transparent eligibility requirements, and clearer communication from providers. In this context, services that avoid tiered plans, aggressive promotions, or comparisons to brand-name drugs resonate with individuals seeking a clinical, unbiased experience. There is also growing interest in format diversity. Some consumers prefer injectables prescribed by a physician, while others opt for oral or dissolvable delivery forms, particularly for their potential alignment with daily routines. While discussions often cite motivation or lifestyle fit, users typically acknowledge that outcomes vary and that consistency, rather than speed, is the primary focus. Importantly, commentary acknowledges that access to compounded GLP-1 does not guarantee weight loss or clinical transformation. Individuals appear increasingly aware of the role physician discretion plays in determining suitability, and are open about the need for ongoing communication with providers. This public tone suggests that consumers are approaching compounded GLP-1 treatments not as quick solutions, but as part of an informed, regulated health decision that balances access with accountability.
