Knox Co. health department warns public about Hepatitis
Hepatitis is a disease that can damage the liver and has three types: Hepatitis A, B and C.
Hepatitis A and B can be prevented with vaccines, but there is no vaccination for Hepatitis C.
Hepatitis A is spread through contaminated food or water, or by being in close contact with someone who has the virus. While B is spread through contact with blood or bodily fluids. Finally, C is most commonly spread by sharing needles or equipment used to inject drugs.
Knox County Health Department Immunization Nurse, Kelly Neighbors, said awareness month is important for prevention, treatment and testing.
'It is basically a silent disease. There are millions of people walking around in this world that do not have the knowledge of Hepatitis or don't even know that they have Hepatitis. So, it's a good idea to get tested, especially if you don't know,' said Neighbors.
The Knox County Health Department is open Monday through Friday, and they do accept walk-ins.

INSP Stock Plunges Despite Q2 Earnings Beat, Gross Margin Contracts
Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. INSP delivered an earnings per share (EPS) of 45 cents in second-quarter 2025, up 40.6% year over year. The figure topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 104.6%. INSP's Revenues in Detail Inspire Medical registered revenues of $217.1 million in the second quarter, up 10.8% year over year. The figure beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.9%. Per management, the overall revenue growth was primarily driven by increased market penetration and increased physician and patient awareness of the Inspire system. However, this was partially offset by ENT surgeon capacity constraints and some U.S. patients and physicians delaying Inspire therapy until Inspire V is available at their location or while they trial GLP-1 medications. Shares of this company lost nearly 24.9% in today's pre-market trading. Inspire Medical's Segment Details Inspire Medical's operations consist of two geographic regions — the United States and All other countries. In the quarter under review, U.S. revenues of $207.2 million reflected an increase of 10.3% from the year-ago quarter on a reported basis. As of June 30, 2025, Inspire Medical had 348 U.S. sales territories and 259 field clinical representatives compared with 335 and 230, respectively, as of Dec. 31, 2024. Revenues from All other countries totaled $9.9 million, up 23% year over year on a reported basis. Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. Quote INSP's Margin Analysis In the second quarter, Inspire Medical's gross profit increased 9.9% year over year to $182.4 million. However, the gross margin contracted 74 basis points (bps) to 84%. Selling, general and administrative expenses jumped 20.8% year over year to $159.5 million. Research and development expenses decreased 9.2% year over year to $26.2 million. Operating expenses of $185.7 million increased 15.4% year over year. Operating loss totaled $3.3 million against the prior-year quarter's operating profit of $5.1 million. Inspire Medical's Financial Position Inspire Medical exited second-quarter 2025 with cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $300.9 million compared with $369.2 million at the first-quarter end. Cumulative net cash used in operating activities at the end of second-quarter 2025 was $4 million, against net cash provided by operating activities of $8.8 million a year ago. INSP's Outlook Inspire Medical has lowered its revenue and EPS outlook for 2025. The company now projects revenues in the range of $900 million-$910 million (representing growth of 12-13% from 2024 levels), lowered from the prior outlook of $940 million-$955 million (representing growth of 17-19% from 2024 levels). The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $949.1 million. The company now expects its EPS for 2025 to be between 40 cents and 50 cents, lowered from the prior outlook of $2.20-$2.30. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $2.26. Our Take on Inspire Medical Inspire Medical exited the second quarter of 2025 with better-than-expected results. The robust improvement of the top and bottom lines was impressive. Strength in year-over-year geographical revenues was promising. The increased market penetration and increased physician and patient awareness of the Inspire system during the reported quarter were encouraging. However, the gross margin contracted due to rising product costs. This does not bode well for the stock. Also, management's confirmation about the slower-than-expected progress of the U.S. commercial launch of Inspire V is worrying. Per management, this has resulted in the pushing forward of the timeline to complete the full transition to Inspire V, which will impact financial results for the year. INSP's Zacks Rank and Key Picks Inspire Medical currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Some better-ranked stocks in the broader medical space that have announced quarterly results are GE HealthCare Technologies Inc. GEHC, West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. WST and Boston Scientific Corporation BSX. GE HealthCare, sporting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), reported second-quarter 2025 adjusted EPS of $1.06, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 16.5%. Revenues of $5.01 billion outpaced the consensus mark by 0.7%. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank stocks here. GE HealthCare has a long-term estimated growth rate of 5.8%.

Financial Outlook: We are providing the following guidance for our third quarter and full year 2025: Q3 2025: We expect our revenue to be between $141 million and $143 million, reflecting year-over-year growth of 41% at the midpoint. We expect our non-GAAP income from operations to be between $17 million and $21 million, compared to non-GAAP loss from operations of $3.7 million in Q3 2024. Fiscal Year 2025: We expect our revenue to be between $548 million and $552 million, reflecting year- over-year growth of 41% at the midpoint. We expect our non-GAAP income from operations to be between $77 million and $83 million, compared to non-GAAP loss from operations of $26.1 million in 2024. Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release uses non-GAAP financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (GAAP). For more information about these non-GAAP financial measures, including the limitations of such measures, and for a reconciliation of each measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, please see the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below. Moreover, we have not reconciled our non-GAAP income (loss) from operations guidance to GAAP income (loss) from operations because we do not and are not able to provide guidance for GAAP income (loss) from operations due to the uncertainty and potential variability of stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets and adjustments, such as the excess inventory and transition charges, restructuring and other expense and acquisition related expense, which are reconciling items between non-GAAP and GAAP income (loss) from operations. Because such items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures. However, such items could have a significant impact on our future GAAP income (loss) from operations. Hinge Health Earnings Webcast We will host a conference call and webcast for investors on August 5, 2025 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time (4:30 p.m. Eastern Time) to discuss our financial results, business highlights and financial outlook.

We anticipate that this seasonality will continue and therefore focus on LTM calculated billings. Our revenue generally does not reflect this seasonality and these quarterly fluctuations given that we recognize revenue ratably over the term that members have access to our platform. LTM calculated billings are defined as total revenue, plus the change in deferred revenue, less the change in contract assets for a given 12-month period. Number of Clients: We view this number as an important metric to assess the performance of our business as an increased number of clients drives growth, increases brand awareness, and helps provide scale to our business. Clients are defined as businesses or organizations, which we call entities, that have at least one active agreement with us at the end of a particular period. Entities that procure our platform through our partners are counted as individual clients. We do not count our partners as clients, unless they also separately have at least one active client agreement with us. When a partner has an agreement with us for their fully-insured population, that partner is deemed to be one client, despite there being multiple fully-insured employers within that entity that have access to our platform. Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to our results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and operating margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and free cash flow and free cash flow margin included in this press release, provide users of our financial information with additional useful information in evaluating our performance and liquidity and allows them to more readily compare our results across periods without the effect of non-cash and other items as detailed below. Additionally, our management and board of directors use our non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance and liquidity, identify trends and make strategic decisions. There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release. For example, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to gross profit, gross margin, income (loss) from operations, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Gross Margin We define non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including excess and obsolete inventory charges related to our AI-powered motion tracking technology transition, stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, and restructuring and other expenses. We define non-GAAP gross margin as non-GAAP gross profit divided by revenue. The principal limitation of non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations. Non-GAAP Income (Loss) From Operations and Operating Margin We define non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including excess and obsolete inventory charges related to our AI-powered motion tracking technology transition, stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other expenses and acquisition-related expenses. We define non-GAAP operating margin as non-GAAP income (loss) from operations divided by revenue. The principal limitation of non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP operating margin is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations. Non-GAAP Operating Expenses We define non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude non-cash, non-operational and non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, restructuring and other expenses and acquisition-related expenses. The principal limitation of non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements, including non-cash expenses, and the impact of non-recurring charges that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing core operations. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus cash used for employer payroll taxes related to pre-IPO stock-based compensation less purchases of property, equipment and software (including capitalized internal-use software). We believe that free cash flow is a helpful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated or used by our operations that, after taking into account the employer payroll taxes paid as part of the vesting of shares at IPO as well as investments in property, equipment and software (including capitalized internal-use software), can be used for strategic initiatives, including investing in our business and strengthening our financial position. The principal limitation of free cash flow is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. We define free cash flow margin as free cash flow divided by revenue. We adjust the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures: Excess and obsolete inventory charges. We exclude certain charges related to excess and obsolete inventory related to our AI-powered motion tracking technology transition, which was our strategic decision in the first half of 2023 to shift away from providing kits with tablets and wearable sensors. As part of this shift, we began to provide access to our platform through our app on members' personal smartphones or tablets and replaced sensors for members with our proprietary AI-powered motion tracking technology. We exclude these charges because we do not believe these expenses have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business. Stock-based compensation expense. We exclude stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash expense, from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance. Employer payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation. We exclude expenses for employer payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, this expense is tied to the exercise, vesting or sale of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at the time of exercise, vesting or sale which may vary from period to period independent of the operating performance of our business. Amortization of intangible assets. We exclude amortization of intangible assets, which is a non-cash expense, from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures. Our expenses for amortization of intangible assets are inconsistent in amount and frequency because they are significantly affected by the timing, size of acquisitions and the inherent subjective nature of purchase price allocations. We exclude these amortization expenses because we do not believe these expenses have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business. Restructuring and other expenses. We exclude certain charges that are mainly attributable to workforce reduction in order to simplify our operations and better align our resources with our priorities. We exclude these charges because we do not believe these charges have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business. Acquisition-related expenses. We exclude certain charges that are attributable to acquiring businesses. We exclude these charges because we do not believe these charges have a direct correlation to the operating performance of our business.

HIMS Stock Plunges Following Q2 Earnings Miss, Gross Margin Down
Hims & Hers Health, Inc. HIMS delivered an earnings per share (EPS) of 17 cents in second-quarter 2025 compared with the year-ago period's EPS of 6 cents. However, the metric missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. HIMS' Revenues in Detail Hims & Hers registered revenues of $544.8 million in the second quarter, up 72.6% year over year. The figure missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.5%. Solid revenues from the Online channel drove the top line despite being partially offset by Wholesale revenues. Shares of this company lost nearly 12.9% in today's pre-market trading. Hims & Hers' Segment Details Hims & Hers' operations consist of two channels — Online Revenues and Wholesale Revenues. In the quarter under review, Online Revenues of $536.9 million reflected a surge of 74.9% year over year on a reported basis. During the reported quarter, subscribers were 2.4 million (up 30.8% year over year). This was primarily driven by increased traffic to Hims & Hers' platform (through websites and mobile applications), resulting from its marketing activities and improved onsite and customer onboarding experiences and consumer adoption of the company's personalized offerings across its business, including GLP-1 weight loss offerings. Monthly online revenue per average subscriber increased 29.8% year over year to $74 in the second quarter, primarily resulting from subscriber uptake of personalized offerings across Hims & Hers' business, including its GLP-1 weight loss offering, along with changes in product mix. Wholesale Revenues totaled $7.9 million, down 9.7% year over year. Hims & Hers Health, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Hims & Hers Health, Inc. price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | Hims & Hers Health, Inc. Quote HIMS' Margin Analysis In the second quarter, Hims & Hers' gross profit increased 62.2% year over year to $416.2 million. However, the gross margin contracted 491 basis points (bps) to 76.4%. Marketing expenses jumped 50.3% year over year to $217.9 million, while technology and development expenses increased 102.9% year over year to $37.8 million. General and administrative expenses rose 65.9% year over year to $67.3 million, while operations and support expenses increased 60.4% year over year to $66.5 million. Operating expenses of $389.5 million increased 58.6% year over year. Operating profit totaled $26.7 million, reflecting a 142.3% surge from the year-ago quarter. The operating margin in the second quarter expanded 141 bps to 4.9%. Hims & Hers' Financial Position Hims & Hers exited second-quarter 2025 with cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $1.14 billion compared with $322.7 million at the first-quarter end. Cumulative net cash provided by operating activities at the end of second-quarter 2025 was $89.9 million compared with $79.4 million a year ago. HIMS' Outlook Hims & Hers has provided its revenue outlook for the third quarter and reiterated the same for 2025. The company projects revenues for the third quarter of 2025 in the range of $570 million to $590 million, reflecting an uptick of 42-47% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $583.3 million. For the full year, the company continues to project revenues in the range of $2.3 billion to $2.4 billion (representing growth of 56-63% from 2024 levels). The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $2.35 billion. Our Take on Hims & Hers Hims & Hers' robust improvement in the top and bottom lines and strength in its Online revenue channel in second-quarter 2025 were promising. The increase in subscribers and monthly online revenue per average subscriber during the quarter was encouraging. The expansion of the operating margin during the quarter bodes well. In July, HIMS closed its acquisition of ZAVA, expanding its presence in the U.K. and establishing a foundation in other strategic markets such as Germany, Ireland and France. Per management, the acquisition will likely accelerate the company's ability to expand into markets beyond Europe. In 2026, Hims & Hers expects to enter Canada with an initial focus on a holistic weight loss program, timed to align with the anticipated first-ever availability of generic semaglutide globally. These raise our optimism about the stock. However, Hims & Hers' lower-than-expected results in the second quarter of 2025 and lower Wholesale revenues were disappointing. The gross margin contracted due to rising product costs, which do not bode well for the stock. HIMS' Zacks Rank and Other Key Picks Hims & Hers currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
