Q: Can you speak to some of the specific cost savings that you saw in the quarter and maybe how sustainable you think those are? A: Dennis Dean, Chief Financial Officer: A significant portion of our cost savings came from workforce changes, targeting about $3 million of savings throughout the year. These reductions are expected to continue benefiting us through the remainder of the year.
Q: What is the potential margin you think you can achieve on $160 million to $170 million of revenues? A: Yogesh Jashnani, Chief Executive Officer: For our current guidance, we believe the EBITDA margin is appropriate. As we return to 2022-2023 levels of same-store revenue, we expect to approach long-term EBITDA margins of 30%.
Q: You mentioned seeing momentum in cases exiting March and continuing into April. Is this due to seasonal patterns or same-store year-over-year cases? A: Yogesh Jashnani, Chief Executive Officer: We observed both seasonal improvements and sequential same-store sales improvements. We are encouraged by these signs and still expect to achieve same-store sales growth by the end of the year.
Q: Can you elaborate on the assumptions within your guidance range, particularly regarding same-store case growth and pricing? A: Dennis Dean, Chief Financial Officer: We have seen stable pricing and some signs of improvement in case volumes as we move into the second quarter. However, we are not expecting significant improvement in same-store percentages in Q2, but we do anticipate returning to same-store case growth by year-end.
Q: Have you seen any improvement in the rate of conversion from leads to cases, and is it still trending around 60 days? A: Yogesh Jashnani, Chief Executive Officer: The conversion timeline remains elongated, largely due to the uncertain macroeconomic environment. However, we are encouraged by the growth in lead volumes, which we expect to be a robust source of future growth.
