Cardiff Lexington Announces Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Cardiff Lexington Corporation (OTC PINK:CDIX) announced today financial results for its third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Alex Cunningham, Chief Executive Officer of Cardiff Lexington, commented, "Operationally, our business performed well during the quarter. We opened our 12th Nova Ortho and Spine location in Orlando, Florida, establishing Nova Ortho and Spine in a major metropolitan area with greater population density and higher traffic, and saw an increase in booked procedures which generally bodes well for future revenues. That said, the severe weather across Florida during the quarter has delayed many procedures. Also, our GAAP revenue was negatively impacted in the quarter due to a change in estimate related to our claim settlement realization rate that better aligns third quarter revenue with 2024 annualized rates. Adjusted revenue for the quarter, excluding this one-time change in estimate, was $3.0 million. It is our expectation that revenue will return to more historical levels going forward and grow as we strengthen our working capital to support the long-term growth of our business."

"Demand is strong, and we continue to identify strategic locations to establish new Nova Ortho and Spine offices and expand our network of healthcare services. Our shareholders' equity has grown 410% since the beginning of the year, and with our visibility today, we believe that we are on track to deliver enhanced long-term performance supported by a robust network of locations and a strong reputation as a high-quality medical care provider," Mr. Cunningham concluded.
