AMN Healthcare Services (NYSE:AMN – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings data on Thursday. The company reported $0.22 earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, hitting the consensus estimate of $0.22, FiscalAI reports. AMN Healthcare Services had a negative net margin of 10.14% and a positive return on equity of 10.89%. The company had revenue of $748.23 million during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $723.11 million. During the same quarter in the prior year, the firm earned $0.75 earnings per share. The firm’s revenue was up 1.8% compared to the same quarter last year.
Here are the key takeaways from AMN Healthcare Services’ conference call:
- The company reported an outsized impact from labor disruptions, with Q4 labor disruption revenue of $124 million and is assuming roughly $600 million of strike-related revenue in Q1, which materially boosted near-term revenue, cash flow, and operating leverage while the events also reduced consolidated gross margin.
- AMN strengthened its balance sheet in 2025, reducing debt by $285 million, ending the year with net leverage ~3.3x and saying it expects to be below 3.0x on an LTM basis in Q1, improving financial flexibility.
- Management emphasized investments in technology and AI enablement (recruiting, credentialing, event management and VMS enhancements) and said its event management system proved effective in high-demand strike events, which the company views as a durable competitive advantage and margin-scaling opportunity.
- Operational headwinds persist in parts of the business—Technology & Workforce Solutions revenue fell 18% YoY (language services and VMS pressured), Nurse & Allied revenue excluding disruption was down YoY (though sequentially improving), and consolidated gross margin has declined materially year-over-year.
- For the longer term AMN reiterates a path to sustainable organic growth of 4%–6% (ex-disruption) and 10%–15% adjusted EBITDA growth via market recovery, share gains and cost leverage, but these are forward-looking company targets subject to change.
