| Metric | Latest | YoYYoY means Year-over-Year. It compares the latest annual value with the previous annual value to show long-term trend strength. | QoQQoQ means Quarter-over-Quarter. It compares the latest quarter with the immediately previous quarter to show short-term momentum changes. |
|---|---|---|---|
| RevenueThe total money that came through the front door from selling things, before paying a single bill. Think of it as the grand total of every credit card swipe from customers. (YoY compares this year to last year's performance, while QoQ compares the current three months to the previous three). | $176.0M | +39.9% | +21.9% |
| Net IncomeThe absolute bottom line. If the company paid every single supplier, employee, banker, and tax collector, this is the actual money left in their pocket at the end of the day. | $-116.8M | -21.1% | +42.5% |
| Gross MarginThe basic markup. If they sell a $100 pair of sneakers, this percentage tells you how much of that price tag is profit right after paying for the rubber and shoelaces, but before paying for things like store rent or TV commercials. | +76.8% | +2.3% | +3.5% |
| Operating MarginThe 'day job' efficiency score. Out of every dollar a customer spends, this shows how many cents the company keeps after making the product AND paying for all the everyday corporate overhead (like salaries, marketing, and keeping the lights on). | -36.4% | +25.2% | +33.3% |
| Net MarginThe final take-home percentage. When you strip away every conceivable cost, tax, and interest payment, this is the exact number of cents the company truly gets to keep from every dollar in sales. | -66.3% | +13.4% | +52.8% |
| Free Cash FlowThe holy grail of corporate cash. It's the spendable, physical money left over after the business pays for its daily operations AND buys the big, expensive upgrades (like new factories or servers) it needs to survive. This is the 'free' money they can use to pay dividends or buy back stock. | $-59.0M | +19.5% | +67.2% |
| FCF MarginThe ultimate cash conversion rate. It shows how good the company is at turning regular sales directly into cold, hard, spendable cash. A high percentage means the business is an absolute cash-printing machine. | -33.5% | +42.5% | +73.1% |
| Debt / EquityThe financial risk gauge. It compares how much of the company's empire was built using borrowed money (loans) versus the owners' own money (shareholders). A high number means they are heavily leveraged and playing a riskier game; a low number means they are playing it safe. | 7.3% | +139.3% | +5.2% |
| Current RatioThe 12-month survival check. It simply compares the cash they have right now (plus things they can quickly turn into cash) against the immediate bills they absolutely must pay this year. A score above 1 means they have enough in the wallet to cover the upcoming bills without panicking. | 5.20x | +112.2% | -8.8% |
| Total AssetsThe absolute size of the company's empire. It bundles together absolutely everything of value they own—from the cash in the register and the inventory in the warehouse, to the software patents in the vault and the factories on the ground. | $359.5M | +202.8% | +0.1% |
| Metric | Annual (A vs E) | Annual Surprise | Quarter (A vs E) | Quarter Surprise |

Operator: Thank you. Good day and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the HeartFlow Inc. second quarter 2026 earnings call. [Operator Instructions] Please be advised today's conference is being recorded. I would like to hand the conference over to your speaker today, Nick Laudico. Please go ahead. Nicholas Laudico: Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the HeartFlow second quarter 2026 earnings conference call. Joining me today are John Farquhar, HeartFlow's President and Chief Executive Officer, and Vikram Verghese, our Chief Financial Officer. Today we will walk you through our Q2 performance, share updates on our commercial momentum, innovation pipeline, and clinical programs, and provide financial guidance. A live Q&A session will follow. The earnings release accompanying today's discussion is available on our Investor Relations website at ir.heartflow.com. During this call, we will refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP figures can be found in today's earnings release. I'd like to remind everyone that certain statements made on this call are forward-looking within the meaning of federal securities laws. These statements are based on management's current expectations and beliefs, involve certain risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially. Please note that both this live call and a digital replay will be available shortly after the call concludes. With that, I will now turn the call over to John Farquhar, our CEO. John Farquhar: Thank you for joining us. Q2 is an outstanding quarter for HeartFlow and the momentum that we entered 2026 with is accelerating. Our year-over-year revenue growth accelerated for the second consecutive quarter and we finished ahead of our expectations, a credit to our expanding category leadership and the continued strong growth of the CCTA market. It's also a credit to the outstanding efforts of the HeartFlow team and their continued dedication to the patients we serve. Thank you all for your hard work and commitment. In the second quarter, revenue was $64.1 million, up 48% year-over-year, with U.S. revenue up 51%. This was our fastest revenue growth in 8 quarters. Four factors drove this performance. First, Plaque accelerated across new activations and physician utilization. Second, FFRCT utilization remained durable across our existing accounts. Third, we had another strong quarter for new account additions, and the record cohort of 340 accounts we added in 2025 continued to ramp in line with our expectations. And finally, the underlying CCTA market continued to expand, supported by guidelines and strong reimbursement and growing interest in the CT as a frontline diagnostic test for suspected CAD. The strength of our second quarter performance gives us confidence to raise our full-year outlook again. We're now expected to deliver total revenue of $246 million to $250 million, representing 40% to 42% year-over-year growth. We're also …
