Previous wording
The increase in net revenue was primarily driven by organic growth in the Company’s broad portfolio of acute and chronic therapies, consisting of acute revenue that had single-digit growth relative to the prior year while chronic revenue grew in the mid-teens. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by the growth in revenue, therapy mix, and acute drug supply chain disruption, as well as the comparable impact of certain temporary favorable therapy procurement dynamics in the prior year. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to the launch of certain new higher cost therapies included within chronic growth (including rare and orphan therapies) and to the same comparable impact of certain temporary favorable procurement dynamics in the prior year that did not continue into 2024.

Future revenue and gross profit may be impacted by the supply chain disruption in the availability of certain IV fluids in the near term. Additionally, management anticipates that 2025 gross profit will be negatively impacted due to a manufacturer’s proposed significant reduction in the spread at which the Company procures a key therapy relative to drug reference prices beginning in early 2025.
