VIEMED HEALTHCARE, INC.

Home medical equipment markets are witnessing sustained expansion, with a notable focus on the complex respiratory and Obstructive Sleep Apnea ("OSA") device segments. Analysts in the industry anticipate a consistent and robust growth trajectory, projecting Compound Annual Growth Rates ("CAGR") of approximately 6% for respiratory devices and 8% for OSA devices. This upward trend underscores the increasing demand for innovative solutions in respiratory care and sleep apnea management, highlighting the industry's responsiveness to evolving healthcare needs. As technological advancements and awareness drive the adoption of these specialized devices, we believe the HME markets, particularly in respiratory and OSA, are positioned for continuous expansion, offering promising opportunities for both providers and consumers alike.

The aging population remains a pivotal driver for the industry, as the elderly, constituting a substantial portion of HME patients, are expected to represent a higher percentage of the overall population. Projections from industry analysts indicate a consistent annual growth in the number of Medicare beneficiaries, contributing to ongoing patient volume growth. A significant contributing factor to the industry's growth is the rising incidence of chronic diseases. Factors such as increasing obesity rates, consequences of past smoking prevalence, under-diagnosis of certain health conditions, and higher diagnosis rates for chronic diseases collectively shape the industry. There is a notable shift towards home-based treatment for these conditions.

The industry is undergoing a transition to value-based healthcare, with both government and commercial payors increasingly adopting models that emphasize the transition of patients from acute care settings to home care. We believe HME providers are well-positioned to benefit from this industry shift. Advancements in technology and medical equipment have led to an increased prevalence of in-home treatments. The broader range of treatments administered in patient homes is expected to continue growing. Projections from industry analysts indicate that U.S. home healthcare spending will increase, reaching $250 billion by 2031, with a CAGR of approximately 7%.

Market consolidation is a notable trend favoring larger, financially stable players. The decline in the number of smaller regional players is attributed to the capital investment and scale required to compete effectively. This has led to a more consolidated and competitive landscape in the durable medical equipment (“DME”) market.

Despite these positive trends, the industry faces challenges such as cost containment efforts of payors. The consolidation of managed care payors into larger purchasing groups has increased negotiating power, resulting in pricing pressure on HME providers. In addition to ongoing negotiations relating to contract management with third party payors to secure fair reimbursement, HME providers are engaging in value-based contracting, focusing on outcomes and patient satisfaction. These value-based contracts leverage data analytics to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness and quality of durable medical goods and provide evidence-based data to payors demonstrating the long-term benefits and cost savings associated with the use of certain medical goods.

Regulatory uncertainty remains a key risk. Future changes in federal spending priorities, program eligibility, and administrative policies may materially affect the HME industry. Notably, the recent finalization of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA) has introduced significant healthcare reforms that could impact reimbursement structures, coverage policies, and provider obligations. Additionally, the implementation of Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) budgeting rules may result in further adjustments to Medicare and Medicaid spending, potentially leading to additional cost containment measures or payment reductions that could affect HME providers. As the industry adjusts to these developments, providers must continue to monitor and adapt to the evolving regulatory environment.

In addition, ventilator coverage remains a key area of regulatory focus. Although ventilators have historically been included under the National Coverage Determination (“NCD”) for the Durable Medical Equipment Reference List, which has been in effect since April 1, 2003, there is currently no dedicated coverage policy that specifically addresses ventilator use. On September 11, 2024, the CMS initiated a national coverage analysis (NCA) to evaluate the use of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in the home for the treatment of chronic respiratory failure related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. CMS released a proposed decision memo on March 11, 2025, and issued the final NCD on June 9, 2025. We have actively participated in the NCD process through formal comments and ongoing engagement with CMS, the Department of Health and Human Services, and members of Congress. The final NCD establishes clear medical necessity criteria for ventilator use that are expected to impact patient access, reimbursement, and utilization of ventilator therapies. This development may have a material effect on our business.

Impact of Inflation

The Company faces current and potential future inflationary pressures driven by factors such as general cost increases, supply chain disruptions, and governmental policies. The manufacturing and distribution costs of Viemed's patient equipment are affected by rising material, labor, and transportation expenses, including fuel costs. Persistent inflation may impact overall demand, increase operating costs, and affect profit margins, potentially adversely affecting Viemed's business and financial performance.

In its 2025 DMEPOS Fee Schedule, CMS announced the fee schedule adjustment based on the annual change to the Consumer Pricing Index for all urban areas. Items that were subject to the competitive bidding program in former competitive bidding areas will receive a 2.9% reimbursement rate increase. Items that were subject to the competitive bidding program in non-competitive bidding areas received a 3.0% reimbursement rate increase. Items not subject to the competitive bidding program received a 2.4% reimbursement rate increase.

As discussed in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are exposed to risks related to our reliance on third-party suppliers, including those associated with evolving trade policies and tariff regimes. In early 2025, the U.S. government announced new tariffs on a broad range of imported goods from multiple countries, prompting reciprocal tariffs from affected trade partners. While medical equipment has traditionally been excluded from such tariffs, the expanded scope of recent trade measures and the possibility of further escalation create significant uncertainty around equipment pricing and supply availability. The timing, scope, and final implementation of these tariffs remain unpredictable. The Company is actively monitoring these developments and continuously assessing their potential operational and financial impacts.

Future volatility in general price inflation and its impact on material availability, shipping, warehousing, and operational overhead could further impact financial results. Viemed attempts to address these pressures through its inflation-linked reimbursement contracts, negotiation, leveraging its purchasing power and embracing technology, such as its proprietary clinical management platform.
