Thesis Summary

KORU Medical Systems is demonstrating strong commercial momentum, highlighted by a record 22% year-over-year revenue growth in Q1 2026. The company's transition toward sustainable profitability is well underway, with adjusted EBITDA and cash usage nearing breakeven. KORU's strategic expansion beyond its core immunoglobulin (Ig) market into non-Ig therapies (such as deferoxamine and oncology) significantly expands its total addressable market. Backed by a highly recurring revenue model with approximately 60,000 patients on its platform, KORU is well-positioned to capture market share globally, particularly through prefilled syringe conversions in the EU.

Bear CaseDownside scenario
$5.0015%

Persistent tariff-related charges and elevated production costs compress gross margins below 61%. Delays in clinical trials or slower-than-expected end-user adoption of prefilled syringes in the EU limit international growth, causing the company to miss its full-year cash flow and revenue targets.

Base CaseCentral scenario
$6.8060%
Matches the consensus mean

KORU successfully executes its 2026 guidance, delivering net revenues between $47.5 million and $50.0 million (15% to 22% growth) and maintaining gross margins within the 61% to 63% range. The company achieves positive adjusted EBITDA and positive cash flow for the full year, supported by steady domestic core growth and ongoing clinical trial advancements.

Bull CaseUpside scenario
$8.0025%

Accelerated adoption of prefilled syringe conversions in international markets and rapid FDA clearance of the deferoxamine 510(k) application drive top-line growth above the high end of guidance. Operational leverage improves faster than expected, leading to significant positive cash flow and gross margins exceeding 63%.

Scenarios are anchored to street consensus at the research date, with our probabilities and rationale.
