▼(-17.17% Downside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:03/31/26
The score is held back primarily by weakening TTM financial performance (revenue decline, margin compression, return to losses) and a bearish technical trend. These are partially offset by comparatively better cash flow/leverage signals and a somewhat positive earnings-call outlook centered on full-year growth/positive adjusted EBITDA and improving data monetization.
Positive Factors
Record services growth
Champions’ core fee-for-service CRO business showed durable demand: record study revenue grew ~32% YoY driven by strong study execution and backlog conversion. A steady services pipeline and repeatable study workflows support recurring fee revenue and scalable operating leverage over multiple quarters.
Negative Factors
Top-line decline
Trailing twelve‑month revenue weakness (~-29%) highlights vulnerability to study timing and data recognitions. Persistent top‑line declines reduce absorption of fixed costs, limit scale benefits, and make multi‑period planning for data platform investments and R&D harder to sustain without steady contract flow.

Champions Oncology Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Mar 12, 2026
(Q3-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 16, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call conveyed solid operational execution — record services revenue, ~32% growth in core study revenue, and a third consecutive positive adjusted EBITDA — alongside deliberate investments in data and a therapeutic subsidiary (Corellia). However, near-term challenges include a modest overall revenue decline (~3%) driven by absence of prior-year data license revenue, compression of gross margin (61% to 47%) driven in part by outsourced radiolabeling costs, and elevated operating expenses (~+36%). Data revenue remains early and variable, and Corellia funding timing is uncertain. On balance, the positive operational momentum and pathway to monetize data and Corellia slightly outweigh the near-term margin and timing headwinds.Positive Updates
Record Services Revenue and Core Study Growth
Total revenue of $16.6M for the quarter with core study (services) revenue a record $16.6M, up from $12.6M year-ago (~+32%), reflecting strong study execution and conversion of previously booked work.
Negative Updates
Overall Revenue Slight Decline Year-Over-Year
Total revenue declined to $16.6M from $17.0M year-ago (~-3%), primarily due to recognition of $4.5M of data revenue in the prior-year quarter that was not recognized this quarter.

Company Guidance
The company guided that it remains on track for full‑year revenue growth and full‑year positive adjusted EBITDA, expects to close additional data revenue in Q4 (including a closed 6‑figure data deal and incremental revenue from the large data deal announced in Q3 FY25), and sees the payoff from current investments beginning in fiscal 2027 with more meaningful acceleration in fiscal 2028; Corellia funding is included in initial fiscal 2027 budgets (though external financing could redeploy that EBITDA). For context, Q3 results underpinning the guidance included total revenue of $16.6M (down ~3% YoY from $17.0M) driven by record study revenue of $16.6M (+~32% YoY vs $12.6M) and no data revenue this quarter (vs $4.5M prior), adjusted EBITDA of $575K (GAAP loss from operations ≈$275K), gross margin of 47% ($8.8M cost of sales, >$2M of which was outsourced lab work — if performed internally margin would exceed 50%), operating expenses of $7.2M (vs $5.3M), net cash used in operations $1.4M, and $7.1M cash with no debt.Champions Oncology Financial Statement Overview
