Angels Receive Mike Trout News Before Dodgers Game
Nearly two months into the season, the Los Angeles Angels are 17-25 and are the only team in the AL Central with a losing record. Furthermore, they own the third-worst record in the AL and are 4-6 in their last 10 games. Los Angeles has won just one series in the month of May, and they have won two consecutive games just two times since the beginning of April. The season is still young, and they have plenty of time to turn things around. However, they will have a difficult challenge immediately in front of them. Advertisement On Friday night, they will begin a three-game series against the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers own the best record in the NL and won three of their last four games. Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (27)Troy Taormina-Imagn Images Once the best player in the MLB, it seems that Trout's best days could be behind him as he has struggled to stay healthy over the past few seasons. The three-time MVP has appeared in over 100 games in just one season since 2020, and his season ended after just 29 games last year. Trout is currently rehabbing a bone bruise in his knee and has been out of action since April 30. According to Angels beat writer Jeff Fletcher, however, the Angels outfielder is progressing in his recovery. Advertisement "Mike Trout has begun hitting off a machine," Fletcher wrote on X. "He's also throwing and doing agility on the field. He's running on the Alter G at 75% of his weight." Though his recovery seems to be going well, there is still no concrete timetable for Trout's return from injury. Until there is more clarity, his status will be crucial to monitor.

The company reported an 85% increase in full-year revenue for 2024, reaching $25.7 million, demonstrating significant business scaling. Lifeward Ltd (NASDAQ:LFWD) has established a Sustainable Growth Plan aimed at reducing costs and improving operating efficiency. The company has expanded its distribution agreement with MYOLYN, allowing for greater market penetration, particularly in the home market. Lifeward Ltd (NASDAQ:LFWD) has secured a meaningful contract with BARMER in Germany, setting a standard for providing exoskeletons. The ReWalk sales were below expectations due to delays and attrition in Medicare cases, impacting revenue predictability. GAAP gross margin decreased to 24.4% in Q4 2024 from 35.5% in Q4 2023, primarily due to restructuring charges. The company recorded a $9.8 million impairment charge on intangible assets, affecting GAAP operating expenses. Lifeward Ltd (NASDAQ:LFWD) received a going concern qualification from auditors, reflecting concerns about the adequacy of its balance sheet. The company experienced patient attrition and deferrals in the ReWalk product line, affecting sales cycles and revenue. Q: For the 2025 guidance, how do you see the growth of each component? Is the guidance generally more conservative? A: Mike Lawless, CFO: The guidance reflects growth across our three major product lines: ReWalk, AlterG, and MyoCycles. MyoCycles, being the smallest contributor, will likely show the biggest percentage growth due to an expanded distribution agreement. We expect growth in all three lines, focusing on more profitable and efficient growth. Q: What impact will the CoreLife partnership have on the workers' compensation segment? A: Larry Jasinski, CEO: The CoreLife partnership provides us with a larger conduit into the workers' compensation market, which is about 6% of all spinal cord injuries. CoreLife can process these efficiently, reducing our expenses and ensuring timely payments. Q: Will the next-gen ReWalk be introduced this year? A: Larry Jasinski, CEO: Yes, we anticipate the next-gen ReWalk will be on the market this year. The product has completed all testing, and we expect FDA clearance in the first half of the year. Q: How much of the recent announcements, like CoreLife and MyoCycle, are factored into the revenue guidance? A: Larry Jasinski, CEO: We have factored them in conservatively. CoreLife is a new arrangement, but it has good growth potential. The expanded MyoCycle agreement allows us to sell directly to home users, which is a larger market. Q: What are the learnings from the Medicare reimbursement cycle, and how does it affect discussions with private payers? A: Mike Lawless, CFO: The Medicare cycle has been longer than expected, but it provides a baseline for private payers. We anticipate CMS will become more efficient, and the commercial side seems to have a shorter path.
