Consolidated revenue growth accelerated to 5% in Q3, driven by strong momentum in Branded Products and Contact Centers which offset strategic repositioning headwinds in Healthcare Apparel.
Branded Products achieved 31% EBITDA growth through a combination of higher volumes from new and existing customers, improved pricing strategies, and SG&A leverage.
The Contact Center segment (The Office Gurus) expanded its addressable market through the acquisition of Select VoiceCom, transitioning from a purely nearshore provider to a global 'right-shoring' model with offshore capabilities in the Philippines.
Healthcare Apparel performance was intentionally pressured by a strategic shift under new leadership to streamline product assortments, aimed at reducing working capital and improving long-term margins.
Management is investing in high-level human capital, including a new Chief Revenue Officer and VP of Supply Chain, to scale the business toward a long-term $1 billion revenue goal.
Operational efficiency in the Contact Center segment improved sequentially, with gross margins rising 200 basis points as the company converts its growing pipeline into active business.
The company strengthened its capital structure by amending and extending its $200 million credit facility for five years, providing the flexibility needed for continued M&A and organic growth.
Full-year 2026 guidance was tightened to a range of $578 million to $585 million in sales and $0.60 to $0.66 in adjusted EPS, reflecting confidence in diversified segment performance.
The Select VoiceCom acquisition is expected to be accretive to earnings starting in the first full quarter of ownership (Q1 2027), though no revenue from it is included in the Q4 2026 guidance.
Healthcare Apparel is expected to face continued margin pressure through the first half of 2027 as the company utilizes discounting to exit non-core inventory and finalize its assortment streamlining.
Management intends to pause M&A activity within the Contact Center segment to focus on integrating the Philippines operations, while remaining active in pursuing targets for other business units.
The company anticipates sustained growth in Branded Products into 2027, supported by new leadership roles focused on market share expansion and marketing strategy.
A $4 million incremental inventory write-down was recorded in Healthcare Apparel to facilitate the strategic streamlining of the product assortment.
Healthcare Apparel results were further impacted by a $1 million credit loss charge stemming from a change in a specific customer's financial position.
The company realized $1.8 million in tariff refunds during the quarter, which partially mitigated the margin decline in the Healthcare segment.
The Select VoiceCom acquisition involved a $27 million upfront cash payment with a one-year earnout based on a 5x earnings multiple.
The acquisition adds an established offshore platform in the Philippines, allowing for 'right-shoring' solutions that blend nearshore, onshore, and offshore delivery.
It provides entry into the healthcare BPO vertical, specifically utilizing Filipino registered nurses and physical therapists for specialized client needs.

Management believes they are through the 'most challenging part' of the inventory write-downs but expects discounting to continue through H1 2027.
The goal of the current pressure is to reach a 'tighter assortment' that requires less working capital and yields higher structural margins.
AI is being used for 'agent augmentation' rather than replacement, increasing agent bandwidth and improving first-call resolution rates.
Management confirmed that their AI suite (Guru iX) has been a primary factor in winning new logos and retaining clients who prioritize future-ready technology partners.
SGC leverages its scale as a top-10 player to outperform smaller competitors struggling with rising costs and tariffs.
The business model allows for order-by-order pricing, providing the elasticity to absorb input cost increases while maintaining competitive value.
