3Q22 Results. Revenue of $228.6 million, up 14% y-o-y, and in upper end of the $220-$230 million guidance. Revenue from acquisitions offset supply chain issues and staffing challenges. Adjusted EBITDA came in at $20 million, at the top end of guidance, versus $23.8 million a year ago. GAAP EPS loss was $0.06 and adjusted EPS net income was $0.08, compared to a net loss of $0.01 from continuing operations and adjusted EPS net income of $0.09, respectively, a year ago.
