Medifast reports Q3 2026 loss, coach decline and sets Q4 profitability target

Medifast announced third‑quarter 2026 results showing revenue of $72.05 million, down 19.4% year‑over‑year, and a net loss of $17.5 million. The number of independent active earning coaches fell 47.7% to 10,200, while revenue per coach rose 54% to $7,064. The company guided fourth‑quarter revenue of $55 million‑$75 million and EPS of $0‑$0.25, reiterating its aim to achieve profitability in Q4.

The Q4 revenue and EPS guidance suggest a possible return to profitability, which could improve cash flow and support the ongoing Trilivy transformation (the company says the guidance “targets profitability in Q4”). The strong balance sheet of $172.5 million cash and no debt gives the firm flexibility to fund the rollout and cost‑reduction initiatives (the company notes its debt‑free position provides a stable base).
