Q4 2025 Marks Transition from Restructuring to Growth
For 2026, Expects Double-Digit Revenue Growth,
ROSELAND, N.J., March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Milestone Scientific Inc. (NYSE: MLSS), a leading developer of computerized drug delivery instruments that provide painless and precise injections, today provided a business update and announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Eric Hines, Chief Executive Officer of Milestone Scientific commented:
“When I joined Milestone in August 2025, we were in the middle of the third quarter following a period without consistent executive leadership. During that time, certain spending had occurred that was not always aligned with revenue generation or disciplined capital allocation. Since August, the Company has taken deliberate steps to strengthen financial discipline across the organization, scrutinizing every expense, prioritizing initiatives tied to revenue and measurable ROI, and eliminating spending that does not directly support our path to sustainable growth. We also made a conscious decision not to raise new capital simply to fund inefficient practices. Instead, our focus has been on responsible stewardship of shareholder capital and building a stronger operational foundation
“Under new leadership, the Company has been focused on understanding the business, restructuring and building the right team. In the fourth quarter, we began transitioning to a more offensive posture, launching our dental ambassador program as a pilot in December, relaunching our CompuFlo® commercialization efforts and increasing our investment in digital marketing. Our dental business remains the foundation of our company, with continued strength internationally and significant room for domestic expansion. The Company is also processing registrations in Japan, India and Mexico for STA. On the medical side, the Company has secured multiple new distribution partners for CompuFlo®, as well as identifying two national and several local VA channels. At the same time, we are increasingly encouraged by the potential of CompuFlo®, our proprietary system for precise, controlled epidural injections, which we believe represents a transformative growth driver as reimbursement and clinical adoption expand.
“As we enter 2026, we expect to transition from a period of stabilization to a more offensive posture, investing selectively in initiatives that accelerate growth while maintaining financial discipline. In January, we launched our dental ambassador program nationally, with plans to expand the model to CompuFlo® over time, and in February, we launched our CompuFlo® advisor program with more than ten physician partners and dedicated reimbursement support infrastructure. We expect these efforts, along with continued strength in our dental business and expansion into new international markets to begin contributing to revenue growth over the coming quarters, with more pronounced impact anticipated in the second and third quarters of 2026 as these initiatives gain scale. Our objective is clear: position the Company to achieve cash flow breakeven in early 2027 and create long-term shareholder value.”
