Carey Bringle Partners with Josh Williams For Another Year at the NASCAR Xfinity Series

Peg Leg Porker

A few years after Carey Bringle opened the Peg Leg Porker restaurant, he got a call from an ARCA race car driver's manager asking if he would feed a team in exchange for a sticker on his car in the Nashville race. She talked about how this independent driver visited children's hospitals in every city he raced in. The story hit home for Carey, a pediatric cancer survivor himself. That driver was Josh Williams and he won the race that night. Ever since that race, Josh and Carey have kept in touch and Peg Leg Porker has sponsored Josh's car in his Nashville races. Since that time, Carey started more ventures and Josh moved up to the Xfinity series. One thing didn't change, the connection between the two. Both are fiercely independent and both share a passion for supporting charitable causes. In fact, last year, Josh was a finalist for the Comcast Community Champion Award. The ceremony was in Nashville and Carey was right there to support Josh's amazing charitable work across the country. This year is no different. Peg Leg Porker will again be a sponsor on Josh's car and while Josh is in town, he will make a visit to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital. The TN Lottery 250 is this weekend on Saturday at the Nashville Superspeedway. The race starts with driver intros at 2:00 CST. A Nashville native, pitmaster Carey Bringle has been competing in barbecue contests for more than 27 years, and has the blue ribbons to prove it. With a deep southern background built around family values and appreciating a good meal, Bringle founded Peg Leg Porker in 2013. Peg Leg Porker is named after Bringle himself and his greatest win, a cancer battle that he triumphed at the age of 17. With his win, he lost his leg, which led him to create a new name and only added more fire to his passion for success. What started out as a whole hog BBQ team and catering business, turned into a whole lifestyle brand, inclusive of spirits, sauces and spices, to accompany world-class BBQ. Upon opening its doors in the heart of Nashville, Peg Leg Porker was quickly named one of the hottest BBQ joints in the country by numerous media outlets, including Food Network, The Travel Channel, BBC, Southern Living Magazine, Texas Monthly, GQ, Garden and Gun Magazine, and many more. Peg Leg Porker is known for its juicy, smoked-to-perfection pork ribs drenched with a spicy dry seasoning *after* being smoked. Not to mention they're made from scratch, yet playful sides, like Kool-Aid pickles and pork rind nachos, plus Peg Leg Porker’s southern hospitality have guests feeling right at home. Peg Leg Porker has expanded, sharing their ‘cue with fans all over the world with their e-commerce site to ship nationwide. Although many wish Bringle would open another location, there will only be one Peg Leg Porker. Bringle says, “We’re building a legacy, not a chain.” This year, they will be celebrating a decade of being a part of the Nashville community and are excited to continue to be a part of it for many years to come.

FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE) Reports 21% Year-On-Year Growth In Revenue In Q1 2023 and Expects Positive Adjusted EBITDA in Q4

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga On May 10, 2023, FiscalNote Holdings Inc. (NYSE: NOTE) announced its financial results for the first quarter that ended on March 31, 2023. FiscalNote, a provider of global policy and market intelligence, reported a 21% increase in revenue to $31.5 million compared to the same period in the previous year. This result was consistent with the guidance range previously provided. FiscalNote's subscription revenue, which accounted for approximately 90% of its total revenue, grew 25% year-over-year, with 14% of that increase being organic. The company reported a gross profit of $22.6 million, representing a gross margin of 72%, while non-GAAP adjusted gross profit was $25.2 million, representing an 80% non-GAAP adjusted gross margin. The company had a GAAP net loss of $19.3 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.0 million with higher Q1 seasonal public company costs, which was consistent with its previous guidance. FiscalNote continued to demonstrate its leadership in delivering AI-enabled policy and market information which empowers organizations to mitigate risk and navigate businesses confidently in an increasingly complex global geopolitical, economic, and regulatory environment. The company's first quarter operational metrics showed an organic run-rate revenue increase of 9% to $124 million as of March 31, 2023, a 19% total growth year-over-year (YoY), and a 10% growth over the prior year on a proforma basis. Its Annual Recurring Revenue was approximately $119 million on March 31, 2023, representing a 19% total growth year-over-year and a 10% growth over the prior year on a proforma basis. FiscalNote’s financial outlook for the second quarter of 2023 foresees a GAAP revenue of $32 million to $34 million, representing 18% to 25% YoY growth, and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.5 million to $3.5 million for the quarter. The company has implemented efficiency programs that leverage its prior investments in technology and sales and marketing to optimize operations, enhance the company’s go-to-market strategy, and reduce costs, which are all expected to significantly benefit adjusted EBITDA starting in the second quarter. FiscalNote reiterated its full-year 2023 guidance, with a GAAP revenue of $136 million to $141 million – representing 20% to 24% year-over-year growth – and total run-rate revenue of $148 million to $155 million, representing growth of 17% to 22% over the prior year on a proforma basis. Additionally, FiscalNote expects to achieve approximately break-even adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter and positive adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2023, marking an improvement of approximately 71% YoY. FiscalNote's CEO, Tim Hwang, said, "With each quarter, we are continuing to prove our model of building an enduring and resilient growth company with compounding subscription revenue growth, strong gross margins, and, over time, an impressive free cash flow model." The company's financial results demonstrate that FiscalNote is executing well on its plan to become a profitable enterprise SaaS technology provider, and it is confident that it will continue to maintain its leadership in the market.

FDA Issues Warning Letter To iRhythm: An Opportunity For The Cardiac Monitoring Space And One Company In Particular?

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning to the heart monitoring company iRhythm (NASDAQ: IRTC), stating that its products include violations of FDA device and labeling standards. This highlights the prevalence of such issues in the sector – and opens up a space and creates opportunities for other companies in the remote monitoring and cardiac device market like Biotricity Inc. (NASDAQ: BTCY) which have maintained a robust, safety-first approach for their products. Biotricity is a medical technology company that has spent several years building out a complete cardiac product portfolio. Its goal is to provide best-in-class technology, and its innovative products have already helped deliver improvements to patients in the healthcare self-management sector. The company has consistently maintained an “overbuilding” approach to its products and the data and events they transmit, which ensures that its product limitations far exceed what is required. By positioning itself as a leader with its safety-first approach, Biotricity believes it is able to avoid problems that are affecting companies like iRhythm, an issue the company reports is indicative of problems in the larger healthcare system when it comes to companies that focus on selling drugs or clinical services. Some of iRhythm’s key violations as highlighted by the FDA include: End users were not told about the limit on the number of events (100 manual and 500 auto). Data including significant arrhythmias requiring physician notification were being held inaccessible since 2017. The FDA was not provided with device updates, including algorithm and hardware changes. Labeling and marketing claims stated the device can be used with high-risk patients, which is outside of the device’s use indications. Adverse events were not submitted to the FDA for patient injuries including deaths that may have been related to the other violations by iRhythm. This news has the potential to shake up the sector and open up a space in the remote monitoring industry. The market was worth $4.4 billion in 2022 and is set to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.5% over the next seven years. In collaboration with its affiliated cardiologist, Biotricity is focused on providing a premium product within the remote monitoring space. The company seems to be well-positioned to take advantage of the FDA’s announcement and the impact it will have on the remote monitoring sector. The company reached a record revenue run rate in April when it passed $13 million in annualized revenue. This extends its growth by more than 8% since March, with the growth being driven by sales of remote monitoring products plus subscription-based recurring revenues. The company anticipates its revenue growth to continue throughout 2023, with the CEO stating that the company was “starting to reach a critical mass with growing device sales.” Biotricity Brings AI To Cardiac Monitoring A recent article from the New England Journal of Medicine highlighted the important role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the future of healthcare. According to the article, AI will make it possible to quickly analyze large quantities of data, increasing efficiency and potentially providing new insights. Biotricity has already been working on AI products for several years, using AI technology to power its medical devices and pull deep data on its patients. Its flagship product, Bioflux®, connects physicians with 24/7 access to real-time data and has already recorded data on over 112 billion heartbeats. As a result, Bioflux has been able to identify 4,960 cardiac events in its more than 111,000 patients. This saved patients approximately $17,238 each and $85.5 million in total. There is a significant need for treatments and devices like Biotricity’s that help identify and prevent cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Costs from treatment and premature death from CVDs are around $219 billion annually. CVDs claimed the lives of close to one million people in 2020, making it the leading cause of death in the United States. “Our algorithms for detection of cardiac anomalies are FDA-cleared, and for several years our team of dedicated AI software programmers are continually striving to push that envelope,” said Dr. Waqaas Al-Siddiq, Biotricity Founder and CEO. With a focus on improving patient outcomes through innovative solutions, Biotricity has been working with AI technology and its large datasets over the past few years to develop the next generation of diagnostics. As well as iRhythm, companies in the cardiac medical device sector include BioTelemetry Inc., Medtronic (NYSE: MDT) and Philips (NYSE: PHG). Read more about what Biotricity is doing here.
