The revenue outperformance was fueled primarily by subscription revenue growth of 38%, reflecting accelerating adoption of the company's AI-enabled revenue cycle management platform, which recently ranked first in client satisfaction in an independent industry survey. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 42.5% from 41.0% a year ago, and GAAP net income reached $19.99 million for the quarter.
