On July 25, 2019, the Company announced disappointing financial results for the second quarter of 2019 and reduced FY 2019 revenue and earnings guidance.

Next, in October 30, 2019, Merit announced disappointing financial results for the third quarter of 2019, reduced FY 2019 guidance again, and entirely withdrew 2020 guidance.  Management attributed the results in part to the summer quarter generally being the slowest quarter of the year.
