What ARCpoint Labs does

ARCpoint Labs is a US-based franchise network operating 100+ direct-access diagnostic testing locations nationwide from its Greenville, South Carolina headquarters. The company serves two primary customer segments: individual consumers seeking lab tests without physician referrals (health screenings, STD panels, DNA/paternity, drug testing, allergy and food sensitivity panels), and employer clients requiring workplace drug and alcohol testing, DOT compliance, background screening, and occupational health services. Testing is performed via certified reference laboratory partnerships and on-site mobile collection, with results typically returned within 1-3 business days.

The core product offering spans more than 20 service categories covering health and wellness, DNA solutions (legal, prenatal, immigration, forensic), drug and alcohol screening, STD panels, cardiovascular and hormone testing, pharmacogenetics, and specialty services such as dry-eye diagnostics and vaccine injections. Technology stack is primarily clinical — specimen collection, chain-of-custody protocols for legal admissibility, and reference-lab processing — rather than proprietary software. A "MAPL technology platform" is referenced in interim CEO guidance but not described in available materials.

Revenue derives from three streams: per-transaction consumer testing fees ($1-$611+ per test), quote-based enterprise contracts with employers, and franchise licensing/royalty income. The parent entity ARCpoint Inc. is publicly listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under CRESSO Brands, alongside sister brand Any Lab Test Now. The company is currently navigating leadership transition, a Management Cease Trade Order filing for delayed financial disclosures, and repeated small dilutive financings that signal operational stress at the corporate level despite an intact franchise footprint.

Emerging players

• FastMed Urgent Care: Urgent care chain offering walk-in testing services including STD panels, basic bloodwork, and occupational health. Adjacent competitor for consumer diagnostic testing volume.
• Pixel by Labcorp (home testing kits): Labcorp's direct-to-consumer home test kit service, including food sensitivity and wellness panels that overlap with ARCpoint's higher-margin specialty offerings.
• STDcheck.com: Online STD testing service offering confidential at-home and lab-based testing nationwide. Competes with ARCpoint's STD panel offering via a pure digital/PLG motion.
• Mobile Health: Occupational health provider specializing in employer drug testing, on-site screenings, and compliance services. Direct competitor in the employer/DOT services segment where ARCpoint earns its B2B revenue.
• eScreen (eScreen/Meridian Bioscience): Provider of workplace drug screening and occupational health solutions, including DOT-compliant testing. Overlaps with ARCpoint's employer and DOT product lines.
