Analysis

The stock moved -6.0% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite largely telegraphed Q1 2026 results fits prior patterns where earnings often triggered selloffs. The company reported $620 million in revenue, a $92 million GAAP net loss, and trimmed 2026 guidance to $2.70–$2.75 billion of revenue and $1.80–$2.00 adjusted EPS. Past earnings events have also seen sharp downside, so positioning, expectations, and sensitivity to guidance changes could all have contributed to pressure.

Recent Company History

Recent earnings for QuidelOrtho show recurring GAAP losses tied to large goodwill impairments but improving adjusted EBITDA margins and detailed guidance. On Feb 11, 2026, FY25 results and initial FY26 guidance drew a -17.59% reaction. Prior quarters in 2025 showed sizable revenue, cost-savings progress, and reiterated guidance, yet price reactions ranged from about flat to steep selloffs, except Q1 2025, which jumped 41.04%. Today’s Q1 2026 update and guidance reduction fits into a pattern of earnings being key catalysts.

7 terms

in vitro diagnostics medical

"a global leader of innovative in vitro diagnostics, today announced"

In vitro diagnostics are medical tests performed on samples taken from the body—such as blood, urine or tissue—using instruments or kits outside the patient to detect disease, measure biomarkers or guide treatment decisions. They matter to investors because sales, regulatory approvals, reimbursement rules and adoption rates drive companies’ revenue and margins much like product launches and consumer demand in other industries; advances can create growth or disruption in healthcare markets.

point-of-care molecular diagnostics medical

"Expected to Accelerate Growth in Point-of-Care Molecular Diagnostics"

Point-of-care molecular diagnostics are tests that detect the genetic material of germs or biomarkers right where care is given — for example in a clinic, pharmacy, or at the bedside — and deliver fast, lab-quality results. They matter to investors because they enable quicker treatment decisions, reduce reliance on central laboratories, and can create steady demand for devices, cartridges and service contracts, much like having a compact, accurate lab that fits in a doctor’s office.

gaap financial

"GAAP net loss was $92 million; GAAP operating loss was $32 million"

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

View in glossary

adjusted ebitda financial

"GAAP operating loss was $32 million; adjusted EBITDA was $109 million."

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

adjusted diluted earnings per share financial

"Adjusted diluted earnings per share | $1.80 - $2.00 | $2.00 - $2.42"

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is the company’s net profit per share after accounting for potential extra shares (from options or convertible securities) and removing one‑time or unusual items so the number reflects ongoing business results. Think of it like timing a runner’s steady pace after excluding a few unexpected stops; it gives investors a clearer view of sustainable profit available to each share. Investors use it to compare companies and judge underlying profitability and valuation without short‑term distortions.

free cash flow financial

"Free cash flow | $100 - $120 million | $120 - $160 million"

Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.

View in glossary

non-gaap financial measures financial

"See "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Non-GAAP Financial Measures.""

Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.

― LEX Diagnostics Acquisition Expected to Accelerate Growth in Point-of-Care Molecular Diagnostics ―
― Key Product Launches in U.S. and International Markets Expected to Drive Future Growth ―
― Company Updates Full-Year 2026 Financial Guidance ―

SAN DIEGO, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- QuidelOrtho Corporation (Nasdaq: QDEL) (the "Company" or "QuidelOrtho"), a global leader of innovative in vitro diagnostics, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2026.

Key First Quarter 2026 Results:
(all comparisons are to the prior year period)

• Total revenue was $620 million, as reported
  • Point of Care revenue of $113 million declined by 34% as reported and 35% in constant currency, primarily due to a significantly weaker respiratory season compared to the first quarter of 2025.
  • Labs revenue of $353 million declined by 5% as reported and 8% in constant currency, primarily due to slower distributor sales in China that the Company believes is related to pending changes to the China National Health Security Administration ("NHSA") In Vitro Diagnostics ("IVD") pricing guidelines, business disruption related to the Middle East conflict, and a decrease in revenue related in part to the Company's termination of its joint business arrangement with Grifols.
  • Immunohematology revenue of $138 million grew 8% as reported and 3% in constant currency, primarily driven by growth in North America, China and JPAC.
• GAAP net loss was $92 million; GAAP operating loss was $32 million; adjusted EBITDA was $109 million.
• GAAP diluted loss per share was $1.35; adjusted diluted loss per share was $0.04.

"Our first quarter results were in line with our preliminary revenue announcement and reflected a significantly weaker respiratory season and business disruption in China and the Middle East," said Brian J. Blaser, President and Chief Executive Officer of QuidelOrtho. "Importantly, we believe the underlying business remains strong and we are well positioned to deliver on our objectives to expand our adjusted EBITDA margin and improve cash flow in 2026."

"We completed our acquisition of LEX Diagnostics in April, adding an ultra-fast molecular diagnostics platform for point-of-care testing. We also advanced our key strategic priorities, including the U.S. launch of our High-Sensitivity Troponin assay and the rollout of the VITROS 450 platform in select international markets. We believe these innovations enhance our portfolio and position us to drive sustainable, long-term growth," Blaser continued.

Full-year 2026 Financial Guidance

The Company provided its initial financial guidance for full-year 2026 on February 11, 2026. On April 15, 2026, the Company announced preliminary revenue for the first quarter 2026 and indicated that the low end of its full-year 2026 financial guidance ranges remained achievable. Considering first-quarter performance and current market dynamics in China, the Company has updated its previously provided financial guidance. This guidance includes expected 2026 impact from the current draft of the China NHSA IVD pricing guidelines. The Company cannot fully assess the impact until the final NHSA guidelines and implementation timelines are confirmed. In addition, this guidance does not assume a significant, prolonged impact related to the Middle East conflict.   

Full-year 2026 Financial Guidance	Updated (as of 5/5/26)	Previous (as of 2/11/26)
Total revenues (reported)	$2.70 - $2.75 billion	$2.7 - $2.9 billion
Adjusted EBITDA	$615 - $630 million	$630 - $670 million
Adjusted EBITDA margin	23 %	23.3 %
Adjusted diluted earnings per share	$1.80 - $2.00	$2.00 - $2.42
Free cash flow	$100 - $120 million	$120 - $160 million

	Please see page 6 of the First Quarter 2026 Financial Results presentation on the "Investor Relations" page of the Company's website for the full list of assumptions on which the Company's current 2026 financial guidance is based.

A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not provided because comparable GAAP measures for such measures are not reasonably accessible or reliable due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying measures that would be necessary for such reconciliation. We are not, without unreasonable effort, able to reliably predict the impact of impairment charges and related tax benefits and other non-recurring adjustments. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and may have a material impact on our future GAAP results. In addition, the Company believes any such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. See "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Following the release of financial results, QuidelOrtho will hold a conference call today beginning at 2:00 p.m. PT / 5:00 p.m. ET to discuss its financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial measures that are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, including but not limited to "constant currency Point of Care revenue changes," "constant currency Labs revenue changes," "constant currency Immunohematology revenue changes," "adjusted EBITDA," "adjusted EBITDA margin," "adjusted diluted loss per share," "free cash flow" and other non-GAAP financial measures included in the reconciliation tables accompanying this press release. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures eliminate impacts of certain non-cash, unusual or other items that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance, and the Company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management's financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company's historical operating results and comparison to competitors' operating results. The Company's definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and reports filed with the Commission in their entirety. Reconciliations of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release.
