LeMaitre Vascular (LMAT) posts higher Q1 2026 sales, margins and cash flow
LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. reported solid first‑quarter 2026 growth with higher sales, margins, and earnings. Net sales rose to $66.6 million, up 11% from 2025, driven by grafts, valvulotomes, and shunts across all regions. Gross profit increased to $48.4 million and gross margin improved to 72.7%, helped by price increases, manufacturing efficiencies, and a more profitable product mix.
Net income grew to $15.7 million, up from $11.0 million, with diluted EPS at $0.68. The company generated $15.1 million of operating cash flow, ending the quarter with $26.9 million in cash and $340.4 million in short‑term marketable securities, alongside $172.5 million of 2.50% convertible senior notes due 2030.
LeMaitre increased its quarterly dividend to $0.25 per share and authorized a $100 million share repurchase program, while continuing to invest in global sales expansion, ERP implementation, and facility leases. Biologics represented 53% of sales, and international markets contributed 44% of net sales, aided by a weaker U.S. dollar and recent regulatory approvals.

Insights
LeMaitre delivered double‑digit revenue growth, margin expansion, and stronger cash generation in Q1 2026.
LeMaitre Vascular grew net sales 11% to $66.6 million, with broad-based strength in grafts, valvulotomes, and shunts across Americas, EMEA, and APAC. Gross margin expanded to 72.7%, supported by pricing, mix shift away from lower-margin porcine patches, and better manufacturing efficiency.
Operating income rose to $17.8 million and net income to $15.7 million, reflecting operating leverage as sales and marketing and R&D grew slower than revenue. Cash from operations increased to $15.1 million, while the balance sheet held $26.9 million in cash, $340.4 million in short-term securities, and $172.5 million of 2.50% convertible notes.
Strategically, the company is emphasizing biologics (53% of sales), global direct sales coverage, and consolidating processing and manufacturing into Burlington. The higher quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share and a $100 million repurchase authorization signal ongoing capital return alongside continued investment in ERP rollout, lease commitments, and regulatory transitions such as MDR and UKCA.

LeMaitre Vascular, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2026
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Overview
Unless the context requires otherwise, references to LeMaitre, LeMaitre Vascular, and the Company refer to LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026, and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, have been made. The Company’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Significant Accounting Policies
A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company believes that the consistent application of these policies enables it to provide users of the financial statements with useful and reliable information about its operating results and financial condition.
Beginning in 2026, the Company is self‑insured for certain employee health benefits up to specified retention levels for its US-based employees. The Company records an expense as incurred with a liability for self‑insured risks based on its estimate of the ultimate cost of both reported claims and claims incurred but not yet reported as of the balance sheet date. Expenses are allocated to the applicable employee department on the consolidated statement of operations and liabilities are recorded to accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet.
The estimation of self‑insurance liabilities is a significant accounting estimate because it requires judgment and is subject to inherent uncertainty. Key assumptions used in estimating the liability include historical claims experience, claim development patterns, severity and frequency of claims, changes in healthcare costs, legal or regulatory developments, and other factors that may influence the ultimate cost of settling claims. The Company also uses information provided by third‑party administrators and independent actuarial specialists in developing these estimates.
There have been no other significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2026 in any of the Company's Significant Accounting Policies from those contained in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In connection with the Company’s RestoreFlow allograft business, other deferred costs include costs incurred for the preservation of human tissues available for shipment, tissues currently in active processing, and tissues held in quarantine pending release to implantable status. By federal law, human tissues cannot be bought or sold. Therefore, the tissues the Company preserves are not held as inventory, and the costs the Company incurs to procure and process vascular tissues are instead accumulated and deferred. These costs include fixed and variable overhead costs associated with the cryopreservation process, including primarily direct labor costs, tissue recovery fees, inbound freight charges, indirect materials, and facilities costs. The Company expenses general and administrative expenses and selling expenses associated with the provision of these services as incurred.

6. Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to determine its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves the Company estimating its actual current tax expense together with assessing temporary differences resulting from recognition of items for income tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company must then assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from taxable income during the carryback period or in the future; and to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not more likely than not, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increases its allowance in a period, the Company must reflect this increase as an expense within the tax provision in the statement of operations. The Company does not provide for income taxes on undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries, as its intention is to permanently reinvest these earnings.
The Company recognizes, measures, presents, and discloses in its consolidated financial statements any uncertain tax positions that it has taken, or expects to take on a tax return. The Company operates in multiple taxing jurisdictions, both inside and outside the United States, and may be subject to audits from various tax authorities. Management’s judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and any valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. The Company monitors the realizability of its deferred tax assets and will adjust the valuation allowance accordingly.
The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company’s 2026 income tax expense varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from its foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises. The Company’s 2025 income tax expense varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from its foreign subsidiaries, and discrete stock option exercises.
The Company has reviewed the tax positions taken, or to be taken, in its tax returns for all tax years currently open to examination by a taxing authority. As of March 31, 2026, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits exclusive of interest and penalties was $

The Company computes basic net income per common share by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the
12
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of outstanding stock awards, using the treasury stock method, and outstanding senior convertible notes, using the if-converted method.
A reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and dilutive net income per common share computations are as follows:

The Company computed the if-converted method to calculate diluted net income per common share regarding the Senior Convertible Notes, noting there was no dilutive effect on the calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
The Company has excluded potential dilutive securities from the computation of diluted earnings per common share that would be anti-dilutive to net income per common share. The Company excluded the following potential common shares, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net income per common share attributable to common shareholders for the periods indicated because including them would have an anti-dilutive effect:

Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease minimum payments over the lease term at commencement date. Many of the lease agreements contain renewal or termination clauses that are factored into the determination of the lease term if it is reasonably certain that these options would be exercised. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
None of the Company’s noncancelable lease payments include non-lease components such as maintenance contracts. The Company generally reimburses the landlord for direct operating costs associated with the leased space. The Company has no subleases, and there are no residual value guarantees associated with, or restrictive covenants imposed by, any of its leases. The Company held no assets under finance leases as of March 31, 2026. The Company elected the package of practical expedients that allow it to omit leases with initial terms of 12 months or less from its balance sheet, which the Company expenses on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.
The interest rate implicit in lease agreements is typically not readily determinable, and as such the Company used the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis.
Additional information with respect to the Company’s leases is as follows:

12. Segment and Geographic Information
The Company regularly reviews its segment financial information and the approach used by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company considers the business to be a single operating segment engaged in the development, manufacturing, and marketing of medical devices and implants, as well as the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients, all used primarily in the field of vascular surgery.
15
The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the single operating segment or into other parts of the entity, such as for acquisitions, dividend payments, and/or short-term marketable security investments. Net income is also used to monitor budget versus actual results, which is used in assessing performance of the segment and in establishing management’s compensation.
In addition to total segment net income, the CODM’s quarterly reporting package includes several highlighted expense categories that the CODM considers key strategic drivers of the Company’s long-term profitability.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026, or the 2025 Form 10-K. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the “Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of our 2025 Form 10-K, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Overview
We are a global provider of medical devices and human tissue cryopreservation services largely used in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease, end-stage renal disease, and cardiovascular disease. We develop, manufacture, and market vascular devices to address the needs of vascular surgeons and, to a lesser degree, other specialties such as cardiac surgeons, general surgeons, and neurosurgeons. Our diversified portfolio of devices consists of brand name products that are used in arteries and veins and are well known to vascular surgeons. Our principal product offerings are sold globally, primarily in the United States, Europe, Canada, and Asia Pacific, or APAC. We estimate that the annual worldwide market for peripheral vascular devices exceeds $9 billion, within which we estimate that the market for our products is approximately $1 billion. We have grown our business using a three-pronged strategy: 1) pursuing a focused call point, 2) competing for sales of low-rivalry, niche products, and 3) expanding our worldwide direct sales force while acquiring complementary devices. We have used acquisitions as a primary means of further penetrating the peripheral vascular device market, and we expect to continue this strategy in the future. We currently manufacture most of our products in our Burlington, Massachusetts headquarters.
Our products and services are used primarily by vascular surgeons who treat peripheral vascular disease through both open surgical methods and endovascular techniques. In contrast to interventional cardiologists and interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons can perform both open surgical and minimally invasive endovascular procedures, and therefore can provide a wider range of treatment options to their patients. Recently we have also begun to explore adjacent market customers, such as cardiac surgeons and interventional cardiologists.
Our principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy and occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes. Through our RestoreFlow allografts business, we also process and cryopreserve human vascular and cardiac tissue.
Our principal biologic offerings include vascular and cardiac patches as well as vascular and dialysis grafts. In Q1 2026, biologics represented 53% of our worldwide sales. We believe our biologic devices represent differentiated and, in many cases, growing product segments.
Our business opportunities include the following:
17
We sell our products and services primarily through a direct sales force. Our worldwide headquarters is located in Burlington, Massachusetts, and we also have a North American sales office in Vaughan, Canada. Our European headquarters is located in Sulzbach, Germany, and we also have European sales offices in Milan, Italy; Madrid, Spain; Hereford, England; Dublin, Ireland; Maisons-Alfort, France; and Glattbrugg, Switzerland. Our APAC headquarters is located in Singapore, and we also have APAC sales offices in Tokyo, Japan; Shanghai, China; Docklands, Australia; Seoul, Korea; and Bangkok, Thailand. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, approximately 96% of our net sales were generated in territories in which we employ direct sales representatives. We sell our products in other countries through distributors. As of March 31, 2026, our sales force comprised 158 sales representatives and export managers in North America, Europe, and APAC.
Historically we have experienced success in lower-rivalry niche segments. In the valvulotome market, for example, our differentiated devices have historically allowed us to increase average selling prices without incurring significant unit share loss. In contrast, we have experienced less success in competitive markets such as the polyester vascular graft market, where we face competition from larger companies with greater resources and lower per unit costs.
We have also experienced success in international markets, such as Europe, where we have a significant sales force, and sometimes offer lower average selling prices than in North America. If we continue to seek growth opportunities outside of North America, we may experience downward pressure on our gross margin.
We obtain regulatory approvals for our devices and services in new product categories and geographies to further access the broader peripheral device market and selected other markets, thus extending our geographic reach. Recent approvals include clearance to sell the Artegraft bovine graft in the European Union (EU) in April 2025, Australia in June 2025, and Canada in December 2025, the Pruitt Aortic Occlusion Catheter in the EU in May 2025, and the Pruitt Occlusion Catheter in China in June 2025.
Separately, our regulatory efforts to maintain approvals in the EU and the United Kingdom (UK) have succeeded ahead of the full EU transition from the Medical Device Directive (MDD) to the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and the UK transition to the United Kingdom Conformity Assessed (UKCA) mark. As of April 10, 2026, we have 22 MDR CE marks and 22 UKCA which represent substantially all of our product approvals in the EU and UK. The European Commission has designated the end of 2028 as the final MDR CE mark transition deadline.
Additionally, we provide cryopreservation services for our Restoreflow allografts primarily in the US, UK, and Canada. In October 2025, we received approval from the German authority on tissue banking to allow provision of these services in the German market.
Our strategy for growing our business includes acquisitions of complementary product lines and companies, which can be difficult to identify, negotiate, and purchase. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.
Occasionally we discontinue or divest products that are no longer complementary to our business or not commercially viable.
From time to time we may undertake SKU reductions and attempt to transition sales to other SKUs or products with similar features. Any of these actions may result in inventory write-offs and temporary or permanent negative impacts to our sales, gross margin, and customer relationships.
18
Because we believe that direct-to-hospital sales engender closer customer relationships, and allow for higher selling prices and gross margins through elimination of an intermediary, we periodically enter into transactions with country-specific distributors to transition their sales of our medical devices into our direct sales organization:
In addition to our sales growth strategies, we have also executed several operational initiatives designed to consolidate manufacturing into our Burlington facilities. We expect these plant consolidations and manufacturing transfers will result in improved control over production quality as well as reduced costs. Our most recent manufacturing transfers are:
Our execution of these initiatives may affect the comparability of our financial results and may cause fluctuations from period to period.
In February 2024, we began implementing a new enterprise resource planning, or ERP, system to replace our financial reporting and planning system. In the United States, we transitioned from our legacy ERP system to our newly implemented Microsoft Dynamics D365 system in February 2024. In February 2025, we implemented this new system in the UK. We intend to continue rolling out the new system in our other international locations on a staged basis. The new ERP system has been beneficial in a number of areas, including inventory management, pricing programs, financial operations and real-time reporting. As of March 31, 2026, we have net capitalized costs on our balance sheet of $4.6 million associated with this ERP system.
Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, affect our financial results. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 44% of our sales took place outside of the United States, largely in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We expect foreign currencies will represent a significant percentage of future sales. Selling, marketing, and administrative costs related to these sales are also denominated in foreign currencies, thereby partially mitigating our bottom-line exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. If there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require less of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases we will record more revenue in U.S. dollars than we would have if the exchange rate had not changed. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we estimate that the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates increased our reported sales by approximately $2.0 million, as compared to rates in effect for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Net Sales and Expense Components
The following is a description of the primary components of our net sales and expenses:
Net sales. We derive our net sales from the sale of our products and services, less discounts and returns. Net sales include the shipping and handling fees paid for by our customers. Most of our sales are generated by our direct sales force and are shipped and billed to hospitals or clinics globally. In countries where we do not have a direct sales force, sales are primarily to distributors, who in turn sell to hospitals and clinics. In limited cases our products are held on consignment at a hospital or clinic prior to purchase; in those instances we recognize revenue at the time the product is used in surgery rather than at shipment.
19
Cost of sales. We manufacture the majority of the products that we sell. Our cost of sales consists primarily of manufacturing personnel wages, raw materials and components, depreciation of property and equipment, and other allocated manufacturing overhead, including an allocation of our quality department expenses. Additionally, cost of sales includes the freight expenses we pay to ship products to customers, inventory scrap charges, and excess and obsolescence expenses.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, contests, stock-based compensation, travel and entertainment, sales meetings, attendance at vascular and cardiac congresses, training programs, advertising and product promotions, direct mail, and other marketing costs. Additionally, sales and marketing expense includes customer service department personnel charges.
General and administrative. General and administrative expense consists primarily of executive, finance and human resource salaries, stock-based compensation, legal and accounting fees, information technology expense, intangible asset amortization expense, and insurance expense.
Research and development. Research and development expense primarily includes costs associated with obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our products, salaries, laboratory testing, and supply costs. It also includes costs associated with the design and execution of clinical studies and costs to transfer the manufacturing of acquired product lines to our Burlington facility. Additionally, research and development expense includes costs associated with the design, development, testing, and enhancement of new or existing products.
Other income (expense). Other income (expense) primarily includes interest and dividend income, realized gains (losses) from the sale of debt and equity investments, unrealized gains (losses) from equity investments, interest expense for the Senior Convertible Notes, foreign currency gains (losses), and other miscellaneous gains (losses).
Income tax expense. We are subject to federal and state income taxes for earnings generated in the United States, which include operating losses or profits in certain foreign jurisdictions for certain years depending on tax elections made, and foreign taxes on earnings of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. Our consolidated tax expense is affected by the mix of our taxable income (loss) in the United States and foreign subsidiaries, permanent items, discrete items, unrecognized tax benefits, and amortization of goodwill for U.S. tax reporting purposes.

Net sales. Net sales increased by $6.7 million, or 11%, to $66.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $59.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by higher average selling prices, higher unit volumes shipped to customers, and the European launch of Artegraft in the second half of 2025. Graft sales increased $4.1 million, valvulotome sales increased $1.6 million, and shunt sales increased $0.7 million. We estimate that the weaker U.S. dollar increased net sales by $2.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Direct-to-hospital net sales were 96% and 94% of our total net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Net sales by geography. Net sales in the Americas increased $2.6 million, or 7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of grafts of $3.0 million, valvulotomes of $0.5 million, and catheters of $0.1 million, offset by decreased sales of patches of $1.4 million due to the termination of our cardiovascular porcine patch distribution agreement with Elutia in 2025.
Europe, Middle East, and Africa, or EMEA, net sales increased $3.3 million, or 20%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of grafts and valvulotomes of $1.0 million each, shunts of $0.5 million, and patches of $0.4 million.
APAC net sales increased $0.7 million, or 18%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of clips and patches of $0.2 million each and shunts and grafts of $0.1 million each.

Gross profit increased $7.0 million, or 17%, to $48.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $41.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and gross margin increased by 350 basis points to 72.7% in the period, as compared to 69.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in gross profit was driven primarily by increased sales, particularly from grafts, valvulotomes, and shunts. The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by sales price increases, greater manufacturing efficiencies, and favorable product mix, including decreased sales of comparatively lower margin porcine patches due to the decision to end our distribution agreement with Elutia. The increase was partially offset by higher scrap and excess and obsolescence charges during the period.
Operating Expenses. The following tables set forth changes in our operating expenses for the periods indicated and the change between the specified periods expressed as a percentage increase or decrease:

Sales and marketing. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, sales and marketing expenses increased 2% to $14.5 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher sales representative headcount and wage increases, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $0.6 million, partially offset by decreased general supplies expenses of $0.3 million. Sales force
21
headcount was 158 as of March 31, 2026, a 3% increase from March 31, 2025. As a percentage of net sales, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 22% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, down from 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
General and administrative. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, general and administrative expenses increased 15% to $12.0 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher headcount and wage increases, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $0.8 million. General supplies increased $0.4 million and professional fees and outside services increased $0.3 million. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses remained consistent at 18% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Research and development. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, research and development expenses decreased 1% to $4.1 million. The decrease was driven primarily by lower third-party service fees, which resulted in decreased professional fees and outside services expenses related to MDR related activities of $0.4 million, partially offset by general supplies increased $0.2 million and compensation and related expenses increased $0.1 million. As a percentage of net sales, research and development expenses decreased to 6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, down from 7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Income tax expense. We recorded a tax provision of $4.0 million on pre-tax income of $19.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a $3.2 million tax provision on pre-tax income of $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our effective income tax rate was 20.3% for the three month period ended March 31, 2026. Our tax expense for the current period is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of 22.9%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly periods for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for the current period varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.
Our effective income tax rate was 22.7% for the three month period ended March 31, 2025. Our 2025 provision was based on the estimated annual effective tax rate of 23.8%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly period for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.
We monitor the mix of profitability by tax jurisdiction and adjust our annual expected rate on a quarterly basis as needed. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or timing of the resolution for any particular tax matter, we believe our tax reserves reflect the probable outcome of known contingencies.
We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income and record a valuation allowance to reduce gross deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. As of March 31, 2026, we have provided a valuation allowance of $1.7 million for deferred tax assets primarily related to Australian net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards and Massachusetts tax credit carry forwards that are not expected to be realized.
On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") into law. Key corporate tax provisions include the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying assets, immediate expensing for domestic research and experimental expenditures, changes to Section 163(j) interest limitations, updates to GILTI and FDII rules, amendments to energy credits, and expanded Section 162(m) aggregation requirements. The impact of these adjustments is reflected in our tax provision and financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026. We will continue to monitor future legislative developments and assess their impact on our tax position and financial reporting.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents were $26.9 million, as compared to $28.2 million as of December 31, 2025. We had $340.4 million in short-term marketable securities as of March 31, 2026, as compared to $330.9 million as of December 31, 2025. Our cash and cash equivalents are bank deposits and liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held in our operating bank accounts. Our short-term marketable securities primarily include corporate debt securities, U.S. government agency securities, and money market investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held outside of our operating bank accounts. liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase and consist primarily of operating bank accounts. As of March 31, 2026, our short-term marketable securities reflected an unrealized loss of $0.9 million as a result of market interest rates.
On February 19, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our common stock through transactions on the open market, in privately negotiated purchases, or otherwise until February 18, 2027. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. To date we have not made any repurchases under this or any prior program.
22
Convertible Senior Notes
On December 19, 2024, we issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030, or the Senior Convertible Notes, in a Rule 144A private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to an indenture dated December 19, 2024, by and between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, or the Indenture.
The Senior Convertible Notes will mature on February 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Convertible Notes were approximately $167.7 million, net of debt issuance costs totaling $4.8 million. The Senior Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.50% per year, and interest is payable semiannually in arrears on August 1 and February 1 of each year. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we made $2.2 million in interest payments. We did not make any interest payments for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The initial conversion rate is 8.3521 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $119.73 per share of common stock and a premium of approximately 30% over the closing price of our common stock on December 16, 2024. In connection with the most recent payment made on March 26, 2026 of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share (an increase from the quarterly dividend amount of $0.16 per share as of the time of issuance of the Senior Convertible Notes), the conversion rate of the Senior Convertible Notes was increased to 8.3746 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $119.41 per share of common stock. A similar adjustment to the conversion rate will be made upon payment of the quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 on June 4, 2026, and upon payment of subsequent quarterly dividends in excess of $0.16 per share. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events as described in the Indenture.
Noteholders may convert all or a portion of their Senior Convertible Notes at their option only in the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2025, if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter; (2) during the five consecutive business days immediately after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Senior Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per share of our common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or distributions on the our common stock, as described in the Indenture; (4) if we call (or are deemed to have called) any Senior Convertible Notes for redemption; and (5) at any time from, and including, August 1, 2029, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We have the right to elect to settle conversions either in cash, shares of common stock, or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock.
Prior to February 5, 2028, the Senior Convertible Notes will not be redeemable. On or after February 5, 2028, until the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, we may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Senior Convertible Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture), at our option, if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption. In addition, calling any Senior Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to that Senior Convertible Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Senior Convertible Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.
Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements
We require cash to pay our operating expenses, make capital expenditures, and pay our long-term liabilities. Since our inception, we have funded our operations through public offerings and private placements of equity securities, short-term and long-term borrowings, and funds generated from our operations.
We recognized operating income of $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. We expect to fund any increased costs and expenditures from our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities, though our future capital requirements depend on numerous factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
23
We believe that our cash, cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, and the interest we earn on these balances will enable us to fund our operating expenses, capital expenditures requirements, and Senior Convertible Note interest payments for at least twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-Q and, together with our anticipated future cash, cash equivalents, and short-term marketable securities, to meet our known long-term cash requirements.
We may need to raise additional funding, which might not be available on desirable terms or at all. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

On April 28, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.25 per share payable on June 4, 2026, to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 21, 2026.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows is disclosed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates because we denominate our transactions in a variety of foreign currencies. Changes in these rates may have an impact on future cash flow and earnings. We manage these risks through normal operating and financing activities. There has been no material change in the foreign currency risk or interest rate risk discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk” included in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, respectively), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
25
disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As previously disclosed, in February 2024 we began implementing a new ERP system. The ERP implementation requires the integration of new ERP software with multiple new data flows and business processes. The new ERP is designed to accurately maintain our books and records and provide information to our management teams which is important to the operations of the business. As the phased implementation of the new ERP system progresses, we expect to continue to change certain processes and procedures which, in turn, are expected to result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. As such changes occur, we will evaluate quarterly whether such changes materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Other than the new ERP system implementation, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
26
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations, proceedings, and threats of litigation relating to employment, product liability, commercial arrangements, contracts, intellectual property and other matters. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, there are no matters that management believes would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. However, we cannot provide any assurance that any risk factor will not materialize.
