NEW YORK, May 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Taboola (Nasdaq: TBLA), a global leader in delivering performance at scale for advertisers, today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

“We’re starting the year strong, exceeding the high end of our guidance across all metrics and raising our full-year outlook, reflecting accelerated growth,” said Adam Singolda, CEO of Taboola. “We’re seeing steady progress toward consistent double-digit growth, driven by advertiser success on Realize. Our unique data, AI, and distribution continue to deliver real performance outcomes. We remain focused on growing the budgets we manage, returning capital through an aggressive share repurchase program, and strengthening our position as a leader in performance advertising beyond search and social.”

First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

(All comparisons are to the first quarter of 2025 unless otherwise noted.)

  • Revenues of $466.4 million, an increase of 9.1%.
  • Gross Profit of $129.6 million, an increase of 8.6%. ex-TAC Gross Profit was $168.1 million, an increase of 10.8%.
  • Net Income was $59.1 million, improved from a Net loss of $8.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $26.7 million, down (25.7)%. Adjusted EBITDA margins in the quarter was 15.9%. 
  • Cash Flow generated by operating activities was $108.7 million, compared to $48.1 million. Free Cash Flow was $90.3 million, compared to $36.1 million.

Second Quarter and Full Year 2026 Guidance

For the Second Quarter and Full Year 2026, the Company currently expects (dollars in millions):

    Q2 2026 Guidance FY 2026 Guidance
    Unaudited
    (dollars in millions)
Revenues   $492 – $505   $2,006 – $2,062
Gross profit   $147 – $152   $610 – $630
ex-TAC Gross Profit*   $189 – $194   $760 – $781
Adjusted EBITDA*   $49 – $55   $222 – $240
Non-GAAP Net Income*   $36 – $43   $167 – $191
         

Although we provide guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income, we are not able to provide guidance for projected net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Certain elements of net income (loss), including share-based compensation expenses and warrant valuations, are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of making accurate forecasts. As a result, it is impractical for us to provide guidance on net income (loss) or to reconcile our Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP Net Income guidance without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no disclosure of projected net income (loss) is included. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

*About Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release includes ex-TAC Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to ex-TAC Gross Profit, Free Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Net Income, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenues, gross profit, net income (loss), cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding future financial and business trends relating to the Company. The Company believes that the use of these measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations because they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items are excluded or included in calculating them, which may vary from period to period. Please refer to the appendix at the end of this press release for reconciliations to the most directly comparable measures in accordance with GAAP.

Definitions

  • ex-TAC Gross Profit: Gross profit adjusted to add back other cost of revenues and non-cash amortization of the Commercial agreement asset. We add back the non-cash amortization of the Commercial agreement asset because it is unique primarily due to the issuance of equity rather than cash, such that ex-TAC Gross Profit includes solely direct cash contribution components.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Net income (loss) before finance income (expenses), net, income tax expenses, depreciation and amortization and non-cash amortization of the Commercial agreement asset, further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation including Connexity holdback compensation expenses and other noteworthy income and expense items such as M&A costs and restructuring costs which may vary from period-to-period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margins: The ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to ex-TAC Gross Profit as Adjusted EBITDA divided by ex-TAC Gross Profit.

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Carter’s, Inc. (NYSE:CRI), North America’s largest and most-enduring apparel company exclusively for babies and young children, today reported its first quarter fiscal 2026 results.

“We saw strong demand for our brands during the first quarter across each of our U.S. Retail, U.S. Wholesale and International channels,” said Richard F. Westenberger, interim Chief Executive Officer & President, Chief Financial Officer & Chief Operating Officer. “We posted strong results over the Easter holiday selling period which occurred earlier this year and our investments in marketing drove meaningful traffic increases in our U.S. Retail store and eCommerce businesses.

“Our profitability in the quarter was negatively affected by higher tariffs, investment spending and other inflationary cost pressures and higher interest costs. We expect the impact of these items to moderate as we move through the year and today we have reiterated our full year outlook for both sales and operating profit growth in 2026.

“As announced last week, we look forward to welcoming Sharon Price John as our new Chief Executive Officer next month. Sharon’s extensive industry experience, especially in the children’s space, and her demonstrated record of success position her well to lead the next chapter of Carter’s transformation and growth.”

Adjustments to Reported GAAP Results

In addition to the results presented in this earnings release in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided adjusted, non-GAAP financial measurements, as presented below. The Company believes these adjustments provide a meaningful comparison of the Company’s results and afford investors a view of what management considers to be the Company’s underlying performance. These measures are presented for informational purposes only. See “Reconciliation of Adjusted Results to GAAP” section of this release for additional disclosures and reconciliations regarding these non-GAAP financial measures.

There were no adjustments in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. First quarter of fiscal 2025 results included pre-tax expenses of $6.1 million related to the retirement of the Company’s previous CEO and $3.2 million related to operating model improvement initiatives.

Consolidated Results

First Quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2025

Net sales increased $51.3 million, or 8.1%, to $681.1 million, compared to $629.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, reflecting growth in each segment. Net sales in the U.S. Retail, International, and U.S. Wholesale segments grew 12.8%, 14.3%, and 0.5%, respectively. U.S. Retail comparable net sales increased 10.5%. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates used for translation had a favorable effect on consolidated net sales of approximately $5.6 million, or 0.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Operating income increased $2.3 million, or 9.0%, to $28.4 million, compared to $26.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Operating margin increased to 4.2%, compared to 4.1% in the prior year period, reflecting higher pricing, favorable channel mix, partially offset by incremental tariff costs, inflationary pressure in store-related expenses, as well as the non-recurrence of costs related to leadership transition and operating model improvements in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure) decreased $6.9 million, or 19.6%, to $28.4 million, compared to $35.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted operating margin decreased to 4.2%, compared to 5.6% in the prior year period, principally due to incremental tariff costs, inflationary pressure in store-related expenses, partially offset by higher pricing, favorable channel mix, and benefits from cost savings initiatives.

Net income decreased $1.2 million to $14.3 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to $15.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) decreased $9.4 million to $14.3 million, compared to $23.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted earnings per diluted share (a non-GAAP measure) was $0.39, compared to $0.66 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Net cash provided by operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was $6.4 million, compared to net cash used in operation of $48.6 million in the prior year period. The improved operating cash flow was primarily driven by higher sell through of inventory during the period, lower days of supply, and the timing of interest payments on our senior notes.

See the “Reconciliation of Adjusted Results to GAAP” sections of this release for additional disclosures regarding non-GAAP measures.

Return of Capital

In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company paid a cash dividend of $0.25 per common share totaling $9.2 million. No shares were repurchased in the first quarter.

Future declarations of quarterly dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including business conditions, the Company’s future financial performance, investment priorities, and other considerations.

2026 Business Outlook

We do not reconcile forward-looking adjusted operating income or adjusted diluted earnings per share to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations that are not within our control due to factors described above, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future operating income or diluted EPS, the most directly comparable GAAP metrics to adjusted operating income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, respectively.

The Company’s outlook (and related assumptions) for the second quarter and full-year fiscal 2026 include an anticipated non-GAAP adjustment related to CEO transition costs of approximately $2 million to $3 million. If the Company were to receive refunds of previously paid tariffs, the Company intends to treat such refunds as non-GAAP adjustments in the appropriate period.

For fiscal year 2026 (a 52 week fiscal year), the Company projects approximately:

  • Low single-digit to mid-single-digit percentage growth in net sales ($2.898 billion in fiscal 2025);

  • Low single-digit to mid-single-digit percentage growth in adjusted operating income ($176 million in fiscal 2025);

  • Low double-digit to mid-teens percentage decline in adjusted diluted earnings per share ($3.47 in fiscal 2025);

  • Operating cash flow of $110 million to $120 million; and

  • Capital expenditures of $55 million.

The Company’s outlook for fiscal year 2026 assumes (comparisons vs. prior year unless otherwise noted):

  • Earnings contributions weighted to the second half due to greater projected net impact of tariffs and investment spending in the first half relative to the second half;

  • Lower gross margin rate, reflecting incremental tariff costs partially offset by higher pricing, other tariff mitigation actions, and productivity savings;

  • Low-single digit increase in SG&A, reflecting organizational restructuring and store fleet rationalization savings offset by investments in demand creation, information technology, and other cost inflation across the business;

  • Net interest expense of approximately $40 million, reflecting higher principal amount and coupon rate associated with the refinancing of its senior notes in Q4 2025;

  • Effective tax rate of approximately 22%; and

  • Average number of shares outstanding of approximately 36 million.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company projects approximately:

  • Low-single-digit percentage growth in net sales ($585 million in Q2 fiscal 2025);

  • $11 million to $13 million in adjusted operating income ($12 million in Q2 fiscal 2025); and

  • $0.02 to $0.06 in adjusted diluted earnings per share ($0.17 in Q2 fiscal 2025).

The Company’s outlook for second quarter fiscal 2026 assumes (comparisons vs. prior year unless otherwise noted):

  • Earlier Easter holiday (2026 vs 2025);

  • Lower gross margin rate, reflecting higher net incremental tariff costs, partially offset by higher planned pricing, supply chain mitigation actions, and productivity improvements;

  • Low single-digit increase in SG&A, reflecting organizational restructuring savings offset by investments in demand creation and other cost inflation across the business;

  • Net interest expense of approximately $10 million, reflecting higher principal amount and coupon rate associated with the refinancing of its senior notes in Q4 2025;

  • Average number of shares outstanding of approximately 36 million.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental financial measures that are not defined or prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items described in footnotes (a) – (e) to the table above.

 

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These measures also afford investors a view of what management considers to be the Company’s core performance.

 

The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA instead of net income or cash flows from operations has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent net income or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. While EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements, these terms are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us for working capital, debt service and other purposes.

The Company evaluates its net sales on both an “as reported” and a “constant currency” basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that occurred between the comparative periods. Constant currency net sales results are calculated by translating current period net sales in local currency to the U.S. dollar amount by using the currency conversion rate for the prior comparative period. The Company consistently applies this approach to net sales for all countries where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. The Company believes that the presentation of net sales on a constant currency basis provides useful supplemental information regarding changes in our net sales that were not due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates and such information is consistent with how the Company assesses changes in its net sales between comparative periods.

BlackRock Aladdin Expands Private Credit Solutions on Preqin for Greater Transparency and Insights across the Asset Class

BlackRock Aladdin Expands Private Credit Solutions on Preqin for Greater Transparency and Insights across the Asset Class

Preqin expands private credit data across closedend, BDC and semiliquid vehicles, adds analytics and research products to unlock insights on a single platform

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
BlackRock Aladdin today announced new private credit capabilities on Preqin, marking the first step in a broader effort to bring greater transparency, analytical depth, and a single connected view of data to the private credit space. With an expansion of private credit data, benchmarks and analytics, Preqin Pro enables investors to analyze market trends, fund dynamics and underlying assets together, across closed‑end funds, Business Development Companies (BDCs) and semi‑liquid vehicles, all within a unified research and analytics experience.

As private credit markets scale and diversify, clients are seeking clearer, more connected insights across liquidity, risk and performance. The latest enhancements to Preqin begin to address a market gap, delivering consistent, standardized intelligence across private credit that underscores BlackRock’s commitment to evolving its global platform to meet client needs across their entire portfolio.

“Private credit is becoming a core part of portfolios, but the data remains fragmented, making it difficult for investors to understand their risk and benchmark their performance,” said Kunal Khara, Global Head of Aladdin Product at BlackRock. “This expansion brings together Aladdin technology with Preqin and eFront data and analytics to create a more unified, transparent and robust view of private credit. It’s another step toward our mission to build a more connected ecosystem that helps clients better understand risk, performance and opportunity across their whole portfolio.”

The new private credit suite available today includes:

  • Creating a holistic view of the private credit market from fund to asset across fund types,strategies, asset types and issuers, spanning closed-end funds, BDCs and other semi-liquid structures.
  • New asset-level benchmarks introduce standardized ways that converge the full spectrum of the BDC and closed ended universes, now allowing users to assess risk and performance trends across money multiples, valuation trends, leverage ratios, defaults and recoveries, equity cushion multiples and borrower financials.
  • Enhanced BDC analytics, leveraging Aladdin technology to move beyond fund-level reporting and static reporting, and provide insight into underlying exposures, risk and performance.
  • Integrated AI-powered analytics and research enable users to interrogate market, fund and asset data within a single environment, synthesize with custom visual insights.

This launch is the first in a series of product enhancements that will deliver on Aladdin’s mission to help clients capture the expanding opportunity in private credit, aiming to bring a greater level of transparency through data, analytics and reporting across the whole portfolio.

The enhanced private credit capabilities support a broad range of market participants. For LPs, analytics‑led insight embedded in the platform provides clearer visibility into performance, risk, liquidity and exposure, while service providers gain a consistent, market wide view to support valuation, advisory, regulatory, and transaction workflows. For GPs, the platform connects standardized, cleaned, and benchmarked loan‑level data across BDCs and closed‑ended private credit to support investment decisions and risk management.

“I’m pleased with our strong first‑quarter results, which put us on solid footing for the year,” said Justin Palfreyman, President and CEO of NW Natural Holding Company. “These results reflect our continued focus on building a consistent track record of disciplined execution. We made progress on our key regulatory initiatives and delivered solid operational performance, efficient capital investment, and healthy customer growth across all three of our regulated utility businesses.

EPS growth forecasted for period 2026 – 2030 compounded annually; EPS growth rate uses adjusted 2025 EPS as base year. Long-term growth rate target with MX3 assumes in-service date prior to the end of 2029. NW Natural Holdings does not provide a reconciliation of the adjusted EPS growth rate target to the most directly comparable GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain significant items.

KEY EVENTS

Reached Settlement in NW Natural’s Washington General Rate Case

On March, 23, 2026, NW Natural Gas Company (NW Natural) filed a multi-party settlement with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (WUTC) that addresses all the revenue requirement items in the multi-year general rate case. The settlement provides increases to the annual revenue requirement over three years, consisting of a $20.1 million revenue increase in the first year beginning Aug. 1, 2026, a $7.7 million revenue increase in the second year, and an $8.7 million revenue increase in the third year. The settlement includes a capital structure of 50% common equity and 50% long-term debt, a return on equity of 9.5%, and an overall cost of capital of 7.15% beginning in the first year and growing to 7.22% in the third year. Rate base is $328.0 million in the first year, or an increase of $80.7 million since the last rate case. The settlement is subject to the review and approval of the WUTC. New rates are expected to be effective Aug. 1, 2026.

SiEnergy Filed a General Rate Case

On May 4, 2026, SiEnergy filed a general rate case with the Texas Railroad Commission (RRC). The filing requests the consolidation of SiEnergy and the Pines gas entities, a $12.0 million revenue increase, a capital structure of 60% common equity and 40% long-term debt, an 8.73% cost of capital, and a 10.75% return on equity. The filing includes rate base of $343.1 million or an increase of $176.9 million since the last rate case. SiEnergy is requesting the factors necessary to file for interim rate adjustments under the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program (GRIP). New rates are expected to be effective in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Continued Progress on MX3 Storage Expansion Project

NW Natural continues to make progress on the 4 – 5 Bcf expansion of its Mist gas storage facility, including receiving the necessary permits and working on Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contracts. These new storage services will be regulated by FERC. Customers have agreed to a fixed 12.5% return on equity, and a capital structure of 50% equity and 50% long-term debt. Capital expenditures for the project are expected to total approximately $300 million. NW Natural continues to expect Notice to Proceed by late 2027 and MX3 to be in service by the end of 2029.

2026 GUIDANCE AND LONG-TERM TARGETS

We are reaffirming our 2026 guidance and long-term targets. This guidance assumes continued customer growth, average weather conditions, and no significant changes in prevailing regulatory policies, mechanisms, or assumed outcomes, or significant local, state or federal laws, legislation or regulations. Required funds for the capital expenditures are expected to be internally generated or financed with long-term debt or equity, as appropriate.

Segment EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure, which takes segment net income calculated in accordance with GAAP and divides it by the diluted shares outstanding of NW Natural Holdings. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for additional information. The reconciliation of segment EPS to consolidated NW Natural Holdings EPS is shown in the table above.

2

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation to GAAP” for additional information on Other and consolidated adjusted net income and adjusted EPS.

NW Natural net income increased $2.7 million (or decreased $0.02 per share). Margin increased due to new rates from the Oregon rate case effective Oct. 31, 2025 and net income increased due to a lower income tax rate. These drivers were partially offset by higher depreciation and operations and maintenance (O&M) expense, as well as the impact of financing activities including higher interest expense and share issuances.

SiEnergy net income increased $3.6 million (or $0.08 per share) driven in part by customer growth and investments in the system. Additionally, the first quarter of 2026 reflected a full quarter of both SiEnergy (acquired on Jan. 7, 2025) and Pines (acquired on June 2, 2025) net income, which had a positive effect on year-over-year results.

NWN Water net income decreased $0.3 million (or $0.01 per share) mainly reflecting higher O&M expense to support growth and depreciation expense, partially offset by higher operating revenues driven by healthy organic customer growth and acquisitions.

Othernet loss decreased $3.5 million (or $0.10 per share). On an adjusted basis, which excludes the SiEnergy transaction costs in the first quarter 2025, net loss decreased $0.4 million (flat on a per share basis).

DIVIDEND DECLARED

The board of directors of NW Natural Holdings declared a quarterly dividend of $0.4925 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable on May 15, 2026 to shareholders of record on April 30, 2026. The Company’s current indicated annual dividend rate is $1.97 per share. Future dividends are subject to board of director discretion and approval.

They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future operational, economic or financial performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed by reference to the factors described in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, and Part II, Item 7 and Item 7A “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Part I, Items 2 and 3 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”, and Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in the quarterly reports filed thereafter, which, among others, outline legal, regulatory and legislative risks, financial, macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, growth and strategic risks, operational risks, business continuity and technology risks, environmental risks and risks related to our water and renewables businesses.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Management uses “adjusted net income”, “adjusted earnings per share,” “adjusted segment net loss,” “segment earnings per share” and “adjusted segment earnings per share,” each of which are non-GAAP financial measures, when evaluating NW Natural Holdings’ overall performance. Management uses non-GAAP measures in making operating decisions because we believe those measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our earning potential and performance for management by excluding certain expenses and charges that may not be indicative of our core business operating results and can affect the comparison of period-over-period results. These adjustments may include transaction and business development costs primarily consisting of professional fees including legal, accounting, financial and other professional fees incurred in connection with business combinations and business development activities. In addition to presenting the results of operations and earnings amounts in total, certain financial measures are expressed in cents per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. All references to EPS are on the basis of diluted shares.

Such non-GAAP financial measures are used to analyze our financial performance because we believe they provide useful information to our investors and creditors in evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Moreover, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of the business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than how such measures are calculated in this report, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the tables below.

Adobe’s New Productivity Agent Redefines How People Understand, Create and Share Information

Adobe’s New Productivity Agent Redefines How People Understand, Create and Share Information

  • New productivity agent enables people to chat with PDFs, surface insights and quickly create presentations, podcasts, blogs and social posts from their documents

  • Productivity agent is powering new sharing and publishing capabilities in PDF Spaces in Acrobat that turn static files into interactive experiences with customized AI assistants that represent senders’ tone and intent; now available in Acrobat Express and Acrobat Studio

  • Top creators and brands including VICE News, Kid Cudi, Jessica Yellin and Mindy Weiss are using Acrobat’s new sharing and publishing capabilities to build deeper trust and engagement with their audiences

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Adobe (Nasdaq:ADBE) – the global technology leader that unleashes creativity, productivity and customer experiences through innovative tools and platforms – unveiled Adobe’s productivity agent, which brings decades of Acrobat document intelligence into a single agentic interface to transform how people understand, create and share information. The agent orchestrates tools and models to generate images, text and rich content like presentations, podcasts and social posts and power conversational PDF editing in Acrobat. It also unlocks the new sharing and publishing capabilities in PDF Spaces, an AI-powered workspace where you can combine files, links and notes to do research, get insights and create content.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260506452996/en/

The productivity agent powers new sharing and publishing capabilities in PDF Spaces, an AI-powered workspace where you can combine files, links and notes to do research, get insights and create content.

The productivity agent powers new sharing and publishing capabilities in PDF Spaces, an AI-powered workspace where you can combine files, links and notes to do research, get insights and create content.

The new productivity agent and sharing capabilities are available in Acrobat Express – a new offer that combines AI-powered document insights, premium content generation and information sharing all in one place – and in Acrobat Studio, which includes all features in Acrobat Express along with AI PDF tools.

Adobe’s productivity agent is part of a broader agentic vision that’s redefining how people work. Designed to operate seamlessly with Adobe’s creative agent and agents developed by third parties, it works across documents, data and systems to execute tactics and orchestrate outcomes – freeing people to focus on the vision, the judgment and the work that only they can do. Adobe’s creative agent is transforming how people create; the productivity agent orchestrates everything necessary so people can get insights faster, generate rich content quickly and share knowledge with interactive experiences. Together, they represent Adobe’s commitment to keeping humans at the center of an agentic future.

“Adobe’s productivity agent is redefining how people work with information,” said David Wadhwani, President, Creativity & Productivity Business, Adobe. “We’re bringing together decades of Acrobat’s document intelligence with agents to help people discover insights faster, generate visually rich content effortlessly and share interactive experiences with customized agents that convey their tone and intent.”

Setting a New Standard for Sharing

Adobe invented PDF, which has defined how the world shares its most important information. Today people open more than 400 billion PDFs and send more than 200 million PDFs in Acrobat every year. With the new publishing and sharing capabilities in Acrobat, the company is setting the next standard, transforming documents and files into interactive, personalized experiences that inform, engage and drive action. The productivity agent works behind the scenes, generating titles, summaries and audio overviews from documents and links in a PDF Space. Senders can add context, reorder files to provide emphasis and customize an AI Assistant for the shared experience that answers questions, provides suggestions and helps recipients easily get the information they need.

This new format enables people to:

  • Create a tailored space. Bring PDFs, documents, links and notes together in one place. The agent quickly generates the space, so the sender can focus on refining the experience with context, structure, emphasis and multimedia content so recipients can focus on what matters most. When documents are updated, the shared experience updates, too, so recipients always have the latest information.
  • Customize an AI Assistant to fit the moment. Tell the AI Assistant about your goals and recipients. Share it along with the experience to answer questions, provide suggestions and help recipients get the information they need to make confident decisions.
  • Get recipients up to speed fast with an audio overview. The agent automatically generates an audio summary of the information to help orient recipients before they dive in. A fully editable script helps ensure the right message comes through every time.
  • Add your brand. Include a logo and color palate to create a professional, on-brand experience.
  • Follow up with confidence. The agent provides engagement insights to help make follow-up timely and informed.

“We’re not just adding new features, we’re introducing a new format,” said Abhigyan Modi, SVP, Adobe Document Cloud. “For the first time, sharing documents means sharing an experience that’s tailored to your intended audience, whether that’s a client, a team or a million subscribers. Now every one of those experiences can be as personal and purposeful as the work that went into creating it.”

Share With a Single Person, a Team or Millions

Leading publishers and creators are already using shared experiences in PDF Spaces to build trust and deeper engagement with their audiences. VICE News, best known for its immersive on-the-ground reporting that tackles complex global issues in a real and authentic way, will leverage PDF Spaces in Acrobat in its on-the-ground reporting and cross-platform content reaching more than 20 million followers. The new capabilities in PDF Spaces are enabling VICE News to create interactive, explorable experiences layering primary documents, research and supporting materials directly alongside published stories. Audiences can use an AI assistant to go deeper into every story, exploring sources, following threads of curiosity and engaging further with reporting.

Grammy-winning artist, actor, and cultural icon Kid Cudi and his team are using PDF Spaces to prepare for his new podcast series, Big Bro with Kid Cudi, and help fans go deeper into episodes with behind-the-scenes exclusives, guest stories, and Big Bro advice from Cudi himself. Jessica Yellin, award-winning journalist and founder of News Not Noise, a platform dedicated to making sense of the news for a community of millions, is using PDF Spaces to give her audience rich background on the stories she shares. Mindy Weiss, celebrated event planner and tastemaker whose designs have shaped some of the most iconic celebrations in pop culture, is using PDF Spaces to share her wedding planning expertise so her followers can create the moment of their dreams.

The new sharing capabilities unlock new ways for everyone to engage colleagues and managers, customers and prospects or friends and family.

Sales teams can combine proposals and case studies into a single branded experience, so every stakeholder gets a consistent, compelling story and engagement insights that tell reps who to follow up with and how. Marketers can turn research and launch announcements into guided experiences that move audiences to action. HR and compliance leaders can share onboarding packages and policy updates while engagement data helps them understand where employees need more support. Executives and finance teams can distribute board pre-reads and investor briefings as cohesive, guided narratives that give stakeholders everything they need to make informed decisions.

PDF Spaces also makes it easy to share information in everyday life. From travel itineraries to community updates, anyone can create an interactive experience that gives people everything they need in one place without endless email chains or group texts.

Learn more about how people can use the new sharing features in PDF Spaces in Acrobat.

Pricing and Availability

The new productivity agent and sharing and publishing capabilities are now available in Adobe Acrobat AI Plans, including Acrobat Studio, the essential productivity solution with a complete set of PDF tools, PDF Spaces, AI Assistant and Adobe Express Premium. They’re also available in Acrobat Express, a new offering that combines AI-powered document insights, premium content generation and information and sharing all in one place. PDF Spaces can be viewed by anyone; no account required.

First Quarter 2026 Key Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Metrics

  • Total revenue was approximately $4.6 billion for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $3.0 billion for the first quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by higher membership and rate increases, partially offset by an increase in the net risk adjustment transfer accrual.

  • The medical loss ratio was 70.5% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 75.4% for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to our disciplined pricing strategy, claims and risk adjustment seasonality from metal and new member mix, and favorable prior period reserve development. The Company had $68 million of favorable development in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $31 million of unfavorable development in the first quarter of 2025.

  • The SG&A expense ratio was 15.2% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 15.8% for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to greater fixed cost leverage and disciplined cost management, partially offset by the impact of higher risk adjustment as a percentage of premium.

  • Earnings from operations was $704.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to earnings from operations of $297.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. The significant increase reflects strong operating performance driven primarily by higher membership, rate increases, favorable prior period development, and fixed cost leverage.

  • Net income attributable to Oscar Health, Inc. was $679.0 million, or $2.07 of diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to Net income attributable to Oscar Health, Inc. of $275.3 million, or $0.92 of diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2025.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was $727.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $328.8 million for the first quarter of 2025.

Key Operating and Non-GAAP Financial Metrics

We regularly review the following key operating and Non-GAAP financial metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions. We believe these operational and financial measures are useful in evaluating our performance, in addition to our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Total Revenue

Total revenue includes premium revenue (net of risk adjustment transfers), investment income, and other revenues. We believe total revenue is an important metric to assess the growth of our business, as well as the earnings potential of our investment portfolio.

MLR

MLR is a metric used to calculate medical expenses as a percentage of net premiums before ceded quota share reinsurance. The impact of the federal risk adjustment program is included in the denominator of our MLR. We believe MLR is an important metric to demonstrate the ratio of our costs to pay for healthcare of our members to the net premium before ceded quota share reinsurance.

SG&A Expense Ratio

The SG&A expense ratio reflects the Company’s selling, general, and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total revenue (net of risk adjustment transfers). We believe the SG&A expense ratio is useful to evaluate our ability to manage our overall selling, general, and administrative cost base.

Earnings (Loss) from Operations

Earnings (loss) from operations is the Company’s total revenue less total operating expenses. We believe earnings (loss) from operations is an important primary metric for assessing operating performance.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oscar Health, Inc.

Net income (loss) attributable to Oscar Health, Inc. is net earnings (loss) allocated to the Company after net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. It is a key indicator of the Company’s profitability and operational efficiency, allowing management to evaluate performance and make informed decisions on strategic planning, cost management, and resource allocation.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net income (loss) for the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted for stock-based compensation and other items that are considered unusual or not representative of underlying trends of our business, where applicable for the period presented. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.

By providing this non-GAAP financial measure, together with a reconciliation to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, Net income (loss), we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for, net income (loss) or other financial statement data presented in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as indicators of financial performance.

Risk Adjustment

The risk adjustment programs in the markets the Company serves are administered federally by CMS and are designed to mitigate the potential impact of adverse selection and provide stability for health insurers. Under these programs, each plan is assigned a risk score based upon demographic information and current year claims information related to its members. Plans with lower than average risk scores generally pay into the pool, while plans with higher than average risk scores generally receive distributions. The following table provides a rollforward of the Company’s beginning and ending risk adjustment receivable and payable balances for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

LivaNova Reports First-Quarter 2026 Results; Raises Full-Year 2026 Revenue and Adjusted Diluted EPS Guidance

LivaNova Reports First-Quarter 2026 Results; Raises Full-Year 2026 Revenue and Adjusted Diluted EPS Guidance

Delivered double-digit reported and constant-currency revenue growth

Raised full-year 2026 revenue and adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance(1)

Received U.S. Food and Drug Administration premarket approval for aura6000 System to treat moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
LivaNova PLC (Nasdaq: LIVN), a market-leading medical technology company, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 and raised full-year 2026 guidance.

Financial Summary and Highlights(1)

  • First-quarter revenue of $362.3 million increased 14.3% on a reported basis and 11.1% on a constant-currency basis as compared to the prior-year period

  • First-quarter U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.40 and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.98

  • First-quarter net cash provided by operating activities of $15.2 million and adjusted free cash flow of $3.8 million

  • Raised full-year 2026 revenue growth range by 100 basis points to 7.0% to 8.0% on a constant-currency basis. Raised full-year 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share range by $0.05 at midpoint to $4.20 to $4.30. Maintained full-year 2026 adjusted free cash flow range of $160 million to $180 million

  • Received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) premarket approval (PMA) for the aura6000™ System for the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The System is the first and only hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) device FDA-approved without a contraindication or warning related to complete concentric collapse and without a requirement for a pre-implantation drug-induced sleep endoscopy

  • In April 2026, announced the publication of the full 12-month results from the OSPREY randomized controlled trial for OSA in the Annals of Internal Medicine, demonstrating proximal hypoglossal nerve stimulation (pHGNS) yields clinically significant responses and sustained improvements over time

“In the first quarter, LivaNova delivered double‑digit revenue growth with strength across all regions, driven by sustained performance in our Cardiopulmonary and Epilepsy businesses,” said Vladimir Makatsaria, Chief Executive Officer of LivaNova. “We also made meaningful progress in Obstructive Sleep Apnea, accomplishing key regulatory and clinical milestones. These achievements support a solid foundation for entry into the high‑growth, high‑margin OSA market with a differentiated technology. Our updated 2026 guidance reflects strong execution in the core businesses alongside continued investment to unlock this next phase of growth and value creation. We remain focused on disciplined execution as we advance our long‑term strategy, consistent with what we outlined at our November 2025 Investor Day.”

Constant-currency percent change, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted free cash flow are non-GAAP measures. Constant-currency percent change excludes the impact from fluctuations in the various currencies in which the Company operates as compared to reported percent change. For an explanation of these and other non-GAAP measures used in this news release, see the section entitled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” For reconciliations of certain non-GAAP measures, see the tables that accompany this news release. As discussed in the section entitled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below, the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reconcile forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts.

• Numbers may not add precisely due to rounding.

First-quarter 2026 Cardiopulmonary revenue increased 18.3% on a reported basis and 14.0% on a constant-currency basis versus the first quarter of 2025 with growth across all regions, driven by Essenz™Perfusion System sales, strong consumables demand, and favorable realized price.

First-quarter 2026 Neuromodulation revenue increased 9.3% on a reported basis and 7.6% on a constant-currency basis versus the first quarter of 2025 with growth across all regions, driven by total implant growth and favorable realized price.

Earnings Analysis

On a U.S. GAAP basis, first-quarter 2026 operating income was $41.5 million, as compared to operating income of $48.6 million for the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating income for the first quarter of 2026 was $71.1 million, as compared to adjusted operating income of $64.6 million for the first quarter of 2025.

On a U.S. GAAP basis, first-quarter 2026 diluted earnings per share was $0.40 as compared to diluted loss per share of $6.01 in the first quarter of 2025, which was impacted by recording the SNIA environmental liability expense of $360.4 million. First-quarter 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.98, as compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.88 in the first quarter of 2025.

Full-Year 2026 Guidance

LivaNova now expects full-year 2026 revenue to grow between 7.0% and 8.0% (versus 6.0% and 7.0% prior) on a constant-currency basis. Foreign currency is expected to be a tailwind of approximately 1.0% based on current exchange rates, consistent with prior guidance.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share for 2026 is now expected to be in the range of $4.20 to $4.30 (versus $4.15 to $4.25 prior), assuming a share count of approximately 56 million for full-year 2026. In 2026, the Company estimates adjusted free cash flow in the range of $160 million to $180 million, consistent with prior guidance.

As discussed in the section entitled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below, the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reconcile the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this section to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts.

To supplement financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP or GAAP), management has disclosed certain additional measures not presented in accordance with GAAP known as “non-GAAP financial measures” or “adjusted financial measures.” Company management uses these non-GAAP measures to monitor the Company’s operational performance and for benchmarking against other medical technology companies. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, operational performance measures as prescribed by GAAP.

In this news release, the Company refers to revenue and percentage change in revenue on a comparable, constant-currency basis. Company management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a useful way to evaluate the revenue performance of LivaNova and to compare the revenue performance of current periods to prior periods on a consistent basis. Constant-currency percent change measures the change in revenue between current and prior-year periods using average exchange rates in effect during the applicable prior-year period.

LivaNova calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For example, forward-looking net revenue growth projections are estimated on a constant-currency basis and exclude the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance excludes items such as, but not limited to, changes in fair value of certain derivatives and contingent consideration arrangements and asset impairment charges that would be included in comparable GAAP financial measures. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment excluding the impact of 3T litigation settlement payments, cybersecurity incident insurance proceeds, SNIA environmental liability and related financing costs, and gains related to dividends received from investments and further adjusted as needed for other charges, expenses, or gains that may not be indicative of the Company’s operational performance. However, non-GAAP financial adjustments on a forward-looking basis are subject to uncertainty and variability as they are dependent on many factors, including but not limited to, the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations, impacts from potential acquisitions or divestitures, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, gains or losses on the potential sale of businesses or other assets, restructuring costs, merger and integration activities, changes in fair value of derivatives, and contingent consideration arrangements, asset impairment charges and the tax impact of the aforementioned items, tax law changes, or other tax matters. Accordingly, the Company does not reconcile non-GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis as it is impractical to do so without unreasonable effort.

Adjusted financial measures such as adjusted cost of sales, adjusted gross profit, adjusted selling, general, and administrative expense, adjusted research and development expense, adjusted other operating expense, adjusted operating income, adjusted income before income tax, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are measures that LivaNova generally uses to facilitate management review of the operational performance of the company, to serve as a basis for strategic planning, and in the design of incentive compensation plans. Additionally, the Company uses the non-GAAP liquidity measure adjusted free cash flow. The Company believes that the presentation of these adjusted financial measures allows investors to evaluate the Company’s operational performance for different periods on a more comparable and consistent basis, and with other medical technology companies by adjusting for items that are not related to the operational performance of the Company or incurred in the ordinary course of business.

Safe Harbor Statement

Certain statements in this news release, other than statements of historical or current fact, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These statements include, but are not limited to, LivaNova’s plans, objectives, strategies, financial performance and outlook, trends, the amount and timing of future cash distributions, prospects, or future events, and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. As a result, the Company’s actual financial results, performance, achievements, or prospects may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Generally, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “seek,” “guidance,” “predict,” “potential,” “likely,” “believe,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend,” “forecast,” “foresee,” or variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by LivaNova and its management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, are inherently uncertain. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and shareholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks, uncertainties, and other important factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, and include, but are not limited to, the following risks and uncertainties: volatility in the global market and worldwide economic conditions; adverse changes in export and import costs and other trade restrictions as well as uncertainty over global tariffs; risks relating to supply chain pressures; failure to protect, maintain, or upgrade LivaNova’s IT systems or products, or safeguard against cybersecurity incidents, service disruptions, or data corruption; costs of complying with privacy and security of personal information requirements and laws; changes in technology, including the development of superior or alternative technology or devices by competitors and/or competition from providers of alternative medical therapies; risks related to AI integration and regulation; failure of investments, alliances, acquisitions, or divestitures to achieve expected returns; failure to maintain appropriate working relationships with healthcare professionals to aid in the continuing development of products; the risk of quality issues and the impacts thereof; risks relating to recalls, replacement of inventory, enforcement actions, or product liability claims; failure to comply with, or changes in, laws, regulations, or administrative practices affecting government regulation of the Company’s products; failure to retain talent, maintain an effective succession plan, and negotiate successfully with local works councils; failure to obtain or maintain approvals, clearance, or reimbursement in relation to the Company’s products; unfavorable results from clinical studies or failure to meet milestones; global healthcare policy changes that may lead to restricted access and pricing as well as payback requirements and limited reimbursement; failure to comply with rules relating to healthcare goods and services as well as anti-bribery laws; the unfavorable impact of pending or existing climate change; product liability, intellectual property, shareholder-related, environmental-related, income tax, and other litigation, disputes, losses, and costs, including in the case of the Company’s 3T Heater-Cooler litigation; risks associated with environmental laws and regulations as well as environmental liabilities, violations, and litigation, including in the case of Saluggia and SNIA; failure to protect the Company’s proprietary intellectual property; changes in tax laws and regulations, including exposure to additional income tax liabilities; risks relating to the Company’s indebtedness; risks associated with potential government shutdowns; the potential for impairments of intangible assets, goodwill, and other long-lived assets; risks associated with public health crises; risks associated with shareholder activism; effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting; changes in the Company’s profitability and/or failure to manage costs and expenses; fluctuations in future quarterly operating results and/or variations in revenue and operating expenses relative to estimates; and other unknown or unpredictable factors that could harm the Company’s financial performance.

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the Company’s business, including those described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by LivaNova.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the Company’s forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this news release. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of the forward-looking statements in this news release to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law. If LivaNova updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that the Company will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

(8)

The impact of valuation allowances, discrete tax items, the tax impact of intercompany transactions, and the tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments

(9)

The denominator used to calculate the impact of non-GAAP adjustments on a per share basis and adjusted diluted earnings per share includes dilution from LivaNova’s share-based compensation awards that was excluded from the calculation of GAAP diluted loss per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. See the reconciliation of GAAP diluted weighted average shares outstanding, used in the computation of GAAP diluted loss per share, to adjusted diluted weighted average shares outstanding, used in the computation of adjusted diluted earnings per share, at the end of this news release.
