Generated second quarter revenue of $200.6 million
Second quarter diluted EPS of $0.01; adjusted diluted EPS of $0.14
Second quarter operating cash flow of $23.2 million
Announced strategic growth plan designed to unlock and redeploy $30 million for growth initiatives

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE: INSP) (Inspire, or the Company), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative, minimally invasive solutions for patients with obstructive sleep apnea, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

“Our second quarter results reflect the increased discipline and focus we are bringing to the business as we continue to support customers through the evolving coding and reimbursement environment and invest in the long-term adoption of Inspire therapy,” said Tim Herbert, Chairman and CEO of Inspire Medical Systems. “We are also announcing a strategic growth plan designed to generate approximately $30 million of annualized growth investment capacity, which we intend to redeploy into targeted growth initiatives. We believe these actions will strengthen our operating foundation, sharpen our focus on the highest-return opportunities, and position Inspire for sustainable growth and long-term value creation.”

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results (Second Quarter 2026 compared to Second Quarter 2025)

Revenue decreased 7.6% to $200.6 million, primarily driven by a decline in U.S. revenue, partially offset by growth in International revenue. The U.S. decline was driven primarily by the impacts of evolving coding and reimbursement environment.
Gross margin increased 150 bps to 85.5%, primarily due to increased sales mix of the Inspire V system, which has a higher gross margin than the Inspire IV system.
Operating expenses decreased $13.8 million, or 7.4%, to $172.0 million, primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation costs due to accelerated stock-based compensation expenses recognized in the prior year period as well as lower marketing expenses.
Operating earnings increased $2.8 million to an operating loss of $0.5 million, and operating margin of (0.3)%. Adjusted operating income was $3.2 million, and adjusted operating margin was 1.6%.
Interest and dividend income, net decreased by $0.7 million, primarily due to lower average interest rates and lower average cash, cash equivalents, and investment balances.
Other expense, net decreased by $3.4 million, primarily due to a $4.0 million impairment charge recognized in the prior year period, partially offset by a decrease in interest and dividend income in the current period due to lower average interest rates and lower average cash, cash equivalents, and investment balances in the current period.
The effective tax rate was 89.9% compared to (54.0)%. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by tax shortfall related to stock-based compensation. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against federal and state deferred tax assets, which was subsequently released at December 31, 2025.
Net earnings was $0.3 million and adjusted net earnings was $4.0 million.
Diluted EPS was $0.01 and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.14.

Financial Condition

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $23.2 million, compared to $2.7 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily driven by improved working capital, primarily in receivables and inventories.
As of June 30, 2026, cash, cash equivalents, and investments increased $10.6 million to $415.2 million as compared to December 31, 2025.

Full Year 2026 Guidance

The Company is raising its previously announced revenue outlook to be in the range of $835 million to $875 million. Additionally, the Company now expects annual adjusted operating margin to be in the range of 4% to 6%, diluted EPS to be in the range of $(0.42) to $0.17 and adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of $1.05 to $1.45.

The Company’s outlook assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 95% to 100% and an adjusted effective tax rate of 30% to 35%, estimated weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 29.4 million, and capital expenditures between $35 million to $40 million.

Strategic Growth Plan

On August 3, 2026, the Company announced a strategic growth plan, named Project Horizon, intended to create additional investment capacity to accelerate revenue growth through:

Aligning resources to revenue growth initiatives;
Streamlining the organization; and
Optimizing the Company’s supply chain by consolidating production to support quality, scale, and efficiency.

The Company expects to incur a total of $20 million to $25 million of pre-tax restructuring charges in connection with the first phase of Project Horizon, including approximately $4 million to $5 million of employee-related costs, and $16 million to $20 million of other expenses, which will be non-cash in nature. These actions are expected to generate approximately $30 million of annualized growth investment capacity which is expected to be invested in revenue growth initiatives. The Company expects the majority of actions related to the restructuring to be completed in the third quarter and all actions to be substantially complete by the end of 2026.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including without limitation, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted earnings before income taxes, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per diluted share ("EPS"), adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin, which differ from financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

We define adjusted operating income as operating income or loss adjusted for items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Operating income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted operating income. We define adjusted operating margin in this release as adjusted operating income divided by revenue. Operating margin is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted operating margin. Adjusted earnings before income taxes is defined as earnings before income taxes, adjusted for items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Earnings before income taxes is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted income tax expense is defined as income tax expense, adjusted for items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Adjusted effective tax rate is adjusted income tax expense divided by adjusted earnings before income taxes. Income tax expense is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net earnings is defined as net earnings or loss, adjusted for items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Net earnings or loss is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted net earnings. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share is calculated as adjusted net earnings divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Net earnings or loss per diluted share is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted net earnings per diluted share. We define adjusted EBITDA as net earnings or loss, less interest and dividend income, net, plus income tax expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus stock-based compensation expense, adjusted for items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Net earnings or loss is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted EBITDA margin in this release as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Net earnings or loss margin is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to adjusted EBITDA margin. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this press release.

These non-GAAP financial measures are presented because we believe they are useful indicators of our operating performance and facilitate a more meaningful trend analysis without the distortion of various adjustment items. Management uses these measures principally as measures of our underlying operating performance, trends, and for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating plan and financial projections. We believe these measures are useful to investors as supplemental information and because they are frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We also believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to our management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or superior to, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as measures of financial performance or cash flows from operations, as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and they should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax payments, capital expenditures, and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs, and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on our GAAP results in addition to using non-GAAP financial measures on a supplemental basis. These measures and their definitions are discussed in more detail below and our definition of these non-GAAP financial measures is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.
