Exhibit 99.1
Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2026
Financial Results
•Third quarter revenue of $206.7 million
•Third quarter diluted EPS of $(0.84); adjusted diluted EPS of $0.14
•Third quarter operating cash flow of $46.4 million
•AMA CPT® Editorial Panel approved new Category I CPT codes for single lead hypoglossal nerve stimulation, including Inspire V, set to take effect January 1, 2028
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - November 2, 2026 - 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 September 30, 2026.
“We are pleased to have delivered sequential growth in the third quarter, with U.S. performance coming in ahead of our expectations. Results suggest that, despite some lingering headwinds, there is greater comfort among implanting physicians with the current coding dynamic. We will stay disciplined in our education initiatives and focused on executing our strategic priorities as we finish out 2026 and plan for a return to growth in 2027,” said Tim Herbert, Chairman and CEO of Inspire Medical Systems.
“Looking further ahead, we were also pleased with the AMA Editorial Panel’s September approval of a new CPT® code for single lead HGNS devices, including the Inspire V system. When this takes effect in January 2028, a dedicated code set will give physicians and hospitals enhanced clarity around coding and reimbursement and, in turn, further enable patient access to Inspire therapy. With that progress, and the investment capacity we’re redirecting into high-impact revenue growth initiatives through Project Horizon, we believe we are positioned well for growth in the years ahead.”
Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results (Third Quarter 2026 compared to Third Quarter 2025)
•Revenue decreased 7.9% to $206.7 million, driven primarily by a decline in U.S. revenue. The U.S. revenue decline was primarily driven by the adverse impacts of coding and reimbursement challenges.
•Gross margin increased 20 bps to 86.0%, primarily due to increased sales mix of the Inspire V system, which has a higher gross margin than the Inspire IV system.
•Operating expenses increased $23.5 million, or 12.8%, to $206.6 million, primarily due to $24.1 million of restructuring charges, legal settlement expense of $7.0 million, and higher legal fees, partially offset by lower marketing expenses and lower stock-based compensation expense.
•Operating loss was $28.7 million, and operating margin was (13.9)%. Adjusted operating income was $1.9 million, and adjusted operating margin was 0.9%.
•The effective tax rate was 2.5% compared to 26.7%. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by the current period pre-tax loss and discrete tax charges related to restructuring. For the three months ended September 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 loss was $24.4 million and adjusted net earnings was $4.1 million.
•Diluted EPS was $(0.84) and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.14.
Financial Condition
•Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $46.4 million, compared to $68.5 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily driven by lower net earnings and lower collections on receivables due to the third quarter 2025 cash recovery following temporary issues with the implementation of a new invoice portal and delivery process in the second quarter of 2025.
•As of September 30, 2026, cash, cash equivalents, and investments increased $48.5 million to $453.1 million as compared to December 31, 2025.
Full Year 2026 Guidance
The Company is narrowing its previously announced revenue outlook to be in the range of $850 million to $860 million, compared to the previous range of $835 million to $875 million. Additionally, the Company now expects adjusted operating margin to be in the range of 4.5% to 5.5%, diluted EPS to be in the range of $(0.36) to $(0.10) and adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of $1.20 to $1.40.
The Company’s outlook assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 120% to 175% and an adjusted effective tax rate of 33% to 34%, estimated weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 28.9 million, and capital expenditures between $35 million to $40 million.

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.
Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding estimated financial and non-financial impacts from our strategic growth plan (including without limitation , the extent and manner of the use of investments in revenue growth initiatives as well as the time to complete the strategic growth plan) and potential impacts to our business (including potential actions and solutions, such as the new Category I CPT code for Inspire V set to take effect January 1, 2028 and final 2027 Medicare reimbursement payments, as well as timing of these impacts and any related clarity) associated with coding and reimbursement, and our expectations regarding our future growth prospects and full year 2026 financial outlook (including without limitation expectations for the impacts of coding and reimbursement, revenue, expected growth, adjusted operating margin, net earnings or loss per diluted share, adjusted net earnings per diluted share, effective tax rate, adjusted effective tax rate, weighted average diluted shares outstanding and capital expenditures).

These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: our dependency on our Inspire system for revenues; fluctuations in our financial results and the market price of our common stock; our ability to sustain or increase our profitability and our history of operating losses; commercial success and market acceptance of our Inspire therapy; our ability to achieve and maintain adequate and clear levels of coverage or reimbursement for our Inspire system or any future products we may seek to commercialize; competitive companies, technologies, and pharmaceuticals in our industry; our ability to expand our indications and develop and commercialize additional products and enhancements to our Inspire system; our ability to forecast demand and manage our inventory; our dependence on third-parties; risks related to consolidation in the healthcare industry; our ability to expand, manage, and maintain our direct sales and marketing organization, and to market and sell our Inspire system in markets outside of the United States; our ability to manage our growth; risks related to product liability claims and warranty claims; our ability to address quality issues that may arise with our Inspire system; any failure of key information technology systems, processes, or sites or damage to or inability to access our physical facilities; any violations of anti-bribery, anti-corruption, and anti-money laundering laws; future needs for additional financing; risks related to our tax assets and changes in tax laws; our ability to timely commercialize or obtain regulatory approvals or certifications for our Inspire therapy and system; U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or other United States or foreign regulatory actions affecting us or the healthcare industry generally; our ability to establish and maintain intellectual property protection for our Inspire therapy and system or avoid claims of infringement; and our strategic growth plan may not achieve our intended outcome.
Other important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contemplated in this press release can be found under the captions “Risk Factors” and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations“ in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Investors page of our website at www.inspiresleep.com. These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this press release. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this press release. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by applicable law, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. Thus, one should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date after the date of this press release.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘could,’’ “future,” “outlook,” “guidance,” ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘target,’’ ‘‘project,’’ ‘‘contemplate,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘predict,’’ ‘‘potential,’’ ‘‘continue,’’ or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: our dependency on our Inspire system for revenues; fluctuations in our financial results and the market price of our common stock; our ability to sustain or increase our profitability and our history of operating losses; commercial success and market acceptance of our Inspire therapy; our ability to achieve and maintain adequate and clear levels of coverage or reimbursement for our Inspire system or any future products we may seek to commercialize; competitive companies, technologies, and pharmaceuticals in our industry; our ability to expand our indications and develop and commercialize additional products and enhancements to our Inspire system; our ability to forecast demand and manage our inventory; our dependence on third-parties; risks related to consolidation in the healthcare industry; our ability to expand, manage, and maintain our direct sales and marketing organization, and to market and sell our Inspire system in markets outside of the United States; our ability to manage our growth; risks related to product liability claims and warranty claims; our ability to address quality issues that may arise with our Inspire system; any failure of key information technology systems, processes, or sites or damage to or inability to access our physical facilities; any violations of anti-bribery, anti-corruption, and anti-money laundering laws; future needs for additional financing; risks related to our tax assets and changes in tax laws; our ability to timely commercialize or obtain regulatory approvals or certifications for our Inspire therapy and system; U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or other United States or foreign regulatory actions affecting us or the healthcare industry generally; our ability to establish and maintain intellectual property protection for our Inspire therapy and system or avoid claims of infringement; and our strategic growth plan may not achieve our intended outcome. Other important factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contemplated in this presentation can be found under the captions “Risk Factors” and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations“ in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Investors page of our website at www.inspiresleep.com. These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this presentation. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this presentation. While we may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by applicable law, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. Thus, one should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.

© Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Use of non-GAAP measures This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure have been provided along with the presentation. 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 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 in the presentation, 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 calculating. 33
