SAN DIEGO, CA May 8, 2024 — QuidelOrtho Corporation (Nasdaq: QDEL) (the “Company” or “QuidelOrtho”), a global provider of innovative in-vitro diagnostic technologies designed for point-of-care settings, clinical labs, and transfusion medicine, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
“During the first quarter, we achieved solid business performance with 6% top-line constant currency revenue growth across our global regions, excluding COVID-19 revenue,” said Michael S. Iskra, EVP and Chief Commercial Officer, QuidelOrtho. “Additionally, we have been steadfast in implementing company-wide cost initiatives, including margin restoration, which includes headcount reductions that are expected to deliver approximately $100 million in annualized savings. While these actions are never easy, they are a necessary step in positioning the Company for durable long-term growth.”
First Quarter 2024
The Company reported total revenue for the first quarter of 2024 of $711 million, compared to $846 million in the prior year period. The decrease in total revenue was primarily due to lower COVID-19 revenue in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year period. Foreign currency translation did not significantly impact first quarter 2024 results. GAAP diluted loss per share for the first quarter of 2024 was $25.50, compared to diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.73 in the prior year period. GAAP operating loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $1.76 billion, compared to operating income of $100 million in the prior year period. The first quarter of 2024 GAAP operating loss included a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $1.74 billion for the North America reporting unit due to the decrease in the estimated fair value, which was consistent with the decline in the Company’s market capitalization during the three months ended March 31, 2024. As a result of the goodwill impairment charge, GAAP operating margin was (247%) compared to 12% in the prior year period. First quarter 2024 results included $23 million in integration-related charges.
Adjusted diluted EPS for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.44, compared to $1.80 in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $132 million, compared to $245 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19%, compared to 29% in the prior year period. The year-over-year change in adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower COVID-19 revenue.
Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Guidance
Following the appointment of Brian J. Blaser as President and Chief Executive Officer, QuidelOrtho is suspending its 2024 financial guidance while it assesses the business under its new President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company plans to provide an update in today’s earnings conference call.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are any statement contained herein that is not strictly historical, including, but not limited to, QuidelOrtho’s commercial, integration, transformation and other strategic goals, future financial condition and operating results, including results of cost initiatives and operating flexibility achieved by the credit agreement amendment, and other future plans, objectives, strategies, expectations and intentions. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “might,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “intend,” “goal,” “project,” “strategy,” “future,” “continue” or similar words, expressions or the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs and expectations of QuidelOrtho’s management as of today and are subject to significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results or outcomes may differ significantly from those set forth or implied in the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth or implied in the forward-looking statements: supply chain, production, logistics, distribution and labor disruptions and challenges; the challenges and costs of integrating, restructuring and achieving anticipated synergies as a result of the business combination of Quidel Corporation and Ortho Clinical Diagnostics Holdings plc; and other macroeconomic, geopolitical, market, business, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting the business of QuidelOrtho generally, including those discussed in QuidelOrtho’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), including under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Form 10-K. You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events because these statements are based on assumptions that may not come true and are speculative by their nature. All forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to QuidelOrtho and speak only as of the date hereof. QuidelOrtho undertakes no obligation to update any of the forward-looking information or time-sensitive information included in this press release, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed expectations or otherwise, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial measures, including but not limited to “constant currency” revenue and revenue changes, “constant currency, ex-COVID-19” revenue and revenue changes, revenue ex-COVID-19, “adjusted net income,” “adjusted diluted EPS,” “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted EBITDA margin,” which are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). “Constant currency” revenue and revenue changes, “constant currency, ex-COVID-19” revenue and revenue changes, revenue ex-COVID-19, “adjusted net income,” “adjusted diluted EPS,” “adjusted EBITDA” and “adjusted EBITDA margin” eliminate impacts of certain non-cash, unusual or other items that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance, and the Company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company’s historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. The Company’s definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and reports filed with the Commission in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release.
