Second-quarter 2026 Cardiopulmonary revenue increased 11.2% on a reported basis and 9.9% on a constant-currency basis versus the second quarter of 2025 driven by growth in Europe, primarily reflecting Essenz™ Perfusion System sales, strong consumables demand, and favorable realized price.

Earnings Analysis

On a U.S. GAAP basis, second-quarter 2026 operating income was $49.5 million, as compared to operating income of $54.2 million for the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating income for the second quarter of 2026 was $90.8 million, as compared to adjusted operating income of $77.4 million for the second quarter of 2025.

On a U.S. GAAP basis, second-quarter 2026 diluted earnings per share was $1.93 as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.50 in the second quarter of 2025. Second-quarter 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share was $1.26, as compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.05 in the second quarter of 2025.

Full-Year 2026 Guidance

LivaNova now expects full-year 2026 revenue to grow between 8% and 9% (versus 7% and 8% prior) on a constant-currency basis. Foreign currency is expected to be a tailwind of approximately 1% 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 $4.30 to $4.40 (versus $4.20 to $4.30 prior), assuming a share count of approximately 56 million for full-year 2026. In 2026, the Company now estimates adjusted free cash flow in the range of $140 million to $160 million (versus $160 million to $180 million prior) to reflect incremental strategic investments in Cardiopulmonary capacity expansion, innovation, and IT infrastructure to support the Company’s growth strategy.

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.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

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, contingent consideration payments classified within operating cash flows, 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.
