Interpace Biosciences, Inc.: Interpace Biosciences Announces First Quarter 2026 Financial and Business Results

• Q1 Revenue of $9.0 million
• Q1 Income from Continuing Operations of $0.8 million
• Q1 Thyroid volume year-over-year increase of 10%
• Q1 Thyroid revenue year-over-year increase of 12%

PARSIPPANY, NJ, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Interpace Biosciences, Inc. ("Interpace" or the "Company") (OTCQX: IDXG) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026 and provided a business and financial update.

Interpace generated Q1 2026 revenue of $9.0 million on 12% year-over-year thyroid revenue growth, delivered $0.8 million of income from continuing operations, and produced Adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million, or 17% of revenue.

"Our first quarter results demonstrate continued momentum in our thyroid franchise and the operational efficiency that has come with our transition to a thyroid-only diagnostics testing company," said Chris McCarthy, Chief Financial Officer. "Q1 2026 thyroid revenue increased 12% year-over-year and gross margin expanded to 65% from 59% on a Pro Forma basis. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $1.6 million from $0.8 million in the prior year quarter on a Pro Forma basis. Operating income margin improved to 12% from 6% in the prior year quarter on a Pro Forma basis and adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 17% from 10% in the prior year quarter on a Pro Forma basis. These results reflect the strength of our ThyGeNEXT and ThyraMIRv2 platform and the consistent execution of our commercial team."

McCarthy added, "Our debt-free balance sheet continues to support meaningful investment in laboratory automation and AI-enabled productivity initiatives across our workflow. We are scaling operating leverage in line with volume growth without a corresponding increase in headcount, which we expect will support continued margin expansion as the year progresses."

"The first quarter demonstrates the durability of the business we built through last year's transition and positions Interpace to build on this momentum through the remainder of 2026." said Tom Burnell, President and CEO. "We see the same characteristics in Q1 2026 that defined our 2025 performance - disciplined execution, expanding clinical adoption, and a steady cadence of operational improvement. We continue to believe our combination approach - ThyGeNEXT for mutation detection and ThyraMIRv2 for microRNA pathway insights - gives physicians the confidence and clarity they need to make informed patient-management decisions."

Outlook

With a streamlined, thyroid-only operating model and continued commercial momentum, Interpace is positioned to build on its first-quarter performance through the remainder of 2026. The Company is reaffirming its previously provided 2026 guidance of approximately 16% year-over-year thyroid revenue growth, and remains focused on scaling thyroid test volume through deeper adoption within existing accounts, expanding the active account base, and driving productivity gains through laboratory automation and operational discipline.

Business Highlights

• Average thyroid revenue per test increased 3% year-over-year.
• Days sales outstanding (DSO) improved 6% year-over-year.
• Turnaround time improved 21% year-over-year.
• Average volume per account increased 9% year-over-year.
• Number of accounts increased 5% year-over-year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, results provided throughout this document, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate the results of our performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures, are useful to both management and investors in analyzing our ongoing business and operating performance. We believe that providing the non-GAAP information to investors, in addition to the GAAP presentation, allows investors to view our financial results in the way that management views financial results.

In this document, we discuss Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to measure cash flow of the ongoing business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income or loss from continuing operations, plus depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, severance expense, non-recurring legal expenses, interest and taxes, and other non-cash expenses including change in fair values of notes payable. The table above includes a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
