Management Comments
"Despite an uneven and challenging market backdrop, our third quarter results exceeded our expectations, with continued strength in our recurring revenue businesses, and a modest improvement in Multiomics in North America," said John Marotta, President and Chief Executive Officer. "While these results represent an encouraging step forward, our turnaround continues, and we remain focused on executing against our strategic priorities."
Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results - Continuing Operations
- Revenue was $161?million, up 12% year over year. Organic revenue, which excludes a 1-percentage point impact from foreign exchange and a 3-percentage point impact from the acquisition of UK Biocentre Limited, was up 9% year over year, reflecting higher revenue in Sample Management Solutions and Multiomics.
- Sample Management Solutions revenue was $88 million, up 14% year over year.
- Organic revenue, which excludes the impact from foreign exchange and the contribution from the acquisition of UK Biocentre Limited, was up 9%, mainly driven by higher revenue in Sample Repository Solutions and Consumables and Instruments, partially offset by lower revenue in Automated Stores.
- Multiomics revenue was $73 million, up 10% year over year.
- Organic revenue, which excludes the impact?from foreign exchange, was up 8% year over year, primarily driven by higher revenue in Next Generation Sequencing and Gene Synthesis, partially offset by lower Sanger Sequencing revenue.

- Operating loss was $4.2 million. Operating margin was (2.6%), down 131 basis points year over year.
- Gross margin was 44.9%, a decrease of 130 basis points year over year, primarily driven by unfavorable fixed-cost absorption associated with lower sales volumes in certain areas of the portfolio as well as costs related to quality remediation and rework activities in Automated Stores. These impacts were partially offset by improved operating leverage and the benefits of ongoing cost initiatives.
- Operating expenses in the quarter were $77 million, up 12% year-over-year, driven by higher research and development expenses and higher selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower restructuring and transformation charges.

These impacts were partially offset by improved operating leverage and the benefits of ongoing cost initiatives.
- Adjusted operating expenses in the quarter were $70?million, up 13% year over year, driven by higher selling, general and administrative expenses and higher research and development expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA was $18.5 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.4%, a decrease of 60 basis points year over year.

Azenta does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis for the measures on which it provides forward-looking non-GAAP guidance as the Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure, without unreasonable effort, because of the inherent difficulty in accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations that have not yet occurred, are dependent on various factors, are out of the Company's control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. Such adjustments include, but are not limited to, transformation costs, restructuring charges, costs related to acquisitions and divestitures, governance-related matters, goodwill and intangible impairments, stock-based compensation, and other gains and charges that are not representative of the normal operations of the business.
Conference Call and Webcast
Azenta management will webcast its third quarter fiscal 2026 earnings conference call on August 5, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. During the call, Company management will respond to questions concerning, but not limited to, the Company's financial performance, business conditions and industry outlook. Management's responses could contain information that has not been previously disclosed.
The call will be broadcast live over the Internet and, together with presentation materials and supplemental information referenced on the call, will be hosted at the Investor Relations section of Azenta's website at https://investors.azenta.com/events. The supplemental information is being posted at the time of this earnings release, and the presentation materials will be posted ahead of the earnings call. A replay of the webcast will be archived on the website for convenient on-demand access.
Regulation G - Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including organic revenue, adjusted gross profit and margin, adjusted operating income, expenses and margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted EPS and free cash flow. Management believes these measures give investors additional insight into the results of business operations, improve period-to-period comparability and facilitate comparison with peers. Management uses these measures to evaluate business performance and uses organic revenue (referred to as Core Revenue in the Company's proxy statement), Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow in determining compensation under the Company's annual incentive plan. They are not presented in accordance with, and are not a substitute for, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, should always be considered together with the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. These measures are presented on a continuing operations basis, except free cash flow, which is presented on a total company basis inclusive of B Medical Systems. Non-GAAP diluted EPS does not exclude stock-based compensation; the Company separately presents non-GAAP adjusted net income excluding stock-based compensation. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and descriptions of the adjustments, are included at the end of this release under "Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures." Certain amounts may not sum due to rounding, and all percentages are calculated using unrounded amounts.
"Safe Harbor Statement" under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
Some statements in this release are forward-looking statements made under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees but involve risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown, that could cause Azenta's actual financial and business results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. They are based on the facts and assumptions known to management at the time they are made. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company's guidance and outlook for fiscal year 2026, including revenue, organic revenue growth, earnings, Adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow expectations; expectations regarding the timing, execution and benefits of operational, commercial and organizational transformation initiatives; anticipated productivity improvements and cost actions; expectations regarding demand trends and end market conditions; statements regarding the Company's long range plan and multi-year financial targets, including the extension of the long range plan timeline to 2029.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward looking statements include, but are not limited to: the Company's ability to execute on and realize the expected benefits from its transformation and operational improvement initiatives; changes in customer demand, purchasing behavior or funding conditions in the markets the Company serves; macroeconomic, geopolitical or regulatory developments; the impact of foreign currency fluctuations; the Company's ability to effectively manage costs, improve productivity and achieve anticipated margin improvements; supply chain disruptions; competitive dynamics; the ability of customers to meet payment obligations; risks relating to the collectability and timely repayment of the $35 million secured vendor loan extended to the buyer in connection with the B Medical Systems divestiture, including the buyer's ability to obtain permanent financing, the sufficiency of the collateral securing the loan, and the potential for an associated charge or impairment; and other risks and uncertainties described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to its Annual Report on Form 10 K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10 Q and Current Reports on Form 8 K. Because forward looking statements relate to future events and are based on current expectations, they are inherently subject to significant uncertainties, particularly with respect to projections and assumptions extending over multiple years. As a result, actual outcomes may differ materially from those projected.
Azenta expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Continuing Operations
Non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Management adjusts the GAAP results for the impact of amortization of intangible assets, restructuring charges, purchase price accounting adjustments and charges related to M&A, costs related to the Company's business transformation initiatives and share repurchases to provide investors better perspective on the results of operations which the Company believes is more comparable to the similar analysis provided by its peers. Management also excludes special charges and gains, such as impairment losses, gains and losses from the sale of assets, certain tax benefits and charges, as well as other gains and charges that are not representative of the normal operations of the business. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single measure.

(1) Transformation costs represent expenses associated with discrete strategic initiatives undertaken to simplify, standardize, streamline, and optimize the
Company's operations, processes, and systems. These initiatives are intended to generate long-term operational efficiencies and productivity improvements
and do not meet the definition of restructuring charges. Transformation costs primarily include asset write-downs associated with technology changes,
inventory write-downs related to restructuring activities, and third-party consulting costs incurred to support process and systems redesign efforts.
(2) Represents a non-cash goodwill impairment charge recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 as a result of the Company's quantitative goodwill
impairment analysis as of March 31, 2026, including $112.4 million for the Multiomics reporting unit and $36.6 million for the Sample Management Solutions
reporting unit.
(3) Merger and acquisition costs consist primarily of legal, accounting, valuation, and strategic advisory fees incurred in connection with acquisition and
integration activities.
(4) The Company recognized $3.9 million non-cash gain from the settlement of the pre-existing contractual relationship with UK Biocentre Limited in the
second quarter of fiscal 2026. The Company received $2.1 million of cash proceeds from a cost method investment which had no cost basis in the second
quarter of fiscal 2025. These are non-recurring and non-operational adjustments.
(5) Tax adjustments for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 are primarily driven by tax expenses related to a one-time repatriation of historical earnings
from China.
