~ First quarter results in line with February outlook ~

~ Updates 2026 outlook ranges; continues to expect 200bps above-market organic sales growth in 2027 ~

PLANO, Texas, April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Integer Holdings Corporation (NYSE:ITGR) today announced results for the three months ended April 3, 2026.

First Quarter 2026 Highlights (compared to First Quarter 2025, except as noted)

• Sales increased 0.5% to $440 million, with organic growth of 1.3%.
• GAAP operating income from continuing operations decreased $18 million to $32 million, a decrease of 36%. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income decreased $10 million to $61 million, a decrease of 14%.
• GAAP income from continuing operations increased $39 million to $17 million, an increase of 173%. Non-GAAP adjusted net income decreased $5 million to $41 million, a decrease of 10%.
• GAAP diluted EPS income from continuing operations increased $1.14 to $0.48, an increase of 173%. Non-GAAP adjusted EPS decreased $0.11 to $1.20, a decrease of 8%.
• Adjusted EBITDA decreased $6 million to $85 million, a decrease of 7%.
• From the end of 2025, total debt increased $66 million to $1.252 billion and Non-GAAP net total debt increased $74 million to $1.264 billion, resulting in a leverage ratio of 3.2 times adjusted EBITDA as of April 3, 2026.

“First quarter financial performance was in line with our outlook and primarily reflected the previously communicated headwinds associated with the three new products,” said Payman Khales, Integer’s President and CEO. “Given recent customer forecast updates and market dynamics, we believe it was prudent to further risk adjust our outlook. We remain focused on executing our strategy, navigating the temporary headwinds, and building momentum during the second half of 2026. We expect to return to 200 basis points above-market organic sales growth in 2027.”

Discussion of Product Line First Quarter 2026 Sales

• Cardio & Vascular sales increased 1% to $262 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to the first quarter 2025, reflecting the previously communicated headwinds associated with the two new products in Electrophysiology.
• Cardiac Rhythm Management & Neuromodulation sales increased 5% to $168 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to the first quarter 2025. Cardiac Rhythm Management growth was partially offset by the previously communicated headwind in Neuromodulation.
• Other Markets sales decreased $9 million to $10 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to the first quarter 2025, primarily driven by a decline in Portable Medical from the multi-year exit announced in 2022.

2026 Outlook^(a)

^(a)   Except as described below, further reconciliations by line item to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measure for adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”), included in our “2026 Outlook” above, and adjusted total interest expense, adjusted effective tax rate and leverage ratio in “Supplemental Financial Information” below, are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and visibility of the charges excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures.
^(b)   Adjusted operating income for 2026 consists of GAAP operating income, excluding items such as amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and restructuring-related charges, and acquisition and integration costs, totaling approximately $120 million, pre-tax.

Adjusted net income for 2026 consists of GAAP income from continuing operations, excluding items such as amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and restructuring-related charges, acquisition and integration costs, other general expenses, and ERP implementation expenses, estimated to approximate $120 million, pre-tax. The after-tax impact of these items is estimated to be approximately $95 million, or approximately $2.76 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA is expected to consist of adjusted net income, excluding items such as depreciation, interest, stock-based compensation and taxes totaling approximately $175 million to $182 million.

Supplemental Financial Information

^(a)   Excludes amounts included in Restructuring, acquisition and other charges.
^(b)   Adjusted total interest expense refers to our expected full-year GAAP interest expense, expected to range from $38 million to $40 million for 2026, adjusted to remove the full-year impact of charges associated with the accelerated write-off of debt discounts and deferred issuance costs (loss on extinguishment of debt) included in GAAP interest expense, if any. Adjusted total interest expense for 2025 included GAAP interest expense of $43 million.
^(c)   Restructuring, acquisition and other charges consists of restructuring and restructuring-related charges, acquisition and integration costs, ERP implementation costs, other general expenses and incremental costs of complying with the new European Union medical device regulations.
^(d)   Adjusted effective tax rate refers to our full-year GAAP effective tax rate, expected to range from 17.0% to 19.0% for 2026, adjusted to reflect the full-year impact of the items that are excluded in providing adjusted net income and certain other identified items. Adjusted effective tax rate of 17.2% for 2025 consists of GAAP effective tax rate of 18.0% adjusted to reflect the impact on the income tax provision related to Non-GAAP adjustments.
^(e)   Please see “Notes Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information” for additional information regarding leverage ratio.
^(f)   Capital expenditures is calculated as cash used to acquire property, plant, and equipment (PP&E) less cash proceeds from the sale of PP&E.

Notes Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to our results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we provide adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and organic sales change. Unless otherwise indicated, all financial metrics presented reflect continuing operations only.

Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS consist of GAAP income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted EPS from continuing operations, respectively, adjusted for the following to the extent occurring during the period: (i) amortization of intangible assets, (ii) certain legal expenses; (iii) restructuring and restructuring-related charges; (iv) acquisition and integration costs; (v) other general expenses; (vi) ERP implementation, (vii) (gain) loss on equity investments; (viii) extinguishment of debt charges, (ix) debt conversion inducement expense; (x) European Union medical device regulation incremental charges; (xi) inventory step-up amortization; (xii) unusual, or infrequently occurring items; (xiii) the income tax provision (benefit) related to these adjustments and (xiv) certain tax items that are outside the normal tax provision for the period. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by adjusted weighted average shares.

The weighted average shares used to calculate diluted EPS in accordance with GAAP includes dilution, when applicable, resulting from the potential conversion of our 2028 Convertible Notes and 2030 Convertible Notes (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”). In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, we entered into capped call contracts which are expected to reduce the potential dilution on our common stock in connection with any conversion of the Convertible Notes, subject to a cap. Adjusted weighted average shares consists of GAAP weighted average shares used to calculate diluted EPS, including, when applicable, dilutive common stock equivalents that were excluded from weighted average shares used to calculate diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive and excluding, when applicable, dilution resulting from the potential conversion of our Convertible Notes expected to be offset by the capped call contracts.

EBITDA is calculated by adding back interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation expense, and amortization expense from intangible assets and financing leases, to income (loss) from continuing operations, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus adding back stock-based compensation and the same adjustments as listed above except for items (i), (viii), (xiii) and (xiv). Adjusted operating income consists of operating income adjusted for the same items listed above except for items (vii), (viii), (ix), (xiii) and (xiv).

Organic sales change is reported sales growth adjusted to remove the impact of foreign currency, the contribution of acquisitions and the strategic exit of the Portable Medical market. To calculate the impact of foreign currency on sales growth rates, we convert any sale made in a foreign currency by converting current period sales into prior period sales using the exchange rate in effect at that time and then compare the two, negating any effect foreign currency had on our transactional revenue. For contribution of acquisitions, we exclude the impact on the growth rate attributable to the contribution of acquisitions in all periods where there were no comparable sales. For the strategic exit of the Portable Medical market, we exclude the impact on the growth rate attributable to Portable Medical sales for all periods presented.

We believe that the presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and organic sales change, provides important supplemental information to management and investors seeking to understand the financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the performance measures identified above, we believe that net total debt and leverage ratio provide meaningful measures of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing our ability to fund our activities, including the financing of acquisitions and debt repayments. Net total debt is calculated as total principal amount of debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents. We calculate leverage ratio as net total debt divided by adjusted EBITDA for the trailing 4 quarters.

Table A: Adjusted Net Income and Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations Reconciliations
(in thousands, except per share amounts)

^(a)   Income from continuing operations (GAAP) per diluted share amounts are calculated in accordance with GAAP using weighted average shares for diluted EPS. The per share amounts for the adjustments in the table above and adjusted net income are calculated using adjusted weighted average shares. For purposes of measuring diluted loss per share under GAAP, common stock equivalents were excluded from weighted average shares for the first quarter of 2025 as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. However, for purposes of computing Adjusted EPS, the Company has included the impact of dilutive common stock equivalents for the first quarter of 2025. The following table provides a reconciliation from GAAP weighted average shares for diluted EPS to non-GAAP adjusted weighted average shares.

^(b)   The difference between pre-tax and net of tax amounts is the estimated tax impact related to the respective adjustment. Net of tax amounts are computed using a 21% U.S. tax rate, and the statutory tax rates applicable in foreign tax jurisdictions, as adjusted for the existence of net operating losses (“NOLs”). Expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes (i.e. permanent tax differences) are added back at 100%.
^(c)   Certain legal expenses associated with non-ordinary course legal matters.
^(d)   We initiate discrete restructuring programs primarily to realign resources to better serve our customers and markets, improve operational efficiency and capabilities, and lower operating costs or improve profitability. Depending on the program, restructuring charges may include termination benefits, contract termination, facility closure and other exit and disposal costs. Restructuring-related expenses are directly related to the program and may include retention bonuses, accelerated depreciation, consulting expense and costs to transfer manufacturing operations among our facilities.
^(e)   Acquisition and integration costs are incremental costs that are directly related to a business or asset acquisition. These costs may include, among other things, professional, consulting and other fees, system integration costs, and fair value adjustments relating to contingent consideration.
^(f)   Other general expenses are discrete transactions occurring sporadically and affect period-over-period comparisons.
^(g)   These adjustments represent direct and incremental costs incurred in connection with our implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") solution and related IT transition costs. An implementation of this scale is a significant undertaking and will require substantial time and attention of management and key employees. The associated costs do not represent normal and recurring operating expenses and will be inconsistent in amounts and frequency making it difficult to contribute to a meaningful evaluation of our operating performance. Expenses for 2026 were primarily included in SG&A.
^(h)   Amounts reflect our share of equity method investee (gains) losses including unrealized appreciation/depreciation of the underlying interests of the investee.
⁽ⁱ⁾   Loss on extinguishment of debt consists of accelerated write-offs of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs and discounts, which are included in interest expense.
^(j)   Debt conversion inducement expense relates to the partial exchange of the 2028 Convertible Notes and is recorded within Other loss, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
^(k)   The charges represent incremental costs of complying with European Union medical device regulations for previously registered products and primarily include charges for contractors supporting the project and other direct third-party expenses.
^(l)   Other adjustments include costs which impact period-to-period comparability and do not represent the underlying ongoing results of our business. Amounts in 2026 primarily relate to costs associated with leadership transitions and a stockholder activist matter. Leadership transition costs primarily include severance costs associated with the departure of executives and incremental costs associated with the related leadership transitions. For the first quarter of 2026, leadership transition costs and stockholder activist related costs amounted to $1.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively.
^(m)   Tax adjustments predominately relate to changes to uncertain tax benefits and associated interest. During the first quarter of 2025 we wrote off a deferred tax asset of $4.1 million related to a portion of the unamortized original issue discount due to the partial exchange of the 2028 Convertible Notes.
⁽ⁿ⁾   Represents the per share amount attributable to the reduction in dilution upon assumed exercise of the capped call option contracts.
