What Happened

• On April 15, 2026, QuidelOrtho Corporation (QDEL) issued a press release announcing its preliminary unaudited revenue for the first quarter of 2026, which ended March 29, 2026. The release was furnished with the company’s Form 8-K (Item 2.02) as Exhibit 99.1. The company notes these figures are preliminary and subject to change during its quarter‑end close and audit processes.

Key Details

• Press release date: April 15, 2026.
• Quarter reported: Q1 2026 (period ended March 29, 2026).

Why It Matters

• Preliminary revenue gives investors an early view of quarterly performance, but QuidelOrtho cautions these estimates may change materially.
