Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this quarterly report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs, which are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in both our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and in this quarterly report. Columns and rows within tables may not add due to rounding. Amounts have been calculated using actual, non-rounded figures; accordingly, amounts and percentages may not recalculate, and columns and rows within tables may not add due to rounding.
Overview
Our mission is to transform the lives of people with diabetes. We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture, and sale of our proprietary Omnipod product platform, a continuous insulin delivery system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. The Omnipod platform primarily includes our most recent generation Omnipod 5 and its predecessor Omnipod DASH, which eliminate the need for multiple daily injections using syringes or insulin pens or the use of pump and tubing. Omnipod 5, which builds on our Omnipod DASH mobile platform, is a tubeless automated insulin delivery system that integrates with a continuous glucose monitors (“CGM”) to manage blood sugar and is fully controlled by a compatible personal smartphone or Omnipod 5 Controller. It is indicated for type 1 diabetes and, in the United States, for type 2 diabetes for ages 18 and up. The CGM is sold separately by third parties. The Pod currently integrates with Dexcom, Inc.’s G6 and G7 CGMs and with Abbott Diabetes Care, Inc.’s (“Abbott”) FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor (“Libre 2 Plus”) in various markets. Omnipod DASH features a secure Bluetooth enabled Pod that is controlled by a smartphone-like Personal Diabetes Manager (“PDM”) with a color touch screen user interface.
Our financial objective is to sustain profitable growth. To achieve this, we continue to roll out Omnipod 5 in additional countries. In February 2026, we launched Omnipod 5 in five counties in the Middle East. Additionally, we are working on further building our international teams and advancing our regulatory, reimbursement, and market development efforts so we can bring Omnipod 5 to additional international markets.
In the U.S., we sell our products through the pharmacy channel, which expands access by improving affordability, as no upfront investment is required. We also continue to increase awareness of Omnipod products through our direct-to-consumer advertising programs.
We continue to focus on our product development efforts, including choice of smartphone integration and CGM with Omnipod 5 and enhancing the customer experience through digital product and data capabilities. We are currently working to integrate Omnipod 5 with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus (“Libre 3 Plus”) and developing Omnipod 6, our next generation AID product. During the first quarter of 2026, we completed a limited market release in the U.S. of Omnipod 5 algorithm enhancements, including a lower 100mg/dL target glucose set point. In addition, we completed a limited market release of the Omnipod 5 algorithm with Libre 3 Plus in the U.S. We also advanced development of our fully closed-loop AID system for people with type 2 diabetes, including recently enrolling the first participant in our EVOLVE pivotal study to support a planned 510(k) submission in 2027.
Finally, we continue to take steps to strengthen our global manufacturing capabilities, which includes investing in a new manufacturing plant in Costa Rica to support our continued growth.
Results of Operations
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pod is intended to be used continuously for up to three days, after which it may be replaced with a new disposable Pod. The unique patented design of the Omnipod allows us to provide Pod therapy at a relatively low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows for it and our pay-as-you-go pricing model reduces the risk to third-party payors. As we grow our customer base, we expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenues through recurring sales of our disposable Pods, which provide recurring revenue.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure, which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $192.8 million, or 33.9%, to $761.7 million, compared with $569.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Constant currency revenue growth of 30.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by higher sales volume largely attributable to our growing customer base and, to a lesser extent, higher price.
U.S.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. increased $113.9 million, or 28.3%, to $515.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $401.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase primarily resulted from higher sales volume driven by growing our customer base.
As discussed in note 1 to our consolidated financial statements, revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included $148.5 million of sales to a related party.
For full year 2026, we expect strong U.S. revenue growth primarily driven by the benefits of our recurring revenue model and continued volume growth of Omnipod 5.
International
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in our international markets increased $90.5 million, or 59.4%, to $242.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $152.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Excluding the 14.2% favorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 45.2% increase in revenue was primarily due to higher volumes from our growing customer base, and to a lesser extent, a higher average selling price for Omnipod 5, compared with Omnipod DASH.
For full year 2026, we expect higher International Omnipod revenue due to continued volume growth driven by new customers and higher price resulting from conversions to Omnipod 5.
Drug Delivery
Substantially all of our Drug Delivery revenue consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy. Drug Delivery revenue was $3.3 million and $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $72.7 million, or 45.5%, to $232.7 million, compared with $159.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Gross margin was 69.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with 71.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The 240 basis point decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by an increase in inventory excess and obsolescence reserve as we transition to our new Pod configurations and, to a lesser extent, higher warranty costs resulting from the voluntary medical device correction we issued in March 2026 related to specific lots of

Table of Contents
Omnipod 5 Pods. These decreases in gross margin were partially offset by improved manufacturing efficiencies and a higher average selling price.
We estimate the voluntary medical device correction and related costs will be approximately $30 million, more than half of which we expect to incur in 2026, with the remainder expected to be incurred in 2027. The latter relates to incremental manual quality inspections expected to be performed until automated inspection systems are implemented. We do not expect tariffs to have a significant impact on our gross margin in 2026; however, the elimination of the current exemption for certain medical devices would have a material impact on our results of operations in future years.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $30.1 million, or 50.6%, to $89.7 million, compared with $59.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Research and development expenses as a percent of revenue was 11.8% and 10.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses were primarily due to continued investment in our Omnipod and pipeline products, including a fully closed-loop AID system for type 2 diabetes and Omnipod 6, our next generation AID system.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $56.6 million, or 21.7%, to $317.2 million, compared with $260.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions, mainly in our commercial and customer experience teams, to support our market share gains and customer retention. Commercial investments, including international market development and demand generation also contributed to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, although to a lesser extent. We expect to continue investing in sales and marketing to expand our sales force and prepare for upcoming product launches, including the full market release with Omnipod 5 algorithm integrated with Libre 3 Plus and our latest algorithm enhancements.
Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense and Income
Interest expense increased $5.5 million to $14.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily due to the issuance of 6.5% senior unsecured notes in March 2025 and the renewal of interest rate swaps at higher rates in April 2025.
Interest income decreased $5.3 million to $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in interest income was driven by lower average cash balances and, to a lesser extent, lower average interest rates.

We are also working on further building our international teams and advancing our regulatory, reimbursement, and market development efforts so we can bring Omnipod 5 to new international markets.
During 2025, we completed the randomized portion of our RADIANT study in France, the United Kingdom, and Belgium. The RADIANT study is a randomized controlled trial of Omnipod 5 with Libre 2, designed to provide clinical data to support our pricing and market access initiatives as we roll out Omnipod 5 with multiple sensors across our international markets. In the U.S., we sell our products through the pharmacy channel, which expands access by improving affordable, as no upfront investment is required. We also continue to increase awareness of Omnipod products through our direct-to-consumer advertising programs.
In 2025, we also completed STRIVE, our pivotal study for the next generation hybrid closed loop system, and we finished enrollment for EVOLUTION 2, our safety and feasibility study for a fully closed loop AID system for type 2 diabetes. Additionally, we received 510(k) clearance for enhancements to the Omnipod 5 algorithm to include a lower target glucose set point. We also launched our Omnipod 5 app for iPhone compatible with Dexcom’s G7 CGM sensor in the United States and integrated Omnipod 5 with Dexcom’s G7 CGM sensor in five additional countries and with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor in Australia. Following the launch of Omnipod 5 in several countries in the Middle East in early 2026, Omnipod 5 is now available in 19 countries. We continue to focus on our product development efforts, including choice of smartphone integration and CGM with Omnipod 5 and enhancing the customer experience through digital product and data capabilities. We are currently working to integrate Omnipod 5 with Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus and developing Omnipod 6, our next generation AID product.
Finally, we continue to take steps to strengthen our global manufacturing capabilities. We began producing product at our new manufacturing plant in Malaysia in 2024 and are already investing in another manufacturing plant in Costa Rica to support our continued growth.
Results of Operations
The discussion of our results of operations for 2023 has been omitted from this Form 10-K but can be found in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2025.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pod is intended to be used continuously for up to three days, after which it may be replaced with a new disposable Pod. As of December 31, 2025, we had more than 600,000 estimated active Omnipod users globally. The unique patented design of the Omnipod allows us to provide Pod therapy at a relatively low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows

for it and our pay-as-you-go pricing model reduces the risk to third-party payors. As we grow our customer base, we expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenues through recurring sales of our disposable Pods, which provide recurring revenue.
In August 2024, we received FDA clearance for an expanded indication of Omnipod 5 for people with type 2 diabetes. Due to the positive results of our Omnipod 5 type 2 pivotal trial and the learnings from our commercial pilot of Omnipod GO, a basal-only Pod for certain individuals with type 2 diabetes, we made a strategic decision to drive growth in the type 2 diabetes market with Omnipod 5. Accordingly, we decided not to move forward with the commercialization of Omnipod GO. As a result, in 2024, we recorded a charge of $13.5 million related to certain inventory components that would not be utilized.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue increased $636.6 million, or 30.7%, to $2,708.1 million in 2025, compared with $2,071.6 million in 2024. Constant currency revenue growth of 29.5% was primarily driven by higher sales volume largely attributable to our growing customer base and, to a lesser extent, higher price.
U.S.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. increased $410.5 million, or 27.2%, in 2025 to $1,919.8 million, compared with $1,509.3 million in 2024. This increase primarily resulted from higher sales volume driven by growing our customer base. Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. includes $511.6 million of related party revenue in 2025, compared with $587.8 million in 2024. The $76.2 million decrease primarily resulted from one quarter less of related party sales in the current year, partially offset by growth through the pharmacy channel. Additional information regarding our related party transactions is provided in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.
In 2026, we expect strong U.S. revenue growth primarily driven by the benefits of our recurring revenue model and continued volume growth of Omnipod 5.
International
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in our international markets increased $230.9 million, or 44.1%, in 2025 to $754.3 million, compared with $523.4 million in 2024. Excluding the 4.8% favorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 39.3% increase in revenue was primarily due to higher volumes from our growing customer base, largely resulting from the prior year launches of Omnipod 5. A higher average selling price for Omnipod 5, compared with Omnipod DASH, also contributed to the revenue increase.
In 2026, we expect higher International revenue due to continued volume growth driven by new customers and higher price resulting from conversions to Omnipod 5.
Drug Delivery
Substantially all of our Drug Delivery revenue consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy. Drug Delivery revenue was $34.1 million and $38.9 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for 2025 increased $142.3 million, or 22.7%, to $768.2 million, compared with $625.9 million in 2024. Gross margin was 71.6% in 2025, compared with 69.8% in 2024. The 180 basis points increase in gross margin was primarily driven by improved manufacturing and supply chain efficiencies, a higher average selling price, increased volume and a $13.5 million charge in the prior year related to certain components utilized in OmnipodGO, which we decided not to commercialize.
While we do not expect tariffs to have a significant impact on our gross margin in 2026, should the exemption that is currently in place for certain medical devices be eliminated, tariffs would have a material impact on our results of operations in future years.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses increased $81.5 million, or 37.1%, to $301.1 million for 2025, compared with $219.6 million for 2024. Research and development expenses as a percent of revenue increased to 11.1% in 2025 from 10.6% in 2024. The increase in research and development expense was primarily due to year-over-year headcount additions to support continued investment in our Omnipod and pipeline products, including a fully closed loop AID system for type 2 diabetes, the integration of Libre 3 with Omnipod 5, and Omnipod 6, our next generation AID system. To a lesser extent, the increase was driven by higher consulting costs to support our clinical trials and Omnipod and next generation products.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $247.8 million, or 27.0%, to $1,165.0 million in 2025, compared with $917.2 million in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions to support our business growth, mainly in our commercial and customer experience teams, and incremental advertising expense of $37.1 million. Increased investments in global marketing and training for the sales team to support demand generation also contributed to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, although to a lesser extent.
Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense and Income
Interest expense increased $16.7 million to $59.4 million in 2025, compared with $42.7 million in 2024 primarily due to the issuance of 6.5% senior unsecured notes in March 2025 and the renewal of interest rate swaps at higher rates in April 2025. The increase was partially offset by lower interest on our Term Loan B resulting from the refinancing in August 2024 and fees paid to amend our Term Loan B in the prior year, which did not repeat in the current year. Interest income decreased $4.9 million to $34.7 million in 2025, compared with $39.5 million in 2024 primarily driven by lower interest rates.
In 2026, we expect net interest expense to increase to $40 million or more, primarily due to lower interest income.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
During 2025, we repurchased $419.9 million million in principal ($417.6 million net of issuance costs) of our Convertible Senior Notes for $541.5 million in cash, which resulted in a $123.9 million loss on extinguishment. Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income, net of $14.3 million for 2025 primarily consists of a $12.5 million gain resulting from the change in fair value of the derivative asset associated with the redemption of our convertible debt discussed in Note 15. Other expense, net of $5.5 million for 2024 consists primarily of a $3.8 million loss related to fair value adjustments associated with a strategic debt investment.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 27.2% for 2025, compared with a tax benefit of 39.3% for 2024. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the absence of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets that existed in the prior year and the loss

Table of Contents
on extinguishment of our Convertible Senior Notes during 2025, the settlement of which resulted in non-deductible premiums, These impacts were partially offset by a nontaxable gain on the related derivative asset.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) and participating countries continue to advance the implementation of a 15% global minimum corporate tax (“Pillar Two”). More than 50 countries, including the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, in which we operate, have enacted elements of the global minimum tax legislation with certain provisions effective in 2025. In January 2026, the OECD issued additional administrative guidance introducing a “side-by-side” framework applicable to U.S.-parented multinational groups. This framework provides an exemption from the application of certain Pillar Two charging provisions, including the Income Inclusion Rule and the Undertaxed Profits Rule, while such groups remain subject to Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-Up Taxes enacted by individual jurisdictions. We anticipate additional legislative activity and administrative guidance related to Pillar Two throughout 2026. Based on the legislation enacted as of December 31, 2025, the implementation of Pillar Two did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for 2025. We are continuing to evaluate the potential impact on future periods.
In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA permanently extends certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifies aspects of the international tax framework, and restores favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions, including the immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenditures. The OBBBA also provides accelerated tax deductions for certain qualified property. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others effective through 2027. In 2025, OBBBA resulted in a decrease in our deferred tax assets of approximately $70 million, primarily due to the immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenditures and a corresponding increase in both operating and free cash flow. The impact on our consolidated statement of income was insignificant. We continue to evaluate the optional tax elections available under OBBBA and their potential impact on our consolidated financial statements for 2026 and subsequent periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures described below.
Constant currency revenue growth represents the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. We present constant currency revenue growth because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results. It is also one of the performance metrics that determines management incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income plus net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other significant transactions or events, such as legal settlements, gains (losses) on

Table of Contents
investments, and loss on extinguishment of debt, which affect the period-to-period comparability of our performances, as applicable. We present Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it as a supplemental measure in assessing our performance, and we believe that it is helpful to investors and other interested parties as a measure of our comparative performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used measure in determining business value and we use it internally to report results.
Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management uses this non-GAAP measure, in addition to U.S. GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating results.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the above definitions may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations; accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our current liquidity as further described below will be sufficient to meet our projected operating, investing, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Capitalization
The following table contains several key measures to gauge our financial condition and liquidity at the end of each year:
| As of December 31, | ||||||

Credit Agreement
We have a $500 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which expires in 2030. At December 31, 2025, no amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to maintain a specified leverage ratio when there are amounts of at least 35% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Facility outstanding. It also contains other customary covenants, none of which we consider restrictive to our operations. Additionally, we have a Term Loan B, which matures in 2031, that contains covenants restricting or limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make asset dispositions, create or permit liens, sell, transfer or exchange assets, guarantee certain indebtedness, and make acquisitions and other investments.
Senior Unsecured Notes
Our $450 million aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior unsecured notes, due 2033, contain leverage and fixed charge coverage ratio covenants, both of which are measured upon the incurrence of future debt, as well as other customary covenants, none of which we consider restrictive to our operations.
Share Repurchase Program
In March 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $125.0 million of common stock through December 31, 2026 to offset dilution from stock-based compensation. During 2025, we repurchased approximately 184 thousand shares for $59.6 million under this program. In February 2026, the Board of Directors extended the authorization of this program through December 31, 2027 and approved an additional $350 million in repurchases of common stock. We plan to utilize $300 million of existing cash to repurchase shares in the first quarter of 2026.
Additional information regarding our debt and equity is provided in Notes 13 and 17 to the consolidated financial statements.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $569.3 million in 2025 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for loss on extinguishment of debt, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and deferred income taxes, partially offset by a $23.0 million working capital outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $140.2 million increase in accounts receivable and an $81.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $160.2 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities and a $49.2 million increase in accounts payable. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to higher sales driven by our growing customer base. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by prepaid payroll, cloud computing costs, prepaid income taxes, and prepaid raw materials. The increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by an increase in accrued compensation driven by higher incentive compensation achievement and headcount additions to support our growing business, and an increase in accrued rebates due to higher sales volume. Finally, the increase in accounts payable was driven by the timing of payments and continued growth of our business.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $222.7 million in 2025, compared with $146.2 million in 2024.
Capital Spending—Capital expenditures were $191.6 million and $124.9 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $66.7 million increase primarily related to the investment in our third manufacturing plant in Costa Rica and the purchase of additional machinery and equipment for our Malaysia manufacturing facility to support continued business growth. We expect capital expenditures for 2026 to increase compared with 2025 as we continue to expand globally and optimize our manufacturing and supply chain operations. We expect to fund our capital expenditures using a combination of existing cash and financing.
Investments in Developed Software—Investments in developed software were $19.2 million and $9.1 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, and primarily related to investments in projects to support our cloud-based capabilities.
Investments—In 2024, we made strategic investments in private companies in the amount of $12.2 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $595.3 million in 2025, compared with $28.0 million in 2024.
Debt Issuance and Repayments—In 2025, we received net proceeds of $440.7 million from the issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes and used the proceeds along with proceeds of $164.6 million from the unwinding the related capped call options to partially fund the $1,052.2 million repurchase and redemption of our Convertible Notes. In 2025, we also received proceeds of $15.5 million from the refinancing of our Term Loan B, and we repaid $99.6 million of our Term Loan B, equipment financings, and mortgage, compared with $26.3 million in 2024. In 2024, we refinanced our Term Loan B, which resulted in cash proceeds of $130.0 million, net of issuance costs, and the simultaneous repayment of $132.2 million of the Term Loan B.
Proceeds and Repayments from Secured Borrowing—During 2025, we repaid secured borrowing (net of cash advances) of $12.6 million to a third-party to whom we outsourced our insurance claim submissions process in a certain country. During 2024, we received cash advances (net of repayments) of $10.7 million from this third-party.
Finance Lease Repayments—During 2024, we made $22.7 million in finance lease repayments associated with our Malaysia manufacturing facility, including the amount associated with exercising our option to purchase the property.
Proceeds from Option Exercises—Proceeds from option exercises were $19.0 million and $8.2 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $10.8 million increase was primarily driven by more options exercised during the current period and a higher average option exercise price resulting from an increase in our stock price.

Table of Contents
Proceeds from Shares Issued Under Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)—Proceeds from the issuance of shares under the ESPP were $14.9 million and $11.9 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Payment of Taxes for Restricted Stock Net Settlements—Payments for taxes related to net restricted and performance stock unit settlements were $25.9 million and $7.6 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $18.3 million increase was primarily driven by more RSUs vesting during the current period due to headcount additions to support the growth of the business and a higher fair market value of the restricted stock units that vested during the period.
Repurchase of Common Stock—During 2025, we paid $59.6 million to repurchase common shares to offset dilution from stock-based compensation.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow was $377.7 million in 2025, compared with $305.3 million in 2024. The $72.4 million increase in free cash flow primarily resulted from an increase in operating income, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures and taxes paid.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, which should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for our reported financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
A reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure) and free cash flow is as follows:

(1)Interest on debt and lease obligations are projected for future periods using the interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2025. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in market interest rates. Additional information regarding our leases is provided in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements.
(2)Excludes the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements.
(3)Purchase obligations include commitments for the purchase of components for our products, commitments related to establishing additional manufacturing capabilities, and other commitments for purchases of goods or services in the normal course of business. These commitments are derived from purchase orders, supplier contracts, and open orders based on projected demand information.
Legal Proceedings—In December 2024, a jury found that EOFlow Co., Ltd. (“EOFlow”) and several other defendants misappropriated certain of our trade secrets and awarded us $452 million in damages. The Court subsequently upheld the jury verdict and further entered a permanent worldwide injunction. In view of the scope of the permanent injunction, the Court reduced our monetary award to $59.4 million to avoid a double recovery. We have not recorded the damages awarded in our consolidated statements of income as EOFlow has appealed and EOFlow’s ability to satisfy the damages award is uncertain. Refer to Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this matter.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The following accounting policies are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period.

Pharmacy Rebates
We generally recognize revenue when control of our products is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the net consideration we expect to receive. Our products are subject to pricing rebates under arrangements with managed care organizations, including pharmacy benefit managers, governmental payors, and third-party commercial payors, primarily in the United States. These rebates represent amounts owed pursuant to contractual agreements or legal requirements after the product is dispensed to a benefit plan participant. Provisions for these rebates, collectively referred to as pharmacy rebates, are treated as variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction to revenue using the expected value method. Although we record a rebate provision at the time of sale, the related rebate payments are generally made 30 to 90 days thereafter and, in certain cases, may extend up to one year. As a result of this timing difference, revenue recognized in a given period may include adjustments to rebate provisions recorded in prior periods. Estimates of pharmacy rebates are developed based on historical experience, sales trends, levels of inventory in the distribution channel, and contractual terms. A significant portion of our rebate provisions relate to sales of the Company’s products in the United States. United States pharmacy rebate provisions charged against gross sales amounted to $654.7 million, $452.7 million, and $367.3 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. To the extent that actual rebate payments differ from our estimates, we revise our assumptions and record the resulting adjustments to revenue in the period in which such differences become known.
Income Taxes
Significant judgment is required in determining whether it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which a deferred tax asset can be utilized. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including cumulative income in recent fiscal years, our forecast of future taxable income exclusive of certain reversing temporary differences and significant risks and uncertainties related to our business. In determining future taxable income, we are responsible for assumptions utilized including the amount of state, federal, and international pre-tax operating income, the reversal of certain temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions, which are based on our commercial experience to date and are consistent with the plans and estimates that we are using to manage our underlying business.
During 2024, we determined that it is more likely than not that we will realize substantially all of our net deferred tax assets after weighing positive and negative evidence to assess recoverability, including cumulative income (loss) position, revenue growth, current profitability, and expectations regarding future forecasted income. Accordingly, in 2024, we recorded a tax benefit of $182.5 million from the release of our valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2025, we have a valuation allowance of $30.6 million on certain U.S. state tax credits and state net operating loss carryforwards because it is more likely than not that those deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Accounting Standards Issued and Not Yet Adopted as of December 31, 2025
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expenses Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The new guidance requires disaggregated disclosure of expenses included in certain expense captions presented in the statements of incomes as well as additional disclosures about selling expenses. We intend to adopt these new disclosure requirements beginning with our annual filing for 2027, as required. The guidance may be applied prospectively or retrospectively.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The new guidance provides a practical expedient to simplify the measurement of credit losses for certain receivables and contract assets. We intend to adopt the practical expedient prospectively beginning with our first quarterly filing for 2026, when required. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the internal-use software guidance by eliminating references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2028, but early adoption is permitted. The guidance may be applied prospectively, modified prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements. The new guidance simplifies certain aspects of hedge documentation, assessment of hedge effectiveness, and ongoing application requirements. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2027, but early adoption is permitted. Once adopted, the guidance is applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

Overview
Our mission is to improve the lives of people with diabetes. We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture, and sale of our proprietary Omnipod product platform, a continuous insulin delivery system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. The Omnipod platform includes: the most recent generation Omnipod 5, and its predecessors Omnipod DASH and Classic Omnipod, all of which eliminate the need for multiple daily injections using syringes or insulin pens or the use of pump and tubing. Omnipod 5, which builds on our Omnipod DASH mobile platform, is a tubeless automated insulin delivery system that integrates with a CGM to manage blood sugar and is fully controlled by a compatible personal smartphone or Omnipod 5 Controller. The CGM is sold separately by third parties. Omnipod DASH features a secure Bluetooth enabled Pod that is controlled by a smartphone-like PDM with color touch screen user interface. We have been phasing-out Classic Omnipod as we launch Omnipod 5.
Our financial objective is to sustain profitable growth. To achieve this, we launched Omnipod 5 in the United States in 2022 and in the United Kingdom and Germany in June and August 2023, respectively. In June 2024, we launched our full market releases of Omnipod 5 in the Netherlands and France, and most recently, in January 2025, we announced that Omnipod 5 is now available in Italy, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. Additionally, we are working on further building our international teams and advancing our regulatory, reimbursement, and market development efforts so we can bring Omnipod 5 to additional international markets.
In August 2024, we received FDA clearance for an expanded indication of Omnipod 5 for people with type 2 diabetes. Due to the positive results of our Omnipod 5 type 2 pivotal trial and the learnings from our Omnipod GO commercial pilot, we made a strategic decision to drive growth in the type 2 diabetes market with Omnipod 5 and, accordingly, decided not to move forward with the commercialization of Omnipod GO.
During 2024, we completed participant enrollment in our RADIANT study in France, the United Kingdom, and Belgium, which is our Omnipod 5 with Libre 2 randomized controlled trial. Similar to the randomized control trial that we completed in the United States and France for Omnipod 5 with DexCom’s G6 CGM, the objective is to provide data to support our pricing and market access initiatives as we roll out Omnipod 5 with multiple sensors across our international markets. We also continue to expand market access and awareness of Omnipod products through our direct to consumer advertising programs and through growing our presence in the U.S. pharmacy channel, where access to Omnipod 5 and Omnipod DASH is simpler and affordable, as no up-front investment is required.
We also continue to focus on our product development efforts, including AID offerings, such as choice of smartphone integration and CGM, and enhancing the customer experience through digital product and data capabilities. Omnipod 5 integration with Dexcom’s G6 CGM is available in every country where Omnipod 5 is available. In June 2024, we began our full market release of Omnipod 5 with Dexcom’s G7 CGM in the United States. Similarly, in June 2024 we launched our full market release of Omnipod 5 with Libre 2 Plus for individuals aged two years and older with type 1 diabetes in both the United Kingdom and Netherlands, where we offer sensor of choice (integration with either Abbott’s Libre 2 Plus or Dexcom’s G6 CGM). We also now offer sensor of choice in the United States, Italy, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. Additionally, in October 2024, our Omnipod 5 app for iPhone compatible with Dexcom’s G6 CGM became fully available in the United States.
Finally, we continue to take steps to strengthen our global manufacturing capabilities. In 2024, we began producing product at our newly constructed manufacturing plant in Malaysia. This plant provides us with increased capacity to satisfy our growing demand, supports our international expansion strategy, and is expected to drive higher gross margins over time.
Results of Operations
The discussion of our results of operations for 2022 has been omitted from this Form 10-K but can be found in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2024.

Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pods are intended to be used continuously for up to three days, after which it may be replaced with a new disposable Pod. We recently achieved a milestone of 500,000 estimated active global customers using Omnipod products, including 365,000 global customers using Omnipod 5. The unique patented design of the Omnipod allows us to provide Pod therapy at a relatively low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows for it and our pay-as-you-go pricing model reduces the risk to third-party payors. As we grow our customer base, we expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenues through recurring sales of our disposable Pods, which provide recurring revenue.
Following our strategic decision to not move forward with the commercialization of Omnipod GO discussed above, we recorded a charge of $13.5 million related to certain inventory components that we no longer expect to utilize, which is included in our consolidated statement of income for 2024.
In 2022, we issued two voluntary Medical Device Correction (“MDC”) notices, one for our Omnipod DASH PDM related to its battery and the other for our Omnipod 5 Controller related to its charging port and cable. During 2022, we initially recorded a net charge of $57.9 million related to these MDCs and, in 2023, we recorded $11.5 million of income associated with a change in our estimated liability for the MDCs, primarily due to lower distribution costs.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue increased $374.5 million, or 22.1%, to $2,071.6 million in 2024, compared with $1,697.1 million in 2023. Constant currency revenue growth of 21.9% was primarily driven by higher volume largely attributable to our growing customer base and, to a lesser extent, higher price.
U.S.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. increased $258.3 million, or 20.6%, in 2024 to $1,509.3 million, compared with $1,251.0 million in 2023. This increase primarily resulted from higher volume through the pharmacy channel driven by growing our customer base, partially offset by a decrease in estimated inventory days-on-hand at distributors and lower conversions to Omnipod 5. Inventory days-on-hand declined to more normal levels following an acceleration of orders by U.S. pharmacy wholesales in advance of the implementation of our new ERP system on January 1, 2024. We experienced a benefit from conversions to Omnipod 5 in the prior year following the launch of the product in the latter half of 2022 since users generally fill both their Omnipod 5 starter kit and their first month of refills simultaneously. Conversions to Omnipod 5 declined since the vast majority of U.S. conversions to Omnipod 5 occurred in 2023. To a lesser extent, the revenue increase was driven by a higher average selling price resulting from our annual wholesale acquisition cost increase implemented during the second quarter of 2024 and growth in the pharmacy channel.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. includes $587.8 million of related party revenue in 2024, compared with $473.7 million in 2023. The $114.1 million increase primarily resulted from growth through the pharmacy channel. Additional information regarding our related party transactions is provided in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements.
In 2025, we expect strong U.S. revenue growth primarily driven by the benefits of our recurring revenue model and continued volume growth of Omnipod 5. Our recent type 2 indication for Omnipod 5, the launch of Omnipod 5 integrations with both Dexcom’s G7 CGM and Libre 2 Plus, and the launch our Omnipod 5 app for iPhone, are expected to contribute to an increase in our customer base.
International
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in our international markets increased $113.3 million, or 27.6%, in 2024 to $523.4 million, compared with $410.1 million in 2023. Excluding the 0.7% favorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 26.9% increase in revenue was primarily due to higher volumes from the launches of Omnipod 5 in the United Kingdom and Germany in the prior year, driven by our growing customer base and the favorable impact of conversions to
33
Table of Contents
Omnipod 5. A higher average selling price for Omnipod 5 compared with Omnipod DASH and Classic Omnipod also contributed to the revenue increase, although to a lesser extent.
In 2025, we expect higher International Omnipod revenue due to continued volume growth driven by new customers and conversions to Omnipod 5 primarily due to the launch of Omnipod 5 in France and the Netherlands, growth from the earlier launches in Germany and the United Kingdom, and the continued roll out of Omnipod 5 in additional markets.
Drug Delivery
Substantially all of our Drug Delivery revenue consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy. Drug Delivery revenue increased $2.9 million, or 8.1%, to $38.9 million in 2024, compared with $36.0 million in 2023. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in orders from our partner, partially offset by a reimbursement from our partner to cover a portion of our increased production costs in the prior year, which did not repeat in the current year.
Costs and Expenses

| Research and development expenses | $ | 219.6 | 10.6 | % | $ | 205.0 | 12.1 | % | |||||
| Selling, general and administrative expenses | $ | 917.2 | 44.3 | % | $ | 734.9 | 43.3 | % |
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for 2024 increased $88.7 million, or 16.5%, to $625.9 million, compared with $537.2 million in 2023. Gross margin was 69.8% in 2024, compared with 68.3% in 2023. The 1.5 point increase in gross margin was primarily driven by pricing benefits in both the U.S. pharmacy channel and in our international markets, improved manufacturing efficiencies, and procurement savings. These increases were partially offset by a $13.5 million charge related to certain components utilized in Omnipod GO, which we decided not to commercialize, an $11.5 million accrual reversal during the prior year associated with the voluntary MDC notices we issued in 2022, which did not recur in the current year, and higher costs due to inflation.
We expect gross margin to further increase to approximately 70.5% in 2025 primarily due to improved manufacturing efficiencies.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses increased $14.6 million, or 7.1%, to $219.6 million for 2024, compared with $205.0 million for 2023. Research and development expenses as a percent of revenue decreased to 10.6% in 2024, compared with 12.1% in 2023 primarily due to an increase in sustaining costs following the launch of Omnipod 5 in the United States, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. We expect research and development spending in 2025 to increase compared with 2024 as we continue to invest in advancing our innovation and clinical pipeline.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $182.3 million, or 24.8%, to $917.2 million in 2024, compared with $734.9 million in 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions to support our growth, international expansion and sustain Omnipod 5, and as a result of our new organizational structure. To a lesser extent, the increase was due to higher legal fees to defend our intellectual property and support our business growth; an increase in advertising expense; higher costs associated with the continued commercial rollout of Omnipod 5 in international markets; and increases in travel and expenses resulting from headcount additions.
We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in 2025 compared with 2024 due to investments in our operating structure, primarily headcount additions, particularly in the areas of customer support, sales and information technology support, to facilitate continued growth globally. We also plan to make additional investments to support the Omnipod platform and to continue support the phased launch of Omnipod 5 in our existing international markets and prepare for expansion into new countries.
Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense and Income
Interest expense increased $6.5 million to $42.7 million in 2024, compared with $36.2 million in 2023 primarily due to fees paid to amend our Term Loan. Interest income increased $10.9 million to $39.5 million in 2024, compared with $28.6 million in 2023 primarily driven by increased average cash balances and higher interest rates.

Table of Contents
Other (Expense) Income, net
Other expense, net of $5.5 million for 2024 consists primarily of $3.8 million of loss related to fair value adjustments associated with a strategic debt investment. Other income, net of $2.2 million for 2023 consists primarily of $2.6 million of gains related to fair value adjustments associated with our strategic debt and equity investments.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax benefit was $118.1 million on pre-tax income of $300.2 million for 2024, compared with income tax expense of $8.3 million on pre-tax income of $214.6 million for 2023. Our effective tax rate was a benefit of 39.3% for 2024, compared with a provision of 3.9% for 2023. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily due to a $182.5 million non-cash tax benefit from the release of the majority of our valuation allowance against deferred tax assets discussed in Note 22 to our consolidated financial statements and a $8.3 million tax benefit from a research and development tax credit recovery project for the years 2017 through 2022. These tax benefits were partially offset by a $8.2 million decrease in tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) and G20 international forum released the Model Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) rules (“Model Rules”) under Pillar Two. These Model Rules set forth the common approach for a Global Minimum Tax at 15% for multinational enterprises with revenue greater than €750 million and is expected to be applicable to Insulet. Pillar Two has been adopted by the Council of the European Union for implementation by European Union member states by December 31, 2023, with effect for tax years beginning 2024. Similar directives under Pillar Two are already adopted or expected to be adopted by taxing authorities in other countries where Insulet has business operations, with widespread implementation of the Global Minimum Tax in 2024 and 2025. There was no impact on the consolidated financial statements for 2024. While we do not expect the Pillar Two Model Rules and related legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for 2025, we continue to evaluate their potential impact on future years.
Adjusted EBITDA
The table below presents reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”):
| Years Ended December 31, | ||||||

| Unrealized loss (gain) on investments(2) | 3.8 | (2.6) | ||||
| Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 457.3 | $ | 329.2 |
(1) Represents net (income) expense resulting from estimated costs associated with the voluntary MDC notices issued in the fourth quarter of 2022 and adjustments to those costs, which is included in cost of revenue. Refer to Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
(2) Represents non-operating gain or loss related to fair value adjustments of strategic debt and other investments.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures described below.
Constant currency revenue growth represents the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. We present constant currency revenue growth because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results. It is also one of the performance metrics that determines management incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income plus net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other significant transactions or events, such as legal settlements, medical device corrections, gains (losses) on investments, and loss on extinguishment of debt, which affect the period-to-period comparability of our performances, as applicable. We present Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it as a supplemental measure in assessing our performance, and we believe that it is helpful to investors and other interested parties as a measure of our
35
Table of Contents
comparative performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used measure in determining business value and we use it internally to report results.
Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, represents the cash that we have available to pursue opportunities that we believe enhance shareholder value and is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Management uses this non-GAAP measure, in addition to U.S. GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating results.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the above definitions may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations; accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our current liquidity as further described below will be sufficient to meet our projected operating, investing and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Capitalization
The following table contains several key measures to gauge our financial condition and liquidity at the end of each year:
| As of December 31, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2024 | 2023 | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 953.4 | $ | 704.2 | ||
| Current portion of long-term debt | $ | 83.8 | $ | 49.4 | ||
| Long-term debt, net | $ | 1,296.1 | $ | 1,366.4 | ||
| Total debt, net | $ | 1,379.9 | $ | 1,415.8 | ||
| Total stockholders’ equity | $ | 1,211.6 | $ | 732.7 | ||
| Debt-to-total capital ratio | 53 | % | 66 | % | ||
| Net debt-to-total capital ratio | 16 | % | 33 | % |
Convertible Debt
To finance our operations and global expansion, we have periodically issued convertible senior notes, which are convertible into our common stock. As of December 31, 2024, the following Convertible Senior Notes were outstanding:
| Issuance Date | Coupon | Principal Outstanding (in millions) | Due Date | Conversion Rate(1) | Conversion Price per Share of Common Stock | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| September 2019 | 0.375% | $ | 800.0 | September 2026 | 4.4105 | $226.73 |
(1) Per $1,000 face value of notes.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes, we purchased capped call options (“Capped Calls”) on our common stock. By entering into the Capped Calls, we expect to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock (or, in the event the conversion is settled in cash, to provide a source of cash to settle a portion of our cash payment obligation) if at the time of conversion our stock price exceeds the conversion price under the Convertible Senior Notes. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $335.90 per share and cover 3.5 million shares of our common stock.
Credit Agreement
We have a $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which expires in 2028. At December 31, 2024, no amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to maintain a specified leverage ratio when there are amounts of at least 35% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Facility outstanding. It also contains other customary covenants, none of which we consider restrictive to our operations. Additionally, we have a Term Loan B (“Term Loan”), which matures in 2031, which contains covenants restricting or limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make asset dispositions, create or permit liens, sell, transfer or exchange assets, guarantee certain indebtedness, and make acquisitions and other investments.
Additional information regarding our debt is provided in Notes 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Cash Flows
| Years Ended December 31, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2024 | 2023 | ||||
| Cash provided by (used in): | ||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 430.3 | $ | 145.7 | ||

| Net increase in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | 249.2 | $ | 14.5 |
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $430.3 million in 2024 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for deferred income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and a $17.0 million working capital outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $32.4 million increase in inventories, a $21.9 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, and a $10.4 million increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by a $45.5 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in inventories was primarily due to a planned inventory build to satisfy our growing demand and, to a lesser extent, to mitigate supply chain risk. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in prepaid software fees, cloud computing upgrade and implementation costs, prepaid income taxes, and capitalized commissions. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in sales driven by our growing customer base. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by an increase in compensation costs due to headcount additions and an increase in professional consulting fees primarily driven by higher legal costs and direct-to-consumer spending.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $146.2 million in 2024, compared with $119.4 million in 2023.
Capital Spending—Capital expenditures were $124.9 million and $75.6 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $49.3 million increase primarily related to the purchase of machinery, equipment and tooling to increase our manufacturing capacity for our new Malaysia manufacturing facility and continuous improvements at our other owned manufacturing facility. We expect capital expenditures for 2025 to increase compared with 2024 as we continue to expand and optimize our manufacturing and supply chain operations as well as support our global expansion. We expect to fund our capital expenditures using existing cash.
Investments in Developed Software—Investments in developed software were $9.1 million and $8.5 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively, and primarily related to investments in projects to support our cloud-based capabilities.
Investments—In 2024 and 2023, we made strategic investments in private companies in the amount of $12.2 million and $7.2 million, respectively.
Acquisitions—In 2023, we paid Bigfoot Biomedical, Inc. $25.1 million, including transaction costs, to acquire patent assets related to pump-based AID technologies. We also paid a purchase price holdback of $3.0 million associated with our 2022 acquisition of substantially all the assets related to the manufacture and production of shape-memory alloy wire assemblies used in the production of our product from Dynalloy, Inc.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $28.1 million in 2024, compared with $13.6 million in 2023.
Debt Issuance and Repayments—In 2024, we refinanced our Term Loan, which resulted in net cash proceeds of $130.0 million, net of issuance costs, and the simultaneous repayment of $132.2 million of the Term Loan. Refer to Note 15 for more information regarding this refinancing. Additionally, we made $26.4 million and $27.0 million of aggregate principal payments on our equipment financings, Term Loan, and mortgage in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Finance Lease Payments—During 2024, we made $22.7 million in finance lease repayments associated with our Malaysia manufacturing facility, including the amount associated with exercising our option to purchase the property.
Proceeds and Repayments from Secured Borrowing—During 2024, we received $45.5 million of cash advances from a third-party to whom we outsource our insurance claim submissions process in a certain country. Additionally, we repaid $34.8 million of cash advances during 2024.

Proceeds from Exercise of Stock Options—Proceeds from option exercises were $8.2 million and $16.3 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $8.1 million decrease was primarily driven by option exercises by former executives in the prior year.
Proceeds from Shares Issued Under Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)—Proceeds from the issuance of shares under the ESPP were $11.9 million and $10.6 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Payment of Taxes for Restricted Stock Net Settlements—Payments for taxes related to net restricted and performance stock unit settlements were $7.6 million and $13.2 million in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $5.6 million decrease was primarily driven by a lower fair market value of the restricted and performance stock units (“PSUs”) that vested in 2024 compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher achievement of the PSUs that vested in 2024 (111% achievement), compared to in the prior year (84% achievement).
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow was $305.4 million in 2024, compared with $70.1 million in 2023. The $235.3 million increase in free cash flow primarily resulted from the $285.8 million increase in gross profit, partially offset by the $49.3 million increase in capital expenditures.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure, which should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for our reported financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” A reconciliation between net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure) and free cash flow is as follows:

(3)Purchase obligations include commitments for the purchase of components for our products, commitments related to establishing additional manufacturing capabilities, and other commitments for purchases of goods or services in the normal course of business. These commitments are derived from purchase orders, supplier contracts and open orders based on projected demand information.
Legal Proceedings—In December 2024, a jury found that EOFlow Co., Ltd. (“EOFlow”) and several other defendants misappropriated certain of our trade secrets and awarded us $452 million in damages. EOFlow subsequently moved for a directed verdict and for a new trial, as well as for a reduction of the jury award, and we moved for a permanent worldwide injunction on the sale of EOFlow’s EOPatch 2 product and any other products that embody our trade secrets. EOFlow and other defendants may seek to appeal the verdict. Further, EOFlow may not be able to satisfy this damage award; accordingly, it has not been recorded in our consolidated statement of income. Refer to Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this matter.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The following accounting policies are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period.
Pharmacy Rebates
We exercise significant judgment when we determine variable consideration adjustments. As discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we are subject to rebates on pricing programs with managed care organizations, such as pharmacy benefit managers, governmental and third-party commercial payors, primarily in the United States. Reductions to our revenues for rebates on products sold through our distributors under pharmacy benefits are the most significant component of variable consideration. In addition, pharmacy rebates are most at risk for significant adjustment because of the time delay between the recording of the provision when revenue is recognized and its ultimate settlement, an interval that generally ranges from 30 to 90 days, but can last up to one year. Our estimates for pharmacy rebates are based on historical experience, revenue growth, distribution channel lag, contract amendments and trends. Pharmacy rebates charged against gross sales amounted to $452.7 million, $367.3 million, and $175.2 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. When actual pharmacy rebate settlements differ from our estimates, we adjust our estimates, which affects reported revenue in the period that such variances become known.
Income Taxes
We estimate our income taxes based on the various jurisdictions where we conduct business. Significant judgment is required in determining our income tax provision. The calculation of our tax liabilities involves uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations and the potential for future adjustments by tax authorities. While we believe we have appropriate support for the positions taken on our tax returns, we regularly assess the potential outcomes of examinations in determining the adequacy of our provision for income taxes and adjust the income tax provision, income taxes payable, and deferred taxes in the period in which the facts that give rise to a revision become known.
Significant judgement is required in determining whether it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which a deferred tax asset can be utilized. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including cumulative income in recent fiscal years, our forecast of future taxable income exclusive of certain reversing temporary differences and significant risks and uncertainties related to our business. In determining future taxable income, we are responsible for assumptions utilized including the amount of state, federal and international pre-tax operating income, the reversal of certain temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions, which are based on our commercial experience to date and are consistent with the plans and estimates that we are using to manage our underlying business.
During 2024, we determined that it is more likely than not that we will realize substantially all of our net deferred tax assets after weighing positive and negative evidence to assess recoverability, including cumulative income (loss) position, revenue growth, current profitability, and expectations regarding future forecasted income. Accordingly, in 2024, we recorded a tax benefit of $182.5 million from the release of our valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2024, we have a valuation allowance of $23.9 million on certain U.S. state tax credits and state net operating loss carryforwards because it is more likely than not that those deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Significant judgment is also required to evaluate uncertain tax positions and is based on a number of factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax laws, correspondence with tax authorities during the course of audits and effective settlement of audit issues. Changes in the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions could result in a material increase or decrease in our income tax expense in the period in which we make the change, which could have a material impact on our effective rate and results of operations.
Accounting Standards Issued and Not Yet Adopted as of December 31, 2024
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires incremental annual income tax disclosures. The new guidance standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation and requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. We are required to comply with these new disclosure requirements beginning with our annual filing for 2025.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expenses Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The new guidance requires disaggregated disclosure of expenses included in
39
Table of Contents
certain expense captions presented in the statements of incomes as well as additional disclosures about selling expenses. We are required to comply with these new disclosure requirements beginning with our annual filing for 2027.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20), which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. We are required to comply with the updates beginning with our interim and annual filings for 2026. The adoption of ASU 2024-04 is not expected to impact our consolidated financial statements.

Overview
Our mission is to improve the lives of people with diabetes. We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture, and sale of our proprietary continuous insulin delivery system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. The Omnipod platform, includes: Classic Omnipod, its next generation Omnipod DASH, the most recent generation Omnipod 5, and our latest innovation, Omnipod GO, which received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) clearance in 2023, all of which eliminate the need for multiple daily injections using syringes or insulin pens or the use of pump and tubing. Omnipod DASH features a secure Bluetooth enabled Pod that is controlled by a smartphone-like PDM with a color touch screen user interface. Omnipod 5, which builds on our Omnipod DASH mobile platform, is a tubeless automated insulin delivery system that integrates with a continuous glucose monitor (“CGM”) to manage blood sugar and is fully controlled by a compatible personal smartphone or Omnipod 5 Controller. The CGM is sold separately by a third party. Omnipod GO, for which we are currently conducting a pilot program in the United States, is our basal-only Pod for individuals with type 2 diabetes age 18 and older who require insulin.
Our long-term financial objective is to sustain profitable growth. To achieve this goal, we launched Omnipod 5 in the United States in August 2022 and in the United Kingdom and Germany in June and August 2023, respectively. Subsequent to the launch of Omnipod 5, we began to phase-out our Classic Omnipod in the U.S. in 2023, since the vast majority of our U.S. customer base is no longer using this product.
We are working on further building our international teams and advancing our regulatory, reimbursement, and market development efforts so we can bring Omnipod 5 to additional international markets. We plan to launch Omnipod 5 in more European markets in 2024 starting with the Netherlands. Additionally, in December 2023, we completed enrollment for our pivotal trial for Omnipod 5 with the goal of expanding Omnipod 5’s indication to type 2 users. We expect to complete the trial and submit to the FDA for an expanded indication by the end of 2024.
We have completed a randomized control trial in the U.S. and France for Omnipod 5 with DexCom’s G6 continuous glucose monitor (“CGM”) to support our pricing and market access initiatives. We also continue to expand market access and awareness of Omnipod products through our direct to consumer advertising programs and through growing our presence in the U.S. pharmacy channel, where access to Omnipod 5 and Omnipod DASH is simpler and affordable, as no up-front investment is required.
We also continue to take steps to strengthen our global manufacturing capabilities. We recently completed construction of a new manufacturing plant in Malaysia to support our international expansion strategy, further ensure product supply, and drive higher gross margins over time. We expect to begin production at this new manufacturing facility in 2024.
Finally, we continue to focus on our product development efforts, including AID offerings such as choice of smartphone integration and CGM, and enhancing the customer experience through digital product and data capabilities. In February 2024, we began our limited market release of Omnipod 5 with Dexcom’s G7 CGM in the United States and received CE mark approval for the added compatibility of Libre 2 Plus with Omnipod 5 for individuals aged two years and older with type 1 diabetes. We expect to launch a limited market release of Omnipod 5 with Libre 2 Plus in the U.K. and the Netherlands in 2024. Additionally, we received FDA clearance for the Omnipod 5 App for iPhone in the fourth quarter of 2023 and plan to launch a limited market release in the U.S. in 2024.
Results of Operations
The discussion of our results of operations for 2021 has been omitted from this Form 10-K but can be found in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2023.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pod is intended to be used continuously for up to three days, after which it is replaced with a new disposable Pod. We recently achieved a milestone of approximately 425,000 estimated active global customers using Omnipod products, including approximately 250,000 global customers using Omnipod 5. Our product’s unique patented design allows us to provide Pod therapy at a relatively low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows for it and our pay-as-you-go
32
Table of Contents
pricing model reduces the risk to third-party payors. As we grow our customer base, we expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenues through recurring sales of our disposable Pods, which provide recurring revenue.
In 2022, we issued two voluntary Medical Device Corrections (“MDCs”), one in October for our Omnipod DASH PDM related to its battery and the other in November for our Omnipod 5 Controller related to its charging port and cable. During 2022, we initially recorded a net charge of $57.9 million related to these MDCs. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded $11.5 million of income associated with a change in our estimated liability for the MDCs, primarily due to lower distribution costs.
We continue to experience challenges stemming from the global supply chain disruption; however, while there is no guarantee of future performance, to date we have been able to successfully mitigate this disruption and ensure uninterrupted supply to our customers by increasing our inventory levels and taking other measures. While our mitigation efforts and inflation have and are expected to continue to negatively impact gross margins and net income in 2024, we intend to continue to work to improve productivity to help offset these costs.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue for 2023 increased $391.8 million, or 30.0%, to $1,697.1 million, compared with $1,305.3 million in 2022. Constant currency revenue growth of 29.6% was primarily driven by higher volume and, to a lesser extent, favorable sales channel mix, partially offset by decreased drug delivery revenue.
U.S.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. increased $366.2 million, or 41.4%, in 2023 to $1,251.0 million, compared with $884.8 million in 2022. This increase primarily resulted from higher volumes driven by growing our customer base and, to a lesser extent, growth through the pharmacy channel, where Pods have a higher average selling price due in part to the fact that we offer the PDM/Controller for no charge, and an increase in estimated inventory days-on-hand at distributors.
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in the U.S. includes $473.7 million of related party revenue in 2023, compared with $249.9 million in 2022. The $223.8 million increase primarily resulted from growth through the pharmacy channel. Additional information regarding our related party transactions is provided in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements.
In 2024, we expect strong U.S. revenue growth driven by continued volume growth of Omnipod 5, continued sales of Omnipod DASH, and the benefits of our recurring revenue model and pharmacy channel access. We expect these increases to be partially offset by lower conversions from Classic Omnipod and Omnipod DASH to Omnipod 5 in the first half of the year compared to 2023 since the vast majority of conversions to Omnipod 5 occurred in 2023.
International
Revenue from the sale of Omnipod products in our international markets increased $47.1 million, or 13.0%, in 2023 to $410.1 million, compared with $363.0 million in 2022. Excluding the 1.6% favorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 11.4% increase in revenue was primarily due to higher volumes as we continue to expand awareness and access to Omnipod DASH and, to a lesser extent, the timing of revenue recognition related to deferrals associated with our Omnipod DASH MDC and a technology upgrade program, and product mix from the launch of Omnipod 5 in the United Kingdom. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in estimated days-on-hand at distributors and higher attrition in the countries where we have not yet launched Omnipod 5 as we continue to be impacted by competition from AID systems.
In 2024, we expect higher International revenue due to continued volume growth driven by new customers and conversions to Omnipod 5 in the U.K. and Germany and to a lesser extent, the ongoing adoption of Omnipod DASH. We expect these increases to be partially offset by competition from AID systems.

Drug Delivery
Substantially all of our Drug Delivery revenue consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy. Drug Delivery revenue for 2023 decreased $21.5 million, or 37.4%, to $36.0 million, compared with $57.5 million in 2022. This decrease primarily resulted from a lower forecast from our partner, partially offset by a higher selling price. In 2024, we expect Drug Delivery revenue to decline $18 million to $22 million due to a lower forecast from our partner.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for 2023 increased $37.5 million, or 7.5%, to $537.2 million, compared with $499.7 million in 2022. Gross margin was 68.3% in 2023, compared with 61.7% in 2022. The 6.6 point increase in gross margin was primarily driven by the $57.9 million net charge associated with the voluntary MDC notices issued in 2022, which did not repeat in the current period, and an $11.5 million revision to the voluntary MDC liability in 2023, due to lower than expected distribution costs. The increase was also driven by higher average selling prices primarily due to growth in the pharmacy channel and improved manufacturing efficiencies. These increases were partially offset by higher production costs associated with Omnipod 5 and U.S. manufacturing as it continues to become a larger portion of total production, and to a lesser extent, continued inflation.
We expect gross margin for 2024 to be in the range of 68% to 69%. We anticipate gross margin to be relatively level due to higher average selling prices primarily due to growth in the pharmacy channel and improved manufacturing efficiencies, partially offset by $11.5 million of income associated with a reduction to our MDC liability in 2023, which will not recur, and higher costs associated with our new product launches.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses for 2023 increased $24.8 million, or 13.8%, to $205.0 million, compared with $180.2 million in 2022. This increase was primarily due to year-over-year headcount additions to support our continued investment in the development of Omnipod products and third-party costs to support clinical trials. Research and development expenses as a percent of revenue declined to 12.1% in 2023, compared with 13.8% in 2022 primarily due to an increase in sustaining costs following the launch of Omnipod 5 in the United States, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. We expect research and development spending in 2024 to increase compared with 2023 as we continue to invest in advancing our innovation and clinical pipeline.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2023 increased $147.1 million, or 25.0%, to $734.9 million, compared with $587.8 million in 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions, mainly to support international growth and costs associated with our new leadership structure that is designed to accelerate innovation and commercialization. In addition, we had higher direct-to-consumer advertising spend and third-party customer service costs to support Omnipod 5 adoption, and an increase in software license fees driven by investments in new systems due to our growing business and increased headcount. To a lesser extent, the increase was due to higher amortization of cloud computing implementation costs and higher third-party training costs. These increases were partially offset by $27.3 million of legal costs incurred in the prior year related to the settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit, associated legal fees, and an estimated liability to settle a contract dispute.
We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in 2024 compared with 2023 due to investments in our operating structure, primarily headcount additions, to facilitate continued growth, including customer support. Additionally, we plan to make additional investments to support our Omnipod platform, including market acceptance and access, and the phased launch of Omnipod 5 in our international markets.

Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense and Income
Interest expense of $36.2 million in 2023 was level with interest expense of $36.0 million in 2022. Interest income for 2023 increased $19.3 million to $28.6 million, compared with $9.3 million in 2022. This increase was primarily driven by higher interest rates.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income of $2.2 million for 2023 consists primarily of $2.6 million of gains related to fair value adjustments associated with our strategic debt and equity investments. Other expense of $1.1 million for 2022 consists primarily of net unrealized and realized foreign currency losses.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $8.3 million on pre-tax income of $214.6 million for 2023 and $5.2 million on pre-tax income of $9.8 million for 2022. Our effective tax rate was 3.9% and 53.4% for 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income in the U.S. where we have net operating loss carryforwards to reduce taxable profits and a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we have not reported any tax benefit relating to the remaining net operating loss carryforwards and income tax credit carryforwards that are available for utilization in future periods.
We maintain a $202.9 million valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2023. Given our current earnings and anticipated future earnings, we believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow us to reach a conclusion that a significant portion of our valuation allowance will no longer be needed. A release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense in the period the release is recorded. However, the timing and amount of the valuation allowance release, if any, are unknown as this is subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability that we are able to actually achieve in future periods and other evidence that will be considered at the time of the assessment. Refer to Note 23 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our income tax expense.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) and G20 international forum released the Model Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) rules (“Model Rules”) under Pillar Two. These Model Rules set forth the common approach for a Global Minimum Tax at 15% for multinational enterprises with revenue greater than €750 million and is expected to be applicable to Insulet. In December 2022, Pillar Two was adopted by the Council of the European Union for implementation by European Union member states by December 31, 2023, with effect for tax years beginning in calendar year 2024. Similar directives under Pillar Two are already adopted or expected to be adopted by taxing authorities in other countries where Insulet has business operations, with widespread implementation of the Global Minimum Tax in calendar years 2024 and 2025. We are continuing to evaluate the Model Rules for Pillar Two and related legislation, and their potential impact on future periods.

(4) Represents costs associated with the retirement and advisory services of our former chief executive officer, including $2.3 million of accelerated stock-based compensation expense.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:
Constant currency revenue growth represents the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. We present constant currency revenue growth because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results. It is also one of the performance metrics that determines management incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income plus net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other significant transactions or events, such as legal settlements, medical device corrections, gains (losses) on investments, and loss on extinguishment of debt, which affect the period-to-period comparability of our operating performances, as applicable. We present Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it as a supplemental measure in assessing our operating performance, and we believe that it is helpful to investors, and other interested parties as a measure of our comparative operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used measure in determining business value and we use it internally to report results.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the above definitions may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations; accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capitalization
The following table contains several key measures to gauge our financial condition and liquidity at the end of each year:
| As of December 31, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2023 | 2022 | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 704.2 | $ | 674.7 | ||
| Current portion of long-term debt | $ | 49.4 | $ | 27.5 | ||

| Debt-to-total capital ratio | 66 | % | 75 | % | ||
| Net debt-to-total capital ratio | 33 | % | 39 | % |
Convertible Debt
To finance our operations and global expansion, we have periodically issued convertible senior notes, which are convertible into our common stock. As of December 31, 2023, the following notes were outstanding:
| Issuance Date | Coupon | Principal Outstanding (in millions) | Due Date | Conversion Rate(1) | Conversion Price per Share of Common Stock | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| September 2019 | 0.375% | $ | 800.0 | September 2026 | 4.4105 | $226.73 |
(1) Per $1,000 face value of notes.
In connection with the issuance of the 0.375% Convertible Senior Notes (“0.375% Notes”), we purchased capped call options (“Capped Calls”) on our common stock. By entering into the Capped Calls, we expect to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock (or, in the event the conversion is settled in cash, to provide a source of cash to settle a portion of our cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion our stock price exceeds the conversion price under the 0.375% Notes. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $335.90 per share and cover 3.5 million shares of our common stock.
Credit Agreement
We have a $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which expires in 2028. At December 31, 2023, no amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to maintain a specified leverage ratio under certain conditions when there are amounts outstanding under the facility. It also contains other customary covenants, none of which are considered restrictive to our operations. Additionally, we have a seven year term loan, which matures in 2028, that contains covenants restricting or limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make asset dispositions, create or permit liens, sell, transfer or exchange assets, guarantee certain indebtedness, and make acquisitions and other investments.
Additional information regarding our debt is provided in Notes 16 and 26 to the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our current liquidity will be sufficient to meet our projected operating, investing, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $145.7 million in 2023 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense, which was more than offset by a $190.6 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $154.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a $53.6 million increase in inventories and a $42.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $70.3 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in sales in the U.S. pharmacy channel, which has longer payment terms. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build to mitigate supply chain risk and satisfy demand. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was driven by an increase in prepaid cloud computing implementation and upgrade costs, subscription renewal costs, and other receivables. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by an increase in accrued rebates mainly due to revenue growth in the pharmacy channel and an increase in compensation costs due to higher incentive compensation achievement and headcount additions, partially offset by warranty fulfillment associated with the voluntary MDCs issued in 2022.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $119.0 million in 2022 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $2.5 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $36.8 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $51.8 million increase in accounts receivable, and a $49.1 million increase in inventories, partially offset by a $137.6 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in cloud computing implementation costs. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in sales in the U.S. pharmacy channel, which has longer payment terms, partially offset by a decrease in unbilled accounts receivable related to lower production volumes of our Drug Delivery product. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build to satisfy demand. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by the voluntary MDCs issued for our Omnipod DASH PDMs and Omnipod 5 Controllers, an increase in rebates due to growth in the pharmacy channel and an increase in compensation costs due to higher incentive compensation achievement and head count additions.
Investing Activities
We had $119.4 million of net cash used in investing activities in 2023, compared with $191.1 million in 2022.
Capital Spending—Capital expenditures were $75.6 million and $122.9 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively, and primarily related to the purchase of equipment to increase our manufacturing capacity. We expect capital expenditures for 2024 to increase compared with 2023 given the timing of spending on machinery, equipment and tooling for our new Malaysia manufacturing facility and to support continuous improvement efforts in our other manufacturing locations. To a lesser extent, we expect capital expenditures to increase due to investments in our information technology infrastructure. We expect to fund our capital expenditures using existing cash.
Investments in Developed Software—Investments in developed software were $8.5 million and $12.9 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively, and primarily related to investments in projects to support our cloud-based capabilities.
Acquisitions—In 2023, we paid Bigfoot Biomedical, Inc. $25.1 million, including transaction costs, to acquire patent assets related to pump-based AID technologies. In 2022, we paid $26.0 million to acquire substantially all the assets related to the manufacture and production of shape-memory alloy wire assemblies that are used in the production of Pods from Dynalloy, Inc. and $21.5 million to acquire developed technology and patents from Automated Glucose Control LLC. The remaining $3.0 million purchase price for the Dynalloy acquisition was paid during 2023.
Investments—In 2023 and 2022, we made strategic investments in private companies in the amount of $7.2 million and $7.8 million, respectively.
Financing Activities
We had $13.6 million of net cash used in financing activities in 2023, compared with $40.3 million in 2022.
Debt Repayments—During 2023, we made principal payments totaling $27.0 million on our equipment financings, term loan, and mortgage, compared with $24.5 million of aggregate payments in 2022.
Prepayments of Finance Lease Obligation—During 2022, we made $15.3 million in upfront payments upon entering into an agreement to acquire real estate in Malaysia. Refer to Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this lease.
Proceeds from Option Exercises and Shares Issued Under Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)—Total proceeds from option exercises and issuance of shares under the ESPP were $26.9 million and $16.3 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. The $10.6 million increase was primarily driven by option exercises by former executives.

Payment of Taxes for Restricted Stock Net Settlements—Payments for taxes related to net restricted and performance stock unit settlements were $13.2 million and $16.8 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. The $3.6 million decrease was primarily driven by lower achievement of the performance stock units that vested during 2023 (84% achievement in 2023 compared with 101% achievement in 2022).
Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations—A summary of our contractual obligations and commitments for debt, operating lease obligations and other obligations at December 31, 2023 is presented in the following table:
| (in millions) | Short Term | Long Term | Total | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Debt obligations | $ | 48.8 | $ | 1,395.0 | $ | 1,443.8 | ||||
| Interest payments(1)(2) | 58.7 | 152.7 | 211.4 | |||||||
| Purchase obligations(3) | 259.3 | 58.5 | 317.8 | |||||||
| Lease obligations(1) | 28.9 | 47.1 | 76.0 | |||||||
| Total contractual obligations | $ | 395.7 | $ | 1,653.3 | $ | 2,049.0 |
(1)Interest on debt and lease obligations are projected for future periods using the interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2023. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in market interest rates. Additional information regarding our leases is provided in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.
(2)Excludes the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements.
(3)Purchase obligations include commitments for the purchase of components for our products, commitments related to establishing additional manufacturing capabilities, and other commitments for purchases of goods or services in the normal course of business. These commitments are derived from purchase orders, supplier contracts and open orders based on projected demand information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In 2022, the Company entered into a $20 million uncommitted letter of credit facility, and concurrently with the execution of an agreement to acquire real estate in Malaysia, a letter of credit of $16.5 million was issued under the facility to backstop a bank guarantee for the same amount. The bank guarantee serves as security for the building until the Company purchases the property. In 2023, additional letters of credit totaling $3.5 million were issued under this facility. In aggregate, we had letters of credit totaling $20.9 million and $18.6 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Additional information regarding our letters of credit is provided in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The following accounting policies are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of the promised products in an amount that reflects the net consideration to which we expect to be entitled. We sell products both through distributors, who resell the products to consumers, and directly to consumers. Transaction price is typically based on contracted rates less any estimates of claim denials and historical reimbursement experience, guidelines and payor mix, and less estimated variable consideration adjustments, including rebates. Recognizing revenue requires us to exercise judgment and use estimates that can have a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue we report. We exercise significant judgment when we determine variable consideration adjustments. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price is included in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. We estimate reductions to our revenues for rebates paid to distributors in the United States and Canada and pharmacy benefit managers (“PBM”) in the United States. Rebates are based on contractual arrangements, which may vary. Our estimates are based on products sold, historical experience, trends, specific known market events and, as available, channel inventory data. Rebates charged against gross sales amounted to $465.5 million, $247.1 million and $143.3 million in 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Provisions for rebates, sales discounts, and returns are accounted for as a reduction of sales when revenue is recognized and are included within accounts receivable trade or accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, based upon the recipient of the rebate. If the actual amounts of consideration that we receive differ from our estimates, we adjust our estimates, which affects reported revenue in the period that such variances become known.

Our Drug Delivery product line includes sales of a modified version of the Pod to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies who use our technology as a delivery method for their drugs. Revenue from the Drug Delivery product was $36.0 million for 2023. Revenue for this product line is recognized as the product is produced. Accounting for Drug Delivery revenue requires us to select a method to measure progress towards the satisfaction of the performance obligation. This election of the most meaningful measure of progress by which to recognize Drug Delivery revenue requires the application of judgment. We elected the input method and selected a blend of cost and time to produce as the measure of progress. Accordingly, revenue is recognized over time using a blend of costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion and time incurred to date relative to total production time to measure progress toward the satisfaction of our performance obligations. We believe that both incurred cost and elapsed time reflect the value generated, which best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include third-party costs as well as an allocation of manufacturing overhead. Changes from quarter to quarter in quantity and stage of production of in-process inventory could have a significant quarterly impact on revenue.
Income Taxes
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amount and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Significant judgement is required in determining whether it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which a deferred tax asset can be utilized. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including cumulative income in recent fiscal years, our forecast of future taxable income exclusive of certain reversing temporary differences and significant risks and uncertainties related to our business. In determining future taxable income, we are responsible for assumptions utilized including the amount of state, federal and international pre-tax operating income, the reversal of certain temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions, which are based on our commercial experience to date and are consistent with the plans and estimates that we are using to manage our underlying business.
As of December 31, 2023, we recorded a full valuation allowance of $202.9 million on our net deferred tax assets because realizability is not more likely than not. If we determine that the deferred tax assets are realizable in a future period, it would result in material changes to income tax expense in that period.
Product Warranty
We provide a four-year warranty on our PDMs and Controllers sold in the United States and Europe and a five-year warranty on PDMs sold in Canada. In addition, we may replace Pods that do not function in accordance with product specifications. We estimate our warranty obligation at the time the product is shipped based on historical experience and the estimated cost to service the claims, which include the current product cost, reclaim costs, shipping and handling costs and direct and incremental distribution and customer service support costs. Since we continue to introduce new products and versions, the anticipated performance of the product over the warranty period is also considered in estimating warranty reserves. Changes to the actual replacement rates, which are evaluated quarterly, could have a material impact on our estimated warranty reserve.
Inventory Reserves
We reduce the carrying value of inventories for items that are potentially excess, obsolete, or slow-moving based on changes in customer demand, technology developments, or other economic factors in order to state inventories at net realizable value. Factors influencing these adjustments include inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. During 2023, we charged $3.7 million to the consolidated statement of operations for excess and obsolete inventory. The determination of this charge involved assumptions regarding the number of PDMs expected to be utilized to satisfy warranty claims during the phase-out period and the length of time we will continue to offer Classic Omnipod outside the United States.
Accounting Standards Issued and Not Yet Adopted as of December 31, 2023
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis, including enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. We are required to comply with these new disclosure requirements beginning with our annual filing for 2024. The guidance is applied retrospectively. We do not plan to early adopt ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 includes improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to information about rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The new guidance requires disclosure of specific categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and adds a requirement to disaggregate income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The new guidance also requires disclosure of pretax income disaggregated between domestic and foreign, income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign, and removes certain existing disclosure requirements. We are required to comply with these new disclosure requirements beginning with our annual filing for 2025. The guidance may be applied on a prospective basis or retrospective basis. We do not plan to early adopt the requirements of ASU 2023-09.

Overview
Our mission is to improve the lives of people with diabetes. We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture, and sale of our proprietary Omnipod System, a continuous insulin delivery system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. The Omnipod System features a small, lightweight, self-adhesive disposable tubeless Omnipod device that the user fills with insulin and wears directly on the body for up to three days at a time, which delivers personalized doses of insulin, and the PDM or Controller, a wireless handheld device that programs the Pod with the user’s personalized insulin-delivery instructions and wirelessly monitors the Pod’s operation.
The Omnipod System, includes: Classic Omnipod, its next generation Omnipod DASH, and the most recent generation Omnipod 5, all of which eliminate the need for multiple daily injections using syringes or insulin pens or the use of pump and tubing. Omnipod DASH features a secure Bluetooth enabled Pod and PDM with a color touch screen user interface supported by smartphone connectivity. Omnipod 5, which builds on our Omnipod DASH mobile platform, is a tubeless automated insulin delivery system, that integrates with a continuous glucose monitor (“CGM”) to manage blood sugar and is fully controlled by a compatible personal smartphone or Omnipod 5 Controller. The CGM is sold separately by a third party. In addition, substantially all of our Drug Delivery revenue consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy.
Our long-term financial objective is to sustain profitable growth. To achieve this goal, our efforts have been focused on the launch of Omnipod 5, which in 2022 received FDA clearance for individuals aged two years and older with type 1 diabetes. Our limited market release of Omnipod 5 in the United States began in the first quarter, and in the third quarter we launched our U.S. full market release. We are also working to bring Omnipod 5 to our international markets. We recently received CE Mark approval under the European MDR, and we are currently focused on further building our international teams and advancing our regulatory, reimbursement, and market development efforts. We plan to launch Omnipod 5 in the U.K. and Germany in 2023 and to continue our international roll out more broadly in 2024.
In 2022, we completed our Omnipod 5 type 2 diabetes feasibility study and plan to begin a pivotal trial in 2023 with the goal of expanding Omnipod 5’s indication to type 2 users. Additionally, to accelerate our efforts to secure reimbursement for Omnipod 5, we have fully enrolled individuals in a randomized control trial in the U.S. and enrollment will begin soon in France. We also continue to expand market access and awareness of Omnipod through our direct to consumer advertising programs and through growing our presence in the U.S. pharmacy channel, where access to Omnipod 5 and Omnipod DASH is simpler and affordable, as no up-front investment is required. As we continue our growth in the pharmacy channel, we plan to phase-out our Classic Omnipod in the U.S. in 2023, since the vast majority of our customer base is no longer using this product.
Additionally, we continue to increase our presence within our existing markets and expand internationally in a targeted and strategic manner. We opened an office in Dubai to serve as our primary local presence and regional infrastructure in the Middle East, launched Omnipod in Saudi Arabia, and expanded into the United Arab Emirates.
We have also been taking steps to continue strengthening our global manufacturing capabilities. We are optimizing our operations in China by consolidating our production in that region into one location. Further, in 2022 we broke ground on a new manufacturing plant in Malaysia to support our international expansion strategy, further ensure product supply, and drive higher gross margins over time. We expect to begin production at this new manufacturing facility in 2024.
Finally, we continue to focus on our product development efforts, including AID offerings, such as choice of continuous glucose monitor and smartphone integration, and enhancing the customer experience through digital product and data capabilities. We have also developed a basal-only Pod for individuals with type 2 diabetes and submitted our 510(k) application to the FDA in November. We expect commercialization of the basal-only Pod in 2024.

Results of Operations
The discussion of our results of operations for 2020 has been omitted from this Form 10-K but can be found in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2022.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pods are intended to be used continuously for up to three days and then be replaced with a new disposable Pod. We recently achieved a milestone of 360,000 estimated global customers using Omnipod, including over 100,000 U.S. customers using the Omnipod 5. As we grow our customer base, we expect to generate an increasing portion of our revenues through recurring sales of our disposable Pods, which provides recurring revenue. Our recurring revenue business model, alongside the Omnipod System’s unique patented design enables us to provide pump therapy at a low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows for it. Our pay-as-you-go pricing model also reduces the risk to third-party payors.
During 2022, we issued two voluntary MDCs, one in October for our Omnipod DASH PDM related to its battery and the other in November for our Omnipod 5 Controller related to the charging port and cable. In addition to the estimated liability we recorded in 2022, we have a performance obligation to replace Omnipod DASH PDMs and Omnipod 5 Controllers sold subsequent to the MDC issuances, which is expected to negatively impact gross margins and net income in 2023, most notably in the first half of the year.
We have also experienced and expect to continue to experience challenges stemming from the global supply chain disruption that began during the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”); however, to date we have been able to successfully mitigate this disruption and ensure uninterrupted supply to our customers by increasing our inventory levels and taking other measures. While our mitigation efforts and inflation have and are expected to continue to negatively impact gross margins and net income in 2023, we intend to continue to work to improve productivity to help offset these costs.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue for 2022 increased $206.5 million, or 18.8%, to $1,305.3 million, compared with $1,098.8 million in 2021. Constant currency revenue growth of 22.2% was primarily driven by higher volume and, to a lesser extent, favorable sales channel mix.
U.S. Omnipod
U.S. Omnipod revenue for 2022 increased $233.3 million, or 35.8%, to $884.8 million, compared with $651.5 million in 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher Omnipod 5 and Omnipod DASH volumes driven by growing our customer base and, to a lesser extent, growth through the pharmacy channel, where Pods have a higher average selling price due in part to the fact that we offer the PDM/Controller for no charge. Existing customer conversions to Omnipod 5 also contributed to the revenue increase as some users fill both their starter kit and their first month of refills simultaneously.
U.S. Omnipod revenue for 2022 includes $249.9 million of related party revenue, compared with $58.2 million in 2021. The $191.7 million increase primarily resulted from a shift in certain revenues from one distributor to another as we worked to extend our reach through the pharmacy channel. Additional information regarding our related party transactions is provided in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements.
In 2023, we expect strong Omnipod revenue growth driven by continued volume growth of Omnipod 5 in the pharmacy channel, continued adoption of Omnipod DASH, and the benefits of our recurring revenue model.

International Omnipod
International Omnipod revenue for 2022 increased $3.1 million, or 0.9%, to $363.0 million, compared with $359.9 million in 2021. Excluding the 11.2% unfavorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 12.1% increase was primarily due to higher volumes as we continue to expand awareness and access to Omnipod DASH, partially offset by increased competition from AID systems. In 2023, we expect higher International Omnipod revenue due to continued volume growth driven by the ongoing adoption of Omnipod DASH, partially offset by competition from AID systems and an unfavorable impact of currency exchange.
Drug Delivery
Drug Delivery revenue for 2022 decreased $29.9 million, or 34.2%, to $57.5 million, compared with $87.4 million in 2021. This decrease was primarily driven by a decline in production volume due to lower demand from our partner. In 2023, we expect Drug Delivery revenue to decline due to a lower demand forecast from our partner.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for 2022 increased $153.0 million, or 44.1%, to $499.7 million, compared with $346.7 million in 2021. Gross margin was 61.7% in 2022, compared with 68.4% in 2021. The 6.7 point decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by a $57.9 million net charge, or 4.5 points, associated with the voluntary MDCs we issued in 2022. The decrease was also driven by higher expected production costs in the U.S. as manufacturing continues to ramp and become a larger portion of our total production and higher costs associated with Omnipod 5 production. These decreases were partially offset by higher average selling price due to growth in the pharmacy channel, where Pods have a higher average selling price due in part to the fact that we offer the PDM/Controller for no charge.
We expect gross margin for 2023 to be in the range of 65% to 66%. We anticipate gross margin to increase due to significant costs associated with the MDCs in 2022, most of which we do not expect to recur in 2023 and higher volume in the pharmacy channel and favorable geographical sales mix. We believe these increases will be partially offset by continued higher production costs as we further scale U.S. manufacturing, unfavorable product line mix due to higher costs associated with Omnipod 5 production, and higher costs as we contend with inflation.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses for 2022 increased $20.1 million, or 12.6%, to $180.2 million, compared with $160.1 million in 2021. This increase was primarily due to year-over-year headcount additions to support our continued investment in development of Omnipod products, partially offset by lower outside services used for clinical activities. We expect research and development spending in 2023 to increase compared with 2022 as we continue to invest in advancing our innovation and clinical pipeline and contend with inflation.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2022 increased $121.8 million, or 26.1%, to $587.8 million, compared with $466.0 million in 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions, mainly to support information technology and commercial operations and $25.2 million of legal charges related to the settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit, associated legal fees, and the settlement of a contract dispute. To a lesser extent, these increases were due to an increase in investments to expand market acceptance and access to Omnipod, higher travel and entertainment expenses due to increased activity as COVID-19 restrictions have lifted, an increase in software license fees driven by investments in new systems to support our growing business and headcount additions, and higher amortization of cloud computing implementation costs. Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses include $3.4 million of costs associated with the retirement and advisory services of our former chief executive officer. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in direct-to-consumer advertising resulting from the timing of spend.
We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in 2023 compared with 2022 due to investments in our operating structure to facilitate operational efficiencies and continued growth, including customer support and a new enterprise

resource planning system. Additionally, we plan to make investments to support the Omnipod System, including market acceptance and access, and the phased launch of Omnipod 5 in our international markets.
Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net for 2022 decreased $34.5 million, or 56.4%, to $26.7 million, compared with $61.2 million in 2021. This decrease was primarily driven by the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which eliminated most of the non-cash interest expense associated with our convertible notes. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Standard in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
During 2021, we incurred a $42.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the repurchase and conversion of all of our outstanding 1.375% Notes. Refer to Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net for 2022 decreased $0.8 million to $1.1 million, compared with $1.9 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase in unrealized foreign currency gains, which was partially offset by realized foreign currency losses.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $5.2 million on pre-tax income of $9.8 million for 2022 and $3.7 million on pre-tax income of $20.5 million for 2021. Our effective tax rate was 53.4% and 18.2% for 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily driven by a decrease in pre-tax income in the U.S. where we have net operating loss carryforwards to reduce taxable profits and a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 22 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on our income tax expense.
Adjusted EBITDA
The table below presents reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”):

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:
Constant currency revenue growth represents the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. We present constant currency revenue growth because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results. It is also one of the performance metrics that determines management incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and other significant transactions or events, such as legal settlements, medical device corrections, and loss on extinguishment of debt, that affect the period-to-period comparability of our operating performances, as applicable. We present Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it as a supplemental measure in assessing our operating performance, and we believe that it is helpful to investors, and other interested parties as a measure of our comparative operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used measure in determining business value and we use it internally to report results.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the above definitions may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations; accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capitalization
The following table contains several key measures to gauge our financial condition and liquidity at the end of each year:
| As of December 31, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in millions) | 2022 | 2021 | ||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 674.7 | $ | 791.6 | ||
| Current portion of long-term debt | $ | 27.5 | $ | 25.1 | ||
| Long-term debt, net | $ | 1,374.3 | $ | 1,248.8 | ||
| Total debt, net | $ | 1,401.8 | $ | 1,273.9 | ||
| Total stockholders’ equity | $ | 476.4 | $ | 556.3 | ||
| Debt-to-total capital ratio | 75 | % | 70 | % | ||
| Net debt-to-total capital ratio | 39 | % | 26 | % |
The increase in debt and the decrease in stockholders’ equity was primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Standard in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Convertible Debt
To finance our operations and global expansion, we have periodically issued convertible senior notes, which are convertible into our common stock. As of December 31, 2022, the following notes were outstanding:
| Issuance Date | Coupon | Principal Outstanding (in millions) | Due Date | Conversion Rate(1) | Conversion Price per Share of Common Stock | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| September 2019 | 0.375% | $ | 800.0 | September 2026 | 4.4105 | $226.73 |
(1) Per $1,000 face value of notes.
In connection with the issuance of the 0.375% Convertible Senior Notes (“0.375% Notes”), we purchased capped call options (“Capped Calls”) on our common stock. By entering into the Capped Calls, we expect to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock (or, in the event the conversion is settled in cash, to provide a source of cash to settle a portion of our cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion our stock price exceeds the conversion price under the 0.375% Notes. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $335.90 per share and cover 3.5 million shares of our common stock.
Credit Agreement
We have a $100 million three-year senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”), which expires in 2024. At December 31, 2022, no amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to maintain a specified leverage ratio under certain conditions when there are amounts outstanding under the facility.

It also contains other customary covenants, none of which are considered restrictive to our operations. Additionally, we have a seven year term loan, which matures in 2028, that contains covenants restricting or limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make asset dispositions, create or permit liens, sell, transfer or exchange assets, guarantee certain indebtedness, and make acquisitions and other investments. Additional information regarding our debt is provided in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our current liquidity will be sufficient to meet our projected operating, investing, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $119.0 million in 2022 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $2.5 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $36.8 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $51.8 million increase in accounts receivable, and a $49.1 million increase in inventories, partially offset by a $137.6 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in cloud computing implementation costs. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in sales in the U.S. pharmacy channel, which has longer payment terms, partially offset by a decrease in unbilled accounts receivable related to lower production volumes of our Drug Delivery product. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build to satisfy demand. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by the voluntary MDCs issued for our Omnipod DASH PDMs and Omnipod 5 Controllers, an increase in rebates due to growth in the pharmacy channel and an increase in compensation costs due to higher incentive compensation achievement and head count additions.
Net cash used in operating activities of $68.1 million in 2021 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest, and stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $263.6 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $154.4 million increase in inventories, a $71.3 million increase in accounts receivable and a $46.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $24.4 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build to satisfy demand and the addition of our third highly automated manufacturing line. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in sales in the U,S. pharmacy channel, which has longer payment terms. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in cloud computing implementation costs. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by an increase in rebates due to growth in the pharmacy channel and higher compensation costs due to an increase in both incentive compensation achievement and head count.
Investing Activities
We had $191.1 million of net cash used in investing activities in 2022, compared with $82.7 million in 2021.
Capital Spending—Capital expenditures were $122.9 million and $111.9 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively, and primarily related to the purchase of equipment to increase our manufacturing capacity. We expect capital expenditures for 2023 to decrease compared with 2022 given our significant investments to build capacity in 2022, including acceleration of some of our spending on machinery and equipment for our new Malaysia manufacturing facility that is under construction. We expect to fund our capital expenditures using existing cash.
Investments in Developed Software—Investments in developed software were $12.9 million and $10.8 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively, and primarily related to investments in projects to support our cloud-based capabilities.

Acquisitions and Investments—In 2022, we paid $26.0 million to acquire substantially all the assets related to the manufacture and production of shape-memory alloy wire assemblies that are used in the production of Omnipods from Dynalloy, Inc. and $21.5 million to acquire developed technology and patents from AGC. In addition we paid $7.8 million for strategic investments in two private companies.
Sales of Marketable Securities—The $40.0 million decrease in cash receipts from maturities of marketable securities in 2021 was driven by the prior year shift of a portion of our investment portfolio to investments that are classified as cash equivalents.
Financing Activities
We had $40.3 million of net cash used in financing activities in 2022, compared with $40.7 million of net cash provided by financing activities in 2021.
Debt Issuance and Repayment—During 2022, we made $24.5 million in aggregate principal payments on our equipment financings, mortgage, and term loan, compared with $22.3 million in 2021. The $2.2 million increase is due to entering the term loan and an additional equipment financing in the second and third quarters of 2021, respectively. During 2021, we received net proceeds of $489.5 million from the issuance of the term loan and used $460.9 million of cash to partially fund the repurchase of a portion of our 1.375% Notes. We also received net proceeds of $43.1 million from the equipment financing transaction entered into in 2021.
Prepayments of Finance Lease Obligation—During 2022, we made $15.3 million in upfront payments upon entering into an agreement to acquire real estate in Malaysia. Refer to Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this lease.
Option Exercises and Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proceeds—Total proceeds from option exercises and issuance of employee stock purchase plan shares were $16.3 million and $23.5 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. The $7.2 million decrease was primarily driven by option exercises in the prior year by our former chief executive officer who retired in 2018.
Payment of Taxes for Restricted Stock Net Settlements—Payments for taxes related to net restricted and performance stock unit settlements were $16.8 million and $28.2 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. The $11.4 million decrease was primarily driven by vesting of performance stock units in the prior year by our former chief executive officer who retired in 2018.
Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations—A summary of our contractual obligations and commitments for debt, operating lease obligations and other obligations at December 31, 2022 is presented in the following table:

(1)Interest on debt and lease obligations are projected for future periods using the interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2022. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in market interest rates. Additional information regarding our leases is provided in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.
(2)Excludes the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements.
(3)Purchase obligations include commitments for the purchase of Omnipod System components, commitments related to establishing additional manufacturing capabilities, and other commitments for purchases of goods or services in the normal course of business. These commitments are derived from purchase orders, supplier contracts and open orders based on projected demand information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2022, we had various letters of credit totaling $18.6 million. During 2022, the Company entered into a $20 million uncommitted letter of credit facility. In conjunction with the execution of an agreement to acquire real estate in Malaysia, including land and building, a letter of credit of $17.2 million was issued under this facility to backstop a bank guarantee for the same amount. The bank guarantee serves as security for the building while under construction. Additional information regarding our letters of credit is provided in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The following accounting policies are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of the promised products in an amount that reflects the net consideration to which we expect to be entitled. We sell products both through distributors, who resell the products to consumers, and directly to consumers. Transaction price is typically based on contracted rates less any estimates of claim denials and historical reimbursement experience, guidelines and payor mix, and less estimated variable consideration adjustments, including rebates. Recognizing revenue requires us to exercise judgment and use estimates that can have a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue we report. We exercise significant judgment when we determine variable consideration adjustments. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price is included in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. We estimate reductions to our revenues for rebates paid to distributors in the United States and Canada and pharmacy benefit managers (“PBM”) in the United States. Rebates are based on contractual arrangements, which may vary. Our estimates are based on products sold, historical experience, trends, specific known market events and, as available, channel inventory data. Rebates charged against gross sales amounted to $247.1 million, $143.3 million and $82.5 million in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Provisions for rebates, sales discounts, and returns are accounted for as a reduction of sales when revenue is recognized and are included within accounts receivable trade or accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, based upon the recipient of the rebate. If the actual amounts of consideration that we receive differ from our estimates, we adjust our estimates, which affects reported revenue in the period that such variances become known.
Our Drug Delivery product line includes sales of a modified version of the Omnipod to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies who use our technology as a delivery method for their drugs. Revenue from the Drug Delivery product was $57.5 million for 2022. Revenue for this product line is recognized as the product is produced. Accounting for Drug Delivery revenue requires us to select a method to measure progress towards the satisfaction of the performance obligation. This election of the most meaningful measure of progress by which to recognize Drug Delivery revenue requires the application of judgment. We elected the input method and selected a blend of cost and time to produce as the measure of progress. Accordingly, revenue is recognized over time using a blend of costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion and time incurred to date relative to total production time to measure progress toward the satisfaction of our performance obligations. We believe that both incurred cost and elapsed time reflect the value generated, which best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include third-party costs as well as an allocation of manufacturing overhead. Changes from quarter to quarter in quantity and stage of production of in-process inventory could have a significant quarterly impact on revenue.
Product Warranty
We provide a four-year warranty on our PDMs and Controllers sold in the United States and Europe and a five-year warranty on PDMs sold in Canada. In addition, we may replace Pods that do not function in accordance with product specifications. We estimate our warranty obligation at the time the product is shipped based on historical experience and the estimated cost to service the claims, which include the current product cost, reclaim costs, shipping and handling costs and direct and incremental distribution and customer service support costs. Since we continue to introduce new products and versions, the anticipated performance of the product over the warranty period is also considered in estimating warranty reserves. Changes to the actual replacement rates, which are evaluated quarterly, could have a material impact on our estimated warranty reserve.
In 2022, we issued voluntary MDCs for the Omnipod DASH PDM and the Omnipod 5 Controller and accrued an associated warranty reserve of $68.9 million, which was subsequently reduced by $11.0 million primarily due to significantly fewer customers requesting a replacement Omnipod DASH PDM prior to our updated PDM being available. The remaining $54.6 million warranty reserve at December 31, 2022 includes an estimate regarding the number of:
•customers expected to request a replacement Omnipod 5 Controller;
•PDMs/Controllers that will be distributed by third parties and the cost of distribution assistance outside the U.S.;
•additional customer support personnel, their cost and the length of time they will be needed; and
•old PDMs expected to be returned for disposal and the cost of reclaim
Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on our estimated warranty reserve related to the MDCs.

Intangible Assets
Certain of our intangible assets have been acquired through business combinations or asset purchases that include multiple components, both of which have required us to perform valuations. Our valuations involve assumptions, including, revenue and/or revenue growth rates associated with acquired assets, customer attrition rates, discount rate rates, royalty rates, tax rates, expected product development plans, product lifecycles, and obsolescence.
In 2022, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to which we made a one-time payment of $25.0 million for the acquisition of technology and patents and the release of future obligations to AGC, including any future royalty obligations. This amount, together with transaction costs, was allocated between the assets acquired and the settlement component based on estimated relative fair value. The valuation of these intangible assets included assumptions based on future revenues, royalty rates, and obsolescence curves related to our Omnipod 5 product. In addition, since certain of the intangible assets were classified as defensive assets, the valuation included an assumption related to the probability that a claim made by Insulet would be successful. As a result of the relative fair value allocation, values of $12.0 million and $9.5 million were assigned to acquired technology and patents, respectively, and the settlement component was estimated to have a value of $3.6 million. Changes in these assumptions could impact the values assigned to the intangible assets acquired and, accordingly have a material impact on the amount attributed to the settlement component in our results of operations.
Inventory Reserves
We reduce the carrying value of inventories for items that are potentially excess, obsolete, or slow-moving based on changes in customer demand, technology developments, or other economic factors in order to state inventories at net realizable value. Factors influencing these adjustments include inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. During 2022, we charged $8.4 million to the consolidated statement of operations for excess and obsolete inventory, including $4.8 million related to the phase-out of Classic Omnipod. The determination of this charge involved assumptions regarding the number of PDMs expected to be utilized to satisfy warranty claims during the phase-out period and the length of time we will continue to offer Classic Omnipod outside the United States.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this annual report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs, which are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of our proprietary Omnipod System, a continuous insulin delivery system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. The Omnipod System features a small, lightweight, self-adhesive disposable tubeless Omnipod device that is worn on the body for up to three days at a time; and its wireless companion, the handheld PDM/Controller. The Omnipod System, which features discreet and easy-to-use devices, communicates wirelessly, provides for virtually pain-free automated cannula insertion and eliminates the need for MDI therapy or the use of pump and tubing. We believe that the Omnipod System’s unique proprietary design and features allow people with insulin-dependent diabetes to manage their diabetes with unprecedented freedom, comfort, convenience and ease.
In addition to the diabetes market space, we have partnered with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to tailor the Omnipod System technology platform for the delivery of subcutaneous drugs across other therapeutic areas. Most of our drug delivery revenue currently consists of sales of pods to Amgen for use in the Neulasta® Onpro® kit, a delivery system for Amgen’s Neulasta to help reduce the risk of infection after intense chemotherapy.
Our mission is to improve the lives of people with diabetes. To assist in achieving this mission, we are focused on the following key strategic imperatives:
•expanding access and awareness;
•delivering consumer-focused innovation;
•growing our global addressable market; and
•driving operational excellence.
Our long-term financial objective is to sustain profitable growth. To achieve this goal, our efforts have been focused on the launch of Omnipod 5, which recently received FDA clearance for individuals aged six years and older with type 1 diabetes. Our limited market release of Omnipod 5 is underway. Additionally, we have completed our FDA submission to expand Omnipod 5’s indication down to age two, and are planning for an expanded indication in 2022. We have also recently completed our type 2 feasibility study and plan to conduct additional studies with the goal to further expand Omnipod 5’s indication to type 2 users. In our efforts to bring Omnipod 5 to international markets, we have submitted for CE Marking in Europe under MDR.
In order to support our continued growth and the full commercial launch of Omnipod 5, we continue to focus on adding capacity to our U.S. manufacturing plant. During 2021, we began producing salable product on our third highly automated manufacturing line. We have also taken steps to strengthen our global manufacturing capabilities. We have optimized our operations in China by consolidating our production in that region into one location and we plan to invest in a new manufacturing plant in another international location to further diversify globally and increase efficiency to drive higher gross margins over time.
In 2021, we completed our full commercial launch of Omnipod DASH, our digital mobile Omnipod platform, in the countries we serve with our roll out in Canada. Over the long term, we expect the introduction of Omnipod DASH throughout our international markets to be a growth driver as we increase our presence within our existing markets and enter into new countries.
We are continuing to expand internationally in a targeted and strategic manner. During 2021, we increased our global footprint by expanding into Turkey and entered the Asia Pacific region with our launch in Australia. In 2022. we expect to enter additional countries in the Middle East. Further, we are working to bring Omnipod 5 to our international markets.
Finally, we plan to continue to expand awareness of and access to our products, while also focusing on our product development efforts. The latter includes enhancing the customer experience through digital product offerings. Achieving the above strategic imperatives is expected to require additional investments in certain initiatives and personnel, as well as enhancements to our supply chain operation capacity, efficiency and effectiveness.

Results of Operations
The discussion of our results of operations for 2019 has been omitted from this Form 10-K but can be found in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2021.
Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our Pods are intended to be used continuously for up to three days and then be replaced with a new disposable Pod. We recently achieved a milestone of approximately 300,000 global customers using Omnipod. As we grow our customer base, we generate an increasing portion of our revenue through recurring sales of our Pods, which provides consistent cash flow. Our recurring revenue business model, alongside the Omnipod System’s unique patented design enables us to provide pump therapy at a low or no up-front investment in regions where reimbursement allows for it. Our pay-as-you-go pricing model also reduces the risk to third-party payors.
During 2020 and 2021, we were subject to challenging conditions stemming from the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19” or the “pandemic”). Containment efforts and responses to the pandemic have varied by individuals, businesses, state and local municipalities, and region. We believe people were less likely to change the way they manage their diabetes during the pandemic for a variety of reasons including temporary closure of doctors’ offices or a general unwillingness to visit a doctor’s office or hospital during the pandemic, particularly since those with diabetes are deemed at higher risk of suffering complications from COVID-19. While the pandemic had a negative impact on new customer starts and the effects will not be fully reflected in our results of operations and overall financial performance until future periods, we believe our overall recurring revenue model provides a solid financial foundation for strong cash flow generation. Further, the pandemic had a positive impact on our Drug Delivery revenue.
We have also experienced and may continue to experience challenges stemming from the global supply chain disruption; however, to date we have been able to successfully mitigate any disruption. See “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report for further discussion of the possible impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

(1) Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. See “Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Total revenue for 2021 increased $194.4 million, or 21.5%, to $1,098.8 million, compared with $904.4 million in 2020. Constant currency revenue growth of 19.7% was primarily driven by higher volume and, to a lesser extent, favorable sales channel mix. This increase was partially offset by the normalization of inventory levels at distributors, which were elevated in the prior year due to the launch of Omnipod DASH.
U.S. Omnipod
U.S. Omnipod revenue for 2021 increased $124.6 million, or 23.6%, to $651.5 million, compared with $526.9 million in 2020. This increase was primarily due to higher volumes driven by growing our customer base and, to a lesser extent, an increase due to growth through the pharmacy channel, where Pods have a higher average selling price from our pay-as-you-go pricing model in which we offer the PDM for no charge. This increase was partially offset by the impact of the pandemic on our recurring revenue. U.S. Omnipod revenue for 2021 includes $58.2 million of related party revenue that resulted from a shift in certain revenues from one distributor to another. Additional information regarding our related party transactions is provided in Note 5. In 2022, we expect strong Omnipod revenue growth driven by continued volume growth of Omnipod DASH, primarily in the pharmacy channel.
International Omnipod
International Omnipod revenue for 2021 increased $51.9 million, or 16.9%, to $359.9 million, compared with $308.0 million in 2020. Excluding the 5.3% favorable impact of currency exchange, the remaining 11.6% increase was primarily due to higher volumes as we continue to expand awareness and access to the Omnipod, partially offset by the normalization of inventory

levels at distributors, which were elevated in the prior year due to the launch of Omnipod DASH and the impact of the pandemic on our recurring revenue. In 2022, we expect higher International Omnipod revenue due to continued volume growth and market penetration aided by the ongoing adoption of Omnipod DASH throughout our international markets. We expect this revenue growth to be partially offset by competition from AID systems and the impact of the pandemic on our recurring revenue.
Drug Delivery
Drug Delivery revenue for 2021 increased $17.9 million, or 25.8%, to $87.4 million, compared with $69.5 million in 2020. This increase was primarily driven by increased production volume due to higher demand from our partner. In 2022, we expect Drug Delivery revenue to decline as production levels that were elevated during the pandemic normalize.

Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for 2021 increased $24.6 million, or 7.6%, to $346.7 million, compared with $322.1 million in 2020. Gross margin was 68.4% in 2021, compared with 64.4% in 2020. The 400 basis point increase in gross margin was primarily driven by improved manufacturing efficiencies, higher average selling price due to growth in the pharmacy channel and a decrease in COVID-19 related costs, as the prior year included a period expense for two months of depreciation for under-utilized plant capacity, recruiting and screening expenses, expedited shipping costs and manufacturing incentives totaling $8.5 million, primarily associated with our contract manufacturer in Shenzhen, China. These increases were partially offset by higher production costs as we continue to scale U.S manufacturing.
We expect gross margin for 2022 to be in the range of 67% to 68%. We anticipate gross margin will be negatively impacted by unfavorable product mix, higher costs associated with Omnipod 5 production, and continued higher production costs as we further scale U.S. manufacturing, and contend with inflation and global supply chain disruptions. We believe these higher costs will be partially offset by the benefits of continued improvements in global manufacturing and supply chain operations and increased volumes in the pharmacy channel.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses for 2021 increased $13.3 million, or 9.1%, to $160.1 million, compared with $146.8 million in 2020. This increase was primarily due to year-over-year headcount additions to support our continued investment in development of Omnipod products. We expect research and development spending in 2022 to increase compared with 2021 as we continue to invest in advancing our innovation and clinical pipeline and contend with inflation.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses for 2021 increased $82.0 million, or 21.4%, to $466.0 million, compared with $384.0 million in 2020. This increase was primarily attributable to year-over-year headcount additions, mainly to support international expansion, information technology, sales and commercial operations, a $14.1 million increase in advertising expense driven by our direct-to-consumer advertising campaign and online advertising, as well as a shift in resources and certain costs from our Omnipod 5 clinical efforts to our commercial strategy. These increases were partially offset by $14.6 million of cumulative amortization expense in the prior year related to the resolution of a purchase price contingency associated with the acquisition of customer relationships from a former European distributor in 2018, and $4.8 million of stock-based compensation expense in the prior year resulting from a company-wide 20th anniversary equity grant to non-executives, a significant portion of which vested immediately. We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in 2022 compared with 2021 due to expansion of our sales force and customer support personnel, investments to expand market acceptance and access for the Omnipod System, including direct-to-consumer advertising, and investments in our operating structure to facilitate operational efficiencies and continued growth.

Non-Operating Items
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net for 2021 increased $16.1 million, or 35.7%, to $61.2 million, compared with $45.1 million in 2020. This increase was primarily driven by cash interest expense associated with the Term Loan entered into in May 2021. As discussed under “Accounting Standards Issued and Not Yet Adopted as of December 31, 2021,” in January 2022, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which eliminated most of the non-cash interest expense associated with our convertible notes. Accordingly, we expect net interest expense to decrease approximately $30 million in 2022 compared with 2021.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
During 2021, we incurred a $42.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the repurchase and conversion of all of our outstanding 1.375% Notes. Refer to Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Other (Expense) Income, Net
During 2021, we had other expense, net of $1.9 million, compared with other income, net of $3.3 million in 2020. The $5.2 million decrease was primarily driven by unrealized foreign currency losses due to the change in exchange rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $3.7 million on pre-tax income of $20.5 million for 2021 and $2.9 million on pre-tax income of $9.7 million for 2020. Our effective tax rate was 18.2% and 29.6% for 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income in the U.S. where we have net operating loss carryforwards to reduce taxable profits and a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.
Additionally, we have not recorded tax benefits for current year losses in the United Kingdom due to valuation allowance requirements following a transfer of intellectual property that occurred during 2021. See Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on our income tax expense.
Adjusted EBITDA
The table below presents reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”):

(1) The year ended December 31, 2020 includes $14.6 million of cumulative amortization expense associated with customer relationships that were acquired in 2018. For more information see Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements.
(2) The year ended December 31, 2020 includes $7.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to a company-wide 20th anniversary equity grant (excluding executives), a significant portion of which immediately vested.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses the following non-GAAP financial measures:
Constant currency revenue growth represents the change in revenue between current and prior year periods using the exchange rate in effect during the applicable prior year period. We present constant currency revenue growth because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results. It is also one of the performance metrics that determines management incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus net interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and other significant unusual items, as applicable. We present Adjusted EBITDA because management uses it as a supplemental measure in assessing our operating performance, and we believe that it is helpful
36
Table of Contents
to investors, and other interested parties as a measure of our comparative operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used measure in determining business value and we use it internally to report results.
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the above definitions may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations; accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2021, we had $791.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, we have a $60 million three year senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”), which expires in 2024. At December 31, 2021, no amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains a covenant to maintain a specified leverage ratio under certain conditions when there are amounts outstanding under the facility. It also contains other customary covenants, none of which are considered restrictive to our operations. We believe that our current liquidity will be sufficient to meet our projected operating, investing and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Debt
To finance our operations and global expansion, we have periodically issued convertible senior notes, which are convertible into our common stock. As of December 31, 2021, the following notes were outstanding:
| Issuance Date | Coupon | Principal Outstanding (in millions) | Due Date | Conversion Rate(1) | Conversion Price per Share of Common Stock | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| September 2019 | 0.375% | 800.0 | September 2026 | 4.4105 | $226.73 |
(1) Per $1,000 face value of notes.
In connection with the issuance of the 0.375% Convertible Senior Notes (“0.375% Notes”), we purchased capped call options (“Capped Calls”) on our common stock. By entering into the Capped Calls, we expect to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock (or, in the event the conversion is settled in cash, to provide a source of cash to settle a portion of our cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion our stock price exceeds the conversion price under the 0.375% Notes. The Capped Calls have an initial strike price of $335.90 per share and cover 3.5 million shares of our common stock.
During 2021, we obtained a $500 million seven year Term Loan for net proceeds of $489.5 million, which we used to fund the cash portion of the repurchase of our 1.375% Convertible Senior Notes due November 2024 (“1.375% Notes”). The Term Loan contains covenants restricting or limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make asset dispositions, create or permit liens, sell, transfer or exchange assets, guarantee certain indebtedness, and make acquisitions and other investments. Additional information regarding our debt is provided in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities of $68.1 million in 2021 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest, and stock-based compensation, partially offset by a $263.6 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $154.4 million increase in inventories, a $71.3 million increase in accounts receivable and a $46.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $24.4 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build to satisfy demand and the addition of our third highly automated manufacturing line. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in U.S. pharmacy channel, which has longer payment terms. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in cloud computing implementation

costs. Finally, the increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities was primarily driven by an increase in rebates due to growth in the pharmacy channel and higher compensation costs due to head count additions.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $84.0 million in 2020 was primarily attributable to net income, as adjusted for depreciation and amortization, non-cash interest, and stock-based compensation, partially offset by a $63.4 million working capital cash outflow. The working capital outflow was driven by a $50.5 million increase in inventories and a $34.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by a $27.8 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The increase in inventories was primarily driven by a planned inventory build associated with the further roll out of Omnipod DASH and an increase in work in progress inventory due to additional capacity from our new contract manufacturer. The increase in prepaid expenses and other assets was primarily driven by an increase in software licenses due to head count additions, and an increase in software-as-a-service to support our strategic initiatives. The increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, primarily driven by manufacturing operations costs associated with the addition of our contract manufacturer in Kunshan (Shanghai), China, as well as an increase in pharmacy rebates due to the growth in the pharmacy channel.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $82.7 million in 2021, compared with net cash provided by investing activities of $14.0 million in 2020.
Capital Spending—Capital expenditures were $111.9 million and $129.0 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively, and primarily related to the purchase of equipment to increase our manufacturing capacity. We expect capital expenditures for 2022 to increase compared with 2021 as we continue to invest in manufacturing capabilities to support our growth and new product launches. We expect to fund our capital expenditures using existing cash.
Purchases and Sales of Investments—Proceeds from maturities of marketable securities were $40.0 million in 2021, compared with net proceeds from maturities of $180.5 million for 2020. The $140.5 million decrease was driven by the prior year shift of a portion of our investment portfolio to investments that are classified as cash equivalents.
Acquisition of Intangible Assets—In 2020, following the resolution of a purchase price contingency associated with our 2018 acquisition of customer relationships from a former European distributor, we paid the distributor an additional $36.2 million for a total purchase price of $41.2 million. We had previously paid the distributor $3.8 million in 2019 and the remainder in 2018.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $40.7 million in 2021, compared with $605.5 million in 2020.
Debt Issuance and Repayment—During 2021, we received net proceeds of $489.5 million from the issuance of the Term Loan and used $460.9 million of the proceeds to partially fund the cash portion of the repurchase of a portion of our 1.375% Notes. In addition, we received net proceeds of $43.1 million from an equipment financing transaction and made $22.3 million in debt principal payments, which primarily related to our equipment financings.
In 2020, we received net proceeds of $68.3 million upon entering into a mortgage of our Acton facility. Additionally, we received net proceeds of $60.0 million upon entering into two equipment financing transactions.
Issuance of Common Stock—In 2020, we sold 2.4 million common shares for $478.7 million in an underwritten registered offering. Net proceeds from the offering were $477.5 million. The proceeds provided us with additional liquidity to mitigate risk and allowed us to continue investing in the growth of our business and our strategic initiatives.
Option Exercises and Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proceeds—Total proceeds from option exercises was $15.4 million and $25.7 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The $10.3 million decrease was primarily driven by fewer option exercises by our former chief executive officer. Total proceeds from issuance of employee stock purchases was $8.1 million and $6.0 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The $2.1 million increase was primarily driven by growth in plan participation.
Payment of Taxes for Restricted Stock Net Settlements—Payments for taxes related to net restricted and performance stock unit settlements were $28.2 million and $29.8 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in payments for taxes related to restricted stock net settlements was driven by a decrease in vesting of restricted shares in 2021, compared with 2020 driven by the immediate vesting of a significant portion of a company-wide 20th anniversary equity grant in the prior year.
Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations—A summary of our contractual obligations and commitments for debt, operating lease obligations and other obligations at December 31, 2021 is presented in the following table:

(1)Interest on debt and lease obligations are projected for future periods using the interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2021. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in market interest rates.
(2)Excludes the impact of the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements.
(3)Purchase obligations include commitments for the purchase of Omnipod System components, commitments related to establishing additional manufacturing capabilities and other commitments for purchases of goods or services in the normal course of business. These commitments are derived from purchase orders, supplier contracts and open orders based on projected demand information.
Legal Proceedings—Roche Diabetes Care, Inc. (“Roche”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against us and is seeking monetary damages and attorneys’ fees and costs. Since the patent expired in 2019, Roche is not seeking injunctive relief and the lawsuit will have no impact on ongoing sales of our products. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to Roche’s claims and intend to vigorously defend against them. At this time, based on available information regarding this litigation, we are unable to reasonably assess the ultimate outcome of this case or determine an estimate, or range of estimates, of potential losses, which could be material; accordingly, we have excluded this exposure from the contractual obligations table above. Refer to Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this matter.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The following accounting policies are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of the promised products in an amount that reflects the net consideration to which we expect to be entitled. We sell products both direct to consumers and through distributors who resell the products to consumers. Transaction price is typically based on contracted rates less any estimates of claim denials and historical reimbursement experience, guidelines and payor mix, and less estimated variable consideration adjustments including rebates. Recognizing revenue requires us to exercise judgment and use estimates that can have a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue we report. We exercise significant judgment when we determine variable consideration adjustments. The amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price is included in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in a future period. We estimate reductions to our revenues for rebates paid to distributors in the United States and Canada and pharmacy benefit managers (“PBM”) in the United States. Rebates are based on contractual arrangements, which may vary. Our estimates are based on products sold, historical experience, trends, specific known market events and, as available, channel inventory data. Rebates charged against gross sales amounted to $143.3 million, $82.5 million and $59.1 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Provisions for rebates, sales discounts and returns, are accounted for as a reduction of sales when revenue is recognized and are included within accounts receivable trade or accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, based upon the recipient of the rebate. If the actual amounts of consideration that we receive differ from our estimates, we would adjust our estimates and that would affect reported revenue in the period that such variances become known.
Our drug delivery product line includes sales of a modified version of the Omnipod to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies who use our technology as a delivery method for their drugs. Revenue from the drug delivery product was $87.4 million for 2021. Revenue for this product line is recognized as the product is produced. Accounting for drug delivery revenue requires us to select a method to measure progress towards the satisfaction of the performance obligation. This election of the most meaningful measure of progress by which to recognize drug delivery revenue requires the application of judgment. We elected the input method and selected a blend of cost and time to produce as the measure of progress. Accordingly, revenue is recognized over time using a blend of costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion and time incurred to date relative to total production time to measure progress toward the satisfaction of our performance obligations. We believe
39
Table of Contents
that both incurred cost and elapsed time reflect the value generated, which best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include third-party costs as well as an allocation of manufacturing overhead. Changes from quarter to quarter in quantity and stage of production of in-process inventory could have a significant quarterly impact on revenue.
Contingencies
We are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business as further discussed in Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements, including a patent infringement case with Roche. Accruals recorded and related disclosures are based on judgment, both regarding the probability of losses and range of loss, and, where applicable, include the consideration of opinions of internal and/or external legal counsel. When a range is established but a best estimate cannot be made, we record the minimum loss contingency amount, which could be zero. An estimate is often initially developed substantially earlier than the ultimate loss is known and is reevaluated each accounting period. As information becomes known, additional loss provision is recorded when either a best estimate can be made, or the minimum loss amount is increased. When events result in an expectation of a more favorable outcome than previously expected, our best estimate is changed to a lower amount. We record receivables from third-party insurers up to the amount of the related liability when we have determined that existing insurance policies will provide reimbursement. In making this determination, we consider applicable deductibles, policy limits and the historical payment experience of the insurance carriers.
Accounting Standards Issued and Not Yet Adopted as of December 31, 2021
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models. Under ASU 2020-06, a convertible debt instrument will generally be reported as a single liability at its amortized cost with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Consequently, the effective interest rate of convertible debt instruments will be closer to the coupon interest rate. In addition, ASU 2020-06 eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Adoption of ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2022, resulted in a $213 million decrease in additional paid in capital from the derecognition of the bifurcated equity component, a $151 million increase in debt from the derecognition of the discount associated with the bifurcated equity component and a $62 million decrease to the opening balance of accumulated deficit, representing the cumulative interest expense recognized related to the amortization of the bifurcated conversion option. Additionally, we expect to write-off the related deferred tax liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the valuation allowance, resulting in no net impact to the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. Adoption of this standard will have no impact on our diluted earnings per share as we calculate earnings per share using the if-converted method.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We generally identify forward looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words.
