Omnicell Q1 2026 Earnings Call - Transition to Titan XT and OmniSphere Drives Margin Expansion

Summary

Omnicell opened 2026 with a performance that suggests the company is successfully navigating a critical technological pivot. By beating top-end guidance across key metrics, management signaled that the transition from legacy XT systems to the next-generation Titan XT hardware and the cloud-native OmniSphere platform is gaining traction. Revenue grew 15% year-over-year to $310 million, while non-GAAP EBITDA saw a significant jump to $45 million, fueled by disciplined cost management and an improved product mix.

The narrative for the remainder of the year centers on managing the pacing of capital replacement cycles. While health systems operate on multi-year approval timelines, Omnicell is seeing increased deal sizes as customers weigh the benefits of skipping intermediate upgrades to jump straight to the Titan XT ecosystem. With a massive $2.5 billion replacement opportunity ahead and rising recurring revenue from specialty pharmacy services, the company appears to be positioning itself as an indispensable platform partner rather than a mere hardware vendor.

Key Takeaways

  • Total revenue for Q1 2026 reached $310 million, marking a 15% year-over-year increase.
  • Non-GAAP EBITDA rose significantly to $45 million from $24 million in the prior year period.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Good morning, and welcome to the Omnicell first quarter 2026 financial results conference call. On the call for Omnicell today are Randall Lipps, Omnicell Chairman, President, CEO, and Founder, Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, and myself, Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. This call will contain forward-looking statements, including statements related to financial projections or performance and market or company outlook based on current expectations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of today or the date specified on the call. Actual results and other events may differ materially from those contemplated due to numerous factors that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. For more information, please refer to our press release issued today, Omnicell’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026, and in other more recent reports filed with the SEC.

Except as required by law, we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements. During today’s call, we will discuss some non-GAAP financial measures. Full reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in each of our fourth quarter 2025 and first quarter 2026 financial results press releases. Our results were released this morning, and our financial results press releases, including these reconciliations, are posted on our investor relations section of our website at ir.omnicell.com. For our call this morning, Randall will begin with an overview of our first quarter 2026 performance and strategic priorities. I will then review our quarterly financial results and our updated outlook for 2026. We will then open the call for questions. With that, I turn the call over to Randall. Randall?

Randall Lipps, Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder, Omnicell: Thank you. Good morning, everyone. We started 2026 with solid execution in the first quarter, delivering results at the high end or above our previously issued Q1 2026 guidance ranges across all key metrics, which we believe reinforces the durability of our business model. Total revenue for the quarter was $310 million, non-GAAP EBITDA was $45 million, and non-GAAP earnings per share was $0.55. We believe these results reflect the continued momentum across our core businesses, disciplined cost management, and our ability to execute as we continue to advance toward our goal of achieving the vision of autonomous medication management. We continue to see constructive demand environment, including meaningful competitive conversion opportunities. Health systems appear to be increasingly reassessing incumbent solutions that may have struggled to deliver consistent reliability, scalable service, and enterprise-wide interoperability.

As customers prioritize these key factors along with efficiencies from improving medication workflows, particularly in environments facing ongoing staffing and cost pressures, we believe Omnicell is well positioned to serve as a long-term platform partner. As a reminder, our strategy is anchored in driving autonomous medication management as we seek to deliver improved outcomes across the patient care journey. We are operationalizing our strategy through the three tightly connected priorities. First, expanding our market presence across inpatient and outpatient pharmacies and patient care settings. Second, scaling predictable recurring revenue. Third, advancing OmniSphere, our cloud-native medication management platform. These three core priorities reinforce one another. Expanding our footprint and increasing interoperability across care settings is anticipated to increase the scale and breadth of the medication workflows we support, which should provide a broader foundation for enterprise-wide automation and standardization.

Increasing recurring revenue will give us the visibility and confidence to invest intentionally, improving products and accelerating innovation with AI. Execution on this priority is evident through our growing specialty and consumables business. Finally, OmniSphere is the unifying layer that is meant to bring our enterprise offerings together, connecting devices, data, and workflows on a single secure platform. The OmniSphere platform is designed to shift medication management from reactive manual processes toward guided and increasingly autonomous workflows. We believe OmniSphere will enable our customers to unlock clinical capacity, enhance safety and compliance, and drive more predictable operational and financial outcomes.

We’re seeing this play out in recent customer decisions as large and complex healthcare organizations increasingly select Omnicell to support medication management holistically. For example, healthcare providers within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs continue to expand their use of Omnicell solutions as they seek to support more standardized streamlined medication workflows across their organizations. These deployments span central pharmacy and point-of-care solutions, IV workflow, and inventory optimization services, reflecting what we believe is a system-level focus on reliability, efficiency, and enterprise visibility across the patient care journey. Similarly, a major academic medical center in New York recently chose to expand its Omnicell footprint across multiple facilities, extending our central pharmacy and our point-of-care solutions as they strive to enhance safety, improve operational consistency, and support enterprise-wide standardization.

A Rhode Island-based health system selected our central pharmacy dispensing services as it sought to support safety and efficiency in pharmacy operations as part of a broader effort to modernize and standardize medication management across the system. As these enterprise relationships deepen and broaden, we’re seeing a natural expansion of reoccurring revenue streams tied to the installed base, which should improve our financial visibility and support continued investment in engineering and advanced analytics to deliver the value-added products and solutions that address customer pain points. We’re also seeing strong engagement across outpatient and specialty pharmacy settings. A health system in Southern Missouri recently partnered with Omnicell Specialty Pharmacy Services as it worked to enhance clinical outcomes and improve the patient experience while supporting the growth of its specialty pharmacy program. We find this engagement reflects the same enterprise mindset.

Customers leverage Omnicell not for technology, but for the services and expertise that they are intended to extend medication management beyond the acute care settings and create more predictable recurring value over time. We’re grateful for the trust our customers are placing in us to solve their critical medication management challenges. For those new to the Omnicell story or taking a renewed interest in our product offerings, we formally introduced Omnicell Titan XT, our next generation automated dispensing system, at ASHP late last year. Titan XT is designed to combine proven and reliable automation with enterprise-level data and workflows, and is built on our high trust certified cloud platform, OmniSphere. Together, this offering is intended to deliver enterprise-wide visibility, guided workflows, and a modern infrastructure developed to support large, complex health systems.

Importantly, Titan XT represents a meaningful step as we advance toward autonomous medication management and is the first step on the journey to connect every patient care area and pharmacy location with OmniSphere. Since introducing Omnicell Titan XT, we’ve been encouraged by customer engagement and feedback. Customers are responding positively to potential opportunities for meaningful workflow efficiency improvements, including reductions in manual cart filling activity, improved visibility into inventory expirations, and time savings across nursing and pharmacy operations. Additionally, customers are embracing the backward and forward compatibility plan to be offered by Titan XT and OmniSphere as it enables them to plan and execute a migration to our next generation platform at a pace that works for them. As we’ve noted previously, health systems capital approval cycles remain multi-quarter to multi-year activities.

Announcing Titan XT in late 2025 was intentional, giving customers time to incorporate the new platform into their long-term planning. Our expectations around installed base refresh pacing are unchanged. We anticipate modest incremental Titan XT revenue in 2026, with initial hardware shipments planned to begin in the second half of the year, followed by a phased rollout of OmniSphere functionality in the first half of 2027. More broadly, customers are moving towards platform partners who can help them transform medication management end to end. The focus is on integrated standardized workflows across the full medication cycle to improve safety, efficiency, and cost. We believe this shift plays directly to our strength and supports deeper long-term partnerships. In summary, we began 2026 with solid execution, disciplined financial performance, and a clearly defined platform roadmap.

While we remain mindful of evolving macro environment uncertainty and capital spending dynamics, we are confident in the durability of our business model and the long-term opportunity ahead to modernize medication management.

Well, with that, I’ll turn it over to Baird to walk through our first quarter financial results and outlook. Baird?

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Thank you, Randall. We started 2026 with focused execution in the first quarter, delivering results at the high end or above our first quarter guidance, reinforcing our confidence in our business model as we have kicked off the transition from XT to Titan XT and OmniSphere. We believe performance in the quarter reflects solid execution across our portfolio, coupled with strong cost management and some expense shifting into the second and third quarters. Total revenue for the first quarter was $310 million, representing 15% year-over-year growth and finishing at the upper end of our previously provided guidance range. This year-over-year growth was primarily driven by steady execution within our points of care connected devices revenues, as well as continued growth in our recurring revenue streams.

As a reminder, we are expecting revenue to be more linear in absolute dollars rather than year-over-year percentage growth rates as we progress through this year. Product revenue was $175 million, up 20% year-over-year. This growth was driven by the strength in our connected devices portfolio in both North America and international markets. Service revenue was $135 million, increasing 8% year-over-year, with growth driven again by strong performance from our specialty pharmacy services. From a profitability standpoint, for the first quarter of 2026, GAAP earnings per share was $0.25 compared to a loss of $0.15 per share in the first quarter of 2025. non-GAAP earnings per share in the first quarter of 2026 was $0.55 compared to $0.26 in the prior year period.

non-GAAP EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 totaled $45 million, compared with $24 million a year ago. Our strong profitability performance in the first quarter reflects disciplined cost management and improved operating leverage. For the first quarter of 2026, non-GAAP gross margin was approximately 46% compared to 42% in the first quarter of 2025 and 44% for fiscal year 2025, driven primarily by favorable mix and execution improvements across both product and services. As a reminder, we performed the software upgrade at customer sites that provided a headwind to the first quarter of 2025 and full year 2025 gross margins. Turning to the balance sheet, cash and cash equivalents totaled $239 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $387 million a year ago.

The year-over-year change primarily reflects the repayment of $175 million of principal amount of debt that matured in September 2025, as well as the repurchase of approximately $78 million of common stock during 2025. Free cash flow was $39 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared with $10 million in the prior period and $18 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Before turning to guidance, I’d like to briefly connect our first quarter performance to the broader operating context for 2026. We exited 2025 with a healthy backlog and improved revenue linearity driven by enhanced customer scheduling and coordination. These same dynamics supported our first quarter 2026 results and are anticipated to continue to provide greater predictability as we move through 2026. We also exited 2025 with strong competitive pipeline activity, we remain positive about our competitive positioning exiting the first quarter.

The introduction of Omnicell Titan XT and the OmniSphere platform has increasingly shifted customer conversations towards enterprise-wide standardization and longer-term platform planning. While we think this reinforces the long-term opportunity ahead, it also reflects the multi-quarter to multi-year nature of health system capital approval cycles, which is an important consideration as investors think about pacing in 2026. Since the introduction of Omnicell Titan XT, we’ve had constructive conversations with many customers around Titan XT and OmniSphere. Early feedback from customers that have experienced demonstrations of our new Titan XT and OmniSphere software and workflows has been very positive. Customers are highlighting the dynamic restock capabilities with guided workflows that are designed to simplify pharmacy technician tasks and reduce time spent on cabinet restocking. Customers are also noting that streamlined medication retrieval workflows for nurses will likely reduce the time the nurse spends looking for patient meds.

That should free up more time for care at the bedside. During the first quarter of 2026, we booked our initial Titan XT orders consistent with our expectations. Turning now to our outlook for the second quarter of 2026 and fiscal year 2026. For the second quarter of 2026, we expect total revenue to be in the range of $307 million-$313 million. Within that total, product revenue is expected to be between $174 million and $177 million, and service revenue is expected to be between $133 million and $136 million. We expect second quarter 2026 non-GAAP EBITDA to be between $37 million and $42 million and non-GAAP earnings per share to be in the range of $0.40-$0.48.

This outlook reflects continued execution across the business, typical seasonal patterns within services, and our expectation that the increased revenue linearity we saw in late 2025 continues through 2026. For the full year 2026, we are maintaining our previously provided guidance for product bookings, ARR, and total revenue, while increasing our guidance ranges for non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP earnings per share. For full year 2026, we anticipate product bookings in the range of $510 million-$560 million. Given the timing of our Titan XT announcement and our customers’ multi-quarter to multi-year capital approval cycles, we continue to anticipate that the full year 2026 product bookings will be weighted toward the back half of this year.

Total revenues are expected to be $1.215 billion-$1.255 billion, with product revenue between $690 million and $710 million, and service revenue between $525 million and $545 million. Year-end 2026 annual recurring revenue, or ARR, is expected to be between $680 million-$700 million. non-GAAP EBITDA is now expected to be between $153 million and $168 million, compared to previous guidance of $145 million-$160 million. non-GAAP earnings per share are now expected to be between $1.80 and $2.00, compared to $1.65-$1.85 previously.

This guidance includes our updated estimate of approximately $12 million of tariff-related costs impacting the P&L in 2026. As a reminder, tariffs remain fluid, and we continue to closely monitor developments. Our guidance also assumes an estimated non-GAAP effective tax rate of approximately 15%. Before concluding, I’d like to provide additional context around several assumptions underlying our full-year 2026 outlook. As Randall outlined, our 2026 product bookings outlook reflects where we are in the XT lifecycle. As we discussed at the time of the Omnicell Titan XT and OmniSphere announcement last December, 2026 marks the 10th year of use for the earliest XT cabinets, which were first shipped in 2017. While we believe the potential benefits of Titan XT provide a significant long-term replacement opportunity, health system capital budget approval cycles typically span multiple quarters to multiple years.

Launching Titan XT in late 2025 was intentional, allowing customers sufficient time to incorporate our new offering into their planning cycles. We continue to estimate the total replacement cycle opportunity to be in excess of $2.5 billion. That said, it is important to remind investors that the XT installed base today is younger than our G-series installed base was at the time of the XT launch, which may create near-term pacing considerations. This dynamic may be offset in part or whole by the expanding value of the nursing and pharmacy technician workflows, supply chain management, and data analytic capabilities that we are building into OmniSphere. These collective factors are reflected in our 2026 product bookings guidance.

As we shared previously, we also expect revenue linearity to remain in place throughout 2026, which is anticipated to result in a quarterly revenue profile that is more muted in terms of quarter-over-quarter dollar movements than experienced in historical patterns from prior years. From a cost structure perspective, our full-year 2026 guidance reflects a continued focus on balancing long-term value creation with profitability. At the midpoint of our full-year 2026 guidance ranges, non-GAAP EBITDA is expected to expand by more than twice the rate of revenue growth.

While continuing to fund innovation development and customer experience initiatives. In closing, we are pleased with our start to 2026 with disciplined execution and a clearly defined platform roadmap anchored by Titan XT and OmniSphere. We believe Omnicell is well-positioned to drive sustainable, profitable growth in 2026 and beyond. With that, we’ll now open the call for questions. Operator.

Operator: Our first question comes from the line of Stanislav Berenshteyn with Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell1: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. I wanted to get an update on the retail segment. Was wondering if you can offer some color as to EnlivenHealth, how’s that progressing? Do you continue to see headwinds related to the footprint within the retail pharmacy segment? Thank you.

Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Omnicell: Hi, Stan. This is Nnamdi here. Thanks for the question. Just to give you a sense of what’s happening there, our team just returned from one of the major conferences, NACDS. What I will say is the mood in the room there was really with the major players looking forward. There’s been a lot of challenging things that have happened in that space in the last couple of years, but it seemed like there was some sense of stability and looking forward. Now, it doesn’t mean that those challenges are getting muted, but what they are reporting back is that those key players are looking forward. The volumes there continue to increase, and it seemed like the tone in the room was really about how to deliver on those growing demands at the lowest cost.

That’s where we see our Enliven solutions really playing a role there. Omnichannel communication, patient engagement solutions. We’re really just focused on engaging our customers in a way that is delivering value for them to meet that growing demand, but also continue to drive costs down with regards to how they serve their customers. What I will say in summary is, it’s been a challenging time in the retail segment. I think that challenge, that challenging sort of dynamic continues to play out. There’s been some sense of kind of looking forward with regards to just trying to figure out how to meet the growing demand that’s out there. We’re just focused on just partnering with them to be able to deliver on that.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell1: Appreciate it. Thank you.

Operator: The next question comes from the line of Jessica Tassan with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

Jessica Tassan, Analyst, Piper Sandler: Hi. Congrats on the great results, and thanks for taking the question. Do you guys just mind kind of articulating the sources of gross margin upside on the product side in 1Q and on the services side and the extent to which you expect those sources of gross margin upside or the gross margin upside to be durable versus kind of transitory? Thank you.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Hey, thanks. Thanks for the question, Jess. In terms of gross margins, we did see 46% total non-GAAP gross margin in the 1st quarter. It compares to 42% a year ago in the 1st quarter and 44% for last year. A couple things contributed to that. First, on the product side, we saw a favorability in the product and customer mix in our connected devices. On the service side, we lapped the investments that we were making during the course of 2025 in field-based software upgrades at our customer. Those two factors are contributing to that performance. What I would say is that margins will continue to fluctuate from period to period. Last quarter, in the 4th quarter, we maybe were a little bit at a lower end.

Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Omnicell: This feels like we’re maybe a little bit at the upper end in the near-term cycle. Don’t wanna call this the new ceiling or new floor. I think we’ll continue to see small fluctuations from period to period based on that mix.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of David Larsen with BTIG. Please go ahead.

David Larsen, Analyst, BTIG: Can you size the Titan deal and also talk about the acute care environment and the impact of the Good Deal for Bill Act on public insurance hospitals, particularly volumes on elective procedures going through?

Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Omnicell: Awesome. Thanks. Thanks, David. You were a little faint on that, but it sounded like the Titan environment and the market conditions around the acute care environment. David, what I would say to start out is it’s a great time to be in medication management. As you know, the two main players there have rolled out new offerings, and customers are reassessing the incumbent solutions. As we also look out there, technology is advancing and really giving us the chance to deliver on consistent reliability, you know, scalable service, enterprise visibility. It’s pretty favorable out there in terms of being in this space today. Following our December announcement, we’ve been out there engaging customers. It’s been very favorable. We continue to build our pipeline.

I’ll point to a couple of things that we’re hearing from our customers as we have those conversations. The things that are really landing well have to do with looking at sort of system-wide visibility. When you think about these complex health systems, the ability to centrally manage things like user management and devices across the health system in a standardized way is resonating as we have those conversations. The other thing that we’re also seeing out there is the ability to sort of have a migration flexibility is also giving us a chance to really engage health systems as they expand, particularly those health systems that have a newer fleet. The ability to have a mixed fleet environment and manage that migration is going really well.

Then we’ve also talked about the workflow benefits with guided workflows and some of the things that we’re really trying to address around operational variability. You know, in an environment with labor constraints as well, that’s really landing well with those guided workflow conversations. In a nutshell, it’s a positive response we’re feeling out there. We’re investing in our commercial go-to-market approach, making sure we have the demo equipment out there to give customers a chance to really experience the solution that we’re rolling out. We’re very encouraged by the discussions that we’re having, and we just continue to engage customers in that dialogue and build the pipeline.

Operator: Next question comes from the line of Allen Lutz with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Allen Lutz, Analyst, Bank of America: Good morning, and thanks for taking the questions. Rand, a follow-up on the product bookings. The guidance there was unchanged, but I wanted to look a little bit underneath the hood. I think you said the install base refresh assumptions are unchanged. As you think about your customers and your prospects, as they think about going for XTExtend versus Titan XT, are you seeing any increase in cancellations for XTExtend and maybe more customers looking toward Titan XT? Would love to get a sense if anything within there is different than your expectations a quarter ago. Then, you know, as it relates to the product bookings guide or conversations with customers, really, has anything changed over the past three months? Thanks.

Randall Lipps, Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder, Omnicell: That’s absolutely a great question because it has changed because now there’s more optionality for customers. I think customers who may have been just leaning into an XTExtend to upgrade their current systems are now saying, "Well, maybe I should use Titan XT, and how do I feather that in with it coming out, the hardware coming out at the second half of this year and the software coming out, first part of next year?" Those conversations have people reevaluating their configurations and their strategies to acquire the equipment. I think you’re right. Probably less people are less interested in the XTExtend package and more interested in how to deploy and when to deploy the Titan XT.

It’s definitely making the conversations and the size of the deals, upsizing the size of deals. That, of course, involves some people having to go back to capital committees and get more monies and rejuggle that a little bit. It’s all really positive. People know that when you deploy technology, you want to deploy it once for a long time. Particularly these healthcare systems would rather wait and get the best result than do it twice in 5 years or something like that. We kind of knew that would happen.

Operator: Our next question comes from the line of Bill Sutherland with Stonex. Please go ahead.

Bill Sutherland, Analyst, Stonex: Thank you. Hey, good morning, everybody. I was curious as, particularly as these deals that you’re in discussion about get larger, Baird, you talked about the likelihood that you’d start to look into leasing or some kind of financing opportunities in certain situations. I’m wondering how that’s progressing for you guys.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Yeah, we continue to find that it’s an important offering for us to provide to customers. There are customers that are trying to line up their cash flows, in line with their operating revenues, and there’s others that are looking at it through a capital purchase lens. Continuing to offer both has been helpful and constructive in conversations, and I think it’s leading to what we believe is a really nice pipeline of activity, both existing customers and competitive opportunities. Having that in our portfolio has been quite useful.

Bill Sutherland, Analyst, Stonex: Got it. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Scott Schoenhaus with KeyBank. Please go ahead.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell0: Hey, team. Nice quarter. Thanks for taking my question. I guess a follow-up there, you just mentioned the pipeline, you know, and you’re prepared to mark the strength of your pipeline, but you mentioned the competitive conversions here. You know, you talked about the workflow enhancements and the technology. I think that’s better than your competitor out there. Your competitor also has a Class II FDA recall in the market. Maybe just talk about what’s embedded in your bookings guidance on the competitive conversion side and where you see this going over the next 12 months because there seems to be a clear opportunity here in the marketplace that you haven’t had in the last replacement cycle that could be, you know, significant. Thank you.

Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Omnicell: Yeah, thanks for the question, Scott. Yeah, we definitely are.

Randall Lipps, Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder, Omnicell: Are excited about the moment that’s present. Having a new product in the market space is one thing, but also knowing that there’s a large group of opportunities out there where customers, ours and our competitors’ customers, will have to make decisions about, you know, their path forward. As we think about the assumptions that were based into the bookings, it’s important to remember that we’ve been taking share over an extended period of time. What that may do is vary a little bit from year to year, but over time, we’ve consistently been able to increase our market share. We’ve built that assumption into our guidance. What you see is a modest increase year-over-year and competitive wins assumed in our guidance.

Operator: Our next question comes from the line of Matt Hewitt with Craig-Hallum. Please go ahead.

Matt Hewitt, Analyst, Craig-Hallum: Good morning and congratulations on the strong start to the year. I guess sticking along the competitive conversion commentary, obviously, market share, you guys are growing it there. I’m just curious, are you seeing an increase in demand from these new customers to sole source, meaning we would expect over the course of this year and the next year the number of sole sourced hospitals or systems has increased because of some of these competitive dynamics? Thanks.

Nnamdi Njoku, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Omnicell: Matt, thanks for the question. I would say as just reflecting on the engagement that we’re seeing out there, I don’t know that we’re seeing a material shift in the volume of sole source agreements. If you recall, most of the ways that we engage with our customers here, we tend to get into those types of arrangements with them, particularly these large customers. I don’t know that there’s a material shift on that front. We are pretty encouraged with just the volume of activity we’re seeing out there. As we start to progress some of these to the contracting stage, perhaps we’ll see something out there. At this point in time, I’m not sure that there’s a signal there I can point to that’s a material change.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Yeah. Matt, the only thing I’d add on to that is that, you know, for our customers, the importance to them of having a reliable cabinet is something that they really enjoy about working with Omnicell. When we think about the innovation culture at the company, that does play into the continued dialogue with customers about how we are helping meet their evolving challenges in the pharmacy. As a thought partner and as an innovation partner, those are two things that really end up in these conversations pretty heavily. Although not changing, definitely worth mentioning.

Randall Lipps, Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder, Omnicell: Yeah.

Got it. Thank you.

Yeah, let me add 1 comment to that. I do think there’s a bigger portion of our bookings coming from competitive conversions as we move into the future. Some of those deals may be sole source. Usually, a big provider does look at doing sole source. It’s just where we are and the dynamic of some of these very large whales, how long it takes to get those contracts in place, I think is what Nnamdi meant in his comment. I think for sure we’re in a fantastic market with a lot of competitive activity. I mean, we just the other day had to double or maybe even more triple the amount of demo equipment out there just because there’s so much demand for people to see the new product.

Matt Hewitt, Analyst, Craig-Hallum: That’s encouraging. Thank you.

Operator: Our final question comes from the line of Gene Mannheimer with Freedom Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Gene Mannheimer, Analyst, Freedom Capital Markets: Thanks. Good morning. Congrats on the good quarter and outlook. Your initial fiscal 2026 EBITDA guidance that you provided back in February was a little bit muted as I think about that. I think you cited some planned investments. It appears that some of those shifted out of the quarter there. Maybe you can elaborate a little bit on what those are and when they, when we might expect to see it land. Thank you.

Baird Radford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Omnicell: Thanks for the question, Gene. As I, as a follow-up to Jess’s question about gross margins, we did land at 46% in the quarter. It’s a little higher than we’ve seen over the course of the last several quarters, so you know, maybe a little bit higher than normal. In terms of shifting out of costs, we had some places where we had the flexibility to keep the operating activities on track, not put us behind, but to shift a little bit of money out into Q2 and Q3. I would expect to see some operating expense increases as we move into those periods.

I think the most important part is that we’ve really focused internally on the spend discipline and trying to reach the right balance between the long-term growth needed and profitability in the business. In the first quarter, we did see early signs of those initiatives starting to take traction. What you see is us gathering and putting some of that additional belief into the remainder of the year. Overall, I think it’s a positive quarter and it’s a positive outlook as we move forward, and that’s what we reflected in the guidance update.

Gene Mannheimer, Analyst, Freedom Capital Markets: Gotcha. Thank you.

Operator: With no further questions in queue, I will now hand the call back over to Randall Lipps for closing remarks.

Randall Lipps, Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder, Omnicell: Well, thanks for joining us today. We’re really excited about where we are and just this point in the history of medication management, just the wide availability in the market to make some serious changes. We’re excited about the innovations we’re bringing. Our platform that’s empowered by AI, our enterprise agents, and new robotics and world models, all these things are helping to drive us toward the Autonomous Pharmacy in an accelerated fashion, which is, as you all know, has been at the tip of our tongue for quite a while. We’re starting to see that come into view. It’s exciting customers, and it’s even exciting, of course, to our employees who are the best automation team in healthcare. We appreciate you guys. Thanks for joining us today, and we’ll see you soon. Cheers.

Operator: Thank you again for joining us today. This does conclude today’s conference call. You may now disconnect.
