Varex Announces Financial Results for Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2026

SALT LAKE CITY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Varex Imaging Corporation (Nasdaq: VREX) today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter fiscal year 2026.

Q2FY26 Summary

Revenues $216 million
GAAP gross margin 34% | Non-GAAP gross margin* 34%
GAAP operating margin 7% | Non-GAAP operating margin* 9%
GAAP net loss $0.19 per diluted share | Non-GAAP net income* $0.21 per diluted share
Cash outflows from operations of $2 million

“Demand remained solid in the second quarter, with continued momentum across both our Medical and Industrial businesses driven by global CT, cargo systems and photon counting detectors,” said Sunny Sanyal, Chief Executive Officer. Sanyal added, “As we move into the second half of fiscal 2026, we are encouraged by favorable demand trends across both Medical and Industrial segments. We believe these dynamics position us well to grow revenue year-over-year in the second half of fiscal 2026.”

Varex’s second quarter revenue of $216 million was up 1% year-over-year. Medical segment revenue was $156 million, while Industrial segment revenue was $60 million. Non-GAAP gross margin was 34% in the quarter compared to 36% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, and non-GAAP EPS decreased to $0.21 in the quarter from $0.31 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Balance Sheet & Cash Flow

Cash outflows from operations was $2 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities was $88 million as of the end of the second quarter, compared to $155 million at the end of fiscal year 2025. The change in cash primarily reflects the Company’s debt redemption and refinancing completed in March, as well as increased working capital associated with inventory to support anticipated demand and future shipments.

Outlook

For the second half of fiscal 2026, revenue is expected to be up approximately 3% compared to the second half of fiscal 2025. As a result, full fiscal year 2026 revenue is expected to be in the range of $860 million to $880 million and non-GAAP EPS to be in the range of $0.80 to $1.00.

Guidance for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 is as follows:

Revenues are expected to be between $210 million and $225 million
Non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share is expected to be between $0.15 and $0.30

While the Company has applied for tariff refunds, no International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) tariff refund is assumed in guidance.

Guidance for the company’s net earnings per diluted share is provided on a non-GAAP basis only. This non-GAAP financial measure is forward-looking, and the company is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate reconciliation to a GAAP forecast of net earnings per diluted share without unreasonable effort due to certain of these reconciling items being uncertain, out of its control, and the amount and timing of these items being unable to be reasonably predicted. The actual amounts of such reconciling items could have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

*Please refer to “Reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP items to the comparable GAAP measures.

¹		Other non-operational costs consist primarily of costs related to the early extinguishment of debt. For both the three and six months ended April 3, 2026, these costs totaled $9.4 million, compared to $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended April 4, 2025, respectively. These amounts reflect losses incurred in connection with the early repayment, refinancing, or modification of existing debt agreements. Such costs are episodic, arise from discrete financing decisions, and are not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Management believes excluding these amounts from its non‑GAAP results enhances comparability across periods and with peer companies and provides investors with a clearer view of the Company’s core operating results.

Reconciliation of 2025 Non-GAAP Financial Information As Previously Reported to 2025 Non-GAAP Financial Results as per Updated Policy – Excluding gains and losses from equity-method investments

(Unaudited)

We annually review our non-GAAP policy to determine whether any changes to the policy should be made. As part of our review, we considered a strategic shift at one of our equity method investees. Because of this, and because we do not control operations of either of our equity method investments, we believe that the results of these businesses no longer provide investors with information helpful to evaluate our ongoing operations. As such, we have modified our non-GAAP policy to exclude the gains and losses from our equity method investments. The gains and losses on the company’s equity-method investments in privately-held companies are recorded to other expense, net, in the company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. This updated non-GAAP policy will become the basis for the company’s comparisons going forward in fiscal year 2026 and is reflected in its 2026 guidance. The reconciliations below reflect the application of the new policy as if it had been adopted at the beginning of fiscal year 2025. Please refer to “Reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP items to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures derived from the company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These measures are not presented in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These measures include: non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP operating expense; non-GAAP operating earnings; non-GAAP operating earnings margin; non-GAAP earnings before taxes; non-GAAP net earnings; non-GAAP net earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP dilutive shares; and non-GAAP EBITDA. The company is providing a reconciliation above of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The company is unable to provide without unreasonable effort a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis due to the potential significant variability and limited visibility of the excluded items discussed.

The company utilizes a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of its business, in making operating decisions, and forecasting and planning for future periods. The company considers the use of the non-GAAP measures to be helpful in assessing the performance of the ongoing operation of its business by excluding unusual and one-time costs. The company believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental data that allows for greater transparency in the review of its financial and operational performance. The company also believes that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies.

Non-GAAP measures include the following items:

Amortization of intangible assets: The company does not acquire businesses and assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the term of amortization can vary significantly and are unique to each acquisition or asset purchase.
