First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Total revenue was $118 million, compared to $85 million in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 39% driven primarily by higher Testing Services revenue, reflecting increased testing volumes, continued execution across core transplant testing programs, and contributions from Patient and Digital Solutions; partially offset by lower Lab Products revenue as the Company advances its portfolio optimization strategy.
Testing services revenue of $91 million, an increase of 48% year over year, and testing services volume of approximately 54,900, an increase of 17% year over year, reflecting an increase in average revenue per test, including the recognition of prior period revenue associated with improved collections, a favorable mix-shift in surveillance testing, and increased for-cause growth across transplant programs.
Patient and digital solutions revenue was $16 million, compared to $12 million in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 33% driven by continued adoption of new transplant centers in the CareDx Pharmacy, along with increasing adoption of digital solutions.
Lab Product revenue remained relatively flat at $10 million, down 4% from the first quarter of 2025, while the Company continues to focus on growth in its core Testing Services and Patient and Digital Solutions businesses.
GAAP net income was $3 million, compared to GAAP net loss of $10 million in the first quarter of 2025. Basic and diluted GAAP net income per share was $0.05, compared to basic and diluted GAAP net loss per share of $0.19 in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting higher revenue and improved operating leverage.
Non-GAAP net income was $18 million, compared to $5 million in the first quarter of 2025. Diluted non-GAAP net income per share was $0.34 compared to $0.09 i n the first quarter of 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA was $19 million, compared to $5 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven by revenue growth and continued focus on operational efficiency and cost discipline.
2026 Guidance
For the full year 2026, CareDx now expects revenue to be in the range of $447 million to $465 million, compared to the $420 million to $444 million range that was previously disclosed. The Company now expects full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $43 million to $57 million.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release includes forward-looking statements, including expectations regarding the achievement of CareDx’s financial and operational goals and its expectations and prospects for 2026. These forward-looking statements are based upon information that is currently available to CareDx and its current expectations, speak only as of the date hereof, and are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond CareDx’s control, that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected, including general economic and market factors, and global economic and marketplace uncertainties, among others discussed in CareDx’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including, but not limited to, the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 filed by CareDx with the SEC on February 25, 2026, and other reports that CareDx has filed with the SEC. Any of these may cause CareDx’s actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied by CareDx’s forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. CareDx expressly disclaims any obligation, except as required by law, or undertaking to update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
CareDx has presented in this release certain financial information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and also on a non-GAAP basis, including non-GAAP cost of testing services, non-GAAP cost of product, non-GAAP cost of patient and digital solutions, non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP other income, net, non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin (%), non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share and adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool.
We define non-GAAP net income and per share results as the GAAP net income (loss) and per share results excluding the impacts of stock-based compensation expense; acquisition-related amortization of purchased intangible assets and related tax effects; changes in estimated fair value of contingent consideration; litigation settlement expense; business development and portfolio optimization expense; and certain other charges presented in the reconciliation in this release. We define adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP net income before interest income, income tax expense, depreciation expense and other (income) expense, net. We define non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin excluding the impacts of stock-based compensation expense, and acquisition-related amortization of purchased intangible assets included in cost of sales. Non-GAAP gross margin is calculated as non-GAAP gross profit divided by total revenue. Corporate free cash flow is defined as Cash from Operations less Capital Expenditures.
We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in assessing our operating results through the eyes of management and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core business operating results over multiple periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance. Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, when considered in conjunction with CareDx’s GAAP financial statements, because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of CareDx’s operating results as reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided immediately following the financial tables. A reconciliation of the forecasted range for adjusted EBITDA for 2026 is not included in this release due to the number of variables in the projected range and because we are currently unable to quantify accurately certain amounts that would be required to be included in the U.S. GAAP measure or the individual adjustments for such reconciliation.
