Why Is Omnipod Insulin Device Maker Insulet Stock Jumping Today?

Zinger Key Points
  • Insulet's Q2 revenue of $488M exceeded estimates, driven by strong Omnipod 5 demand and international growth.
  • Insulet raised its full-year revenue forecast to 18%-21% growth, up from the previous 15%-19% range.

Insulet Corporation PODD shares are trading higher after the company reported preliminary second-quarter results.

The company reported preliminary revenue of $488 million for the second quarter of 2024, marking a 23% increase from the $397 million reported in the previous year. The figure outpaces the street view of $460.27 million.

“Second quarter revenue exceeded our expectations across the board as a result of strong demand for Omnipod 5, resulting in robust revenue growth and sequential increases in new customer starts in both the U.S. and international markets,” said Jim Hollingshead, President and Chief Executive Officer. 

This outperformance exceeds the guidance range of 15% to 18% in constant currency, driven by strong revenue growth across all product lines.

Outlook Raised: When it releases its full financial results on August 8, 2024, the company expects to raise its full-year 2024 total Omnipod revenue outlook to 18% to 21% (previously 15% to 19%).
