QuidelOrtho Q1 revenue slips to $693 million; adjusted EPS rises to $0.74

Mixed Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

QuidelOrtho reported first-quarter 2025 revenue of $693 million, down from $711 million a year earlier, mainly due to lower COVID-19 and Donor Screening sales. Adjusted diluted EPS rose to $0.74 from $0.44, and GAAP net loss narrowed to $13 million from $1.71 billion, which included a prior-year goodwill impairment charge. The company maintained its full-year 2025 guidance, so shareholders see weaker sales offset by higher profitability.
