Evolus Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results; Company Delivers Second Consecutive Quarter of Positive Adjusted EBITDA and Reaffirms Full-Year Outlook
Evolus, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOLS), a global performance beauty company with a focus on building an aesthetic portfolio of consumer brands, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
“We started 2026 with a second consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA, delivering profitability1 in what is seasonally our lowest revenue quarter,” said David Moatazedi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Evolus. “This performance reflects continued strength of the business and the benefit from structural improvements we implemented in 2025. Importantly, achieving profitability1 in the first quarter further reinforces the durability of our operating model and our confidence in achieving full-year profitability1 in 2026.”
“Underlying demand across the business remains healthy and consistent with the momentum we exited 2025,” Moatazedi continued. “In the first quarter, we delivered unit growth for Jeuveau® across both U.S. and International markets, and during the second quarter of 2026 we expect to overcome some unique dynamics from the prior year, resulting in high single-digit Jeuveau® growth in the first half and supporting double-digit total revenue growth for the full year. Our performance continues to be supported by strong engagement from our existing customer base, expansion across national accounts, and ongoing growth in our international markets. At the same time, Evolysse® is building momentum and contributing to our expanding share of wallet within accounts.”
“We are continuing to advance our strategy of building a global performance beauty company supported by a differentiated and expanding portfolio,” Moatazedi concluded. “Our commercial platform continues to scale effectively, supported by strong growth in Evolus Rewards™, which now approaches 1.5 million members, along with increasing customer penetration and consistent repeat utilization. We are also progressing key milestones, including the upcoming launch in mid-May of all four injectable hyaluronic acid gels under the Estyme® brand in Europe, and we continue to anticipate U.S. approval of Evolysse® Sculpt later this year. With a more efficient cost structure and expanding operating leverage, we reiterate our full‑year guidance to deliver positive Adjusted EBITDA and double‑digit revenue growth in 2026, while continuing to invest in long‑term value creation.”

1 “Profitability” is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Within this press release, “profitability” for 2025 and prior is defined as achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for more information on the company’s use and definitions of non-GAAP measures.
2 Represents cumulative statistics from the launch of Jeuveau® in May 2019 through March 31, 2026.
3 Represents cumulative statistics from the launch of Evolus Rewards™ in May 2020 through March 31, 2026.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Evolus’ financial results are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
This press release and the reconciliation tables included in the financial schedules below include adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin.
Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit excluding amortization of an intangible asset. Adjusted gross profit margin is defined as adjusted gross profit as a percentage of total net revenues.
Non-GAAP operating expenses excludes (i) revaluation of the contingent royalty obligations, (ii) stock-based compensation expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, revaluation of the contingent royalty obligations, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, and other income (expense), net. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total net revenues.
Management believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin are important measures for investors because management uses adjusted gross profit margin as a key performance indicator to evaluate the profitability of sales without giving effect to costs that are not core to our cost of sales, such as the amortization of an intangible asset.
Management believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful in helping to identify the company’s core operating performance and enables management to consistently analyze the period-to-period financial performance of the core business operations.
Management also believes that non-GAAP operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin will enable investors to assess the company in the same way that management assesses the company’s operating performance against comparable companies with conventional accounting methodologies.
The company’s definitions of adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, non-GAAP operating income margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools and may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures.
Non-GAAP measures should not be considered measures of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from such non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to financial statement data presented in the financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
For a reconciliation of our historical (i) adjusted gross profit, (ii) adjusted gross profit margin, (iii) non-GAAP operating expenses, and (iv) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin presented herein to (i) gross profit, (ii) gross profit margin, (iii) GAAP operating expenses and (iv) GAAP Net Loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see “Reconciliation of Gross Profit Margin to Adjusted Gross Profit Margin,” “Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Expenses to Non-GAAP Operating Expenses” and “Reconciliation of Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin” in the financial schedules below.
In addition, this press release includes information regarding the company’s expected non-GAAP operating expenses and Adjusted EBITDA for the full-year 2026 and Adjusted EBITDA margin by 2028. Evolus has not provided a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, or Adjusted EBITDA margin because a reconciliation of such measures to forward-looking GAAP operating expenses and GAAP net income (loss), respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, is not available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that would impact the forward-looking outlook for these non-GAAP financial measures since they have not yet occurred and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Such unavailable information could have a significant impact on Evolus’ GAAP financial results.
