Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary
The call was strongly positive, with 22% total revenue growth, accelerating Data and Apps momentum, major FDA and foundation-model milestones, expanding pharma partnerships, improved profitability, higher guidance, and a rapidly growing MRD opportunity. The main challenges were slower hereditary testing growth, still-negative operating cash flow, limited current MRD sales-force deployment, pending xF approval, and uncertainty around the early whole-genome ramp.
Tempus increased guidance to $1.595 billion-$1.605 billion in 2026, representing approximately 25% growth, and expects 2026 Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $65 million, an improvement of about $72 million over 2025; the company expects to achieve positive free cash flow by year-end, continued improvement in Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow in 2027, hereditary growth rates reaching mid-teens growth by the end of the year, and data-business growth close to 30% range plus for three years, five years, and seven years. xT CDx is expected to provide an estimated $200 uplift in ASP, equating to approximately $85 million on an annual basis beginning in 2027, while xF, expected to be approved and in-market in the latter half of 2027, is expected to provide an additional $550, with approximately $400 million of revenue uplift in 2028; xF guidance assumes a $7,500 ADLT price.
- Strong Second-Quarter Revenue GrowthQ2 revenue increased 22% year-over-year to $382.5 million, with the quarter being the first period in which Tempus was lapping Ambry as fully integrated into the results.
- Diagnostics Revenue Growth and CGP AccelerationDiagnostics revenue increased 20% year-over-year to $289.3 million. Higher growth in CGP testing, due to acceleration in the business, offset slower hereditary cancer testing growth.
- Data and Apps MomentumData and Apps revenue increased 28% year-over-year to $93.2 million, while the Insights data licensing and modeling business grew 36% during the quarter. Management said June delivered some of the strongest growth seen to date across the portfolio.
- FDA Approval for Tumor-Only xT CDxTempus received FDA approval for tumor-only xT CDx, enabling the migration of its entire solid tumor DNA portfolio to unified ADLT pricing. Management expects an estimated $200 uplift in ASP, equating to approximately $85 million of annual revenue beginning in 2027.
- Potential xF Pricing and Revenue UpliftThe liquid biopsy xF assay is currently in front of the FDA, with approval and market entry expected in the latter half of 2027. Management now assumes a $7,500 ADLT price for xF and expects an incremental $550 ASP lift. Between xT CDx and xF approvals, Tempus anticipates approximately $400 million of revenue uplift in 2028.
- Foundation Model Milestone with AstraZenecaTempus introduced initial results from and successfully delivered the first version of its foundation model to AstraZeneca. The model was used to predict patient responses in several public and blinded clinical trials, met AstraZeneca's acceptance criteria, and is expected to serve as a foundation for additional research and development work.
- Expansion of Pharma Data PartnershipsTempus signed a large multi-year data licensing and modeling agreement with BioNTech, adding to partnerships with AstraZeneca, GlaxoSmithKline, Bristol Myers Squibb, Merck, and others. The company also signed large deals with Daiichi Sankyo, LevelSet Bio, and Incyte Pharmaceuticals, contributing to approximately $200 million in total bookings during the quarter.
- Improved Profitability and Financing PositionGAAP net income was $5.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $8 million, representing a $13.6 million year-over-year improvement. Tempus completed a $460 million offering of 0.0% convertible senior notes due 2032 and used part of the proceeds to repay an Ares Capital loan, which management said will save over $30 million annually in interest expense and enable positive free cash flow by year-end.
- Higher Cash Balance and Improved Operating Cash UseCash equivalents and marketable securities increased to $820.7 million from $643.8 million in the prior quarter. Cash used in operating activities improved significantly to negative $7.5 million during the quarter.
- Personalis Acquisition Expands MRD OfferingTempus announced an agreement to acquire Personalis, bringing its minimal residual disease, or MRD, testing business in-house. Management described MRD as a $20 billion-plus market and one of the fastest-growing segments in oncology diagnostics, and said the acquisition will accelerate commercial adoption, round out the portfolio, and strengthen the company's multimodal data offering.
- Rapid Growth in MRD Testing VolumesPersonalis-related MRD testing volumes increased from approximately 6,500 tests in Q1 to approximately 9,000 tests in Q2, a 38% quarter-over-quarter increase. Reimbursement is in place for several indications, with additional indications expected, and management said volumes could be materially higher as more sales representatives are equipped to sell NeXT.
- Personalis Transaction Structure Intended to Limit DilutionThe Personalis transaction is structured as a 100% stock transaction, with Tempus having the option to elect cash for up to 50% of the consideration. Management is working to establish a debt facility and intends, depending on the stock price, to finance a large portion of the proceeds with debt to minimize shareholder dilution.
- Raised 2026 GuidanceTempus increased 2026 revenue guidance to $1.595 billion-$1.605 billion, representing approximately 25% growth. The company expects 2026 Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $65 million, an improvement of about $72 million over 2025.
- Strong Data Platform Demand and Long-Term VisibilityManagement said the data business has experienced its strongest momentum in years, with customers increasingly seeking access to Lens, GPU provisioning, data uploads, and model development within the platform. The company reported a stronger pipeline and more demand than previously, with visibility into growth in 2026 and 2027, and is targeting long-term data business growth close to 30% plus.
- GenomeNext Launch Outperformed Initial ExpectationsThe GenomeNext launch was approximately 50% above management's expectation within the first two or three weeks. Management said whole-genome testing could provide upside in the second half of the year and that the product was not yet cannibalizing the whole-exome business.
- Improving Hereditary Growth TargetManagement is seeking to ramp hereditary growth rates to mid-teens growth by the end of the year, supported in part by the GenomeNext launch and potential whole-genome growth.
- Higher Algorithm Attach RateThe solid-tumor algorithm attach rate increased to 45% in Q2 from 40% in Q1. Management said adoption was broad-based across its algorithm suite, and core diagnostic volume growth accelerated to 31% in Q2.
- Capacity to Continue Strategic InvestmentManagement said the core business is generating increasing gross margin and gross profit dollars, allowing Tempus to make incremental long-term investments, including sales-force expansion, while remaining EBITDA-positive and cash-flow-positive.
