Medpace Holdings Earnings Call Transcript Summary of Q1 2026
Key points for investors:
- Q1 2026 revenue was $706.6M, up 26.5% year-over-year. EBITDA was $149.4M (21.1% margin) and net income was $123.9M. EPS was $4.28. Results were strong on a reported and constant-currency basis.
- Net new business awards (net bookings) were $618.4M in the quarter, producing a net book-to-bill of 0.88. Ending backlog was ~$2.9B (up 2.9% YoY) with ~$1.94B expected to convert to revenue in the next 12 months; backlog conversion in Q1 was 23.3%.
- Cancellations were elevated (the highest in over a year), pressuring net bookings. Cancellations were concentrated mainly in oncology and cardiovascular; management said these cancellations appeared to be program-specific (product performance, reprioritizations) rather than broad funding-driven pullbacks.
- Management reconfirmed full-year 2026 guidance for revenue, EBITDA, net income and EPS (assumptions: effective tax rate 19–20%, interest income $27.5M). Kevin Brady noted reconfirmation despite the Q1 cancellation headwind.
- Cash/financial position: $652.7M cash on hand; operating cash flow of $151.8M in Q1; negative DSO (–58.8 days). Top 5 and top 10 customers were ~28% and ~37% of LTM revenue, respectively.
- Hiring and investment: Medpace continues to hire and invest (including in AI capabilities). Management expects near-term AI investments to offset productivity gains, with net benefits likely a few years out.
- Management change: This was President Jesse Geiger’s last earnings call after 18.5 years; August Troendle (CEO) will retake day-to-day President duties in the near term.
- Risks/near-term outlook: Elevated cancellations and softer gross awards in the quarter create uncertainty for sequential revenue cadence; management is focused on expanding and improving pipeline and win rate to offset cancellations.
Bottom line: Financials remain healthy with strong revenue and cash generation, but elevated cancellations have reduced book-to-bill and create near-term uncertainty. Management reaffirmed full-year guidance and is prioritizing pipeline expansion and win-rate initiatives while continuing to invest in capabilities (including AI) for longer-term productivity gains.
