Insulet Appoints Ashley McEvoy President and CEO

Expects to Exceed First Quarter Revenue Guidance and Raise Full Year 2025 Guidance

Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ: PODD) (“Insulet” or the “Company”), the global leader in tubeless insulin pump technology with its Omnipod^® brand of products, today announced its Board of Directors has appointed Ashley McEvoy President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board of Directors, effective immediately.

Ms. McEvoy succeeds Jim Hollingshead, who has agreed with Insulet’s Board of Directors that his employment with the Company will cease effective as of April 28, 2025, and resigned from the Insulet Board of Directors. The Insulet Board and Mr. Hollingshead mutually agreed that now is the right time to implement this leadership transition. Mr. Hollingshead has entered into a consulting arrangement with the Company to facilitate a smooth transition.

“Insulet continues to successfully deliver on its financial, clinical, and operational objectives while advancing its mission to improve the lives of people with diabetes, and we are confident this leadership change will further the Company’s success,” said Timothy Scannell, Chairman of Insulet’s Board of Directors. “Having stepped into the CEO role from the Board of Directors, Jim has led Insulet through a very strong period of growth and development. During Jim’s tenure, Insulet launched its flagship product, Omnipod 5, which has achieved clear market leadership in type 1 diabetes in the U.S. and Europe, and was the first to market in Automated Insulin Delivery for type 2 diabetes in the U.S. As Jim hands over the reins, Insulet is the clear global leader in our market, and poised to grow and scale even further. We’re grateful for his contributions, and we wish him the best in his future endeavors.”

Mr. Scannell continued, “Our Board conducted a thorough search to identify a dynamic executive with a sophisticated understanding of the MedTech market and a passion for improving lives. In Ashley, we found not only a world-class leader with nearly three decades of healthcare leadership experience, but a visionary with unique insight into operating at the intersection of MedTech and Consumer Health. She brings a track record of driving growth and innovation through market and category creation, including as Executive Vice President and Worldwide Chairman of Johnson & Johnson’s MedTech business, and has deep diabetes experience, having previously served as Group Chairman of Johnson & Johnson Vision and Diabetes Care. We believe that, under Ashley’s leadership, Insulet will achieve even greater success, strengthen growth and innovation, and deliver superior returns for investors.”

“Insulet has transformed diabetes care, and I am honored to join the Company as its next CEO,” said Ms. McEvoy. “Insulet has massive, untapped growth potential, a talented team, unparalleled pharmacy channel access and manufacturing capabilities, and deeply loyal customers – remarkable differentiators and a strong foundation for continued success. At this critical moment in the Company and market’s evolution, Insulet has a unique opportunity to enhance innovation, drive global expansion, and win the hearts and minds of more providers and consumers by thinking differently about the experiences and needs of people with diabetes. I am excited to work alongside Insulet’s accomplished team to do just that – and in the process, continue to revolutionize diabetes care and make life easier for people living with diabetes, while driving value creation for shareholders.”

“It has been a privilege to serve as Insulet’s CEO,” said Mr. Hollingshead. “I am immensely proud of what our team has accomplished in redefining diabetes care through the simplicity and sophistication of the Omnipod platform. I will be forever grateful to all of my colleagues at Insulet for their passion and dedication for improving and simplifying lives for people living with diabetes, which has led us to tremendous success, and more importantly helped us to reach hundreds of thousands of customers all over the world. I look forward to seeing all that will be achieved going forward.”

Insulet expects to exceed its previously provided first quarter revenue guidance and intends to raise guidance for the full year.

The Company will provide further details on its first quarter 2025 earnings call on May 8, 2025, after the close of the financial markets.
