Penumbra posts 15.6% Q3 2026 revenue growth to $410.1M as Boston Scientific acquisition at $14.5B enterprise value awaits early-2027 regulatory close

Penumbra's Q3 2026 results confirm durable commercial momentum — thrombectomy revenue grew 18.1% year-over-year to $279.2 million while gross margin expanded 50 basis points to 68.3%, driven by favorable product mix. The dominant strategic fact of this filing is the pending acquisition by Boston Scientific Corporation at $374 per share and approximately $14.5 billion enterprise value, expected to close in early 2027 pending regulatory approval. SG&A inflation of 20.9% year-over-year, partly driven by $7.1 million in deal-related professional services costs, is eroding operating leverage that the underlying business would otherwise be generating.
