INSULET CORP · 2026-08-05 · Importance 65 · Surprise 60

Insulet obtained a $59.4 million damages award and worldwide permanent injunction against EOFlow defendants over misappropriation of four Omnipod-related trade secrets. On May 28, 2026, the Federal Circuit reversed the judgment, holding that Insulet’s claims were barred by the Defend Trade Secret Act’s three-year statute of limitations. The Federal Circuit extended a partial stay of the injunction to conduct in the Republic of Korea, the European Union, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, while Insulet pursues rehearing filed July 29, 2026; the reversal had no financial-statement impact because the damages had not previously been recorded.
