Legal Proceedings
On April 24, 2025, the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts entered final judgment in favor of Insulet Corporation in its ongoing litigation against EOFlow Co., Ltd.; EOFlow, Inc.; Nephria Bio, Inc.; and EOFlow’s CEO, Jesse Kim (collectively, “Defendants”), Insulet Corp. v. EOFlow Co. Ltd. et al., 1:23-cv-11780-FDS (D. Mass.). The litigation concerned the Defendants’ misappropriation of Insulet’s proprietary trade secrets relating to the design and manufacture of the Omnipod insulin patch pump. On December 3, 2024, a unanimous jury found four trade secrets asserted by Insulet valid and misappropriated and awarded Insulet total damages of $452 million, composed of $170 million in compensatory damages and $282 million in exemplary damages. The Court’s April 24, 2025 orders upheld the jury verdict and further entered a permanent injunction against Defendants. The injunction prohibits Defendants and others subject to the order from using, possessing, selling, distributing, or seeking regulatory approval for any products that were designed, developed, or manufactured, in whole or in part, using or relying on Insulet’s trade secrets. The injunction is worldwide and took effect immediately subject to a limited exception that permits six months of continuing sales to those patients of EOFlow that existed in the Republic of Korea and the European Union as of October 2023. The permanent injunction further requires EOFlow to assign certain patent applications to Insulet, disgorge any break-up fees received from Medtronic in connection with a previously contemplated acquisition, and submit to ongoing audits to ensure compliance with the Court’s orders. In view of the scope of the permanent injunction, the Court reduced Insulet’s monetary award to $59.4 million to avoid a double recovery.
The Company has not recorded the damages awarded in the Company’s consolidated statements of income as EOFlow has appealed and Insulet has cross-appealed. EOFlow filed a motion to the court of appeals requesting that the permanent injunction against it be stayed in its entirety during the pendency of the appeal. On July 7, 2025, the court of appeals granted a stay in part “only to the extent that the district court’s temporary stay (set to end October 24, 2025), regarding EOFlow patients in the Republic of Korea and the European Union, is extended (1) to include patients residing in the European Union who were using the relevant product(s) as of April 24, 2025, and (2) until further notice of the court.”
