The Cooper Companies Inc. (COO) Earnings: Q4 2025 — Revenue Up, EPS Miss

None

The Cooper Companies Inc. (COO) — Q4 2025 results

Revenue increased 4.6% year-over-year to $1.07 billion, coming in slightly below the consensus revenue estimate of $1.07 billion (about $6.84 million short). Diluted earnings per share fell to $0.43, missing the EPS estimate of $1.13 by roughly $0.70. Overall, top-line growth masked pressure on margins and profitability.

  • Total revenue: $1.07 billion, +4.6% YoY (estimate roughly $1.07 billion, ~$6.84 million below consensus).
  • Gross profit: $650.8 million, down 4.0% YoY.
  • Operating profit: $140.4 million, down 29.2% YoY.
  • Net income attributable to common shareholders: $84.6 million, down 28.0% YoY.
  • Diluted EPS: $0.43, down 27.1% YoY (vs. estimate $1.13).
  • Margin and cost dynamics

  • Cost of sales rose sharply to $414.4 million, up 21.6% YoY, a key driver of the gross-profit decline.
  • The large increase in cost of sales compressed gross and operating margins, resulting in a near 30% drop in operating profit despite revenue growth.
  • Cash flow and balance sheet items

  • Cash from operating activities: $261.4 million, down 2.5% YoY.
  • Purchases of property, plant and equipment (capex): $96.9 million, down 30.8% YoY, indicating reduced investment spending in the quarter.
  • Cash and cash equivalents: $110.6 million, up 2.8% YoY.
  • Total liabilities: $4.16 billion, down 1.8% YoY.
  • Bottom line

  • The Cooper Companies (COO) delivered modest revenue growth but faced margin headwinds from rising cost of sales and a sharp decline in operating profit, while EPS came in well below expectations. Lower capital spending and stable cash balances offer some flexibility, but profitability will likely be the primary focus for investors going into the next quarter.
