Action:ReiteratedDate:03/24/26
PRGO scores weak-to-midrange primarily due to deteriorating profitability and declining revenue trends, despite positive cash generation and reduced balance-sheet leverage. Technicals are strongly bearish with the stock trading below key moving averages and negative momentum indicators. Guidance suggests a challenging 2026 transition year with notable near-term EPS headwinds and impairment risk, while the very high dividend yield and extended revolver maturity provide partial support.
Positive Factors
Operational efficiency gains
Sustained, realized operational savings of ~$320M indicate durable cost competitiveness and structural margin support. These supply-chain and process improvements reduce unit costs, bolster long-term gross margin potential, and provide cash flow insulation versus cyclical revenue weak periods.
Negative Factors
Declining revenue and weak profitability
Multi-year revenue erosion and a large 2025 operating loss with a deeply negative net margin reflect structural demand challenges, pricing/composition issues, and below-the-line pressures. Persistent top-line weakness makes sustained margin recovery harder and increases reliance on cost cuts for EPS restoration.

Perrigo Company Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 26, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:May 06, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Neutral
The call presented a mix of meaningful operational progress and clear near-term headwinds. Positive execution items include share gains, $320M of realized operational benefits, a tripled innovation pipeline, margin expansion over recent years, and a targeted operational savings program. Offsetting these are substantial legacy and cyclical challenges: a large $1.3B goodwill impairment (with potential additional charges), significant Infant Formula revenue declines and inventory/working capital pressure, market softness in OTC (notably cough/cold), and a near-term EPS hit (~$0.60) from underabsorption. Management frames 2026 as a transition year with confidence in a second-half recovery and 2027 improvement, but the near-term guidance and noncash impairments temper the outlook.Positive Updates
Full-Year CORE and All-In EPS & Operating Income Improvement
Full year All-In operating income grew 2% and All-In EPS improved 7%, finishing at $2.75. CORE Perrigo operating income increased 7% year-over-year and CORE EPS rose 14% versus prior year (CORE 2025 baseline EPS $2.52).
Negative Updates
Infant Formula Revenue Declines and Dilutive Impact
All-In net sales declines in Infant Formula of roughly 25% in the quarter and ~10% for the full year; fourth quarter All-In operating income declined $29 million, including a negative $21 million impact from Infant Formula. Management expects Infant Formula to remain a headwind and is under strategic review.

Company Guidance
Management's 2026 guidance for CORE Perrigo calls for organic net sales of -3.5% to +0.5%, CORE EPS of $2.25–$2.55 (versus a 2025 CORE baseline of $2.52), CORE gross margin of 39–40% and CORE operating margin of 15–16%, with a temporary under‑absorption EPS headwind of ~ $0.60 and CORE EPS phasing ~30–35% in H1 and ~65–70% in H2; on an All‑In basis (assuming Dermacosmetics divestiture in Q2) they expect net sales -5.5% to -1.5%, gross margin 36.5–37.5%, operating margin 12.5–13.5% and EPS $2.00–$2.30. To offset headwinds they are launching a 2‑year operational enhancement program (≈7% workforce reduction) targeting annualized pretax savings of $80–$100M (≈80% realized in 2026) with implementation costs of $80–$90M; operating cash‑flow conversion is expected in the mid‑60% range and net leverage to finish 2026 roughly in line with or slightly better than 2025 (4.0x at year‑end 2025). They also flagged potential additional Q1 2026 goodwill impairments up to $350M (after a $1.3B 2025 impairment) and reminded investors Project Energize/supply‑chain initiatives delivered about $320M of benefits in 2025.Perrigo Company Financial Statement Overview
