View PricingSTERIS Falls Short of Market Expectations Despite Revenue Growth
Medical equipment and services company STERIS (NYSE:STE) reported a 5.6% year-on-year increase in sales, reaching $1.37 billion in Q4 of CY2024, though it fell short of market revenue expectations, according to a report by Yahoo Finance. These results reflect the dynamic nature of the industry, influenced by both consistent demand and external challenges such as regulatory pressures and competition.
Despite the revenue shortcomings this quarter, STERIS's non-GAAP profit of $2.32 per share managed to align with analysts' consensus estimates. Founded in 1985, the company has a solid history of providing infection prevention, sterilization, and surgical support products.
Industry Trends and Company Performance
The surgical equipment and consumables industry continues to experience steady demand due to the persistent need for medical interventions. This consistency offers a stable revenue base for companies like STERIS, albeit under pressures of high R&D costs and regulatory compliance.
STERIS has demonstrated a strong long-term growth trajectory, with a compounded annual growth rate of 12.6% over the past five years, even surpassing the average growth rate in the healthcare sector. However, its annualized revenue growth slowed to 9.9% over the past two years.
On the profitability front, STERIS has maintained an average adjusted operating margin of 23.1% over the last five years, showcasing its operational efficiency. However, despite its revenue growth, STERIS's five-year earnings per share (EPS) growth at 10.3% lagged behind its revenue growth rate, suggesting a dilution of shareholder value partly due to a 15.5% increase in its share count.
In terms of consistent revenue performance, constant currency sales saw an average growth of 8.8% over the past two years, indicating stable foreign exchange rates impact.
Future Outlook
Looking ahead, sell-side analysts project a 6% revenue growth for STERIS over the next 12 months, which is a slowdown compared to its recent historical growth but remains above the sector average. Meanwhile, EPS is expected to grow by 8.7% over the next year, with Wall Street targeting a full-year EPS of $9.01.
Overall, while the company's quarterly performance showed missed revenue and aligned EPS, the markets responded with a slight downturn in share price, dropping 1.2% to $218. This indicates a cautious outlook from investors based on the current performance and future guidance.
