Perrigo's first quarter 2025 results showed a slight decline in net sales but significant growth in adjusted EPS and operating income, primarily due to the recovery of the infant formula business and benefits from Project Energize. The company reaffirmed its full-year financial targets despite widening net sales target ranges due to macroeconomic uncertainty.
Net sales decreased 3.5% to $1.04 billion, primarily due to divested businesses, exited product lines, and currency translation.
Adjusted diluted EPS increased 106.9% to $0.60, driven by higher adjusted operating income and lower interest expense.
Adjusted gross margin expanded 440 basis points to 41.0%, mainly due to infant formula business recovery and the Supply Chain Reinvention program.
Organic net sales decreased 0.4%, with growth in Nutrition, Upper Respiratory, and Healthy Lifestyle categories offset by lost distribution of lower margin products and the lack of prior year benefit from Opill® stocking.
Perrigo widened its fiscal year 2025 reported and organic net sales growth targets due to macroeconomic uncertainty but reaffirmed all other financial targets, including adjusted EPS.
