This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes.

Bio-Rad Laboratories is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. earned $371 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +16.9% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $760 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −35.0% a year on average. That is 57.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $318 M.

Net profit is what is left after every cost, interest and tax. Earnings per share, dividends and book value all grow from it.

4 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

Why profit moved: revenue changed −0.1% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.6 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat.

On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −353.0% and revenue +1.4%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. reported $651 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −0.1% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown −3.0% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $2.6 B. The last four reported quarters add to $2.6 B.

Revenue is everything the company billed its customers in the period.

FY25 revenue was $2.6 B, +0.7% on the year before.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +1.4% on average, against −3.0% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +1.4%, against +0.5% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising).

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.'s operating margin was 11.2% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.6 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 10.3% and 19.3%. The latest quarter is within that range.

Operating margin is what is left from every $100 of sales after the costs of running the business, before interest and tax. It shows pricing power and cost control.

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.6 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.1 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales.

Over the last 2 years, 24% of Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, a gap worth watching. In FY25 it brought in $532 M of operating cash against $760 M of profit. After $158 M of spending on assets, $375 M was left over as free cash.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason.

What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $480 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 6.2% of FY25 revenue a year.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn.

Spending on assets: $480 M over the last 3 years.

In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.'s P/E is 10.0×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar of yearly profit.

In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.'s business is turning around. Profit growth has swung from −100.0% at its low to +16.9%, improving for 2 quarters in a row (from single-quarter figures), with ROE rising at 10.2%. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

Why it matters: a turn in growth is often where a bigger change starts. The lines say a turn is forming, so the question is whether the next quarters confirm it.

One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result.

The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone.

This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution.

Compound annual growth rate (%)

Compound annual growth rate over each period, %. Revenue, profit and EPS come from yearly figures; the stock price row is price growth over the same periods. A dash means no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. earned a ROE of 10% in FY25. That is up from a low of −38% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 7.0 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses.

Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. We do not have the full capital split, so ROE is the longest history we can draw here.

It comes from a 29.4% net margin and 0.24× asset turnover (sales divided by assets).

Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 29.4% net margin × 0.24× asset turnover × 1.42× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 10.0% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed.

The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 2.2% − 9.2% = −7.0 percentage points. The 9.2% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. has total debt of $1.4 B against shareholder equity of $7.2 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.19× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.02 in FY21 to 0.19 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money.

Debt-to-equity shows how much of the business is paid for with borrowed money. Lower is safer, and the direction matters as much as the level.
