Earnings per share grew +52.3% in a year while the price moved −18.1%. SNN · Healthcare · Medical Devices · data as of 3 November 2026. Page: https://www.sectoralpha.in/us/stocks/snn Sector Alpha also publishes a daily newsletter that explains one Indian stock at a time: https://newsletter.sectoralpha.in/?utm_source=sectoralpha&utm_medium=ai_text&utm_campaign=llms ## Key numbers - Business trend: Turning around, from the last 12 quarters - Price: $30.17 (−18.1% in a year) - P/E: 20.2×, over 8.8 years - Revenue (Jun 2026): $3.1 B (+4.6% on a year ago) - Profit (Jun 2026): $303 M (+3.4% on a year ago) - Operating margin: 14.5% (flat on a year ago) - ROE: 12%, FY25 - ROIC: 8.7%, against a 6.8% cost of capital: +1.9 points The main question: yearly earnings per share moved +52.3% while the share price moved −18.1%. ## What is the Smith & Nephew share price today? Smith & Nephew plc's share price was $30.17 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been falling for 11 weeks. That is 2.8% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $26 and $37, and at that close it sat 36% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 1 week in a row. Over the last 10 years the share price moved −12% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Smith & Nephew pay? Smith & Nephew plc paid $0.78 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.16 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $30.17 that is a yield of 2.59%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Smith & Nephew on? Smith & Nephew is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Smith & Nephew profitable? Smith & Nephew plc earned $303 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +3.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 6th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $625 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 4.5% a year on average. That is 9.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $214 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $625 M (+51.7% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +4.6% on a year earlier and the margin moved +0.0 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +56.4% and revenue +5.7%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Smith & Nephew make, and is it growing? Smith & Nephew plc reported $3.1 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +4.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 8th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 4.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $6.2 B. FY25 revenue was $6.2 B, +6.1% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +5.7% on average, against 4.3% 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 +11.4%, against +8.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +115.3%, against +3.6% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Smith & Nephew keep? Smith & Nephew plc's operating margin was 14.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, about the same as the same quarter a year ago. Over the last four quarters it has moved +2.9 percentage points. Across 5 years it has been between 12.6% and 15.2%. The latest quarter is within that range. In the latest quarter it moved +0.0 percentage points on the same quarter a year ago. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +2.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +1.1 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Smith & Nephew's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 222% of Smith & Nephew plc's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $1.3 B of operating cash against $625 M of profit. After $433 M of spending on assets, $852 M was left over as free cash. 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. ## Where does Smith & Nephew's cash go? Smith & Nephew plc 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 $1.2 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 6.7% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $1.2 B 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. ## What is Smith & Nephew's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Smith & Nephew plc's P/E is 20.2×, 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. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +52.3% while the price moved −18.1%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved −4.1% a year; about −9.7% a year came from earnings growth and about +5.6 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. 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. ## Is the Smith & Nephew business getting better or worse? Smith & Nephew plc's business is turning around. EPS growth has swung from −67.3% at its low to +116.1%, improving for 4 quarters in a row, with ROCE steady at 21.2%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. 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. ## How much does Smith & Nephew earn on its capital? Smith & Nephew plc earned a ROE of 12% in FY25. That is up from a low of 4% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.9 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 10.1% net margin and 0.59× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 10.1% net margin × 0.59× asset turnover × 1.98× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 11.8% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 8.7% − 6.8% = +1.9 percentage points. The 6.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. ## Does Smith & Nephew have too much debt? Smith & Nephew plc has total debt of $3.8 B against shareholder equity of $5.2 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.73× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.60 in FY21 to 0.63 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Smith & Nephew shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for Smith & Nephew plc, so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.2 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is Smith & Nephew from balance-sheet trouble? For Smith & Nephew plc, the Z-score is 3.26. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 3.26 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Smith & Nephew rank in its industry? 48.1 out of 100, rank 17 of 30 in Medical Devices, with 51% of the evidence available. Smith & Nephew plc scores 48.1 out of 100 against the 30 companies it is compared with in Medical Devices, ranking 17. Some evidence is missing, so the score is pulled toward the middle on purpose. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 16.6 + 13.6 + 10.3 + 7.6 = 48.1. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Smith & Nephew compared with? Smith & Nephew ranks 17 of 30 Medical Devices companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 48.1 out of 100. 1.

They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
