Bruker (BRKR) swings to 2025 GAAP loss but guides 15–17% EPS growth for 2026

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bruker Corporation reported a challenging 2025, with modest growth but weaker profitability and a GAAP loss. Full-year revenue rose to $3.44 billion, up 2.1% from 2024, yet organic revenue fell 3.7%. Q4-25 revenue was $977.2 million, essentially flat year-over-year.

GAAP operating income dropped to $68.2 million for 2025 from $253.1 million, driven by $127.2 million of goodwill and intangible impairments and $77.4 million of restructuring charges. GAAP diluted loss per share was $(0.15), while non-GAAP diluted EPS was $1.83, down from $2.41.

Management initiated 2026 guidance calling for revenue of $3.57–$3.60 billion, implying 4%–5% growth, with 1%–2% organic growth and non-GAAP EPS of $2.10–$2.15, 15%–17% above 2025 despite an estimated 8% foreign-exchange headwind.

Positive

• Strong 2026 non-GAAP EPS growth guidance: Company projects FY26 non-GAAP EPS of $2.10–$2.15, a 15%–17% year-over-year increase from $1.83, despite an estimated 8% foreign-exchange headwind and only 1%–2% expected organic revenue growth.

Negative

• Material profit deterioration and GAAP loss in 2025: GAAP operating income dropped to $68.2 million from $253.1 million, driven by $127.2 million of impairment charges and $77.4 million of restructuring costs, resulting in a GAAP diluted loss per share of $(0.15) versus EPS of $0.76 in 2024.

Insights

Equity research analyst

2025 shows profit pressure and a GAAP loss, but 2026 guidance targets strong EPS recovery.

Bruker delivered 2025 revenue of $3.44 billion, up 2.1%, yet organic revenue fell 3.7%. Non-GAAP operating income declined to $433.1 million and the non-GAAP margin compressed to 12.6% from 15.4%, signaling weaker underlying profitability.

GAAP results were hit by $127.2 million of goodwill and intangible impairments and $77.4 million of restructuring charges, contributing to a GAAP diluted loss per share of $(0.15). Non-GAAP diluted EPS fell from $2.41 to $1.83, a substantial step down.

For 2026, management guides revenue to $3.57–$3.60 billion with 1%–2% organic growth and non-GAAP EPS of $2.10–$2.15, up 15%–17%, despite an estimated 8% FX headwind. Execution on cost-savings initiatives and a return to organic growth, particularly after an expected mid-single-digit organic decline in Q1-26, will be important to track in subsequent disclosures.

BILLERICA, Massachusetts – February 12, 2026 – Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR) today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and for the full year ended December 31, 2025.

Frank H. Laukien, Bruker’s President and CEO, commented: “At the conclusion of a difficult year 2025, with headwinds from academic funding, tariffs and currencies, we are pleased that in the fourth quarter we delivered revenues ahead of our expectations. A recovery in biopharma and industrial research markets in the second half of the year, as well improvements in semiconductor orders enabled our Scientific Instruments segment to achieve a book-to-bill ratio greater than 1.0x for the second quarter in a row, while our BEST segment booked strong multi-year orders.”

He continued: “While our fourth quarter margin recovery progressed well sequentially, it was still lagging our prior guidance. Therefore, we have decided to drive our major cost-savings initiatives beyond the upper end of our previous range, and we are poised to deliver very significant operating margin expansion and double-digit EPS growth in 2026. We expect continued improvements in our markets to drive demand for our differentiated post-genomic discovery, translational and diagnostics solutions. Our FY26 guidance assumes a return to organic revenue growth by the second quarter, with LSD organic growth for the full year.”

Fourth Quarter 2025 (Q4-25) Financial Results

Bruker’s revenues for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $977.2 million, a decrease of 0.2% compared to $979.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. In Q4-25, revenues decreased organically by 5.1%, while growth from acquisitions was 0.8%, and foreign currency translation provided a growth tailwind of 4.1%.

Q4-25 Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI) revenues of $907.7 million decreased 0.4% yoy, with an organic decrease of 5.1%. Q4-25 Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies (BEST) revenues of $71.5 million decreased 0.8% yoy, with an organic decrease of 5.1%, net of intercompany eliminations.

Q4-25 GAAP operating income was $76.3 million, compared to $72.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Bruker’s Q4-25 non-GAAP operating income was $153.5 million, compared to $177.5 million Q4-24, and Q4-25 non-GAAP operating margin was 15.7%, compared to 18.1% in Q4-24.

Q4-25 GAAP diluted EPS was $0.10, compared to diluted EPS of $0.09 in Q4-24. Fourth quarter 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.59, compared to $0.76 in Q4-24.

Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) Financial Results

FY25 revenues were $3.44 billion, an increase of 2.1% from $3.37 billion in FY24. Our FY25 revenues decreased 3.7% organically yoy, while growth from acquisitions was 3.5%, and foreign currency translation was a 2.3% tailwind.

FY25 BSI revenues of $3.17 billion increased 2.4% compared to $3.10 billion in FY24, with organic revenue decreasing by 3.5%. FY25 BEST revenues of $270.9 million decreased 4.3%, compared to $283.0 million in FY24, with an organic decrease of 5.4%, net of intercompany eliminations.

FY25 GAAP operating income was $68.2 million, compared to $253.1 million in FY24. Our FY25 GAAP results reflect the impact of non-cash impairment charges to goodwill and intangible assets totaling $127.2 million and restructuring charges of $77.4 million primarily recorded during Q3-25. Non-GAAP operating income in FY25 was $433.1 million, a decrease of 16.4% compared to $518.0 million in FY24. Bruker’s non-GAAP operating margin in FY25 was 12.6% compared to 15.4% in FY24.

FY25 GAAP diluted loss per share was $(0.15), compared to EPS of $0.76 in FY24. Our FY25 non-GAAP diluted EPS was $1.83, compared to $2.41 in FY24.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures is provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26) Financial Outlook

Bruker expects FY26 revenues of $3.57 to $3.60 billion, compared to FY25 revenues of $3.44 billion, with 4% to 5% year-over-year reported revenue growth, including:

•Organic revenue growth of 1% to 2%, including an expected MSD organic revenue decline in Q1-26

•M&A revenue growth contribution of approximately 1.5%

•Foreign currency translation revenue tailwind of approximately 1.5%

Bruker expects FY26 non-GAAP EPS of $2.10 to $2.15, compared to $1.83 in FY25, an increase of 15% to 17% year-over-year. This includes a currency headwind of approximately $0.15, or 8%, implying constant exchange rate (CER) non-GAAP EPS growth of 23% to 25% yoy.

Our FY26 revenue and non-GAAP EPS guidance is based on foreign currency exchange rates as of December 31, 2025.

For the Company’s outlook for 2026 organic revenue growth, M&A revenue growth, constant exchange rate revenue growth, and constant exchange rate non-GAAP EPS growth, and non-GAAP EPS, we are not able to provide without unreasonable effort the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, or reconciliations to such GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis. Please see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a description of items excluded from our expected non-GAAP EPS.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross profit margin; non-GAAP operating income; non-GAAP operating income margin; non-GAAP SG&A expense; non-GAAP interest and other income (expense), net; non-GAAP profit before income taxes; non-GAAP income tax rate; non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring actions, impairments, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other non-operational costs.

We also may refer to CER currency revenue growth, CER non-GAAP EPS growth, and free cash flow which are also non-GAAP financial measures. We define the term CER currency revenue as GAAP revenue excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency translation rates. We define the term CER EPS as non-GAAP EPS excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency translation rates. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less additions to property, plant, and equipment. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure to evaluate our business because it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment that is available for, among other things, acquisitions, investments in our business, repayment of debt and return of capital to shareholders.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and therefore, may not be comparable among companies. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our

performance. However, we urge investors to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included in the accompanying tables, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. Specifically, management believes that the non-GAAP measures mentioned above provide relevant and useful information which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry, as well as by our management, in assessing both consolidated and business unit performance.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes this provides a more comparable measure of our continuing business by adjusting for certain items that are not reflective of the underlying performance of our business. These measures may also be useful to investors in evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business and forecasting future results. We regularly use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions. We also measure our employees and compensate them, in part, based on certain non-GAAP measures and use this information for our planning and forecasting activities.

Additional information relating to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the tables accompanying this press release following our GAAP financial statements.

With respect to our outlook for 2026 non-GAAP organic revenue, non-GAAP M&A revenue, and non-GAAP EPS, we are not providing the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures or corresponding reconciliations to such GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis, because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty certain items that may affect such measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Our expected non-GAAP organic revenue and EPS ranges exclude primarily the future impact of restructuring actions, unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses and purchase accounting fair value adjustments. These reconciling items are uncertain, depend on various factors outside our management’s control and could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, our future revenues and EPS presented in accordance with GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

Any statements contained in this press release which do not describe historical facts may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding our fiscal year 2026 and beyond financial outlook, our outlook for reported revenue growth, organic revenue growth, M&A revenue growth contributions, CER currency revenue growth, margin improvements, foreign currency translation revenue impact, EPS, non-GAAP EPS, and CER Non-GAAP EPS growth; effects of academic market and tariff dynamics on our future financial results and our ability to mitigate such effects in the future; management’s expectations for the impact of foreign currency and acquisitions; the effects of our expanded cost savings initiatives; and for future financial and operational performance and business outlook; future economic conditions; and statements found under the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section of this release. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations, but are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated, including, but not limited to, (1) the length and severity of any recession and the impact on global economic conditions, (2) the impact of supply chain challenges, including inflationary pressures, (3) the impact of geopolitical instability and tensions and any sanctions, including any reduction in natural gas exports from Russia resulting from the ongoing conflict with Ukraine and resulting market disruptions, such as higher prices for and reduced availability of key metals used in our products, (4) the conflict in Israel, Palestine and surrounding areas and the possible expansion of such conflicts and potential geopolitical consequences, (5) the ongoing tensions between the United States and China, tariff and trade policy changes and restrictions, and the increasing potential of conflict involving countries in Asia that are critical to our supply chain operations, such as Taiwan and China, (6) continued volatility in the capital markets, (7) the impact of increased interest rates, (8) the integration and assumption of liabilities of businesses we have acquired or may acquire in the future, including our recent acquisitions of PhenomeX, ELITech, Chemspeed, and NanoString, (9) our restructuring and cost-control initiatives, changing technologies, product development and market acceptance of our products, (10) the cost and pricing of our products, manufacturing and outsourcing, competition, dependence on collaborative partners, key suppliers and third party distributors, capital spending

and government funding policies, (11) changes in governmental regulations, intellectual property rights, and litigation, (12) exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, (13) the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, (14) our ability to service our debt obligations and fund our anticipated cash needs, (15) the effect of a concentrated ownership of our common stock, (16) the loss of key personnel, (17) payment of future dividends, (18) the impact (if any) of macroeconomic issues, and (19) other risk factors discussed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. These and other factors are identified and described in more detail in our filings with the SEC, including, without limitation, our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as may be updated by our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements other than as required by applicable law.

Why did Bruker (BRKR) report a GAAP loss per share in 2025?
