Coty Inc. reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 results with softer topline and weaker profitability, while significantly strengthening its balance sheet. Net revenue was $1.68 billion, up 1% reported but down 3% like-for-like, as both Prestige and Consumer Beauty declined on an underlying basis amid a more promotional market.
Reported operating income dropped to $148.2 million and Coty posted a net loss of $126.9 million, versus a profit a year ago, largely due to lower gross margins and a realized loss on the Wella sale. Adjusted EBITDA fell 15% to $330.2 million, though adjusted EPS improved to $0.14. Strong free cash flow of $513.1 million and the $750 million Wella stake sale reduced total debt to $3.04 billion and financial net debt to $2.60 billion, the lowest leverage in about nine years. New Executive Chairman and Interim CEO Markus Strobel is launching a “Coty. Curated.” framework and continuing a strategic review of Consumer Beauty. Coty withdrew its full-year FY26 EBITDA and free cash flow guidance and now only guides Q3, expecting mid-single-digit like-for-like revenue decline, 200–300 basis-point gross margin compression and adjusted EBITDA of $100–110 million, around breakeven adjusted EPS.
