by · The Markets Daily

Teleflex (NYSE:TFX – Get Free Report) issued its earnings results on Thursday. The medical technology company reported $2.63 EPS for the quarter, beating analysts’ consensus estimates of $1.90 by $0.73, FiscalAI reports. Teleflex had a negative net margin of 39.67% and a positive return on equity of 11.93%. The business had revenue of $567.80 million during the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $565.52 million. During the same period in the prior year, the business earned $3.67 earnings per share. The company’s quarterly revenue was up .1% compared to the same quarter last year.

Here are the key takeaways from Teleflex’s conference call:

  • Teleflex reported 3.0% pro forma adjusted constant-currency revenue growth and adjusted EPS of $2.63, up 39.2% year over year. It raised 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $7.50–$7.75 while maintaining revenue growth guidance of 3.5%–4.5%; the EPS outlook includes a $0.31 benefit from tariff refunds.
  • Vascular and Surgical delivered solid growth of 4.6% and 5.1%, respectively, while Interventional returned to slight growth at 0.2%. Interventional remains affected by integration disruptions, though management reported progress in customer conversions, distributor transitions, and filling sales vacancies and expects gradual improvement.
  • The Acute Care and Interventional Urology divestiture remains subject to an FTC review following a Second Request, and its closing could slip from the targeted year-end timing into 2027. Teleflex said it remains confident in completing the transaction but acknowledged that the timing is outside its control.
  • Management expects a stronger financial profile in 2027, including operating margins of approximately 23% in the first year after the divestiture closes and lower interest expense and share count from debt reduction and buybacks. These improvements depend in part on completing the transaction and executing cost-saving and stranded-cost mitigation plans.
  • Teleflex sees EZPLAZ as a long-term opportunity with a U.S. market potential of at least $200 million, but expects immaterial revenue in 2026 and a contribution in 2027 as it builds the market and scales production. The company also highlighted progress on its Freesolve scaffold trials and increased R&D investment, while noting that the product’s data readout is still expected in late 2027.
