Envista Holdings Corp. reported fourth‑quarter 2025 results that surpassed consensus expectations, with revenue rising to $750.6 million—an increase of 10.8% year‑over‑year—and adjusted earnings per share of $0.38, beating the $0.32 consensus by $0.06 (18.8%). The earnings beat was driven by disciplined cost management and a favorable product mix that lifted margins across both core segments.
The Specialty Products & Technologies segment generated $475.9 million in core sales, up 10.9% from $410.9 million a year earlier, while the Equipment & Consumables segment grew 10.7% to $274.7 million from $242.0 million. Strong demand for orthodontic and implant products, coupled with the successful commercialization of the Spark platform, contributed to the robust performance in both segments. Spark’s profitability in the second half of 2025 helped offset lower growth in legacy product lines.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 22% to $111.0 million, supported by a 14.8% margin that improved 90 basis points year‑over‑year. The margin expansion was largely attributable to higher pricing power in the Specialty Products segment and the cost‑efficient scaling of Spark. Adjusted gross margin fell 220 basis points to 55% due to a significant foreign‑exchange benefit in the prior year, but the company’s focus on high‑margin product lines and operational leverage helped maintain a healthy EBITDA profile.
Envista’s $166 million share‑repurchase program for 2026 was executed with 1.2 million shares bought back in the quarter and 9.2 million shares repurchased in the year to date. Management reiterated its 2026 guidance, projecting core sales growth of 2%‑4% and adjusted EBITDA growth of 7%‑13%, while maintaining a free‑cash‑conversion target of roughly 100%. The guidance reflects confidence in sustained demand for core products and the continued expansion of Spark, even as the company anticipates a $40 million tariff headwind in 2026.
CEO Paul Keel said, “With our disciplined focus on Growth, Operations, and People, Q4 2025 marked another quarter of continued progress for Envista.” He added that the quarter’s 10.8% core revenue growth and 22% adjusted EBITDA growth positioned the company well for 2026, underscoring management’s belief in the long‑term strength of its core businesses and high‑growth platforms.
