Summary · why it matters

Haemonetics Corporation's Plasma franchise returned to growth in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, with revenues of $130 million, up 3% on a reported basis and 13% on an organic basis excluding CSL. The company's NexSys PCS plasma collection system continues to thrive, and Haemonetics signed new long-term agreements with BioLife and Grifols in fiscal 2025. However, a debt-burdened balance sheet remains a concern, with long-term debt of $1.22 billion and a debt-to-capital ratio of 50.2% at the end of the fiscal fourth quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2026 earnings has moved south 1 cent to $5.22 per share in the past 30 days, while the revenue estimate is pegged at $1.40 billion, indicating a 4.9% decrease from the year-ago reported number. Haemonetics shares have lost 2.4% over the past year, compared with the industry's decline of 29.5%.
