Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2025-12-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

"2. ACQUISITIONS Stilla Technologies Acquisition On June 30, 2025 (the ""Acquisition Date""), we acquired all equity interests of Stilla Technologies (Stilla). Stilla is a commercial-stage life science company that develops and markets next-generation droplet digital Polymerase Chain Reaction (""PCR"") systems, which supports a broad range of genetic and molecular testing applications. The strategic rationale for the transaction was to strengthen our offering in droplet digital PCR and facilitate entry into new molecular testing markets. Because the acquired company met the definition of a business, the acquisition of Stilla was accounted for as a business combination, using the acquisition method of accounting. The Stilla acquisition purchase consideration consisted of (i) $166.5 million cash consideration paid to the sellers, (ii) $47.6 million cash payments to debtors on behalf of Stilla, (iii) $15.0 million of cash paid to escrow accounts for representations and warranties of the sellers, and (iv) the fair value of the contingent consideration of $28.6 million. The contingent consideration of up to $50.0 million is payable upon the achievement of certain technological development and sales-related milestones. The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition Date (in millions) with information available as of December 31, 2025: Fair Value As …

"3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND INVESTMENTS We determine the fair value of an asset or liability based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The identification of market participant assumptions provides a basis for determining what inputs are to be used for pricing each asset or liability. A fair value hierarchy has been established which gives precedence to fair value measurements calculated using observable inputs over those using unobservable inputs. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments Level 2: Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments) Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs (including assumptions in determining the fair value of certain investments) Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 are classified in the hierarchy as follows (in millions): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets carried at fair value: Cash equivalents: Corporate debt securities $ $ 1.6 $ $ 1.6 Time deposits 39.4 39.4 U.S. government sponsored agencies securities 59.9 59.9 Money market funds 209.7 209.7 Total cash equivalents (a) 209.7 100.9 310.6 Restricted investments (b) 1.1 1.1 Equity Securities (c) 5,740.5 5,740.5 Loan under …

15. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. We record a reserve when we believe a loss arising from these matters is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of the probability of a loss and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates revised. While we do not believe, at this time, that any ultimate liability resulting from any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity, we cannot give any assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of these matters and their resolution could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending on the level of income for the period.

17. RESTRUCTURING COSTS In February 2025, management approved a new restructuring plan in furtherance of our ongoing program to improve operating performance. The restructuring plan primarily impacts our operations in the U.S. and includes the elimination of certain positions, the consolidation of certain functions, and the relocation of certain operations to lower cost locations. As of December 31, 2025, our February 2025 restructuring plan was substantially complete, with majority of planned actions implemented. The remaining activities relate primarily to administrative matters and the settlement of outstanding employee-related obligations, which are expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2026. In addition to the below restructuring plan reserve activity, management recorded $7.5 million of restructuring expense related to facility exit costs, primarily impacting the Clinical Diagnostics segment, and certain other costs. From February 2025 to December 31, 2025, total restructuring-related expenses for our February 2025 restructuring plan were $48.9 million, primarily representing estimated termination benefits to employees. The adjustments to expense recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025 were primarily due to changes in the estimates of employee termination benefits of our previously announced restructuring plans, and the timing of the remaining employee termination benefit payments in accordance with statutory requirements.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION Bio-Rad is a multinational developer, manufacturer and worldwide distributor of its own life science research products and clinical diagnostics products. We have two reportable segments: Life Science and Clinical Diagnostics. These reportable segments are strategic business lines that offer more than 12,000 different products and services and require different marketing strategies. We do not disclose quantitative information about our different products and services as it is impractical to do so based primarily on the numerous products and services that we sell and the global markets that we serve. The Life Science segment develops, manufactures, and markets instruments, systems, reagents, and consumables used for biological research, biopharmaceutical production processes, food testing regimes, and science education. These products are sold to universities and medical schools, industrial research organizations, government agencies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, biotechnology researchers, food producers and food testing laboratories.

"9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Bio-Rads issued and outstanding stock consists of Class A and Class B common stock. Each share of Class A and Class B common stock participates equally in the earnings and losses of Bio-Rad, and each share is identical to the next in all respects except as follows. Class A common stock has limited voting rights compared to Class B. Each share of Class A is entitled to one-tenth of a vote on most matters, whereas each share of Class B is always entitled to one vote. Additionally, Class A stockholders are entitled to elect 25% of the directors, with Class B stockholders electing the remaining directors. Cash dividends may be paid on Class A shares without paying a cash dividend on Class B shares. In contrast, no cash dividend may be paid on Class B shares unless at least an equal cash dividend is paid on Class A shares. Class B shares are convertible at any time into Class A shares on a one-for-one basis at the option of the stockholder. The founders of Bio-Rad, the Schwartz family, collectively hold a majority of Bio-Rads voting stock. As a result, the Schwartz family is able to exercise control over Bio-Rad. Changes to Bio-Rad's issued common stock shares are as follows (in thousands): Class A Shares Class B Shares Balance at December 31, 2022 25,162 5,074 Class B to Class A conversions 8 (8) Issuance of common stock 30 Balance at December 31, 2023 25,170 5,096 Class B to Class A conversions 21 (21) Issuance of common stock Balance at December 31, 202 …

"3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND INVESTMENTS We determine the fair value of an asset or liability based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The identification of market participant assumptions provides a basis for determining what inputs are to be used for pricing each asset or liability. A fair value hierarchy has been established which gives precedence to fair value measurements calculated using observable inputs over those using unobservable inputs. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments Level 2: Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments) Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs (including assumptions in determining the fair value of certain investments) Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 are classified in the hierarchy as follows (in millions): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets carried at fair value: Cash equivalents: Time deposits 35.5 35.5 Money market funds 114.6 114.6 Total cash equivalents (a) 114.6 35.5 150.1 Restricted investments (b) 1.1 1.1 Equity securities (c) 4,984.1 4,984.1 Loan under the fair value option (d) 359.1 359.1 Available-for-sale investments: Corporate debt securities 481.5 …

7. INCOME TAXES Our effective income tax rate was 23.6% and 23.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The realization of deferred tax assets are dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in future periods. We regularly assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the realizability of our deferred tax assets, we weigh all available positive and negative evidence. Due to the weight of objectively verifiable negative evidence, we believe that it is more likely than not that certain of our federal, state and foreign deferred tax assets will not be realized as of March 31, 2026, and have maintained a valuation allowance on such deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance against our federal, state and foreign deferred tax assets increased by $8.8 million for the period ended March 31, 2026 compared to the year ended December 31, 2025. Our income tax returns are audited by U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities. We are currently under examination by many of these tax authorities. The tax years open to examination include the years 2012 and forward for the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions including France, Germany, India and Switzerland. There are differing interpretations of tax laws and regulations, and as a result, significant d …

Legal matters · 951 characters as filed
12. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. We record a reserve when we believe a loss arising from these matters is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of the probability of a loss and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates revised. While we do not believe, at this time, that any ultimate liability resulting from any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity, we cannot give any assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of these matters and their resolution could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending on the level of income for the period.

14. LEASES We have operating leases and to a lesser extent finance leases, for buildings, vehicles and equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 13 years, which includes our determination to exercise renewal options. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, Current operating lease liabilities, and Operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in Property, plant and equipment, net, Current maturities of long-term debt and notes payable, and Long-term debt, net of current maturities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. For purposes of determining the lease term used in the measurement of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease li …
