The latest announcement is out from ConvaTec ( (GB:CTEC) ).

ConvaTec reported first-half 2026 revenue of $1,232 million, up 4.4% year-on-year, with organic growth of 5.0% excluding InnovaMatrix and adjusted operating profit rising 3.9% to $262 million, despite a $69 million non-cash impairment tied to reimbursement changes for InnovaMatrix in the U.S. Adjusted diluted EPS increased 6.3%, the interim dividend was lifted 15%, and the group announced a $200 million share buyback to be completed by year-end.

Growth was broad-based across all chronic care categories, led by strong new product launches such as ConvaFoam, Esteem Body and GentleCath Air, and robust infusion care demand, particularly for diabetes and Parkinson’s therapies. Management reaffirmed 2026 guidance for mid-single-digit organic revenue growth, margin expansion to at least 23%, double-digit EPS growth and around 100% equity cash conversion, and reiterated medium-term Accelerate strategy targets for operating margins in the mid‑20s and sustainable 6–8% annual revenue growth from 2027, underlining confidence in long-term execution despite InnovaMatrix-related headwinds.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:CTEC) stock is a Buy
with a £315.00 price target.

Spark’s Take on CTEC Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, CTEC is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by solid underlying financial performance (growth, improving operating margins, positive free cash flow) and supportive guidance for continued growth and margin expansion. This is tempered by increased leverage and notable operational/regulatory risks flagged on the call, while valuation looks expensive and technicals appear near overbought despite an uptrend.
