BRKRP BRUKER CORP
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Bruker reported Q1 2026 revenue of $823.4M (+2.7% YoY, but -4.4% organically) and GAAP diluted EPS of $0.02, down from $0.11 a year ago. Non-GAAP operating income fell to $84.2M from $101.7M, and non-GAAP EPS dropped to $0.31 from $0.47. The company reconfirmed its FY2026 guidance for revenue of $3.57-$3.60B and non-GAAP EPS of $2.10-$2.15, but the underlying organic revenue decline and margin compression make this a bearish report.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
The organic revenue decline and sharp EPS drop confirm ongoing headwinds from academic funding, tariffs, and currency. The reconfirmed FY guidance provides a floor, but Q1 results fell short of the trajectory needed to hit the full-year numbers. Watch Q2 for the promised return to organic growth — a miss there would severely undermine credibility. The BSI book-to-bill above 1.0x is a positive leading indicator, but it has not yet translated to reported revenue.

Financial Impact
