Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Coty reported fiscal 2025 net revenue of $5,892.9 million, down 4%, and a reported net loss of $381.1 million, compared with net income of $76.2 million a year earlier. The loss reflects a $212.8 million non-cash asset impairment and a $248.1 million equity swap mark-to-market hit. The company expects first-quarter fiscal 2026 LFL sales to decline 6% to 8% and adjusted EBITDA to fall in the mid-to-high teens percentage, with a return to growth in the second half.

  • FY25 reported net loss was $381.1 million, or $(0.44) per diluted share, versus net income of $76.2 million in FY24.
  • Q4 net revenue was $1,252.4 million, down 8%, and Q4 adjusted EBITDA was $126.7 million, down 23%.
