CooperCompanies, Inc. (US21664P1039) traded as high as $76.14 and last changed hands at $75.10 on August 18, 2026, after crossing above its 200-day moving average of $71.22. The move came alongside a market cap of $14.65 billion and 1,928,063 shares traded.
The latest reported quarter, released on June 4, 2026, showed earnings per share of $1.21, above the $1.10 consensus by $0.11. Revenue reached $1.08 billion, up 7.9% from the same quarter last year, and that gap still shapes the valuation debate.
Analyst backdrop
Current market coverage leaves the stock with a Hold consensus and an average price target of $81.64, with targets ranging from $66 to $86. That spread matters because it puts the shares above the 200-day line, but still below the upper end of the analyst range.
The same earnings snapshot shows a net margin of 5.57% and return on equity of 10.88%. CooperCompanies also kept FY 2026 guidance at $4.58 to $4.66 EPS, while analysts in the same snapshot were looking for $4.63.
What the businesses do
CooperVision remains the companys larger growth engine through soft contact lenses and related products, while CooperSurgical gives it exposure to women's health and fertility products. That mix helps explain why the stock can attract support even when the headline move is driven by technical levels.
The comparison that stands out is simple: revenue rose 7.9% year over year in the latest quarter, while the market value sits at $14.65 billion as the shares trade above a key long-term average. For investors, the next test is whether that operating momentum can keep pace with the current valuation.
