SEC filingRevenue growth driven by MFA acquisition and higher sales in Animal Health, with gross margin expansion and reduced foreign currency losses.
For the three months ended December 31, 2025, Phibro Animal Health reported net sales of $373.9 million, a 21% increase from $309.3 million in the prior year period. The growth was primarily driven by the acquisition of Zoetis's medicated feed additive (MFA) portfolio, which contributed $57.5 million in incremental revenue. Gross profit rose 30% to $132.7 million, with gross margin expanding 260 basis points to 35.5%, reflecting favorable product mix, higher average selling prices, and lower acquisition-related cost of goods sold ($0.8 million vs. $1.6 million). Operating income surged 97% to $50.3 million, as higher gross profit more than offset an 8% increase in SG&A. Net income jumped to $27.5 million ($0.67 per diluted share) from $3.2 million ($0.08 per diluted share) a year ago, aided by a significant reduction in foreign currency losses ($2.1 million vs. $11.7 million).
Management did not provide explicit numeric guidance but expressed confidence in sufficient liquidity from cash, operating cash flows, and credit facilities to meet near-term obligations. The company continues to integrate the Zoetis MFA acquisition and is executing the Phibro Forward initiative focused on revenue growth and cost savings. Key risks include regulatory developments for carbadox (Mecadox), operating exposure in Israel (16% of assets and sales), and trade tariff uncertainties. The acquisition contributed $382.8 million to cumulative net sales since closing, indicating strong early returns.
As of December 31, 2025, Phibro held $55.5M in cash and equivalents plus $19.0M in short-term investments. Total debt stood at $731.2M, comprising $630M in term loans (net of $5.8M unamortized costs), $107M drawn on the revolver, and $20.6M current portion. Shareholders' equity grew to $332.4M from $285.7M at June 30, 2025, driven by net income. The net leverage ratio remained within the 4.75x covenant.
