Neogen Corp
Founded in 1982, Neogen Corp. has steadily carved out its niche at the intersection of food safety and animal health, positioning itself as a vital player in agricultural diagnostics. The company's journey began in Lansing, Michigan, where it initially focused on innovative solutions to meet the growing demands of food safety and quality testing. By developing rapid tests for detecting foodborne bacteria and allergens, Neogen tapped into a critical market, addressing the increasing concerns about food safety amidst a complex global supply chain. This foundation in diagnostics set the stage for the growth Neogen would see over the ensuing decades.
As Neogen expanded, it strategically diversified its offerings, moving beyond food safety into the broader realm of animal health. This expansion was not merely about developing products; it was about advancing the means by which farms and food producers monitor and ensure the health of their livestock and crops. The company's profits flow from the sale of its diagnostic products, which help minimize risks associated with food contamination and animal diseases. By providing a suite of solutions, from DNA testing for genetic traits and diseases in cattle to disinfectants and rodenticides that maintain farm hygiene, Neogen creates value for its clients by increasing their operational efficiency and safeguarding public health. This strategic blend of food safety and animal health products places Neogen at the heart of modern agricultural and food production systems, where safety and efficiency are paramount.

Revenue: Neogen reported third-quarter revenue of $211.2 million, with core revenue up 0.1%, as Food Safety growth offset a significant setback in Animal Safety from supplier disruptions.
Margins: Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 22.8%, one of the highest levels in recent company history, helped by cost control even though revenue was lower.
Guidance: Full-year fiscal 2026 revenue guidance was raised to $857 million to $860 million, while adjusted EBITDA guidance stayed at $175 million.
Animal Safety: Management said Animal Safety was hurt by third-party supplier problems tied to documentation, raw materials, site transitions, and tariff-related changes, and expects the issue to continue into Q4.
Food Safety: Food Safety posted another solid quarter with 4% core growth, led by indicator testing and culture media, and management said the segment remains on track with market growth.
Transformation: The company is pushing three priorities—commercial execution, product innovation, and operational efficiency—with Petrifilm manufacturing transition on schedule for November 2026 and an Investor Day planned for this fall.
