Baird Maintains Outperform on Cooper Companies, Lowers Price Target to $97

A strong May for U.S. equities is closing on a sour note, after President Donald Trump accused China of "totally" breaching a tariff agreement, raising new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis/25/05/45693219/feds-favorite-inflation-gauge-slows-but-trumps-china-accusation-flips-market-mood">fears over trade disputes.</a>
The White House is reportedly planning broader tech sanctions against China, with a proposed rule targeting companies majority-owned by already-sanctioned firms. According to people familiar with the matter, these firms would face new licensing conditions from the U.S. government, heightening pressure on Beijing. 
Friday&#8217;s economic reports offered mixed signals. Although inflation showed signs of cooling, consumers pulled back on monthly spending, signaling weakening demand. Personal spending growth slowed to 0.2% in April, a sharp deceleration from 0.7% in March.
Meanwhile, Main Street is sending warning signals, as consumer sentiment remained deeply depressed, holding at a three-year low, according to the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/05/45697983/consumer-sentiment-stuck-at-3-year-lows-as-inflation-fears-hit-44-year-high"> University of Michigan's final May reading.</a> Moreover, year-ahead inflation expectations jumped to 4.5%, the highest since 1981.
Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) was the worst performer among the mega-cap names, sliding 4% and fully erasing the gains it had notched following Wednesday&#8217;s stronger-than-expected earnings release.
The broader market mirrored the decline. The S&amp;P 500 fell 1% to 5,858 points, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 tumbled 1.3% to 21,100—both marking their lowest levels of the week.
Only defensive sectors such as consumer staples and utilities managed to stay above water, as investors rotated into perceived safe havens amid geopolitical and economic unease.
Crude oil prices declined 1.5% to $60 a barrel amid speculation that OPEC+ could consider a production hike larger than the 410,000 barrels-per-day increase already planned. The group is set to meet Saturday.
Gold, often seen as a haven during market stress, failed to gain traction and dropped 0.9% to trade below $3,300 per ounce.
Cryptocurrency markets also faced headwinds. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) sank below $105,000, hitting its lowest level since May 20.

Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Guidance
The Company updated its fiscal year 2025 financial guidance. Details are summarized as follows:
<ul>
<li>Fiscal 2025 total revenue of $4,107 - $4,146 million (organic growth of 5% to 6%) 
<ul>
<li>CVI revenue of $2,759 - $2,786 million (organic growth of 6% to 7%)</li>
<li>CSI revenue of $1,347 - $1,359 million (organic growth of 3.5% to 4.5%)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Fiscal 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $4.05 - $4.11</li>
</ul>
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share guidance excludes amortization and impairment of intangible assets, and certain income or gains and charges or expenses including acquisition and integration costs which we may incur as part of our continuing operations.
With respect to the Company's guidance expectations, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP diluted earnings per share guidance to GAAP diluted earnings per share due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting acquisition-related, integration and restructuring charges and expenses, which are reconciling items between the non-GAAP and GAAP measure. Due to the unknown effect, timing and potential significance of such charges and expenses that impact GAAP diluted earnings per share, the Company is not able to provide such guidance.
