About: In 1984, Danaher's founders transformed a real estate organization into an industrial-focused manufacturing company. Then, through a series of mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures, Danaher now focuses primarily on manufacturing scientific instruments and consumables in the life sciences and diagnostic industries after the late 2023 divestiture of its environmental and applied solutions group, Veralto.

Danaher Q2 2025 Update
While the worst seem to be behind them, the business isn't quite humming enough to get investors excited yet. Revenue growth guidance for 2025 remains unchanged at 3%. But they did raise full year adjusted diluted net EPS guidance to a range of $7.70 to $7.80 vs previous range of $7.60 to $7.75. Compared to the past few years, Danaher's multiples have noticeably come down. However, it is hard for a stock to go up if revenue growth hovers around LSD level.

Danaher Stock: Attractively Valued And Poised For Growth Acceleration
Danaher Corporation is returning to growth, led by strong bioprocessing demand and resilient diagnostics, with Life Sciences expected to recover in late 2025. Margins may face short-term pressure, but a $150M cost-reduction plan and easing China headwinds should drive margin expansion from FY26 onward. The stock trades at a meaningful discount to historical valuation, offering compelling upside as earnings growth is set to reaccelerate post-FY25.
