HSIC has turned into somewhat of a worrisome stock for investors in recent years. The company has experienced no organic revenue growth over the past two years, suggesting that future acquisitions, which would require significant capital expenditures, may be needed to drive growth. Additionally, HSIC has seen a 2.8% decline in its free cash flow margin over the last five years, reflecting increased investment to defend its market position.

More recently, the stock closed down more than 2% after appointing Fedd Lowery as the next CEO to replace Stanley Begman, who earlier said he would retire effective March 2. This news did the bade well with investors, leading to a fall in its price in the trading session.

For the current year, which ended in December 2025, analysts expect HSIC’s EPS to grow 3.6% YoY to $4.91 on a diluted basis. The company’s earnings surprise history is mixed. It surpassed or matched the consensus estimate in three of the last four quarters and missed on one occasion.

Among the 16 analysts covering HSIC stock, the consensus is a “Moderate Buy.” That’s based on six “Strong Buy” ratings, nine “Holds,” and one “Strong Sell.
