Description: COO The Cooper Companies January 02, 2026
The Cooper Companies (NASDAQ:COO) operates two distinct businesses: CooperVision, which designs and sells spherical, toric, and multifocal contact lenses for conditions such as astigmatism, presbyopia, and myopia; and CooperSurgical, which provides fertility-related consumables and devices, hormone-free contraception (e.g., the Paragard IUD), and cryostorage services for cord blood and tissue. Both segments distribute through eye-care professionals, hospitals, group purchasing organizations and authorized resellers.
In FY 2023 the company reported roughly $2.5 billion in revenue, with CooperVision contributing about 70 % and CooperSurgical the remainder; the contact-lens market is projected to grow at a 5-6 % CAGR through 2028, driven by rising myopia prevalence and an aging population, while the global fertility-assisted-reproduction market is expanding at ~7 % CAGR as delayed child-bearing becomes more common. A key operating metric is the average selling price (ASP) of lenses, which has risen modestly (≈3 % YoY) as premium multifocal and myopia-control products gain market share.
