Cochlear delivered mixed H1 FY26 results with sales revenue flat at $1,176m (+1% reported, -2% constant currency) but underlying net profit declined 9% to $195m due to higher emerging markets mix and slower Nucleus Nexa launch. The company expects a stronger H2 driven by broad Nexa availability and maintains FY26 underlying net profit guidance at the lower end of $435-460m range. Key points: Cochlear implant units grew 6% to 27,016 with Nucleus Nexa System receiving positive reception from professionals; Strong momentum in November/December with ~10% YoY growth in cochlear implant units, 80% comprising new Nexa System; Services revenue increased 2% to $311.6m driven by growth in developed markets

Trading update and reduction to FY26 earnings guidance

Cochlear Limited has reduced its FY26 underlying net profit guidance to $290-330 million (from $435-460 million) due to softer-than-expected trading in developed market cochlear implants, Middle East conflict uncertainty, lower gross margins, cost restructuring expenses, and foreign exchange headwinds. Second half sales growth is now expected to be 2-6% in constant currency, though the company remains confident in its long-term growth strategy and innovation pipeline.
