A rather encouraged market traded the company&#8217;s shares up by more than 4% in response. That was more than good enough to top the <strong>S&amp;P 500<\/strong> index&#8217;s slightly over 1% increase.<\/p>\n<h2>Narrower-than-expected declines<\/h2>\n<p>QuidelOrtho&#8217;s fourth-quarter and full-year results, unveiled after market close on Wednesday, showed that the company earned $708 million in revenue. Although that was down by almost 5% on a year-over-year basis, it topped the average analyst estimate of slightly more than $698 million. <\/p>\n<p>Non-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/g\/generally-accepted-accounting-principles\/\">GAAP<\/a> (adjusted) net income also fell, tumbling to $42.6 million ($0.63 per share) from the $78.6 million of Q4 2023. Again, though, the result was good enough to beat the consensus pundit projection, in this case $0.58 per share. <\/p>\n<p>QuidelOrtho chalked up the declines largely to an 18% fall in its revenue for respiratory diagnostic products. This was due to the sharp fall of its Covid-related business now that the pandemic is largely in the past, and a decline in influenza testing.<\/p>\n<h2>Guiding for profitability growth<\/h2>\n<p>Management issued full-year guidance in its earnings release, writing that it expects to earn $2.60 billion to $2.81 billion in revenue. Adjusted net income should hit $2.07 to $2.57 per share. Those figures for 2024 were $2.78 billion and $1.85, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone expected QuidelOrtho to post weaker top- and bottom-line numbers due to the worst of Covid receding into the past. What they didn&#8217;t expect was this tempo of recovery, with both metrics coming in notably higher than analyst projections. Going by the company&#8217;s guidance, that recovery should continue to snowball, so the stock is looking quite attractive just now.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n            <span class=\"article-disclosure\"><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/author\/4067\/\">Eric Volkman<\/a> has no position in any of the stocks mentioned.
