Merck makes prescription medicines and vaccines for people, and medicines, vaccines and monitoring products for animals.
Merck & Co., Inc. is scheduled to report next on October 29, 2026, before the open. The date comes from Nasdaq’s earnings calendar, and companies sometimes move it.
The quarter ending June 30, 2026, against the same quarter a year earlier.
| Measure | 3 months toJun 30, 2026 | 3 months toJun 30, 2025 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Revenue | $16.6B | $15.8B | +5.07% |
| Profit | -$1.3B | $4.4B | -130.16% |
| Profit per share | -$0.54 | $1.76 | -130.68% |
| Free Cash Flow | $4.5B | $2.5B | +77.03% |
These are single quarters, not a trailing year — the figures elsewhere on this site cover twelve months and will be much larger. A seasonal business swings a long way between the two: ServiceNow earns $2.0B of free cash flow in its December quarter and $0.5B in its June one.
Compared against the same quarter a year earlier, not against an analyst forecast. A “beat” or “miss” needs a consensus estimate, which is licensed data we do not carry — and getting it wrong is worse than leaving it out.
“We continued to make substantial progress across our business this quarter, driven by strong execution and growing contributions from new product launches,”
