Revvity stock has dropped 26.7% from its 52-week high of $129.50. Shares of RVTY have declined 11.5% over the past three months, lagging behind the broader Dow Jones Industrials Average's ($DOWI) 1.4% gain.
On a YTD basis, RVTY stock has dipped 14.9%, whereas DOWI has risen marginally. In addition, shares of Revvity have decreased 12.1% over the past 52 weeks, underperforming the Dow Jones' 8.8% return over the same time frame.
Despite recent fluctuations, the stock has been trading below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages since early February.
Shares of Revvity rose marginally following the release of its solid Q1 2025 results on Apr. 28. The company reported revenue of $664.8 million, a 2.3% increase from the year-ago quarter, driven by growth across both segments and surpassing the consensus estimate. Adjusted EPS from continuing operations rose 3.1% year-over-year to $1.01, beating Wall Street expectations.
Looking ahead, Revvity raised its full-year 2025 revenue guidance to a range of $2.8 billion to $2.9 billion, while reaffirming its adjusted EPS outlook between $4.90 and $5.00, which further lifted investor sentiment.
However, rival Labcorp Holdings Inc. (LH) has outpaced RVTY stock. LH stock has soared 13.8% on a YTD basis and 27.2% over the past 52 weeks.
Despite RVTY's underperformance relative to the Dow, analysts have a moderately optimistic outlook. With 17 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is 'Moderate Buy,' and it is currently trading below the mean price target of $119.12.

Customer Service Is A Human Sport—Even In The Age Of AI
Jim Stevenson, CEO and Founder of Bletchley Group. Customer service has never been more scrutinized or more automated. Chatbots field our queries, apps track our orders, and self‑service portals promise instant resolutions. Yet, for all the technological wizardry, one timeless truth endures: at the heart of every customer service request or purchase journey is a human looking for an efficient and memorable experience. I was reminded of this on an otherwise ordinary Saturday evening at an Italian restaurant in Santa Monica. The pasta was sublime, the service attentive but not intrusive, and having debated and ultimately rejected the merits of tiramisu versus panna cotta, the bill arrived at an appropriately relaxed pace. So far, a great service. Then, ten minutes after arriving home, my friend realized her grandmother's heirloom ring, handed down through three generations, was missing. Calling the restaurant while realizing it was probably closed, we expected the standard answer, 'Pop back tomorrow, we'll have a look.' Instead, we were invited straight back, arriving to discover at least three members of staff had abandoned their cleaning and till-counting duties and were searching in the restrooms, around the table and in the bins. They were prepared with a box of disposable gloves so we could join the search. We left ring‑less but raving that this restaurant has earned two lifelong advocates thanks to the staff's genuine concern and willingness to dive into the search (and trash) to look for a customer's ring. Consider this experience while you digest a colder statistic: 78 per cent of UK customers now finish a service interaction frustrated—the highest level in a decade. Worldwide, more than half of consumers will defect after a single bad experience, and PwC reckons nearly a third will dump even a favorite brand after just one slip‑up. We have never had more technology promising to cosset customers, yet most of us now dread contacting 'support'. That contradiction is large enough to drive a chatbot through. Automation, when misapplied, simply scales indifference. Swedish fintech Klarna trumpeted in 2024 that its AI assistant had absorbed the workload of 700 human agents; by May 2025, the CEO was rehiring people because service quality had 'dropped' and customers still 'need to speak to a real person'. Yet technology is not the villain; misapplied technology is. Chewy, the online pet‑supply retailer, refunded a shopper after her dog died, advised her to donate the food, and then sent flowers signed by the agent who took the call. One compassionate gesture, amplified by social media, became brand equity that money cannot buy. Scaling the genuine compassion of sending flowers to a dog owner becomes cynical commercialism if not handled correctly, with authenticity and understanding. Whether searching dustbins or sending bouquets, the same five human values do the heavy lifting: • Empathy: Feel the customer's pain before you fix the process. • Ownership: The first person, or bot, who spots a problem shepherds it to resolution. • Speed: Responses must be quick and conclusive; velocity must lead to resolution. • Visibility: Show the graft; a real‑time progress bar or progress emails beats silent purgatory. • Culture: Celebrate staff who exceed the script; folklore outpaces policy binders. You cannot code kindness, but you can design for it. Map emotional journeys, not just click paths. Let AI clear the low‑stakes questions but provide a 'Human, please.' button inside two taps for the high‑stakes ones. Consult your customer service team, as they have daily interactions with your customers and are familiar with the frustrations and expectations. Replace unhelpful generic updates 'Your request is being processed.' with helpful and personable ones like 'Hang tight—we're on it and will update you within ten minutes.' Above all, broadcast hero stories internally; behavior follows narrative. Build a culture of excellence in customer service that permeates the DNA of your company. Employees will want to work for you, and customers will want to buy from you. Here is the paradox: 80% of companies believed they delivered a "superior experience" to their customers, but their customers do not agree. The tools we built to get closer to customers can push them further away unless they amplify, rather than anesthetize, our humanity. Before rubber‑stamping the next chatbot launch, ask a straightforward question: Would this experience make a customer believe we would dig through the bins for them at eleven o'clock on a Saturday night? If the answer is 'probably not', no algorithmic cleverness will keep them loyal. Design your online and offline experiences with the same core values and excellence in mind to build customer loyalty and brand equity. Excellent customer service is, and always will be, a human sport. Technology is just the kit.
