Neogen reports two business segments: **Food Safety** and **Animal Safety**. Food Safety provides diagnostic solutions, test kits, consumables, culture media and related products used by food and feed producers, processors, laboratories and regulators to detect or manage pathogens, spoilage, toxins, allergens and sanitation risks, and to assess certain food-quality and nutritional attributes. In FY2026, the segment generated $641.1 million in net revenue, approximately **73.7%** of consolidated revenue. [1](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P145005052)[2](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P145005058)[6](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T16582136)

Animal Safety serves the worldwide animal-safety market with veterinary instruments, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, topicals, parasiticides, diagnostics, rodent and insect control, and genomics testing. Its customers and channels include veterinarians, retailers, livestock producers and distributors; drug-detection products also serve workplace testing and human-forensic markets. In FY2026, it generated $229.3 million in net revenue, approximately **26.3%** of consolidated revenue. The percentages are calculated from segment net revenue after intersegment eliminations and total consolidated revenue of $870.4 million. The company identifies Food Safety and Animal Safety as its reportable segments.

## Company history

Neogen was incorporated in Michigan in June 1981 and began operating in 1982, with founder James L. Herbert initially its sole employee. Herbert became CEO and chairman in 2006 and stepped down as CEO in 2017, when John Adent took the role. [5](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P145005055)[22](https://www.neogen.com/48d829/globalassets/pdfs/annual-reports/annual-report-2017.pdf)[23](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P185426737)

The company expanded through acquisitions, including culture-media business Acumedia in 2000 and genetics-testing company GeneSeek in 2010. In 2021 it acquired Genetic Veterinary Sciences, adding companion-animal genetic testing. [24](https://www.neogen.com/49346a/globalassets/pdfs/annual-reports/annual-report-2018.pdf)[25](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/neogen-acquires-geneseek-inc-89678072.html)[26](https://investors.neogen.com/news/news-details/2021/Neogen-Acquires-Genetic-Veterinary-Sciences-Inc--DBA-Paw-Print-Genetics-12-09-2021/default.aspx)

On September 1, 2022, Neogen completed a transaction combining 3M’s Food Safety Division with the company, a major expansion of its food-safety business. Mike Nassif became CEO and president in August 2025.
