2Organic Revenue growth denotes foreign currency neutral revenues further adjusted for the impact to revenues from acquisitions and divestitures during the first 12 months post-acquisition/divestiture. 

The BD Medical segment includes the Medication Delivery Solutions (MDS), Medication Management Solutions (MMS) and Pharmaceutical Systems (PS) business units, and the Advanced Patient Monitoring (APM) business unit, which was formed upon the closing of the acquisition of Critical Care from Edwards Lifesciences. The segment's performance includes the revenues of APM from September 3, 2024 to September 30, 2024. BD Medical organic revenue growth was led by MMS.

  • MDS performance reflects strong volume growth across the portfolio with increased share in Vascular Access Management and hypodermic products.
  • MMS performance reflects high double-digit growth in Infusion driven by BD Alaris™ and higher utilization of infusion sets that was partially offset by the prior-year comparison in Dispensing Solutions.
  • PS performance reflects double-digit growth in Biologics, including GLP-1s, that was partially offset by expected transitory market dynamics including customer inventory de-stocking in anti-coagulants and vaccines.

The BD Life Sciences segment includes the Integrated Diagnostic Solutions (IDS) and Biosciences (BDB) business units. BD Life Sciences revenue growth was driven by IDS.

  • IDS performance reflects strong growth in Specimen Management driven by broad volume strength, and double-digit growth in BD MAX™ IVD and BD COR™ that was partially offset by the prior-year comparison in Microbiology.
  • BDB performance reflects transitory market dynamics that resulted in lower market demand for research instruments partially offset by strong growth in clinical solutions that was driven by the FACSLyric™ Clinical Cell Analyzer and cancer reagents.

The BD Interventional segment includes the Surgery, Peripheral Intervention (PI), and Urology & Critical Care (UCC) business units. BD Interventional organic revenue growth was driven by performance across the segment.

  • Surgery performance reflects double-digit growth in Infection Prevention and Phasix™ hernia resorbable scaffold that was partially offset by a tough prior-year comparison in Advanced Repair & Reconstruction. The unit's performance also reflects the impact from the divestiture of the Surgical Instrumentation platform.
  • PI performance reflects double-digit growth in the Peripheral Vascular Disease portfolio and strong growth in End Stage Kidney Disease that was partially offset by a decline in U.S. Oncology due to prior year distributor stocking.
  • UCC performance reflects strong double-digit growth in the PureWick™ franchise with continued adoption of both the Male and Female portfolios.

Assumptions and Outlook for Full Year Fiscal 2025
The company provided the following guidance with respect to fiscal 2025. GAAP revenue growth of 8.9% to 9.4% and currency-neutral adjusted revenue growth of 8.8% to 9.3% include the newly acquired APM business. The company's organic revenue growth guidance of 4.0% to 4.5% includes absorbing an impact about 125 basis points from an expected decline in revenues in China and Bioscience and Pharma market dynamics.

BD's outlook for fiscal 2025 reflects numerous assumptions about many factors that could affect its business, based on the information management has reviewed as of this date. Management will discuss its outlook and several of its assumptions on its fourth fiscal quarter earnings call. 

The company's expected adjusted diluted EPS for fiscal 2025 excludes potential charges or gains that may be recorded during the fiscal year, such as, among other things, the non-cash amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related charges, spin-related costs, and certain tax matters. BD does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking adjusted diluted non-GAAP EPS guidance to the comparable GAAP measure because the impact and timing of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a material impact on GAAP measures of BD's financial performance. We also present our estimated adjusted revenue growth and organic revenue growth for our 2025 fiscal year after adjusting for the illustrative impact of foreign currency translation. BD believes that this adjustment allows investors to better evaluate BD's anticipated underlying earnings performance for our 2025 fiscal year in relation to our underlying 2024 fiscal year performance.

Conference Call and Presentation Materials
BD will host an audio webcast today for the public, investors, analysts, and news media to discuss its fourth quarter results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures/Financial Tables
This news release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These include adjusted revenues, revenue growth rates on a currency-neutral, adjusted, and organic basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, and free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. BD management believes that the use of non-GAAP measures to adjust for items that are considered by management to be outside of BD's underlying operational results or that affect period to period comparability helps investors to gain a better understanding of our performance year-over-year, to analyze underlying trends in our businesses, to analyze our operating results, and to understand future prospects. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to measure and forecast the company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts. We believe presenting such adjusted metrics provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by BD management for its operational decision-making and for comparison to other companies within the medical technology industry. Although BD's management believes non-GAAP results are useful in evaluating the performance of its business, its reliance on these measures is limited since items excluded from such measures may have a material impact on BD's net income, earnings per share or cash flows calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management typically uses non-GAAP results in conjunction with GAAP results to address these limitations. BD strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP measures used by BD may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered replacements for, and should be read together with, the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

We present adjusted revenues for the full fiscal year 2024 after eliminating the recognition of accruals resulting from recent developments relating to the Italian government medical device pay back legislation, as well as another legal matter, which substantially relate to years prior to the current fiscal year, because we believe these items affect the comparability of the periods presented to prior periods.

We also present adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024, and the corresponding prior periods, after eliminating items we believe are not part of our ordinary operations and affect the comparability of the periods presented. Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations includes adjustments for the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, integration and restructuring costs, transaction and financing costs, spin-off related costs, certain regulatory costs, certain product remediation costs, certain legal matters, certain investment gains and losses, certain asset impairment charges, and certain pension settlement costs. In particular, current and prior-year adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations results exclude European regulatory initiative-related costs, which represent costs incurred to develop processes and systems to establish initial compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation and the European Union In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation (collectively, the "New EU Medical Devices Regulations"), which represent a significant, unusual change to the existing regulatory framework. We consider the excluded European regulatory initiative-related costs to be duplicative of previously incurred costs and/or one-off costs related to establishing initial compliance with such regulatory regimes, and in each case are limited to a specific period of time. These expenses relate to establishing initial compliance with the New EU Medical Devices Regulations and include the cost of labor, other services and consulting (in particular, research and development and clinical trials) and supplies, travel and other miscellaneous costs. These costs were recorded in Cost of products sold and Research and development expense.

We also present revenue growth rates for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024 over the corresponding prior periods on a currency-neutral basis after eliminating the effect of foreign currency translation, where applicable. We also show the growth in adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations compared to the prior year periods after eliminating the impact of foreign currency translation to further enable investors to evaluate BD's underlying earnings performance compared to the prior periods. We calculate foreign currency-neutral percentages by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of results on a foreign currency-neutral basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors' ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to the prior periods. 

We also present free cash flow for the full fiscal year 2024 over the corresponding prior period, which is net cash provided by continuing operating activities less capital expenditures, to provide a view of the Company's ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures given that we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure. We believe the presentation of results of free cash flow in addition to reported results helps improve investors' ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to the prior period.

Reconciliations of these and other non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures are included in the attached financial tables. Within the attached financial tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages and earnings per share amounts presented are calculated from the underlying amounts.

The Company cannot anticipate the timing, scope, outcome or ultimate impact of the SEC investigation, financial or otherwise, including but not limited to what actions the SEC might pursue against the Company and/or individuals. As a result, the ultimate resolution is unknown at this time, and it is possible that the amount of the Company's liability could significantly exceed its currently accrued amount. The amount in 2023 includes a charge of $563 million to adjust the estimate of future product remediation costs to Cost of products sold and a charge of $55 million related to pension settlement costs to Other expense, net.

Represents transaction costs and financing impacts associated with the acquisition of Edwards Lifesciences' Critical Care Product Group. The transaction costs are recorded in Integration, restructuring and transaction expense and the financing impacts are recorded in Interest income and Interest expense.

Represents costs recorded to Other operating expense (income), net incurred in connection with the separation of BD's former Diabetes Care business.

(5)

Represents costs incurred to develop processes and systems to establish initial compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation and the European Union In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation, which represent a significant, unusual change to the existing regulatory framework. We consider these costs to be duplicative of previously incurred costs and/or one-off costs, which are limited to a specific period of time. These expenses, which are recorded in Cost of products sold and Research and development expense, include the cost of labor, other services and consulting (in particular, research and development and clinical trials) and supplies, travel and other miscellaneous costs.

(6)

Includes certain (income) expense items which are not part of ordinary operations and affect the comparability of the periods presented. Such items may include certain product remediation costs, certain legal matters, certain investment gains and losses, certain asset impairment charges, and certain pension settlement costs. The amount in 2024 reflects the recognition of $67 million in accruals as an impact to Revenues resulting from recent developments relating to the Italian government medical device pay back legislation, as well as another legal matter, and which substantially relate to years prior to our current fiscal year. The amount in 2024 also reflects charges to Other operating expense (income), net related to legal matters, including a $175 million charge to accrue an estimated liability for the SEC investigation with respect to, among other things, certain reporting issues involving BD Alaris infusion pumps included in SEC disclosures prior to 2021, based on discussions with the SEC with respect to a potential resolution of this matter. The Company cannot anticipate the timing, scope, outcome or ultimate impact of the SEC investigation, financial or otherwise, including but not limited to what actions the SEC might pursue against the Company and/or individuals. As a result, the ultimate resolution is unknown at this time, and it is possible that the amount of the Company's liability could significantly exceed its currently accrued amount.
