Insights

BD's Q1 FY25 performance reveals exceptional execution across multiple fronts. The 9.8% revenue growth to $5.2 billion significantly outpaced market expectations, while the 28% surge in adjusted EPS to $3.43 demonstrates powerful operational leverage and effective cost management.

The planned separation of Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions represents a pivotal strategic move that could unlock substantial shareholder value. This decision aligns with industry trends where focused, specialized entities often command higher valuations than diversified conglomerates. The separation will likely enable each entity to optimize capital allocation, accelerate innovation and pursue targeted growth strategies in their respective markets.

The aggressive $750 million share repurchase program, completed early in the fiscal year, signals management's confidence in the company's cash flow generation and underlying business strength. This capital return strategy, combined with margin expansion and increased FY25 guidance, suggests BD is successfully executing its transformation while maintaining financial discipline.

The organic growth of 3.9% is particularly noteworthy in the current macro environment, indicating strong market demand for BD's core products and successful commercialization of new innovations. The company's ability to raise guidance while absorbing currency headwinds demonstrates operational resilience and effective pricing power.

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. BD Medical performance reflects the revenue contribution from APM, which was formed upon the closing of the acquisition of Critical Care from Edwards Lifesciences on September 3, 2024. BD Medical organic revenue growth was led by MDS and MMS.

  • MDS performance reflects increased volumes and share gains in Vascular Access Management and strong performance in hypodermic products.
  • MMS performance reflects double-digit growth in Infusion driven by BD Alaris™ that was partially offset by capital seasonality and the prior-year comparisons in Dispensing Solutions and Pharmacy Automation.
  • PS performance reflects timing in Biologics and transitory market dynamics that resulted in lower demand for prefillable syringes.

The BD Life Sciences segment includes the Specimen Management (SM), Diagnostic Solutions (DS) and Biosciences (BDB) business units. BD Life Sciences revenue growth was driven by performance in SM and DS.

  • SM performance reflects broad volume strength across the BD Vacutainer™ portfolio and customer upgrades to clinically differentiated, higher-value products.
  • DS performance reflects strength in BD Kiestra™ Lab Automation and BD MAX™ IVD that was partially offset by the delayed start to the U.S. respiratory season.
  • BDB performance reflects transitory market dynamics that resulted in lower demand for research solutions in China and the U.S. as expected, partially offset by licensing revenue and double-digit growth in U.S. clinical solutions.

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

  • Surgery performance reflects double-digit growth in Infection Prevention and Phasix™ hernia resorbable scaffold.
  • PI performance reflects strong growth in the Peripheral Vascular Disease and End Stage Kidney Disease portfolios that was partially offset by the expected impact of volume-based procurement in China, primarily in our Oncology business.
  • UCC performance reflects double-digit growth in the PureWick™ franchise with continued adoption of the Male and Female portfolios.

Assumptions and Outlook for Full Year Fiscal 2025

The company provided the following guidance with respect to fiscal 2025.

The company updated its fiscal 2025 guidance to reflect strong operational performance in its fiscal first quarter and confidence in its full-year outlook. The company increased its Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance to a range of $14.30 to $14.60, which reflects growth of 10% at the midpoint. This reflects an operational increase of $0.175 compared to its previously issued guidance, which is enabling it to absorb the estimated impact of incremental translational foreign currency of $0.15.

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 first 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 are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and are 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 tomorrow for the public, investors, analysts, and news media to discuss its first quarter results. The audio webcast will be broadcast live on BD's website, www.bd.com/investors at 8 a.m. (ET) Thursday, February 6, 2025. Accompanying slides are available on BD's website, www.bd.com/investors.

Alternatively, you can dial into the replay at 800-839-2486 (domestic) and 402-220-7223 (international) through the close of business on Thursday, February 13, 2025. A confirmation number is not needed to access the replay.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures/Financial Tables
This news release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These include revenue growth rates on a currency-neutral and organic basis and adjusted diluted earnings per share. 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 diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, 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 includes adjustments for the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, integration and restructuring costs, transaction 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, prior-year adjusted diluted earnings per share 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 first quarter of fiscal year 2025 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 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.

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.
