Earnings Presentation

Advancing the world of healthTM
Basis of Presentation
All dollar amounts presented are USD ($) in millions, unless otherwise indicated, except per share figures. FXN denotes currency-neutral basis. Revenue year-over-year change comparisons are on an FXN basis unless otherwise noted.
References to "FY" refer to BD's fiscal year, which ends September 30.
Beginning October 1, 2025, the company began operating under our previously disclosed New BD segment structure that includes Medical Essentials, Connected Care, BioPharma Systems and Interventional, and a 5th Life Sciences segment comprised of Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions. Subsequent to the spin-off of the company's former Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business, which was previously the Life Sciences segment, and the combination of the business with Waters Corporation on February 9, 2026, the Life Sciences segment was eliminated, leaving the Company with four distinct, separately-managed segments. The financials discussed here and included in the earnings release and Form 10-Q have been recast to reflect this reorganization and the historical results of the Life Sciences segment are reflected as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Financial information presented in this presentation reflects BD's results on a continuing operations basis.
The BioPharma Systems segment is comprised of the Company's former Pharmaceutical Systems organizational unit. New BD refers to BD post the separation of the Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business from BD.
Guidance Considerations
The company is providing guidance for fiscal year 2026 for BD which reflects the separation of its Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business and combination with Waters Corp., which closed on February 9, 2026. All guidance metrics provided reflect the expected performance of BD only for full year fiscal 2026 as the separated business has been accounted for as discontinued operations. BD's outlook for full year fiscal 2026 reflects numerous assumptions about many factors that could affect its business, based on the information management has reviewed as of this date.
Tariff commentary is based on tariff policies in effect as of May 6, 2026. International trade policies, trade restrictions and tariffs are rapidly evolving and there can be no assurance as to how the landscape may change and what the ultimate impact on our guidance and results of operations will be.
Guidance does not contemplate a more significant escalation of macro complexity. Effective tax rate guidance assumes no major legislative or regulatory changes; it is not unusual for the rate to fluctuate quarterly given timing of discrete items. Estimated full year foreign currency impact reflects actual rates to date and current spot rates for the remainder of the year.
The company's expected adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted operating margin for fiscal 2026 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, separation-related costs, and certain tax matters. BD does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking adjusted diluted non-GAAP EPS and adjusted operating margin 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 substantial impact on GAAP measures of BD's financial performance. We also present our estimated revenue growth for our 2026 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 revenue performance for our 2026 fiscal year in relation to our underlying 2025 fiscal year performance.
Market and Industry Data
This presentation includes estimates regarding market and industry data that BD prepared based on management's knowledge and experience in the industry in which BD operates, together with information obtained from various sources, including publicly available information, industry reports and publications. In presenting this information, BD has made certain assumptions that BD believes to be reasonable based on such data and other similar sources and on BD's knowledge of, and BD's experience to date in, the industry in which BD operates. While such information is believed to be reliable for the purposes used herein, no representations are made as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and BD takes no responsibility for such information.

Supplemental Reconciliation - Revenues by Business Segments and Units
For the Three Months Ended March 31, (Unaudited; $ in millions)
Effective October 1, 2025, the Company reorganized its organizational units into five distinct, separately-managed segments, which were based on the nature of the Company's product and service offerings. Subsequent to the spin-off of the company's former Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business (which was previously the Life Sciences segment) and the combination of the business with Waters on February 9, 2026, the Life Sciences segment was eliminated, leaving the Company with four distinct, separately-managed segments. Prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the reorganization on a continuing operations basis.
The BioPharma Systems segment is comprised of the Company's former Pharmaceutical Systems organizational unit.

Supplemental Reconciliation - Reported Diluted EPS to Adjusted Diluted EPS
For the Three Months Ended March 31,
(Unaudited)
Includes amortization and other adjustments related to the purchase accounting for acquisitions.
Represents costs associated with integration and restructuring activities. Restructuring costs for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect non-cash asset impairment charges of $450 million across all reportable segments based upon the Company's commitment to exit certain operational activities and projects which no longer align with and facilitate its current operational strategy, Excellence Unleashed. These exit actions are aimed at simplifying the Company's operations and aligning resources behind its most value-creating platforms. The impairment charges are primarily reflected as decreases of $238 million within Property, plant and equipment, net, and $134 million within Goodwill and other intangibles, net, on the Company's March 31, 2026 condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Represents costs recorded to Other operating expense, net, incurred in connection with the separation of our former Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business and the combination of the business with Waters.
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 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflects charges of $42 million recorded to Cost of products sold to adjust the estimate of future product remediation costs, charges of $52 million recorded to Other operating expense, net, related to various legal matters, and a charge of $25 million to Other expense, net related to pension settlement costs. The amount for the three months ended March 31, 2025 reflects a charge of $76 million recorded to Cost of products sold to adjust the estimate of future product remediation costs and charges of $32 million recorded to Other operating expense, net, related to various legal matters.
The amount in 2026 represents the exclusion of share equivalents associated with share-based plans from the reported diluted shares outstanding calculation because such equivalents would have been antidilutive due to the net loss incurred during the period. The adjusted diluted average shares outstanding (in thousands) were 281,674.
