DUBLIN, IRELAND - (November 6, 2024) - STERIS plc (NYSE: STE) (“STERIS” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2025 second quarter ended September 30, 2024. Total revenue from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased 7% to $1.3 billion compared with $1.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Constant currency organic revenue from continuing operations for the second quarter increased 7%.

“We are pleased with our second quarter and first half results,” said Dan Carestio, President and CEO of STERIS. “The diversified nature of our business segments continues to prove beneficial to our performance. We are reiterating our full year outlook for fiscal 2025.”

Second Quarter Results from Continuing Operations

As reported, net income for the second quarter was $150.2 million or $1.51 per share, compared with net income of $119.8 million or $1.20 per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $212.2 million or $2.14 per diluted share, compared with the previous year’s second quarter of $184.9 million or $1.86 per diluted share.

Healthcare revenue as reported grew 9% in the quarter to $944.2 million compared with $870.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. This performance reflected 12% improvement in consumable revenue, 14% growth in service revenue, and a 2% decline in capital equipment revenue. Constant currency organic revenue increased 7% for the quarter compared with the prior year. Healthcare operating income was $228.0 million compared with $204.1 million in last year’s second quarter. The increase in operating income was primarily due to improved volume, price and productivity.

Fiscal 2025 second quarter revenue for Applied Sterilization Technologies (AST) increased 9% as reported to $256.7 million compared with $235.1 million in the same period last year. This performance reflected 6% growth in service revenue and a significant increase in capital equipment revenue. Constant currency organic revenue in the quarter increased 9%. Segment operating income was $109.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared with operating income of $110.8 million in the same period last year. The operating income decline compared with the prior year reflects, among other things, increased labor and energy costs and a loss incurred on a large capital equipment sale.

Life Sciences second quarter revenue as reported decreased 4% to $127.9 million compared with $133.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, due to the divestiture of the CECS business on April 1, 2024, which was primarily service revenue. This performance reflected 21% growth in consumable revenue offset by a 35% decline in capital equipment revenue and 14% decline in service revenue. Constant currency organic revenue increased 3% in the quarter compared with the prior year. Reflecting improvement in price and favorable mix, operating income increased to $53.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared with $50.3 million in the prior year’s second quarter.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operations for the first half of fiscal 2025 was $554.5 million, compared with $427.2 million in fiscal 2024. Free cash flow for the first half of fiscal 2025 was $344.5 million compared with $284.7 million in

the prior year period. The increase in free cash flow during the period was driven primarily by the growth in earnings and improved working capital.

Fiscal 2025 Outlook Reiterated

G1For fiscal 2025, the Company continues to expect as reported revenue to increase 6.5-7.5%. Based on forward rates through March 31, 2025, currency is expected to be slightly favorable to revenue in fiscal 2025. G2Constant currency organic revenue from continuing operations is anticipated to increase 6-7%. G3Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations is anticipated to be in the range of $9.05 to $9.25 compared with $8.20 in adjusted earnings from continuing operations in fiscal 2024. G4The fiscal 2025 outlook assumes an effective tax rate of approximately 23%. G5Capital expenditures are anticipated to be approximately $360 million and G6free cash flow is expected to be approximately $700 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income, adjusted income from operations, free cash flow, adjusted EPS and constant currency organic revenue are non-GAAP measures that may be used from time to time and should not be considered replacements for U.S. GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this release with the intent of providing greater transparency to supplemental financial information used by management and the Board of Directors in their financial analysis and operational decision making. These amounts are disclosed so that the reader has the same financial data that management uses with the belief that it will assist investors and other readers in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing the underlying performance of our operations for the periods presented.

The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered along with our U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure.

Adjusted net income, adjusted EPS and adjusted income from operations exclude the amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations, acquisition and divestiture related transaction costs and gains or losses, integration costs related to acquisitions, tax restructuring costs, and certain other unusual or non-recurring items. STERIS believes this measure is useful because it excludes items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provides a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses.

The Company defines free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property, plant, equipment and intangibles, plus proceeds from the sale of property, plant, equipment, and intangibles. STERIS believes that free cash flow is a useful measure of the Company’s ability to fund future principal debt repayments and growth outside of core operations, pay cash dividends, and repurchase ordinary shares.

To measure the percentage organic revenue growth, the Company removes the impact of significant acquisitions and divestitures that affect the comparability and trends in revenue. To measure the percentage constant currency organic revenue growth, the impact of changes in currency exchange rates and acquisitions and divestitures that affect the comparability and trends in revenue are removed. The impact of changes in currency exchange rates is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average currency exchange rates.

Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported sales, gross profit, operating income, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with U.S. GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of the business. The Company strongly encourages investors and shareholders to review its financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This release and the referenced conference call may contain statements concerning certain trends, expectations, forecasts, estimates, or other forward-looking information affecting or relating to STERIS or its industry, products or activities that are intended to qualify for the protections afforded “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other laws and regulations.

The following table presents a financial measure which is considered to be "non-GAAP financial measures" under Securities Exchange Commission rules. Free cash flow is defined by the Company as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property, plant, equipment and intangibles (capital expenditures) plus proceeds from the sale of property, plant, equipment and intangibles. The Company uses free cash flow as a measure to gauge its ability to pay cash dividends, fund growth outside of core operations, fund future debt principal repayments, and repurchase shares. STERIS's calculation of free cash flows may vary from other companies.
