Key points

AI summary
  1. BD said worldwide revenues rose 1.6% to $5.252 billion for the 3 months ended December 31, 2025, compared with the prior-year period. Operating cash flow for the first 3 months of fiscal 2026 was $657 million.

  2. The company paid cash dividends of $299 million to common shareholders in the first 3 months of fiscal 2026 and repurchased about $250 million of common stock. It said it expects to use about $2 billion of the cash distribution received in the Waters transaction for accelerated share repurchases, with the remainder going to debt repayments.

  3. The company said the Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business in its Life Sciences segment was separated from BD and combined with Waters Corporation on February 9, 2026. It said the historical results of the business will be reflected as discontinued operations after the separation, and the Life Sciences segment will be eliminated from reporting, leaving 4 reportable segments.

  4. BD said tariffs adversely impacted its operating expenses in Q1 of fiscal 2026. Based on tariffs currently in effect, the company expects a continued adverse impact to operating expenses for fiscal 2026 and potentially beyond, primarily on products or components imported from countries in its global supply chain that have no exemption opportunities.
