Strategic vision and portfolio focus

  • Focuses on empowering healthcare providers globally with innovative clinical solutions and a balanced portfolio between general surgery and orthopedics.

  • Prioritizes high-growth, high-margin platforms such as AirSeal, Buffalo Filter, and BioBrace, with ongoing portfolio optimization and realignment toward minimally invasive and orthopedic markets.

  • Exited the GI business to concentrate on high-return categories, expecting more additions than subtractions in the future.

  • Committed to ethical operations, engaged talent, and delivering exceptional results.

  • Portfolio optimization and supply chain transformation are ongoing to support growth and shareholder returns.

Growth drivers and market opportunities

  • AirSeal targets both robotic and laparoscopic surgery, with 60% of sales from robotics and 40% from laparoscopy; laparoscopy is growing faster.

  • Buffalo Filter benefits from global smoke evacuation legislation and new product launches, with the market expected to grow from $350M to $1B.

  • BioBrace is the only FDA-cleared implant for both mechanical reinforcement and bioinductivity in soft tissue repair, with strong clinical validation and expanding indications.

  • High-growth categories include sports medicine, AirSeal, smoke evacuation, and foot & ankle, with expected mid-term revenue growth of 4% to 11% across segments.

  • Direct smoke evacuation and sports medicine are expected to deliver high single-digit to double-digit growth.

Financial performance and guidance

  • Revenue has grown from $955M in 2019 to $1,372M in 2024; 2025 guidance is $1.365B–$1.372B, and 2026 guidance ranges from $1.345B–$1.450B after GI divestiture.

  • Adjusted EPS guidance for 2025 is $4.48–$4.53; 2026 adjusted EPS is $4.25–$4.45, reflecting headwinds from divestitures and tariffs but supported by strong organic growth.

  • $150M share buyback program announced, with at least $25M allocated for buybacks in 2026; dividend suspended in favor of repurchases.

  • Strong free cash flow conversion, exceeding 100% in recent years.

  • Capital allocation focuses on organic innovation, supply chain, and opportunistic M&A, with strict acquisition criteria and potential for additional buybacks if M&A does not occur.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
