What management said

  • Today, we will discuss Baxter's fourth quarter results, along with our financial outlook for the full year 2026.
  • This morning, a press release was issued with our preliminary earnings results and updated outlook.
  • On the call, we will reference operational growth, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange, MSA revenues from Vantive, and the previously announced exit of IV Solutions from China.
  • We will also reference organic growth, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange, MSA revenues from Vantive, and any impact from future business acquisitions or divestitures.
  • Total company adjusted earnings from continuing operations were $0.44 per diluted share.
  • While responses have varied, in general, customers are waiting for additional clarity on the nature and timing of the additional corrections that we will look to deploy.
  • Margins were pressured by both an unfavorable mix of sales as well as some non-recurring items, including inventory adjustments.
  • The Healthcare Systems and Technologies segment had another quarter of consistent performance, including a contribution from the recently launched Connex 360 monitor in the Front Line Care division.
  • As I said during our last earnings call and reiterated last month, I am focused on three main priorities.
  • Most significantly, we are delayering levels of leadership, including removing the segment management layer and embedding critical functional roles directly in each of our businesses.
  • We've also taken actions within our IV Solutions business to rightsize a support footprint to align to the lower demand environment, which we believe is a new baseline in the market.
  • In Pharma, in addition to market demand softness, supply and backorder challenges have impacted revenue and driven unfavorable product mix.
