Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Operating Results

Geographic Results

Segment Results

Third fiscal quarter revenue growth across the segments was driven by strong base business performance.

The BD Medical segment includes the Medication Delivery Solutions (MDS), Medication Management Solutions (MMS), and Pharmaceutical Systems (PS) business units. BD Medical revenue growth was driven by strong performance in MDS and PS.

• MDS performance reflects global competitive gains in catheters driven by strong momentum in our comprehensive vascular access management strategy despite COVID restrictions in China. Improved utilization year-over-year in the U.S. and Europe also contributed to MDS performance.

• MMS performance reflects continued strong momentum worldwide in our dispensing business driven by our connected medication management and pharmacy automation solutions. Worldwide performance in our infusion business was about flat, reflecting a similar level of demand in the U.S. for pumps under medical necessity compared to the prior year.

• PS performance reflects our strong leadership position in pre-fillable devices, supported by ongoing capacity expansion and supply availability that enabled our ability to meet increased demand for biologic drugs.

The BD Life Sciences segment includes the Integrated Diagnostic Solutions (IDS) and Biosciences (BDB) business units. BD Life Sciences performance reflects growth in the base business of 8.8% as reported and 13.2% on a currency-neutral basis and the decline in COVID-only testing revenues.

• IDS performance reflects a decline in COVID-only testing revenues, partially offset by strong growth in the base business. Base business growth was driven by continued adoption of our broader respiratory panel and leveraging the increased BD Max™ installed base, and growth in specimen management that reflects price management and continued production increases that enabled us to meet strong demand.

• BDB performance reflects continued strong demand for reagents driven by our antibody and dye strategy and continued adoption of our e-commerce platform. Strong instrument growth was driven by recent product launches and strategic procurement of critical components that enabled higher instrument placements.

The BD Interventional segment includes the Surgery, Peripheral Intervention (PI), and Urology & Critical Care (UCC) business units. BD Interventional revenue growth reflects strong performance across the segment.

• Surgery performance reflects strong growth worldwide in Advanced Repair and Reconstruction driven by continued market adoption of Phasix™ hernia resorbable scaffold and the acquisition of Tepha. Performance also reflects double-digit growth worldwide in biosurgery.

• PI performance reflects share gains driven by the return of Venovo™ to the market, continued global penetration of Rotarex™ and the acquisition of Venclose, which is expanding our focus across chronic disease settings. Growth was also aided by partial back-order recovery during the quarter. Partially offsetting this growth was a negative impact to deferrable procedures from macroeconomic factors such as labor constraints.

• UCC performance reflects continued strong demand for chronic female incontinence products in the acute care & alternative care settings. Strength in acute care was aided by back-order recovery during the quarter.

Assumptions and Outlook for Full Year Fiscal 2022

The company provided the following guidance with respect to its continuing operations for fiscal 2022.

The company raised and narrowed its full-year revenue and adjusted EPS guidance ranges.

• The company now expects fiscal year 2022 revenues to be in the range of approximately $18.75 billion to $18.83 billion compared to $18.5 billion to $18.7 billion previously announced, which reflects an increase of approximately $190 million at the mid-point.

• Revenue guidance for fiscal year 2022 now assumes base business currency-neutral revenue growth of 8.75% to 9.25% compared to 7.25% to 8.25% previously announced, which represents an increase of approximately 125 basis points, or approximately $215 million at the mid-point.

• The revenue guidance range now assumes up to $500 million in COVID-19-only diagnostic testing revenues which is an increase of up to $50 million compared to approximately $450 million previously announced.

• Based on current rates, foreign exchange would represent a reduction of approximately 225 basis points to total company revenue growth compared to approximately 200 basis points previously announced, which represents an incremental headwind of approximately $50 million.

• The company now expects fiscal year 2022 adjusted diluted EPS to be $11.28 to $11.35, compared to $11.15 to $11.30 previously announced. This reflects an increase of $0.09 at the mid-point that is driven by strong base business performance. The estimated incremental impact from foreign currency is expected to be minimal.

BD's outlook for fiscal 2022 reflects numerous assumptions about many factors that could affect its business, based on the information management has reviewed as of this date. Management will discuss its outlook and several of its assumptions on its third fiscal quarter earnings call.

The company's expected adjusted diluted EPS for fiscal 2022 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, spin related charges, and certain tax matters. BD does not attempt to provide reconciliations of forward-looking adjusted diluted non-GAAP EPS 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 and adjusted diluted EPS growth for our 2022 fiscal year after adjusting for the anticipated impact of foreign currency translation. BD believes that this adjustment allows investors to better evaluate BD's anticipated underlying earnings performance for our 2022 fiscal year in relation to our underlying 2021 fiscal year performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures/Financial Tables

This news release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These include revenue growth rates on a currency-neutral basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share, base revenue and organic revenue. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. BD management believes that the use of non-GAAP measures to adjust for items that are considered by management to be outside of BD's underlying operational results or that affect period to period comparability helps investors to gain a better understanding of our performance year-over-year, to analyze underlying trends in our businesses, to analyze our base operating results, and understand future prospects. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to measure and forecast the company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts. We believe presenting such adjusted metrics provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by BD management for its operational decision-making and for comparison for other companies within the medical technology industry. Although BD's management believes non-GAAP results are useful in evaluating the performance of its business, its reliance on these measures is limited since items excluded from such measures may have a material impact on BD's net income, earnings per share or cash flows calculated in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, management typically uses non-GAAP results in conjunction with GAAP results to address these limitations. BD strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP measures used by BD may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered replacements for, and should be read together with, the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

We present adjusted diluted earnings per share for the third fiscal quarter and the first nine months of fiscal year 2022, and the corresponding prior periods, after eliminating items we believe are not part of our ordinary operations and affect the comparability of the periods presented. We also present adjusted diluted earnings per share for the full 2021 fiscal year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share includes adjustments for the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, integration and restructuring costs, spin related charges, certain transaction gains and losses, certain legal defense and product remediation costs, certain regulatory costs, certain investment gains and losses, certain asset impairment costs, and the impact of the extinguishment of debt. In particular, current and prior-year adjusted diluted earnings per share results exclude European regulatory initiative-related costs, which represent costs incurred to develop processes and systems to establish initial compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation and the European Union In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation (collectively, the "New EU Medical Devices Regulations"), which represent a significant, unusual change to the existing regulatory framework. We consider the excluded European regulatory initiative-related costs to be duplicative of previously incurred costs and/or one-off costs related to establishing initial compliance with such regulatory regimes, and in each case are limited to a specific period of time. These expenses relate to establishing initial compliance with the New EU Medical Devices Regulations and include the cost of labor, other services and consulting (in particular, research and development and clinical trials) and supplies, travel and other miscellaneous costs. These costs were recorded in Cost of products sold and Research and development expense.

We also present revenue growth rates for the third fiscal quarter and the first nine months of fiscal year 2022 over the corresponding prior periods on a currency-neutral basis after eliminating the effect of foreign currency translation, where applicable. We also show the growth in adjusted diluted earnings per share compared to the prior year period after eliminating the impact of foreign currency translation to further enable investors to evaluate BD's underlying earnings performance compared to the prior period. We calculate foreign currency-neutral percentages by converting our current-period local currency financial results using the prior period foreign currency exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current-period results. As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of results on a foreign currency-neutral basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors' ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods.

Reconciliations of these and other non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures are included in the attached financial tables. Within the attached financial tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages and earnings per share amounts presented are calculated from the underlying amounts.
