Highlights include the Thermo Scientific™ Orbitrap™ Astral™ Zoom mass spectrometer, Thermo Scientific™ Krios™ 5 Cryo-TEM, Thermo Scientific™ Vulcan™ Automated Lab, and the bench-scale Thermo Scientific™ 5L DynaDrive™ Single-Use Bioreactor. During the fourth quarter we launched the Thermo Scientific™ Helios™ MX1 Plasma Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope, a fully automated semiconductor analysis system designed to accelerate time-to-data for yield ramp and fab process control, and we received FDA approval for the Ion Torrent™ Oncomine™ Dx Target Test as a companion diagnostic for HYRNUO™, Bayer's targeted therapy for patients with HER2-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, as well as U.S. 510(k) clearance for the EXENT System, a first-of-its-kind automated platform to aid in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma.

Strengthened our industry-leading commercial engine and deepened our trusted partner status with customers. We continued to scale adoption of our Accelerator™ Drug Development solution – our integrated CDMO and CRO offering, securing meaningful wins across our biopharma services businesses. We also entered into a technology alliance agreement with the Chan Zuckerberg Institute for Advanced Biological Imaging to advance new technologies enabling researchers to better visualize human cells. During the fourth quarter, we established a strategic collaboration with OpenAI to expand the use of artificial intelligence across our operations and our products and services to accelerate scientific breakthroughs, enhance drug development and drive greater productivity; and expanded our bioprocess design centers in Asia, including opening a new site in India, to further support pharma and biotech customers with process development and scale-up.

Continued to successfully execute our capital deployment strategy, deploying approximately $16.5 billion in 2025. This included $13 billion committed to M&A. We completed the acquisition of our Filtration and Separation business from Solventum, an excellent complement to our bioproduction capabilities, and Sanofi's Ridgefield, New Jersey, sterile fill-finish site, expanding our U.S. capacity for drug product manufacturing capacity. Then in the fourth quarter, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire Clario, a leading provider of endpoint data solutions for clinical trials, adding high-growth capabilities to enhance clinical insights for our pharma and biotech customers and further accelerate the digital transformation of clinical research. Additionally, during the year we returned $3.6 billion of capital to shareholders through stock buybacks and dividends.

"Thanks to our exceptional team, we delivered a strong finish to 2025, reflecting outstanding execution and the continued strength of our proven growth strategy," said Marc N. Casper, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Fisher Scientific. "Throughout the year we effectively navigated the external environment and leveraged our PPI Business System to enable excellent operational performance. It was also a very active year for capital deployment, as we advanced our strategy and added exciting new capabilities that further strengthen our long-term competitive position."

Casper added, "We enter 2026 from a position of strength. Our growth strategy is resonating with customers, positioning us for continued share gain, and our PPI Business System provides a strong foundation to continue our excellent operational performance. Together, this positions us well to deliver on our 2026 objectives as we create value for our stakeholders and build an even brighter future for our company."

Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures such as organic revenue growth, which is reported revenue growth, excluding the impacts of acquisitions/divestitures and the effects of currency translation. We report these measures because Thermo Fisher management believes that in order to understand the company's short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of acquisitions/divestitures, and/or foreign currency translation on revenues. Thermo Fisher management uses these measures to forecast and evaluate the operational performance of the company as well as to compare revenues of current periods to prior periods.

We report adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, helps investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts the company's core operating performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods, forecasts, and to the performance of our competitors. Such measures are also used by management in their financial and operating decision-making and for compensation purposes. To calculate these measures we exclude, as applicable:

Certain transaction-related costs, including charges for the sale of inventories revalued at the date of acquisition, significant transaction-related third-party costs, changes in estimates of contingent acquisition-related consideration, and other costs associated with obtaining short-term financing commitments for pending/recent acquisitions. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.

Costs/income associated with restructuring activities and large-scale abandonments of product lines, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We exclude these costs because we believe that the costs related to restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.

Equity in earnings/losses of unconsolidated entities; impairments of long-lived assets; and certain other gains and losses that are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, including gains/losses on investments, the sale of businesses, product lines, and real estate, significant litigation-related matters, curtailments/settlements of pension plans, and the early retirement of debt. We exclude these items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

The expense associated with the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of up to 20 years. Exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.

The noncontrolling interest and tax impacts of the above items and the impact of significant tax audits or events (such as changes in deferred taxes from enacted tax rate/law changes), the latter of which we exclude because they are outside of our normal operations and difficult to forecast accurately for future periods.

We report free cash flow, which is operating cash flow less net capital expenditures, to provide a view of the continuing operations' ability to generate cash for use in acquisitions and other investing and financing activities. The company also uses this measure as an indication of the strength of the company. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.

Thermo Fisher Scientific does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort items such as the timing and amount of future restructuring actions, transaction-related charges as well as gains or losses from sales of real estate and businesses, the early retirement of debt and the outcome of legal proceedings. The timing and amount of these items are uncertain and could be material to Thermo Fisher Scientific's results computed in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures of Thermo Fisher Scientific's results of operations and cash flows included in this press release are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for Thermo Fisher Scientific's results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the tables above.
