• Worldwide sales from continuing operations in the third quarter totaled approximately $2.84 billion, increasing 5% on a reported basis and 2% on an operational basis.
• U.S. sales from continuing operations in the third quarter totaled approximately $1.54 billion, increasing 3% on a reported basis and declining 1% on an operational basis.
• International sales from continuing operations in the third quarter totaled approximately $1.29 billion, increasing 8% on a reported basis and 5% on an operational basis.
• On a U.S. GAAP basis, net income (loss) from continuing operations totaled ($51) million, or ($0.10) per diluted share in the third quarter.

Please see the attached schedules accompanying this press release for additional details on sales performance in the quarter, including breakouts by Baxter’s segments.

Third-Quarter 2025 Segment Results

• Medical Products & Therapies sales for the third quarter totaled approximately $1.33 billion, declining 1% on both a reported and operational basis. Performance in the quarter reflected reduced sales within the Infusion Therapies & Technologies division driven by lower infusion pump sales and softness in IV solutions, which the company believes is due to continuing post-Hurricane Helene fluid conservation efforts. This decline was partially offset by continued strong global demand for Advanced Surgery products.
• Healthcare Systems & Technologies sales for the third quarter totaled approximately $773 million, an increase of 3% on a reported basis and 2% on an operational basis. Performance in the quarter reflected continued demand for Care & Connectivity Solutions products. Growth in the Front Line Care division reflected sequential improvement across both U.S. and international markets.
• Pharmaceuticals sales for the third quarter totaled approximately $632 million, an increase of 7% on a reported basis and 7% on an operational basis. Performance in the quarter reflected continued strength in Drug Compounding and Injectables & Anesthesia products, which benefitted from increased volumes in select international markets and steady contributions from the Injectables portfolio.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures may enhance an understanding of the company's operations and may facilitate an analysis of those operations, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the company's reconciliations to corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures (which are included in the tables accompanying this release), may enhance an investor’s overall understanding of the company's past financial performance and prospects for the future. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally in financial planning, to monitor business unit performance, and, in some cases, for purposes of determining incentive compensation. This information should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Operational sales growth is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of the Kidney Care MSA not reflected in reportable segments, reflects the previously announced exit of IV solutions in China in the Medical Products & Therapies reportable segment, and is calculated on a constant currency basis, as if foreign currency exchange rates had remained constant between the prior and current periods.

Other non-GAAP financial measures included in this release and the accompanying tables (including within the tables that provide the company's detailed reconciliations to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures) are: adjusted gross margin, adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted other operating income, net, adjusted operating income, adjusted other income (expense), net, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, adjusted income tax expense (benefit), adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted income (loss) from discontinued operations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Baxter stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, adjusted diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share. Those non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of special items. For the quarters and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, special items for one or more periods included intangible asset amortization, business optimization charges, acquisition and integration costs, separation-related costs, expenses related to European medical devices regulation, certain legal matters, a goodwill impairment, investment impairments, product-related reserves, the gain on the sale of the Kidney Care business, Hurricane Helene costs, and certain tax matters. These items are excluded because they are highly variable or unusual and of a size that may substantially impact the company's reported operations for a period. Additionally, intangible asset amortization is excluded as a special item to facilitate an evaluation of current and past operating performance and is consistent with how management and the company's Board of Directors assess performance.

This release and the accompanying tables also include free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure that Baxter defines as operating cash flow less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is used by management and the company's Board of Directors to evaluate the cash generated from Baxter's operating activities each period after deducting its capital spending.

This release also includes forecasts of certain of the aforementioned non-GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis as part of the company's financial outlook for upcoming periods. Baxter calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For instance, forward-looking operational sales growth represents the company's targeted future sales growth excluding sales to Vantive under the Kidney Care MSA not reflected in reportable segments, reflects the previously announced exit of IV solutions in China in the Medical Products & Therapies reportable segment, and assumes foreign currency exchange rates remain constant in future periods. Additionally, forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes potential charges or gains that would be reflected as non-GAAP adjustments to earnings. Baxter provides forward-looking operational sales growth guidance and adjusted diluted EPS guidance because it believes that these measures provide useful information for the reasons noted above. Baxter has not provided reconciliations of forward-looking adjusted EPS guidance to forward-looking GAAP EPS guidance because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the impact of legal proceedings, future business optimization actions, separation-related costs, integration-related costs, asset impairments and unusual gains and losses, and the related amounts are unavailable without unreasonable efforts (as specified in the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K). In addition, Baxter believes that 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 financial performance.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release includes forward-looking statements concerning the company's financial results (including the outlook for fourth-quarter and full-year 2025) and operational, business development and regulatory activities. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions about many important factors, including the following, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements: the company's ability to achieve the intended benefits of its recent strategic actions, including the sale of the Kidney Care business, business strategy and development activities (including the acquisition Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. and completion of related integration activities) and cost saving initiatives, or of future long-term financial improvement goals; the impact of global economic conditions (including, among other things, changes in tariffs, taxation, trade policies and treaties, sanctions, embargos, export control restrictions, the potential for a recession, supply chain disruptions, inflation levels and interest rates, financial market volatility, banking crises, the war in Ukraine, the conflict in the Middle East and other geopolitical events, and the potential for escalation of these and other conflicts, the related economic sanctions being imposed globally in response to the conflicts and potential trade wars, global public health crises, pandemics and epidemics, or the anticipation of any of the foregoing, on the company's operations and on the company's employees, customers, suppliers, and foreign governments in countries in which the company operates and the company’s ability to identify actions to mitigate the impact of those conditions (or to realize the anticipated benefits of any such mitigating actions); demand and market acceptance risks for, and competitive pressures (including pricing) related to, new and existing products and services (including customer response to recent Novum IQ Large Volume Pump (Novum LVP) field actions and the related voluntary ship and installation hold, which may include additional returns or exchanges), challenges and reputational risks associated with converting customers to new or alternative products and challenges with accurately predicting changing customer preferences and future expenditures and inventory levels (including with respect to the impact of the Novum LVP ship and installation hold and what the company believes to be continuing fluid conservation practices) and with being able to monetize new and existing products and services, the impact of those products and services on quality and patient safety concerns, and the need for ongoing training and support for the company’s products and services; product development risks, including satisfactory clinical performance and obtaining and maintaining required regulatory approvals (including as a result of evolving regulatory requirements or the withdrawal or resubmission of any pending applications), the ability to manufacture at appropriate scale, and the general unpredictability associated with the product development cycle (which may result in monetary penalties owed to the company’s suppliers in the event the company does not place orders at levels contemplated in its contractual arrangements); future actions of, or failures to act or delays in acting by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency, or any other regulatory body or government authority (including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Department of Justice, Health Canada or the Attorney General of any state), or any product quality or patient safety issues (including those related to the company’s infusion pump category) that could delay, limit or suspend product development, manufacturing, or sale or otherwise lead to product recalls (either voluntary or required by governmental authorities), adverse regulatory site inspection reports, voluntary or official action indicated classifications, labeling changes, launch delays, warning letters, import bans, refusal of a government to grant or the government withdrawal of approvals, clearances, licenses or other marketing authorizations, denial of import certifications, sanctions, seizures, injunctions (including to halt manufacture or distribution), monetary sanctions, criminal or civil liabilities or litigation; the continuity, availability, and pricing of acceptable raw materials and component parts, the company's ability to pass some or all of any increased costs to its customers through price increases or otherwise, and the related continuity of the company's manufacturing, sterilization, supply and distribution and those of the company’s suppliers; failure to accurately forecast or achieve the company’s short- and long-term financial performance and goals, market and category growth rates, growth rates for the company's segments, customer demand and related impacts on the company’s liquidity (including with respect to increased inventory levels); the company's ability to execute on its capital allocation plans, including the company's debt repayment plans, the timing and amount of any dividends, share repurchases and divestiture proceeds; future downgrades to the company's credit ratings or ratings outlooks, or withdrawals by rating agencies from rating the company and its indebtedness, and the related impact on the company’s funding costs and liquidity; the company’s ability to finance and develop new products or services, or enhancements thereto, on commercially acceptable terms or at all; actions by tax authorities in connection with ongoing tax audits (including with respect to transfer pricing matters and the potential issuance of one or more Notice of Proposed Adjustments), the outcome of pending or future litigation (including as a result of customer or supplier disputes) and the sufficiency of any related reserves; fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates; the impact of any accounting estimates and assumptions, including with respect to goodwill, intangible assets, or other long-lived asset impairments on the company's operating results; failures with respect to the company's quality, compliance or ethics programs; our ability to attract, develop, retain and engage key employees, including as a result of organizational or other corporate changes and strategic initiatives, and the occurrence of labor disruptions resulting from labor disagreements under bargaining agreements or national trade union agreements, disputes with works councils or otherwise); inability to create additional production capacity in a timely manner or the occurrence of other manufacturing, sterilization, or supply difficulties, including as a result of natural disaster or severe weather event (such as Hurricane Helene), war, terrorism, global public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, regulatory actions, or otherwise; future actions of third parties, including third-party payors and the company’s customers and distributors (including group purchasing organizations and integrated delivery networks); breaches and breakdowns affecting the company's information technology systems or protected information, including by cyber-attack, data leakage, unauthorized access or theft, or failures of or vulnerabilities in the company's information technology systems or products; the company’s ability to effectively develop, integrate or deploy artificial intelligence, machine learning and other emerging technologies into the company’s products, services and operations in a manner that is compliant with existing and emerging regulations and consistent with evolving customer preferences; the impact of physical effects of climate change, severe storms (including Hurricane Helene) and storm-related events; changes to legislation and regulation and other governmental pressures in the United States and globally, including the cost of compliance and potential penalties for purported noncompliance thereof, including new or amended laws, rules and regulations as well as the impact of healthcare reform and its implementation, suspension, repeal, replacement, amendment, modification and other similar actions undertaken by the United States or foreign governments, including with respect to pricing, reimbursement, taxation (including taxation of income, whether with respect to current or future tax reform) and rebate policies; the company's ability to meet evolving and varied corporate responsibility expectations of the company's stakeholders, including compliance with emerging and potentially contradictory global sustainability regulations; the ability to protect or enforce the company's patents or other proprietary rights (including trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and know-how) or where the patents of third parties prevent or restrict the company's manufacture, sale, or use of affected products or technology; and other factors discussed in Baxter's most recent filings on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and other SEC filings, all of which are available on Baxter’s website. Baxter does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements unless otherwise required by the federal securities laws.

1		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 and 2024 included costs related to programs to optimize its organization and cost structure. These restructuring and business optimization costs in 2025 included costs primarily related to its initiatives to reduce its cost structure following the sale of its former Kidney Care segment and the exit of a product line at one of its manufacturing facilities. These restructuring and business optimization costs in 2024 included costs which were primarily related to its implementation of a new operating model intended to simplify and streamline its operations and better align its manufacturing and supply chain to its commercial activities, and initiatives within its Healthcare Systems & Technologies segment. The company's results of discontinued operations in 2024 included costs primarily related to inventory write-offs due to the exit of a product line and the decision to cease production of dialyzers at one of its U.S.-based manufacturing facilities.
2		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 and 2024 included integration-related items comprised of Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. (Hillrom) acquisition and integration expenses.
3		The company’s results in 2025 and 2024 included incremental costs to comply with the European Union’s medical device regulations for previously registered products, which primarily consisted of contractor costs and other direct third-party costs. The company considers the adoption of these regulations to be a significant one-time regulatory change and believes that the costs of initial compliance for previously registered products over the implementation period are not indicative of its core operating results.
4		The company's results of continuing operations in 2025 included charges related to estimates of warranty and remediation activities arising from field corrective actions across its infusion pump category and a revised estimate of warranty and remediation activities arising from a field corrective action on certain of its infusion pumps initially recorded in 2022. The company results of continuing operations in 2024 included charges related to a revised estimate of warranty and remediation activities arising from a field corrective action on certain of its infusion pumps initially recorded in 2022.
5		The company's results of continuing operations in 2025 and 2024 included charges related to Hurricane Helene. In 2025 this amount consisted of remediation, air freight and other costs. In 2024 this amount consisted of a charge related to damaged inventory and fixed assets, partially offset by a benefit related to insurance recoveries as a result of those asset write-offs.
6		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 and discontinued operations in 2024 included separation-related costs primarily related to external advisors supporting its activities related to the sale of its former Kidney Care segment.
7		The company’s results in 2024 included charges related to environmental reserves for remediation actions associated with historic operations at certain of our facilities.
8		The company's results of discontinued operations in 2025 included the final settlement of certain net working capital adjustments reducing the gain on sale of its former Kidney Care segment made in accordance with the terms of the related Equity Purchase Agreement (Kidney Care EPA).
9		The company's results of continuing operations in 2025 included an income tax expense primarily related to an increase in reserves for uncertain tax positions and a step-up in Swiss valuation allowances, partially offset by the release of valuation allowances on foreign tax credits. The company's results of discontinued operations in 2025 included an income tax benefit attributable to the allocation of reserves for uncertain tax positions to discontinued operations and indirect impacts of the carryback of the tax benefits generated by the sale of its former Kidney Care business to prior years. The company's results of continuing operations in 2024 included tax items consisting of a valuation allowance recorded to reduce the carrying amount of a tax attributable carryforward in the U.S. related to the sale of its former Kidney Care segment, partially offset by application of the intraperiod tax allocation between continuing operations and discontinued operations.

1		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 and 2024 included costs related to programs to optimize its organization and cost structure. These restructuring and business optimization costs in 2025 included costs primarily related to its initiatives to reduce its cost structure following the sale of its former Kidney Care segment and the exit of a product line at one of its manufacturing facilities. These restructuring and business optimization costs in 2024 included costs related to its implementation of a new operating model intended to simplify and streamline its operations and better align its manufacturing and supply chain to its commercial activities, and initiatives within its Healthcare Systems & Technologies. The company's results of discontinued operations in 2024 included costs primarily related to a program to centralize certain of its research and development activities into a new location and property plant and equipment impairments in connection with the transfer of a manufacturing production line as part of its initiatives to optimize its global manufacturing and supply chain organization.
2		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 and 2024 included integration-related items comprised of Hillrom acquisition and integration expenses. In 2025 these expenses reflected third-party consulting costs and the recognition of a noncash impairment of property, plant and equipment related to integration activities. In 2024 these expenses related to third-party consulting costs related to its integration of Hillrom.
3		The company’s results in 2025 and 2024 included incremental costs to comply with the European Union’s medical device regulations for previously registered products, which primarily consist of contractor costs and other direct third-party costs. The company considers the adoption of these regulations to be a significant one-time regulatory change and believes that the costs of initial compliance for previously registered products over the implementation period are not indicative of its core operating results.
4		The company's results of continuing operations in 2025 included charges related to estimates of warranty and remediation activities arising from field corrective actions across its infusion pump category and a revised estimate of warranty and remediation activities arising from a field corrective action on certain of its infusion pumps initially recorded in 2022.

This amount consisted of a charge related to damaged inventory and fixed assets, partially offset by a benefit related to insurance recoveries as a result of those asset write-offs.
6		The company’s results of continuing operations in 2025 included charges related to matters involving alleged injury from environmental exposure. The company's results from continuing operations in 2024 included charges related to environmental reserves for remediation actions associated with historic operations at certain of our facilities.

10		The company's results of discontinued operations in 2024 included a charge related to a goodwill impairment of the company's former Chronic Therapies reporting unit within its former Kidney Care segment.
11		The company's results of continuing operations in 2025 included an income tax expense primarily related to an increase in reserves for uncertain tax positions and a step-up in Swiss valuation allowances, partially offset by the release of valuation allowances on foreign tax credits and a tax benefit primarily driven by an entity classification election that it made for U.S. tax purposes, which resulted in a capital loss. The company's results of discontinued operations in 2025 included indirect impacts of the carryback of tax benefits generated by the sale of its former Kidney Care business to prior years and an income tax benefit attributable to the allocation of reserves for uncertain tax positions to discontinued operations. The company's results in 2024 included income tax items consisting of a valuation allowance recorded to reduce the carrying amount of a tax attribute carryforward in the U.S. and internal reorganization transactions related to the sale of its former Kidney Care segment.

Baxter calculates forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based on forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in GAAP financial measures. For instance, forward-looking operational sales growth represents the company’s targeted future sales growth excluding sales to Vantive under the Kidney Care MSA not reflected in reportable segments, reflects the previously announced exit of IV Solutions in China in the Medical Products & Therapies reportable segment, and assumes foreign currency exchange rates remain constant in future periods. Additionally, forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes potential charges or gains that would be reflected as non-GAAP adjustments to earnings. Baxter provides forward-looking operational sales growth guidance and adjusted diluted EPS guidance because it believes that these measures provide useful information for the reasons noted above. Baxter has not provided reconciliations of forward-looking adjusted EPS guidance to forward-looking GAAP EPS guidance because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the impact of legal proceedings, future business optimization actions, separation-related costs, integration-related costs, asset impairments and unusual gains and losses, and the related amounts are unavailable without unreasonable efforts (as specified in the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K). In addition, Baxter believes that 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 financial performance.
