Medline Reports Second Quarter and First Six Months 2026 Results
Rhea-AI Summary
Medline (Nasdaq: MDLN) reported second quarter 2026 net sales of $7.7 billion, up 11.6% year over year, with Organic Sales up 11.5%. Net income fell 58.3% to $139 million, mainly due to $336 million in losses from a fire at the Tracy, California distribution center before expected insurance recoveries, along with higher operating expenses and cost of goods sold.
Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA rose 13.4% to $1.06 billion, helped by a net $243 million IEEPA tariff refund benefit, including $332 million of refunds and $89 million of accrued customer repayments. For the first six months, net sales increased 11.1% to $15.0 billion, net income declined 42.3% to $378 million, and Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.9% to $1.84 billion. Net cash from operating activities was $1.1 billion and Free Cash Flow was $920 million.

End Notes and Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain amounts and percentages presented in this press release have a rounding element. As a result, the sum of the components may not equal the totals due to rounding.
| (1) | Organic Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Net Leverage are non-GAAP financial measures. See discussion of these measures and reconciliations to GAAP at the end of this press release for more information. |
| (2) | Guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and Organic Sales is provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of such items impacting comparability, including, but not limited to, inventory-related adjustments, stock-based compensation, litigation (gains) charges, net, transaction-related costs, the impact of currency, and other non-core (gains) charges, among other items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future adjustments, which could be significant, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort. |
| (3) | Based on our 2025 net sales relative to the publicly reported net sales of med-surg products by companies that are both med-surg manufacturers and distributors. |
| (4) | Total new customer signings refers to the estimated annual contract value of all new contracts entered into by new customers or by existing customers who are expanding their relationship with Medline, excluding renewals and extensions. |
Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts. Words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “foreseeable,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potentially,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” or “would,” or similar conditional or future expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to the Company’s industry, business strategy, costs, and cost savings, goals and expectations, market position, future operations, margins, profitability, annual guidance, and other financial and operating information. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to various risks, uncertainties, and changes in circumstances, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially.
Factors that may cause actual results to differ from expected results include, but are not limited to inherent risks in the Company’s global operations; the Company’s ability to derive fully the anticipated benefits from its existing or future acquisitions, joint ventures, investments, dispositions, or other strategic transactions; consolidation in the healthcare industry; competition and accelerating pricing pressure and changes in technology; changes to the U.S. and global healthcare environments; increases in shipping costs or service issues with the Company’s third-party shippers; significant challenges or delays in the Company’s sourcing of new products and technologies; the Company’s concentration in and dependence on certain healthcare provider customers and Group Purchasing Organizations; the Company’s dependence on the proper functioning of its critical facilities and distribution networks, and the impact of events outside its control, including fires and other disruptions affecting such facilities or networks, such as the Tracy facility fire; quality problems, recalls, product liability claims, and regulatory actions by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; the Company’s failure to establish and maintain Prime Vendor relationships; increased pressure to maintain or decrease the price of the Company’s goods and services; failure by or loss of a third-party manufacturer or supplier or other manufacturing or supply-related impacts; the Company’s reliance on the proper function, security, and availability of its information technology systems and data, as well as those of third parties throughout its global supply chain and the impact of a breach, cyber-attack, or other disruption to these systems or data; the Company’s ability to comply with extensive and complex laws and governmental regulations and the cost of any adverse regulatory action; the Company’s compliance with complex and rapidly evolving data privacy, security and data protection laws and regulations; the Company’s use or its third-party service providers’ or business partners’ use of artificial intelligence, automated decision-making and machine learning technologies and the evolving regulatory framework in this area; the Company’s ability to comply with laws and regulations relating to reimbursement of healthcare goods and services; uncertain global and domestic macro-economic and political conditions, including as a result of global geopolitical conflicts and tensions, such as the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East; the Company’s substantial indebtedness, its ability to satisfy its debt obligations, and the significant operating and financial restrictions on the Company’s subsidiaries imposed by the Company’s debt agreements; the dual class structure of the Company’s common stock; the volatility of the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock; and other factors.
The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update, revise, or withdraw any forward-looking statement in this press release, except as required by applicable law or regulation.
The Company uses its investor relations website at ir.medline.com, press releases, public conference calls and webcasts, and social media as routine channels of distribution to communicate important, and often material, information about Medline to investors and the public, including information about its financial performance and results, analyst and investor presentations, investor days, products, solutions, sustainability initiatives, and corporate governance practices. You are encouraged to follow these channels, in addition to our SEC filings, for timely information about the Company. The information on the Company’s websites is not part of this press release and is not incorporated by reference into any filings the Company makes with the SEC.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this press release should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
To supplement the financial information provided, the Company has presented Organic Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Net Leverage, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define these non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not substitutes for their comparable GAAP financial measures, such as net income/(loss), net income margin, diluted earnings per share, net cash from operating activities, net sales, or other measures prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in comparing the Company’s performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision making by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s ongoing operating performance. The Company believes Organic Sales, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS provide important comparability of ongoing operating performance, allowing investors and management to assess the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis. The Company believes Free Cash Flow and Net Leverage provide a measure of the Company’s core operating performance, the cash-generating capabilities of the Company’s business operations, and are factors used in determining the Company’s borrowing capacity and the amount of cash available for debt repayments, acquisitions, and other corporate purposes.
Management believes that presenting the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s results. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to those measures, provides investors with additional understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business than could be obtained absent these disclosures.
Definitions
Organic Sales is defined as net sales excluding, when they occur, the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and changes in foreign exchange rates from the net sales changes. The changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the net sales changes are calculated by translating current period GAAP results at the prior period foreign currency exchange rates and comparing these amounts to the current period GAAP results at the current period foreign currency exchange rates.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) inventory-related adjustments, (v) stock-based compensation, (vi) litigation (gains) charges, net, (vii) transaction-related costs, and (viii) other non-core (gains) charges. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.
Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) intangible asset amortization, (ii) inventory-related adjustments, (iii) stock-based compensation, (iv) litigation (gains) charges, net, (v) transaction-related costs, (vi) other non-core (gains) charges, and (vii) tax impacts related to non-GAAP adjustments, noncontrolling interests conversion, and retained tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) benefits. Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by adjusted weighted-average number of common stock, diluted. The adjusted weighted shares calculation assumes the impact of certain antidilutive securities that were excluded from the U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by/(used for) operating activities less net capital expenditures. The use of this non-GAAP measure does not imply or represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-discretionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure.
Net Leverage is defined as net debt (total debt less cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments) divided by Adjusted EBITDA.
