Orthopaedics 9.1  0.4  8.7  0.1  8.6 
Total 9.4  % 0.4  % 9.0  %   % 9.0  %
“We made significant progress in our recovery from the cyber incident, delivering strong growth in sales, earnings per share and operating cash flow in the second quarter,” said Kevin A. Lobo, Chair and CEO. “As we have seen in the past, the resilience of our teams when faced with challenges was once again on display. With our steady cadence of innovation and disciplined operational execution, we enter the second half of 2026 with regained momentum and remain confident in our ability to grow at the high end of MedTech.”
Sales Analysis
Consolidated net sales of $6.6 billion increased 9.4% in the quarter and 9.0% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 9.0% in the quarter from increased unit volume.
MedSurg and Neurotechnology net sales of $3.6 billion increased 9.7% in the quarter and 9.2% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 9.2% in the quarter including 9.1% from increased unit volume and 0.1% from higher prices.
Orthopaedics net sales of $3.0 billion increased 9.1% in the quarter and 8.7% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 8.6% in the quarter from increased unit volume.
Earnings Analysis
Reported net earnings of $1.3 billion increased 44.3% in the quarter. Reported net earnings per diluted share of $3.30 increased 44.1% in the quarter. Reported gross profit margin and reported operating income margin were 68.3% and 25.2% in the quarter. Reported net earnings include certain items, such as charges for acquisition and integration-related activities, the amortization of purchased intangible assets, structural optimization and other special charges, goodwill and other impairments, costs to comply with certain medical device regulations, recall-related matters, regulatory and legal matters and tax matters. Excluding the aforementioned items, adjusted gross profit margin(1) was 66.0% in the quarter, and adjusted operating income margin(1) was 27.4% in the quarter. Adjusted net earnings(1) of $1.4 billion increased 17.6% in the quarter. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share(1) of $3.69 increased 17.9% in the quarter.
2026 Outlook
We are narrowing our full year 2026 guidance and now expect organic net sales growth(2) in the range of 8.3% to 9.3% and adjusted net earnings per diluted share(2) in the range of $14.95 to $15.10. Our sales guidance includes a modestly positive pricing impact. Additionally, foreign exchange is expected to have a slightly favorable impact on both sales and adjusted net earnings per diluted share(2) should rates hold near current levels.
(1) A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures: gross profit margin, operating income and operating income margin, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, and other important information accompanies this press release.
(2) We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of our expected net sales growth to expected organic net sales growth as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort the impact and timing of acquisitions and divestitures and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of our expected net earnings per diluted share to expected adjusted net earnings per diluted share as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort the impact and timing of structural optimization and other special charges, acquisition-related expenses and the outcome of certain regulatory, legal and tax matters. The financial impact of these items is uncertain and is dependent on various factors, including timing, and could be material to our Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Note: In the first quarter 2026 we announced a change in our organizational structure. Our new Ortho Tech business combines the orthopaedic instruments portfolio (Orthopaedic Instruments) from Instruments with Other Orthopaedics. In addition, Neuro Cranial and the spine enabling technologies portfolio (Enabling Technologies) from Other Orthopaedics were combined with the remaining Instruments business to align with our internal reporting structure. Ortho Tech includes sales related to Orthopaedic Instruments of $523 and $501 and Other Orthopaedics of $194 and $148 for the three months 2026 and 2025. For the six months 2026 and 2025 Ortho Tech includes sales related to Orthopaedic Instruments of $1,012 and $985 and Other Orthopaedics of $351 and $281. Instruments includes sales related to Neuro Cranial of $681 and $616 and Enabling Technologies of $28 and $34 for the three months 2026 and 2025. For the six months 2026 and 2025 Instruments includes sales related to Neuro Cranial of $1,287 and $1,179 and Enabling Technologies of $54 and $63. We have reflected these changes in all historical periods presented.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including: percentage sales growth in constant currency; percentage organic sales growth; adjusted gross profit; adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses; adjusted research, development and engineering expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted other income (expense), net; adjusted income taxes; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net earnings; and adjusted net earnings per diluted share (Diluted EPS). We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to assist investors and shareholders in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. Management believes percentage sales growth in constant currency and the other adjusted measures described above are important indicators of our operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for reviewing the operating results of reportable business segments and analyzing potential future business trends in connection with our budget process and bases certain management incentive compensation on these non-GAAP financial measures.
To measure percentage sales growth in constant currency, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates that affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage sales growth in constant currency is calculated by translating current and prior year results at the same foreign currency exchange rate. To measure percentage organic sales growth, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions and divestitures, which affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage organic sales growth is calculated by translating current year and prior year results at the same foreign currency exchange rates excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. To measure earnings performance on a consistent and comparable basis, we exclude certain items that affect the comparability of operating results and the trend of earnings. The income tax effect of each adjustment was determined based on the tax effect of the jurisdiction in which the related pre-tax adjustment was recorded. These adjustments are irregular in timing and may not be indicative of our past and future performance.
Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported sales growth, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, research, development and engineering expenses, operating income, other income (expense), net, income taxes, effective income tax rate, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The following reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding used in the calculation of adjusted net earnings per diluted share are the same as those used in the calculation of reported net earnings per diluted share for the respective period.
