CONMED Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

CONMED Corporation (NYSE: CNMD) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

  • Sales of $342.3 million increased 3.1% year-over-year as reported and 2.9% in constant currency.
  • Domestic revenue increased 2.8% year-over-year.
  • International revenue increased 3.4% year-over-year as reported and 2.9% in constant currency.
  • Diluted net earnings per share (GAAP) were $0.69, compared to diluted net earnings per share (GAAP) of $0.96 in the second quarter of 2024.
  • Adjusted diluted net earnings per share(1) were $1.15, compared to adjusted diluted net earnings per share of $0.98 in the second quarter of 2024.

“We are encouraged by our second quarter performance as we focused on building a stronger operational foundation,” commented Patrick J. Beyer, CONMED’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to strengthen our supply chain operations with a focus on turning this into an area of strength within CONMED. We remain very confident in the long-term potential of our four key growth drivers and the solid foundation for sustained revenue and earnings growth that they provide.”

2025 Outlook

Based on current foreign currency exchange rates, the Company now expects revenue currency headwinds to be immaterial, compared to 50 to 70 basis points of headwind previously. As a result of the Company’s updated foreign currency expectations and its second quarter performance, full-year reported revenue is now expected to be between $1.356 billion and $1.378 billion, compared to the prior guidance range of between $1.350 billion and $1.378 billion.

The Company now expects full-year adjusted diluted net earnings per share(2) in the range of $4.40 to $4.55, with foreign currency estimated to be a headwind of approximately 10 cents. This is compared to its prior range of $4.31 to $4.46, with foreign currency then estimated to be a headwind between 10 and 15 cents.

This updated guidance includes the effects of recent tariff announcements, which the Company estimates would result in a negative impact to EPS of approximately $0.09 in the second half of 2025.

Supplemental Financial Disclosures

(1) A reconciliation of reported diluted net earnings per share to adjusted diluted net earnings per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, appears below.

(2) Information reconciling forward-looking adjusted diluted net earnings per share to the comparable GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the company without unreasonable effort, as discussed below.

The Company’s management will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss its second quarter 2025 results.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release and associated conference call may contain forward-looking statements based on certain assumptions and contingencies that involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results, performance, or trends to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements herein or in previous disclosures. For example, in addition to general industry and economic conditions, factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to the risk factors discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the full year ended December 31, 2024, listed under the heading Forward-Looking Statements in the Company’s most recently filed Form 10-Q and other risks and uncertainties, which may be detailed from time to time in reports filed by CONMED with the SEC. Any and all forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and relate to the Company’s performance on a going-forward basis. The Company believes that all forward-looking statements made by it have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs or projections as expressed in the forward-looking statements will actually occur or prove to be correct.

Supplemental Information - Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company supplements the reporting of its financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including percentage sales growth in constant currency; adjusted gross profit; cost of sales excluding specified items; adjusted selling and administrative expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted interest expense; adjusted other expense; adjusted income tax expense; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net earnings per share (EPS). The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist investors and shareholders in understanding its financial results and assessing its prospects for future performance. Management believes percentage sales growth in constant currency and the other adjusted measures described above are important indicators of its operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, its core operating results and provide a baseline for analyzing trends in the Company’s underlying business. Further, the presentation of EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement that management considers useful for measuring aspects of the Company’s cash flow. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for reviewing the operating results and analyzing potential future business trends in connection with its budget process and bases certain management incentive compensation on these non-GAAP financial measures.

Net sales on a constant currency basis is a non-GAAP measure. The Company analyzes net sales on a constant currency basis to better measure the comparability of results between periods. To measure percentage sales growth in constant currency, the Company removes the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates that affect the comparability and trend of net sales. To measure earnings performance on a consistent and comparable basis, the Company excludes certain items that affect the comparability of operating results and the trend of earnings. These adjustments are irregular in timing, may not be indicative of past and future performance and are therefore excluded to allow investors to better understand underlying operating trends.

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, cost of sales, selling and administrative expenses, operating income, interest expense, other expense, income tax expense, effective income tax rate, net income and diluted net earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures above, provide a more complete understanding of the business. The Company strongly encourages investors and shareholders to review its financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of our expected diluted net earnings per share to expected adjusted diluted net earnings per share as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty and without unreasonable effort the impact and timing of acquisition, integration and other charges. The financial impact of these items is uncertain and is dependent on various factors, including timing, and could be material to our consolidated condensed statements of income.
