HENRY SCHEIN REPORTS THIRD QUARTER
DILUTED EPS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS OF $0.41
Provides updated 2005 EPS guidance and introduces guidance range for
Fluvirin vaccine business
MELVILLE, N.Y. - Oct. 25, 2005 - Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC), the
largest provider of healthcare products and services to office-based
practitioners in the combined North American and European markets, today
reported financial results for the quarter ended September 24, 2005. The
Company announced that, during the third quarter, a decision was reached to
divest its Hospital Supply business (see below and Exhibit A for details).
Net sales from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2005 were
$1.13 billion, an increase of 13.3% from the third quarter of 2004 (See Exhibit
B for details of sales growth). This increase includes 13.1% local currency
growth (7.2% internally generated and 5.9% from acquisitions) and 0.2% related
to foreign currency exchange. Third quarter net income from continuing
operations was $36.4 million and earnings per diluted share from continuing
operations was $0.41, both representing increases of 17.1% compared with the
prior-year quarter.
"We are very pleased with the quarter's financial results, highlighted
by record third quarter net sales with particular strength in our North American
Dental and Medical businesses," commented Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of Henry Schein.
For the quarter, Dental sales increased 15.8%, including 15.3% growth
in local currencies (8.9% internally generated and 6.4% from acquisitions) and
0.5% related to foreign currency exchange. Of the 15.3% local currency growth,
Dental consumable merchandise sales increased 12.2% (5.7% internal growth, 6.5%
acquisition growth) and Dental equipment sales and service revenues were up
26.6% (20.6% internal growth, 6.0% acquisition growth).
"We are delighted to report double-digit sales growth in our Dental
Group, which we have achieved for the past nine consecutive quarters," explained
Mr. Bergman. "We continue to gain significant market share in the North
American dental market as the result of our Privileges customer loyalty program,
strategic acquisitions, expansion of our product offering, and the investments
we have made in field sales force training.

"Our Dental business is further strengthened by our initiatives in
e-commerce and information technology, and our market leading dental practice
management software and clinical applications," continued Mr. Bergman.
Medical sales from continuing operations increased 8.4% during the
third quarter (6.8% internal growth, 1.6% acquisition growth), reflecting an
acceleration of growth from recent quarters. "Medical sales from continuing
operations for the current and prior year quarters did not include any sales of
Chiron's Fluvirin influenza vaccine," added Mr. Bergman.
The Company noted that it has entered into a three-year extension of
its agreement with Chiron Corporation (Nasdaq: CHIR). "With this agreement and
our previously announced agreement with ID Biomedical Corporation (TSX: IDB;
Nasdaq: IDBE), we estimate to have available between 10 and 15 million doses of
influenza vaccine for our customers in 2006. This will further solidify our
position as a reliable source of influenza vaccine for healthcare providers
across the country," said Mr. Bergman.
Commenting on the planned divestiture of the Hospital Supply business,
he added, "The Hospital business does not focus on our core customer, namely the
office-based practitioner, and therefore provides little or no synergies with
our core operations. This divestiture will also enhance our management team's
focus on our core businesses."
International sales increased 16.8%, including 16.7% growth in local
currencies (5.7% internally generated and 11.0% from acquisitions) and 0.1% due
to foreign currency exchange.
"Third quarter International internal growth in local currencies also
accelerated from recent quarters, and reflects particular strength in France,
Spain, Portugal, the U.K., and Australia," commented Mr. Bergman. "Total
International growth also reflects acquisitions in Australia and New Zealand, as
well as Demedis Group operations in Austria. We are pleased with our
integration accomplishments since completing the purchase of Demedis businesses
in Germany, Italy and the Benelux countries and look forward to further growth
and synergies in those markets."
Technology and Value-Added Services sales were slightly ahead of prior
year. The electronic services business continued its strong double-digit growth
trend, which was offset by lower software sales. "Our leading presence in the
practice management software arena continues to provide excellent opportunities
for sales of high-tech equipment such as digital x-ray," commented Mr. Bergman.
"These high-tech equipment sales are reported as part of our Dental equipment
sales."
Mr. Bergman noted that although the recent Gulf Coast hurricanes had a
negative impact on operations, it was estimated to be immaterial to the
Company's third quarter financial results. He added, "I am particularly proud
of the response by our Team Schein Members to the devastation across the Gulf
Coast region. As we have responded to past catastrophes, we rapidly reactivated
our disaster relief hotline for dentists, physicians and veterinarians who have
operational, logistical or financial issues. We shipped emergency medical
supplies in support of the disaster relief effort, and worked with state and
local authorities, as well as national relief agencies to expedite delivery of
these products.

"As an example, in the Houston, Texas region, local health agencies, in
anticipation of power outages during Hurricane Rita, requested Henry Schein to
retrieve and store vaccines until the storm passed," continued Mr. Bergman. "We
were, of course, willing and able to comply; and returned the vaccines safely
once the storm had abated. We also worked closely with the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention to get essential vaccines, such as tetanus and diphtheria
vaccines, to areas in need.
"In addition, from September 22 through October 9 'Tomorrow's Dental
Office - Today!,' our joint project with the American Dental Association, was
dispatched to Mississippi to help meet pressing dental needs of the area's
residents," said Mr. Bergman. "This is a fully-functional, technology-driven
dental office of the future that has been used in community outreach before,
typically in conjunction with major dental meetings where we can demonstrate to
dentists the value of this technology to their practices. In these
extraordinary circumstances, we are happy to see its capabilities put to such
worthwhile use."
Discontinued Operation
During the quarter, the Company reached a decision to divest its
Hospital Supply business. The Hospital Supply business accounted for
approximately $37 million in net sales and a loss from discontinued operations
of approximately $10 million or $0.12 per diluted share in the third quarter
(see Exhibit A). This loss includes a write-down of long-lived assets of
approximately $7 million or $0.08 per diluted share. The Company also expects
to report an additional loss from discontinued operations upon the completion of
a sale of the Hospital Supply business.
Stock Repurchase Plan
In June 2004 the Company announced a share repurchase program of up to
$100 million worth of common stock, under which 150,000 shares were repurchased
during the third quarter at an average price of $40.72 per share. The impact of
the repurchase of shares under this program on third quarter diluted EPS was
immaterial.
2005 EPS Guidance
Henry Schein expects 2005 diluted EPS from continuing operations in the
range of $1.75 to $1.77 excluding the impact of any Fluvirin(R) influenza
vaccine for the current influenza season from Chiron Corporation. This
represents 17%-18% growth over 2004 diluted EPS from continuing operations,
excluding the previously disclosed $0.10 one-time charge in 2004 related to the
Fluvirin contract.
In addition, Henry Schein currently estimates that it will receive
between 2 million and 4 million doses of Fluvirin during the fourth quarter. If
these doses are received, the Company expects incremental diluted EPS from sales
of Fluvirin vaccine of between $0.02 and $0.06 in the fourth quarter.

Henry Schein notes that all 2005 guidance does not include the impact
of expensing of stock options (per Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R)),
which has been delayed until 2006, and that all 2005 guidance is for current
continuing operations including completed acquisitions, and does not include the
impact of potential future acquisitions.
Third Quarter Conference Call Webcast
The Company will hold a conference call to discuss third quarter
financial results today, beginning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. Individual
investors are invited to listen to the conference call over the Internet through
Henry Schein's Web site at www.henryschein.com. In addition, a replay will be
available beginning shortly after the call has ended.
