HENRY SCHEIN NEWS RELEASE Henry Schein, Inc. - 135 Duryea Road - Melville, New York 11747 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HENRY SCHEIN REPORTS RECORD FIRST QUARTER RESULTS Diluted EPS from continuing operations increases 20% to $0.48 MELVILLE, N.Y. - May 8, 2007 - 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 March 31, 2007. Net sales for the first quarter of 2007 were $1.3 billion, an increase of 14.8% from the first quarter of 2006. This increase includes 12.4% local currency growth (4.2% internally generated and 8.2% from acquisitions net of divestiture) and 2.4% related to foreign currency exchange. (See Exhibit A for details of sales growth.) Net income and income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2007 were $43.5 million or $0.48 per diluted share. First quarter 2007 income and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were up 22.1% and 20.0%, respectively, compared with the prior-year first quarter. There was no impact of discontinued operations in the current quarter. "Once again our quarterly results featured double-digit sales growth in each of our business groups as we continued to gain market share across the board," said Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein. "Also, operating margin expanded as we continue to leverage a growing top line across our established infrastructure and focus on selling higher- margin products." For the first quarter, Dental sales increased 16.7%, including 16.9% growth in local currencies (9.9% internally generated and 7.0% from acquisitions) offset by a 0.2% decline related to foreign currency exchange. Of the 16.9% local currency growth, Dental consumable merchandise sales increased 14.6% (6.2% internal growth and 8.4% acquisition growth) and Dental equipment sales and service revenues were up 25.6% (23.5% internal growth and 2.1% acquisition growth). "Strong market-share gains in our Dental Group were led by equipment sales and service growth, which reflects continued strength in basic equipment sales and strong demand for high-tech - more -products as dentists strive for greater practice efficiencies and patient satisfaction," commented Mr. Bergman. "The dental markets we serve remain strong, based on our positive experience with customers and manufacturers at two large dental trade shows during the quarter." Medical sales increased 11.3% during the first quarter (1.9% decline in internal sales growth offset by 13.2% acquisition growth net of divestiture). The Company estimates that its Medical Group internal sales growth, excluding sales of all pharmaceutical products, represents a market share gain for the quarter. "In April we combined our major physician brands under the Henry Schein Medical brand, with the goal of leveraging our unique strengths in field sales, telesales, telemarketing and direct marketing," added Mr. Bergman. "While we are confident in the long-term benefit of this initiative to our customers and to our Company, Medical Group results over the next several quarters will reflect the elimination of duplicate costs and may reflect some sales erosion as well." For the quarter, International sales increased 15.1%, including 6.1% growth in local currencies (1.1% internally generated and 5.0% from acquisitions), and 9.0% related to foreign currency exchange. "International sales growth was negatively impacted by the timing of the International Dental Show (IDS) in Germany, the world's largest dental trade show which was held near the end of the first quarter, among other factors," commented Mr. Bergman. Technology and Value-Added Services sales increased 24.6% during the first quarter of 2007, including 24.7% growth in local currencies (17.7% internally generated and 7.0% acquisition growth) offset by a 0.1% decline related to foreign currency exchange. "Our Technology and Value-Added Services sales growth for the quarter was fueled by strong growth in electronic services, software and financial services revenues," stated Mr. Bergman. Stock Repurchase Plan Henry Schein announced that it repurchased 639,100 shares of common stock during the first quarter of 2007 at an average price of $48.02 per share. Approximately $140 million remains authorized for future common stock repurchases. The impact of the repurchase of shares under this program on first quarter diluted EPS was immaterial. 2007 EPS Guidance Henry Schein affirms 2007 financial guidance, as follows: o 2007 diluted EPS is expected to be $2.51 to $2.57. This represents an increase of 23% to 26% compared with 2006 diluted EPS from continuing operations. 2 -more-
o This 2007 diluted EPS guidance includes Henry Schein's expectations that it will distribute approximately 20 million doses of influenza vaccine during the year. o We expect mid-teens diluted EPS growth in the second quarter of 2007. o 2007 diluted EPS guidance is for current continuing operations including completed or previously announced acquisitions, and does not include the impact of potential future acquisitions, if any.
