Henry Schein earnings date
MyStockButler's October 2026 analysis: Henry Schein's next results are expected on November 3, 2026. The one thing to watch is whether Henry Schein's internal sales growth, outsourcing savings and cash after investment make the plan easier to fund.
What has Henry Schein guided for 2026?
Management also reaffirmed a $125 million annual operating-income improvement run rate by the end of 2026. Operating income is profit from operations before interest and tax; a run rate is the annual pace reached at a particular moment. Reaching that pace late in the year does not mean the company earns the full benefit during the year. Nor does adjusted, or non-GAAP, profit automatically equal cash, because restructuring and transition costs may still be paid.
| The period guided | Low | High | The date it was given | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 non-GAAP diluted EPS | Year to Dec 2026 | 5.29 | 5.39 | Aug 4, 2026 |
| 2026 total sales growth | Year to Dec 2026 | 4.5% | 5.5% | Aug 4, 2026 |
| 2026 Adjusted EBITDA growth | Year to Dec 2026 | Aug 4, 2026 | ||
| Operating income improvement run-rate by year-end 2026 | Year to Dec 2026 | 125 | 125 | May 5, 2026 |
Has Henry Schein kept its past promises?
The record makes the promise worth testing. Henry Schein reduced earlier sales expectations in 2022 through 2024 and earnings expectations in 2023 and 2024, after currency effects, weaker pandemic-product demand, the 2023 cyber disruption and a slow recovery intervened. The latest raise is encouraging, but the savings must arrive without another long stream of excluded costs.
| What management forecast | Checked | Above | Within | Below |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Non-GAAP diluted EPS attributable to Henry Schein, Inc. | 4 years | 2 | 0 | 2 |
| Total sales growth | 4 years | 0 | 1 | 3 |
What is Henry Schein's eight-quarter revenue and profit trend?
Sales are higher than they were at the start of the period, yet operating income and net income are lower, and net margin has narrowed. Gross profit increased in 2025, but gross margin fell, which means the company kept more gross-profit dollars while retaining fewer cents from each sales dollar.
| Jun 2026 | Mar 2026 | Dec 2025 | Sep 2025 | Jun 2025 | Mar 2025 | Dec 2024 | Sep 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 3,458 | 3,368 | 3,437 | 3,339 | 3,240 | 3,168 | 3,191 | 3,174 |
| Operating income | 171 | 182 | 163 | 164 | 151 | 175 | 155 | 157 |
| Net income | 94 | 107 | 101 | 101 | 86 | 110 | 94 | 99 |
| EPS, diluted | 0.82 | 0.92 | 0.85 | 0.84 | 0.70 | 0.88 | 0.74 | 0.78 |
What this means. Free cash flow can be negative even when the company reports a profit, because it measures cash received and spent during the quarter, not accounting profit.
What should I watch in Henry Schein's next results?
Henry Schein scheduled its third-quarter results for November 3, 2026, before the market opens, with an 8 a.m. Eastern call. Investors should focus on internal sales growth, the first outsourcing savings and cash after investment. Together, those measures show whether the annual plan is becoming easier to fund.
