Question · Q1 2026

Matt Somerville of D.A. Davidson sought more specific details on the weather impact on the Medical and Fluid Solutions (MFS) business, including affected product lines and the normalized organic performance. He also inquired about the current M&A landscape, including multiples, deal sizes, and areas of activity across the company.

Answer

Daniel Hopgood, EVP and CFO, explained that the weather impact was primarily on interventional products and fluid components, affecting East Coast operations and supply chains, resulting in about a 1% sales impact (2-3 days of production).
