Danaher outlines 2026 growth framework at Jefferies London Healthcare Conference
DHR
Guidance Update
M&A
Product Launch
  • Danaher targets 3%–6% core growth for 2026, implying high single-digit EPS expansion, following a 3% core growth and 10%+ EPS beat in Q3 2025.
  • Bioprocessing revenue is expected to grow high single digits in 2026—driven by mid-teens consumables growth—while equipment sales are assumed flat after a 2025 decline.
  • Diagnostics will face a $75M–$100M headwind in 2026 from volume-based procurement, but ex-China growth has been mid to high single digits, supported by new platforms like the DXI 9000 immunoanalyzer and AI-enabled digital pathology.
  • Life Sciences Tools is forecast to be flattish in 2026 as academic/government exposure (~20% of the segment) remains down, offset by stable pharma, clinical and applied markets and launches such as the 8600 ZenoTOF, Mosaic Spectral solution, and Cytiva VT.
  • Capital allocation remains M&A-biased under a disciplined framework—recent transactions include Abcam, Pall and GE Biopharma—with opportunistic share buybacks when ROIC justifies.

Danaher sets 3%-6% core growth guidance for 2026
DHR
Guidance Update
M&A
Product Launch
  • Danaher ended Q3 ahead on revenue, EPS and cash flow, and plans to reinvest productivity gains in Q4; it targets 3%–6% core growth for 2026 with high single-digit EPS growth at the low end of the range.
  • Bioprocessing is forecast to grow in the high single digits, led by mid-teens consumables growth, while equipment sales are assumed flat in 2026; equipment orders showed sequential improvement, with reshoring investments expected to ramp over 2027+.
  • Life science tools outlook is flattish, reflecting a continued academic/government slowdown (≈20% of life sciences), offset by stable pharma, clinical and applied markets; key innovations include the 8600 ZenoTOF mass spectrometer and Mosaic Spectral flow cytometry module.
  • Diagnostics ex-China has delivered mid- to high-single-digit growth over the past six quarters; the volume-based procurement headwind of $75–100 million in 2026 is easing, and new high-resolution immunoassays and AI-driven digital pathology platforms are in early rollout.
  • Capital allocation remains biased toward M&A, focusing on strategic assets with “value reserves” for Danaher Business System improvement; share buybacks are opportunistic when they offer superior ROIC.
