Fourth Quarter 2025 Results
Net sales in the fourth quarter 2025 were $7.8 billion, an increase of 14.8%, compared to $6.8 billion in the fourth quarter 2024, with Organic Sales¹ increasing 14.4%. This was primarily driven by increased volumes, with strong growth from both the Medline Brand and Supply Chain Solutions segments.
Fourth quarter 2025 net income was $180 million, a decrease of 37.7%, compared to $289 million in the fourth quarter 2024, driven by higher costs of goods sold due to tariffs and higher operating costs, including investments in headcount and IPO-related expenses, partially offset by higher net sales.
Fourth quarter 2025 Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $805 million, a decrease of 0.6%, compared to the fourth quarter 2024, driven by higher costs of goods sold due to tariffs and higher operating costs, including investments in headcount, partially offset by higher net sales.
Full Year 2025 Results
Net sales for the full year 2025 were $28.4 billion, an increase of 11.5%, compared to $25.5 billion for full year 2024, with Organic Sales¹ increasing 10.5%. This was primarily driven by increased volumes, with strong growth from both the Medline Brand and Supply Chain Solutions segments.
Full year 2025 net income was $1.2 billion, a decrease of 3.6% compared to $1.2 billion for full year 2024, driven by higher costs of goods sold due to tariffs and higher operating costs, including investments in headcount and IPO-related expenses, partially offset by higher net sales.
Full year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $3.5 billion, an increase of 3.2%, compared to $3.4 billion for full year 2024, driven by higher net sales, partially offset by higher costs of goods sold due to tariffs and higher operating costs, including investments in headcount.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the full year of 2025 was $1.7 billion, primarily driven by net income, excluding the impact of non-cash items, partially offset by changes in working capital primarily due to increased trade accounts receivable related to net sales growth, increased inventories including tariff impacts, and a net cash outflow in the second quarter of 2025 related to legal settlements.
Free Cash Flow¹ for the full year of 2025 was $1.3 billion, primarily driven by net cash provided by operating activities, offset by capital expenditures related to continued enhancements and automation in our distribution centers and investments in our kitting manufacturing facilities.
