Revenue Decline: Embecta's Q4 revenue was $264 million, down 7.7% year-over-year as reported and down 10.4% on an adjusted constant currency basis, mainly due to prior-year distributor order timing and U.S. pricing headwinds.
Margin Outperformance: The company exceeded its previously provided guidance ranges for adjusted gross, operating, and EBITDA margins in 2025.
Debt Reduction: Embecta generated approximately $182 million in free cash flow and paid down $184 million in debt, surpassing its original target.
China Headwinds: Revenue in China declined due to increased competition from local brands and geopolitical pressures, but management expects lower headwinds in 2026.
GLP-1 Partnerships: Embecta is working with over 30 GLP-1 partners, with first product launches expected in 2026 in several countries; GLP-1 revenue is not assumed in the low end of 2026 guidance.
2026 Guidance: For 2026, revenue is expected to be flat to down 2% on an adjusted constant currency basis, with adjusted operating margin guided to 29–30% (down ~180bps at midpoint) and EPS between $2.80 and $3.
Cannula Cost Pressures: Increased cannula costs (single-source supply) continue to weigh on margins, but alternative suppliers are being developed.
