FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HENRY SCHEIN REPORTS RECORD FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS

Q4 internal sales in local currencies up 6.5%, an eight-year high;

Q4 Adjusted EPS of $1.67;

Affirms 2016 guidance range

MELVILLE, N.Y., February 10, 2016 – Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ: HSIC), the world’s largest provider of health care products and services to office-based dental, animal health and medical practitioners, today reported record fourth quarter financial results.

Net sales for the quarter ended December 26, 2015 were $2.9 billion, an increase of 5.5% compared with the fourth quarter of 2014. This consisted of 10.3% growth in local currencies and a 4.8% decline related to foreign currency exchange. In local currencies, internally generated sales increased 6.5% and acquisition growth was 3.8% (see Exhibit A for details of sales growth).

Net income attributable to Henry Schein, Inc. for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $129.9 million, or $1.56 per diluted share. Excluding restructuring costs of $12.4 million pretax or $0.11 per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to Henry Schein, Inc. for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $139.3 million or $1.67 per diluted share. This represents an increase of 4.7% and 7.1%, respectively, compared with the fourth quarter of 2014 (see Exhibit B for reconciliation of GAAP net income and EPS to non-GAAP adjusted net income and EPS).

“We are delighted to report that sales growth during the fourth quarter was particularly strong, and we believe we gained market share on an overall basis during the quarter both in North America and internationally, as we successfully continued our long-standing strategy of organic growth complemented by strategic acquisitions. We are especially pleased with our worldwide internal sales growth in local currencies for the quarter of 6.5%, which represents the highest quarterly growth rate in eight years,” said Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein. “Adjusted diluted EPS for the fourth quarter was $1.67. This caps off a successful 2015 performance with adjusted EPS growth for the year of nearly 10%, despite the continued negative impact from the strength of the U.S. dollar. We are pleased to affirm guidance for 2016 adjusted diluted EPS, which represents growth of 10% to 12% compared with 2015 adjusted diluted EPS.”

Dental sales of $1.4 billion increased 1.5%, consisting of 7.3% growth in local currencies and a 5.8% decline related to foreign currency exchange. In local currencies internally generated sales increased 6.6% and acquisition growth was 0.7%. The 6.6% internal growth in local currencies included 7.6% growth in North America and 4.9% growth internationally.

“We achieved local internal sales growth at multiyear high levels across our dental business – in North America, internationally and for the group as a whole. In North America, consumable merchandise internal sales growth in local currencies of 6.1% was particularly strong. Equipment sales and service internal sales growth in local currencies of 11.5% also was excellent and reflected strength in sales of traditional equipment,” commented Mr. Bergman. “International consumable merchandise internal sales growth in local currencies grew by 4.0%, led by the U.K. and France. International equipment sales and service internal growth in local currencies was a solid 7.0%, led by Germany, Australia, Austria and the U.K. During the fourth quarter, we acquired a 90% ownership in Dental Trey, which complements our existing business in Italy with a solid product offering and long-standing customer relationships. We also recently signed an agreement to acquire a majority interest in Dental Cremer, a distributor of dental supplies and equipment in Brazil. This investment will build upon our existing business in Brazil, which we established in 2014.”

Animal Health sales of $756.2 million increased 3.4%, consisting of 9.5% growth in local currencies and a 6.1% decline related to foreign currency exchange. In local currencies, internally generated sales increased 2.3% and acquisition growth was 7.2%. The 2.3% internal growth in local currencies included 1.2% growth in North America and 3.3% growth internationally.

“Normalizing Animal Health results to account for the impact of certain products switching between agency sales and direct sales, as well as changes to our veterinary diagnostics manufacturer relationships, internal sales growth in local currencies was 5.6% for the quarter, including 8.4% growth in North America,” commented Mr. Bergman. “Growth in our Animal Health group in the fourth quarter continued to benefit from strategic acquisitions, primarily our recent scil and Jorgen Kruuse A/S acquisitions.”

Medical sales of $561.6 million increased 21.6%, consisting of 22.2% growth in local currencies and a 0.6% decline related to foreign currency exchange. In local currencies, internally generated sales increased 13.4% and acquisition growth was 8.8%.

“North America Medical sales growth was a robust 23.2%, including internal sales growth of 14.0%. When normalizing for the impact of agency sales under our strategic agreement with Cardinal Health, North America Medical internal sales growth was 10.2%, resulting in the fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit sales gains. This reflects continued success with large group practices and integrated delivery networks. We are delighted with the successful transition of the Cardinal Health customers to the Henry Schein platform, which is substantially complete, and provides a broad continuum of care solutions,” remarked Mr. Bergman.

Technology and Value-Added Services sales of $93.8 million increased 2.8%, including 4.5% growth in local currencies and a 1.7% decline related to foreign currency exchange. In local currencies, internally generated sales increased 4.0% and acquisition growth was 0.5%.

“Technology and Value-Added Services internal sales growth in North America was 4.2% in local currencies, with particular strength in electronic services and value-added services. International internal growth in local currencies was 2.7%,” commented Mr. Bergman. “Early in 2016 we completed the acquisition of a majority interest in Vetstreet, a leading domestic provider of marketing solutions and health information analytics. We are particularly excited about the potential to pair our practice management software solutions with the data analytics capabilities from Vetstreet, which can offer valuable market insight to help manufacturers and veterinarians improve the success of treatments and business efficiency. We also acquired RxWorks, a practice management software company serving veterinarians in Australia, New Zealand, the U.K. and the Netherlands.”

The Company announced that it repurchased approximately 1 million shares of its common stock during the fourth quarter at an average price of $146.90 per share, or approximately $150 million.

These documents identify in detail important risk factors that could cause our actual performance to differ materially from current expectations.

Risk factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current and historical results include, but are not limited to: effects of a highly competitive and consolidating market; our dependence on third parties for the manufacture and supply of our products; our dependence upon sales personnel, customers, suppliers and manufacturers; our dependence on our senior management; fluctuations in quarterly earnings; risks from expansion of customer purchasing power and multi-tiered costing structures; increases in shipping costs for our products or other service issues with our third-party shippers; general global macroeconomic conditions; disruptions in financial markets; volatility of the market price of our common stock; changes in the health care industry; implementation of health care laws; failure to comply with regulatory requirements and data privacy laws; risks associated with our global operations; transitional challenges associated with acquisitions and joint ventures, including the failure to achieve anticipated synergies; financial risks associated with acquisitions and joint ventures; litigation risks; the dependence on our continued product development, technical support and successful marketing in the technology segment; increased competition by third party online commerce sites; risks from disruption to our information systems; cyberattacks or other privacy or data security breaches; certain provisions in our governing documents that may discourage third-party acquisitions of us; and changes in tax legislation.
