As reported, net income from continuing operations for the full year fiscal 2025 was $610.1 million or $6.16 per diluted share, compared with net income of $551.4 million or $5.55 per diluted share in fiscal 2024.

Fourth Quarter Segment Results from Continuing Operations
Healthcare revenue as reported grew 5% in the fourth quarter to $1.1 billion compared with $1.0 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. This performance reflected 13% improvement in service revenue, 6% growth in consumable revenue, and a 4% decline in capital equipment revenue. Constant currency organic revenue growth was 6%. Healthcare operating income was $279.7 million compared with $245.2 million in last year's fourth quarter. The increase in operating income was primarily due to improved volume, price, productivity and the benefit of restructuring.
Fiscal 2025 fourth quarter revenue for Applied Sterilization Technologies (AST) increased 9% as reported to $273.9 million compared with $250.9 million in the same period last year. This performance reflected 6% growth in service revenue and an increase in capital equipment revenue. Constant currency organic revenue growth was 10%. Segment operating income was $122.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, compared with operating income of $114.2 million in the same period last year. The operating income increase compared with the prior year primarily reflects improved volume and price, which was partially offset by continued increases in labor and energy costs.
Life Sciences fourth quarter revenue as reported decreased 7% to $149.5 million compared with $160.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the divestiture of the CECS business on April 1, 2024 and a decline in capital equipment revenue. This performance reflected 8% growth in consumable revenue offset by a 16% decline in capital equipment revenue and a 21% decline in service revenue. Constant currency organic revenue was flat. Reflecting improvement in mix and price, operating income increased to $65.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 compared with $64.5 million in the prior year's fourth quarter.
Net cash provided by operations for fiscal 2025 was $1.15 billion, compared with $973.3 million in fiscal 2024. Free cash flow for fiscal 2025 was $787.2 million compared with $620.3 million in the prior year period. The increase in free cash flow during the period was driven primarily by working capital improvements.
For fiscal 2026, the Company expects as reported revenue from continuing operations to increase 6-7%. Based on forward rates through March 31, 2026, currency is expected to be neutral to revenue in fiscal 2026. As a result, constant currency organic revenue growth from continuing operations is also anticipated to be 6-7%. Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations is anticipated to be in the range of $9.90 to $10.15, an increase of 7-10% compared with $9.22 in adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations in fiscal 2025. Included in this outlook is the negative impact of tariffs, estimated to reduce pre-tax profit by approximately $30 million.
Capital expenditures are anticipated to be approximately $375 million and free cash flow is expected to be approximately $770 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net income, adjusted income from operations, free cash flow, adjusted EPS and constant currency organic revenue are non-GAAP measures that may be used from time to time and should not be considered replacements for U.S. GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this release with the intent of providing greater transparency to supplemental financial information used by management and the Board of Directors in their financial analysis and operational decision making. These amounts are disclosed so that the reader has the same financial data that management uses with the belief that it will assist investors and other readers in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing the underlying performance of our operations for the periods presented. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered along with our U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure.
Adjusted net income, adjusted EPS and adjusted income from operations exclude the amortization of intangible assets acquired in business combinations, acquisition and divestiture related transaction costs and gains or losses, integration costs related to acquisitions, tax restructuring costs, and certain other unusual or non-recurring items. STERIS believes this measure is useful because it excludes items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provides a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses.
The Company defines free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property, plant, equipment and intangibles, plus proceeds from the sale of property, plant, equipment, and intangibles. STERIS believes that free cash flow is a useful measure of the Company's ability to fund future principal debt repayments and growth outside of core operations, pay cash dividends, and repurchase ordinary shares.
To measure the percentage organic revenue growth, the Company removes the impact of significant acquisitions and divestitures that affect the comparability and trends in revenue. To measure the percentage constant currency organic revenue growth, the impact of changes in currency exchange rates and acquisitions and divestitures that affect the comparability and trends in revenue are removed. The impact of changes in currency exchange rates is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average currency exchange rates.
Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported sales, gross profit, operating income, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with U.S. GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of the business. The Company strongly encourages investors and shareholders to review its financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This release may contain statements concerning certain trends, expectations, forecasts, estimates, or other forward-looking information affecting or relating to STERIS or its industry, products or activities that are intended to qualify for the protections afforded "forward-looking statements" under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other laws and regulations. Forward-looking statements speak only as to the date the statement is made and may be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as "may," "will," "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "estimates," "projects," "targets," "forecasts," "outlook," "impact," "potential," "confidence," "improve," "optimistic," "deliver," "orders," "backlog," "comfortable," "trend," and "seeks," or the negative of such terms or other variations on such terms or comparable terminology.
Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements including, without limitation, those identified in STERIS's recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Unless legally required, STERIS does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements even if events make clear that any projected results, express or implied, will not be realized.
