NON-GAAP MEASURES
All "Adjusted" amounts including core sales growth and free cash flow are non-GAAP items. Calculations of these measures, the reasons why we believe these measures provide useful information to investors, a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and other information relating to these non-GAAP measures are included in the attached supplemental schedules. We do not reconcile forward looking non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures because of the inherent difficulty in predicting and estimating the future impact and timing of currency translation, acquisitions, discontinued products, and any other potential adjustments which would be reflected in any forecasted GAAP measure.

Core Sales Growth
| Consolidated | % Change Three Month Period Ended April 3, 2026 vs. Comparable 2025 Period |
| Total sales growth | 14.4% |
| Plus the impact of: | |
| Acquisitions | (0.6)% |
| Currency exchange rates | (4.3)% |
| Core Sales Growth | 9.5% |
| Specialty Products & Technologies | |
| Total sales growth | 14.4% |
| Plus the impact of: | |
| Acquisitions | (0.9)% |
| Currency exchange rates | (5.1)% |
| Core Sales Growth | 8.4% |
| Equipment & Consumables | |
| Total sales growth | 14.4% |
| Plus the impact of: | |
| Currency exchange rates | (2.9)% |
| Core Sales Growth | 11.5% |
We use the term “core sales” to refer to GAAP revenue excluding (1) sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition (“acquisitions”), (2) sales from discontinued products and (3) the impact of currency translation. Sales from discontinued products includes major brands or products that Envista has made the decision to discontinue as part of a portfolio restructuring. Discontinued brands or products consist of those which Envista (1) is no longer manufacturing, (2) is no longer investing in the research or development of, and (3) expects to discontinue all significant sales within one year from the decision date to discontinue. The portion of sales attributable to discontinued brands or products is calculated as the net decline of the applicable discontinued brand or product from period-to-period. The portion of GAAP revenue attributable to currency exchange rates is calculated as the difference between (a) the period-to-period change in sales and (b) the period-to-period change in sales after applying current period foreign exchange rates to the prior year period. We use the term “core sales growth” to refer to the measure of comparing current period core sales with the corresponding period of the prior year.
During the first quarter of 2026, we updated our methodology for how we calculate changes in the sales price from period to period. Changes in sales prices are now calculated by comparing the current quarter sales prices to the full year sales price average from the prior year as it better reflects pricing trends over time.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
Each of the non-GAAP measures set forth above should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the comparable GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing Envista Holdings Corporation's (“Envista” or the “Company”) results that, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure, help our investors to:
- with respect to Core Sales, identify underlying growth trends in Envista’s business and compare Envista’s revenue performance with prior and future periods and to Envista’s peers;
- with respect to Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA, understand the long-term profitability trends of Envista’s business and compare Envista’s profitability to prior and future periods and to Envista’s peers;
- with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, help investors understand operational factors associated with Envista’s financial performance because it excludes the following from consideration: interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and infrequent or unusual losses or gains such as goodwill impairment charges or nonrecurring and restructuring charges. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, as a supplemental measure for assessing operating performance in conjunction with related GAAP amounts. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used in connection with operating decisions, strategic planning, annual budgeting, evaluating Company performance and comparing operating results with historical periods and with industry peer companies; and
- with respect to Free Cash Flow (the “FCF Measure”), understand Envista’s ability to generate cash without external financings, in order to invest and grow its business through acquisitions and other strategic opportunities. A limitation of free cash flow is that it does not take into account the Company’s debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures, and as a result the entire Free Cash Flow amount is not necessarily available for discretionary expenditures.
Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance.
The items excluded from the non-GAAP measures set forth above have been excluded for the following reasons:
- With respect to Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA:
- We exclude amortization of acquisition-related and other intangible assets because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions we consummate. While we have a history of significant acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and related amortization term are unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. Exclusion of this amortization expense facilitates more consistent comparisons of operating results over time between our newly acquired and long-held businesses, and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies. We believe, however, that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and that intangible asset amortization related to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized.
- With respect to the other items excluded from Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA, we exclude these items because they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency, occur for reasons that may be unrelated to Envista's commercial performance during the period and/or we believe that such items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult.
- With respect to core sales, we exclude (1) the effect of acquisitions and divested product lines because the timing, size, number and nature of such transactions can vary significantly from period-to-period and between us and our peers, which we believe may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult, (2) sales from discontinued products because discontinued products do not have a continuing contribution to operations and management believes that excluding such items provides investors with a means of evaluating our on-going operations and facilitates comparisons to our peers, and (3) the impact of currency translation because it is not under management’s control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends.
- With respect to the FCF Measure, we adjust for payments for additions to property, plant and equipment (net of the proceeds from capital disposals) to arrive at the amount of operating cash flow for the period that remains after accounting for the Company’s capital expenditure requirements.
