Constant currency organic revenue growth was 6 % . Healthcare operating income was $ 260.2 million compared with $ 235.5 million in last year's first quarter . The increase in operating income was primarily due to improved volume , price , productivity and favorable mix , which were somewhat offset by inflation and increased tariff costs . Fiscal 2027 first quarter revenue for Applied Sterilization Technologies ( AST ) increased 6 % as reported to $ 297.6 million compared with $ 281.2 million in the same period last year . This performance reflected 6 % growth in service revenue and a 13 % decline in capital equipment revenue . Constant currency organic revenue growth was 5 % . Segment operating income was $ 142.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 , compared with operating income of $ 136.7 million in the same period last year .

This performance reflected 17 % growth in capital equipment revenue , 8 % improvement in consumable revenue , and 2 % growth in service revenue . Constant currency organic revenue increased 8 % . Operating income increased to $ 61.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared with $ 58.7 million in the prior year's first quarter .

Free cash flow for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $ 279.6 million compared with $ 326.5 million in the prior year period . The decrease in cash flow from operations and free cash
Page 2
flow was driven primarily by a significantly lower contribution from working capital in fiscal 2027 compared with fiscal 2026, partially offset by higher net income. Restructuring STERIS today is also announcing a targeted restructuring plan in connection with its recent announcement to consolidate manufacturing and distribution for formulated chemistries to a new Center of Excellence in North Carolina. The investment is expected to accelerate innovation, expand capacity and optimize our U.S. chemistries manufacturing and distribution network. Once complete, the plan includes the anticipated closure of chemistry manufacturing and distribution facilities in St. Louis, Missouri, and Plymouth, Minnesota. The Company currently expects to incur total pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $55 million to $70 million, consisting of approximately $40 million to $50 million of cash expenditures and approximately $15 million to $20 million of non-cash charges. Cash expenditures are expected to primarily consist of Associate retention, severance and benefits, and also include transition, facility exit and other related costs. Non-cash charges are expected to primarily relate to accelerated depreciation. These charges are expected to be incurred over time, with completion anticipated to occur during fiscal 2030, and will be excluded from adjusted earnings measurements. The estimated costs and timing associated with the restructuring actions are based on the Company's current expectations and are subject to various assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Accordingly, the Company may revise its estimates in future periods as implementation activities progress. Fiscal 2027 Outlook The Company is reiterating its prior guidance for revenue and earnings for fiscal 2027. This includes as reported revenue growth of 7-8% and constant currency organic revenue growth of 6-7%. Adjusted earnings per diluted share are anticipated to be in the range of $11.10 to $11.30, unchanged from prior expectations. Reflecting the recently announced investment to build a formulated chemistries manufacturing Center of Excellence in North Carolina, capital expenditures are now anticipated to be approximately $450 million compared with prior expectations of $375 million. Free cash flow is now expected to be approximately $800 million compared with prior expectations of $850 million, as the increase in capital expenditures are anticipated to be somewhat offset by the stronger than expected first quarter cash flow.

Company Contact: Julie Winter, Vice President, Investor Relations and Corporate Communications Julie_Winter@steris.com 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
Page 3
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 gross profit, 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, restructuring charges (credits), and certain other unusual or non-recurring items. STERIS believes these measures are useful because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provide 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. Other potential risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation: (a) the impact on STERIS and its operations of any legislation, regulations or orders, including but not limited to any new trade, regulations or orders, that may be implemented by the U.S. administration or Congress, or of any responses thereto by non-U.S. governments; (b) operating costs, pressure on pricing (including, without limitation, as a result of inflation), Customer loss and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with
Page 4
Associates, Customers, clients or suppliers) being greater than expected and leading to erosion of profit margins; (c) the potential of international unrest, military conflicts, economic downturns, currency fluctuations and cybersecurity events and any resulting effects on STERIS’s anticipated growth, performance or other results; (d) changes in healthcare policy or government or other third-party payor reimbursement levels; (e) the possibility that compliance with laws, court rulings, certifications, regulations, or other regulatory actions, or the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation, including the EO litigation, may delay, limit or prevent new product or service introductions, impact production, supply and/or marketing of existing products or services, result in uncovered costs, or otherwise affect STERIS’s performance, results, prospects or value; (f) changes in tax laws or interpretations or the adoption of certain income tax treaties in jurisdictions where we operate that could increase our consolidated tax liabilities, including changes in tax laws that would result in STERIS being treated as a U.S. resident for U.S. federal tax purposes, or the impact of tariffs and/or other trade barriers as a result of STERIS’s corporate structure; (g) the impacts of increasing consolidation and competition within our industry, which may exert pressure on our pricing strategy, manufacturing strategy or lead to decreasing demand for our products and services; (h) the effects on our operations resulting from labor-related issues, such as strikes, unsuccessful union negotiations and other workforce disruptions or from our inability to recruit or retain management and other personnel; (i) the level of STERIS’s indebtedness limiting financial flexibility or increasing future borrowing costs; (j) the effects of changes in credit availability and pricing, as well as the ability of STERIS and STERIS’s Customers and suppliers to adequately access the credit markets, on favorable terms or at all, when needed; (k) the possibility that anticipated financial results, anticipated revenue, productivity improvements, cost savings, growth synergies, and other anticipated benefits of acquisitions, restructuring efforts, and divestitures will not be realized or will be less than anticipated due to unknown or inestimable liabilities, impairments, or increases in expected integration costs or difficulties in connection with the integration of acquired businesses; and (l) the possibility that expectations about the benefits, charges and cash expenditures from the new Center of Excellence in North Carolina and the related facility consolidation plan may not be accurate or realized on anticipated timelines, or at all. 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.
