  • Full-year Diluted EPS of $6.79 increased 1.5%.
  • Full-year Adjusted-diluted EPS of $7.29 increased 8.0%.

  • During 2025, the Company repurchased 552,593 shares for $134.0 million at an average share price of $242.55 under its share repurchase programs.

"Our strong finish to 2025 was a result of the team's relentless execution of our growth strategy," said Eric M. Green, West's President, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board. "Our performance in the quarter was led by our High-Value Product Components business in our Proprietary Products Segment, enabling us to deliver double-digit adjusted earnings per share growth. We expect positive momentum to continue in 2026, which will be a key year of execution and operational excellence to drive sustainable growth and create value for our patients, customers and shareholders."

Proprietary Products Segment
Fourth-quarter net sales of $661.8 million grew by 7.8% and increased 3.6% on an organic basis.

  • High-Value Product ("HVP") Components net sales of $389.8 million increased 20.3% and grew 15.1% on an organic basis driven by strength in Westar® and Envision® products. HVP Components accounted for 48% of total company net sales in the quarter.
  • HVP Delivery Devices net sales of $110.4 million decreased by 16.9%, and were down 18.1% on an organic basis, driven by the previously disclosed non-recurring incentive fee of $25 million earned in the fourth quarter of 2024. HVP Delivery Devices accounted for 14% of total company net sales in the quarter.
  • Standard Products net sales of $161.6 million increased by 3.0%, but declined 1.7% on an organic basis. Standard Products accounted for 20% of total company net sales this quarter.

Contract-Manufactured Products Segment
Fourth-quarter 2025 net sales increased by 6.2% to $143.2 million, while organic net sales grew 1.9%. Segment performance was driven by growth in self-injection devices for obesity and diabetes, partially offset by a continued decrease in sales of healthcare diagnostic devices.  Contract Manufacturing accounted for 18% of total company net sales in the quarter.

Introducing Full-Year and First-Quarter 2026 Financial Guidance

  • Full-year 2026 net sales are expected to be in a range of $3.215 billion to $3.275 billion, which assumes a mid-year 2026 close for the sale of SmartDose 3.5ml to AbbVie.
    • Reported growth is expected to be between 4.6% and 6.5% while organic net sales growth is expected to be approximately 5% to 7%.
    • Net sales guidance includes an estimated full-year 2026 benefit of 2 percentage points based on current foreign currency exchange rates.
    • SmartDose® 3.5mL generated $55 million in revenues in the second half of 2025. These revenues are excluded to calculate our full-year 2026 organic revenue growth guidance.
  • Full-year 2026 adjusted-diluted EPS is expected to be in a range of $7.85 to $8.20, representing growth of 7.7% to 12.5%.
  • Full-year 2026 capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $250 million to $275 million.
  • First-quarter 2026 net sales are expected to be in the range of $770 million to $790 million, representing reported growth of 10.3% to 13.2% and organic growth of 4.6% to 7.4%.
  • First-quarter adjusted-diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $1.65 to $1.70, up 13.0% to 16.4%.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements may include such words as "expected," "assumes," "unchanged," "includes," "would," "provide" and other similar terminology. These statements reflect management's current expectations regarding future events and operating performance and speak only as of the date of this release. There is no certainty that actual results will be achieved in-line with current expectations. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The following are some of the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements: prevailing economic conditions and general uncertainties relating thereto that may be unknown and unforeseeable; customers' changing inventory requirements and manufacturing plans and customer decisions to move forward with our new products and product categories; disruptions or limitations in the Company's manufacturing capacity; average profitability, or mix, of the products we sell; dependence on third-party suppliers and partners; increased raw material, energy and labor costs; fluctuations in currency exchange; the ability to meet development milestones with key customers; and the consequences of other geopolitical events, including natural disasters, acts of war, and global health crises. This list of important factors is not all inclusive. For a description of certain additional factors that could cause the Company's future results to differ from those expressed in any such forward-looking statements, see Part I Item 1A, entitled "Risk Factors," in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

Except as required by law or regulation, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
This release contains certain financial measures outside of generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), including organic net sales and adjusted-diluted EPS. For the purpose of aiding the comparison of our year-over-year results, we may refer to net sales and other financial results excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Organic net sales exclude the impact from acquisitions and/or divestitures and translate the current-period reported sales of subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. Dollar at the applicable foreign currency exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior-year period. We may also refer to financial results excluding the effects of unallocated items. The re-measured results excluding effects from currency translation and excluding the effects of unallocated items are not in conformity with U.S. GAAP and should not be used as a substitute for the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. The non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are incorporated into our discussion and analysis as management uses them in evaluating our results of operations and believes that this information provides users a valuable insight into our overall performance and financial position. A reconciliation of these adjusted non-U.S. GAAP measures to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying tables.

During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $1.4 million and $23.3 million, respectively, related to our two existing restructuring programs: (i) 0.9 million and $18.4 million in the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, within other expense (income), related to severance, acceleration of depreciation and lease costs in connection with the Company's January 2025 restructuring plan and (ii) $0.5 million and $4.9 million in the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, within selling, general and administrative expenses, for professional services relating to our 2024 plan to optimize the legal structure of the Company and its subsidiaries. In addition, we recorded income tax charges of $2.3 million and $4.9 million during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, related primarily to withholding tax and capital gains incurred in executing our plan to optimize our legal structure. During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded expense to restructuring and other charges of $3.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The net expense represents the impact of two items, the first of which is an expense $3.0 million and $4.6 million during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024, respectively, recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in connection with a plan to optimize the legal structure of the Company and its subsidiaries. The expense consisted primarily of consulting fees, legal expenses, and other one-time costs directly attributable to this plan. This expense was partially offset by a $2.5 million benefit in the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 recorded within other expense (income) related to revised severance estimates in connection with the Company's 2022 restructuring plan.

(2)

During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded charges of $8.4 million related to the Company's agreement to sell its SmartDose® 3.5mL On-Body Delivery System and associated facilities to AbbVie. The Company recorded $6.2 million of the charges within other expense (income), related to severance and lease impairment charges in connection with the sale agreement. The Company recorded the remaining $2.2 million within selling, general and administrative expenses, relating to professional services in connection with the sale agreement.

(3)

During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded cost-method investment impairment charges of $4.5 million within other expense (income).

(4)

During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $0.0 million and $0.2 million, and $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of amortization expense within operating profit associated with an intangible asset acquired during the second quarter of 2020. During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $0.5 million and $1.8 million, and $0.5 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of amortization expense in association with an acquisition of increased ownership interest in Daikyo.
