Owens & Minor Inc. 2025 Annual Report: A Year of Transformation and Challenges
Richmond, Virginia – In a year marked by significant operational changes and strategic decisions, Owens & Minor Inc., now rebranded as Accendra Health, Inc., released its 2025 annual report, reflecting a complex financial landscape. The company, known for its comprehensive healthcare solutions, navigated through both challenges and opportunities, culminating in the sale of its Products & Healthcare Services business and a notable improvement in its loss per share from continuing operations.
1. Financial Performance Overview
Owens & Minor's financial results for 2025 show a net loss per share from continuing operations of $(1.34), a significant recovery from $(4.57) in 2024. This improvement can be attributed to several factors, notably:
- Absence of Goodwill Impairment: The company faced a considerable goodwill impairment charge of $307 million in the previous year, which was absent in 2025.
- Revenue Growth: A total revenue increase of $82 million was recorded, indicating a modest recovery trajectory.
- Reduction in Expenses: The company successfully reduced exit and realignment charges by $28 million and decreased selling, general, and administrative expenses by $15 million.
However, these gains were somewhat offset by substantial costs associated with the termination of the Rotech acquisition, which incurred an $80 million transaction breakage fee, along with increased costs of net revenue and intangible amortization.
Annual Financial Highlights
For the year ending December 31, 2025, Owens & Minor reported a net income of $(1.10 billion), which included:
- Total Revenue: $2.76 billion
- Cost of Revenue: $1.47 billion
- Operating Income: $27.46 million
- Operating Expenses: $1.26 billion
The operating environment was challenging, with a notable impact from a commercial payor's contract termination that affected $322 million or 12% of net revenue.
2. Strategic Divestitures and Operational Shifts
Sale of Products & Healthcare Services Business
On December 31, 2025, Owens & Minor completed the sale of its Products & Healthcare Services (P&HS) business to Dominion Healthcare Acquisition Corporation for $375 million in cash. This strategic move is expected to allow the company to focus on growth areas while retaining a 5% equity interest in the sold segment.
Termination of Rotech Acquisition
The planned acquisition of Rotech Healthcare Holdings was mutually terminated in June 2025, resulting in a cash payout of $80 million. This decision reflects the company’s strategic recalibration in response to market conditions.
