# Henry Schein: Business Model & Revenue Engine

## Direct Answer

Henry Schein reports revenue across 3 business segments in its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. Global Distribution and Value Added Services is the largest, with $11.1 billion of revenue (84% of the total), followed by Global Specialty Products at $1.4 billion (11%). 69% of revenue came from the United States.

## How Does Henry Schein Make Money?

Global Distribution and Value Added Services supplies 84% of revenue, so Henry Schein's results move mostly with that one business; the others matter more for diversification than for the headline number. Between fiscal 2024 and 2025, Global Technology grew fastest (+7.1%) and Global Specialty Products slowest (-3.9%), so the revenue mix tilts toward Global Technology while that gap lasts.

| Segment | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Global Distribution and Value Added Services | $11.1 billion | $10.7 billion | 84.5% | 3.8% |
| Global Specialty Products | $1.4 billion | $1.4 billion | 10.5% | -3.9% |
| Global Technology | $675 million | $630 million | 5.1% | 7.1% |

## Which Henry Schein Segments Earn the Most?

| Segment | FY2025 segment operating income | Segment margin |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Global Distribution and Value Added Services | $680 million | 6.1% |
| Global Specialty Products | $242 million | 17.4% |
| Global Technology | $180 million | 26.7% |

Segment operating income is the profit measure Henry Schein reports to its chief operating decision maker for each segment. It usually leaves out corporate costs that are not allocated to a segment, so the segments usually add up to more than consolidated operating income, and margins are comparable within Henry Schein more safely than against another company.

## Where Does Henry Schein's Revenue Come From?

Regions follow the definitions in the filing; most companies assign revenue by customer location.

| Region | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| United States | $9.1 billion | $8.8 billion | 69.0% | 3.1% |
| Outside the United States | $4.1 billion | $3.8 billion | 31.0% | 6.2% |

## What the Segment Figures Do Not Show

The rows above add up to 100% of Henry Schein's reported revenue for fiscal 2025; the difference is intersegment eliminations, corporate revenue or items the company reports outside its segments. Segment definitions are management's choice and change when a company reorganizes, in which case it restates prior years in the next filing, so a multi-year comparison should use the figures from a single filing. Revenue shows where sales come from, not where profit or cash is earned: a small segment can carry most of the margin.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Henry Schein reported in the segment note and revenue disclosures of its Form 10-K filed February 24, 2026 (accession 0001000228-26-000013), read from the SEC's Financial Statement Data Sets. The prior-year column is the comparative figure from that same filing, so it reflects any restatement for a change in segments. Category names are the company's own XBRL labels, lightly reformatted for reading.

Rows that only total other rows (for example a "Products" line beside the individual products) are left out so nothing is counted twice. This page is educational and describes reported history for fiscal 2025; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
