In evaluating our operating performance, we supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures including (i) Adjusted
Revenues, (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (   EBITDA   ), (iii) Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (iv) Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit
Margin, (v) Adjusted Constant Currency Revenue Growth, (vi) Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income Margin, and (vii) Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted earnings per diluted
share. These non-GAAP financial measures are indicators of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. They are presented with the intent of providing
greater transparency to financial information used by us in our financial analysis and operational decision-making. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to
assist investors, stockholders and other readers of our consolidated financial statements in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing the underlying performance of
our results of operations. However, the presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the company   s results
as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other
companies. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures in its operational and financial decision making, and believes that it is useful to exclude certain items in order to focus on what it
regards to be a meaningful alternative representation of the underlying operating performance of the business.
Adjusted Constant Currency Revenue Growth is based upon Reported Revenues, adjusted to exclude, depending on the period presented, the items described in Adjusted Revenues and to
eliminate the impact of translating the results of international subsidiaries at different currency exchange rates from period to period. The impact of changes in foreign currency may vary
significantly from period to period, and such changes generally are outside of the control of our management. We believe that this measure facilitates a comparison of our operating performance
exclusive of currency exchange rate fluctuations that do not reflect our underlying performance or business trends. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results
reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on an Adjusted Constant Currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not
measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
To our stockholders, customers and employees,
The past year marked a significant milestone for embecta     and not just because we marked 100 years since our
predecessors introduced the first syringe specifically designed for insulin delivery.
Fiscal year 2024 was notable as the year we completed major complex programs to stand up our own systems and
processes while maintaining the high level of service our customers count on. It also marked the final year of the
multi-year financial expectations we had provided to the investment community prior to our spinoff, and we were
proud to exceed those expectations since becoming independent despite having to overcome unanticipated
macroeconomic and operating challenges such as high inflation, rapidly rising interest rates and supply chain issues.
We   ve continued to be a valued partner to the diabetes care community thanks to our core strengths including a
global commercial channel which reaches healthcare providers, pharmacists, caregivers, educators, and channel
partners in over 100 countries and our high-volume, high-quality manufacturing expertise that enables us to produce
around 8 billion insulin injection devices each year.
Fiscal 2024 highlights
Since becoming an independent company, our global team has focused their efforts on three strategic priorities:
strengthening our core business; continuing the process of separating and standing up embecta as an independent
company; and investing for growth.
Our core business has remained stable thanks to our long-standing reputation for safe, reliable, and cost-effective
injection devices, and we are proud to be a trusted provider of educational resources for clinicians, caregivers and
people with diabetes. In the United States, our products are listed as an exclusive or dual-preferred brand with three of
the top Medicare part D payers. In Germany, we recently introduced a new small-pack pen needle product to address
the unmet needs of the growing number of customers who are using GLP-1 agonists, and plan to leverage our
leadership and expertise in pen needle manufacturing by expanding this program to
other countries. In Asia, we broadened our presence in e-commerce by
launching on additional platforms and in new countries.
One of the most remarkable achievements was the tremendous
progress we made in setting up our own systems and
processes. At the beginning of the fiscal year, the only part
of our business that had moved onto our new ERP and
manufacturing execution system was our plant in
Suzhou, China. One year later, all three of our
manufacturing sites     and about 98 percent of our
revenue     is operating on embecta   s own systems and
utilizing our own newly established distribution
network and shared services infrastructure. That is
tremendous progress in a very short period of time,
and took considerable effort from everyone across the

organization, who worked hard to ensure that we could execute this important transition without disrupting our
customers or the people they serve.
We identified several growth opportunities in key markets by building partnerships that leverage our local
commercial organizations to offer customers a broader suite of products that may address critical needs for the
people with diabetes they serve. Among these are an exclusive agreement for the distribution of an innovative
insulin pump to customers throughout Mainland China, as well as a partnership where our commercial team in
France will add blood glucose monitors to the range of products they carry. Each of these agreements aligns with
our mission to provide solutions that make life better for people living with diabetes while giving our customers
better access to a range of diabetes care options for the people they serve.
This past fiscal year was also notable as embecta filed its first 510(k) submission and received subsequent
clearance for such submission from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for our proprietary disposable
insulin delivery system. While we ultimately decided to concentrate our resources on our core business and
discontinue our insulin patch pump program, achieving FDA clearance represented a significant achievement by
the team that developed this innovative and differentiated product, which we believe could address a significant
unmet need for people contemplating insulin pump therapy.
Our commitment to the global diabetes community
Our employees feel a deep personal connection to the diabetes community, and it was especially moving to
see how many on our team heartily embraced our 100 Acts of Kindness campaign as we celebrated 100 years of
commitment to the global diabetes community. These acts included community service, educational workshops,
charitable donations and personal gestures of kindness, all aligned with our ongoing mission to make life better
for people living with diabetes. In addition, members of our team in Canada memorialized this legacy by laying
a commemorative brick at the Banting House National Historic Site     the    birthplace of insulin        on World
Diabetes Day.
We continued our tradition of inviting advocacy and professional groups to join us on stage to ring the Nasdaq
Closing Bell in recognition of Diabetes Awareness Month in November 2024, this time celebrating the strength,
well-being and individuality of people living with diabetes. We share a common mission and vision
with these organizations, and this event gives them a highly visible platform to raise their
profile among the estimated 537 million people worldwide who are living with
diabetes   , as well as their friends, loved ones and caregivers.

Education is foundational to our mission, and in 2024, our team in Asia
launched emERGE, a diabetes educational program developed in
partnership with Diabetes Singapore and the Association of Diabetes
Educators Singapore. The virtual program, which is available in 11
countries, seeks to enhance the skills and knowledge of healthcare
professionals with the latest insights and best practices in diabetes care.

inefficiencies, and optimizing every aspect of our operations to ensure we remain lean, agile, and ready to adapt.
By reducing net leverage and debt, we intend to create a stronger financial base that enables us to make future
strategic investments and remain resilient, regardless of market conditions.
We will continue to add to the rich legacy of a 100-year-old business that has made a difference in countless lives.
Our approximately 2,000 employees around the world have accomplished so much in the short time since we
became an independent company, and they are eager to have an even greater impact in the year ahead.
