Danaher Corporation (DHR - Free Report) is set to provide an update on its fourth-quarter 2022 guidance at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference today.
For the fourth quarter, the company expects revenues to increase in the low-single-digit percent range from the year-ago quarter’s level. Adjusted core revenue growth is anticipated to be in the high-single-digit percent range against the flat to a low-single-digit percent decline stated earlier. Danaher maintains its adjusted base business core revenue growth in the high-single digit percent range for the fourth quarter.
DHR’s president and chief executive officer, Rainer M. Blair said that the company’s fourth-quarter performance benefited from strong growth in the Cepheid's molecular diagnostics business, thanks to respiratory testing revenues of more than $1 billion.
Strength in the Life Sciences segment owing to robust activity in the bioprocessing business and growth in instrument businesses are likely to have aided Danaher’s fourth-quarter performance. However, high raw material and freight costs, and supply chain disruptions are likely to have affected DHR’s margin performance in the quarter.
