Credit Facilities
The company has a revolving credit facility (the Facility) with a bank group that provides for up to $ 5.00 billion of unsecured multi-currency revolving credit. The Facility expires on January 7, 2028. The revolving credit agreement calls for interest at either a Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), EURIBOR-based rate (for funds drawn in euro), or a rate based on the prime lending rate of the agent bank, at the company’s option. The agreement contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default customary for facilities of this type. The covenants in the Facility include a Consolidated Net Interest Coverage Ratio (Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Net Interest Expense), as such terms are defined in the Facility. Specifically, the company has agreed that, so long as any lender has any commitment under the Facility, any letter of credit is outstanding under the Facility, or any loan or other obligation is outstanding under the Facility, it will maintain a minimum Consolidated Net Interest Coverage Ratio of 3.5 :1.0 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. As of March 28, 2026, no borrowings were outstanding under the Facility.

Commercial Paper Programs
The company has commercial paper programs pursuant to which it may issue and sell unsecured, short-term promissory notes (CP Notes). Under the U.S. program, a) maturities may not exceed 397 days from the date of issue and b) the CP Notes are issued on a private placement basis under customary terms in the commercial paper market and are not redeemable prior to maturity nor subject to voluntary prepayment. Under the euro program, maturities may not exceed 183 days and may be denominated in euro, U.S. dollars, Japanese yen, British pounds sterling, Swiss franc, Canadian dollars or other currencies. Under both programs, the CP Notes are issued at a discount from par (or premium to par, in the case of negative interest rates), or, alternatively, are sold at par and bear varying interest rates on a fixed or floating basis.
Senior Notes
Interest is payable annually on the euro and public Swiss franc-denominated fixed rate senior notes, quarterly on the euro-denominated floating rate senior note, and semi-annually on all other senior notes. Each of the U.S. dollar and euro-denominated fixed rate senior notes, and Japanese yen-denominated and Swiss franc-denominated private placement notes may be redeemed at a redemption price of 100 % of the principal amount plus a specified make-whole premium and accrued interest, together with swap breakage costs payable to holders of the Japanese yen-denominated and Swiss franc-denominated private placement notes who have entered into cross-currency swap agreements. The company is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants under the indentures and note purchase agreement governing the senior notes, the most restrictive of which limits the ability of the company to pledge certain property and assets as security under borrowing arrangements. The company was in compliance with all covenants related to its senior notes at March 28, 2026.
Thermo Fisher Scientific (Finance I) B.V. (Thermo Fisher International), a wholly-owned finance subsidiary of the company, issued each of the following notes outstanding as of March 28, 2026, included in the table above (collectively, the “Euronotes”) in registered public offerings: the Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2027, the 0.80 % Senior Notes due 2030, the 1.125 % Senior Notes due 2033, the 3.628 % Senior Notes due 2035, the 1.625 % Senior Notes due 2041, and the 2.00 % Senior Notes due 2051. The company has fully and unconditionally guaranteed all of Thermo Fisher International’s obligations under the Euronotes and all of Thermo Fisher International’s other debt securities, and no other subsidiary of the company will guarantee these obligations. Thermo Fisher International is a “finance subsidiary” as defined in Rule 13-01(a)(4)(vi) of the Exchange Act, with no assets or operations other than those related to the issuance, administration and repayment of the Euronotes and other debt securities issued by Thermo Fisher International from time to time. The financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Thermo Fisher International are consolidated in the financial statements of the company.

Note 5 . Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental Matters
The company is currently involved in various stages of investigation and remediation related to environmental matters. The company cannot predict all potential costs related to environmental remediation matters and the possible impact on future operations given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the complexity and interpretation of applicable laws and regulations, the varying costs of alternative cleanup methods and the extent of the company’s responsibility. Expenses for environmental remediation matters related to the costs of installing, operating and maintaining groundwater-treatment systems and other remedial activities related to historical environmental contamination at the company’s domestic and international facilities were not material in any period presented. At March 28, 2026, there have been no material changes to the accruals for pending environmental-related matters disclosed in the company’s 2025 financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. While management believes the accruals for environmental remediation are adequate based on current estimates of remediation costs, the company may be subject to additional remedial or compliance costs due to future events such as changes in existing laws and regulations, changes in agency direction or enforcement policies, developments in remediation technologies or changes in the conduct of the company’s operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Litigation and Related Contingencies
The company is involved in various disputes, governmental and/or regulatory inspections, inquiries, investigations and proceedings, and litigation matters that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The disputes and litigation matters include product liability, intellectual property, employment and commercial issues. Due to the inherent uncertainties associated with pending litigation or claims, the company cannot predict the outcome, nor, with respect to certain pending litigation or claims where no liability has been accrued, make a meaningful estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome. The company has no material accruals for pending litigation or claims for which accrual amounts are not disclosed in these interim financial statements and notes, nor are material losses deemed probable for such matters. It is reasonably possible, however, that an unfavorable outcome that exceeds the company’s current accrual estimate, if any, for one or more such matters could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
Product Liability, Workers Compensation and Other Personal Injury Matters
The company is involved in various proceedings and litigation that arise from time to time in connection with product liability, workers compensation and other personal injury matters. At March 28, 2026, there have been no material changes to the accruals for pending product liability, workers compensation, and other personal injury matters disclosed in the company’s 2025 financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although the company believes that the amounts accrued and estimated insurance recoveries are probable and appropriate based on available information, including actuarial studies of loss estimates, the process of estimating losses and insurance recoveries involves a considerable degree of judgment by management and the ultimate amounts could vary, which could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. Insurance contracts do not relieve the company of its primary obligation with respect to any losses incurred. The collectability of amounts due from its insurers is subject to the solvency and willingness of the insurer to pay, as well as the legal sufficiency of the insurance claims. Management monitors the payment history as well as the financial condition and ratings of its insurers on an ongoing basis.

Restructuring and Other Costs
In the first three months of 2026, restructuring and other costs primarily included continuing charges for headcount reductions and facility consolidations in an effort to streamline operations, impairment of long-lived assets, and, to a lesser extent, net charges for pre-acquisition litigation and other matters. In 2026, severance actions associated with facility consolidations and cost reduction measures affected less than 1 % of the company’s workforce.
As of May 1, 2026, the company has identified restructuring actions, primarily in the Laboratory Products and Biopharma Services segment, that it expects will result in additional charges of approximately $ 290 million, primarily in 2026, and expects to identify additional actions in future periods.

Note 7 . Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes in the accompanying statements of income differs from the provision calculated by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before provision for income taxes due to the following:

Effective tax rate $ 70 4.0 % $ 95 5.8 %
In the first three months of 2026 and 2025, the company recorded deferred tax benefits from the recognition of a tax attribute related to domestication transactions of $ 175 million and $ 125 million, respectively, included in Other adjustments above.
The company has operations and a taxable presence in approximately 70 countries outside the U.S. The company's effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate each year due to certain operations that are subject to tax incentives, state and local taxes, and foreign taxes that are different than the U.S. federal statutory rate.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted. The OBBBA includes a broad range of provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain otherwise expiring provisions, modifications to the international tax framework and the reinstatement of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The OBBBA made changes to certain US corporate tax provisions which are effective beginning in 2026. The enactment of the OBBBA does not have a material impact on the results from operations for the current year or future years.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
As of March 28, 2026, the company had $ 0.42 billion of unrecognized tax benefits substantially all of which, if recognized, would reduce the effective tax rate. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Note 12 . Acquisitions and Divestiture
Acquisitions
The company’s acquisitions have historically been made at prices above the determined fair value of the acquired identifiable net assets, resulting in goodwill, primarily due to expectations of the synergies that will be realized by combining the businesses and the benefits that will be gained from the assembled workforces. These synergies include the elimination of redundant facilities, functions and staffing; use of the company’s existing commercial infrastructure to expand sales of the acquired businesses’ products and services; and use of the commercial infrastructure of the acquired businesses to cost-effectively expand sales of company products and services.
Acquisitions have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, and the acquired companies’ results have been included in the accompanying financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.

2026
On March 24, 2026, the company acquired, within the Laboratory Products and Biopharma Services segment, Clario Holdings, Inc., a U.S.-based leading provider of endpoint data solutions for clinical trials. The acquisition expands the segment’s portfolio with the addition of highly complementary clinical research offerings, enabling customers to gain critical insights from patient data to improve decision-making, accelerate innovation and drive greater productivity. The goodwill recorded as a result of this business combination is not expected to be tax deductible.
The components of the preliminary purchase price and net assets acquired are as follows:
(In millions) Clario

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition of Clario is based on the estimates of the fair value of the purchase price and net assets acquired and is subject to adjustment upon finalization, largely with respect to acquired intangible assets, contract liabilities and the related deferred taxes. Measurements of these items inherently require significant estimates and assumptions.
In 2026, the company also acquired, within the Analytical Instruments segment, two proteomics software companies including one in the U.S. and one in Germany, further strengthening our mass spectrometry and proteomics software capabilities.
The weighted-average amortization periods for definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2026 are 20 years for customer relationships, 7 years for product technology, 3 years for trade names, and 3 years for backlog. The weighted-average amortization period for all definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2026 is 15 years.
