Exhibit 99.4

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        On June 16, 2015, Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. ("Hill-Rom") entered into a Merger Agreement (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Hill-Rom, Empire Merger Sub Corp. ("Merger Sub") and Welch Allyn Holdings, Inc. ("Welch Allyn"), providing for the acquisition of Welch Allyn by Hill-Rom. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Welch Allyn with Welch Allyn surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Hill-Rom (the "Merger").

        Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of common stock—Class A, no par value per share, of Welch Allyn and common stock—Class B, $.01 par value per share, of Welch Allyn (collectively, the "Welch Allyn Common Stock"), as of the closing of the Merger, will be converted into the right to receive a portion of the aggregate merger consideration, consisting of cash consideration of $1,625,000,000 (the "Cash Consideration") and 8,133,722 shares of common stock, without par value, of Hill-Rom (the "Equity Consideration") subject to adjustments for net working capital, cash, indebtedness and selling expenses (collectively, the "Merger Consideration"). The Merger Agreement has been approved by the Board of Directors of Hill-Rom and the Board of Directors of Welch Allyn.

        In connection with the Merger, Hill-Rom entered into a commitment letter (the "Commitment Letter") with the Commitment Parties. The Commitment Letter provides that the Commitment Parties will commit to provide Hill-Rom (i) (A) a $1.0 billion senior secured term loan A facility (the "TLA Facility"), (B) a $725 million senior secured term loan B facility (the "TLB Facility") and (C) a $500 million senior secured revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility", and collectively with the TLA Facility and the TLB Facility, the "Senior Secured Facilities"), and (ii) up to a $500 million senior unsecured increasing rate bridge facility (the "Bridge Facility"). The Senior Secured Facilities will be secured by all assets (subject to certain agreed upon exceptions) of Hill-Rom's material domestic subsidiaries. The Commitment Parties have the right to syndicate the Senior Secured Facilities to a group of lenders. In addition, a senior unsecured high-yield note ("High Yield Notes") offering will be undertaken, the successful issuance of which will eliminate the need for the Bridge Facility. The issuance of the High Yield Notes, however, is not guaranteed to be successful, which may require Hill-Rom to utilize either some or all of the Bridge Facility for a portion of the acquisition funding costs.

        The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, referred to as the pro forma financial statements, present the combination of the historical consolidated financial statements of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn, adjusted to give effect to the Merger and the incurrence of debt financing to complete the Merger.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, referred to as the pro forma balance sheet, combines the unaudited historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of Hill-Rom as of March 31, 2015 and the unaudited historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of Welch Allyn as of April 4, 2015, to give effect to Hill-Rom's acquisition of Welch Allyn and related financing transactions (collectively, the "Transactions"), as if they had occurred on March 31, 2015.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 assumes that the Merger took place on October 1, 2013, the beginning of Hill-Rom's most recently completed fiscal year. Hill-Rom's audited consolidated statement of income for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 has been combined with Welch Allyn's audited consolidated statement of income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for the six months ended March 31, 2015 assumes that the Merger took place on October 1, 2013, the beginning of Hill-Rom's most recently completed fiscal year. Hill-Rom's unaudited consolidated statement of income for the six months ended March 31, 2015

has been combined with the combination of Welch Allyn's unaudited consolidated statement of income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and Welch Allyn's unaudited consolidated statement of income for the three months ended April 4, 2015. Given the different fiscal year ends of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn, the Welch Allyn unaudited consolidated statement of income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 has been included in both the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 and the six months ended March 31, 2015 pro forma condensed combined income statements. Sales and net income for Welch Allyn for the three months ended December 31, 2014 were $192.1 million and $12.6 million, respectively. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for the six months ended March 31, 2015 are collectively referred to as the pro forma income statements.

        The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for purposes of developing the pro forma financial information for illustrative purposes. The actual results reported in periods following the Transactions may differ significantly from that reflected in these pro forma financial statements for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, differences between the assumptions used to prepare these pro forma financial statements and actual amounts, cost savings from operating efficiencies and impact of potential synergies, the impact of the incremental costs incurred in integrating Welch Allyn's operations, changes in the allocation of purchase price, and the actual interest rates applicable to the funds borrowed to finance the acquisition of Welch Allyn.

        As a result, the pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of what the financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Transactions been completed on the applicable dates of this pro forma financial information. The pro forma financial statements are based upon the historical financial statements of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn and do not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations after giving effect to the transaction.

        The pro forma adjustments and related assumptions are described in the accompanying notes presented on the following pages. The pro forma adjustments are based on assumptions relating to the consideration paid and the allocation of the purchase price thereof to the acquired assets and liabilities of Welch Allyn based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The final purchase price and the allocation thereof will differ from that reflected in the pro forma financial statements after final valuation procedures are performed and amounts are finalized.

        The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is derived from the historical financial statements of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn and has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the acquisition, including the financing of the acquisition of Welch Allyn by Hill-Rom. This pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the accompanying notes of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn.

Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements

Note 1—Basis of presentation

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. GAAP and are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Hill-Rom Holdings, Inc. for the year ended September 30, 2014 and six months ended March 31, 2015 and the historical consolidated financial statements of Welch Allyn Holdings, Inc. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and the combination of the three month periods ended December 31, 2014 and April 4, 2015. Sales and net income for the Welch Allyn three month period ended December 31, 2014 included in both pro forma periods were $192.1 million and $12.6 million, respectively.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn for the year ended September 30, 2014 and six months ended March 31, 2015 give effect to Hill-Rom's acquisition of Welch Allyn.

        We prepared the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information using the acquisition method of accounting, which is based upon Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations, the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB") standard related to business combinations. The business combination standard incorporates the FASB standard related to fair value measurement concepts. We have adopted both FASB standards related to business combinations and fair value measurements as required. The FASB standard issued related to business combinations requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. In addition, the standard establishes that the consideration transferred be measured at the closing date of the acquisition at the then-current market price. The transaction fees and expenses have been excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statements as they are non-recurring. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the FASB's standard related to fair value measurements, defines the term "fair value" and sets forth the valuation requirements for any asset or liability measured at fair value, expands related disclosure requirements and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of inputs used to develop the fair value measures. Fair value is defined in the standard as "the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date." This is an exit price concept for the valuation of the asset or liability. In addition, market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal (or the most advantageous) market for the asset or liability. Fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use by these market participants. As a result of these standards, we may be required to record assets that we do not intend to use or sell (defensive assets) and/or to value assets at fair value measurements that do not reflect our intended use of those assets. Many of these fair value measurements can be highly subjective, and it is possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstances, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts.

        The assumptions and related pro forma adjustments described below have been developed based on assumptions and adjustments, including assumptions relating to the consideration paid and the allocation thereof to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Welch Allyn based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The final purchase price allocation will differ from that reflected in the pro forma financial statements after final valuation procedures are performed and amounts are finalized.

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are preliminary, are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what our actual consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position would have been had the transactions occurred on the date assumed, nor are they indicative of our future consolidated results of operations or financial

6


position. The actual results reported in periods following the transactions may differ significantly from those reflected in these pro forma financial statements for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, differences between the assumptions used to prepare these pro forma financial statements and actual amounts, cost savings from operating efficiencies, timing and impact of potential synergies, the impact of the incremental costs incurred in integrating Welch Allyn's operations, changes in the allocation of purchase price, and the actual interest rates applicable to the funds borrowed to finance the acquisition of Welch Allyn. As a result, the pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of what the financial condition or results of operations would have been had the transactions been completed on the applicable dates of this pro forma financial information. The pro forma financial statements are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of Hill-Rom and Welch Allyn and do not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations after giving effect to the transaction.

Note 3—Purchase Price Allocation

        The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet has been adjusted to reflect the allocation of the preliminary estimated purchase price to identifiable assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed, with the excess recorded as goodwill. The final purchase price allocation may be different than that reflected in the pro forma purchase price allocation presented herein, and this difference may be material. The purchase price allocation in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements is based upon an estimated purchase price of approximately $2,228.9 million. This amount was derived in accordance with the Merger Agreement based on (i) 8,133,722 shares of Hill-Rom common stock, valued at $425.0 million based on the volume weighted average price of Hill-Rom's common stock for the preceding 10 trading days as reported by Bloomberg at the close of trading on June 16, 2015 and (ii) $1,625.0 million of cash consideration, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

        The total preliminary Merger consideration is calculated as follows ($ in millions):

Cash consideration

  $ 1,625.0  

Estimated merger consideration adjustments:

       

Estimated working capital adjustment

    8.6  

Cash on hand

    174.5  

Indebtedness

    (4.2 )

Adjusted cash consideration

    1,803.9  

Hill-Rom common stock to be issued

    425.0  

Total preliminary merger consideration

  $ 2,228.9  

        The actual value of Hill-Rom common stock to be issued in the Merger will depend on the market price of shares of Hill-Rom common stock at the closing date of the Merger, and therefore the actual purchase price will fluctuate with the market price of Hill-Rom common stock until the Merger is consummated.

    B.
    Interest expense:

        In connection with the Merger, Hill-Rom entered into a Commitment Letter with the Commitment Parties. The Commitment Letter provides that the Commitment Parties will commit to provide Hill-Rom (i) (A) a $1.0 billion TLA Facility, (B) a $725 million senior secured TLB Facility and (C) a $500 million senior secured Revolving Facility, and (ii) up to a $500 million senior unsecured increasing rate Bridge Facility. The Senior Secured Facilities will be secured by all assets (subject to certain agreed upon exceptions) of Hill-Rom's material domestic subsidiaries. The Commitment Parties have the right to syndicate the Senior Secured Facilities to a group of lenders.

        In addition, a senior unsecured High Yield Notes offering will be undertaken, the successful issuance of which will eliminate the need for the Bridge Facility. The issuance of the High Yield Notes, however is not guaranteed to be successful, which may require Hill-Rom to utilize either some or all of the Bridge Facility for a portion of the acquisition funding costs. Any borrowings on the Bridge Facility

10


are expected to be repaid by the issuance of High Yield Notes upon completion of such an offering. Outstanding borrowings on the Bridge Facility would carry higher interest rates, resulting in an additional estimated $10.0 million of interest expense over the 18 month pro forma period, with an increasing differential thereafter.

        The following reconciliation provides additional details behind the pro forma interest expense adjustment reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement ($ in millions):

(1)

(2)
Elimination of interest on Hill-Rom existing debt to be repaid with the proceeds of the planned borrowings.

        An increase in the variable interest rates assumed in the weighted average interest rate of 0.125% would result in an increase in interest expense for the 18 month pro forma period of approximately $1.5 million.
