Expects 2006 EPS of at Least $4.05
HAMPTON, N.H., Nov. 8, 2005 — Fisher Scientific International Inc. (NYSE: FSH), a world leader in serving science, today reported record sales, earnings and cash flow for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2005, reflecting continued strength in its core scientific-research and healthcare markets and integration savings associated with the company’s 2004 merger with Apogent.
     “Fisher reported strong results for the quarter with sales, earnings and cash flow reaching new highs,” said Paul M. Montrone, chairman and chief executive officer. “We continue to successfully execute our strategic initiatives and are optimistic about the prospect of our performance heading into 2006.”
Third-Quarter Reported Results
     Fisher Scientific’s third-quarter sales increased 12.7 percent to $1,413.0 million compared with $1,254.3 million in the corresponding period of 2004. Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, sales totaled $1,411.7 million in the third quarter, a 12.6 percent increase over the same quarter in 2004, with 6.6 points of organic growth in the core scientific-research and healthcare markets. Including the expected soft demand for safety-related products, organic sales growth totaled 4.1 percent. Net income for the third quarter more than doubled to $93.5 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, compared with $36.1 million, or 34 cents per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2004.

Business-Segment Results
     Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, sales of scientific products and services in the third quarter totaled $1,058.9 million, an 11.9 percent increase compared with the same period in 2004, with 6.7 points of organic growth in the core scientific-research market. The organic sales growth was driven by strong demand across virtually all segments of this market. Operating income increased to $144.9 million from $112.3 million in the corresponding period of 2004.
     Year to date, excluding the effect of foreign exchange, sales of scientific products and services increased 22.9 percent to $3,047.0 million compared with $2,478.5 million in the first nine months of 2004. Operating income grew 63.3 percent in the nine-month period to $416.5 million compared with $255.1 million in the same period in 2004.
     Sales of healthcare products and services increased to $317.5 million in the third quarter, a 15.5 percent increase compared with $275.0 million in the prior year’s quarter, primarily reflecting broad-based demand for Fisher’s immunohistochemistry products and increased sales of clinical-laboratory supplies.

Recent Transaction
     On Oct. 3, Fisher Scientific completed the acquisition of privately held Duke Scientific Corporation. Utilizing its unique microsphere technology, Duke Scientific produces nanometer-particle microscopic beads used in laboratories for quality control and analysis, instrument calibration, as well as diagnostic-test kits. The acquisition enhances Fisher’s portfolio of higher-margin proprietary products.
Company Outlook
     For 2005, Fisher Scientific expects to achieve its revenue growth target, excluding foreign-exchange effects, of approximately 21 percent. The company is raising its 2005 earnings guidance to a range of $3.52 to $3.57 per diluted share from its previously announced range of $3.47 to $3.52 per diluted share, reflecting continued strong operating results and a lower tax rate. Diluted EPS excluding intangible asset amortization expense, net of tax, is expected to be in the range of $3.79 to $3.84.

     Fisher expects to be at the high end of its operating cash flow range of $560 million to $590 million, reflecting strong operating earnings and continued improvements in working capital management. For 2005, the company expects capital expenditures to total approximately $130 million. As a result, Fisher expects free cash flow for 2005 will be approximately $450 million, exceeding its previous estimate of $420 million.
     Fisher Scientific’s earnings guidance excludes one-time costs for the Apogent transaction of approximately $60 million ($38.5 million, net of tax) related to inventory step-up amounts, restructuring and other integration costs in 2005. These one-time costs include cash charges of approximately $40 million. The adjusted earnings guidance also excludes $71 million ($45 million, net of tax) of charges associated with debt refinancings and $16 million, net of tax, gain on the sale of Atos.
     For 2006, Fisher Scientific expects total revenue growth, including the effect of acquisitions completed to date, to be in the 8 percent to 9 percent range with organic growth in the range of 6 percent to 7 percent. For the full year 2006, Fisher expects operating margins to approach 14 percent. The company projects 2006 earnings will be at least $4.05 per diluted share, with diluted EPS excluding intangible asset amortization expense, net of tax, of at least $4.35. When the company announces its fourth-quarter earnings it will provide a range for 2006 EPS. The company’s guidance does not include the effect of equity-based compensation expense, which is expected to be approximately 30 cents per share, similar to the amount per share expected in 2005. Fisher projects 2006 cash from operations of at least $675 million and free cash flow of at least $525 million.
Conference Call Scheduled
     Fisher will host a teleconference on Wednesday, Nov. 9, to discuss its third-quarter financial results and guidance for 2005 and 2006.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Fisher Scientific’s financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), the company provides certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance and liquidity, as more fully discussed below.
Fisher Scientific defines adjusted net income, adjusted diluted net income per share (also referred to as adjusted diluted earnings per share), adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin as net income, diluted net income per share, operating income and operating margin, respectively, each computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding items that the company considers to be nonrecurring to the company’s operations. The company calculates and discloses these non-GAAP measures because it believes that these measures may assist investors in evaluating trends of the company’s operating results without regard to items that are not considered recurring. Fisher defines adjusted diluted net income per share excluding intangible asset amortization as adjusted diluted net income per share less amortization of intangible assets as calculated on a per diluted share basis. The company calculates and discloses this measure because it believes that the exclusion of the intangibles amortization may assist investors in evaluating the company’s operating results that are consistent over time for both newly acquired and historical businesses. The company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, each computed in accordance with GAAP. Fisher Scientific believes that free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity.
Investors should recognize these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and that the measures presented are not a substitute or alternative for measures of financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP.
