What Changed
Risk factors · Feb 20, 2025 → Feb 24, 202635 added · 37 removed between the two most recent 10-Ks. The risks a company starts — or stops — disclosing are often the story.
Newly disclosed
- For example, incorporating confidential information into AI systems may result in the loss of intellectual property or attorney-client privilege protections, and our use of AI technologies to develop products or services may adversely affect our intellectual property rights or violate third-party intellectual property rights.
- Sales in 2025 for this segment by geographic destination and by revenue type (as a percentage of total 2025 sales) were: Danaher established the Biotechnology segment through the acquisition of Pall in 2015 and expanded the business through the acquisition of Cytiva in 2020.
- The development, adoption, and use of AI technologies are still in their early stages and ineffective, inadequate or premature AI development or deployment practices could result in unintended consequences such as competitive harm, regulatory penalties, legal liability or brand or reputational harm.
- Sales in 2025 by geographic destination (geographic destination refers to the geographic area where the final sale to the Company’s unaffiliated customer is made) and by revenue type (revenue type refers to categorizing the Company’s products between those typically sold to a customer on a recurring basis and those typically sold to a customer on a nonrecurring basis) as a percentage of total 2025 sales were: Sales in North America includes 41% in the United States.
- Incorporating AI into our business operations presents new risks relating to intellectual property, disclosure of confidential data, data protection, data privacy and cybersecurity.
- We are in the early stages of incorporating AI, including machine learning technologies, into our business activities and our product and service offerings.
- Promising acquisitions and investments, such as our pending acquisition of Masimo Corporation

- The clinical diagnostics businesses provide diagnostic testing instruments, consumables and software that enable laboratories and healthcare professionals to accurately diagnose, monitor and manage a wide range of diseases and health conditions.
- The availability of governmental research funding has been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by policy changes, economic conditions and governmental spending reductions, including the downsizing or reduced funding of certain government agencies. 18 Demand for our products and services is also sensitive to changes in customer order patterns, which may be affected by announced price changes, marketing or promotional programs that may accelerate demand in a particular fiscal period and diminish demand in subsequent periods, new product introductions, the timing of industry trade shows and changes in distributor or customer inventory levels due to distributor or customer management thereof or other factors.
- Over the past several years we have not 19 consummated acquisitions at rates similar to our historical practice and going forward we may not be able to consummate acquisitions at rates similar to our historical practice, which can adversely impact our business.
