We are awaiting a response from the FDA on our submission and the scheduling of the re-inspection of the facility.
Current report
The Vision Care segment revenue was $784 million and $753 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, an increase of $31 million, or 4%.

This increase included: (i) an increase in net pricing of $21 million, (ii) an increase in volumes of $10 million and (iii) the favorable impact of foreign currencies of $4 million, partially offset by the impact of divestitures and discontinuations of $4 million.

Current report
SG&A expenses were $588 million and $579 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, an increase of $9 million, or 2%.

Current report
The Pharmaceuticals segment profit was $89 million and $37 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, an increase of $52 million.

Current report

The former Biden administration imposed U.S. sanctions and export controls against Russia and Belarus in response to the ongoing war. These sanctions temporarily impacted our ability to distribute our U.S. manufactured contact lenses and our U.S. surgical products to Russia and Belarus. However, in response to these sanctions, we applied for licenses with the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security for both Russia and Belarus and we have all licenses, or other applicable governmental authorizations, necessary to allow us to sell the applicable currently sanctioned products in each of these countries. The Trump administration has extended the sanctions imposed by the former Biden administration and has also indicated that it may impose additional sanctions against Russia and/or secondary sanctions against countries doing business with Russia, if negotiations are not progressed respecting a ceasefire or possible end to the conflict in Ukraine.
Current wording
The imposed U.S. and European Union (“EU”) sanctions and export controls against Russia and Belarus temporarily impacted our ability to distribute certain products to Russia and Belarus. However, in response to these sanctions, we obtained licenses, or other applicable governmental authorizations, necessary to allow us to sell the applicable currently sanctioned products in each of these countries. To date, the challenges associated with the Russia-Ukraine War and related sanctions from the U.S., EU and elsewhere have not yet had a material impact on our operations; although, we continue to review recent and proposed sanctions imposed by the EU, U.S. and others to assess their impact on our operations. Our revenues attributable to Russia, Ukraine and Belarus, in the aggregate, were approximately 3% of our total revenues for both the six months ended June 30, 2026 and year ended December 31, 2025. In addition, we do not have any research or manufacturing facilities in Russia, Ukraine or Belarus.

During February and March 2026, the conflict further escalated and the U.S. and Israel began launching ongoing missile strikes against Iran, which has launched counter strikes against various targets in the region. Our revenues attributable to the impacted regions for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and year ended December 31, 2025 were less than 2% of our total revenues in each period. Sales in Iran are covered by a general Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) license. While we have been monitoring this conflict (including the potential macroeconomic impact of such conflict), and will continue to do so as this conflict continues to evolve, we are unable to predict the impact of this conflict on the Company’s business, both in the impacted region and generally.

Additionally, on February 20, 2026 the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision invalidating tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). In response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision, new Executive Orders were announced aimed at restructuring U.S. tariff policy and exploring alternative statutory authorities under which to impose or maintain tariffs. On March 4, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) ordered the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to liquidate (meaning calculate and finalize) and, where applicable, reliquidate, or correct, certain import entries without regard to duties imposed under the IEEPA. The CIT order provides relief for entries affected by IEEPA tariffs, and, on April 20, 2026, the CBP opened the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (“CAPE”) portal to facilitate the submission and processing of IEEPA duty refund claims. We are evaluating the impact of these developments on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations, however, as of the date of this filing, no amounts related to potential tariff recoveries have been recorded.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”). The effects of this legislation for the Company include extending and modifying certain key Tax Cuts & Jobs Act provisions (both domestic and international). The corporate tax rate remains unchanged but bonus depreciation, domestic R&D expensing, and an adjustment to the interest deduction limitation were retroactive to January 2025. The OBBBA makes additional changes to international tax provisions, including substantive changes to existing global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), foreign-derived intangible income (FDII), and base erosion and anti-abuse tax (BEAT) provisions. These changes are effective for taxable years after 2025. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the enactment of the OBBBA, but has determined that, as of March 31, 2026, it should not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements.
