Henry Schein reported a decrease in net sales by 31.2% compared to Q2 2019, with a GAAP net loss of $11.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share. The results reflect the impact of COVID-19, particularly in the Dental business, but sales improved as the quarter progressed due to the resumption of operations for dental and medical customers.
Q2 GAAP loss per diluted share from continuing operations was $0.08, compared to prior-year GAAP diluted EPS of $0.78.
Q2 non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.00, compared to prior-year non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.84.
Net sales for the quarter were $1.7 billion, a decrease of 31.2% compared to the second quarter of 2019.
The company is cautiously optimistic about the immediate future, focusing on cash management and monitoring global COVID-19 cases.
Due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact to business operations, Henry Schein is not providing 2020 financial guidance at this time.
