Reports Q2 revenue $681.9M vs. $660.4M last year. “We are in the final stages of our robust process for the divestiture of the Products & Healthcare Services segment, and, as a result, have classified this segment as discontinued operations. We are looking forward to concluding the sale of the business and working with a buyer who has the vision and greater flexibility to better support our customers and long-term growth,” said Ed Pesicka, Owens & Minor’s CEO. Pesicka concluded, “I am excited about the opportunities ahead as we transition into a focused, pure-play Patient Direct business. Building on the momentum gained since we entered the Patient Direct space eight years ago, and supported by favorable demographic trends and meaningful scale, we are confident in our ability to lead as the market continues to evolve.”
