Capital Markets Day
Convatec announces 'Accelerate' strategy to drive the next chapter of
sustainable and profitable growth
· Accelerate is the evolution of our successful FISBE strategy
· Accelerate is how we will deliver our recently upgraded medium term
guidance
Convatec, a leading medical products and technology company focused on
solutions for the management of chronic conditions, will today present a new
'Accelerate' strategy at a Capital Markets Day.
Accelerate represents an evolution of the company's previous FISBE strategy,
which transformed Convatec into a chronic care leader in each of its care
categories (Advanced Wound Care, Ostomy Care, Continence Care and Infusion
Care). Accelerate is the next chapter, underpinned by the strongest pipeline
of innovation in Convatec's history and will see accelerating sustainable and
profitable growth.
Accelerating growth from a position of strength
Under FISBE, Convatec pivoted to sustainable and profitable growth,
consistently delivering against strategic targets with five years of
broad-based, resilient revenue growth. Convatec now has differentiated
products winning share and significant growth opportunities across categories,
products and geographies.
Building on this strong foundation, Accelerate is structured around four
strategic pillars:
1. Customer-focused growth (C): Deepening relationships with patients,
healthcare professionals, payers and business partners to support more people
living with chronic conditions; growing sales and customer loyalty, increasing
segmental share in key markets, educating medical professionals, supporting
patients and investing in the fastest growing segments - including external
innovation and M&A
2. Technology & Innovation (T): Delivering products and services to
address existing and unmet patient needs; generating and leveraging clinical
evidence; deploying modern, standardised digital tools to drive productivity
and implementing AI applications across key domains
3. Execution Excellence (E): Delivering right first time, on-time
on-budget, at speed and with quality; accelerating innovation cycle time;
focusing on commercial execution, further simplification and productivity and
delivering responsible business goals
4. Culture, purpose and performance (C): Embedding purpose-led,
performance-driven leadership, performing as one team with strong engagement
and best-in-class capabilities
Medium-term guidance
Accelerate is how we will deliver our recently upgraded medium term guidance:
· 6-8% annual organic revenue growth, with acceleration in each
category:
· Advanced Wound Care: Accelerating to high single-digit growth 1

· Ostomy Care: Accelerating to mid/high single-digit growth
· Continence Care: Accelerating to mid/high single-digit growth
· Infusion Care: Accelerating to double-digit growth
· 24-26% adjusted operating margin

Jonny Mason, Chief Executive Officer of Convatec, commented:
"Convatec delivers innovative medical solutions to improve the lives of
millions of people living with chronic conditions. The opportunity for future
growth is substantial. Our Accelerate strategy is how we will deliver the next
chapter of Convatec's exciting story.
"Chronic care markets are underpinned by long-term structural growth trends
including ageing populations and the rising prevalence of chronic conditions.
This creates opportunities to serve more people living with chronic
conditions. Our innovation pipeline of new products is stronger than ever and
represents our commitment to deliver meaningful advances in patient care.
"Thanks to the dedication of over 10,000 colleagues who bring our forever
caring promise to life every day, we are now set to accelerate sustainable and
profitable growth."
