01Where the money goes · FY2025

Where does $100 of Thermo Fisher's money go?

Of every $100 that came in (revenue plus other income), this is where it went.

Thermo Fisher · FY2025

Receipt for every $100

Where $100 of Thermo Fisher's money went in FY2025
Cost of products and services$57.8
Selling, general and administrative$19.2
Research and development$3.1
Restructuring and other items$0.9
Interest on debt$3.1
Income tax$1.2
Kept as net income$14.7
Total$100

Each line = amount ÷ total money in × 100. Lines may not add to exactly $100 because of rounding.

How this is worked out

Cityfort calculation from the FY2025 10-K. Of every $100 that came in during FY2025 (revenue of $44,556 million plus $993 million of interest income): each line = line ÷ $45,549 million × 100. Restructuring and other items = restructuring and other costs ($362 million), other expense ($12 million), losses of companies it partly owns ($41 million) and the share of partners in subsidiaries ($17 million). The 10-K spreads $1,730 million of amortization of acquired intangible assets across cost of revenue and SG&A.

02The business in one line

What does Thermo Fisher do?

Drugmakers, hospitals, universities and other labs pay Thermo Fisher for instruments, the supplies that run them and services such as clinical trials; in FY2025, making those products and services took $57.8 of every $100 that came in, and $14.7 was left as net income.

  • Consumables such as reagents were $18.7 billion of FY2025 revenue, services $18.6 billion and instruments $7.3 billion.
  • Revenue was $44.6 billion in FY2025, below FY2022's $44.9 billion, the first full year with PPD, a year that still included COVID-19 testing and vaccine work. In Q3 FY2026 it was $12.14 billion, up 9% from a year earlier.

03Who pays it

Who pays Thermo Fisher?

  • Pharmaceutical and biotech companies

    Not disclosed

    Buy reagents and production supplies, and pay for clinical trials, drug development and manufacturing. The FY2025 10-K says revenue from this market grew in 2025.

  • Universities, research institutions and government agencies

    Not disclosed

    Buy instruments and supplies for research. The FY2025 10-K says revenue from academic and government customers fell in 2025, with uncertainty in the US and conditions in China.

  • Hospitals and clinical labs

    Not disclosed

    Buy diagnostic tests, transplant tests and supplies through the healthcare market channel.

  • Industrial and environmental labs

    Not disclosed

    Buy analytical instruments for quality control, process control, environmental testing and chip manufacturing.

How spread out the customers are

Thermo Fisher does not disclose revenue by customer type or a share for its largest customers. By region, North America was 51.7% of FY2025 revenue, Europe 26.5%, Asia-Pacific 18.2% and other regions 3.6% (Cityfort calculation from the FY2025 10-K).

04Why it makes money

Why does Thermo Fisher make money?

Most of Thermo Fisher's revenue comes from consumables and services that customers buy again, so profit follows how much labs and drugmakers keep spending.

Consumables and services were 83.6% of FY2025 revenue. COVID-19 testing and vaccine work lifted profit in FY2021: operating income was $25.6 per $100 of revenue that year. As that demand faded it fell to $16.0 in FY2023, and it was $17.4 in FY2025.

Operating income per $100 of revenue

$25.6$17.4

FY2021 to FY2025

  1. Thermo Fisher sells instruments to labs and factories
  2. Customers buy reagents and other supplies to use with them
  3. Its distribution channel delivers its own and other makers' products to the same labs
  4. Drugmakers also pay it to run trials and make medicines
  5. Cash from operations pays mainly for acquisitions, then buybacks and dividends

↺ Step 5 feeds back into step 1.

08What could go wrong

What could go wrong for Thermo Fisher?

  • Debt

    More debt after acquisitions

    Debt rose from $31.3 billion at Dec 31, 2024 to $41.4 billion at Sep 26, 2026, after the filtration and Clario purchases and $7.0 billion of buybacks. Interest expense was $417 million in Q3 FY2026, up from $347 million a year earlier.

    Watch Net debt and interest expense in each 10-Q; buyback amounts.

  • Demand

    Customers' budgets and research funding

    The FY2025 10-K says demand for some products depends on customers' capital spending and government funding policies. Academic and government revenue fell in 2025, and sales in China declined.

    Watch End-market comments in each 10-Q, especially academic and government and China.

  • Regulation

    Tariffs and trade rules

    The 10-K lists US and foreign tariffs, trade barriers and Chinese rules favoring local suppliers among its risks. It names tariffs and related currency effects among the reasons Analytical Instruments' margin fell from 26.2% to 23.0% in FY2025.

    Watch Analytical Instruments segment margin each quarter; trade rule changes.

  • Execution

    Making acquisitions pay off

    Goodwill from acquisitions was $54.3 billion at Sep 26, 2026, close to total equity of $54.8 billion. Clario, bought for $8.875 billion, added $5.9 billion of goodwill. If a business underperforms, goodwill can be written down.

  • Other

    Low tax rate from one-time benefits

    Watch The effective tax rate in each 10-Q and the FY2026 10-K.

  • Competition

    Competition in every market

    The 10-K says Thermo Fisher faces aggressive and able competition in virtually all of its markets, from manufacturers, distributors and service providers, and competes with some of its own large customers and suppliers.

    Clinical research for drugmakers (PPD, $7.9B), drug development and manufacturing for other companies (Patheon, $7.1B), and instrument service. Clario, which collects clinical trial data, was added in March 2026.

  • Instruments ($7.3B)

    Chromatography and mass spectrometry systems that separate and identify chemicals, electron microscopes, including for chipmakers, and chemical analysis equipment.

  • Lab supply distribution ($7.4B)

    The research and safety market channel delivers Thermo Fisher's own, private-label and other companies' products to labs; a separate healthcare channel had $1.8B.

  • Diagnostics

    Clinical diagnostics ($1.1B), immunodiagnostics ($0.9B) and transplant tests ($0.5B) in FY2025. The microbiology business was sold in August 2026.

Think of it like this

For a research lab, Thermo Fisher works like a supplier that sells the equipment, then keeps selling the ingredients the equipment uses.

What it does

  • Does: Makes most of its money from consumables and services, 83.6% of FY2025 revenue
  • Does: Runs clinical trials and makes drugs under contract for drug companies
  • Does: Distributes other companies' lab products as well as its own

What it does not do

  • Does not: Does not split its revenue by customer type, such as drugmakers versus universities
  • Does not: Does not put its yearly outlook in its earnings releases: it gives it on the earnings call
  • Does not: Does not depend on one supplier: its 10-K says no single supplier is material, though some materials have only one or a few sources
