Melville, N.Y.—Henry Schein, Inc. announced that Stanley M. Bergman will retire as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at the end of the year after 45 years at the Company, including more than 35 years as CEO. Bergman will continue to lead Henry Schein in his current role until his retirement and will remain as Chairman thereafter. The Board is commencing a formal search process in conjunction with a nationally recognized executive search firm and will consider internal and external candidates.

During Bergman’s tenure as CEO, Henry Schein’s revenue grew from $225 million in 1989 to almost $13 billion in 2024, representing an approximate compound annual growth rate of 17.5%, while the Company’s market capitalization grew from $290 million at the time of its IPO in 1995 to a current value of almost $9 billion. Further, Henry Schein has delivered a non-GAAP EPS CAGR of 12.4% over this same period.

“It has been my greatest privilege to lead Team Schein over the past 35-plus years. Guided by our purpose-driven mission, we have built an agile Company that is able to meet the changing needs of our customers, has created significant shareholder value, and is well positioned for the future. As part of succession planning, the Company has focused on developing the next generation of leaders and earlier this year simplified the business by separating into three operating divisions, each with outstanding leadership. I fully expect that Andrea Albertini, CEO of the Global Distribution Group who also has responsibility for the Global Technology Group, and Tom Popeck, CEO of the Health Care Specialties Group, together with the rest of the Company’s Executive Management Committee, will elevate Henry Schein to new heights by continuing to advance the BOLD+1 strategy and working with KKR on value creation initiatives and a broad-based employee ownership program,” Bergman said.
