P. Cody Phipps
President & Chief Executive Officer
Dear Shareholders, Teammates, Customers and Friends:
After joining Owens & Minor as president and chief executive officer at the mid-point of 2015,
I elected to devote my first 100 days to an intense immersion into our business. During these
months, I developed a keen appreciation for our legacy in healthcare. For more than a century,
Owens & Minor has played a vital role in connecting the world of medical products
to the point of care. After working through the immersion process with our board of directors
and company leaders, we produced a transformation agenda that we believe will position
Owens & Minor for sustained profitable growth.
Our healthcare industry customers—both providers and manufacturers—are facing
unprecedented challenges. We must find innovative ways to serve their needs while also growing
our company. As we move forward, we intend to act from a position of strength to create new
services and point of care solutions to attack the complexity of the current healthcare system.
As we enter 2016, I am pleased with the progress we are making with our transformation
agenda to re-position Owens & Minor as a global healthcare services company. We have
launched initiatives designed to improve near-term performance and strengthen our value-
added services for both provider and manufacturer customers. We are also investing in new
global resources and capabilities, which will expand our healthcare solutions and position the
company for long-term success.
Our transformation agenda has four key elements:
• Build and align the senior team
• Strengthen our domestic services business
• Enhance the execution of our current growth strategies
• Develop future strategies
In my view, one of the most important catalysts for our transformation agenda was establishing
the right team to lead our efforts, which are now global in scope. To that end, I made a
number of enhancements to build and align our leadership group, bringing in new talent and
changing certain leadership roles. I also simplified reporting structures and created clear lines
of accountability. I am very pleased with our leaders and the progress they are already making
toward achieving our goals.
As for strengthening our domestic business, we have taken a big first step by changing the
way we manage our domestic platform. We developed a new, simplified regional structure for
sales and operations, which we began implementing in the first quarter. In addition, we are
implementing enhanced standard operating procedures, and we are moving toward a shared
services approach. These changes are designed to simplify the organization, improve our
service to customers, and achieve continuous operations improvement—key goals for the future
of our organization.
The third element of our transformation agenda is to enhance the execution of our growth
strategies. A key component is optimization of our platform in Europe, where the team has
made excellent progress in stabilizing the business, which spans more than 11 countries.
The O&M Movianto team is now well-positioned to focus on driving growth by developing new
services and diversifying its growing customer base. An additional growth strategy is focused on
optimizing the Clinical & Procedural Solutions (CPS) business. This global business unit focuses
on the needs of provider and manufacturer customers by delivering custom-procedure trays and
minor kits and trays used in clinical settings. ArcRoyal and Medical Action, which we acquired
in 2014, will play a key role in the future of this business. The CPS team will also expand and
develop our global sourcing efforts, including the efforts of our Mira MedSource team in Asia.
To date, we have made solid progress in these important growth areas.
The final element of our transformation agenda is to develop future strategies for sustained
profitable growth. As a team, we will begin to tackle this goal later in the year. We intend to
embark on a review of our business and our market opportunities in order to refresh our long-
term strategic plan.
I am very pleased with the progress we are making with our transformation agenda, and I am
genuinely excited by the potential that I see in our business. Our focus going forward will be on
delivering consistent earnings growth, while investing in our business.
Finally, I would like to comment on our financial and operational performance in 2015. By
working together and staying focused on our goals, we were able to achieve record earnings
for the year. I commend our teammates for their efforts. This was a significant achievement,
especially in the face of great change in 2015. Everyone on the team is to be congratulated for
these record breaking results.
As we bring our comprehensive solutions to market, we know that our customers trust us
to deliver the results they need. This trust is an important part of our commercial value in
the market, and it is our responsibility to uphold the values that represent the legacy of our
company. These values are timeless. We will work hard with integrity. We will support the
communities that we serve. And, we will take care of our teammates. With newly energized
leadership, a great culture, and a new plan for the future, we are well-positioned to drive
sustained, profitable growth in the years ahead. Our future is bright!
Thank you to our shareholders, customers, and friends for your support throughout the year.
Sincerely,
P. Cody Phipps
President & Chief Executive Officer

Part I
Item 1. Business
General
Owens & Minor, Inc. and subsidiaries (we, us or our), a Fortune 500 company headquartered in Richmond, Virginia,
is a leading global healthcare services company that connects the world of medical products to the point of care. We provide
vital supply chain assistance to the providers of healthcare services and the manufacturers of healthcare products, supplies and
devices. With fully developed networks in the United States and Europe, we are equipped to serve a customer base ranging
from hospitals, integrated healthcare systems, group purchasing organizations, and the U.S. federal government, to
manufacturers of life-science and medical devices and supplies, including pharmaceuticals in Europe. The description of our
business should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and supplementary data included in this Form
10-K.
Founded in 1882, Owens & Minor was incorporated in 1926 in Richmond, Virginia. We focus our operations on
healthcare logistics services and provide our customers with a service portfolio that covers procurement, inventory
management, delivery and sourcing of products for the healthcare market. Through organic growth and acquisitions over many
years, we significantly expanded and strengthened our company, achieving national scale in the United States healthcare
market. In 2012, through the acquisition of the Movianto Group (Movianto), we entered into third-party logistics services for
the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries in the European market, leveraging an existing platform that
also expands our ability to serve our United States-based manufacturer customers on an international level.
On October 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Medical Action Industries Inc. (Medical Action), a leading
producer of surgical kits and procedure trays for the healthcare market. On November 1, 2014, we acquired ArcRoyal, a
privately held surgical kitting company based in Ireland (ArcRoyal). These acquisitions further expanded our capabilities to
provide our provider and manufacturer customers a range of kitting services, including the ability to combine instruments and
supplies into sterilized custom procedure trays used in a variety of clinical procedures, such as cardiac and orthopedic
procedures, and sterilized minor procedure kits and trays which are used in a wide variety of minor surgical and medical
procedures, such as I.V. start kits and suture removal. This approach enables healthcare providers to track and manage the
supply chain for products, supplies and instruments used in clinical settings. The combined consideration for these two
acquisitions was $261.6 million, net of cash acquired, and including debt assumed of $13.4 million (capitalized lease
obligations).
We report our business under two segments: Domestic and International. The Domestic segment includes all
functions relating to our role as a medical supply logistics company providing distribution, kitting (including Medical Action)
and logistics services to healthcare providers and manufacturers in the United States. The International segment consists of
Movianto and ArcRoyal. Financial information by segment and geographic area appears in Note 20, “Segment Information,”
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this annual report.
The Domestic Segment
Healthcare product volumes in the United States are dependent on the rates of utilization of medical/surgical
procedures by consumers, which are subject to fluctuation according to the condition of the domestic economy and other
factors, such as changes in regulation affecting reimbursement. Aside from consumer-driven activity, the healthcare industry is
also experiencing growing demand for advanced logistics and inventory management services from healthcare providers and
manufacturers that are focused on achieving more efficient and cost-effective supply-chain operations.
In the United States, healthcare supply distributors contract with group purchasing organizations (GPOs) that
negotiate distribution contracts on behalf of their healthcare provider members and also contract directly with healthcare
providers and manufacturers for their services. Healthcare providers are increasingly consolidating into larger, more
sophisticated networks that are actively seeking reductions in the total cost of delivering healthcare products. These healthcare
providers face complex financial challenges, including managing the cost of purchasing, receiving, storing and tracking
supplies.
Economic trends have also driven significant consolidation within the healthcare products distribution and logistics
industry due to the competitive advantages enjoyed by larger organizations. Among these advantages are the ability to serve
customers in widespread geographic locations, purchase inventory in large volume, develop more sophisticated technology
platforms and decision-support systems and provide expertise to healthcare providers and manufacturers to help reduce supply
chain costs.

We offer a comprehensive portfolio of products and services to healthcare providers and manufacturers in the
United States. Our portfolio of medical and surgical supplies includes branded products purchased in large volume from
manufacturers and our own proprietary private-label products, which are internally sourced through our sourcing capabilities
abroad or through a select group of manufacturers. We store our products at our distribution centers and provide delivery of
these products, along with related services, to healthcare providers around the nation. Our kitting capabilities offer the
combining of instruments and supplies into custom and minor procedure kits and trays which are assembled and delivered
based on the specifications provided by the healthcare provider customer. For sterilized kits and trays, we utilize one or more
third-party sterilization contractors.
Most supplies are delivered using a leased fleet and almost all of our delivery personnel are our teammates, ensuring
a consistent level of performance and customer service. In situations where they are more cost-effective and timely, we use
contract carriers and parcel delivery services. We customize product deliveries, whether the orders are “just-in-time,” “low-
unit-of-measure,” pallets, or truckloads. We also customize delivery schedules according to customers’ needs to increase their
efficiency in receiving and storing products. We have deployed low-unit-of-measure automated picking modules in our larger
distribution centers to maximize efficiency, and our distribution center teammates use voice-pick technology to enhance speed
and accuracy in performing certain warehousing processes.
We also offer additional services to healthcare providers including supplier management, analytics, inventory
management, outsourced resource management, clinical supply management and business process consulting. These value-
add services help providers improve their process for contracting with vendors, purchasing supplies and streamlining inventory.
These services include our operating room-focused inventory management program that helps healthcare providers manage
suture and endo-mechanical inventory, as well as our customizable surgical supply service that includes the kitting and delivery
of surgical supplies in procedure-based totes to coincide with the healthcare providers' surgical schedule.
The majority of our distribution arrangements compensate us on a cost-plus percentage basis, under which a
negotiated percentage mark-up is added to the contract cost of the product agreed to by the customer and the supplier. We price
our services for certain other arrangements under activity-based pricing models. In these cases, pricing depends upon the type,
level and/or complexity of services that we provide to customers, and in some cases we do not take title to the product
(although we maintain certain custodial risks). As a result, this fee-for-service pricing model aligns the fees we charge with the
cost of the services provided, which is a component of selling, general and administrative expenses, rather than with the cost of
the product, which is a component of cost of goods sold.
We offer a variety of programs and services dedicated to providing logistics and marketing solutions to our
manufacturer customers as well. These programs and services are designed to help manufacturers increase market share, drive
sales growth, and achieve operational efficiencies. Manufacturer programs are generally negotiated on an annual basis and
provide for enhanced levels of support that are aligned with the manufacturer’s annual objectives and growth goals. We have
contractual arrangements with manufacturers participating in these programs that provide performance-based incentives to us,
as well as cash discounts for prompt payment. Program incentives can be earned on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.
All of our distribution and logistics services utilize a common infrastructure of distribution centers, equipment,
technology, and delivery methods (internal fleet, common carrier or parcel services). We operate a network of 42 distribution
centers located throughout the continental United States, which are strategically located to efficiently serve our provider and
manufacturer customers, and two kitting facilities for the production of custom and minor procedure kits and trays. A
significant investment in information technology supports our business including warehouse management systems, customer
service and ordering functions, demand forecasting programs, electronic commerce, data warehousing, decision support and
supply-chain management. During 2014, we completed a three-year, $54 million investment in our information technology
infrastructure in the United States designed to achieve operational and data-management efficiencies and improve customer
service.

The International Segment
Our International segment includes Movianto and ArcRoyal. Through Movianto, we provide contract logistics
services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries, offering a broad range of supply chain logistics
services to manufacturers. Our warehousing and transportation offerings include storage, controlled-substance handling, cold-
chain, emergency and export delivery, inventory management and pick & pack services. Our other services include order-to-
cash, re-labeling, customer service and returns management. Through our kitting operations in ArcRoyal, we offer custom
procedure trays to manufacturers and healthcare provider customers throughout Europe.
Our International segment has a network of 22 logistics centers and one kitting facility in 11 European countries,
including Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland and the
United Kingdom. To serve our clients, we use a fleet of leased and owned trucks, including cold-chain delivery trucks. The
majority of our drivers are our International teammates, although contract carriers and parcel services are used in situations
where they are more cost-effective and timely.
Client logistics contracts in our International segment are generally for three-year terms with rolling automatic one-
year extension periods. The tendering or competitive bidding process typically takes 12 to 18 months from the initial client
request for proposal until becoming operational. We offer significant flexibility to tailor contracts to specific client
requirements, and benefit from the expansion of clients into additional European countries. Pricing may be activity-based, with
fees determined by clients’ particular requirements for warehousing, handling and delivery services, or it may be based on buy-
sell wholesaler arrangements for product distribution.
Our Customers
We currently provide distribution, kitting, outsourced resource management and/or consulting services to thousands
of healthcare provider customers. These customers include multi-facility networks of healthcare providers offering a broad
spectrum of healthcare services to a particular market or markets (IHNs) as well as smaller, independent hospitals in the United
States. In addition to contracting with healthcare providers at the IHN level and through Group Purchasing Organizations
(GPOs), we also contract with other types of healthcare providers including surgery centers, physicians’ practices and smaller
networks of hospitals that have joined together to negotiate terms. We have contracts to provide distribution services to the
members of a number of national GPOs, including Novation, LLC (Novation), MedAssets Inc. (MedAssets), Premier, Inc.
(Premier) and HealthTrust Purchasing Group (HPG). In 2012 and 2013, we renewed the distribution agreements with all four
GPOs to continue our status as an authorized distributor for their member healthcare providers and allow us to compete with
other authorized distributors for the business of individual members. Below is a summary of these agreements:

* Agreement also includes two one-year renewal options after the initial term
We have our own independent relationships with most of our hospital customers through separate contractual
commitments that may or may not be based upon the terms of our agreement with the GPO. As a result, the termination or
expiration of an agreement with a particular GPO would not necessarily mean that we would lose the members of such GPO as
our customers. In 2015, Novation became part of Vizient which is expected to acquire MedAssets in early 2016. We do not
expect this transaction to have a significant impact on our operations in 2016.
Our supplier and manufacturer customers represent the largest and most influential healthcare manufacturers in the
industry. We have long-term relationships with these important companies in the healthcare supply chain and have long
provided traditional distribution services to them. We currently have relationships with approximately 1,300 supplier and
manufacturer customers. In the Domestic segment, sales of products supplied by subsidiaries of Covidien Ltd. accounted for
approximately 14% of our consolidated net revenue for 2015. Sales of products supplied by Johnson & Johnson Health Care
Systems, Inc. were approximately 10% of our consolidated net revenue for 2015.
5
In Europe, we serve a diverse customer base of approximately 600 manufacturer clients, including pharmaceutical,
biotechnology and medical device manufacturers.
Asset Management
In the healthcare supply distribution industry, a significant investment in inventory and accounts receivable is
required to meet the rapid delivery requirements of customers and provide high-quality service. As a result, efficient asset
management is essential to our profitability. We continually work to refine our processes to optimize inventory and collect
accounts receivable.
Inventory
We are focused in our efforts to optimize inventory and continually consolidate products and collaborate with
supply-chain partners on inventory productivity initiatives. When we convert large-scale, multi-state IHN customers to our
distribution network, an additional investment in inventory in advance of expected sales is generally required. We actively
monitor inventory for obsolescence and use inventory turnover and other operational metrics to measure our performance in
managing inventory.
Accounts Receivable
In the normal course of business, we provide credit to our domestic and European customers and use credit
management techniques to evaluate customers’ creditworthiness and facilitate collection. These techniques may include
performing initial and ongoing credit evaluations of customers based primarily on financial information provided by them and
from sources available to the general public. We also use third-party information from sources such as credit reporting
agencies, banks and other credit references. We actively manage our accounts receivable to minimize credit risk, days sales
outstanding (DSO) and accounts receivable carrying costs. Our ability to accurately invoice and ship product to customers
enhances our collection results and drives our positive DSO performance. We also have arrangements with certain customers
under which they make deposits on account, either because they do not meet our standards for creditworthiness or in order to
obtain more favorable pricing.
Competition
The medical/surgical supply distribution and healthcare logistics industries are highly competitive in the United
States and Europe. The U.S. sector includes Owens & Minor, Inc., as well as two major nationwide manufacturers who also
provide distribution services, Cardinal Health, Inc. and privately-held Medline, Inc. In addition, we compete with a number of
regional and local distributors and customer self-distribution models. Major logistics competitors serving healthcare
manufacturers in the United States and in Europe include United Parcel Service, FedEx Corporation, Deutsche Post DHL and
Alloga, as well as local competitors in specific countries.
Regulation
The medical/surgical supply distribution and healthcare logistics industries in the United States are subject to
regulation by federal, state and local government agencies. Each of our distribution centers is licensed to distribute medical and
surgical supplies, as well as certain pharmaceutical and related products, and each of our kitting facilities is licensed to perform
kit assembly operations. We must comply with laws and regulations, including those governing operations, storage,
transportation, safety and security standards for each of our distribution centers and kitting facilities, of the Food and Drug
Administration, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Drug Enforcement Agency, the Department of
Transportation, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Homeland Security, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, and state boards of pharmacy, or similar state licensing boards and regulatory agencies. We are also
subject to various federal and state laws intended to protect the privacy of health or other personal information and to prevent
healthcare fraud and abuse. We believe we are in material compliance with all statutes and regulations applicable to our
operations, including the Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), Medicare and Medicaid, as
well as applicable general employment and employee health and safety laws and regulations.
6
Our International business is subject to local, country and European-wide regulations, including those promulgated
by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Medical Devices Directive. In addition, quality requirements are imposed
by healthcare industry manufacturers which audit our operations on a regular basis. Each of our logistics centers in Europe is
licensed to distribute medicinal, medical and surgical supplies, as well as certain pharmaceutical and related products,
according to the country-specific requirements. Our logistics centers in Europe are able to store ambient, cold-chain or deep
frozen products, are licensed to distribute narcotic products and pharmaceutical products included in clinical trials and are
licensed for secondary packaging activities for medicinal products. Movianto is also ISO 9001:2008 certified across the entire
enterprise. Our Ireland-based kitting facility is licensed to assemble kits and sell them in the markets we serve and operates in
compliance with the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/EU 13485:2012 standards. We believe we are in material
compliance with all applicable statutes and regulations, as well as prevailing industry best practices, in the conduct of our
European business operations.
Employees
At the end of 2015, we employed approximately 5,800 full- and part-time teammates in the Domestic segment and
2,300 in the International segment. Most of our International teammates are covered by collective bargaining agreements.
Ongoing teammate training is critical to performance and we use Owens & Minor University®, an in-house training facility, to
offer classes in leadership, management development, finance, operations, safety and sales. We continue to have positive
relationships with teammates and European works councils.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Set forth below are certain risk factors that we currently believe could materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition and prospects. These risk factors are in addition to those mentioned in other parts of this report and are not
all of the risks that we face. We could also be affected by risks that we currently are not aware of or that we currently do not
consider material to our business.
Competition
The medical/surgical supply distribution industry in the United States is highly competitive and characterized by intense
pricing pressure. We compete with other national distributors and a number of regional and local distributors, as well as
customer self-distribution models and, to a lesser extent, certain third-party logistics companies. Competitive factors within the
medical/surgical supply distribution industry include market pricing, total delivered product cost, product availability, the
ability to fill and invoice orders accurately, delivery time, range of services provided, efficient product sourcing, inventory
management, information technology, electronic commerce capabilities, and the ability to meet customer-specific requirements.
Our success is dependent on the ability to compete on the above factors, while managing internal costs and expenses. These
competitive pressures could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
In addition, in recent years, the healthcare industry in the United States has experienced and continues to experience
significant consolidation in response to cost containment legislation and general market pressures to reduce costs. This
consolidation of our customers and suppliers generally gives them greater bargaining power to reduce the pricing available to
them, which may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.
7
The healthcare third-party logistics business in both the United States and Europe also is characterized by intense
competition from a number of international, regional and local companies, including large conventional logistics companies
and internet based non-traditional competitors that are moving into the healthcare and pharmaceutical distribution business.
This competitive market places continuous pricing pressure on us from customers and manufacturers that could adversely affect
our results of operations and financial condition if we are unable to continue to increase our revenues and to offset margin
reductions caused by pricing pressures through cost control measures.
Dependence on Group Purchasing Organizations and Significant Healthcare Provider Customers
In 2015, our top ten customers in the United States represented approximately 29% of our consolidated net revenue. In
addition, in 2015, approximately 81% of our consolidated net revenue was from sales to member hospitals under contract with
our largest group purchasing organizations (GPO): Novation, MedAssets and Premier. We could lose a significant healthcare
provider customer or GPO relationship if an existing contract expires without being replaced or is terminated by the customer
or GPO prior to its expiration. Although the termination of our relationship with a given GPO would not necessarily result in
the loss of all of the member hospitals as customers, any such termination of a GPO relationship, or a significant individual
healthcare provider customer relationship, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial
condition.
Dependence on Significant Domestic Suppliers
In the United States, we distribute products from nearly 1,300 suppliers and are dependent on these suppliers for the
continuing supply of products. In 2015, sales of products of our ten largest domestic suppliers accounted for approximately
57% of consolidated net revenue. We rely on suppliers to provide agreeable purchasing and delivery terms and performance
incentives. Our ability to sustain adequate operating earnings has been, and will continue to be, partially dependent upon our
ability to obtain favorable terms and incentives from suppliers, as well as suppliers continuing use of third-party distributors to
sell and deliver their products. A change in terms by a significant supplier, or the decision of such a supplier to distribute its
products directly to healthcare providers rather than through third-party distributors, could have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations and financial condition.
Integration of Acquisitions
In connection with our growth strategy, we from time to time acquire other businesses that we believe will expand or
complement our existing businesses and operations. The integration of acquisitions involves a number of significant risks,
which may include but are not limited to, the following:
• Expenses and difficulties in the transition and integration of operations and systems;
• Retention of current customers and the ability to obtain new customers;
• The assimilation and retention of personnel, including management personnel, in the acquired businesses;
• Accounting, tax, regulatory and compliance issues that could arise;
• Difficulties in implementing uniform controls, procedures and policies in our acquired companies, or in remediating
control deficiencies in acquired companies not formerly subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
• Unanticipated expenses incurred or charges to earnings based on unknown circumstances or liabilities;
•
• General economic conditions in the markets in which the acquired businesses operate; and
• Difficulties encountered in conducting business in markets where we have limited experience and expertise.
Failure to realize the synergies and other benefits we expect from the acquisition at the pace we anticipate;
If we are unable to successfully complete and integrate our strategic acquisitions in a timely manner, our business,
growth strategies and results of operations could be adversely affected.
International Operations
Operations outside the United States involve issues and risks, including but not limited to the following, any of which
could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations:
• Lack of familiarity with and expertise in conducting business in foreign markets;
•
• Unexpected changes in foreign regulations or conditions relating to labor, economic or political environment, and
Foreign currency fluctuations and exchange risk;
social norms or requirements;
• Adverse tax consequences and difficulties in repatriating cash generated or held abroad;
• Local economic environments, such as in the European markets served by Movianto and ArcRoyal, including
recession, inflation, indebtedness, currency volatility and competition; and
8
• Changes in trade protection laws and other laws affecting trade and investment, including import/export regulations in
both the United States and foreign countries.
International operations are also subject to risks of violation of laws that prohibit improper payments to and bribery of
government officials and other individuals and organizations. These laws include the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the
U.K. Bribery Act and other similar laws and regulations in foreign jurisdictions, any violation of which could result in
substantial liability and a loss of reputation in the marketplace. Failure to comply with these laws also could subject us to civil
and criminal penalties that could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Changes in the Healthcare Environment in the United States
We, along with our customers and suppliers, are subject to extensive federal and state regulations relating to healthcare
as well as the policies and practices of the private healthcare insurance industry. In recent years, there have been a number of
government and private initiatives to reduce healthcare costs and government spending. These changes have included an
increased reliance on managed care; reductions in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement levels; consolidation of competitors,
suppliers and customers; a shift in healthcare provider venues from acute care settings to clinics, physician offices and home
care; and the development of larger, more sophisticated purchasing groups. All of these changes place additional financial
pressure on healthcare provider customers, who in turn seek to reduce the costs and pricing of products and services provided
by us. We expect the healthcare industry to continue to change significantly and these potential changes, which may include a
reduction in government support of healthcare services, adverse changes in legislation or regulations, and further reductions in
healthcare reimbursement practices, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
The Affordable Care Act, enacted in 2010 includes, among other things, provisions for expanded Medicaid eligibility
and access to healthcare insurance as well as increased taxes and fees on certain corporations and medical products. The
provisions of the Affordable Care Act will not be fully implemented until 2018 and, although there is no way to predict the full
impact of the law on the healthcare industry and our operations, its implementation may have an adverse effect on both
customer purchasing and payment behavior and supplier product prices and terms of sale, all of which could adversely affect
our results of operations.
Regulatory Requirements
We must comply with numerous laws and regulations in the United States, Europe, Asia and other countries where we
operate. We also are required to hold permits and licenses and to comply with the operational and security standards of various
governmental bodies and agencies. Any failure to comply with these laws and regulations or any failure to maintain the
necessary permits, licenses or approvals, or to comply with the required standards, could disrupt our operations and/or
adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, we are subject to various federal and state laws
intended to prevent healthcare fraud and abuse. The requirements of these fraud and abuse laws are complicated and subject to
interpretation and may be applied by a regulator, prosecutor or judge in a manner that could have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Additionally, our business relies on the secure transmission and storage of sensitive information relating to our
customers, company and workforce, and, in certain instances, patient-identifiable health information. We are subject to state,
federal and foreign laws that regulate the confidentiality of such information, how that information may be used, and the
circumstances under which such information may be released. Regulations currently in place, including regulations governing
electronic health data transmissions, continue to evolve and are often unclear and difficult to apply. Our failure to maintain the
confidentiality of information in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements could expose us to claims, damages, fines
and penalties and/or costs for remediation and, as a result, have a material adverse effect on our business and financial
condition.
Recalls and Product Liability Claims
Certain of the products that we sell and distribute are sourced and sold under one or more private labels or are
assembled by us into custom trays and minor procedure kits. If these products do not function as designed, are inappropriately
designed or are not properly produced, we may have to withdraw such products from the market and/or be subject to product
liability claims. Although we maintain insurance against product liability and defense costs in amounts believed to be
reasonable, there is no assurance that we can successfully defend any such claims or that the insurance we carry will be
sufficient. A successful claim against us in excess of insurance coverage could have a material adverse impact on our business
and results of operations.
9
General Economic Climate
Poor or deteriorating economic conditions in the United States and the other countries in which we conduct business
could adversely affect the demand for healthcare services and consequently, the demand for our products and services. Poor
economic conditions also could lead our suppliers to offer less favorable terms of purchase to distributors, which would
negatively affect our profitability. These and other possible consequences of financial and economic decline could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Bankruptcy, Insolvency or other Credit Failure of Customers
We provide credit in the normal course of business to customers. We perform initial and ongoing credit evaluations of
customers and maintain reserves for credit losses. The bankruptcy, insolvency or other credit failure of one or more customers
with substantial balances due to us could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Reliance on Information Systems and Technological Advancement
We rely on information systems to receive, process, analyze and manage data in distributing thousands of inventory
items to customers from numerous distribution and logistics centers. These systems are also relied upon for billings to and
collections from customers, as well as the purchase of and payment for inventory and related transactions from our suppliers. In
addition, the success of our long-term growth strategy is dependent upon the ability to continually monitor and upgrade our
information systems to provide better service to customers. Our business and results of operations may be materially adversely
affected if systems are interrupted or damaged by unforeseen events (including cyber attacks) or fail to operate for an extended
period of time, or if we fail to appropriately enhance our systems to support growth and strategic initiatives.
Changes in Tax Laws
We operate throughout the United States and Europe as well as in China. As a result, we are subjected to the tax laws
and regulations of the United States federal, state and local governments and of various foreign jurisdictions. From time to
time, legislative and regulatory initiatives are proposed, including but not limited to proposals to repeal LIFO (last-in, first-out)
treatment of domestic inventory or changes in tax accounting methods for inventory or other tax items, that could adversely
affect our tax positions, tax rate or cash payments for taxes.
Disruption of our Distribution Network
Damage or disruption to our distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire, terrorism, pandemic, strikes,
the financial and/or operational instability of key suppliers, geo-political events or other reasons could impair our ability to
distribute our products and conduct our business. To the extent that we are unable, or it is not financially feasible, to mitigate
the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to manage effectively such events if they occur, there could be a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 2. Properties
Our Domestic segment had 42 distribution centers as well as office and warehouse space across the United States as
of December 31, 2015. We lease all of the centers from unaffiliated third parties with the exception of one location which we
own. We also lease offices in China and Malaysia as well as small offices for sales and consulting personnel across the United
States. In addition, we have a warehousing arrangement in Honolulu, Hawaii, with an unaffiliated third party, and lease space
on a temporary basis from time to time to meet our inventory storage needs. We also operate two kitting facilities in our
Domestic segment, one of which is owned and the other is subject to a capital lease. We own an office building in Brentwood,
New York which is held for sale as of December 31, 2015. We also own our corporate headquarters building, and adjacent
acreage, in Mechanicsville, Virginia, a suburb of Richmond, Virginia.
Our International segment properties span 11 European countries and include 22 logistics centers (19 leased and
three owned) and one kitting facility that is owned. We also operate seven transport depots, of which we lease six and own one.
We also lease office space in Bedford, UK.
10
We regularly assess our business needs and make changes to the capacity and location of distribution and logistics
centers. We believe that our facilities are adequate to carry on our business as currently conducted. A number of leases are
scheduled to terminate within the next several years. We believe that, if necessary, we could find facilities to replace these
leased premises without suffering a material adverse effect on our business.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal actions that are ordinary and incidental to our business, including contract disputes,
employment, workers’ compensation, product liability, regulatory and other matters. We establish reserves from time to time
based upon periodic assessment of the potential outcomes of pending matters. In addition, we believe that any potential liability
arising from employment, product liability, workers’ compensation and other personal injury litigation matters would be
adequately covered by our insurance coverage, subject to policy limits, applicable deductibles and insurer solvency. While the
outcome of legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe, based on current knowledge and the advice of counsel,
that the outcome of these currently pending matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on
our financial condition or results of operations.

Share Repurchase Program. In February 2014, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up
to $100 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three-year period,
expiring in February 2017. The program is intended to offset shares issued in conjunction with our stock incentive plan and
return capital to shareholders. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Purchases under the share
repurchase program are made either pursuant to 10b5-1 plans entered into by the company from time to time and/or during the
company’s scheduled quarterly trading windows for officers and directors. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we
repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately 0.6 million shares at an average price per share of $34.04.

Report on Form 10-K.
Overview
Owens & Minor, Inc., along with its subsidiaries, (we, us, or our) is a leading global healthcare services company.
We report our business under two segments: Domestic and International. The Domestic segment includes all functions
relating to our role as a medical supply logistics company providing distribution, kitting and logistics services to healthcare
providers and manufacturers in the United States. The International segment consists of our European third-party logistics and
kitting businesses. Segment financial information is provided in Note 20 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
included in this annual report.

Adjusted EPS increased to $2.00 in 2015 from $1.76 in 2014 primarily due to an increase in Adjusted Operating
Earnings of $24.7 million, reflecting year over year improvements in both segments. Domestic segment operating earnings
were $223.4 million for 2015, an increase of $14.1 million when compared to the prior year. This increase resulted primarily
from revenue growth, benefits from manufacturer product price changes, contributions from Medical Action, expense control
initiatives and lower fuel costs. International segment results improved $10.6 million in the current year to operating earnings
of $3.9 million compared to a loss of $6.7 million in 2014. Improvement in International results is attributed to measures
taken throughout the year to streamline and reposition the business, improve operational efficiency and reduce expenses.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted operating earnings, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are an alternative view of performance used by
management, and we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance
measures. In general, the measures exclude items and charges that (i) management does not believe reflect our core business
and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over
multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to
evaluate our performance, evaluate the balance sheet, engage in financial and operational planning and determine incentive
compensation.
Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing
the effects of items and events on our financial and operating results and in comparing our performance to that of our
competitors. However, the non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may
not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by us should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures
calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to
those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.
The following items have been excluded in our non-GAAP financial measures:
(1) Acquisition-related charges, pre-tax, were $9.8 million in 2015, $16.1 million in 2014 and $3.5 million in 2013.
Current year charges consist primarily of costs to continue the integration of Medical Action and ArcRoyal, which were
acquired in the fourth quarter of 2014, including certain severance and contractual payments to the former owner and costs to
transition information technology and other administrative functions. Prior year charges consisted primarily of transaction
costs incurred to perform due diligence and analysis related to these acquisitions, as well as costs to resolve certain
contingencies with the former owner of Movianto. Charges in 2013 included costs to transition the information technology
and other operations and administrative functions of Movianto from the former owner.
Exit and realignment charges (income), pre-tax, were $18.6 million in 2015, $26.7 million in 2014 and $8.9 million
in 2013. These charges were associated with optimizing our operations and include the closure and consolidation of certain
distribution and logistics centers, administrative offices and warehouses in the United States and Europe. These charges also
include other costs associated with our strategic organizational realignment which include management changes, certain
professional fees, and costs to streamline administrative functions and processes. Further information regarding these items is
included in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We expect charges of approximately $20.0 million in 2016
for activities to be taken in the Domestic and International segments.
(2) The fourth quarter of 2014 included a gain of $6.7 million (pretax) recorded in other operating income, net from
a fair value adjustment to contingent consideration related to the 2012 Movianto acquisition purchase price, offset by the
incremental charge to cost of goods sold of $3.0 million (pretax) from purchase accounting impacts related to the sale of
acquired inventory that was written up to fair value in connection with the 2014 acquisitions.
(3) The fourth quarter of 2015 included an insurance recovery of $1.5 million related to a contract settlement in the
United Kingdom for which $3.9 million was expensed in 2014. Both the 2015 recovery and the 2014 settlement expense were
recorded in other operating income, net.
(4) In 2014, we repaid our 2016 Notes and recorded a net loss on the early retirement of $14.9 million (pretax),
which includes the redemption premium offset by the recognition of a gain on previously settled interest rate swaps.
These charges have been tax effected in the preceding table by determining the income tax rate depending on the
amount of charges incurred in different tax jurisdictions and the deductibility of those charges for income tax purposes. More
information about these charges is provided in Notes 3, 9 and 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
this annual report.

Consolidated net revenue improved in the year ended December 31, 2015 as a result of growth in our Domestic
segment. The continued trend of growth in our existing large healthcare provider customer accounts and new business
exceeded declines from smaller customers and lost business when compared to prior year. Domestic segment growth rates are
impacted by ongoing market trends including healthcare utilization rates. Domestic revenues in 2015 also benefitted from a
full year of activity from the 2014 acquisition of Medical Action which accounted for 1.5% of the year over year growth. The
decrease in the International segment was largely driven by unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts of $52.5 million
in 2015. On a constant currency basis, excluding the full year impact of the 2014 acquisition of ArcRoyal, and the late 2014
transition of a customer from a buy/sell to a fee-for-service arrangement, International segment revenues declined
approximately 3.5% for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to prior year. This decline was largely a result of the
previously announced exit from a U.K. customer contract, as well as other lost business. Fee-for-service business generally
represents approximately two-thirds of net revenue in the International segment.

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of the product (net of supplier incentives and cash discounts) and all costs
incurred for shipments of products from manufacturers to our distribution centers for all customer arrangements where we are
the primary obligor, bear risk of general and physical inventory loss and carry all credit risk associated with sales. These are
sometimes referred to as distribution or buy/sell contracts. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014, cost of goods sold also
includes direct and certain indirect labor, material and overhead costs associated with our kitting operations. There is no cost
of goods sold associated with our fee-for-service business. As a result of the increase in sales activity through our distribution
and kitting businesses, cost of goods sold increased from the prior year by $288.2 million.

The improvement in gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the prior year was largely
attributable to revenue growth in the Domestic segment as described above, as well as higher benefits from certain
manufacturer product price changes compared to prior year. International gross margin was unfavorably impacted by $40.6
million from foreign currency translation. Excluding this impact, the International segment gross margin improved 3.1%
compared to prior year, largely from the 2014 acquisition of ArcRoyal.
We value Domestic segment inventory under the LIFO method. Had inventory been valued under the first-in, first-
out (FIFO) method, gross margin as a percentage of net revenue would have been the same in 2015 and higher by 8 basis
points in 2014.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses include labor and warehousing costs associated with our
distribution and logistics services and all costs associated with our fee-for-service arrangements. Shipping and handling costs
are included in SG&A expenses and include costs to store, to move, and to prepare products for shipment, as well as costs to
deliver products to customers. The costs to convert new customers to our information systems are generally incurred prior to
the recognition of revenues from the new customers.
The change in SG&A expenses compared to the prior year was largely attributable to increased expenses associated
with incremental sales activity in the Domestic segment, higher accrued incentive compensation and full year impacts from
the late 2014 acquisitions in both segments. These impacts were largely offset by benefits from cost control initiatives, lower
fuel costs compared to prior year and favorable foreign currency translation impacts of $37.6 million, all of which contributed
to a 27 basis point reduction in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net revenue compared to 2014. The Domestic segment also
incurred $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 in costs associated with the recruitment and transition of our new
chief executive officer.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 2015 as a result of incurring a full year of amortization on
intangible assets associated with the 2014 acquisitions. In connection with our kitting operations, approximately $1.3 million
in depreciation for 2015 and $0.3 million for 2014 was also included in cost of goods sold. Additional amortization of $4.5
million for 2015 and $6.0 million for 2014 related to the accelerated amortization of an information system which has been
replaced in the International segment is included in acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges.
The decrease in other operating income, net for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily
related to 1) the prior year benefit of $5.3 million from the settlement of a direct purchaser anti-trust class action lawsuit, as
well as a gain on the sale of an investment, 2) the prior year gain of $6.7 million from a fair value adjustment to contingent
consideration related to the Movianto acquisition purchase price, offset by 3) a prior year loss of $3.9 million related to the
settlement of a contract claim in the United Kingdom, of which $1.5 million was recovered through insurance in 2015 and 4)
an increase in 2015 of expenses associated with on-going legal matters.
A discussion of the acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges is included above in the Overview section.

Consolidated net revenue improved in our two segments for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 2013.
Excluding the impact of the fourth quarter 2014 acquisitions, net revenue increased by 2.6% and 25.5% in our Domestic and
International segments, respectively. In the Domestic segment, the continued trend of growth in our existing large healthcare
provider customer accounts and new business exceeded declines from smaller customers when compared to 2013. Domestic
segment growth rates are impacted by ongoing market trends including healthcare utilization rates. The increases in the
International segment were a result of new buy/sell contracts and growth in fee-for-service business as well as positive impacts
from foreign exchange. Fee-for-service business generally represents approximately two-thirds of net revenue in the
International segment.

and fourth quarter 2014 sales activity associated with the acquisitions (which includes the incremental charge to cost of goods
sold of $3.0 million from purchase accounting impacts related to the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair
value), cost of goods sold increased $315.8 million from 2013. See the gross margin discussion below for additional factors
impacting cost of goods sold.

The growth in fee-for-service activity drove the overall improvement in gross margin as the International segment
showed a $44.2 million increase over 2013. Domestic segment gross margin for the year benefitted from increased sales
volume and the fourth quarter contribution of Medical Action which offset the decline in margins on new and renewed
customer contracts in 2014 when compared to 2013.
We value Domestic segment inventory under the LIFO method. Had inventory been valued under the first-in, first-

by 3 basis points in 2013.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses include labor and warehousing costs associated with our
distribution and logistics services and all costs associated with our fee-for-service arrangements. Shipping and handling costs
are included in SG&A expenses and include costs to store, move, and prepare products for shipment, as well as costs to deliver
products to customers. The costs to convert new customers to our service platform are generally incurred prior to the
recognition of revenues from the new customers.
International segment SG&A expenses increased over 2013 by $44.4 million due mainly to increased salaries and
delivery costs associated with higher fee-for-service activity as well as increased costs associated with integrating a significant
new customer in the United Kingdom earlier in the year. The Domestic segment also experienced an increase during 2014 as a
result of higher accrued incentive compensation, warehouse expense from greater sales activity and higher legal fees
compared to 2013. Acquisitions accounted for $11.3 million of the increase in SG&A from 2013.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily in the International segment due to increases in
computer software amortization for assets placed in service and amortization from intangibles associated with purchase price
accounting. An additional $1.6 million in expense is associated with the 2014 acquisitions. In connection with Medical Action
and ArcRoyal, approximately $0.3 million in depreciation expense is also included in cost of goods sold.
The increase in other operating income, net for the year ended December 31, 2014 is attributed primarily to (1) the
recovery of $5.3 million from the settlement of a direct purchaser anti-trust class action lawsuit relating to the recovery of
costs from purchases of medical devices over a multi-year period, as well as a gain on the sale of an investment, (2) a gain of

The increase in the effective tax rate, including income taxes on acquisition-related and exit and realignment
charges as well as the loss on early retirement of debt, increased from the prior year periods largely due to the impact of
foreign taxes and the effect of certain acquisition-related costs which are not deductible for tax purposes.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial condition. We monitor operating working capital through days sales outstanding (DSO) and
merchandise inventory turnover. We estimate a hypothetical increase (decrease) in DSO of one day would result in a decrease
(increase) in our cash balances, an increase (decrease) in borrowings against our revolving credit facility, or a combination
thereof of approximately $27 million.
The majority of our cash and cash equivalents are held in cash depository accounts with major banks in the United
States and Europe or invested in high-quality, short-term liquid investments. Changes in our working capital can vary in the
normal course of business based upon the timing of inventory purchases, collection of accounts receivable, and payment to
suppliers.

Cash provided by operating activities in 2015 reflected higher net income and favorable changes in working capital
driven primarily by the timing of vendor payments. Depreciation and amortization in the statements of cash flow includes
$4.5 million in 2015 and $6.0 million in 2014 in accelerated amortization which is included in acquisition-related and exit and
realignment charges in the statements of income related to the change in useful life (from 10 years to 1 year) for an
information system which has been replaced in the International segment. Cash used for operating activities in 2014
compared to 2013 reflected unfavorable changes in working capital driven primarily by the timing of vendor payments and
increased net working capital needs resulting from strong sales growth.
Cash used for investing activities in 2015 reflected capital expenditures of $36.6 million for our strategic and
operational efficiency initiatives, particularly initiatives relating to information technology enhancements and optimizing our
distribution network. Cash used for investing activities in 2014 included cash paid for the acquisitions of Medical Action and
ArcRoyal of approximately $261.6 million plus assumed third-party debt (capital lease obligations) of $13.4 million and
capital expenditures of $70.8 million (compared to $60.1 million in 2013) primarily related to distribution center and logistics
facility moves and modifications and information technology initiatives.
Cash used in financing activities in 2015 includes the repayment of $33.7 million in borrowings on our Amended
Credit Agreement. In 2014, cash provided by financing activities reflected proceeds from borrowings of $581.4 million and
the repayment of long-term debt of $217.4 million. We paid dividends of $63.7 million, $63.1 million and $60.7 million and
repurchased common stock under a share repurchase program for $20.0 million, $9.9 million and $18.9 million in the years
ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.
20
Capital resources. Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents and a revolving credit facility. On
September 17, 2014, we amended our existing Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
Bank of America, N.A. and a syndicate of financial institutions (the Amended Credit Agreement) increasing our borrowing
capacity from $350 million to $450 million and extending the term through 2019. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, we
have the ability to request two one -year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate commitments by up to $200
million. The interest rate on the Amended Credit Agreement, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on the better of our debt
ratings or leverage ratio (Credit Spread) as defined by the Amended Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of
between 12.5 and 25.0 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the Amended Credit Agreement limit the
amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage, including on a
pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. We may utilize the revolving credit facility for long-term strategic growth,
capital expenditures, working capital and general corporate purposes. If we were unable to access the revolving credit facility,
it could impact our ability to fund these needs. Based on our leverage ratio at December 31, 2015, the interest rate under the
credit facility is LIBOR plus 1.375%.
At December 31, 2015, we had no borrowings and letters of credit of approximately $5.0 million outstanding under
the Amended Credit Agreement, leaving $445 million available for borrowing. At December 31, 2014, we had $33.7 million
in borrowings outstanding which was repaid in the first quarter of 2015. We also have a $1.2 million and a $1.5 million letter
of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which supports our facilities leased in Europe.
On September 16, 2014, we issued $275 million of 3.875% senior notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and $275
million of 4.375% senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The 2021 Notes were sold at 99.5% of the principal amount with
an effective yield of 3.951%. The 2024 Notes were sold at 99.6% of the principal amount with an effective yield of 4.422%.
Interest on the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears, commencing on March 15, 2015 and December
15, 2014, respectively. We have the option to redeem the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes in part or in whole prior to maturity at a
redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount or the present value of the remaining scheduled
payments discounted at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points. We have $4.1 million of deferred costs associated with the
issuance of the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes which were unamortized as of December 31, 2015.
We used a portion of the proceeds from the 2021 Notes and the 2024 Notes to complete the Medical Action and
ArcRoyal acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2014 for a combined purchase price of $261.6 million, net of cash acquired,
and including debt assumed of $13.4 million (capitalized lease obligations). We also used a portion of the proceeds in 2014 to
fund the early retirement of all of our 2016 Notes, which included the payment of a $17.4 million redemption premium. We
recorded a net loss on the early retirement of our 2016 Notes of $14.9 million, which includes the redemption premium offset
by the recognition of a gain on previously settled interest rate swaps.
We paid quarterly cash dividends on our outstanding common stock at the rate of $0.2525 per share during 2015,
$0.25 per share during 2014, and $0.24 per share during 2013. Our annual dividend payout ratio for the three years ended
December 31, 2015, based on Adjusted EPS, was in the range of 50% to 57%. In February 2016, the Board of Directors
approved the first quarter dividend of $0.255 per common share, an increase of 1.0% compared to 2015. We anticipate
continuing to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. However, the payment of future dividends remains within the
discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements
and other factors.
In February 2014, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100 million of our
outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three-year period, expiring in February
2017. The program is intended to offset shares issued in conjunction with our stock incentive plan and return capital to
shareholders and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During 2015, we repurchased approximately 0.6 million
shares at $20.0 million under this program. At December 31, 2015, the remaining amount authorized for repurchase under this
program was $70.0 million.
We believe available financing sources, including cash generated by operating activities and borrowings under the
Amended Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, long-term strategic
growth, payments under long-term debt and lease arrangements, payments of quarterly cash dividends, share repurchases and
other cash requirements. While we believe that we will have the ability to meet our financing needs in the foreseeable future,
changes in economic conditions may impact (i) the ability of financial institutions to meet their contractual commitments to
us, (ii) the ability of our customers and suppliers to meet their obligations to us or (iii) our cost of borrowing.
We earn a portion of our operating earnings in foreign jurisdictions outside the U.S., which we consider to be
indefinitely reinvested. Accordingly, no U.S. federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes have been provided on
21
these earnings. Our cash, cash-equivalents, short-term investments, and marketable securities held by our foreign subsidiaries
totaled $46.0 million and $31.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. We do not intend, nor do we foresee a need, to
repatriate these funds or other assets held outside the U.S. In the future, should we require more capital to fund discretionary
activities in the U.S. than is generated by our domestic operations and is available through our borrowings, we could elect to
repatriate cash or other assets from foreign jurisdictions that have previously been considered to be indefinitely reinvested.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have guarantees or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including variable interest entities,
which we believe could have a material impact on financial condition or liquidity.

(3) We cannot reasonably estimate the timing of cash settlement for the liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits.
(4) Other long-term liabilities include estimated minimum required payments for our unfunded retirement plan for certain
officers. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain long-term liabilities, including deferred tax
liabilities and post-retirement benefit obligations, are excluded as we cannot reasonably estimate the timing of payments for
these items.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and
estimates used to prepare the financial statements.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those policies that relate to estimates that require us to make
assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made and could have a material impact on our
results due to changes in the estimate or the use of different assumptions that could reasonably have been used. Our estimates
are generally based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are judged to be reasonable in light of the
relevant facts and circumstances. Because of the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ. We believe
our critical accounting policies and estimates include allowances for losses on accounts and notes receivable, inventory
valuation, accounting for goodwill and long-lived assets, self-insurance liabilities, supplier incentives, and business
combinations.
22
Allowances for losses on accounts and notes receivable. We maintain valuation allowances based upon the
expected collectability of accounts and notes receivable. The allowances include specific amounts for accounts that are likely
to be uncollectible, such as customer bankruptcies and disputed amounts, and general allowances for accounts that may
become uncollectible. These allowances are estimated based on a number of factors, including industry trends, current
economic conditions, creditworthiness of customers, age of the receivables, changes in customer payment patterns, and
historical experience. At December 31, 2015, accounts and notes receivable were $587.9 million, net of allowances of $13.2
million. An unexpected bankruptcy or other adverse change in the financial condition of a customer could result in increases in
these allowances, which could have a material effect on the results of operations.
Inventory valuation. Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using
the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for Domestic segment inventories and the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for
International segment inventories. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made only at the end of the year
based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. LIFO calculations are required for interim reporting purposes and are
based on estimates of the expected mix of products in year-end inventory. In addition, inventory valuation includes estimates
of allowances for obsolescence and variances between actual inventory on-hand and perpetual inventory records that can arise
throughout the year. These estimates are based on factors such as the age of inventory and historical trends. At December 31,
2015, the carrying value of inventory was $940.8 million, which is $116.4 million lower than the value of inventory had it all
been accounted for on a FIFO basis.
Goodwill and long-lived assets. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of
identifiable net assets acquired. Long-lived assets, which are a component of identifiable net assets, include intangible assets
with finite useful lives, property and equipment, and computer software costs. Intangible assets with finite useful lives consist
primarily of customer relationships and non-compete agreements acquired through business combinations. Certain
assumptions and estimates are employed in determining the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired.
We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events occur or changes in circumstance indicate that
the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. In performing the impairment test, we perform qualitative
assessments based on macroeconomic conditions, structural changes in the industry, estimated financial performance, and
other relevant information. If necessary, we perform a quantitative analysis to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit
using valuation techniques, including comparable multiples of the reporting unit's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA) and discounted cash flows. The EBITDA multiples are based on an analysis of current enterprise
valuations and recent acquisition prices of similar companies, if available. Goodwill totaled $419.6 million at December 31,
2015.
Long-lived assets, which exclude goodwill, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. We assess long-lived assets for
potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of an asset, or group of related assets, to its estimated undiscounted
future cash flows. At December 31, 2015, long-lived assets included property and equipment of $208.9 million, net of
accumulated depreciation; intangible assets of $95.3 million, net of accumulated amortization; and computer software costs of
$68.4 million, net of accumulated amortization.
We did not record any material impairment losses related to goodwill or long-lived assets in 2015. However, the
impairment review of goodwill and long-lived assets requires the extensive use of accounting judgment, estimates and
assumptions. The application of alternative assumptions could produce materially different results.
Self-insurance liabilities. We are self-insured for most employee healthcare, workers’ compensation and
automobile liability costs; however, we maintain insurance for individual losses exceeding certain limits. Liabilities are
estimated for healthcare costs using current and historical claims data. Liabilities for workers’ compensation and automobile
liability claims are estimated using historical claims data and loss development factors. If the underlying facts and
circumstances of existing claims change or historical trends are not indicative of future trends, then we may be required to
record additional expense that could have a material effect on the results of operations. Self-insurance liabilities recorded in
our consolidated balance sheets for employee healthcare, workers’ compensation and automobile liability costs totaled $14.5
million at December 31, 2015 and $13.0 million at December 31, 2014.
Supplier incentives. We have contractual arrangements with certain suppliers that provide incentives, including
operational efficiency and performance-based incentives, on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. These incentives are
recognized as a reduction in cost of goods sold as targets become probable of achievement. Supplier incentives receivable are
recorded for interim and annual reporting purposes and are based on our estimate of the amounts which are expected to be
realized. If we do not achieve required targets under certain programs as estimated, it could have a material adverse effect on
our results of operations.
23
Business Combinations. We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired,
liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase
consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair
values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management makes significant estimates and assumptions, especially with
respect to intangible assets.
Critical estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from
customer relationships and discount rates. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable,
but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates related to our revolving credit facility. We had no
outstanding borrowings and $5.0 million in letters of credit under the facility at December 31, 2015. A hypothetical increase in
interest rates of 100 basis points would result in a potential reduction in future pre-tax earnings of approximately $0.1 million
per year for every $10 million of outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Due to the nature and pricing of our Domestic segment distribution services, we are exposed to potential volatility in
fuel prices. Our strategies for helping to mitigate our exposure to changing domestic fuel prices have included entering into
leases for trucks with improved fuel efficiency. We benchmark our domestic diesel fuel purchase prices against the U.S. Weekly
Retail On-Highway Diesel Prices (benchmark) as quoted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. The benchmark
averaged $2.71 per gallon in 2015, decreased 29% from $3.82 per gallon in 2014. Based on our fuel consumption in 2015, we
estimate that every 10 cents per gallon increase in the benchmark would reduce our Domestic segment operating earnings by
approximately $0.3 million.
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to foreign currency translation and transaction risks. Our business
transactions outside of the United States are primarily denominated in the Euro and British Pound. We may use foreign
currency forwards, swaps and options, where possible, to manage our risk related to certain foreign currency fluctuations.
However, we believe that our foreign currency transaction risks are low since our revenues and expenses are typically
denominated in the same currency.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
See Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation,
the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of December 31, 2015.
There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter (our fourth
quarter in the case of an annual report) ended December 31, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Owens & Minor, Inc.:
We have audited Owens & Minor, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO). Owens & Minor, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the
accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing in Part II of the Company’s
December 31, 2015 annual report on Form 10-K. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Owens & Minor, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated balance sheets of Owens & Minor, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated
statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 2015, and our report dated February 25, 2016, expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.

and Europe, we are equipped to serve a customer base ranging from hospitals, integrated healthcare systems, group purchasing
organizations, and the U.S. federal government, to manufacturers of life-science and medical devices and supplies, including
pharmaceuticals in Europe.
Our Domestic segment includes all functions relating to our role as a medical supply logistics company providing
distribution, kitting and logistics services to healthcare providers and manufacturers in the United States. The International
segment consists of our European third-party logistics and kitting businesses.
Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Owens & Minor, Inc. and the
subsidiaries it controls, in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to
make assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Estimates are used for, but are not limited
to, the allowances for losses on accounts and notes receivable, inventory valuation allowances, supplier incentives, depreciation
and amortization, goodwill valuation, valuation of intangible assets and other long-lived assets, valuation of property held for
sale, self-insurance liabilities, tax liabilities, defined benefit obligations, share-based compensation and other contingencies.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and marketable securities with an original
maturity or maturity at acquisition of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost. Nearly all of our cash
and cash equivalents are held in cash depository accounts in major banks in the United States and Europe.
Book overdrafts represent the amount of outstanding checks issued in excess of related bank balances and are
included in accounts payable in our consolidated balance sheets, as they are similar to trade payables and are not subject to
finance charges or interest. Changes in book overdrafts are classified as operating activities in our consolidated statements of
cash flows.
Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net. Accounts receivable from customers are recorded at the invoiced amount. We
assess finance charges on overdue accounts receivable that are recognized as other operating income based on their estimated
ultimate collectability. We have arrangements with certain customers under which they make deposits on account. Customer
deposits in excess of outstanding receivable balances are classified as other current liabilities.
We maintain valuation allowances based upon the expected collectability of accounts and notes receivable. Our
allowances include specific amounts for accounts that are likely to be uncollectible, such as customer bankruptcies and
disputed amounts and general allowances for accounts that may become uncollectible. Allowances are estimated based on a
number of factors, including industry trends, current economic conditions, creditworthiness of customers, age of the
receivables, changes in customer payment patterns, and historical experience. Account balances are charged off against the
allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
Financing Receivables and Payables. We have an order-to-cash program in our International segment under which
we invoice manufacturers’ customers and remit collected amounts to the manufacturers. We retain credit risk for certain
uncollected receivables under this program where contractually obligated. We continually monitor the expected collectability in
this program and maintain valuation allowances when it is likely that an amount may be or may become uncollectible.
Allowances are estimated based on a number of factors including creditworthiness of customers, age of the receivables and
historical experience. We write off uncollected receivables under this program when collection is no longer being pursued. At
December 31, 2015 and 2014, the allowance for uncollectible accounts as part of this program was $0.1 million and $0.4
34
million. Fees charged for this program are included in net revenue. Product pricing and related product risks are retained by the
manufacturer. Balances receivable and related amounts payable under this program are classified in other current assets and
other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
Merchandise Inventories. Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined
by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for Domestic segment inventories. Cost of International segment inventories is
determined using the first-in, first out (FIFO) method.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or, if acquired
under capital leases, at the lower of the present value of minimum lease payments or fair market value at the inception of the
lease less accumulated amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for financial reporting purposes is computed on a
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or, for capital leases and leasehold improvements, over the
term of the lease, if shorter. During the year we changed the useful lives of certain warehouse assets from eight years to 15 to
better align with our current business practices. The cost basis of these assets were $12.9 million and the change in useful lives
reduced total depreciation expense by $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. In general, the estimated useful lives
for computing depreciation and amortization are four to 15 years for warehouse equipment, five to 40 years for buildings and
building improvements, and three to eight years for computers, furniture and fixtures, and office and other equipment. Straight-
line and accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax purposes. Normal maintenance and repairs are expensed
as incurred, and renovations and betterments are capitalized.
Leases. We have entered into non-cancelable agreements to lease most of our office and warehouse facilities with
remaining terms generally ranging from one to 30 years. We also lease most of our transportation and material handling
equipment for terms generally ranging from three to ten years. Certain information technology assets embedded in an
outsourcing agreement are accounted for as capital leases. Leases are classified as operating leases or capital leases at their
inception. Rent expense for leases with rent holidays or pre-determined rent increases are recognized on a straight-line basis
over the lease term. Incentives and allowances for leasehold improvements are deferred and recognized as a reduction of rent
expense over the lease term.
Goodwill. We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually, as of October 1, and whenever events occur or changes in
circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. We review goodwill first by performing a
qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value.
If not, we then perform a quantitative assessment by first comparing the carrying amount to the fair value of the reporting unit.
If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than its carrying value, a second step is performed to measure the
goodwill impairment loss as the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the estimated fair value of its
goodwill. We estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using valuation techniques which can include comparable multiples of
the unit’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and present value of expected cash flows.
The EBITDA multiples are based on an analysis of current enterprise values and recent acquisition prices of similar companies,
if available.
Intangible Assets. Intangible assets acquired through purchases or business combinations are stated at fair value at
the acquisition date and net of accumulated amortization in the consolidated balance sheets. Intangible assets, consisting
primarily of customer relationships, customer contracts, non-competition agreements, trademarks, and tradenames are
amortized over their estimated useful lives. In determining the useful life of an intangible asset, we consider our historical
experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements. Customer relationships are generally amortized over 10 to 15 years
and other intangible assets are amortized generally for periods between one and 15 years, based on their pattern of economic
benefit or on a straight-line basis.
Computer Software. We develop and purchase software for internal use. Software development costs incurred
during the application development stage are capitalized. Once the software has been installed and tested, and is ready for use,
additional costs incurred in connection with the software are expensed as incurred. Capitalized computer software costs are
amortized over the estimated useful life of the software, usually between three and ten years. Computer software costs are
included in other assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized software at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was
$68.4 million and $75.2 million. Depreciation and amortization expense includes $15.4 million, $16.4 million and $14.2
million of software amortization for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. Additional amortization of $4.5
million in 2015 and $6.0 million in 2014 related to the accelerated amortization of an information system which was replaced
in the International segment is included in acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges in the consolidated statements
of income.
35
Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, finite-lived intangible assets, and
unamortized software costs, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. We assess long-lived assets for potential impairment by
comparing the carrying value of an asset, or group of related assets, to their estimated undiscounted future cash flows.
Self-Insurance Liabilities. We are self-insured for most employee healthcare, workers’ compensation and
automobile liability costs; however, we maintain insurance for individual losses exceeding certain limits. Liabilities are
estimated for healthcare costs using current and historical claims data. Liabilities for workers’ compensation and automobile
liability claims are estimated using historical claims data and loss development factors. If the underlying facts and
circumstances of existing claims change or historical trends are not indicative of future trends, then we may be required to
record additional expense or reductions to expense. Self-insurance liabilities are included in other accrued liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has
occurred or services have been rendered, the price or fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Under most of our distribution contracts, we record revenue at the time shipment is completed as title passes to the customer
when the product is received by the customer.
Revenue for activity-based fees and other services is recognized as work is performed and as amounts are earned.
Depending on the specific contractual provisions and nature of the deliverable, revenue from services may be recognized on a
straight-line basis over the term of the service, on a proportional performance model, based on level of effort, or when final
deliverables have been provided. Additionally, we generate fees from arrangements that include performance targets related to
cost-saving initiatives for customers that result from our supply-chain management services. Achievement against performance
targets, measured in accordance with contractual terms, may result in additional fees paid to us or, if performance targets are
not achieved, we may be obligated to refund or reduce a portion of our fees or to provide credits toward future purchases by the
customer. For these arrangements, all contingent revenue is deferred and recognized as the performance target is achieved and
the applicable contingency is released. When we determine that a loss is probable under a contract, the estimated loss is
accrued.
We allocate revenue for arrangements with multiple deliverables meeting the criteria for a separate unit of
accounting using the relative selling price method and recognize revenue for each deliverable in accordance with applicable
revenue recognition criteria.
In most cases, we record revenue gross, as we are the primary obligor in our sales arrangements, bear the risk of
general and physical inventory loss and carry all credit risk associated with sales. When we act as an agent in a sales
arrangement and do not bear a significant portion of these risks, primarily for our third-party logistics business, we record
revenue net of product cost. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from
revenues.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold includes the cost of the product (net of supplier incentives and cash
discounts) and all costs incurred for shipments of products from manufacturers to our distribution centers for all customer
arrangements where we are the primary obligor, bear the risk of general and physical inventory loss and carry all credit risk
associated with sales. We have contractual arrangements with certain suppliers that provide incentives, including cash
discounts for prompt payment, operational efficiency and performance-based incentives. These incentives are recognized as a
reduction in cost of goods sold as targets become probable of achievement.
In situations where we act as an agent in a sales arrangement and do not bear a significant portion of these risks,
primarily for our third-party logistics business, there is no cost of goods sold and all costs to provide the service to the customer
are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.
As a result of different practices of categorizing costs and different business models throughout our industry, our
gross margins may not necessarily be comparable to other distribution companies.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses. SG&A expenses include shipping and handling costs, labor
and other costs for selling and administrative functions associated with our distribution and logistics services and all costs
associated with our fee-for-service arrangements.
Shipping and Handling. Shipping and handling costs are included in SG&A expenses on the consolidated statements
of income and include costs to store, to move, and to prepare products for shipment, as well as costs to deliver products to
customers. Shipping and handling costs totaled $548.6 million, $576.8 million and $528.2 million for the years ended
36
December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Third-party shipping and handling costs billed to customers, which are
included in net revenue, are immaterial for all periods presented.
Share-Based Compensation. We account for share-based payments to employees at fair value and recognize the
related expense in selling, general and administrative expenses over the service period for awards expected to vest.
Derivative Financial Instruments. We are directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions,
which may adversely impact our financial performance and are referred to as “market risks.” When deemed appropriate, we use
derivatives as a risk management tool to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks, primarily foreign currency
exchange risk. We use forward contracts, which are agreements to buy or sell a quantity of a commodity at a predetermined
future date, and at a predetermined rate or price. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. All
derivatives are carried at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets, which is determined by using observable market inputs
(Level 2). The cash flow impact of the our derivative instruments is primarily included in our consolidated statements of cash
flows in net cash provided by operating activities.
Income Taxes. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are provided if it is more likely than
not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. When we have claimed tax benefits that may be challenged by a tax authority,
an estimate of the effect of these uncertain tax positions is recorded. It is our policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and
the related interest and penalties based upon an assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon
examination by tax authorities. To the extent that the tax outcome of these uncertain tax positions changes, based on our
assessment, such changes in estimate may impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determination is made.
We earn a portion of our operating earnings in foreign jurisdictions outside the United States, which we consider to
be indefinitely reinvested. Accordingly, no United States federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes have been
provided on these earnings. Our cash, cash-equivalents, short-term investments, and marketable securities held by our foreign
subsidiaries totaled $46.0 million and $31.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. We do not intend, nor do we foresee a
need, to repatriate these funds or other assets held outside the U.S. In the future, should we require more capital to fund
activities in the U.S. than is generated by our domestic operations and is available through our borrowings, we could elect to
repatriate cash or other assets from foreign jurisdictions that have previously been considered to be indefinitely reinvested.
Upon distribution of these assets, we could be subject to additional U.S. federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes
payable to foreign jurisdictions, where applicable.
Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is determined based on assumptions that a market participant would use in
pricing an asset or liability. The assumptions used are in accordance with a three-tier hierarchy, defined by GAAP, that draws a
distinction between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets
(Level 1), (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2) and
(iii) unobservable inputs that require the use of present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value
(Level 3).
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable reported in the
consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Property held for sale is
reported at estimated fair value less selling costs with fair value determined based on recent sales prices for comparable
properties in similar locations (Level 2). The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or dealer
quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1) or, if quoted market prices or dealer
quotes are not available, on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms, credit ratings, and average
remaining maturities (Level 2). See Notes 7, 10 and 11 for the fair value of property held for sale, debt instruments and
derivatives.
Acquisition-Related and Exit and Realignment Charges. We present costs incurred in connection with acquisitions
in acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges in our consolidated statements of income. Acquisition-related charges
consist primarily of transaction costs incurred to perform due diligence and to analyze, negotiate and consummate an
acquisition, costs to perform post-closing activities to establish the organizational structure, and costs to transition the acquired
company’s information technology and other operations and administrative functions from the former owner.
37
Costs associated with exit and realignment activities are recorded at their fair value when incurred. Liabilities are
established at the cease-use date for remaining operating lease and other contractual obligations, net of estimated sub-lease
income. The net lease termination cost is discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of interest. We evaluate these
assumptions quarterly and adjust the liability accordingly. The current portion of accrued lease and other contractual
termination costs is included in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, and the non-current portion is
included in other liabilities. Severance benefits are recorded when payment is considered probable and reasonably estimable.
Income Per Share. Basic and diluted income per share are calculated pursuant to the two-class method, under
which unvested share-based payment awards containing nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities.
Foreign Currency Translation. Our foreign subsidiaries generally consider their local currency to be their
functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange
rates and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Cumulative currency translation
adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses on
intercompany foreign currency transactions that are long-term in nature and which we do not intend to settle in the foreseeable
future are also recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses from foreign
currency transactions are recorded in other operating income, net in the consolidated statements of income and were not
material to our consolidated results of operations in 2015, 2014, and 2013.
Business Combinations. We account for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting, which
requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Any
excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. During 2015, we adopted Accounting Standard Updates (ASU’s) issued by
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
In November 2015 the FASB released as part of its simplification initiative ASU 2015-17 which will require
entities, starting in 2017, to classify all deferred taxes as non-current. This is a change from the current GAAP which requires
deferred taxes to be classified as current or non-current based on the underlying book asset/liability. As allowed by the
standard, we have chosen to early adopt this guidance on a retrospective basis. As a result, all deferred income taxes in the
consolidated balance sheets are reflected as non-current assets or liabilities. Deferred tax liabilities of $38.0 million and
deferred tax assets of $0.8 million presented as current in the prior year have been reclassified to non-current to conform to this
new presentation.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the
Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments, which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination
to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. Under this ASU, acquirers must recognize measurement-period
adjustments in the period in which they determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts they would
have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. This guidance is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt this ASU
in the third quarter of 2015. We have not retrospectively accounted for the measurement-period adjustments as described in
Note 3.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt
Issuance Costs (ASU 2015-03), which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the
balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The standard
is effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 is not expected
to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued an ASU, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to
recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers.
The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective on January 1, 2018.
Early application as of January 1, 2017 is permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative
effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements and
related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our
ongoing financial reporting.

Note 2—Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Many of our hospital customers in the U.S. are represented by group purchasing organizations (GPOs) that contract
with us for services on behalf of the GPO members. GPOs representing a significant portion of our business are Novation, LLC
(Novation), MedAssets Inc. (MedAssets) and Premier, Inc. (Premier). Members of these GPOs have incentives to purchase
from their primary selected distributor; however, they operate independently and are free to negotiate directly with distributors
and manufacturers. For 2015, 2014 and 2013, net revenue from hospitals under contract with these GPOs represented the
following approximate percentages of our net revenue annually: Novation—32% to 33%; MedAssets—24% to 26%; and
Premier—21% to 24%.
Net revenue from sales of product supplied by subsidiaries of Covidien Ltd. represented approximately 13% and
Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Systems, Inc. represented between 9% to 10% of our net revenue annually for 2015, 2014 and
2013, respectively.
Note 3—Acquisitions
On October 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Medical Action Industries Inc., (Medical Action), a leading
producer of surgical kits and procedure trays, which will enable an expansion of our capabilities in the assembly of kits, packs
and trays for the healthcare market.
On November 1, 2014, we acquired ArcRoyal, a privately held surgical kitting company based in Ireland
(ArcRoyal). The transaction expanded our capabilities in the assembly of kits, packs and trays in the European healthcare
market.
The combined consideration for these two acquisitions was $261.6 million, net of cash acquired, and including debt
assumed of $13.4 million (capitalized lease obligations).
The purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon our
preliminary estimate of their fair values at the date of acquisition, with certain exceptions permitted under GAAP. The
combined purchase price exceeded the preliminary estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets by
$150.6 million, which was allocated to goodwill. The following table presents, in the aggregate, the estimated fair value of the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized as of the acquisition date.

We are amortizing the fair value of acquired intangible assets, primarily customer relationships, over their remaining
weighted average useful lives of 14 years.
Goodwill of $150.6 million consists largely of expected opportunities to expand our kitting capabilities. We
assigned goodwill of $20.9 million to our International segment and $129.7 million to our Domestic segment. None of the
goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions have not been presented because the effects on revenue and net
income were not material to our historic consolidated financial statements.
39
Acquisition-related expenses for the years ending December 31, 2015 and 2014 consisted of transaction costs incurred
to perform due diligence and to analyze, negotiate and consummate the Medical Action and ArcRoyal acquisitions, and costs to
integrate the acquired operations (including certain severance and contractual payments to former management). We also
incurred certain acquisition-related charges in 2014 and 2013 associated with costs in Movianto to resolve certain issues and
claims with the former owner. We recognized pre-tax acquisition-related expenses of $9.8 million, $16.1 million and $3.5
million for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 related to these activities.
Note 4—Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net
Allowances for losses on accounts and notes receivable of $13.2 million and $13.3 million have been applied as
reductions of accounts receivable at December 31, 2015 and 2014. Write-offs of accounts and notes receivable were $1.2
million, $3.1 million and $1.1 million for 2015, 2014 and 2013.
Note 5—Merchandise Inventories
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had inventory of $940.8 million and $872.5 million, of which $923.8 million
and $811.3 million were valued under LIFO. If LIFO inventories had been valued on a current cost or first-in, first-out (FIFO)
basis, they would have been greater by $116.4 million and $116.2 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. At December 31,
2015 and 2014, included in our inventory was $22.3 million and $20.0 million in raw materials, $10.6 million and $5.4 million
in work in process and the remainder was finished goods.
Note 6—Financing Receivables and Payables
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had financing receivables of $198.5 million and $196.2 million and related
payables of $148.5 million and $168.8 million outstanding under our order-to-cash program, which were included in other
current assets and other current liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets.

The gross value of assets recorded under capital leases was $38.7 million and $40.0 million with associated
accumulated depreciation of $13.7 million and $10.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Depreciation
expense for property and equipment and assets under capital leases was $36.3 million, $35.5 million and $33.1 million for the
years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013.
Property held for sale in our Domestic segment was $3.8 million at December 31, 2015 and is included in other
current assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. We are actively marketing the property for sale; however, the ultimate
timing is dependent on local market conditions. Property held for sale in our Domestic segment was $5.6 million at December
31, 2014.

Note 9—Exit and Realignment Costs
We periodically incur exit and realignment and other charges associated with optimizing our operations which
include the closure and consolidation of certain distribution and logistics centers, administrative offices and warehouses in the
United States and Europe. These charges also include costs associated with our strategic organizational realignment which
include management changes, certain professional fees, and costs to streamline administrative functions and processes.

On September 16, 2014, we issued $275 million of 3.875% senior notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and $275
million of 4.375% senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The 2021 Notes were sold at 99.5% of the principal amount with
an effective yield of 3.951%. The 2024 Notes were sold at 99.6% of the principal with an effective yield of 4.422%. Interest on
the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears, commencing on March 15, 2015 and December 15, 2014,
respectively. We have the option to redeem the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes in part or in whole prior to maturity at a redemption
price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments discounted
42
at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points. We are deferring and amortizing over the respective terms $4.8 million in costs
incurred in connection with the issuance of the 2021 Notes and the 2024 Notes.
On October 16, 2014, we used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2021 Notes and the 2024 Notes to fund the early
retirement of all of our $200 million of 6.35% senior notes due in 2016 (2016 Notes), which included the payment of a $17.4
million redemption premium. We recorded a net loss on the early retirement of our 2016 Notes of $14.9 million, which includes
the redemption premium offset by the recognition of a gain on previously settled interest rate swaps.
On September 17, 2014, we amended our existing Credit Agreement, increasing our borrowing capacity from $350
million to $450 million and extending the term through September 2019 (the Amended Credit Agreement). Under the
Amended Credit Agreement, we have the ability to request two one-year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate
commitments by up to $200 million. The interest rate on the Amended Credit Agreement, which is subject to adjustment
quarterly, is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an
adjustment based on the better of our debt ratings or leverage ratio (Credit Spread) as defined by the Amended Credit
Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 12.5 and 25.0 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The
terms of the Amended Credit Agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios
for leverage and interest coverage, including on a pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. Based on our leverage ratio at
December 31, 2015, the interest rate under the credit facility is LIBOR plus 1.375%.
At December 31, 2015, we had no borrowings and letters of credit of approximately $5.0 million outstanding under
the Amended Credit Agreement, leaving $445 million available for borrowing. We also have a $1.2 million and $1.5 million
letter of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, which supports our facilities leased in Europe.
The Amended Credit Agreement and Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions which could result in the
acceleration of payments due in the event of default of either agreement. We believe we were in compliance with our debt
covenants at December 31, 2015.
Cash payments for interest during 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $27.7 million, $18.5 million and $14.7 million.
We enter into long-term non-cancellable leases for certain warehouse equipment and vehicles which, for accounting
purposes, are classified as capital leases. We also operate a kitting facility acquired with Medical Action which is subject to a
long-term capital lease. As of December 31, 2015, we were obligated under capital leases for minimum annual rental payments

Note 11—Derivative Financial Instruments
We are directly and indirectly affected by changes in certain market conditions. These changes in market conditions
may adversely impact our financial performance and are referred to as “market risks.” When deemed appropriate, we use
derivatives as a risk management tool to mitigate the potential impact of certain market risks. The primary market risk managed
through the use of derivative instruments is foreign currency exchange risk.
43
We use forward contracts which are agreements to buy or sell a quantity of a currency or commodity at a
predetermined future date, and at a predetermined rate or price. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes.
The total notional values of our foreign currency derivatives was $2.0 million and $10.0 million as of December 31,
2015 and 2014. These contracts were acquired with the acquisition of ArcRoyal. We were not party to any derivatives as of or
for the year ended December 31, 2013. The notional amounts of the derivative instruments do not necessarily represent the
amounts exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a direct measure of our exposure to the financial risks described
above. The amounts are calculated by reference to the notional amounts and by other terms of the derivative, such as foreign
currency exchange rates. We determine the fair value of our derivatives based on quoted market prices. We do not view the fair
value of our derivatives in isolation, but rather in relation to the fair values or cash flows of the underlying exposure. Our
derivatives are straightforward over-the-counter instruments with liquid markets.
All derivatives are carried at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets in other assets and other liabilities line
items. We do not currently have any derivatives designated as hedging instruments and all gains and losses resulting from
changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are immediately recognized into earnings. At December 31, 2015 and 2014
the fair value of our foreign currency contracts included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets was $0.4 million and
$0.7 million. The impact from changes in the fair value of these foreign currency derivatives included in other operating
income, net was $0.3 million for 2015 and $0.2 million for 2014. We consider the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.
Note 12—Share-Based Compensation
We maintain a share-based compensation plan (the Plan) that is administered by the Compensation and Benefits
Committee of the Board of Directors. The Plan allows us to award or grant to officers, directors and employees incentive, non-
qualified and deferred compensation stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), performance shares, and restricted and
unrestricted stock. We use authorized and unissued common shares for grants of restricted stock or for stock option exercises.
At December 31, 2015, approximately 2.7 million common shares were available for issuance under the Plan.
Restricted stock awarded under the Plan generally vests over one, three or five years. Certain restricted stock grants
contain accelerated vesting provisions, based on the satisfaction of certain performance criteria related to the achievement of
certain financial and operational results. Performance shares awarded under the Plan are issuable as restricted stock upon
meeting performance goals and generally have a total performance and vesting period of three years. Stock options awarded
under the Plan are generally subject to graded vesting over three years and expire seven to ten years from the date of grant. The
options are granted at a price equal to fair market value at the date of grant. We did not grant any stock options in 2015, 2014,
or 2013.
We recognize the fair value of stock-based compensation awards, which is based upon the market price of the
underlying common stock at the grant date, on a straight-line basis over the estimated requisite service period, which may be
based on a service condition, a performance condition, or a combination of both. The fair value of performance shares as of the
date of grant is estimated assuming that performance goals will be achieved at target levels. If such goals are not probable of
being met, or are probable of being met at different levels, recognized compensation cost is adjusted to reflect the change in
estimated fair value of restricted stock to be issued at the end of the performance period.
Total share-based compensation expense for December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, was $11.3 million, $8.2 million
and $6.4 million, with recognized tax benefits of $4.4 million, $3.2 million and $2.5 million. Unrecognized compensation cost
related to nonvested restricted stock awards, net of estimated forfeitures, was $19.2 million at December 31, 2015. This amount
is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years, based on the maximum remaining vesting period
required under the awards, and the amount that would be recognized over a shorter period based on accelerated vesting
provisions, is approximately $0.5 million. Unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested performance share awards as
of December 31, 2015 was $2.5 million and will be recognized primarily in 2016 if the related performance targets are met.

Note 13—Retirement Plans
Savings and Retirement Plans. We maintain a voluntary 401(k) savings and retirement plan covering substantially
all full-time and certain part-time employees in the United States who have completed one month of service and have attained
age 18. We match a certain percentage of each employee’s contribution. The plan also provides for a minimum contribution by
us to the plan for all eligible employees of 1% of their salary, subject to certain limits, and discretionary profit-sharing
contributions. We may increase or decrease our matching contributions at our discretion, on a prospective basis. We incurred
$12.3 million, $10.8 million, and $10.1 million of expense related to this plan in 2015, 2014 and 2013. We also maintain
defined contribution plans in some of the European countries in which we operate. Expenses related to these plans were not
material in 2015, 2014 or 2013.
Domestic Retirement Plans. We have a noncontributory, unfunded retirement plan for certain officers and other key
employees in the United States (Domestic Retirement Plan). In February 2012, our Board of Directors amended the Domestic
Retirement Plan to freeze benefit levels and modify vesting provisions under the plan effective as of March 31, 2012.

Plan benefit obligations of the Domestic Retirement Plan were measured as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. Plan
benefit obligations are determined using assumptions developed at the measurement date. The weighted average discount rate,
which is used to calculate the present value of plan liabilities, is an estimate of the interest rate at which the plan liabilities
could be effectively settled at the measurement date. When estimating the discount rate, we review yields available on high-
quality, fixed-income debt instruments and use a yield curve model from which the discount rate is derived by applying the
projected benefit payments under the plan to points on a published yield curve.
The components of net periodic benefit cost for the Domestic Retirement Plan, which is included in selling, general,
and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income, were as follows:

International Retirement Plans. Certain of our foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans covering
substantially all of their respective employees. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the accumulated benefit obligation under
these plans was $1.9 million. We recorded $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million in net periodic benefit cost in selling,
general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

The valuation allowances relate to deferred tax assets in various state and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Based on
management’s judgments using available evidence about historical and expected future taxable earnings, management believes
it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefit of the existing deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, at
December 31, 2015. The valuation allowances primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards in non-U.S. jurisdictions
which have various expiration dates ranging from five years to an unlimited carryforward period. There were no significant
decreases in valuation allowances during 2015.
It is our intention to permanently reinvest the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations. As of
December 31, 2015, we have not made a provision for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes on investments in foreign
subsidiaries that are permanently reinvested, and there are no deferred tax liabilities that have not been provided.
Cash payments for income taxes, including interest, for 2015, 2014, and 2013 were $52.4 million, $81.6 million
and $65.4 million.

Included in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits at both December 31, 2015 and 2014, were $4.1 million of tax
positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such
deductibility. These tax positions are temporary differences which do not impact the annual effective tax rate under deferred tax
accounting. Any change in the deductibility period of these tax positions would impact the timing of cash payments to taxing
jurisdictions. Unrecognized tax benefits of $3.0 million and $2.0 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, would impact our
effective tax rate if recognized.
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Accrued
interest at December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $0.2 million and $0.3 million. We recognized $0.1 million in interest income in
2015 and $0.1 million in interest expense in 2014. There were no penalties accrued at December 31, 2015 or 2014 or
recognized in 2015, 2014 and 2013.
We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Our U.S. federal income
tax return for the year 2014 is subject to examination. Our income tax returns for U.S. state and local jurisdictions are
generally open for the years 2012 through 2014; however, certain returns may be subject to examination for differing periods.
The former owner is contractually obligated to indemnify us for all income tax liabilities incurred by the Movianto business
prior to its acquisition on August 31, 2012.

Note 16—Shareholders’ Equity
We had a shareholder rights agreement that expired on April 30, 2014 and was not renewed or replaced. All Rights
attendant to outstanding shares of our common stock under the agreement also expired on April 30, 2014.
In February 2014, our Board of Directors renewed our share repurchase program authorizing the purchase of $100
million in common stock through 2017. The timing of repurchases and the exact number of shares of common stock to be
repurchased will be determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors. The program is intended to
offset shares issued in conjunction with our stock incentive plan and return capital to our shareholders and may be suspended or
discontinued at any time. Purchases under the share repurchase program are made either pursuant to 10b5-1 plans entered into
by the company from time to time and/or during the company’s scheduled quarterly trading windows for officers and directors.
During the year ended December 31, 2015, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately 0.6
million shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $20.0 million, or an average price per share of $34.04. As of
December 31, 2015, we have $70.0 million in remaining shares available under the repurchase program. We have elected to
allocate any excess of share repurchase price over par value to retained earnings.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately
0.3 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $9.9 million, or an average price per share of $34.31.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately
0.6 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $18.9 million, or an average price per share of $33.72.
During 2014, we purchased the remaining outside stockholder's interest in a consolidated subsidiary that was
partially owned for $1.5 million. Therefore we do not present a noncontrolling interest as a component of shareholders' equity
as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. The noncontrolling interest in net income was not material in 2014 or 2013.

We include amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income related to defined benefit
pension plans as a component of net periodic pension cost recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. For the
years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 we reclassified $1.6 million, $0.8 million and $1.4 million of actuarial net
losses.
Note 18—Commitments and Contingencies
We have a contractual commitment to outsource information technology operations, including the management and
operation of our information technology systems and distributed services processing, as well as application support,
development and enhancement services. This agreement expires in October 2017, with two optional one year extensions. The
commitment is cancelable with 180 days notice and payment of a termination fee based upon certain costs which would be
incurred by the vendor as a direct result of the early termination.
We pay scheduled fees under the agreement, which can vary based on changes in the Consumer Price Index and the
level of support required. Assuming no early termination of the contract, our estimated remaining annual obligations under this
agreement are $35.8 million in 2016 and $29.8 million in 2017. We paid $35.9 million, $36.6 million and $45.7 million under
this contract in 2015, 2014, and 2013.
51
We have entered into non-cancelable agreements to lease most of our office and warehouse facilities with remaining
terms generally ranging from one to 20 years. Certain leases include renewal options, generally for five-year increments. We
also lease most of our transportation and material handling equipment for terms generally ranging from three to ten years. At
December 31, 2015, future minimum annual payments under non-cancelable lease agreements with original terms in excess of
one year, and including payments required under operating leases for facilities we have vacated, are as follows:

Rent expense for all operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, was $70.8 million,
$77.8 million and $76.7 million.
Prior to exiting the direct-to-consumer business in January 2009, we received reimbursements from Medicare,
Medicaid, and private healthcare insurers for certain customer billings. We were subject to audits of these reimbursements for
up to seven years from the date of the service. Such audit rights expired in January 2016.
In the first quarter of 2015, we settled our dispute and terminated the service contract with a customer in the United
Kingdom. As part of the settlement, we entered into a transition agreement for the transfer of services back to this customer and
paid approximately $3.9 million that was fully accrued at December 31, 2014. In late 2015, we received an insurance recovery
of $1.5 million related to this settlement.
Note 19—Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal actions that are ordinary and incidental to our business, including contract disputes,
employment, workers’ compensation, product liability, regulatory and other matters. We have insurance coverage for
employment, product liability, workers’ compensation and other personal injury litigation matters, subject to policy limits,
applicable deductibles and insurer solvency. We establish reserves from time to time based upon periodic assessment of the
potential outcomes of pending matters.
Based on current knowledge and the advice of counsel, we believe that the accrual as of December 31, 2015 for
currently pending matters considered probable of loss, which is not material, is sufficient. In addition, we believe that other
currently pending matters are not reasonably likely to result in a material loss, as payment of the amounts claimed is remote,
the claims are insignificant, individually and in the aggregate, or the claims are expected to be adequately covered by
insurance.
Note 20—Segment Information
We periodically evaluate our application of accounting guidance for reportable segments and disclose information
about reportable segments based on the way management organizes the enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing
performance. We report our business under two segments: Domestic and International. The Domestic segment includes all
functions relating to our role as a medical supply logistics company providing distribution, kitting and logistics services to
healthcare providers and manufacturers in the United States. The International segment consists of our European third-party
logistics and kitting businesses.
We evaluate the performance of our segments based on their operating earnings excluding acquisition-related and
exit and realignment charges, certain purchase price fair value adjustments, and other substantive items that, either as a result of
their nature or size, would not be expected to occur as part of the our normal business operations on a regular basis.

Note 21—Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information for: Owens & Minor, Inc. (O&M); the
guarantors of Owens & Minor, Inc.’s 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes, on a combined basis; and the non-guarantor subsidiaries of the
2021 Notes and 2024 Notes, on a combined basis. The guarantor subsidiaries are 100% owned by Owens & Minor, Inc. Separate
financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because the guarantees by our guarantor subsidiaries are full and
unconditional, as well as joint and several, and we believe the condensed consolidating financial information is more meaningful in
understanding the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the guarantor subsidiaries.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Owens & Minor, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Owens & Minor, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015
and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Owens & Minor, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
Owens & Minor, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal
Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO), and our report dated February 25, 2016, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting.
