1 Becton, Dickinson and Company (BDX-NYSE) Lawrence Keusch, (617) , John Hsu, CFA, Sr. Res. Assoc., (617) , Hospital Supplies & Equipment F1Q Results Solid, FY16 Outlook Intact When Looking Through the Noise Recommendation: We maintain our Strong Buy rating on BDX shares. Relative to the Street, BD reported F1Q results with sales missing by 1% and EPS exceeding the consensus by 7%. FX continues to be a considerable headwind (incremental impact of 300 bp, now 450 bp) to FY16 sales growth. However, reflecting strong execution on the CareFusion acquisition and core operational improvements, annual EPS guidance was unchanged. Moreover, we find Street concerns regarding sales acceleration overdone. We expect organic constant currency (cc) sales to rebound from 1.8% in F1Q to the targeted % for FY16 driven by a combination of continued execution, new product launches, and easing comps for CareFusion and emerging markets, especially in the second half of the year. We note the 4.2% underlying organic cc sales growth for F1Q bodes well for growth improving. We find BD well positioned to deliver consistent financial results and have confidence in the EPS outlook. We continue to find the valuation attractive with a 14.6x P/E multiple and 7.3% FCF yield on our calendar 2017 estimates. With the shares under pressure, despite solid fundamentals, we find the share price compelling. Call highlights: 1) When normalizing the 1.8% F1Q pro forma cc sales growth (60 bp flu, 70 bp tough CareFusion comp, timing 90 bp, and sequestration 20 bp), underlying growth was 4.2%. 2) BD faces easing comps in emerging markets (16% of sales), China, and CareFusion, especially in the 2H (see page 3). In turn, we see estimated growth of 4-5% pro forma in F2Q, and 6% in the second half. 3) Although China sales (5% of total) grew 4.5% cc in F1Q, we expect an acceleration to 9-10% for FY16 with F1Q representing the toughest comp with 23% cc growth last year, new CareFusion products, and capital sales forecasts tempered. 4) F1Q EPS exceeded the midpoint of guidance by $0.13. However, incremental FX was $0.28 for FY16, implying an operational improvement of $0.15 in the unchanged annual EPS guidance. 5) BD is on track to reduce its leverage ratio below 3.0x by March 2017 and has paid off ~$1 billion in debt thus far. 6) FY16 assumes a euro of FY16 guidance updated: The outlook for pro forma cc sales growth of % was unchanged. Likewise, reported EPS guidance of $ was also maintained. The FX headwind is now 450 bp on the top line and 900 bp to EPS. Estimates: 2016 revenue is now $12.3 billion from $12.6 billion prior, and no change to EPS. Valuation: Our $176 price target weights P/E (19x) and EV/EBITDA (12x) multiples on CY17 estimates and a 10-year DCF value ($186). Our P/E and EV/EBITDA multiples are justified by low-mid-teens EPS growth (see page 7).

Ratings and Definitions Raymond James & Associates (U.S.) definitions Strong Buy (SB1) Expected to appreciate, produce a total return of at least 15%, and outperform the S&P 500 over the next six to 12 months. For higher yielding and more conservative equities, such as REITs and certain MLPs, a total return of at least 15% is expected to be realized over the next 12 months. Outperform (MO2) Expected to appreciate and outperform the S&P 500 over the next months. For higher yielding and more conservative equities, such as REITs and certain MLPs, an Outperform rating is used for securities where we are comfortable with the relative safety of the dividend and expect a total return modestly exceeding the dividend yield over the next months.

9 Market Perform (MP3) Expected to perform generally in line with the S&P 500 over the next 12 months. Underperform (MU4) Expected to underperform the S&P 500 or its sector over the next six to 12 months and should be sold. Suspended (S) The rating and price target have been suspended temporarily.

Raymond James Relationship Disclosures Raymond James expects to receive or intends to seek compensation for investment banking services from the subject companies in the next three months. Company Name Becton, Dickinson and Company Disclosure Raymond James & Associates makes a market in shares of BDX. Stock Charts, Target Prices, and Valuation Methodologies Valuation Methodology: The Raymond James methodology for assigning ratings and target prices includes a number of qualitative and quantitative factors including an assessment of industry size, structure, business trends and overall attractiveness; management effectiveness; competition; visibility; financial condition, and expected total return, among other factors. These factors are subject to change depending on overall economic conditions or industry- or company-specific occurrences. Only stocks rated Strong Buy (SB1) or Outperform (MO2) have target prices and thus valuation methodologies. Target Prices: The information below indicates our target price and rating changes for BDX stock over the past three years. Valuation Methodology: Our valuation methodology is predicated on a 40%, 30%, and 30% weighting of our P/E, EV/EBITDA, and 10-year DCF driven valuation targets, respectively. Risk Factors General Risk Factors: Following are some general risk factors that pertain to the businesses of the subject companies and the projected target prices and recommendations included on Raymond James research: (1) Industry fundamentals with respect to customer demand or product / service pricing could change and adversely impact expected revenues and earnings; (2) Issues relating to major competitors or market shares or new product expectations could change investor attitudes toward the sector or this stock; (3) Unforeseen developments with respect to the management, financial condition or accounting policies or practices could alter the prospective valuation; or (4) External factors that affect the U.S. economy, interest rates, the U.S. dollar or major segments of the economy could alter investor confidence and investment prospects. International investments involve additional risks such as currency fluctuations, differing financial accounting standards, and possible political and economic instability.

11 Specific Investment Risks Related to the Industry or Issuer Hospital Supplies & Equipment Risk Factors Clinical Trial Results/FDA Rulings New products are a significant source of growth for most hospital supplies and equipment companies and are factored into earnings expectations. Push-back of clinical trial timelines and/or negative rulings by the FDA for new products may delay or diminish growth prospects and could result in significant decline in a stock price. Device Recalls Safety concerns or product failures may be financially material in terms of lost sales and expensive litigation issues. Reimbursement When the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) lower reimbursement rates, customers (hospitals, GPOs, and IDNs) will pressure companies to lower prices for products. As prices drop, so does profitability. Without lowering prices, volume may suffer. New Technology As less invasive or less expensive technologies come onto the market, competition increases and may result in lower operating results for incumbent products. Intellectual Property Issues Most medical device companies rely on technical innovation to develop products and maintain a competitive advantage. Loss of patent protection may increase competition for a medical device company. Infringing on a competitor's patent can result in litigation expenses, royalty payments, or being forced to stop selling a product. Healthcare Reform Act The impact of the Healthcare Reform Act could have a material adverse effect on company results. Cost-containment efforts of customers, purchasing groups and governmental organizations could have a material adverse effect on sales and profitability. In an effort to reduce costs, many existing and potential customers within the United States have joined GPOs and IDNs, in an effort to negotiate lower prices through economies of scale. Further, the increasing leverage of organized buying groups may reduce market prices for products, thereby reducing industry profitability. Company-Specific Risks for Becton, Dickinson and Company Changes to top-line growth assumptions; price reductions due to hospital purchasing pressure; changes in product usage due to the US healthcare reform legislation; reductions to government reimbursement; FDA actions; product recalls; delays in new product clearance timelines; setbacks in the company's R&D initiatives; strengthening in the US dollar; competition; limited operating margin expansion; dilutive acquisitions; and adverse legal outcomes.
