Revenue by geography
- United States
- Europe
- Canada
- Other
| Region | FY2025 | FY2024 | FY2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | $629.5M | $616.7M | $591.0M |
| Europe | $232.2M | $196.0M | $187.5M |

As the company reported it, from the “Segment and Geographic Information - Schedule of Revenues (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Regions are the filer's own and are not mapped onto a standard list — one company's “Americas” and another's “United States” are different areas, and making them look comparable would mean making at least one of them wrong. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
Revenue by segment
- Sterigenics
- Nelson Labs
- Nordion
| Segment | FY2025 | FY2024 | FY2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sterigenics | $755.8M | $697.9M | $667.1M |
| Nelson Labs | $220.2M | $229.2M | $221.7M |
| Nordion | $187.6M | $173.4M | $160.5M |
As the company reported it, from the “Segment and Geographic Information - Schedule of Segment Operating Results (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Segments are the filer's own reporting structure, which is a decision about how it runs itself rather than a standard taxonomy: two companies in the same industry routinely divide themselves along different lines, so these are worth reading down a single company rather than across two. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
