Narrow-Moat Steris' Recurring Revenue and Margin Improvement Create Opportunistic Outlook

Steris is a leading provider of sterilization products and services to healthcare organizations, biopharma producers, and device manufacturers. The company also has a strong presence across operating rooms and endoscopy centers. Over the past few years, Steris has closed several acquisitions to enhance its healthcare offerings. With more procedures shifting to an outpatient setting, we think Steris’ expanded product portfolio positions itself as a “one-stop shop” that supplies mission-critical sterilization equipment and services. The burgeoning ambulatory surgery centers and physicians’ offices should benefit the most when sourcing from Steris, as they don’t necessarily have the capacity to deal with multiple vendors.
