My guest on the show today is Stan Bergman, the Chairman and CEO of Henry Schein. Henry Schein is a Fortune 500, 10.6 billion dollar market cap, global distributor of medical and dental supplies and equipment. Stan has been CEO since 1989 and actually took the company public in 1995 for a split adjusted price of $6. From a revenue base of around 1 billion dollars in 1995, the company has grown to over $12 billion today and the stock price has appreciated to over $75. And, these numbers don’t even include the animal health business that was spun off in 2018. That company, Covetrus, currently has a 2.4 billion market cap on its own. Given Stan’s long track record of success, I was looking forward to talking to Stan about:

• The importance of dental health as a component of overall health;
• The company’s long-term track record of compounding earnings per share;
• Why the medical division has seen such rapid growth;
• The company’s international growth strategy and associated opportunities;
• Henry Schein’s unique culture
