**Bausch + Lomb to Highlight Company Transformation and Growth Strategy at Investor Day**

VAUGHAN, Ontario, Nov. 13, 2025 – Bausch + Lomb Corporation (NYSE/TSX: BLCO), a leading global eye health company dedicated to helping people see better to live better, will outline the next chapter of its evolution today during an investor day event at the New York Stock Exchange.

**Leading Through Reinvention**

Over the past few years, Bausch + Lomb has undergone a complete transformation by redefining how it operates. The company has sharpened its focus through simplification, rebuilt its culture around accountability and innovation and embraced AI and other new technologies to succeed now and well into the future.

"Bausch + Lomb today is a fundamentally different company than it was just a few years ago," said Brent Saunders, chairman and CEO, Bausch + Lomb. "We've reignited a sense of ownership and ambition across the organization to better serve patients, customers and consumers and deliver sustainable, profitable growth."

**Three-Year Plan for Profitable Growth<sup>1</sup>**

During the event, Bausch + Lomb leadership will unveil plans to achieve above-market revenue growth and meaningful margin expansion. The company's target of 5 – 7% constant currency revenue CAGR<sup>2</sup> through 2028 is expected to be driven by holistic growth in its base business and recent product launches across the spectrum of eye health needs. The company's target of approximately 23% adjusted EBITDA (ex. Acq. IPR&D) margin<sup>2</sup> in 2028 is expected to be fueled by continuous improvements to how it sources, makes and sells products, and an ongoing examination of opportunities to streamline internal processes. Bausch + Lomb will also announce additional financial targets of double-digit adjusted annual earnings per share growth (ex. Acq. IPR&D)<sup>2</sup> from 2026 – 2028, approximately 50% adjusted cash flow from operations to adjusted EBITDA (ex. Acq. IPR&D) conversion<sup>2</sup> in 2028 and net leverage<sup>2</sup> of approximately 3.5x by the end of 2028.

The company will also reaffirm its 2025 guidance.

"Our roadmap to above-market growth and meaningful margin expansion is clear," said Sam Eldessouky, executive vice president and chief financial officer, Bausch + Lomb. "We're driving P&L leverage and making smart investments in innovation and execution to ensure that every dollar contributes to long-term value creation for our shareholders."

<sup>1</sup> The financial targets and guidance in this news release are only effective as of the date given, November 13, 2025, and will not be updated or affirmed unless and until the Company publicly announces updated or affirmed financial targets or guidance. Distribution or reference of this news release following November 13, 2025, does not constitute the Company re-affirming these financial targets and guidance. See the "Forward-looking Statements" section for further information.

<sup>2</sup> This is a non-GAAP measure or ratio. For further information on non-GAAP measures and ratios, please refer to the "Non-GAAP Information" section of this news release.

**Loaded and Differentiated Pipeline**

Most of the event will be dedicated to Bausch + Lomb's rebuilt product pipeline, with R&D and commercial leaders highlighting potential game-changing innovations at varying clinical stages in each business unit. Total projected peak sales of pipeline products, with anticipated peaks staggered based on launch dates, is approximately $7 billion.

"We're pushing the boundaries of ocular science to transform how eye diseases – from common to complex – are understood, treated and ultimately prevented," said Yehia Hashad, MD, executive vice president, R&D and chief medical officer, Bausch + Lomb. "We've been bringing new products to market at a record pace, and our innovation engine is built to sustain growth well into the next decade."

Pipeline products by business that will be highlighted:

This news release contains forward-looking information and statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws (collectively, "forward-looking statements"), which may generally be identified by the use of the words "anticipates," "expects," "predicts," "projects," "goals," "intends," "plans," "should," "could," "would," "may," "might," "will," "strive," "believes," "estimates," "potential," "target," "commit," "forecast," "outlook," "guidance," "tracking" or "continue" and positive and negative variations or similar expressions, and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results may, could, should or will be achieved, received or taken or will occur or result, and similar such expressions also identify forward-looking information. These forward-looking statements, including the Company's 2025 full-year guidance, its three-year financial targets, anticipated launch dates for pipeline products and projected peak sales, are based upon the current expectations and beliefs of management and are provided for the purpose of providing additional information about such expectations and beliefs, and readers are cautioned that these statements may not be appropriate for other purposes. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in Bausch + Lomb's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Canadian Securities Administrators (the "CSA"), including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (which was filed with the SEC and CSA on February 19, 2025) and its most recent quarterly filings, which factors are incorporated herein by reference. They also include risks relating to the development of pipeline products, including the risk that studies may not produce successful results

Page 3<br>

or demonstrate safety and efficacy in humans, risks that pre-clinical and clinical trials may be delayed (which, in turn, may delay the launch of these products) and risks that the regulatory approval of products may be lengthy, costly and, ultimately, not successful. They also include risks relating to the launch and commercialization of products, including risks relating to the costs, required resources and unpredictability of commercial launches, risks that products may not achieve the anticipated levels of market acceptance, which can result from a number of factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control, risks that products may experience negative publicity or reputational harm, competitive risks, such as competitors beating the Company to market or developing new or better technologies and risks that the Company may face supply interruptions with finished products or components thereof, which, in turn, may impact the Company's ability to successfully launch or commercialize products. They also include risks and uncertainties respecting the proposed plan to separate the Company into an independent, publicly traded company, separate from the remainder of Bausch Health Companies Inc. ("BHC") (the "separation"), which include, but are not limited to, the expected benefits and costs of the separation, the expected timing of completion of the separation and its manner and terms (including that it may include the transfer of all or a portion of BHC's remaining direct or indirect equity interest in Bausch + Lomb to its shareholders (the "distribution")), the expectation that, if the separation is to be effected through a distribution, then it will be completed following the achievement of targeted debt leverage ratios, subject to market conditions and receipt of applicable shareholder and other necessary approvals and other factors (including those described in BHC's public statements), the ability to complete the distribution considering the various conditions to the completion of the distribution (some of which are outside the Company's and BHC's control, including conditions related to regulatory matters and receipt of applicable shareholder and other approvals), the impact of any potential sales or dispositions of the Company's common shares by BHC (including in connection with a foreclosure on the Bausch + Lomb common shares owned by BHC that are or maybe pledged as collateral for certain of BHC's debt), that market or other conditions are no longer favorable to completing the transaction, that applicable shareholder, stock exchange, regulatory or other approval is not obtained on the terms or timelines anticipated or at all, business disruption during the pendency of or following the separation, diversion of management time on separation-related issues, retention of existing management team members, the reaction of customers and other parties to the separation, the structure of the distribution, the qualification of the distribution as a tax-free transaction for Canadian and/or U.S. federal income tax purposes (including whether or not an advance ruling from the Canada Revenue Agency and/or the Internal Revenue Service will be sought or obtained), the ability of the Company and BHC to satisfy the conditions required to maintain the tax-free status of the distribution (some of which are beyond their control), other potential tax or other liabilities that may arise as a result of the distribution, the potential dis-synergy costs resulting from the separation, the impact of the separation on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business counterparties, general economic conditions, conditions in the markets the Company is engaged in, behavior of customers, suppliers and competitors, technological developments and legal and regulatory rules affecting the Company's business. In particular, the Company can offer no assurance that the separation will occur at all, or that any such transaction will occur on the terms and timelines or in the manner anticipated by the Company and BHC. They also include risks and uncertainties relating to acquisitions and other business development transactions the Company has completed or may, in the future, pursue and complete, including risks that pending transactions may not close, risks that the Company may not realize the expected benefits of those transactions on a timely basis or at all and, where applicable, risks relating to increased levels of debt as a result of debt incurred to finance such transactions, including in regards to compliance with the Company's debt covenants. They also include the expected impact of the tariffs imposed by the U.S. and counter-tariffs or other

Page 4<br>

retaliatory measures imposed on the U.S. by other countries and disruptions to global supply chains and other potential results as a result of these developments and the Company's ability to successfully manage the expected impact of such tariffs and counter-tariffs and other measures, including the success of planned actions and levers to manage these matters. Finally, they also include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties caused by or relating to a potential recession and other adverse economic conditions (such as heightened inflation and interest rates, fluctuations in exchange rates, imposition of and adverse changes to tariffs, duties and other trade protection measures and slower growth), which could adversely impact the Company's revenues, expenses and resulting margins. In addition, certain material factors and assumptions have been applied in making these forward-looking statements, including the assumption that the risks and uncertainties outlined above will not cause actual results or events to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. In addition, management has also made certain assumptions regarding 2025 full-year guidance with respect to expectations regarding base performance growth, business performance, currency impact, impacts of inflation, the Company's ability to offset the impact of tariffs in 2025 (based on the current tariff policy and the actions the Company is taking to manage these measures), adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP), adjusted SG&A expense (non-GAAP) and the Company's ability to continue to manage such expense in the manner anticipated, interest expense (which will vary based on, among other things, interest rates and the Company's indebtedness), adjusted tax rate, and full year capex and the anticipated timing and extent of the Company's R&D expense. In addition, management has also made certain assumptions regarding its three year financial targets, including with respect to expectations regarding constant currency CAGRs for segments and businesses over the period, anticipated adjusted R&D expense, anticipated CapEx over the period, expectations regarding adjusted tax rate and anticipated share count.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. Bausch + Lomb undertakes no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law.

**Non-GAAP Information**

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures and ratios. Management uses these non-GAAP measures and ratios as key metrics in the evaluation of the Company's performance and the consolidated financial results and, in part, in the determination of cash bonuses for its executive officers. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures and ratios are useful to investors in their assessment of the Company's operating performance and the valuation of the Company. In addition, these non-GAAP measures and ratios address questions the Company routinely receives from analysts and investors, and in order to assure that all investors have access to similar data, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to make this data available to all investors.

These measures and ratios do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures and ratios that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures and ratios. Accordingly, the Company's non-GAAP financial measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures and ratios of other companies. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on such non-GAAP measures and ratios, but instead to consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures and ratios. Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios have limitations as analytical tools and should not be

Page 5<br>

considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

For outlook purposes, the Company does not provide reconciliations of projected Constant Currency Revenue Growth to projected GAAP Revenue Growth, projected Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss), projected Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss) margin, projected Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations to projected Cash flow from operations/Cash used in operations (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation, the components of projected net leverage to their GAAP equivalents (project net debt to debt and projected Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss)), or projected Adjusted EPS Attributable to Bausch + Lomb (excl. Acq. IPR&D) to projected Diluted income per share attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation ("GAAP EPS") in each case, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. These amounts may be material and, therefore, could result in the projected GAAP measure or ratio being materially different or less than the projected non-GAAP measure or ratio. These statements represent forward-looking information and may represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-looking Statements section of this news release.

***Specific Non-GAAP Measures***

*EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D*

EBITDA (non-GAAP) is Net income (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) adjusted for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is EBITDA (non-GAAP) further adjusted for the items described below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP), along with the GAAP measures used by management, most appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally and sets operational goals and incentives. In particular, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) focuses management on the Company's underlying operational results and business performance. As a result, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) both to assess the actual financial performance of the Company and to forecast future results as part of its guidance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is a useful measure to evaluate current performance. Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is intended to show unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects the Company's financial performance based on operational factors. In addition, cash bonuses for the Company's executive officers and other key employees are based, in part, on the achievement of certain Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) targets. Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-GAAP) is Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) divided by Revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) is Net income (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) adjusted for interest expense, net, (benefit from) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted for the following items:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Asset impairments: The Company has excluded the impact of impairments of finite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets as such
amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions and divestitures.
The Company believes that the adjustments of these items correlate with the sustainability of the Company's operating performance.
Although the Company excludes impairments of intangible assets from measuring the performance of the Company and its business, the Company
believes

Page 6<br>

that it is important for investors to understand that intangible assets contribute to revenue generation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Restructuring, integration and transformation costs: The Company has incurred restructuring costs as it implemented certain strategies,
which involved, among other things, improvements to its infrastructure and operations, internal reorganizations and impacts from the divestiture
of assets and businesses. With regard to infrastructure and operational improvements which the Company has taken to improve efficiencies
in the businesses and facilities, these tend to be costs intended to right size the business or organization that fluctuate significantly
between periods in amount, size and timing, depending on the improvement project, reorganization or transaction. Additionally, with the
completion of the Bausch + Lomb IPO, as the Company prepares for post-separation operations, the Company is launching certain transformation
initiatives that will result in certain changes to and investment in its organizational structure and operations. These transformation
initiatives arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations and, as is the case with the Company's restructuring efforts,
costs associated with these transformation initiatives are expected to fluctuate between periods in amount, size and timing. These out-of-the-ordinary-course
charges include third-party advisory costs, as well as certain compensation-related costs. Investors should understand that the outcome
of these transformation initiatives may result in future restructuring actions and certain of these charges could recur. The Company believes
that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company's operating
performance, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance and, as a result, provide
useful supplemental information to investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Acquisition-related costs and adjustments excluding amortization of intangible assets: The Company has excluded the impact of acquisition-related
costs and fair value inventory step-up resulting from acquisitions as the amounts and frequency of such costs and adjustments are not
consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of its acquisitions. In addition, the Company excludes the impact of
acquisition-related contingent consideration non-cash adjustments due to the inherent uncertainty and volatility associated with such
amounts based on changes in assumptions with respect to fair value estimates, and the amount and frequency of such adjustments are not
consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of the Company's acquisitions, as well as the nature of the agreed-upon
consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Share-based compensation: The Company excludes costs relating to share-based compensation. The Company believes that the exclusion
of share-based compensation expense assists investors in the comparisons of operating results to peer companies. Share-based compensation
expense can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Separation costs and separation-related costs: The Company has excluded certain costs incurred in connection with activities taken
to: (i) separate the Bausch + Lomb business from the remainder of BHC and (ii) register the Bausch + Lomb business as an independent publicly
traded entity. Separation costs are incremental costs directly related to effectuating the separation of the Bausch + Lomb business from
the remainder of BHC and include, but are not limited to, legal, audit and advisory fees, talent acquisition costs and costs associated
with establishing a new Board of Directors and Audit Committee. Separation-related costs are incremental costs indirectly related to the
separation of the Bausch + Lomb business from the remainder of BHC and include, but are not limited to, IT infrastructure and software
licensing costs, rebranding costs and costs associated with facility relocation and/or modification. As these costs arise from events
outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations, the Company believes that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental
information with

Page 7<br>

regard to the sustainability of the Company's operating performance, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Gain (Loss) on extinguishment of debt: The Company has excluded loss on extinguishment of debt as this represents a loss from refinancing
its existing debt and is not a reflection of its operations for the period. Further, the amount and frequency of such amounts are not
consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of debt financing transactions and other factors in the debt market that
are not in management's control. Bausch + Lomb did not have any material losses on extinguishment of debt prior to the second quarter
of 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Other Non-GAAP adjustments: The Company also excludes certain other amounts, including IT infrastructure investment, litigation and
other matters, gain/(loss) on sales of assets and certain other amounts that are the result of other, non-comparable events to measure
operating performance if and when present in the periods presented. These events arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations.
Given the unique nature of the matters relating to these costs, the Company believes these items are not routine operating expenses. For
example, legal settlements and judgments vary significantly, in their nature, size and frequency, and, due to this volatility, the Company
believes the costs associated with legal settlements and judgments are not routine operating expenses. The Company excluded these costs
as this event is outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations and infrequent in nature. The Company believes that the exclusion
of such out-of-the-ordinary-course amounts provides supplemental information to assist in the comparison of the financial results of the
Company from period to period and, therefore, provides useful supplemental information to investors. However, investors should understand
that many of these costs could recur and that companies in the industry often face litigation.

Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired In-Process Research and Development (IPR&D) (non-GAAP) is Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) further adjusted to exclude Acquired IPR&D. Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired In-Process Research and Development (IPR&D) is Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) further adjusted to exclude Acquired IPR&D divided by Revenues. The IPR&D expenditures represent costs directly resulting from business development transactions and not through the normal course of business. The Company believes that the exclusion of such out-of-the-ordinary-course amounts provides supplemental information to assist in the comparison of the financial results of the Company from period to period and, therefore, provides useful supplemental information to investors in assessing the Company's performance. However, investors should understand that the Company may enter into additional business development transactions in the future and, as a result, such Acquired IPR&D may recur in the future.

*Constant Currency*<br> Constant currency change or constant currency growth is calculated by adjusting or further adjusting a measure or ratio by changes in or impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Constant currency impact is determined by comparing 2025 amounts adjusted to exclude currency impact, calculated using 2024 monthly average exchange rates, to the actual 2024 reported amounts. Constant currency revenue is GAAP revenue (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses Constant Currency Revenues (non-GAAP) and Constant Currency Revenue Growth (non-GAAP) to assess performance of its reportable segments, and the Company in total, without the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The Company believes that such measures are useful to investors as they provide a supplemental period-to-period comparison.

Page 8<br>

Although changes in foreign currency exchange rates are part of the business, they are not within management's control. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates, however, can mask positive or negative trends in the underlying business performance.

*Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations/Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations to Adj. EBITDA (excl. acq. IPR&D) conversion* 

Adjusted cash flow from operations (non-GAAP) is Cash flow from operations/Cash used in operations (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for: (i) payments of legacy legal settlements, net of insurance proceeds, if any (ii) payments for separation costs, IPO costs, separation-related costs, and IPO-related costs (iii) payments for business transformation costs and (iv) payments for financing fees related to the modification of debt, if any. Management believes that Adjusted cash flow from operations (non-GAAP), along with the GAAP and non-GAAP measures used by management, most appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally. The Company uses Adjusted cash flow from operations (non-GAAP) both to assess the actual financial performance of the Company and to forecast future results as part of its guidance. Management believes Adjusted cash flow from operations (non-GAAP) is a useful measure to evaluate current performance amounts. As these payments arise from events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations as discussed above, the Company believes that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company's cash from operations, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors. Adjusted cash flow from operations to Adj. EBITDA (excl. acq. IPR&D) conversion is Adjusted cash flow from operations divided by Adjusted EBITDA (excluding Acquired IPR&D).

*Net Leverage* 

Net Leverage is the ratio of net debt (which is calculated as total debt (its GAAP equivalent) less cash and cash equivalents) over Adjusted EBITDA (excluding Acquired IPR&D). Management believes that net leverage is an important measure of the Company's overall liquidity position and an indicator of its ability to meet financial obligations.

*Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP)*<br> Adjusted earnings per share or Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) is calculated as Diluted income per share attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation ("GAAP EPS") (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure), adjusted for the per diluted share impact of each adjustment made to reconcile Net income (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation to Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) as discussed above. Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) is Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) further adjusted for the per diluted share impact of Acquired IPR&D. Like Adjusted net income (non-GAAP), Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) excludes the impact of certain items that may obscure trends in the Company's underlying performance on a per share basis. By disclosing these non-GAAP measures, it is management's intention to provide investors with a meaningful, supplemental comparison of the Company's results and trends for the periods presented on a diluted share basis. Accordingly, the Company believes that Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP) are useful to investors in their assessment of the Company's operating performance, the valuation of the Company and an investor's return on investment. It is also noted that, for the periods presented, the Company's GAAP EPS was significantly lower than its Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non-GAAP).

These forward - looking statements, including the Company's 2025 full - year guidance and its three - year financial targets, are based upon the current expectations an d beliefs of management and are provided for the purpose of providing additional information about such expectations and beliefs, and readers are cautioned that these stateme nts may not be appropriate for other purposes. These forward - looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially f rom those described in the forward - looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in Bausch + Lomb's filin gs with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Canadian Securities Administrators (the "CSA") (including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (which was filed with the SEC and CSA on February 19, 2025) and its most recent quarterly filings), which factors are incorporated herein by refere nce . They also include risks relating to the development of our pipeline products, including the risk that our studies may not produce successful results or demonstrate safety and ef fic acy in humans, risks that our pre - clinical and clinical trials may be delayed (which, in turn, may delay the launch of these products) and risks that the regulatory approval of our pro ducts may be lengthy, costly and, ultimately, not successful. They also include risks relating to the launch and commercialization of our products, including risks relating to th e costs, required resources and unpredictability of commercial launches, risks that our products may not achieve the anticipated levels of market acceptance, which can result fr om a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control, risks that our products may experience negative publicity or reputational harm, competitive risks, such as our c omp etitors beating us to market or developing new or better technologies and risks that we may face supply interruptions with our finished products or components thereof, which, in turn , m ay impact our ability to successfully launch or commercialize our products. They also include risks and uncertainties respecting the proposed plan to separate the Company in to an independent, publicly traded company, separate from the remainder of Bausch Health Companies Inc. ("BHC") (the "separation"), which include, but are not limited to, the exp ect ed benefits and costs of the separation, the expected timing of completion of the separation and its manner and terms (including that it may include the transfer of all or a porti on of BHC's remaining direct or indirect equity interest in Bausch + Lomb to its shareholders (the "distribution")), the expectation that, if the separation is to be effected through a dis tribution, then it will be completed following the achievement of targeted debt leverage ratios, subject to market conditions and receipt of applicable shareholder and other ne ces sary approvals and other factors (including those described in BHC's public statements), the ability to complete the distribution considering the various conditions to the com ple tion of the distribution (some of which are outside the Company's and BHC's control, including conditions related to regulatory matters and receipt of applicable shareholder and oth er approvals), the impact of any potential sales or dispositions of the Company's common shares by BHC (including in connection with a foreclosure on the Bausch + Lomb common sh are s owned by BHC that are or maybe pledged as collateral for certain of BHC's debt), that market or other conditions are no longer favorable to completing the transacti on, that applicable shareholder, stock exchange, regulatory or other approval is not obtained on the terms or timelines anticipated or at all, business disruption during the pendency of or following the separation, diversion of management time on separation - related issues, retention of existing management team members, the reaction of customers and other parties to the separation, the structure of the distribution, the qualification of the distribution as a tax - free transaction for Canadian and/or U.S. federal income tax purposes (including whet her or not an advance ruling from the Canada Revenue Agency and/or the Internal Revenue Service will be sought or obtained), the ability of the Company and BHC to satisfy the con dit ions required to maintain the tax - free status of the distribution (some of which are beyond their control), other potential tax or other liabilities that may arise as a result of th e distribution, the potential dis - synergy costs resulting from the separation, the impact of the separation on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business counter par ties, general economic conditions, conditions in the markets the Company is engaged in, behavior of customers, suppliers and competitors, technological developments and legal and re gulatory rules affecting the Company's business. In particular, the Company can offer no assurance that the separation will occur at all, or that any such transaction will oc cur on the terms and timelines or in the manner anticipated by the Company and BHC. They also include risks and uncertainties relating to acquisitions and other business development tr ans actions the Company has completed or may, in the future, pursue and complete, including risks that pending transactions may not close, risks that the Company may not realize the expected benefits of those transactions on a timely basis or at all and, where applicable, risks relating to increased levels of debt as a result of debt incurred to finance suc h t ransactions, including in regards to compliance with our debt covenants. They also include the expected impact of the tariffs imposed by the U.S. and counter - tariffs or other retaliatory mea sures imposed on the U.S. by other countries and disruptions to global supply chains and other potential results as a result of these developments and our ability to successf ull y manage the expected impact of such tariffs and counter - tariffs and other measures, including the success of our planned actions and levers to manage these matters. Finally, th ey also include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties caused by or relating to a potential recession and other adverse economic conditions (such as heightened inflat ion and interest rates, fluctuations in exchange rates, imposition of and adverse changes to tariffs, duties and other trade protection measures and slower growth), which could adve rse ly impact our revenues, expenses and resulting margins. In addition, certain material factors and assumptions have been applied in making these forward - looking statements, inc luding the assumption that the risks and uncertainties outlined above will not cause actual results or events to differ materially from those described in these forwa rd - looking statements. In addition, Management has also made certain assumptions regarding our 2025 full - year guidance with respect to expectations regarding base performance growth, b usiness performance, currency impact, impacts of inflation, the company's ability to offset the impact of tariffs in 2025 (based on the current tariff policy and the actions the company is taking to manage these measures), adjusted gross margin (non - GAAP), adjusted SG&A expense (non - GAAP) and the Company's ability to continue to manage such expense in the ma nner anticipated, interest expense (which will vary based on, among other things, interest rates and our indebtedness), adjusted tax rate, and full year capex and the ant icipated timing and extent of the Company's R&D expense. In addition, Management has also made certain assumptions regarding our three year financial targets, including thos e a ssumptions set out on Slide 96. References in this presentation to future launch dates refer to the anticipated launch dates for the applicable product, base d o n management's estimates taking into account, among other things, the current stage of the development or regulatory pathway of such products, typical development, regulatory an d l aunch timelines for similar products and assumptions regarding sufficient supply availability for launch purposes. In addition, unless otherwise indicated, references in this pre sen tation to peak sales refer to the potential peak annual sales of the applicable product, franchise or business, based on management's estimates, taking into account, among other thi ngs , sales of similar products, franchises and business. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of these forward - looking statements. These forward - looking statements s peak only as of the date hereof. Bausch + Lomb undertakes no obligation to update any of these forward - looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law. The guidance and financial targets in this presentation are only effective as of the date given, November 13, 2025. Distribut ion or reference of this deck following November 13, 2025 does not constitute the Company updating or affirming such guidance or financial targets . Non - GAAP Information Non - GAAP Information: To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting princi ples (GAAP), the Company uses certain non - GAAP financial measures and ratios, including (i) Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D, (ii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired IPR&D, (iii) EBITDA, (iv) Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations, (v) Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations to Adj. EBITDA (excl. Acq . IPR&D) Conversion, (vi) constant currency (cc) revenue growth, (vii) Net Leverage, (viii) Adjusted Earnings per Share (EPS) Attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (excluding Acquired IPR&D) Growth, (ix) Ad jus ted Tax Rate and (x) Adjusted R&D expense. Management uses some of these non - GAAP measures and ratios as key metrics in the evaluation of Company performance and the conso lidated financial results and, in part, in the determination of cash bonuses for its executive officers. The Company believes these non - GAAP measures and ratios are useful to investors in their assessment of our operating performance and the valuation of the Company. In addition, these non - GAAP measures and ratios, address questions the Company rou tinely receives from analysts and investors and, in order to assure that all investors have access to similar data, the Company has determined that it is appropriate to mak e this data available to all investors. However, these measures and ratios are not prepared in accordance with GAAP nor do they have any standardized meaning under G AAP . In addition, other companies may use similarly titled non - GAAP financial measures and ratios that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures and ratios. Accordingly, our non - GAAP financial measures and ratios may not be comparable to such similarly titled non - GAAP measures and ratios of other companies. We caution i nvestors not to place undue reliance on such non - GAAP measures and ratios, but instead to consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures and ratios. Non - GAAP financial measures and ratios have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a s ubstitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliations of these historic non - GAAP financial measures and ratios to the most directly comparable financial measures and ratios calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in the appendix hereto. However, for outlook purposes, the Company does not provide reconciliations of pr oje cted Constant Currency Revenue Growth to projected GAAP Revenue Growth, projected Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D (non - GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss) , projected Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired IPR&D (non - GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss) margin, projected Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations to projected Cash flow from operations/Cash used in operations (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation, or the components of projected net leverage to their GAA P e quivalents (project net debt to debt and projected Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D (non - GAAP) to projected GAAP net income (loss)), or projected Adjusted EPS Attributable to Bausch + Lomb (excl. Acq . IPR&D) to projected Diluted income per share attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation ("GAAP EPS") in each case, due to the inherent d iff iculty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. These amounts may be material and, therefore, could result in the GAAP m eas ure djusted Earnings per Share (EPS) Attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (excluding Acquired IPR&D) Growth and (iv) Adjusted Tax Rate. Management uses some of these or r ati o being materially different from the projected non - GAAP measure or ratio. For further information on non - GAAP financial measures and ratios, please see the Appendix. Disclaimers

97 Description of Non - GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Co mpa ny uses certain non - GAAP financial measures and ratios. These measures and ratios do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and ot her companies may use similarly titled non - GAAP financial measures and ratios that are calculated differently from the way we calcul ate such measures and ratios. Accordingly, our non - GAAP financial measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar non - GAAP measures and ratios of other companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such non - GAAP measures and ratios, but instead t o consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures and ratios. Non - GAAP financial measures and ratios have limitations as ana lytical tools and should not be considered in isolation. They should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or supe rio r to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA Margin/Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired IPR&D/Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired IPR&D EBITDA (non - GAAP) is Net income (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financi al measure) adjusted for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) is EBITDA (non - GAAP) further adjusted for the items described below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP), along with the GAAP measures used by management, most appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally and sets operational goals and incentives. In particular, the Company believes t hat Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) focuses management on the Company's underlying operational results and business performance. As a result, the Company u ses Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) both to assess the actual financial performance of the Company and to forecast future results as part of its g uidance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) is a useful measure to evaluate current performance. Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) is intended to show our unleveraged, pre - tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors. In additio n, cash bonuses for the Company's executive officers and other key employees are based, in part, on the achievement of certain Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) targets. Adjusted EBITDA margin (non - GAAP) is Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) divided by Revenues. Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) Adjustments Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) is net income (loss) attributable to the Company (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for interest expense, net, (benefit from) provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and the followin g i tems: Asset impairments : The Company has excluded the impact of impairments of finite - lived and indefinite - lived intangible assets as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions and divestiture s. The Company believes that the adjustments of these items correlate with the sustainability of the Company's operating performance. Although the Company ex cludes impairments of intangible assets from measuring the performance of the Company and its business, the Company believes that it is important f or investors to understand that intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Restructuring, integration and transformation costs : The Company has incurred restructuring costs as it implemented certain strategies, which involved, among other things, improvements to its infrastructure and operations, internal reorganizations and impacts from th e d ivestiture of assets and businesses. With regard to infrastructure and operational improvements which the Company has taken to improve efficiencies in th e businesses and facilities, these tend to be costs intended to right size the business or organization that fluctuate significantly between p eri ods in amount, size and timing, depending on the improvement project, reorganization or transaction. Additionally, with the completion of the B+L IPO, as the Co mpany prepares for post - Separation operations, the Company is launching certain transformation initiatives that will result in certain changes to and in vestment in its organizational structure and operations. These transformation initiatives arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations and, as is the case with the Company's restructuring efforts, costs associated with these transformation initiatives are expected to fluctuate between per iod s in amount, size and timing. These out - of - the - ordinary - course charges include third party advisory costs, as well as certain compensation - related cos ts. Investors should understand that the outcome of these transformation initiatives may result in future restructuring actions and certain of the se charges could recur. The Company believes that the adjustments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of th e C ompany's operating performance, allow for a comparison of the financial results to historical operations and forward - looking guidance and, as a res ult, provide useful supplemental information to investors. Acquisition - related costs and adjustments excluding amortization of intangible assets : The Company has excluded the impact of acquisition - related costs and fair value inventory step - up resulting from acquisitions as the amounts and frequency of such costs and adjustments ar e not consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of its acquisitions. In addition, the Company excludes the impact of acquisitio n - r elated contingent consideration non - cash adjustments due to the inherent uncertainty and volatility associated with such amounts based on changes in assumptions with respect to fair value estimates, and the amount and frequency of such adjustments are not consistent and are significantly im pac ted by the timing and size of the Company's acquisitions, as well as the nature of the agreed - upon consideration. Share - based compensation : The Company excludes costs relating to share - based compensation. The Company believes that the exclusion of share - based compensation expense assists investors in the comparisons of operating results to peer companies. Share - based compensation expense can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted. 97 Non - GAAP Appendix

![](ex9902_098.jpg)

98 Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) Adjustments (continued) Separation costs and separation - related costs : The Company has excluded certain costs incurred in connection with activities taken to: (i) separate the Bausch + Lomb business from the remainder of BHC and (ii) register the Bausch + Lomb business as an independent publicly trad ed entity. Separation costs are incremental costs directly related to effectuating the separation of the Bausch + Lomb business from the remainder of BHC an d include, but are not limited to, legal, audit and advisory fees, talent acquisition costs and costs associated with establishing a new board of directors and audit committee. Separation - related costs are incremental costs indirectly related to the separation of the Bausch + Lomb business from the remainder of BHC and include, but are not limited to, IT infrastructure and software licensing costs, rebranding costs and costs associated with facility relocation an d/o r modification. As these costs arise from events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations, the Company believes that the adjustments of these items pr ovide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company's operating performance, allow for a comparison of the financial re sults to historical operations and forward - looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors. Gain (Loss) on extinguishment of debt: The company has excluded gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt as this represents a loss from refinancing our existing debt and is not a reflection of our operations for the period. Further, the amount and frequency of such amounts are no t consistent and are significantly impacted by the timing and size of debt financing transactions and other factors in the debt market that are no t i n management's control. Bausch + Lomb did not have any material losses on extinguishment of debt prior to the second quarter of 2025. Other Non - GAAP adjustments : The Company also excludes certain other amounts, including IT infrastructure investment, litigation and other matters, gain/(loss) on sales of assets and certain other amounts that are the result of other, non - comparable events to measure operatin g performance if and when present in the periods presented. These events arise outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Given the uniqu e n ature of the matters relating to these costs, the Company believes these items are not routine operating expenses. For example, legal settlements and judgment s v ary significantly, in their nature, size and frequency, and, due to this volatility, the Company believes the costs associated with legal settlements and ju dgments are not routine operating expenses. The Company excluded these costs as this event is outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations an d is infrequent in nature. The Company believes that the exclusion of such out - of - the - ordinary - course amounts provides supplemental information to assist i n the comparison of the financial results of the Company from period to period and, therefore, provides useful supplemental information to investors. Ho wever, investors should understand that many of these costs could recur and that companies in our industry often face litigation. Adjusted EBITDA excluding Acquired In - Process Research and Development (IPR&D) is Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) further adjusted to exclude Acquired IPR&D. Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Acquired In - Process Research and Development (IPR&D) is Adjusted EBITDA (non - GAAP) furth er adjusted to exclude Acquired IPR&D divided by Revenues. The IPR&D expenditures represent costs directly resulting from business developme nt transactions and not through the normal course of business. The Company believes that the exclusion of such out - of - the - ordinary - course amounts provi des supplemental information to assist in the comparison of the financial results of the Company from period to period and, therefore, provide s u seful supplemental information to investors in assessing our performance. However, investors should understand that the Company may enter into additional bu sin ess development transactions in the future and, as a result, such acquired IPR&D may recur in the future. Constant Currency Constant currency change or constant currency growth is calculated by adjusting or further adjusting a measure or ratio by ch ang es in or impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Constant currency impact is determined by comparing 2025 amounts adjusted to exclude currency impact , c alculated using 2024 monthly average exchange rates, to the actual 2024 reported amounts. Constant currency revenue is GAAP revenue (its most dire ctl y comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses Constant Currency Revenues (non - GAA P) and Constant Currency Revenue Growth (non - GAAP) to assess performance of its reportable segments, and the Company in total, without the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The Company believes that such measures are u sef ul to investors as they provide a supplemental period - to - period comparison. Although changes in foreign currency exchange rates are part of our business , they are not within management's control. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates, however, can mask positive or negative trends in the underl yin g business performance. Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations/Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations to Adj. EBITDA (excl. Acq . IPR&D) conversion Adjusted cash flow from operations (non - GAAP) is Cash flow from operations/Cash used in operations (loss) attributable to Bausch + Lomb Corporation (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for: (i) payments of legacy legal settlements, net of insurance proceeds, if any (ii) payments for separation costs, IPO costs, separation - related costs, and IPO - related costs (iii) payments for business transformation costs an d (iv) payments for financing fees related to the modification of debt, if any. Management believes that Adjusted cash flow from operations (non - GAAP), along with the GAAP and non - GAAP measures used by management, most appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally. The Company us es Adjusted cash flow from operations (non - GAAP) both to assess the actual financial performance of the Company and to forecast future results as part of its guidance. Management believes Adjusted cash flow from operations (non - GAAP) is a useful measure to evaluate current performance amounts. A s these payments arise from events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations as discussed above, the Company believes that the a dju stments of these items provide supplemental information with regard to the sustainability of the Company's cash from operations, allow for a compari son of the financial results to historical operations and forward - looking guidance and, as a result, provide useful supplemental information to investors. Adjus ted cash flow from operations to Adj. EBITDA (excl. Acq . IPR&D) conversion is Adjusted cash flow from operations divided by Adjusted EBITDA (excluding Acquired IPR&D). Net Leverage Net Leverage is the ratio of net debt (which is calculated as total debt (its GAAP equivalent) less cash and cash equivalents) o ver Adjusted EBITDA (excluding Acquired IPR&D). Management believes that net leverage is an important measure of our overall liquidity position and an indic ato r of our ability to meet financial obligations. Adjusted Tax Rate Adjusted Tax Rate (the most directly comparable financial measure for which is our GAAP tax rate) includes the tax impact of the various non - GAAP adjustments used in calculating our non - GAAP measures. However, due to the differences in the tax treatment of items excluded fr om non - GAAP earnings, our adjusted tax rate will differ from our GAAP tax rate and from our actual tax liabilities. Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS)/Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D Adjusted earnings per share or Adjusted EPS (non - GAAP) is calculated as Diluted income per share attributable to Bausch + Lomb C orporation ("GAAP EPS") (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure), adjusted for the per diluted share impact of each adjustment made to r eco ncile Net income (Loss) attributed to Bausch + Lomb Corporation to Adjusted net income (non - GAAP) as discussed above. Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IP R&D (non - GAAP) is Adjusted EPS (non - GAAP) further adjusted for the per diluted share impact of Acquired IPR&D. Like Adjusted net income (non - GAAP) , Adjusted EPS (non - GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D excludes the impact of certain items that may obscure trends in the Company's un derlying performance on a per share basis. By disclosing these non - GAAP measures, it is management's intention to provide investors with a meaningful , supplemental comparison of the Company's results and trends for the periods presented on a diluted share basis. Accordingly, the Company believes tha t A djusted EPS (non - GAAP) and Adjusted EPS excluding Acquired IPR&D (non - GAAP) are useful to investors in their assessment of the Company's operating perf ormance, the valuation of the Company and an investor's return on investment. It is also noted that, for the periods presented, our GAAP EPS was sig nif icantly lower than our Adjusted EPS (non - GAAP) and Adjusted EPS less Acquired IPR&D (non - GAAP). Adjusted R&D Expense Adjusted R&D expenses (non - GAAP) represents research and development expenses ("R&D expenses") (its most directly comparable GAA P financial measure), adjusted to exclude certain separation - related costs. See the discussion under "Other NonGAAP adjustments" above. Management uses Adjusted R&D (non - GAAP), along with GAAP measures, as a supplemental measure for period - to - period comparison to understand and evaluate e ach segment's ability to control costs. The Company believes that Adjusted R&D (non - GAAP) is useful to investors as it provides consistency an d comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period - to - period comparisons of our R&D expenses, as this measure eliminates the effects o f separation - related costs ,which given their nature and frequency, are outside the ordinary course and relate to unique circumstances. 98 Non - GAAP Appendix
