What they are doing

New BD after the Feb 2026 Life Sciences spin (Synapsys / BD COR left with Waters — do not score them). Connected Care launched Incada in October 2025 with Pyxis Pro. The Q3 FY2026 release was silent. The call was not: Polen named Incada and said HemoSphere Alta brings advanced AI features, commercially available in the US and Europe. Sales-prep and supply-chain AI on that call are Copilot-class. No intelligence KPI. Pyxis still has an FDA warning letter. Do not score syringe or pump-share volume.

Why the score

  • Reach 2 not 3: Incada plus a thin HemoSphere mention. Still one Connected Care thread.
  • Weight 3 not 4: Incada is sold with Pyxis. Needle in Connected Care, not the whole New BD catalog.
  • Proof 2 not 3: named on the call, available now. No attach, no result on the intelligence.

What would move it next quarter: An Incada or HemoSphere result — attach, usage, or an outcome. Pump share will not move this score.

Evidence

Incada launch (20 Oct 2025)

BD Incada Connected Care Platform: AI-enabled, cloud-based, unifies data from nearly 3 million smart connected BD devices. Launched with next-generation Pyxis Pro.

Q2 FY2026 release

Wellstar partnership: medication management powered by AI. Europe launch of Pyxis Pro and Incada.

Q3 FY2026 release

Revenue $4.98B. First full quarter as New BD. No Incada / AI line in the print — the call is the document.

Q3 FY2026 transcript

Polen: Pyxis Pro plus new AI platform BD Incada. HemoSphere Alta / Acumen IQ Plus: advanced AI features, commercially available US and Europe. Also named supply-chain and sales-prep AI — hygiene.

BDX 10-Q (2026-08-06)

No Incada / HemoSphere language. AI appears as competitive and development risk. Pyxis warning letter: commitments completed; FDA resolution still open. Life Sciences discontinued after Waters.
