Danaher announced that CEO Rainer Blair will retire and that Julie Sawyer Montgomery will begin as CEO on October 1, 2026.
Why this matters
A CEO transition introduces execution and capital-allocation risk while Danaher integrates Masimo and other additions. The successor’s ability to preserve operating discipline and improve margins will influence the durability of cash flow and the valuation multiple.
