Orthopedic growth slowed in Europe following an economic downturn, but it appears to finally be catching up to the U.K.-based S&N. In the third quarter, the company experienced hip and knee growth both at home and globally.

S&N is also looking to expand outside of hips and knees; its wound-care sales are forecasted to be about 30 percent of its total. Recent partnerships in Brazil and Turkey may also help propel the company in the next five years.
