2. Revenue in the United States represented 56 percent of the company revenue. It decreased 3 percent to $4 billion.

 

3. Non-U.S. developed market revenue was $2.2 billion, a 31 percent of the company's revenue and a 2 percent increase over the same period last year.

 

4. Emerging market revenue was 13 percent of the company's revenue and was flat on a year-over-year basis at $933 million.

6. BMP grew in the mid-single digits on a constant currency, constant weeks basis. In the United States, BMP grew in the high single digits on a constant weeks basis, partially offset by the continued loss of InductOs sales in Europe.
