“We are pleased with our strong third quarter sales growth of 6.8% in constant currency, and 6.1% excluding currency and acquisitions,” stated Kevin A. Lobo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We believe these results not only represent gradual improvement in our key markets but also underscore our commitment to delivering above market growth.

Sales Analysis
Consolidated net sales of $2.2 billion increased 4.8% in the quarter compared to the prior year. Net sales in the quarter grew by 7.1% due to increased unit volume and changes in product mix and 0.7% as a result of acquisitions. Net sales in the quarter were unfavorably impacted by 0.9% due to changes in price and 2.0% due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates on net sales. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, net sales increased 6.1% in constant currency over the prior year.
Reconstructive net sales of $949 million increased 6.5% in the quarter compared to the prior year, as reported, and 9.2% in constant currency. Net sales in the quarter grew by 9.6% due to increased unit volume and changes in product mix and 1.2% as a result of acquisitions. Net sales in the quarter were unfavorably impacted by 1.6% due to changes in price and 2.7% due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates on net sales. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, Reconstructive net sales increased 8.0% in constant currency over the prior year.
MedSurg net sales of $792 million increased 1.5% in the quarter compared to the prior year, as reported, and 2.6% in constant currency. Net sales in the quarter grew by 2.1% due to increased unit volume and changes in product mix and 0.5% due to changes in price. Net sales in the quarter were unfavorably impacted by 1.1% due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates on net sales.
Neurotechnology and Spine net sales of $410 million increased 7.7% in the quarter compared to the prior year, as reported, and 10.0% in constant currency.

Earnings Analysis
Reported net earnings of $103 million decreased 70.8% in the quarter compared to the prior year. Diluted net earnings per share of $0.27 decreased 70.7% in the quarter over the prior year. Reported net earnings in the quarter include charges of $313 million ($245 million net of tax or $0.64 per diluted share) related to the previously disclosed voluntary recall of Rejuvenate and ABG II modular-neck hip stems and the recall of the Neptune Waste Management System. The charges for the Rejuvenate and ABG II recall in the
quarter bring the total charges recorded for this recall to $700 million. Reported net earnings in the quarter also include restructuring and related charges of $15 million ($15 million net of taxes or $0.04 per diluted share), acquisition and integration related charges of $6 million ($3 million net of taxes or $0.01 per diluted share) related to the Neurovascular, Surpass and Trauson acquisitions and the expected acquisition of MAKO Surgical Corp., and additional cost of sales for inventory sold in the quarter that was “stepped up” to fair value for $8 million ($6 million net of taxes or $0.02 per diluted share). These charges reduced the reported gross profit margin from 68.8% to 68.3% and the reported operating income margin from 22.8% to 7.0%.
Excluding the charges described above, adjusted net earnings(2) of $373 million increased 0.8% in the quarter compared to the prior year and adjusted diluted net earnings per share(1) of $0.98 increased 1.0% in the quarter compared to the prior year. Adjusted diluted net earnings per share(1) in the third quarter of 2013 includes approximately $0.03 per diluted share of costs associated with the new Medical Device Excise Tax.
2013 Outlook
Organic sales growth for the full year 2013 is projected to be in the range of 4.5% to 5.5%. If foreign currency exchange rates hold near current levels, net sales in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2013 is expected to be negatively impacted by approximately 1.5% to 2.0%.
Adjusted diluted net earnings per share(1) for the full year 2013 is projected to be in a range of $4.20 to $4.26.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including percentage sales growth in constant currency; percentage organic sales growth; adjusted gross profit; adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net earnings; and adjusted diluted net earnings per share. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist investors and shareholders in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance and are important indicators of our operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for reviewing the operating results of reportable business segments, and for analyzing potential future business trends in connection with our budget process and bases certain annual bonus plans on these non-GAAP financial measures. To measure percentage sales growth in constant currency, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates that affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage sales growth in constant currency is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average foreign currency exchange rates. To measure percentage organic sales growth, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions that affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage organic sales growth is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average foreign currency exchange rates excluding the impact of acquisitions. To measure earnings performance on a consistent and comparable basis, we exclude certain items that affect the comparability of operating results and the trend of earnings. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported sales growth, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income, effective income tax rate, net earnings and diluted net earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The following reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures:
