Kalamazoo, Michigan – July 27, 2017 – Stryker Corporation (NYSE:SYK) reported operating results for the second quarter of 2017:
Second Quarter Highlights
Net sales grew 6.1% to $3.0 billion (6.9% constant currency)
Orthopaedics | 5.5 | % | or | 6.5% constant currency |
MedSurg | 6.2 | % | or | 6.8% constant currency |

Adjusted net earnings per diluted share(1) increased 10.1% to $1.53
Reported net earnings per diluted share increased 3.0% to $1.03
“Our growth momentum continued in the second quarter as we continue to drive share gains through new products and strong commercial execution,” said Kevin A. Lobo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are raising our full year guidance for both organic sales growth and EPS, which reflects our expectations for continued strong performance throughout the year.”
Sales Analysis
Consolidated net sales of $3.0 billion increased 6.1% in the quarter as reported and 6.9% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 0.8%. Excluding the 0.2% impact of acquisitions, net sales in the quarter increased 6.7% in constant currency, including 8.2% from increased unit volume partially offset by 1.5% due to lower prices.
Orthopaedics net sales of $1.1 billion increased 5.5% in the quarter as reported and 6.5% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 1.0%. Excluding the 0.3% impact of acquisitions, net sales in the quarter increased 6.2% in constant currency, including 8.6% from increased unit volume partially offset by 2.4% due to lower prices.
MedSurg net sales of $1.3 billion increased 6.2% in the quarter as reported and 6.8% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 0.6%. Excluding the 0.1% impact of acquisitions, net sales in the quarter increased 6.7% in constant currency, including 7.1% from increased unit volume partially offset by 0.4% due to lower prices.
Neurotechnology and Spine net sales of $0.5 billion increased 6.9% in the quarter as reported and 7.9% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 1.0%. Net sales in the quarter increased 10.0% from increased unit volume partially offset by 2.1% due to lower prices.
Earnings Analysis
Reported net earnings of $391 million increased 2.9% in the quarter. Reported net earnings per diluted share of $1.03 increased 3.0% in the quarter. Reported net earnings include certain charges for the amortization of purchased intangible assets, Rejuvenate and ABG II and other recall matters, restructuring-related activities, legal matters and acquisition and integration related activities. The effect of each of these matters on reported net earnings and net earnings per diluted share appears in the reconciliation of actual results to adjusted results below. Excluding the impact of these charges increases gross profit margin in the quarter from 66.1% to 66.3% and increases operating income margin from 16.6% to 25.0%. Excluding the impact of the items described above, adjusted net earnings(2) of $581 million increased 10.7% in the quarter. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share(1) of $1.53 increased 10.1% in the quarter.
2017 Outlook
We now expect 2017 organic net sales growth to be in the range of 6.5% to 7.0% and adjusted net earnings per diluted share(3) to be in the range of $6.45 to $6.55. For the third quarter we expect adjusted net earnings per diluted share(3) to be in the range of $1.50 to $1.55. If foreign currency exchange rates hold near current levels, we expect net sales in the third quarter and full year to be negatively impacted by approximately 0.5% and adjusted net earnings per diluted share to be negatively impacted by approximately $0.02 in the third quarter and $0.10 in the full year.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including percentage sales growth in constant currency; percentage organic sales growth; adjusted gross profit; cost of sales excluding specified items; adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net earnings; and adjusted net earnings per diluted share. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist shareholders in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. Management believes percentage sales growth in constant currency and the other adjusted measures described above 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 analyzing potential future business trends in connection with our budget process and bases certain management incentive compensation 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 and prior year results at the same foreign currency exchange rate. 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 and prior year results at the same foreign currency exchange rate 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 net earnings per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures below. 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:
