"We are pleased with our solid third quarter results, with each of our segments contributing to growth," said Vincent A. Forlenza, Chairman, CEO and President. "Our consistent performance demonstrates that our strategy remains sound in this dynamic healthcare environment."
Third Quarter and Nine-Month Fiscal 2014 Operating Results
Reported diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the third quarter were $1.65 compared with $1.47 in the prior-year period, representing a 12.2 percent increase. On a foreign currency-neutral basis, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the third quarter increased by 10.9 percent. Current quarter results include a pre-tax charge within R&D of $9 million, or $0.03 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, relating to program asset write-offs and obligations. Results from the prior-year period included a charge of $22 million, or $0.07 per share from continuing operations, associated with an antitrust class action settlement. Excluding the impact of these items, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.68 compared with $1.54 in the prior-year period. This represents an increase of 9.1 percent, or 7.8 percent on a currency-neutral basis.
For the nine-month period ending June 30, 2014, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $4.47, compared with $4.21 in the prior-year period. This represents growth of 6.2 percent, or 10.0 percent on a currency-neutral basis. Excluding the current quarter charge associated with the R&D program termination and the antitrust class action settlement charge in the prior year's quarter, as well as other items detailed in the accompanying reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the nine-month period ending June 30, 2014 were $4.57 compared with $4.28 in the prior-year period. This represents an increase of 6.8 percent, or 10.5 percent on a currency-neutral basis. Excluding the first quarter incremental impact of the medical device excise tax, which went into effect in January 2013 under the U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $4.62 compared with $4.28 in the prior-year period. This represents growth of 7.9 percent, or 11.7 percent on a currency-neutral basis.

In the BD Medical segment, worldwide revenues for the quarter were $1.201 billion, representing an increase of 5.3 percent compared with the prior-year period, or an increase of 4.7 percent on a foreign currency-neutral basis.
