Third Quarter 2024 segment commentary:
Operational sales* reflected below excludes the impact of translational currency.
Innovative Medicine
Innovative Medicine worldwide operational sales grew 6.3%. Growth was driven by DARZALEX (daratumumab), ERLEADA (apalutamide), Other Oncology, and CARVYKTI (ciltacabtagene autoleucel) in Oncology, TREMFYA (guselkumab) in Immunology, SPRAVATO (esketamine) in Neuroscience, and OPSUMIT (macitentan) in Pulmonary Hypertension. Growth was partially offset by STELARA (ustekinumab) and SIMPONI/SIMPONI ARIA (golimumab) in Immunology.
MedTech
MedTech worldwide operational sales grew 6.4%*, with net acquisitions and divestitures positively impacting growth by 2.7%. Operational sales growth was driven primarily by electrophysiology products and Abiomed in Cardiovascular, previously referred to as Interventional Solutions, contact lenses in Vision and wound closure products in General Surgery. Growth was partially offset by endocutter products in Advanced Surgery.
Full-year 2024 guidance:
Johnson & Johnson does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, and purchase accounting fair value adjustments without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Johnson & Johnson’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
Johnson & Johnson is updating its 2024 guidance, including adjusted operational EPS guidance, to reflect improved performance and the impact from the recent acquisition of V-Wave.
