WW 4.6%, U.S. 5.9%, Int'l 3.2%

Key drivers of operational performance1

Cardiovascular

Electrophysiology: Increase driven by procedure growth, commercial execution, new product performance (VARIPULSE, TRUPULSE, NUVISION and CRYSTAL), and OUS inventory dynamics, partially offset by competitive pressures in PFA

Abiomed: Double digit growth driven by continued strong adoption of Impella 5.5 and Impella CP

Shockwave: Double digit growth driven by strong adoption of Coronary and Peripheral portfolios and new product launches (JAVELIN & E8)

Surgery

Advanced:

Biosurgery: ~ +5% growth driven by continued strength of the portfolio and commercial execution, partially offset by the impact of the surgery transformation program and VBP in China

Endocutters: ~ -3% due to competitive pressures and VBP in China

Energy: ~ +2% increase driven by new product launches, partially offset by VBP in China

General: Increase primarily due to technology penetration and upgrades within our differentiated Wound Closure portfolio (Barbed & PLUS Sutures) and market expansion, offset by OUS tender timing

Vision

Contact Lenses/Other: Increase driven by strong performance of the ACUVUE OASYS 1-Day family of products and strategic price actions, partially offset by inventory dynamics OUS

Surgical: Growth driven by strength of recent product innovations, robust demand for premium IOLs, and strong commercial execution, partially offset by competitive pressures in the U.S.

Orthopaedics

Growth across all platforms primarily driven by new product launches and strong commercial execution:

Hips: Increase driven by new product launches (EMPHASYS)

Knees: Increase driven by strength of the ATTUNE portfolio, in part driven by pull through related to the VELYS Robotic assisted solutions

Trauma: Growth driven by recently launched products (VOLT)

Spine, Sports & Other: New product innovations (TriAltis) and growth in shoulders, offset by competitive pressures and inventory dynamics
