BD Announces Results for Third Fiscal Quarter
FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J., July 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX) today reported record quarterly revenues of $1.868 billion for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008, representing an increase of 14.5 percent over the prior year period. This quarter's revenue growth rate reflects the favorable impact on all segments from foreign currency translation, which overall is estimated to account for nearly 7 percentage points of the increase in quarterly revenues.
"We are pleased that all segments and regions, particularly Europe and Asia, contributed to solid revenue growth," said Edward J. Ludwig, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are also pleased with our operating results, which in part, have enabled us to raise our earnings guidance once again despite continued pressure from increasing raw material costs."
