The Company has subsidiaries in Asia, Central America, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and South America that generate net sales within those respective countries and in some cases the neighboring regions. The Company has joint ventures in Asia that generate net sales from those countries. The Company also has a subsidiary in Switzerland that generates net sales from that country in addition to net sales to distributors located in numerous non-European countries. External net sales are attributable to geographic regions based on the location of each of the Company’s subsidiaries. A subsidiary may earn revenue from external net sales and external royalties, or from inter-subsidiary net sales, royalties, fees and commissions provided in accordance with certain inter-subsidiary agreements. The resulting earnings of each subsidiary in its respective country are recognized under each respective country’s tax code. Inter-subsidiary revenues and expenses subsequently are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are not included as part of the external net sales reported in different geographic areas.
