SEGMENT COMMENTARY:
Consumer
Consumer worldwide operational sales, excluding the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures, grew 1.3%* driven by NEUTROGENA beauty products and over-the-counter products including TYLENOL analgesics, international upper respiratory products and digestive health products, partially offset by lower sales of baby care products due to prior year U.S. re-launch activities.
Pharmaceutical

FULL YEAR 2019 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.
