Net Sales Analysis
Consolidated net sales of $2.7 billion and $9.9 billion increased 3.7% and 2.8% as reported in the quarter and full year and 7.0% in constant currency in both periods, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 3.2% and 4.2%. Excluding the 0.6% and 0.9% impact of acquisitions, net sales increased 6.4% and 6.1% in constant currency including 8.1% and 7.6% from increased unit volumes partially offset by 1.7% and 1.6% in lower prices.
Orthopaedics net sales of $1.1 billion and $4.2 billion increased 3.3% and 1.7% as reported in the quarter and full year and 7.1% and 6.7% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 3.8% and 5.0%. Acquisitions had no impact on net sales in the quarter and 0.5% in the full year. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, net sales increased 7.1% and 6.1% in constant currency including 9.1% and 8.6% from increased unit volumes partially offset by 2.1% and 2.4% in lower prices.
MedSurg net sales of $1.1 billion and $3.9 billion increased 3.0% in both periods and 5.6% and 6.2% in constant currency in the quarter and full year, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 2.6% and 3.2%. Excluding the 1.5% and 1.7% impact of acquisitions, net sales increased 4.2% and 4.5% in constant currency including 5.1% and 4.8% from increased unit volumes partially offset by 0.9% and 0.3% in lower prices.
Neurotechnology and Spine net sales of $483 million and $1.8 billion increased 6.5% and 5.0% as reported in the quarter and full year and 9.9% and 9.5% in constant currency, as foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted net sales by 3.4% and 4.5%. Acquisitions had no impact on net sales in the quarter and 0.1% in the full year. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, net sales increased 9.9% and 9.4% in constant currency including 12.3% and 11.6% from increased unit volumes partially offset by 2.4% and 2.3% in lower prices.
Earnings Analysis
Reported net earnings of $522 million and $1.4 billion increased 100.8% and 179.4% in the quarter and full year. Reported net earnings per diluted share of $1.38 and $3.78 increased 106.0% and 182.1%. Reported net earnings includes charges for the Rejuvenate and ABG II recall, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring-related activities and acquisition and integration related activities. The effect of each of these matters on reported net earnings and net earnings per diluted share appears in the reconciliation of actual results to adjusted results. Excluding the impact of these charges, reported gross profit margin increased in the quarter from 67.0% to 67.1% and for the full year from 66.4% to 66.5% and reported operating income margin increased in the quarter from 23.9% to 27.4% and for the full year from 18.7% to 24.9%.
Excluding the impact of the items described above, adjusted net earnings(2) of $591 million and $1.9 billion increased 7.1% and 7.7%, in the quarter and full year. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share(1) of $1.56 and $5.12 increased 8.3% and 8.2% in the quarter and full year.
2016 Outlook
We expect 2016 constant currency sales growth in the range of 5.0% to 6.0% and adjusted net earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $1.17-$1.22 and $5.50-$5.70 for the first quarter and full year. If foreign currency exchange rates hold near current levels, we expect net sales in the first quarter and full year of 2016 to be negatively impacted by approximately 1.1% and 1.0% and adjusted net earnings per diluted share to be negatively impacted by approximately $0.02-$0.03 and $0.12-$0.13 in the first quarter and full year.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including percentage sales growth in constant currency; percentage organic sales growth; adjusted gross profit; adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net earnings; and adjusted net earnings per diluted share. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist shareholders in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. Management believes percentage sales growth in constant currency and the other adjusted measures described above are important indicators of our operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating results and provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for reviewing the operating results of reportable business segments and analyzing potential future business trends in connection with our budget process and bases certain management incentive compensation on these non-GAAP financial measures.
To measure percentage sales growth in constant currency, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates that affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage sales growth in constant currency is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average foreign currency exchange rates. To measure percentage organic sales growth, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions that affect the comparability and trend of sales. Percentage organic sales growth is calculated by translating current year results at prior year average foreign currency exchange rates excluding the impact of acquisitions. To measure earnings performance on a consistent and comparable basis, we exclude certain items that affect the comparability of operating results and the trend of earnings.
Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported sales growth, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income, effective income tax rate, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The following reconciles the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures:
