Research and Markets: Teleflex Medical Device Company Intelligence Report

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/57b1af/teleflex_medical_d) has announced the addition of the "Teleflex Medical Device Company Intelligence Report" report to their offering.

Teleflex is principally a developer, manufacturer and supplier of single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. In addition to its Medical business, the company also has businesses that serve the Aerospace and Commercial markets with speciality engineered products. Its Aerospace products include cargo-handling systems, containers and pallets for commercial air cargo, and military aircraft actuators. The Commercial segment produces driver controls, engine assemblies and drive parts for the marine industry and rigging products and services for commercial industries. This report focuses on the Medical segment of Teleflexs business.

Teleflex was founded in 1943, originally as a manufacturer of precision mechanical push/pull controls for military aircraft. From this original single market, single product orientation, it has grown through an active programme of development of new products, introduction of products into new geographic or end-markets and through acquisitions of companies with related market, technology or industry expertise.

Over the past several years, it has engaged in an extensive acquisition and divestiture programme to improve margins, reduce cyclicality and focus resources on the development of its healthcare business. The company has significantly changed the composition of its portfolio of businesses, expanding its presence in the medical device industry, while divesting several businesses serving the aerospace and industrial markets. The most significant of these transactions occurred in 2007 with the acquisition of Arrow International, a leading global supplier of catheter-based medical technology products used for vascular access and cardiac care, and the divestiture of its automotive and industrial businesses. The acquisition of Arrow significantly expanded Teleflexs disposable medical product offerings for critical care, enhanced the companys global footprint and added to its research and development capabilities. The company now serves hospitals and healthcare providers in more than 140 countries.

In 2009, Teleflex generated consolidated group revenues of US$1,890.1 million. The Medical segment contributed 77% of consolidated revenues and 91% of segment operating profit in 2009. The Aerospace and Commercial segments represented 10% and 13% of consolidated revenues, respectively, and 5% and 4% of segment operating profit, respectively. This company report provides:
