"Our first quarter organic sales growth of 2.4% reflects strong momentum through much of the quarter before experiencing a significant negative impact from the COVID-19 pandemic," said Kevin Lobo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We have taken a number of steps designed to ensure the safety of our employees and customers while continuing to meet the needs of hospitals and caregivers providing essential services. While the fluidity of the current environment makes it difficult to predict our financial performance for the remainder of 2020, given the strength of our balance sheet and cost containment efforts underway, we believe we are well positioned to manage through this unprecedented situation. And as patients who have deferred surgical procedures begin to return over the coming weeks and months, we will work with our customers to help meet the expected demand. On behalf of the Stryker leadership team, I would like to offer my thanks to our thousands of employees around the globe and to the caregivers and first responders for their tremendous efforts in dealing with this health crisis."
Sales Analysis
Consolidated net sales were significantly negatively impacted by the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in lower than previously expected unit volume growth rates across all segments.
Consolidated net sales of $3.6 billion increased 2.0% in the quarter and 2.9% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 2.4% in the quarter including 2.8% from increased unit volume partially offset by 0.4% from lower prices.
Orthopaedics net sales of $1.2 billion decreased 2.1% in the quarter and 1.2% in constant currency. Organic net sales decreased 1.2% in the quarter including 1.5% from lower prices partially offset by 0.3% from increased unit volume.
MedSurg net sales of $1.6 billion increased 6.2% in the quarter and 7.0% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 6.3% in the quarter including 6.0% from increased unit volume and 0.3% from higher prices.
Neurotechnology and Spine net sales of $0.7 billion increased 0.7% in the quarter and 1.5% in constant currency. Organic net sales increased 0.3% in the quarter from increased unit volume.
Earnings Analysis
Earnings were significantly negatively impacted by the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Reported net earnings of $493 million increased 19.7% in the quarter. Reported net earnings per diluted share of $1.30 increased 19.3% in the quarter. Reported gross profit margin and reported operating income margin were 65.0% and 17.7% in the quarter. Adjusted gross profit margin(1) and adjusted operating income margin(1) were 65.3% and 24.0%, a decline of 110 basis points in the quarter. Adjusted net earnings(1) of $699 million decreased 2.1% in the quarter. Adjusted net earnings per diluted share(1) of $1.84 decreased 2.1% in the quarter.
2020 Outlook
The global response to the COVID-19 pandemic has had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant negative impact on Stryker’s operations and financial results. While we reported overall increased unit volume in the quarter, most of our businesses saw dramatic declines in the month of March 2020. Due to the uncertain scope and duration of the pandemic, and uncertain timing of global recovery and economic normalization, we are unable to estimate the overall impacts on our operations and financial results, which could be material. Accordingly, we will not be providing second quarter or full-year organic sales growth or earnings guidance for 2020.
(1) A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures: gross profit margin, operating income and operating income margin, net earnings and net earnings per diluted share, and other important information accompanies this press release.

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; percentage sales growth in constant currency; percentage organic sales growth; adjusted gross profit; adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses; adjusted research, development and engineering expenses; adjusted operating income; adjusted other income (expense), net; adjusted effective income tax rate; adjusted net earnings; and adjusted net earnings per diluted share (Diluted EPS). We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to assist investors and 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 and prior year results at the same foreign currency exchange rate. To measure percentage organic sales growth, we remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions, which 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, research, development and engineering expenses, operating income, other income (expense), net, 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. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding used in the calculation of non-GAAP earnings per share are the same as those used in the calculation of reported earnings per share for the respective period.
