EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY
"Building on the strong momentum from the first half of the year, we are proud to have delivered another excellent quarter, fueled by our diverse, durable, and science-driven portfolio and our customer obsession that underscore our market leadership, said Kristin Peck, Chief Executive Officer of Zoetis. "We achieved 15% revenue growth in the U.S. and 13% operational revenue growth internationally, with both our companion animal and livestock portfolios seeing impressive global operational growth, 15%
and 11%, respectively. Our track record of above-market growth speaks to our relentless focus on innovation and execution and the dedication and commitment of our colleagues.
QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS
Zoetis organizes and manages its commercial operations across two segments United States (U.S.) and International. Within these segments, the company delivers a diverse portfolio of products for companion animals and livestock, tailored to local trends and customer needs. In the third quarter of 2024
Revenue in the U.S. segment was $1.3 billion, an increase of 15% compared with the third quarter of 2023. Sales of companion animal products increased 18%, driven by the company's monoclonal antibody (mAb) products for osteoarthritis (OA) pain, Librela for dogs and Solensia for cats. Also contributing to growth in the quarter was Simparica Trio , the company's flea, tick and heartworm combination product, as well as the company's key dermatology portfolio, including Apoquel and Cytopoint . Sales of livestock products increased 5% in the quarter. Growth in cattle products was driven primarily by volume, due to improved supply of ceftiofur.
Revenue in the International segment was $1.0 billion, reflecting a 7% increase on a reported basis and an increase of 13% operationally compared with the third quarter of 2023. Sales of companion animal products grew 7% on a reported basis and 11% operationally, driven by Simparica and Simparica Trio, key dermatology products, Apoquel and Cytopoint, and OA pain products, Librela for dogs and Solensia for cats. Sales of livestock products grew 7% on a reported basis and 15% operationally. Growth of the company's cattle and poultry products was driven largely by price increases across the broader international segment, as well as the timing of certain customer purchases. Sales of fish products grew due to increased demand for vaccines in Norway.
INVESTMENTS IN GROWTH
Zoetis continues to advance innovation and care for animals across the globe. Since its last quarterly earnings announcement, the company received approval in China for Apoquel Chewable (oclacitinib chewable tablet) for the control of pruritus associated with allergic dermatitis and control of atopic dermatitis in dogs. Previously approved in the U.S., EU, Mexico, Australia, Canada, Japan and other international markets, Apoquel Chewable is the first and only chewable treatment for the control of allergic itch and inflammation in dogs. Revolution Plus (selamectin sarolaner), a topical combination product that treats ticks, fleas, ear mites, lice and gastrointestinal worms and prevents heartworm
disease in cats, received approval in the EU for an additional claim related to efficacy against notoedres mange. In Australia, Revolution Plus received approval for an additional claim related to flea tapeworm prevention by controlling fleas.
In livestock, the company gained approval in Australia, its third largest market by revenue in 2023, for an additional claim for the use of Valcor (Dectomax V , doramectin and levamisole injection) in sheep, an endectocide to treat and control internal and external parasites in sheep and cattle. Fostera Gold PCV, a vaccine for pigs that offers the longest-lasting combined protection against porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), gained approval in Mexico for a claim related to breeding herd safety. Poulvac Maternavac 4, a vaccine for poultry that provides protection from standard and variant infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), Newcastle disease, infectious bronchitis Mass type, and malabsorption due to Reovirus, also received approval in Mexico. In Canada, Synovex Primer , a new growth-promoting implant, received approval for growing beef steers and heifers fed in confinement and in the backgrounder phase.
In September, Zoetis expanded its India Capability Center in Hyderabad, India. The Center will play a crucial role in driving the company's digital transformation and improving efficiencies to support sustainable growth by insourcing critical technology roles, allowing Zoetis to advance its vision to shape the future of animal care.
Zoetis Completes Sale of Medicated Feed Additive Portfolio to Phibro Animal Health
On Thursday, October 31, Zoetis completed the divestiture of its medicated feed additive (MFA) product portfolio, certain water-soluble products and related assets to Phibro Animal Health. This transaction demonstrates Zoetis' disciplined capital allocation strategy to focus its investments on areas with the highest growth potential that are aligned to its core capabilities, including vaccine, biologic and genetic programs in livestock.
Zoetis is raising its full year 2024 guidance for revenue and adjusted EPS due to the company's strong first three quarters and the underlying strength in companion animal.
Revenue between $9.200 billion to $9.300 billion (operational growth of 10% to 11%)
Reported net income between $2.435 billion to $2.450 billion
Adjusted net income between $2.670 billion to $2.695 billion (operational growth of 13.5% to 14.5%)

(a) Operational results (a non-GAAP financial measure) excludes the impact of foreign exchange.
(b) Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are defined as reported U.S. GAAP net income and its components and reported diluted EPS excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition and divestiture-related costs and certain significant items. Adjusted cost of sales, adjusted SG A expenses, adjusted R D expenses, and adjusted interest expense and other (income) deductions-net are income statement line items prepared on the same basis, and, therefore, components of the overall adjusted income measure. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS.
(c) We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted net income operational results to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP reported financial measure because we are unable to calculate with reasonable certainty the foreign exchange impact of unusual gains and losses, acquisition and divestiture-related expenses, potential future asset impairments and other certain significant items, without unreasonable effort. The foreign exchange impacts of these items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.
(d) Primarily includes certain nonrecurring costs related to acquisitions, divestitures and other charges.
