The first six months attest to continued strong sales momentum in North America and robust performances in our main strategic businesses. In particular, FilmArray® continued to demonstrate remarkable success by doubling its sales over the period. It once again fulfilled its role as a driver of faster growth for the Group and strengthened its leadership in the syndromic diagnosis of infectious diseases. The period saw signs of a gradual return to more energetic growth in China. As a result, we are confirming the 2015 organic sales growth objective set earlier this year."
