PERFORMANCE BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA
While 3M manages its businesses globally and believes its business segment results are the most relevant measure of
performance, the Company also utilizes geographic area data as a secondary performance measure. Export sales are
generally reported within the geographic area where the final sales to 3M customers are made. A portion of the products
or components sold by 3M’s operations to its customers are exported by these customers to different geographic areas.
As customers move their operations from one geographic area to another, 3M’s results will follow. Thus, net sales in a
particular geographic area are not indicative of end-user consumption in that geographic area. Financial information
related to 3M operations in various geographic areas is provided in Note 16. As discussed in Note 16, during the first
quarter of 2013, 3M realigned its geographic area structure to include Puerto Rico in the United States rather than in the
Latin America/Canada region. Geographic area information presented herein reflects the impact of this change for all
periods presented.
A summary of key information and discussion related to 3M’s geographic areas follow:
