Sales during the fourth quarter of 2009 increased by 8.4 per cent to $5.0 billion (3.09 billion pounds), the firm revealed.
Additionally, organic sales rose by almost three per cent, something it believes was accelerated by higher sales volumes of approximately two per cent, as well as higher net selling prices.

Chairman and chief executive officer of the firm Thomas Falk said that the group's achievements in 2009 were at the "high-end" of its targets for the future.
He furthered: "In 2009, we delivered [an] excellent performance in the near term, while we maintained our strong focus on doing what's right for sustainable, long-term growth."
