Our success is measured through the returns on investments we deliver to our shareholders. 3 Gathering Momentum South East Asia / South Africa 9% Latin America 31% Central and Eastern Europe 60% Emerging Markets Although our operating philosophy is purposefully international, it is not global. Our Emerging Markets segment includes our historical businesses in Central and Eastern Europe and Latin America, primarily in Mexico and Brazil, with new marketing opportunities recently acquired in South East Asia, South Africa and Russia. Traditionally, most of the larger pharmaceutical companies do not focus on these regions, but at Valeant we believe our investments in these territories will continue to yield high growth through the application of our successful business model. 4 Our progress takes us into select emerging markets throughout the world.
