A pure pharmaceutical company against pharmaceuticals plus medical devices.

Latest quarter

Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson: latest quarter

Each company's latest reported quarter against the same quarter a year earlier, in its reporting currency. Quarters are the companies' own fiscal quarters. Growth and margins are computed from the reported figures.
