Results under U.S. GAAP include items as detailed in the schedules attached to this press release.

Net sales decreased 1.3 percent to $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2013. The majority of the decrease was due to the impact of the ship-hold in place on most of the company's infusion devices, the expected year-over-year decline of U.S. sales of the oncolytic docetaxel and the negative impact of foreign currency. Partially offsetting the decrease was strong global Specialty Injectable Pharmaceuticals (SIP) growth, which benefited from supply recovery and improved pricing in the United States.

Adjusted* income from operations increased 6.0 percent to $129 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $122 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase primarily relates to the impact of supply recovery and improved pricing in the company's SIP products, which more than offset the year-over-year increase in selling, general and administration (SG&A) expense. On a GAAP basis, income from operations was $53 million compared to $31 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. The year-over-year change in fourth quarter GAAP income from operations is primarily attributed to restructuring charges in 2012.

The effective tax rate on an adjusted* basis in the quarter was 21.4 percent compared to 16.3 percent in the fourth-quarter 2012. The increase mainly reflects a shift in earnings mix to higher tax-rate jurisdictions relative to the fourth quarter of 2012. On a GAAP basis, the fourth-quarter 2013 effective tax rate was a benefit of 7.6 percent compared to an expense of 137.5 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012. The benefit during the fourth-quarter 2013 primarily results from the impact of quality- and device-related charges incurred in higher tax-rate jurisdictions. The fourth-quarter 2012 effective tax rate on a GAAP basis included a charge related to the effective settlement of a U.S. federal tax audit.

Adjusted* net sales for full-year 2013 (which exclude the impact of customer sales allowances associated with the company's device strategy incurred in the first quarter of 2013) were $4.1 billion, relatively flat compared to full-year net sales in 2012. Strong global sales of SIP products, driven mainly by improved pricing in the United States and supply recovery, were partially offset by the expected decline in U.S. docetaxel sales and the decrease in Medication Management (MM) sales, which was due to the 2013 device ship-hold. On a GAAP basis, net sales for full-year 2013 were $4.0 billion, a decrease of 2.2 percent compared to the previous period. In addition to the factors that affected adjusted* full-year 2013 net sales, GAAP full-year net sales were adversely impacted by the customer sales allowances associated with the device strategy.

Adjusted* income from operations increased 5.0 percent to $478 million for the full year of 2013, compared to $456 million for the full year of 2012. The increase primarily reflects the full-year impact of improved pricing and supply recovery in the company's SIP products, partially offset by higher SG&A expense. On a GAAP basis, full-year 2013 income from operations was $17 million compared to $59 million in 2012. In addition to the higher SG&A expense, full-year 2013 GAAP income from operations was negatively impacted by charges associated with the device strategy, partially offset by a decrease in quality- and product-related charges.

The full-year 2013 effective tax rate on an adjusted* basis was 15.0 percent compared to 18.3 percent in 2012. The full-year 2013 effective tax rate benefited from the retroactive reinstatement in the first quarter of 2013 of certain U.S. tax provisions for 2012 and 2013. On a GAAP basis, the 2013 effective tax rate was a benefit of 79.8 percent compared to a benefit of 121.7 percent in 2012. The tax rates on a GAAP basis benefited in both periods from the impact of quality- and device-related charges incurred in higher tax-rate jurisdictions, partially offset in 2012 by a charge related to the effective settlement of a U.S. federal tax audit.

Cash Flow

Cash flow from operations for full-year 2013 was $317 million, compared to $478 million in 2012. The decrease is primarily due to higher taxes paid and increases in inventory related to supply recovery in 2013.

Capital expenditures were $354 million for full-year 2013 compared to $290 million in 2012. The increase was primarily a result of spending on modernization initiatives at several of the company's manufacturing facilities, as well as on information-technology projects.

2014 Projections

The projection ranges for full-year 2014 net sales and adjusted* diluted earnings per share include, among several factors, assumptions related to the timing of genericization of Precedex(TM) (dexmedetomidine HCl), the company's proprietary pharmaceutical for sedation.

Hospira expects the change to net sales for full-year 2014 to range between negative 2 and positive 3 percent on a constant-currency basis, with a flat to negative 1 percent impact from foreign currency.

Adjusted* diluted earnings per share for 2014 are expected to be in a range of $2.00 to $2.25.

The reconciliation between the projected 2014 adjusted* diluted earnings per share and projected GAAP diluted earnings per share follows:
