Part I
 
Item 1.   Business
 
Eli Lilly and Company (the “Company” or “Registrant”) was incorporated in 1901 in Indiana to succeed to the drug manufacturing business founded in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1876 by Colonel Eli Lilly. We discover, develop, manufacture, and sell products in one significant business segment—pharmaceutical products. We also have an animal health business segment, whose operations are not material to our financial statements.
 
Our mission is to make medicines that help people live longer, healthier, more active lives. Our strategy is to create value for all our stakeholders by accelerating the flow of innovative new medicines that provide improved outcomes for individual patients. Most of the products we sell today were discovered or developed by our own scientists, and our success depends to a great extent on our ability to continue to discover, develop, and bring to market innovative new medicines.
 
We manufacture and distribute our products through facilities in the United States, Puerto Rico, and 17 other countries. Our products are sold in approximately 128 countries.
