With four primary business segments—Life Sciences, Chemical Analysis, Diagnostics and Genomics, and Electronic Measurement—we have 20,600 employees and serve customers in more than 100 countries. Agilent had revenue of $6.8 billion in fiscal year 2013. The company's stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “A.” During fiscal 2013, we issued four quarterly dividends, one of $0.10 per share and three of $0.12 per share. All decisions regarding the declaration and payment of dividends are at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be evaluated regularly in light of our financial condition, earnings, growth prospects, funding requirements, applicable law, and any other factors that our Board deems relevant.

Agilent sells its products worldwide and is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. We expect that revenue from international operations will continue to represent a large percentage of our total business. In addition, many employees, contract manufacturers, suppliers, job functions, and manufacturing facilities are increasingly located outside the U.S. Agilent articulates a variety of risk factors in its regular 10-K and 10-Q filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

DIRECT ECONOMIC VALUE GENERATED AND DISTRIBUTED, INCLUDING REVENUES, OPERATING COSTS, EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION, DONATIONS AND OTHER COMMUNITY INVESTMENTS, RETAINED EARNINGS, AND PAYMENTS TO CAPITAL PROVIDERS AND GOVERNMENTS
In Agilent's fiscal 2013, annual revenues of $6.8 billion represented a decrease of 1 percent over fiscal 2012. In June 2012, we acquired Dako A/S, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Denmark. Dako provides antibodies, reagents, scientific instruments and software primarily to customers in pathology laboratories and on September 19, 2013, Agilent announced plans to separate into two publicly traded companies, one comprising of the life sciences, diagnostics and chemical analysis businesses that will retain the Agilent name, the other company, Keysight Technologies, will be comprised of the electronic measurement business (“EM”). The separation is expected to be completed early in November 2014.

In addition to the announcement to separate into two companies, we formed a new operating segment in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013. The new life sciences and diagnostics segment was formed by the combination of the life sciences business plus the diagnostics and genomics business. Following this reorganization, Agilent has three business segments comprised of the life sciences and diagnostics business, the chemical analysis business and the electronic measurement business.
