Summary

Summary of the 10-K filed June 28, 2016. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

Medtronic plc's fiscal year 2016 10-K filing highlights a transformative year primarily driven by the $50 billiona acquisition of Covidien plc, which closed in January 2015.
