From the Paper:

"Nypro is a leading global manufacturer of customized injection molded plastics with a concentration on primarily three market segments. These segments consist of consumer and industrial sales which constitutes approximately 32% of sales, healthcare products which amounts to approximately 46% of total sales, and communications and electronics which accounts for approximately 21% of total revenues (Voorheis, 1998, p.1). Nypro is a strong performing company with good revenues and a diverse customer base that allows it to avoid over-reliance on a single market segment. However, the data provided seems somewhat confused. The researchers make the comment that Nypro's revenues, in 1995, figured on a per customer average were in excess of $4m (Voorheis, 1998, p.2)."
