FreeStyle Libre, the company’s glucose monitoring (CGM) device used mainly by type 1 diabetes patients, brought in sales of about $1.4 billion in the third quarter, up 30.5%, and accounting for nearly 14% of the company’s revenue.

The company plans to invest 300 million euros ($330.8 million) over the next five years to build a manufacturing site in Ireland, creating up to 1,000 jobs.
