Question: How to adapt the number format for text in a graph

I've added some text to a graph which consists of text and a value. In this case: "99% Lower Confidence Limit =" and then the value. Right now, the value is shown as 2738435 and I would like to make it 2.7 million or at least 2,738,435. How should I do that? The code that I use is: text(1,1,['99% Lower Confidence Limit =',num2str(value)]);

text(1,1,sprintf('99%% Lower Confidence Limit =%3.2f Million',value/1e6));
