NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1:1. Basis of Presentation
General
We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) can be condensed or omitted. Balance sheet amounts and operating results for subsidiaries operating outside the U.S. are as of and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended August 28, 200527, 2006 and August 22, 2004. The fiscal first quarter and nine months of 2005 had three additional business days compared to the fiscal first quarter and nine months of 2004.28, 2005.
We made certain reclassifications to the 20042005 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the 20052006 presentation. These reclassifications are primarily related to discontinued operations (see Note 3, Discontinued Operations), as well as to better reflect jurisdictional netting of deferred taxes.
Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year.
We are responsible for the unaudited financial statements included in this document. The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and operating results.
The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Pfizer's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.2005.
Note 2. Acquisitions
On May 16, 2006, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Rinat Neuroscience Corp., a biologics company with several new central-nervous-system product candidates. In connection with the acquisition, as part of our preliminary purchase price allocation, we recorded $478 million, pre-tax, in Share-Based PaymentsMerger-related in-process research and development charges.
On February 28, 2006, we completed the acquisition of the sanofi-aventis worldwide rights, including patent rights and production technology, to manufacture and sell Exubera, an inhaled form of insulin for use in adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and the insulin-production business and facilities located in Frankfurt, Germany, previously jointly owned by Pfizer and sanofi-aventis, for approximately $1.4 billion (including transaction costs). In accordanceconnection with the acquisition, as part of our final purchase price allocation, we recorded an intangible asset for developed technology rights of approximately $1.0 billion, inventory valued at $218 million and goodwill of approximately $166 million, all of which have been allocated to our Pharmaceutical segment. The amortization of the developed technology rights is primarily included in Cost of Sales. Prior to the acquisition, in connection with our collaboration agreement with sanofi-aventis, we recorded a research and development milestone due to us from sanofi-aventis of approximately $118 million ($71 million, after tax) in the first quarter of 2006 in Research and development expenses upon the approval of Exubera in January 2006 by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
On September 14, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Vicuron), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel anti-infectives, for approximately $1.9 billion in cash (including transaction costs). The allocation of the purchase price includes in-process research and development of approximately $1.4 billion, which was expensed and included in Merger-related in-process research and development charges, and goodwill of $243 million, which has been allocated to our Pharmaceutical segment. Neither of these items was deductible for tax purposes.
On April 12, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Idun), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of therapies to control apoptosis, and on August 15, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Bioren Inc. (Bioren), which focuses on technology for optimizing antibodies. The aggregate cost of these and other smaller acquisitions was approximately $340 million for the nine months ended October 2, 2005.
Note 3. Discontinued Operations
We evaluate our businesses and product lines periodically for strategic fit within our operations. As a result of our evaluation, we decided to sell a number of businesses and product lines, certain of which qualified for Discontinued operations treatment:
• | In June 2006, we entered into an agreement to sell our Consumer Healthcare business for approximately $16.6 billion in cash. This business comprises substantially all of our former Consumer Healthcare segment and other associated amounts, such as purchase-accounting impacts and merger-related costs, and restructuring and implementation costs related to our Adapting to Scale (AtS) productivity initiative, previously reported in the Corporate/Other segment. In addition, certain manufacturing facility assets and liabilities, which were previously part of our Pharmaceutical or Corporate/Other segment, are included in the planned sale of the Consumer Healthcare business. In connection with the decision to sell this business, for all periods presented, the operating results associated with this business that will be discontinued have been reclassified into Discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income, and the assets and liabilities associated with this business that will be sold have been reclassified into Assets/Liabilities of discontinued operations and other assets/liabilities held for sale, as appropriate, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The divestiture of the Consumer Healthcare business is expected to close in late 2006 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals. |
• | In the third quarter of 2005, we sold the last of three European generic pharmaceutical businesses, which we had included in our Pharmaceutical segment, for 4.7 million euros (approximately $5.6 million) and recorded a loss of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax) in Gains on sales of discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005. |
• | In the first quarter of 2005, we sold the second of three European generic pharmaceutical businesses, which had been included in our Pharmaceutical segment, for 70 million euros (approximately $93 million) and recorded a gain of $57 million ($36 million, net of tax) in Gains on sales of discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income. In addition, we recorded an impairment charge of $9 million ($6 million, net of tax) related to the last of the three European generic pharmaceutical businesses in Income from discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended October 2, 2005. |
The following amounts, primarily related to our Consumer Healthcare business, have been segregated from continuing operations and included in Discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income:

Note 4. Adoption of New Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, as supplemented by the interpretation provided by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, issued in March 2005. (SFAS 123R replaced SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, issued in 1995.) We have elected the modified prospective application transition method of adoption and, as such, prior-period financial statements have not been restated. Under this method, the fair value of all stock options granted or modified after adoption must be recognized in the consolidated statement of income and total compensation cost related to nonvested awards not yet recognized, determined under the original provisions of SFAS 123, must also be recognized in the consolidated statement of income.
Prior to January 1, 2006, we elect to accountaccounted for our stock-based compensationstock options under Accounting PrinciplesPrinciple Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The, an elective accounting policy permitted by SFAS 123. Under this standard, since the exercise price of our stock options granted equalsis set equal to the market price on the date of grant; as such, there is no recorded compensationthe grant, we did not record any expense related to grantsthe condensed consolidated statement of stock options.
The weighted-average fair value per stock option granted was $5.00 and $6.33 for the three months ended October 2, 2005 and September 26, 2004, and $5.15 and $6.88 for the nine months ended October 2, 2005 and September 26, 2004. We estimated the fair values, as required under GAAP, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, modified for dividends and using the assumptions below. Pro forma compensation expenseincome related to stock options, subjectunless certain original grant date terms were subsequently modified. However, as required, we disclosed, in the Notes to accelerated vesting upon retirement is recognized overCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the period of employment up to the vesting datepro forma expense impact of the grant. In the first quarter of 2005, we changed our method of estimating expected dividend yield from historical patterns of dividend payments to a method that reflects a constant dividend yield during the expected term of the option.

The adoption of SFAS 123R primarily impacted our accounting for the option grants:

Note 2:5. Asset Impairment Charge and Other Costs Associated with the Suspension of Bextra Sales
In the first nine months of 2005, we recorded charges totaling $1.2 billion ($762 million, net of tax) in connection with the decision to suspend sales and marketing of Bextra. This decision resulted from an April 7, 2005 request from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as part of its safety review of all COX-2 medicines.
The pre-tax chargescharge included $1.1 billion related to the impairment of developed technology rights associated with Bextra and $7 million related to the write-off of machinery and equipment, both of which arewere included in Other (income)/deductions - net.In addition, in connection with the suspension, we also recorded $56 million in write-offs of inventory and exit costs, included in Cost of sales; $8 million related to the costscost of administering the suspension of sales, included in Selling, informational and administrative expenses;expenses; and $212 million for an estimate of customer returns, primarily included against Revenues.Revenues. Substantially all of these charges were recorded in the first quarter of 2005.
Note 3: Income Taxes
Income Tax Charge Associated with Repatriation Decision
In the first nine months of 2005, we recorded an income tax charge of $1.7 billion, included in Provision for taxes on income, in connection with our decision to repatriate about $36.7 billion of foreign earnings in accordance with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Jobs Act). In the first quarter of 2005, we recorded an initial estimated income tax charge of $2.2 billion based on the decision to repatriate $28.3 billion of foreign earnings; in the second quarter of 2005, we reduced our original estimate of the tax charge by $863 million and revised the repatriation of foreign earnings to $28.1 billion, principally as a result of guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury in May 2005. In the second quarter of 2005, we also recorded an additional tax charge of $373 million, primarily due to our decision to repatriate an additional $8.6 billion of foreign earnings.
As of October 2, 2005, we intend to continue to permanently reinvest the earnings of our international subsidiaries and, therefore, we have not recorded a U.S. tax provision on the remaining amount of unremitted earnings.
Tax Contingencies
In the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a tax benefit of $586 million primarily related to the resolution of certain tax positions. We believe that the IRS audits of the Pfizer Inc. tax returns for the years 1999-2001 and the Warner-Lambert Company tax returns for the years 1999 through the date of the merger with Pfizer (June 19, 2000) are substantially complete. In connection with those audits, we are currently in the process of appealing one matter related to the tax deductibility of a breakup fee paid by Warner-Lambert Company in 2000.
The IRS has commenced the audit of the Pfizer Inc. tax returns for the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. The 2005 tax year is also currently under audit.
As previously disclosed, with respect to Pharmacia Corporation (formerly known as Monsanto Company), the IRS has completed and closed its income tax return examinations and appeals through 1999 and has commenced the audit of the tax returns for the years 2000 through the date of merger with Pfizer (April 16, 2003).
We periodically reassess the likelihood of assessments resulting from audits of federal, state and foreign income tax filings. We believe that our accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years.
Note 4:6. Adapting to Scale Productivity Initiative
We incurred the following costs in connection with our Adapting to Scale (AtS) productivity initiative, which was announcedlaunched in the second quarter ofearly 2005:

We expect$7 million for the costs associated with this multi-year effort to continue through 2008three months and to total approximately $4 billion to $5 billion, on a pre-tax basis. The actions associated with the AtS initiative will include restructuring charges, such as asset impairments, exit costs and severance costs (including any related impacts to our benefit plans, including settlements and curtailments) and associated implementation costs, such as accelerated depreciation charges, primarily associated with plant network optimization efforts, and expenses associated with system and process standardization and the expansion of shared services.nine months ended October 2, 2005.
Through October 2, 2005,1, 2006, the restructuring charges primarily relate to employee termination costs at our manufacturing facilities in North Americaplant network optimization efforts and the restructuring of our U.S. marketing and worldwide research and development operations, while the implementation costs primarily relate to system and process standardization, and toas well as the expansion of shared services.

Through October 2, 2005,1, 2006, Employee termination costs represent the approved reduction of the workforce by 9225,728 employees, mainly in manufacturing, sales and research. We notified affected individuals and 9035,325 employees were terminated as of October 2, 2005.1, 2006. Employee termination costs are recorded as incurred and include accrued severance benefits, pension and postretirement benefits.

A. Taxes on Income
In the third quarter of 2006, we recorded restructuring costs associateda decrease to the 2005 estimated U.S. tax provision related to the repatriation of foreign earnings, due primarily to the receipt of information that raised our assessment of the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of a certain position and we recognized a tax benefit of $124 million.
On January 23, 2006, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued final regulations on Statutory Mergers and Consolidations, which impacted certain prior-period transactions. In the first quarter of 2006, we recorded a tax benefit of $217 million, reflecting the total impact of these regulations.
In the first nine months of 2005, we recorded an income tax charge of $1.7 billion, included in Provision for taxes on income, in connection with employee terminations and exiting certain activitiesour decision to repatriate about $37 billion of legacy Pharmacia as liabilities assumedforeign earnings in accordance with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Jobs Act).

As of October 1, 2006, we intend to permanently reinvest the earnings of our international subsidiaries and, therefore, we have not recorded as a reduction to goodwill or an expense to operations, as appropriate. Restructuring costs incurred for legacy Pfizer and restructuring costs incurred after April 15, 2004 for legacy Pharmacia are chargedU.S. tax provision on unremitted earnings.

As a result, in the first quarter of 2006 we recorded a tax benefit of approximately $441 million related to the resolution of this issue.
In the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a tax benefit of $586 million primarily related to the resolution of certain tax positions.
The IRS is currently conducting audits of the Pfizer Inc. tax returns for the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. The 2005 and 2006 tax years are also currently under audit under the IRS Compliance Assurance Process, a recently introduced real-time audit process.
With respect to Pharmacia Corporation, the IRS has completed audits of the tax returns for the years 2000 through 2002 and is currently conducting an audit for the 2003 tax year through the date of the merger with Pfizer (April 16, 2003).

Financial Instruments
Note 6: AcquisitionsA. Long-Term Debt
On September 14, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Vicuron), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel anti-infectives, for approximately $1.9 billion in cash (including transaction costs). Vicuron has two products currently under New Drug Application (NDA) review by the FDA: anidulafungin for fungal infections and dalbavancin for Gram-positive infections. The allocation of the purchase price includes in-process research and development of approximately $1.4 billion, which was expensed and included in Merger-related in-process research and development charges, and goodwill of $243 million, which has been allocated to our Human Health segment. Neither of these items is deductible for tax purposes.
On April 12, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Idun), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of therapies to control apoptosis, and on August 15, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Bioren Inc.

On February 10, 2004, we completed the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of Esperion Therapeutics, Inc., (Esperion), a biopharmaceutical company, for $1.3 billion in cash (including transaction costs). The allocation of the purchase price included in-process research and development of $920 million, which was expensed, and goodwill of $235 million, which was allocated to our Human Health segment. Neither of these items was deductible for tax purposes. The aggregate cost of other smaller acquisitions was approximately $170 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2004.
Note 7: Dispositions
We evaluate our businesses and product lines periodically for strategic fit within our operations. In the first quarter of 2004, we decided to sell a number of businesses and product lines and we recorded the results of these operations in Discontinued operations for 2005 and 2004. As of October 2, 2005, all of these discontinued operations have been sold. The impact of these divested businesses and product lines was not material to the consolidated operating results of Pfizer Inc in the periods presented.
Assets held for sale and Liabilities held for sale on the balance sheet at October 2, 2005, relate primarily to assets in Europe that we intend to sell but that are not related to Discontinued operations.

These foreign exchange derivatives serve to protect net income and net investments against the impact of the translation into U.S. dollars of certain foreign exchange denominated transactions. There was no material ineffectiveness in any hedging relationship reported in earnings in the first nine months of 2005.
Long-Term Debt
In July 2005, we decided to exercise Pfizer's option to call, at par-value plus accrued interest, $1 billion of senior unsecured floating-rate notes, which were included in Long-term debt atas of December 31, 2004.2005. Notice to call was given to the Trustees and the notes were redeemed in September 2005.the third quarter of 2006.
On February 22, 2006, we issued the following Japanese yen fixed-rate bonds, to be used for general corporate purposes:
• | $508 million equivalent, senior unsecured notes, due February 2011, which pay interest semi-annually, beginning on August 22, 2006, at a rate of 1.2%; and |
• | $466 million equivalent, senior unsecured notes, due February 2016, which pay interest semi-annually, beginning on August 22, 2006, at a rate of 1.8%. |
The notes were issued under a $5 billion debt shelf registration filed with the SEC in November 2002. As of October 1, 2006, we had the ability to borrow approximately $1 billion by issuing debt securities under that debt shelf registration statement.

In the first nine months of 2006, we acquired the sanofi-aventis worldwide rights, including patent rights and production technology, to manufacture and sell Exubera. In connection with the acquisition, we recorded an intangible asset for developed technology rights of approximately $1.0 billion. The amortization of these developed technology rights are primarily included in Cost of sales.
In the first nine months of 2005, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 billion in Other (income)/deductions - netrelated to the developed technology rights for Bextra, a selective COX-2 inhibitor (included in our Pharmaceutical segment) in connection with the decision to suspend sales of Bextra (see Note 2, 5, Asset Impairment Charge and Other Costs Associated with the Suspension of Bextra Sales) which was included in Other (income)/deductions - netSales).
Amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets that contribute to our ability to sell, manufacture, research, market and distribute our products are included in Amortization of intangible assets as they benefit multiple business functions. Amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets that are associated with a single function are included in Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses or Research and development expenses, as appropriate. Total amortization expense for finite-lived intangible assets was $859$851 million and $856 million for the three months ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005, and September 26, 2004 and $2.6 billion and $2.5 billion for the nine months ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005.

For the first nine months of 2005,2006, we contributed from the Company's general assets $52$450 million to our U.S. qualified pension plans, $301 million to our international pension plans, $124$70 million to our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans, $401 million to our international pension plans and $123$218 million to our postretirement plans. As of October 2, 2005,
During 2006, we expect to contribute, from the Company's general assets, during 2005, a total (inclusiveof $454 million to our U.S. qualified pension plans, $77 million to our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans, $483 million to our international pension plans and $260 million to our postretirement plans. Contributions expected to be made for 2006 are inclusive of amounts contributed during the first nine months of 2005) of $53 million to our U.S. qualified pension plans, $396 million to our international pension plans, $137 million to our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans and $166 million to our postretirement plans.2006. The contributions from the Company's general assets include direct employer benefit payments. Amounts associated with discontinued operations are not significant.
Note 14. Share-Based Payments
Our compensation programs can include share-based payments. In 2006 and 2005, the primary share-based awards and their generalterms and conditions are as follows:
• | Stock options, which entitle the holder to purchase, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock at a price per share set equal to the market price of Pfizer common stock on the date of grant. |
• | Restricted stock units (RSUs), which entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock, including shares resulting from dividend equivalents paid on such RSUs. |
• | Performance share awards (PSAs) and performance-contingent share awards (PCSAs), which entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a number of shares of Pfizer common stock, within a range of shares from zero to a specified maximum, calculated using a non-discretionary formula that measures Pfizer's performance relative to an industry peer group. |
• | Restricted stock grants, which entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock, and which also entitle the holder to receive dividends paid on such grants. |
The Company's shareholders approved the Pfizer Inc. 2004 Stock Plan (the 2004 Plan) at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 22, 2004 and, effective upon that approval, new stock option and other share-based awards may be granted only under the 2004 Plan. The 2004 Plan allows a maximum of 3 million shares to be awarded to any employee per year and 475 million shares in total. RSUs, PSAs, PCSAs and restricted stock grants count as three shares while stock options count as one share under the 2004 Plan toward the maximums.
In the past, we had various employee stock and incentive plans under which stock options and other share-based awards were granted. Stock options and other share-based awards that were granted under prior plans and were outstanding on April 22, 2004 continue in accordance with the terms of the respective plans.
As of October 1, 2006, 313 million shares were available for award, which include 31 million shares available for award under the legacy Pharmacia Long-Term Incentive Plan, that reflect award cancellations returned to the pool of available shares for legacy Pharmacia commitments.
Although not required to do so, historically we have used authorized and unissued shares and, to a lesser extent, shares held in our Employee Benefit Trust to satisfy our obligations under these programs.

Amounts capitalized as part of inventory cost were not significant. In the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006, the impact of modifications under the AtS productivity initiative to share-based awards was not significant and, in the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005, the impact of modifications under the Pharmacia restructuring program was not significant. Generally, these modifications resulted in an acceleration of vesting either in accordance with plan terms or at management's discretion.
B. Stock Options
Stock options, which entitle the holder to purchase, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock at a price per share set equal to the market price of Pfizer common stock on the date of grant, are accounted for at fair value at the date of grant in the income statement beginning in 2006. These fair values are generally amortized on an even basis over the vesting term into Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses and Research and development expenses, as appropriate.
In 2005 and earlier years, stock options were accounted for under APB No. 25 using the intrinsic value method in the income statement and fair value information was disclosed. In these disclosures of fair value, we allocated stock option compensation expense based on the nominal vesting period, rather than the expected time to achieve retirement eligibility. In 2006, we changed our method of allocating stock option compensation expense to a method based on the substantive vesting period for all new awards, while continuing to allocate outstanding nonvested awards not yet recognized as of December 31, 2005 under the nominal vesting period method. Specifically, under this prospective change in accounting policy, compensation expense related to stock options granted prior to 2006 that are subject to accelerated vesting upon retirement eligibility is being recognized over the vesting term of the grant, even though the service period after retirement eligibility is not considered to be a substantive vesting requirement. The impact of this change was not significant.
All employees may receive stock option grants. In virtually all instances, stock options vest after three years of continuous service from the grant date and have a contractual term of ten years; for certain members of management, vesting typically occurs in equal annual installments after three, four and five years from the grant date. In all cases, even for stock options that are subject to accelerated vesting upon voluntary retirement, stock options must be held for at least one year from grant date before any vesting may occur. In the event of a divestiture, options held by employees of the divested business are immediately vested and are exercisable from three months to their remaining term, depending on various conditions.
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the grant date using, for virtually all grants, the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. These fair values incorporate a number of valuation assumptions noted in the following table, shown at their weighted-average values:
Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended | ||||||

(b) | Determined using the extrapolated yield on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues. |
(c) | Determined using implied volatility, after consideration of historical volatility. |
(d) | Determined using historical exercise and post-vesting termination patterns. In the third quarter of 2006, the use of historical patterns was deemed inappropriate as virtually all of the option-grant activity related to a single individual; instead, the contractual term of the options was used. |
In the first quarter of 2006, we changed our method of estimating expected stock price volatility to reflect market-based inputs under emerging stock option valuation considerations. We use the implied volatility in a long-term traded option, after consideration of historical volatility. In 2005, we used an average term structure of volatility quoted to us by financial institutions, after consideration of historical volatility.

C. Restricted Stock Units
RSUs, which entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock, including shares resulting from dividend equivalents paid on such RSUs, are accounted for at fair value at the date of grant. Most RSUs vest in substantially equal portions each year over five years of continuous service; the fair value related to each year's portion is then amortized evenly into Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses and Research and development expenses, as appropriate. For certain members of senior and key management, vesting may occur after three years of continuous service.
The fair value of each RSU grant is estimated on the grant date using the average price of Pfizer common stock on the date of grant.

D. Performance Share Awards (PSAs) and Performance-Contingent Share Awards (PCSAs)
PSAs in 2006 and PCSAs prior to 2006 entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a number of shares of Pfizer common stock, within a specified range of shares, calculated using a non-discretionary formula that measures Pfizer's performance relative to an industry peer group. PSAs are accounted for at fair value at the date of grant in the income statement beginning with grants in 2006. Further, PSAs are generally amortized on an even basis over the vesting term into Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses and Research and development expenses, as appropriate. For grants in 2005 and earlier years, PCSA grants are accounted for using the intrinsic value method in the income statement.
Senior and other key members of management may receive PSA and PCSA grants. In most instances, PSA grants vest after three years and PCSA grants vest after five years of continuous service from the grant date. In certain instances, PCSA grants vest over two to four years of continuous service from the grant date. The vesting terms are equal to the contractual terms.
The 2004 Plan limitations on the maximum amount of share-based awards apply to all awards including PSA and PCSA grants. In 2001, our shareholders approved the 2001 Performance-Contingent Share Award Plan (the 2001 Plan), allowing a maximum of 12.5 million shares to be awarded to all participants. This maximum was applied to awards for performance periods beginning after January 1, 2002 through 2004. The 2004 Plan is the only plan under which share-based awards may be granted in the future.
PSA grants made in 2006 will vest and be paid based on a non-discretionary formula that measures our performance using relative total shareholder return over a performance period relative to an industry peer group. If our minimum performance in the measure is below the threshold level relative to the peer group, then no shares will be paid. PCSA grants made prior to 2006 will vest and be paid based on a non-discretionary formula, which measures our performance using relative total shareholder return and relative change in diluted earnings per common share (EPS) over a performance period relative to an industry peer group. If our minimum performance in the measures is below the threshold level relative to the peer group, then no shares will be paid.
As of January 1, 2006, we measure PSA grants at fair value using the average price of Pfizer common stock on the date of grant times the target number of shares. The target number of shares is determined by reference to the fair value of share-based awards to similar employees in the industry peer group. We measure PCSA grants at intrinsic value whereby the probable award was allocated over the term of the award, then the resultant shares are adjusted to the fair value of our common stock at each accounting period until the date of payment.
The following table summarizes all PSA and PCSA activity during the nine months ended October 1, 2006, with the shares granted representing the maximum award that could be achieved:

Nonvested, October 1, 2006 | 11,729 | 28.07 |
(a) | Forfeited includes 345 thousand shares that were forfeited by retirees. At the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, $9 million in cash was paid to such retirees, which amount was equivalent to the fair value of the forfeited shares prorated for the portion of the performance period that was completed prior to retirement. |

E. Restricted Stock
Restricted stock grants, which entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting term, a specified number of shares of Pfizer common stock, and which also entitle the holder to receive dividends paid on such grants, are accounted for at fair value at the date of grant.
Senior and key members of management received restricted stock awards prior to 2005. In most instances, restricted stock grants vest after three years of continuous service from the grant date. The vesting terms are equal to the contractual terms.
These awards have not been significant.
F. Transition Information

TheseSuch options wereare excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for these periods because their inclusion would have had an antidilutiveanti-dilutive effect.
Also, in the diluted computation, income from continuing operations and net income are reduced by the incremental contribution to the ESOPs, which were acquired as part of our Pharmacia acquisition. This contribution is the after-tax difference between the income that the ESOPs would have received in preferred stock dividends and the dividend on the common shares assumed to have been outstanding.

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Pfizer Inc:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Pfizer Inc and Subsidiary Companies as of October 2, 2005,1, 2006, the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005, and September 26, 2004, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005 and September 26, 2004.2005. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Pfizer Inc and Subsidiary Companies as of December 31, 2004,2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 24, 2005,2006, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004,2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

We have expanded our value proposition to also show that our medicines not only can cure or treat disease, but also can markedly improve healthform the basis for an overall improvement in healthcare systems by reducing overall healthcare costs, improving societies' economic well-being and increasing effective prevention and treatment of disease. We generate revenue throughand by reducing the need for hospitalization. Our revenues are derived from the sale of our products as well as through alliance agreements, by copromotingunder which we co-promote products discovered by other companies.
Acquisitions
On September 14, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Vicuron), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel anti-infectives, for approximately $1.9 billion in cash (including transaction costs). Vicuron has two products currently under New Drug Application (NDA) review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): anidulafungin for fungal infections and dalbavancin for Gram-positive infections. The allocation of the purchase price includes in-process research and development of approximately $1.4 billion, which was expensed and included in Merger-related in-process research and development charges, and goodwill of $243 million, which has been allocated to our Human Health segment. Neither of these items is deductible for tax purposes.
On April 12, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Idun), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of therapies to control apoptosis, and on August 15, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Bioren Inc. (Bioren), which focuses on technology for optimizing antibodies. The aggregate cost of these and other smaller acquisitions was approximately $340 million for the nine months ended October 2, 2005.
On February 10, 2004, we completed the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of Esperion Therapeutics, Inc., (Esperion), a biopharmaceutical company, for $1.3 billion in cash (including transaction costs). The allocation of the purchase price included in-process research and development of $920 million, which was expensed, and goodwill of $235 million, which was allocated to our Human Health segment. Neither of these items was deductible for tax purposes. The aggregate cost of other smaller acquisitions was approximately $170 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2004.
Our Operating Environment and Response to Key Challenges
WeOur company and our industry continue to face a dynamically challenging andnumber of significant challenges, including a rapidly changing environment in our pharmaceutical business, including the loss of exclusivity of major products, continuing pressures on selective COX-2 inhibitor products, the increasing regulatory scrutiny of drug safety, the adoption of new direct-to-consumer advertising guidelines and lower prescription growth rates and increased competition in certain therapeutic areas.
healthcare environment. Our performance in 2005 has been and will continue to be adversely impacted by loss of U.S. exclusivity of four major products -- Diflucan, Neurontin, and Accupril/Accuretic during 2004 and Zithromax in November 2005. In addition, we face the loss of U.S. exclusivity for Zoloft during 2006 and Norvasc and Zyrtec during 2007. These seven products represented 33%several of our Human Healthmajor products, and many of our other products continue to face strong competition, including from generics, in key markets. Nine products, comprising 31% of our Pharmaceutical revenues and 29% of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. Revenues in 2005, have been, or in the near term will be, affected by loss of U.S. exclusivity: Neurontin, Diflucan and Accupril/Accuretic in 2004; Zithromax in November 2005; Zoloft at the end of June 2006; Norvasc and Zyrtec in 2007; and Camptosar and Inspra in 2008. Further, in accordance with requests from applicable regulatory authorities, we suspended sales of Bextra in the U.S., E.U., Canada and many other countries in early 2005.
Industry-wide, regulatory and pricing environments have created added challenges. We are confronted by increasing regulatory scrutiny of drug safety and efficacy; the adoption of new direct-to-consumer advertising guidelines; and lower prescription growth rates. In addition, we have recently seen a strengthening of the U.S. dollar (as of October 19, 2006), as well as restrictive actions on access and pricing taken by influential decision makers in several large European markets.
As a result, at current exchange rates, we now expect revenues in 2007 and 2008 to be comparable to 2006.
Notwithstanding the challenges, we also been,see great opportunities for future growth. There is enormous promise in the science and maytechnology of pharmaceutical research. Further, with an aging population expecting to live longer, healthier lives, we expect that there will be growing demand for our products and services.
We recognize that the world around us is changing dramatically and that we need to accelerate the scope and speed of change to transform Pfizer. Investments in research and development (R&D), enhancements in R&D productivity, focused business development efforts and aggressive cost reductions will continue to be, impacted by publicityhelp us to manage these challenges, to capitalize on the best opportunities presented to us and regulatory actions regarding selective COX-2 inhibitor products (see further discussion into return our company to top-line growth over time.
Our in-line product portfolio and the section "Selected Product Descriptions").potential of our new-product pipeline demonstrate our ability to generate new revenues. Our total revenues decreased 5%increased 9% in the third quarter of 2005three months ended October 1, 2006 and were flatincreased 3% in the first nine months of 2005ended October 1, 2006 as compared to the same periods in 2004.
Partially offsetting these impacts2005, in spite of the first nine monthsfact that the loss of 2005 wasU.S. exclusivity for Accupril/Accuretic, Diflucan, Neurontin, Zithromax and Zoloft and the voluntary withdrawal of Bextra accounted for about a 6% and 5% reduction in those period revenues - - demonstrating the solid aggregate performance in the aggregate of the balance of our broad portfolio of patent-protected medicines. Ourmedicines, a portfolio of medicinesthat includes fivethree of the world's 25 best-sellingbest selling medicines, with 11seven medicines that lead their therapeutic areas. Our results reflect two underlying forces. First, Pfizer marketsImportantly, we have also recognized an aggregate year-over-year increase in revenues from new products launched in 2004, 2005 and within the broadest arrayfirst nine months of in-line2006 of approximately $450 million for the third quarter of 2006 and recently launched products in$1.1 billion for the industry;first nine months of 2006 and second, Pfizer is a business going through a process of reinventing itself. We are addressing the loss of exclusivity of a number of products by advancing a number of internally developed, in-licensed and copromotedco-promoted product candidates. We have launched four new medicines in the U.S. in 2006 --Sutent, Eraxis, Chantix and Exubera. In June 2006, we received an approvable letter from the FDA for Zeven (dalbavancin) and expect approval and launch in 2007. In June 2006, after certain decisions by the FDA, we notified Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. (Neurocrine) that we are returning the development and marketing rights for indiplon to Neurocrine. (See further discussion in the section "Revenues - Pharmaceutical Revenues.")
We believe we have important competitive advantages that will serve us well and distinguish us from others in our industry. Our product portfolio and pipeline demonstrate the benefits of Pfizer's scale and our skill at leveraging the opportunities it provides us. Scale also enhances our status as 'partner of choice' with other companies who have promising product candidates and technologies, as well as giving us influence as a global purchaser of goods and services. We continue to build on and enhance our Research & Developmentresearch and development capabilities through acquisitions and collaborations; and throughcollaborations. Through targeted acquisitions, licensing opportunities and internal development, we are augmenting our commercial portfolio. Given the time requirements attendant to and uncertainties inherent in the research and development process, as well as the commercial risk, the timing and magnitude of revenues from these investments are highly uncertain. (See further discussions in the sections "Revenues - Product Developments" and "Overview of Our Consolidated Operating Results - Licensing and New Business Development - - Strategy and Recent Transactions.")
We have also made progress with our Adapting to Scale productivity initiative, which is a focused,broad-based, company-wide effort to leverage our scale and strength more robustly and increase our productivity. (See further discussion in the section "Overview of Our Consolidated Operating Results - Productivity Initiatives and Merger-Related Synergies.") We now plan to broaden this initiative in 2007 and 2008 in a bold way to transform our cost structure, resulting in, at current exchange rates, the reduction of 2007 operating expenses to a level below that in 2006, as well as a further reduction in 2008 operating expenses. Our goal is to create a more flexible cost structure, so that it will be easier and less disruptive to adjust expenditures in light of changing market conditions and needs. These savings will be over and above the $4 billion currently projected annual cost savings by 2008 for our Adapting to Scale Productivity Initiativeproductivity initiative.
Licensing and Merger-Related Synergies.")New Business Development - Strategy and Recent Transactions
We believeare committed to capitalizing on new growth opportunities by advancing our own new-product pipeline, as well as through licensing, co-promotion agreements and acquisitions. Our business development strategy targets a number of growth opportunities, including biologics, oncology, Alzheimer's disease, vaccines and other products and services that seek to provide innovative healthcare solutions.
On August 14, 2006, we entered into a license agreement with Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation to acquire exclusive worldwide rights to DGAT-1 inhibitors, an innovative class of compounds that modify lipid metabolism. The lead compound in the class, BAY 74-4113, is a potential treatment for obesity, type 2 diabetes and other related disorders. In June 2006, we acquired the worldwide rights to fesoterodine, a new drug candidate for treating overactive bladder, from Schwarz Pharma AG. In March 2006, we entered into research collaborations with NicOX SA in ophthalmic disorders and NOXXON Pharma AG in obesity. In addition, in November 2005, we entered into a research collaboration with Incyte for CCR2 antagonists for use in a broad range of diseases.
On May 16, 2006, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Rinat Neuroscience Corp. (Rinat), a biologics company with several new central-nervous-system product candidates. In connection with the acquisition, as part of our preliminary purchase price allocation, we recorded $478 million, pre-tax, in Merger-related in-process research and development charges.
On February 28, 2006, we completed the acquisition of the sanofi-aventis worldwide rights, including patent rights and production technology, to manufacture and sell Exubera, an inhaled form of insulin for use in adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and the insulin-production business and facilities located in Frankfurt, Germany, previously jointly owned by Pfizer and sanofi-aventis, for approximately $1.4 billion (including transaction costs). In connection with the acquisition, as part of our final purchase price allocation, we recorded an intangible asset for developed technology rights of approximately $1.0 billion, inventory valued at $218 million and goodwill of approximately $166 million, all of which have been allocated to our Pharmaceutical segment. The amortization of the developed technology rights is primarily included in Cost of Sales. Prior to the acquisition, in connection with our collaboration agreement with sanofi-aventis, we recorded a research and development milestone due to us from sanofi-aventis of approximately $118 million ($71 million, after tax) in the first quarter of 2006 in Research and development expenses upon the approval of Exubera in January 2006 by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
On September 14, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Vicuron), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel anti-infectives, for approximately $1.9 billion in cash (including transaction costs). The allocation of the purchase price includes in-process research and development of approximately $1.4 billion, which was expensed and included in Merger-related in-process research and development charges, and goodwill of $243 million, which has been allocated to our Pharmaceutical segment. Neither of these items was deductible for tax purposes.
On April 12, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Idun), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of therapies to control apoptosis, and on August 15, 2005, we completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of Bioren Inc. (Bioren), which focuses on technology for optimizing antibodies. The aggregate cost of these and other smaller acquisitions was approximately $340 million for the nine months ended October 2, 2005.
Although not yet reflected in these financial statements, as the transactions have not yet been finalized, on September 18, 2006, we entered into a license agreement with TransTech Pharma Inc. to develop and commercialize small- and large- molecule compounds for treatment of Alzheimer's disease and diabetes, and on September 26, 2006, we entered into a license agreement with Quark Biotech Inc. for exclusive worldwide rights to its novel human gene and to molecules for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). In addition, on October 6, 2006, we entered into an agreement to acquire PowderMed Ltd., a U.K. company specializing in the emerging science of DNA-based vaccines for the treatment of influenza and chronic viral diseases.
Discontinued Operations
We evaluate our businesses and product lines periodically for strategic fit within our operations. We sold or are in the process of selling the following businesses that do not fit our strategic and operating flexibility allows us to marshal and focus resources when and where they are needed, to change with a changing environment and to recognize and seize emerging opportunities.goals:
• | In June 2006, we entered into an agreement to sell our Consumer Healthcare business to Johnson & Johnson for approximately $16.6 billion in cash. This business comprises substantially all of our former Consumer Healthcare segment and other associated amounts, such as purchase-accounting impacts and merger-related costs, and restructuring and implementation costs related to our Adapting to Scale (AtS) productivity initiative, previously reported in the Corporate/Other segment. In addition, certain manufacturing facility assets and liabilities, which were previously part of our Pharmaceutical or Corporate/Other segment, are included in the planned sale of the Consumer Healthcare business. In connection with the decision to sell this business, for all periods presented, the operating results associated with this business that will be discontinued have been reclassified into Discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income, and the assets and liabilities associated with this business that will be sold have been reclassified into Assets/Liabilities of discontinued operations and other assets/liabilities held for sale, as appropriate, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The divestiture of the Consumer Healthcare business is expected to close in late 2006 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals. |
• | In the third quarter of 2005, we sold the last of three European generic pharmaceutical businesses, which we had included in our Pharmaceutical segment, for 4.7 million euros (approximately $5.6 million) and recorded a loss of $3 million ($2 million, net of tax) in Gains on sales of discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005. |
• | In the first quarter of 2005, we sold the second of three European generic pharmaceutical businesses which had been included in our Pharmaceutical segment for 70 million euros (approximately $93 million) and recorded a gain of $57 million ($36 million, net of tax) in Gains on sales of discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income. In addition, we recorded an impairment charge of $9 million ($6 million, net of tax) related to the last of the three European generic pharmaceutical businesses in Income from discontinued operations - net of tax in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended October 2, 2005. |
Adapting to Scale Productivity InitiativeInitiatives and Merger-Related Synergies
During 2005 and the second and third quartersfirst nine months of 2005,2006, we made progress with our multi-year productivity initiative, called Adapting to Scale (AtS), designed to increase efficiency and streamline decision making across the Company. This initiative, first announcedlaunched in Aprilearly 2005, follows the integration of Warner-Lambert and Pharmacia Corporation (Pharmacia), which resulted in the tripling of Pfizer's revenues over the past five years. The integration of those two companies will result in a combined annual expense reduction of approximately $6 billion, inclusive of $4.2 billion in Pharmacia-related synergies that will be achieved this year. The new AtS productivity initiative is expected to yield $4 billion in cost savings on an annual basis by 2008, based on a top-to-bottom business review completed during the first half of 2005.billion.
During 2005, we anticipateWe now expect that cost savings from our AtS productivity initiative will exceed $600 million, greater than previously forecasted, mainly attributable to the Human Health business. We expect that annual cost savings will accelerate over the following three years, withbe about $2.5 billion in 2006, substantially ahead of our original guidance of about $2 billion in savings targeted for 2006, about $3.5 billion in 2007 and, without giving effect to any additional initiatives to transform our cost structure, growing to about $4 billion annually upon completion in 2008.2008, notwithstanding the planned divestiture of our Consumer Healthcare business and the expense reductions associated with that business. These savings are expected to be realized in procurement, operating expenses and facilities, among other sources. We planSavings realized during the third quarter and first nine months of 2006 total approximately $600 million and $1.8 billion. Without giving effect to useany additional initiatives to transform our cost structure, the cost savings we generate, in part,Company continues to fund key investments, including new product launches and the development of the many promising new medicines in our pipeline. The Company expectsexpect that the aggregate cost of implementing thisthe AtS productivity initiative through 2008 will be approximately $4 billion to $5 billion on a pre-tax basis.
While some projects are already underway, during the fourth quarterProjects in various stages of 2005, we will continue to accelerate the implementation of changes, including:include:
• | Reorganizing Pfizer Global Research & Development (PGRD) to increase efficiency and effectiveness in bringing new therapies to |
| |
• | Enhanced Clinical Trial Design is a key Pfizer initiative aimed at reducing the frequency and cost of clinical trial failures, which is a common issue across the industry. The standardization and broad application of advanced improvements in quantitative techniques, such as pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling and computer-based clinical trial simulation, along with use of leading edge statistical techniques including adaptive learning and confirming approaches, have transformed the way we design clinical trials today. Benefits achieved include improvements in positive predictive capacity, efficiency, risk management and knowledge management. Once fully implemented, the Enhanced Clinical Trial Design initiative is expected to yield significant savings and enhance research productivity. |
• | Standardization of practices across Research and Development is driving costs down and increasing efficiencies in our research facilities, resulting in significant savings. Centers of emphasis have been built to take advantage of special skill sets, reduce waste and enhance asset utilization. We substantially reduced the number of pilot plants which manufacture the active ingredients for our clinical supplies, making more efficient use of the capacity retained. Clinical supply depots across the globe are being realigned with future needs. For example, across Europe and Canada 26 out of 37 depots have been identified for rationalization, with 15 closures completed through October 1, 2006. A wide range of continuous improvement practices is being applied to enable further productivity improvements in all areas of R&D. |

Given the challenging operating environment, we plan to expand our AtS initiative by undertaking a further transformation of how we invest in our business and manage our costs. As a result of additional initiatives to transform our cost structure, at current exchange rates, we will reduce 2007 operating expenses to a level below that in 2006, and further reduce 2008 operating expenses. Our goal is to create a more flexible cost structure, so that it will be easier and less disruptive to adjust expenditures in consideration of changing market conditions and needs. Specific goals and actions are under development.

Pharmaceutical Revenues
Pfizer's pharmaceutical business continued to show solid performance, with our in-line products in the third quarteraggregate performing well in a tough operating environment and were flat in the first nine monthsmany of 2005,our new products making important contributions as compared to the same periods in 2004. Thewell, partially offset by revenue decrease reflectsdeclines from the loss of exclusivity of keyon major products and regulatory actions on the selective COX-2 inhibitors and other nonspecific non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) products, which has resulted in a significant decline in prescription volume in the arthritis market. The decrease also reflects lower prescription growth and increased competition in key markets in the U.S., such as the lipid-lowering market, where the rate of growth in the third quarter declined significantly versus the first half of the year; and the erectile-dysfunction market, which has been in decline compared to 2004. In addition, although we anticipate a positive long-term impact of our initiative designed to increase the efficiency of our U.S. Human Health field force through stronger alignment with our customers (completed in September 2005), the short-term impact was a tempering of revenue performance in the third quarter. Partially offsetting these impacts in the first nine months of 2005 was the solid performance in the aggregate of the balance of our broad portfolio of patent-protected medicines.factors.
Changes in foreign exchange rates increasedWorldwide pharmaceutical revenues in the third quarter of 2005 by $175 million, or 1.4%, and increased revenues in the first nine months of 2005 by $909 million, or 2.4%, compared to the same periods in 2004. The foreign exchange impact onfor the third quarter and first nine months of 2005 revenue comparisons2006 were $11.5 billion, an increase of 9%, and $33.4 billion, an increase of 2%, compared to the same periods in 2004 was2005, due primarily to:
• | the solid aggregate performance of our broad portfolio of patent-protected medicines; |
• | an aggregate year-over-year increase in revenues from new products launched in 2004, 2005 and within the first nine months of 2006 of approximately $450 million for the third quarter of 2006 and $1.1 billion for the first nine months of 2006; |
• | the one-time reversal of a sales deduction accrual related to a favorable development in a pricing dispute in the U.S. of about $170 million; |
• | higher U.S. wholesaler inventories in the third quarter of 2006 by about two days compared to the end of the second quarter of 2006, with levels at the end of the third quarter of 2006 at normal levels and comparable to those at the end of the third quarter of 2005; and |
• | the favorable impact of changes in the mix of sales rebates in the U.S., |
partially offset by: | |
• | a decrease in revenue for Zoloft, primarily due to the launch of generic competition in mid-July 2006 after Zoloft lost exclusivity in the U.S. in June 2006 and also due to the earlier loss of exclusivity in many European markets, by $348 million for the third quarter of 2006 and $504 million for the first nine months of 2006; |
• | a decrease in revenue from the loss of exclusivity of Zithromax in November 2005 of $302 million for the third quarter of 2006 and $1.1 billion for the first nine months of 2006; and |
• | the continued decline in revenue by $39 million for the third quarter of 2006 and $218 million for the first nine months of 2006 of Neurontin, Diflucan and Accupril/Accuretic, which lost U.S. exclusivity in 2004. |
Pharmaceutical revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2006, were also impacted by the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to many foreign currencies, especially the euro. We expect 2005euro, which increased revenue by $118 million, while Pharmaceutical revenues for the full year, at current foreign exchange rates, to evidence a modest declinenine months ended October 1, 2006, were impacted by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to 2004, although a somewhat largermany foreign currencies, especially the euro and the Japanese yen, which decreased revenue by $443 million. Finally, the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006 were also impacted by increased competition and the overall market decline, than previously anticipated, reflecting lower U.S. Human Health revenues.
The impact of price changes on revenues was 3.2%as branded prescriptions in the third quarter of 2005U.S. declined 4% and 2.8% in3% compared to the firstthree months and nine months ofended October 2, 2005.
The loss of patent protection with respect to any of our major products could have a material adverse effect on revenue and net income. We expect a substantial impact from the loss of exclusivity of certain major products over the next few years.Geographically:
• | in the U.S., Pharmaceutical revenues increased 14% and 7% in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006 compared to the same periods in 2005, primarily due to revenues from new products, as well as growth in Lipitor and Celebrex sales, the one-time reversal of a sales deduction accrual related to a favorable development in a pricing dispute and higher U.S. wholesaler inventories in the third quarter of 2006 by about two days compared to the end of the second quarter of 2006, partially offset by the loss of exclusivity of Zithromax in November 2005 and Zoloft in June 2006; and |
• | in our international markets, Pharmaceutical revenues increased 3% in the three months ended October 1, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005, primarily due to revenues from our new products, as well as growth in Lipitor and Celebrex sales, and the favorable impact of foreign exchange on revenue of $107 million (1%), partially offset by lower revenues from Zoloft due to the loss of exclusivity in many key international markets. Our international Pharmaceutical revenues decreased 3% in the nine months ended October 1, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005, primarily due to the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange on revenue of $422 million (1%) and lower revenues from Zoloft due to the loss of exclusivity in many key international markets. |
Deductions from Revenues
As is typical in the pharmaceutical industry, our gross product sales are subject to a variety of deductions, primarily representing rebates and discounts to government agencies, wholesalers and managed care organizations.organizations with respect to our pharmaceutical products. These deductions represent estimates of the related liabilitiesobligations and, as such, judgment is required when estimating the impact of these sales deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. In the third quarter of 2006, we recorded a reversal of a sales deduction accrual related to a favorable development in a pricing dispute in the U.S. of about $170 million. Historically, our adjustments to actual have not been material; on a quarterly basis, not including the adjustment mentioned above, they generally have been less than 0.5%1% of Human HealthPharmaceutical net sales and can result in either a net increase or a net decrease to income.
Rebates under Medicaid and related state programs reduced revenues by $40 million and $414 million in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006 and $257 million and $956 million in the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005. Rebates under Medicare reduced revenues by $253 million and $436 million for the three months and nine months ended October 2, 20051, 2006 and $338$23 million and $1.0 billion for the three months and nine months ended September 26, 2004. Performance-based contracts also provide for rebates to several customers. Contract rebates reduced revenues by $513$37 million and $1.7 billion forin the three months and nine months ended October 2, 20052005. The decrease in Medicaid and $501related state program rebates and the increase in Medicare rebates are due primarily to the impact of the Medicare Act, effective January 1, 2006. Performance-based contract rebates reduced revenues by $393 million and $1.5$1.3 billion forin the three months and nine months ended September 26, 2004.October 1, 2006 and $482 million and $1.6 billion in the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005. The decrease in performance-based contract rebates is due primarily to the expiration of our contract with Express Scripts Inc. on December 31, 2005 and reduced managed care rebates related to Zithromax, which lost exclusivity in the U.S in November 2005. These contracts are with managed care customers, including health maintenance organizations and pharmacy benefit managers, who receive rebates based on the achievement of contracted performance terms for products. Rebates are product-specific and, therefore, for any given year are impacted by the mix of products sold. Chargebacks (primarily discountsreimbursements to federal government agencies)wholesalers for honoring contracted prices to third parties) reduced revenues by $382 million and $1.1 billion in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006 and $324 million and $916 million forin the three months and nine months ended October 2, 2005 and $290 million and $864 million for the three months and nine months ended September 26, 2004.2005.
Our accruals for Medicaid rebates, Medicare rebates, contract rebates and chargebacks totaled $1.7$1.5 billion atas of October 2, 2005 and1, 2006, a decrease from $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2004.2005, due primarily to the impact of the Medicare Act.

Human Health
Pfizer's Human Health business continued to show solid performance in many of our products, although challenges to revenue more than offset that performance.
Pfizer's Human Health worldwide revenues declined 7% in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2004 and 1% year-to-date. In the U.S., Human Health revenues declined 15% in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2004 and 9% year-to-date. The loss of exclusivity on key products (primarily Neurontin) has resulted in a decline in third-quarter worldwide revenues of approximately $800 million and year-to-date worldwide revenues of approximately $2.4 billion in comparison to the same periods in the prior year. The regulatory actions relating to Celebrex and the suspension of sales of Bextra have contributed to an additional decline in third-quarter 2005 selective COX-2 inhibitor worldwide revenues of $754 million (down 67%) and year-to-date selective COX-2 inhibitor worldwide revenues of $2.0 billion (down 62%) in comparison to the same periods in the prior year.
The third quarter of 2005 was also impacted by the overall market decline for branded prescriptions in the U.S. Branded prescriptions in the U.S. declined 3% in the third quarter of 2005 relative to the third quarter of 2004. The third quarter of 2005 also exhibited a significant change in growth trends relative to the first half of the year in a number of U.S. therapeutic markets. Examples include the branded statins market, where total prescriptions grew 7% in the third quarter versus 10% in the first half of 2005, and the erectile-dysfunction market, with total prescriptions declining 7% in the third quarter versus zero growth in the first half of 2005.

Millions of people with diabetes are not achieving or maintaining acceptable blood sugar levels, despite the availability of current therapies. Exubera represents a medical advance that offers patients a novel method of introducing insulin into their systems through the lungs. Since May 2006, Exubera has been launched in Germany, Ireland, the U.K. and most recently, the U.S., where the Joslin Diabetes Clinic in Boston, widely recognized as one of the pre-eminent diabetes and research organizations in the world, has recognized Exubera in its diabetes treatment guidelines. Within the U.S., a comprehensive education and training program for physicians is underway. To further support patients and healthcare professionals, Pfizer also provides a 24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week call center staffed by healthcare professionals. Similar programs are also in place in European markets where the product has been launched. An expanded roll-out of Exubera to primary-care physicians in the U.S. previously targeted for November 2006, will begin in January 2007. The manufacturing process for Exubera is complex, involving novel technology. We are working at capacity to meet expected demand, while also expanding drug product capacity. Initial supplies of Exubera were available across the U.S. beginning in September 2006. |

The increase in Animal Health revenues in the third quarterthree months and first nine months of 2005,ended October 1, 2006, as compared to the same periods in 2004,2005, was primarily attributable to:
• |
|
| |
• |
|
| the favorable impact of the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to many foreign |
partially offset by: | |
• | a decline in U.S. Rimadyl revenues in the first half of 2006 due to lower-than-anticipated NSAID market growth and intense branded competition, as well as increased generic competition in the European companion animal market; and |
• | the unfavorable impact of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to many foreign currencies for the first nine months of 2006. |
COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales grew 16% in the third quarter of 2005 and 19% for the first nine months of 2005, and increased as a percentage of revenues, as compared with the prior year periods. The increases reflect unfavorable geographic, segment and product mix, and adverse changes in production volume, among other factors. In the first quarter of 2005, we also recorded charges for write-offs of inventory and exit costs related to the suspension of Bextra sales (see Note 2, Asset Impairment Charge and Other Costs Associated with the Suspension of Bextra Sales).
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues will remain under pressure throughout the remainder of 2005.
Selling, Informational and Administrative Expenses
Selling, informational and administrative expenses decreased 3% in the third quarter and were flat in the first nine months of 2005, as compared to the same periods in 2004, reflecting an increase in merger-related synergies, and the impact of the Company's AtS productivity initiative, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased 6% in the third quarter and increased 1% in the first nine months of 2005, as compared to the same periods in 2004. The decline in the third quarter of 2005 reflects the initial benefits associated with the AtS productivity initiative and changes in year-over-year timing of various expenses.
Product Developments
We continue to invest in R&D to provide future sources of revenue through the development of new products, as well as through additional uses for existing in-line and alliance products. We have a broad and deep pipeline of medicines in development. However, there are no assurances as to when, or if, we will receive regulatory approval for additional indications for existing products or any of our other products in development.

In September 2005, weWe received "not-approvable" letters from the FDA for Oporia for the prevention of post-menopausal osteoporosis in September 2005 and for the treatment of vaginal atrophy in January 2006. We are currently in discussions with the FDA regarding these letters, and we continue to develop Oporia. In March 2006, we received a "not-approvable" letter for Fragmin for use in oncology patients, and we are currently in discussions with the FDA regarding this letter as well. In September 2006, an FDA advisory committee recommended that the FDA approve Fragmin for the prevention of blood clots in oncology patients. In September 2005, we received a "not-approvable" letter for Dynastat (parecoxib), an injectable prodrug for valdecoxib for the treatment of acute pain. PfizerWe have had discussions with the FDA regarding this letter, and we are developing plans to discuss these "not-approvable" letters withaddress the FDA.FDA's concerns.
In September 2005, an FDA advisory committee recommended thatJune 2006, after certain decisions by the FDA, approvewe notified Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.

In October 2005,June 2006, the FDA extended the review period for Exubera to study more data on the diabetes treatment.
An NDA for Sutent, a novel multi-targeted oral compound for treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) and malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), was submitted to the FDA on August 10, 2005. The FDA has accepted this submission and granted Sutent priority-review status for this important cancer therapy. Priority designation allows for an expedited review of the NDA filing and is intended for product candidates that may provide a significant improvement compared to marketed products. An MAA for Sutent was also submitted to European regulatory authorities during the quarter.
On September 14, 2005, Pfizer completed the acquisition of Vicuron. Anidulafungin, one of the key products acquired in the Vicuron acquisition, is a novel, broad-spectrum antifungal agent of the echinocandin class that is currently under review by the FDA. The filing for the treatment of candidemia/invasive candidiasis has been granted priority-review status. In a Phase 3 trial, anidulafungin demonstrated clinical efficacy greater than fluconazole, including disease due to Candida glabrata, with a comparable safety profile in the treatment of candidemia/invasive candidiasis. Pfizer is currently assessing the potential of anidulafungin in treating additional patient populations.
The FDA has designated as approvable the NDA for DalbavancinZeven, a new injectable antibiotic to treat Gram-positive infections, which was also acquired in the Vicuron acquisition. (dalbavancin). We now anticipate a rapid and successful resolution of outstanding issues to allow final NDAFDA approval and launch in the coming months.

In September and October of 2005, the CHMP of the European Medicines Evaluation Agency issued positive opinions recommending that marketing authorizations be granted by the European Commission for Macugen and Exubera, respectively. The European Commission is not obligated to follow the opinions of the CHMP. The European Commission is expected to act upon the CHMP recommendations for Macugen by the end of 2005 and Exubera in early 2006.
(a) | On July 27, 2006, Sutent received conditional marketing authorization from the European Commission for mRCC, after failure of interferon alfa or interleukin-2 therapy, and unresectable and/or metastatic malignant GIST, after failure of imatinib due to resistance or intolerance. This was the first time the European Commission granted a new oncology drug conditional marketing authorization in the European Union. Final approval is contingent on the provision of comprehensive data on Sutent's effect in terms of relevant clinical endpoints, such as progression-free survival in patients with mRCC. In October 2006, following evaluation of clinical data submitted by Pfizer, the CHMP recommended a switch from the conditional marketing authorization to a full marketing authorization. It also recommended to extend the indication to first-line treatment of mRCC. |

Drug candidates in late-stage development include varenicline, a nicotine-receptor partial agonist for smoking cessation, which has concluded Phase 3 trials; maraviroc (UK-427,857), a CCR-5 receptor antagonist for HIV; torcetrapib/atorvastatin, a combination CETP inhibitor/statin for heart disease; asenapine, for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, under co-development with Akzo Nobel's Organon healthcare unit; and Zithromax/chloroquine for treatment of malaria. The Company anticipates filingmalaria; PF-3512676, a toll-like receptor 9 agonist for non-small cell lung cancer developed in partnership with Coley Pharmaceutical Group, Inc.; and CP-675,206, an NDA with the FDAanti-CTLA4 monoclonal antibody for varenicline by the end of 2005.melanoma. The FDA has granted fast-track designation for maraviroc's clinical development program. Based on the mixed study results to date for asenapine for the treatment of schizophrenia, Pfizer does not believe that an NDA filing with the FDA will be made in 2007. Following receipt of the data from the final Phase 3 study for schizophrenia, Pfizer will discuss the complete Phase 3 data set with Organon, and an announcement will be made concerning the next steps for asenapine.
Torcetrapib/atorvastatin, which combines the new chemical entity torcetrapib (a CETP inhibitor discovered by Pfizer that raises HDL-cholesterol)HDL cholesterol) with atorvastatin (Lipitor), iscontinuing in global Phase 3 clinical trials. This comprehensive 12,000-subject development program includes three comparative atherosclerotic imaging trials (a coronary intravascular ultrasound study and two carotid ultrasound studies), as well as a full range of blood-lipid efficacy studies comparing torcetrapib/atorvastatin to Lipitor, other statins and fibrates. We are in the midst of the blood-lipid efficacy program, and we anticipate completion of the three ongoing imaging trials by the end of this year. Assuming that we see sufficient improvements over the comparative agents in these various studies, we plan to file the torcetrapib/atorvastatin NDA in 2007.
In addition to these Phase 3 studies, the development program includes a definitive mortality and morbidity trial, which has completed enrollment.
The American Heart Association has accepted for presentation at its annual meeting on November 15, 2006, the torcetrapib/atorvastatin program's study results in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH). In this relatively uncommon condition, which is found in one of every 500 people in the general population and is characterized by high LDL-cholesterol levels, the study primarily investigated the drug's lipid efficacy and safety in comparison to matching doses of Lipitor in 437 patients who were treated for 24 weeks. In this HeFH study, torcetrapib/atorvastatin raised HDL ("good") cholesterol by about 56% and additionally lowered LDL ("bad") cholesterol by about 27% compared to Lipitor alone. Patients in the torcetrapib/atorvastatin group experienced an average increase in systolic blood pressure that was about 2 millimeters greater than the increase experienced by patients in the Lipitor-only group. Generally, in all of the blood-lipid efficacy studies completed to date, torcetrapib/atorvastatin increased HDL cholesterol by 55-60% and additionally lowered LDL cholesterol by 10-15% compared to Lipitor alone. In those studies, patients in the torcetrapib/atorvastatin group experienced an average increase in systolic blood pressure versus the comparator agents of approximately one millimeter above the two-to-three millimeter range that was observed in the Phase 2 studies. It is enrolling 13,000 patients.important to note that the Phase 3 results to date are far from complete, covering less than 25% of all patients in the entire torcetrapib/atorvastatin clinical trial program. No final conclusions regarding the efficacy and safety of torcetrapib/atorvastatin can be drawn until we complete the blood lipid-efficacy and imaging studies and do the accompanying statistical analysis. The torcetrapib/atorvastatin studies completed to date vary in duration and size, and preliminary results at this stage may not represent the final results when Phase 3 is completed. We expect to present the results of the three comparative atherosclerotic imaging studies at the American College of Cardiology meeting in March 2007.
Despite effective treatments, cardiovascular disease remains the number one killer worldwide with a residual relative risk of 6060% to 70% after treatment with statins. Therefore, the primary objective of the torcetrapib/atorvastatin development program is to provide clear evidence that substantially raising HDL-cholesterolHDL cholesterol and further lowering LDL-cholesterolLDL cholesterol can reduce cardiovascular risk beyond what can be achieved with current treatments. Torcetrapib will beis being developed with atorvastatin in order to rigorously test this hypothesis and the new CETP inhibition mechanism of action. This development program represents a major commitment by Pfizer to significantly advance the understanding of lipids and atherosclerosis in order to provide an important new tool for patients and prescribers in preventing and treating the global burden of cardiovascular disease.

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales increased 22% and 3% in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006 as compared to the same periods in 2005. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues increased in the three months ended October 1, 2006, primarily due to the unfavorable impact on expenses of foreign exchange, a concerted focus on inventory-reduction initiatives (exclusive of inventory build-up in advance of new product launches) and higher costs related to our AtS productivity initiative, partially offset by savings related to our AtS productivity initiative. Costs of sales as a percentage of revenues also increased for the nine months ended October 1, 2006, primarily due to higher costs related to our AtS productivity initiative and a concerted focus on inventory-reduction initiatives (exclusive of inventory build-up in advance of new product launches), partially offset by savings related to our AtS productivity initiative, the impact of the second-quarter 2005 inventory write-off of $56 million related to the suspension of Bextra sales.
Selling, Informational and Administrative Expenses
Selling, informational and administrative (SI&A) expenses increased 6% and remained flat in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006, as compared to the same periods in 2005. The increase in the three months ended October 1, 2006, reflect higher costs related to our AtS productivity initiative, expenses related to share-based payments and the higher promotional investments in new product launches and in-line product promotional programs during the second half of 2006. For the nine months ended October 1, 2006, such factors were offset by the favorable impact on expenses of foreign exchange. SI&A expense growth comparisons during the first half of 2006 were more favorable than in the second half of the year, since savings from our AtS productivity initiative began to be realized in the third quarter of 2005.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development (R&D) expenses increased 9% and decreased 2% in the three months and nine months ended October 1, 2006, as compared to the same periods in 2005. The increase reflects increased operational activity, higher costs related to our AtS productivity initiative, expenses related to share-based payments and higher payments related to intellectual property rights, partially offset by savings related to our AtS productivity initiative. The decrease reflects savings related to our AtS productivity initiative and a R&D milestone due to us from sanofi-aventis (approximately $118 million, pre-tax, in the first quarter of 2006). R&D expense growth comparisons during the first half of 2006 were more favorable than in the second half of the year, since savings from our AtS productivity initiative began to be realized in the third quarter of 2005.
Merger-Related In-Process Research and Development Charges
The estimated fair value of merger-related Merger-related in-process research and development charges (IPR&D) is expensed at the acquisition date. In 2005, we expensed $1.7 billionIPR&D of IPR&D,$513 million, pre-tax, was recorded in the first nine months of 2006, primarily related to our acquisition of Rinat on May 16, 2006, as compared to $1.4 billion and $1.7 billion, pre-tax, recorded in the third quarter and first nine months of 2005, primarily related to our acquisition of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on September 14, 2005 ($1.4 billion) and our acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on April 12, 2005 ($250 million). In 2004, we expensed $955 million of IPR&D, primarily related to our acquisition of Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. on February 10, 2004.

In connection with the AtS productivity initiative, which was launched in early 2005, Pfizer management has performed a comprehensive review of our processes, organizations, systems and decision-making procedures in a company-wide effort to improve performance and efficiency. WeWithout giving effect to any additional initiatives to transform our cost structure, we continue to expect the costs associated with this multi-year effort to continue through 2008 and to total approximately $4 billion to $5 billion, on a pre-tax basis. We now expect that cost savings from our AtS productivity initiative will be about $2.5 billion in 2006, substantially ahead of our original guidance of about $2 billion and, without giving effect to any additional initiatives to transform our cost structure, growing to about $4 billion annually upon completion in 2008, notwithstanding the planned divestiture of our Consumer Healthcare business and the expense reductions associated with that business. Savings realized during the third quarter and first nine months of 2006 total approximately $600 million and $1.8 billion. The actions associated with the AtS productivity initiative will include restructuring charges, such as asset impairments, exit costs and severance costs (including any related impacts to our benefit plans, including settlements and curtailments) and associated implementation costs, such as accelerated depreciation charges, primarily associated with plant network optimization efforts, and expenses associated with system and process standardization and the expansion of shared services.services (see Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 6, Adapting to Scale Productivity Initiative).

During the three months ended October 2, 2005, we expensed $85 million for Employee termination costs, $62 million for Asset impairments and $6 million in Other. Through October 2, 2005, Employee termination costs represent the approved reduction of the workforce by 922 employees, mainly in manufacturing, sales and research. We notified affected individuals and 903 employees were terminated as of October 2, 2005. Employee termination costs are recorded as incurred and include accrued severance benefits, pension and postretirement benefits. Asset impairments primarily include charges to write down intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment. Other primarily includes costs to exit certain activities.
Merger-Related Costs
In connection with acquisitions, we typically restructure and integrate the operations of the acquired companies to eliminate duplicative facilities and reduce costs. In certain instances, legacy Pfizer operations may be impacted by restructuring actions.
We incurred the following merger-related costs primarily in connection with our acquisition of Pharmacia Corporation (Pharmacia), which was completed on April 16, 2003:costs:

Restructuring charges included severance, costs of vacating duplicative facilities, contract termination and other exit costs.
Through April 15, 2004, we recorded restructuring costs associated with employee terminations and exiting certain activities of legacy Pharmacia as liabilities assumed in the purchase business combination and recorded an increase to goodwill. Changes to previous estimates of restructuring costs included as part of the purchase allocation of Pharmacia are recorded as a reduction to goodwill or an expense to operations, as appropriate. Restructuring costs incurred for legacy Pfizer and restructuring costs incurred after April 15, 2004 for legacy Pharmacia are charged to the results of operations.

During the first nine months of 2005 and 2004, we expensed $73 million and $201 million for Employee termination costs, $131 million and $122 million for Asset impairment, and $22 million and $31 million in Other.Through October 2, 2005, Employee termination costs represent the approved reduction of the legacy Pfizer and legacy Pharmacia work force by 17,086 employees, mainly in corporate, manufacturing, distribution, sales and research. We notified affected individuals and 16,385 employees were terminated as of October 2, 2005. Employee termination costs are recorded as incurred and include accrued severance benefits and costs associated with change-in-control provisions of certain Pharmacia employment contracts. Asset impairments primarily include charges to write down property, plant and equipment. Other primarily includes costs to exit certain activities of legacy Pfizer and legacy Pharmacia.
Other (Income)/Deductions - Net
In the first nine months of 2005, we recorded impairment charges of $1.1 billion related to the developed technology rights for Bextra a selective COX-2 inhibitor, and $7 million related to the write-off of machinery and equipment, (see Note 2, Asset Impairment Charge and Other Costs Associated with the Suspension of Bextra Sales), both of which are included in Other (income)/deductions - net.
In addition, in connection with the suspension of Bextra sales, we recorded $56 million in write-offs of inventory and exit costs, included in Cost of sales; $8 million related to the costs of administering the suspension of sales, included in Selling, informational and administrative expenses; and $212 million for an estimate of customer returns, primarily included against Revenues.net. Substantially all of these charges were recorded in the first quarter of 2005.
In the third quarter of 2004, Pfizer recorded a litigation-related charge of $369 million related to the resolution of claims against Quigley Company, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, which is included in Other (income)/deductions - net.
PROVISION FOR TAXES ON INCOME
In the first nine monthsthird quarter of 2005,2006, we recorded an incomea decrease to the 2005 estimated U.S. tax charge of $1.7 billion, included in Provision for taxes on income, in connection with our decisionprovision related to repatriate about $36.7 billionthe repatriation of foreign earnings, due primarily to the receipt of information that raised our assessment of the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of a certain position and we recognized a tax benefit of $124 million.
On January 25, 2006, the Company was notified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Appeals Division that a resolution had been reached on the matter that we were in accordance with the American Jobs Creation Actprocess of 2004 (the Jobs Act).appealing related to the tax deductibility of a breakup fee paid by the Warner-Lambert Company in 2000. As a result, in the first quarter of 2006 we recorded a tax benefit of approximately $441 million related to the resolution of this issue.
On January 23, 2006, the IRS issued final regulations on Statutory Mergers and Consolidations, which impacted certain prior-period transactions. In the first quarter of 2005,2006, we recorded an initial estimated incomea tax chargebenefit of $2.2 billion based on$217 million, reflecting the decision to repatriate $28.3 billiontotal impact of foreign earnings. In the second quarter of 2005, we reduced our original estimate of the tax charge by $863 million and revised the repatriation of foreign earnings to $28.1 billion, principally as a result of guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury in May 2005. In the second quarter of 2005, we also recorded an additional tax charge of $373 million, primarily due to our decision to repatriate an additional $8.6 billion of foreign earnings.these regulations.
In the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a tax benefit of $586 million primarily related to the resolution of certain tax positions.
Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 34.4%15.6% for the first nine months of 20052006 compared to 19.4%34.5% in the same period in 2004.2005. The increaselower tax rate for the first nine months of 2006 is primarily due to tax benefits related to the resolution of a tax matter, the change in tax regulations and a decrease in the effective2005 estimated U.S. tax provision related to the repatriation of foreign earnings, as discussed above. The higher tax rate for the first nine months of 2005 is primarily due to the previously mentioned taxrecording of a $1.7 billion charge associated withrelated to our decision to repatriate certain foreign earnings under the repatriationAmerican Jobs Creation Act of foreign earnings2004 (the Jobs Act) and a $1.7 billion non-deductible charge for IPR&D, primarily relating to our acquisition of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Idun, Pharmaceuticals, Inc., partially offset by the tax benefit of $586 million primarily related to the resolution of certain tax positions. (See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 8, Taxes on Income.)
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - NET OF TAX
In June 2006, we entered into an agreement to sell our Consumer Healthcare business and this business has been presented as a discontinued operation. Income taxes infrom discontinued operations, net of tax, increased 12% and 10% for the firstthree months and nine months of 2004 were impactedended October 1, 2006, as compared to the same periods in 2005. The increase in both periods reflects higher net sales from our Consumer Healthcare business, offset by a $955 million non-deductible charge for IPR&D, primarily relatinghigher costs and expenses related to that business, and also reflects losses in 2005 from our acquisition of Esperion.
As of October 2, 2005, we intend to continue to permanently reinvest the earnings of our international subsidiaries and, therefore, we have not recorded a U.S. tax provision on the remaining amount of unremitted earnings.other discontinued businesses.
ADJUSTED INCOME
General Description of Adjusted Income Measure
Adjusted income is an alternative view of performance used by management and we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this performance measure. The Company reports Adjusted income in order to portray the results of our major operations--the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of prescription medicines for humans and animals, as well as our over-the-counter products--prioranimals--prior to considering certain income statement elements. We have defined Adjusted income as Net income before discontinued operations, significant impact of purchase accounting for acquisitions, merger-related costs, discontinued operations and certain significant items. The Adjusted income measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for U.S. GAAP Net income.
The Adjusted income measure is an important internal measurement for Pfizer. We measure the performance of the overall Company on this basis. The following are examples of how the Adjusted income measure is utilized.
• | Senior management receives a monthly analysis of the operating results of our Company that is prepared on an Adjusted income basis; |
| |
• | The annual budgets of our Company are prepared on an Adjusted income basis; and |
| |
• | Annual and long-term compensation, including annual cash bonuses, merit-based salary adjustments and stock options, for various levels of management, is based on financial measures that include Adjusted income. The Adjusted income measure currently represents a significant portion of target objectives that are utilized to determine the annual compensation for various levels of management, although the actual weighting of the objective may vary by level of management and job responsibility and may be considered in the determination of certain long-term compensation plans. The portion of senior management's bonus, merit-based salary increase and stock option awards based on the Adjusted income measure ranges from 10% to 30%. |
Despite the importance of this measure to management in goal setting and performance measurement, we stress that Adjusted income is a non-GAAP financial measure that has no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, has limits in its usefulness to investors. Because of its non-standardized definition, Adjusted income (unlike U.S. GAAP Net income) may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies. Adjusted income is presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses the performance of our Company.
We also recognize that, as an internal measure of performance, the Adjusted income measure has limitations and we do not restrict our performance-management process solely to this metric. A limitation of the Adjusted income measure is that it provides a view of our Company's operations without including all events during a period such as the effects of an acquisition, merger-related costs or amortization of purchased intangibles and does not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in the pharmaceutical industry. We also use other specifically tailored tools designed to ensure the highest levels of performance in our Company. For example, our R&D organization has productivity targets, upon which its effectiveness is measured. In addition, for senior levels of management, a portion of their long-term compensation is based on U.S. GAAP Net income.
Purchase Accounting Adjustments
Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering certain significant purchase-accounting impacts, such as those related to our acquisitions of Pharmacia, Rinat, Vicuron, Idun, and Esperionsanofi-aventis' rights to Exubera, as well as net-assetnet asset acquisitions. These impacts can include charges for purchased in-process research and development,R&D, the incremental charge to cost of sales from the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value and the incremental charges related to the amortization of finite-lived intangible assets for the increase to fair value. Therefore, the Adjusted income measure includes the revenues earned upon the sale of the acquired products without considering the aforementioned significant charges.
Certain of the purchase-accounting adjustments associated with a business combination, such as the amortization of intangibles acquired in connection with our acquisition of Pharmacia, can occur for up to 40 years (these assets have a weighted-average useful life of approximately 10nine years), but this presentation provides an alternative view of our performance that is used by management to internally assess business performance. We believe the elimination of amortization attributable to acquired intangible assets provides management and investors an alternative view of our business results by trying to provide a degree of parity to internally developed intangible assets for which research and development costs have been previously expensed.
However, a completely accurate comparison of internally developed intangible assets and acquired intangible assets cannot be achieved through Adjusted income. This component of Adjusted income is derived solely with the impacts of the items listed in the first paragraph of this section. We have not factored in the impacts of any other differences in experience that might have occurred if Pfizer had discovered and developed those intangible assets on its own and this approach does not intend to be representative of the results that would have occurred in those circumstances. For example, our research and development costs in total, and in the periods presented, may have been different; our speed to commercialization and resulting sales, if any, may have been different; or our costs to manufacture may have been different. In addition, our marketing efforts may have been received differently by our customers. As such, in total, there can be no assurance that our Adjusted income amounts would have been the same as presented had Pfizer discovered and developed the acquired intangible assets.
Merger-Related Costs
Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering integration and restructuring costs associated with business combinations because these costs are unique to each transaction and represent costs that were incurred to restructure and integrate two businesses as a result of the acquisition decision. For additional clarity, only restructuring and integration activities that are associated with a purchase business combination or a net-asset acquisition are included in merger-related costs. We have not factored in the impacts onof synergies that would have resulted had these costs not been incurred.
We believe that viewing income prior to considering these charges provides investors with a useful additional perspective because the significant costs incurred in a business combination result primarily from the need to eliminate duplicate assets, activities or employees--a natural result of acquiring a fully integrated set of activities. For this reason, we believe that the costs incurred to convert disparate systems, to close duplicative facilities or to eliminate duplicate positions (for example, in the context of a business combination) can be viewed differently from those costs incurred in other, more normal business contexts.
The integration and restructuring costs associated with a business combination may occur over several years with the more significant impacts ending within three years of the transaction. Because of the need for certain external approvals for some actions, the span of time needed to achieve certain restructuring and integration activities can be lengthy. For example, due to the highly regulated nature of the pharmaceutical business, the closure of excess facilities can take several years as all manufacturing changes are subject to extensive validation and testing and must be approved by the FDA. In other situations, we may be required by local laws to obtain approvals prior to terminating certain employees. This approval process can delay the termination action.
Discontinued Operations
Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering the results of operations included in discontinued operations, such as our Consumer Healthcare business which we have agreed to sell, as well as any related gains or losses on the sale of businesses and product lines included in discontinued operations as well as the related results ofsuch operations. We believe that this presentation is meaningful to investors because, while we review our businesses and product lines on an ongoing basisperiodically for strategic fit with our operations, we do not build or run our businesses with an intent to sell them.
Certain Significant Items
Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering certain significant items. Certain significant items represent substantive, unusual items that are evaluated on an individual basis. Such evaluation considers both the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of their unusual nature. Unusual, in this context, may represent items that are not part of our ongoing business; items that, either as a result of their nature or size, we would not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis; items that would be non-recurring; or items that relate to products we no longer sell. While not all-inclusive, examples of items that could be included as certain significant items would be a major non-acquisition-related restructuring charge and associated implementation costs for a program which is specific in nature with a defined term, such as those related to our Adapting to ScaleAtS productivity initiative; costs associated with a significant recall of one of our products; charges related to sales or disposals of products or facilities that do not qualify as discontinued operations as defined by U.S. GAAP; certain intangible asset impairments; adjustments related to the resolution of certain tax positions; the impact of adopting certain significant, event-driven tax legislation, such as charges attributable to the repatriation of foreign earnings in accordance with the Jobs Act; or possible charges related to legal matters, such as certain of those discussed in Legal Proceedings in our Form 10-K and in Part II: Other Information; Item 1, Legal Proceedings included in our Form 10-Q filings. Normal, ongoing defense costs of the Company or settlements and accruals on legal matters made in the normal course of our business would not be considered a certain significant item.

We rely largely on operating cash flow, short-term commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt to provide for the working capital needs of our operations, including our R&D activities. In addition, the proceeds from the repatriation of foreign earnings are being utilized to finance domestic activities over a multi-year time horizon, thereby reducing our reliance on domestic short-term borrowings. Our international borrowings will increase over the course of 2005 in order to fund the repatriation of foreign earnings. We believe that we have the ability to obtain both short-term and long-term debt to meet our financing needs for the foreseeable future.
Expected Impact of Repatriation of Foreign Earnings
Based on our decision to repatriate foreign earnings totaling about $36.7 billion in accordance with the Jobs Act, the use of proceeds includes domestic expenditures relating to advertising and marketing activities, research and development activities, capital assets and other asset acquisitions and non-executive compensation in accordance with the provisions of the Jobs Act (as in effect on October 2, 2005). As of October 2, 2005, we have completed the repatriation of approximately $23 billion. At October 2, 2005, our international subsidiaries held cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling in excess of $3 billion. Additionally, our international subsidiaries are expected to generate cash flows during 2005, which, together with third-party borrowings as required, will be available to fund the balance of the repatriation.
Investments
Our short-term and long-term investments consist primarily of high-quality, liquid investment-grade available-for-sale debt securities. Wherever possible, cash management is centralized and intercompany financing is used to provide working capital to our operations. Where local restrictions prevent intercompany financing, working capital needs are met through operating cash flows and/or external borrowings. Our portfolio of short-term investments was reduced in the first nine months of 2006 and the proceeds were primarily used to pay down short-term borrowings.
Long-Term Debt Capacity
Our short-term borrowings are rated P-1 byIn May 2006, we decided to exercise Pfizer's option to call, at par-value plus accrued interest, $1 billion of senior unsecured floating-rate notes, which were included in Long-term debt as of December 31, 2005. Notice to call was given to the Trustees and the notes were redeemed in the third quarter of 2006.
On February 22, 2006, we issued the following Japanese yen fixed-rate bonds, to be used for general corporate purposes:
• | $508 million equivalent, senior unsecured notes, due February 2011, which pay interest semi-annually, beginning on August 22, 2006, at a rate of 1.2%; and |
• | $466 million equivalent, senior unsecured notes, due February 2016, which pay interest semi-annually, beginning on August 22, 2006, at a rate of 1.8%. |
The notes were issued under a $5 billion debt shelf registration filed with the SEC in November 2002. Such yen debt is designated as a hedge of our yen net investments.
Credit Ratings
Two major corporate debt-rating organizations, Moody's Investors ServiceServices (Moody's) and A-1+ by Standard & Poor's (S&P). Our, assign ratings to our short-term and long-term debt. The following chart reflects the current ratings assigned to the Company's senior unsecured non-credit enhanced long-term debt is rated Aaaand commercial paper issued directly by Moody's and AAAthe Company or by S&P. Moody's and S&P are major corporate debt-rating organizations. affiliates with a guarantee from the Company by each of these agencies:
Long-Term-Debt | ||||
Name of Rating Agency | Commercial Paper | Rating | Outlook | |
Moody's | P-1 | Aaa | Negative | |
S&P | A1+ | AAA | Stable |
In early April 2005, following the market withdrawal of Bextra and the FDA's decision requiring new labeling for Celebrex, Moody's placed our Aaa rating under review for possible downgrade. The review was completed in June 2005 when Moody's removed Pfizer from review status and reaffirmed our Aaa rating. However, Moody's maintained our rating outlook as negative. S&P hasFollowing our announcement in June 2006 of the agreement to sell our Consumer Healthcare business and our target to purchase up to $17 billion of Pfizer stock in 2006 and 2007, Moody's again reaffirmed our AAAAaa rating and maintainswith a negative outlook. The negative outlook reflects Moody's concern that disappointing product sales, potential setbacks in the development of key pipeline products, or a shift towards a more aggressive financial profile, including higher levels of acquisition activity, could result in Pfizer's financial metrics falling below those appropriate for a Aaa-rated company.
S&P views our rating outlook as stable.stable, while they note a slowdown in sales and earnings growth as a result of major patent expirations and increased competition. S&P relies on Pfizer's excellent position in the worldwide pharmaceutical market, highlighted by our diverse drug portfolio and deep product pipeline, together with our superior financial profile and cash-generating ability.
Our superior credit ratings are primarily based on our diversified product portfolio, our strong operating cash flow, our substantial financial assets, our strong late-stage product pipeline and on our desire to maintain a prudent financial profile. Our access to financing at favorable rates would be affected by a substantial downgrade in our credit ratings.
Debt Capacity
We have available lines of credit and revolving-credit agreements with a group of banks and other financial intermediaries. We maintain cash balances and short-term investments in excess of our commercial paper and other short-term borrowings. At October 2, 2005,1, 2006, we had access to $3.0$3.6 billion of lines of credit, of which $1.1$1.2 billion expire within one year. Of these lines of credit, $2.8$3.3 billion are unused, of which our lenders have committed to loan us $1.7$2.1 billion at our request. $1.5$2.0 billion of the unused lines of credit, relatewhich expire in 2011, may be used to support our commercial paper borrowings.
AtAs of October 2, 2005,1, 2006, we had the ability to borrow approximately $2.0$1 billion by issuing debt securities under our existing debt shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in November 2002.

In July 2005, we decided to exercise Pfizer's option to call, at par-value plus accrued interest, $1 billion of senior unsecured floating-rate notes, which were included in Long-term debt at December 31, 2004. Notice to call was given to the Trustees and the notes were redeemed in September 2005.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
At October 2, 2005,1, 2006, goodwill totaled $23.8$21.1 billion (21%(19% of our total assets) and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, totaled $29.0$25.3 billion (26%(23% of our total assets). The largest components of goodwill and other intangible assets were acquired in connection with our acquisition of Pharmacia. OtherIn the first quarter of 2006, we acquired the sanofi-aventis worldwide rights, including patent rights and production technology, to manufacture and sell Exubera. In connection with the acquisition, we recorded an intangible asset for developed technology rights of approximately $1.0 billion and goodwill of approximately $166 million. Finite-lived intangible assets, included $23.0net, include $21.0 billion ofrelated to developed technology rights and $3.9$802 million related to brands. Indefinite-lived intangible assets include $3.0 billion of indefinite-livedrelated to brands.
The developed technology rights primarily represent the amortized acquisition-date fair value of the commercialized products that we acquired from Pharmacia. We acquired a well-diversified portfolio of developed technology rights across the therapeutic categories displayed in the table of major Human HealthPharmaceutical products in the "Revenues" section of MD&A. While the Arthritis and Pain therapeutic category represents about 28%27% of the total value of developed technology rights at October 2, 2005,1, 2006, the balance of the value is evenly distributed across the following Human HealthPharmaceutical therapeutic product categories: Ophthalmology; Oncology; Urology; Infectious and Respiratory Diseases; Endocrine Disorders categories; and, as a group, the Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases; Central Nervous System Disorders and All Other categories.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
During the first nine months of 2005,2006, net cash provided by continuing operating activities was $10.0$13.1 billion, as compared to $10.4$10.0 billion in the same period of 2004.2005. The decreaseincrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by lower current period income from operations,attributable to:
• | higher tax payments in 2005 of $1.7 billion, primarily related to the repatriation of foreign earnings in 2005, and |
• | higher current period net income, adjusted for non-cash items, reflecting, among other things, the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business. |

The change from net cash usedincrease in 2004 to net cash provided by investing activities was primarily attributable to:
• | higher net redemptions of investments in 2006 (a positive change in cash and cash equivalents of $1.9 billion); in 2006, the proceeds of which were utilized to repay debt and in 2005, the proceeds of which were used to fund the repatriation of foreign earnings as a result of the Jobs Act, and |

Duringtotal, under the third quarter of 2005,October 2004 program, we purchased approximately 4.3185 million shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $111 million under the new program. The Company has purchased nearly 126 million shares of common stock, at a cost of approximately $3.4 billion, during 2005. We remain committed to completing this newly authorized $5 billion share-purchase program.shares.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
In the ordinary course of business and in connection with the sale of assets and businesses, we often indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with a transaction or related to activities prior to a transaction. These indemnifications typically pertain to environmental, tax, employee and/or product-related matters, and patent infringement claims. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we would be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnifications are generally subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations. Historically, we have not generally paid significant amounts under these provisions and atas of October 2, 2005,1, 2006, recorded amounts for the estimated fair value of these indemnifications are not material.significant.
Certain of our copromotionco-promotion or license agreements include additional provisions that give our alliancelicensors or partners the rightrights to negotiate for, or in some cases to obtain, under certain financial conditions, copromotionco-promotion or other rights in specified countries with respect to certain of our products.
RECENTLY ISSUEDADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Share-Based Payment
In December 2004,On January 1, 2006, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issuedprovisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment,. SFASas supplemented by the guidance provided by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.107, issued in March 2005. (SFAS 123R replaces SFAS 123,Stock-Based Compensation, issued in 1995.) (See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 4, Adoption of New Accounting Standards, and Note 14, Share-Based Payments.)
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R). SFAS 123R158 requires an employer to recognize the funded status of its defined benefit pension and postretirement plans on its statement of financial position and to recognize as a component of other comprehensive income, net of taxes, the gains or losses and prior service credits that arise during the fair valueperiod but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit costs. Upon initial adoption, SFAS 158 requires the grantrecognition of employee stock options be reported as an expense. We plan to adopt SFAS 123R, when required, beginning in the first quarterpreviously unrecognized actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs or credits and net transition amounts within Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of 2006. (We had previously disclosed an intention to adopt, when required, in mid-2005, but the SEC delayed the required effective date). Determining the impacttax. The provisions of SFAS 123R on our future results of operations requires a number of complex estimates about future events. For example, such an assessment would require a prediction about the number of options to be granted, primarily in February of next year, and a forecast,158 are effective as of the grant date,end of fiscal year 2006. Based on current information, we estimate that the adoption of SFAS 158 will have the effect of decreasing our stock price,Total Assets by approximately $2.0 billion, increasing our Total liabilities by approximately $2.5 billion and reducing our Total shareholders' equity by approximately $4.5 billion, all on a pre-tax basis. We expect the market-based stock price volatility and the risk-free interest rate, all of which can be highly variable and difficult to predict. As such, currently, we cannot reasonably estimate thenet deferred tax impact of SFAS 123R on our results of operations in 2006.these adjustments to approximate 37%.
Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations
In March 2005,June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47,48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement ObligationsUncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 47), an interpretation of SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 47 clarifies48 provides guidance relative to the recognition, derecognition and measurement of tax positions for financial statement purposes. Historically, our policy has been to account for uncertainty in income taxes based on whether we determined that conditional obligations meetour tax position is "probable" of being sustained. FIN 48 requires the accounting be determined based on if it is "more likely than not" that a tax position will be sustained -- a lower level of certainty. Upon adoption of FIN 48, any gains or losses would be recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact on the financial statements of adopting FIN 48. We expect to adopt the standard when required in 2007.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 provides guidance for, among other things, the definition of an asset retirement obligation in SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, and therefore should be recognized if their fair value is reasonably estimable.and the methods used to measure fair value. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We plan to adopt FIN 47are currently in the fourth quarterprocess of 2005. We do not expectevaluating the provisionsimpact of FIN 47 to have a material impactadopting SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.
OUTLOOK
Results in 20052006 have been, and results over the next few years will continue to be, impacted by the loss of U.S. exclusivity of four major products--Diflucan, Neurontin, and Accupril/Accuretic during 2004 and Zithromax in November 2005. Revenuescertain key products since the beginning of 2004. Results also have been, and may continue to be, impacted by publicity and regulatory actions regarding selective COX-2 inhibitors, as well as lower prescription growth and increased competition in key marketsmarkets. In addition, we have recently seen a variability of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies and restrictive actions on access and pricing taken by influential decision makers in several large European markets. As a result of these near-term challenges, at current exchange rates, we are now expecting revenues in 2007 and 2008 to be comparable to 2006, as compared to our previous forecast of modest revenue growth over the period.
The growth of four products--Lipitor, Celebrex, Lyrica and Geodon--is contributing significantly to our 2006 revenues. At current exchange rates, we are committed to achieving our full-year 2006 revenue targets for these four products and continue to expect 2006 aggregate revenues to be comparable to overall revenues in 2005. At current exchange rates we target Lipitor sales of about $13 billion; Celebrex revenues of about $2 billion; Geodon revenues of about $800 million; and Lyrica revenues of more than $1 billion in 2006.
We continue to forecast 2006 adjusted diluted EPS of about $2.00. Reported diluted EPS for 2006 is now forecast at about $1.63, reflecting the impact of an equity sale in the U.S., suchthird quarter as well as a decrease of the lipid-lowering marketestimated 2005 U.S. tax provision related to the repatriation of foreign earnings as discussed in the "Provision for Taxes on Income" section. We expect the cost of sales pre-tax component of adjusted income as a percentage of revenues to remain under pressure in the fourth quarter of 2006 and we now expect the erectile-dysfunction market. Full-yearcost of sales pre-tax component of adjusted income as a percentage of revenues are expectedthis year to evidence a modest decline relativebe comparable to 2004, although a somewhat larger decline than previously anticipated, reflecting lower Human Health revenues.2005. We continue to expect the SI&A pre-tax component of adjusted income to be about $15.4 billion in 2006. We now expect the R&D pre-tax component of adjusted income to be about $7.4 billion. We continue to expect our cash flow from operations to exceed $16 billion in 2006.
In 2005, we anticipate Pharmacia merger-related synergiesWe now expect AtS-related cost savings in excess of approximately $4.2$2.5 billion in 2006, an increase of $600 millionat least $1.7 billion over 2004 synergies. We also expect to achieve approximately $600 million in cost savings from our AtS productivityinitiative during 2005 greater than previously forecasted, mainly attributable to the Human Health business.savings.
Given these and other factors, a reconciliation, at current exchange rates we expect 2005and reflecting management's current assessment for 2006, of forecasted 2006 Adjusted income of $14.2 to $14.4 billion,and Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.92 to $1.94,forecasted 2006 reported Net income of $7.5 to $7.7 billion, and reported diluted EPS of $1.02 to $1.04,follows:

(b) | Primarily reflects the reclassification of our Consumer Healthcare business to discontinued operations. |
Our forecasted financial performance is subject to a number of factors and uncertainties--as described in the "Cautionary"Forward Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results" section below. The forecasted Adjusted income and diluted EPS ranges, as well as the forecasted reported Net income and diluted EPS ranges, are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties--changes in prescription growth rates and increased competition in key therapeutic markets and geographies; Adapting to Scale restructuring activities; the timing and rate of commercial acceptance of new-product launches; changes in the geographic, product, and segment mix of our revenues and income; changes in foreign exchange; the timing of regulatory actions; and other factors. Some of these factors and uncertainties may persist over theour planning horizon. We are currently assessing these factors and other variables as part of our annual planning process and have withdrawn our previously provided financial guidance for 2006 and 2007.
A reconciliation of forecasted 2005 Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted EPS to forecasted 2005 reported Net income and reported diluted EPS follows:
($ billions, except per-share amounts) | Net Income | Diluted EPS | |

Forecasted Adjusted income/diluted EPS | $14.2 - $14.4 | $1.92 - $1.94 | |

Resolution of certain tax positions | .6 | .08 | |
Forecasted reported Net income/diluted EPS | $ 7.5 - $ 7.7 | $1.02 - $1.04 |
Pfizer's estimates of 2005 reported Net income of approximately $7.5 billion to $7.7 billion and reported diluted earnings per share of approximately $1.02 to $1.04, have been revised from the prior guidance of $9.1 billion and about $1.24. The revision is principally attributable to in-process R&D charges of $1.4 billion ($0.19 per share) related to the acquisition of Vicuron during the third quarter of 2005 and revised expectations (reflective of a lower revenue outlook, partially offset by greater expected savings associated with the Adapting to Scale productivity initiative and other expense revisions, and a lower effective tax rate), partially offset by anticipated gains on the sale of equity investments.
We expect to spend about $7.6 billion on research and development in 2005 and approximately $2.2 billion in capital expenditures for the full year 2005.

We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could varydiffer materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. Investors should bear this in mind as they consider forward-looking statements.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our Forms 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Form 10-K filing for the 20042005 fiscal year listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historic results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers can find them in Part I, Item 11A, of that filing under the heading "Cautionary"Risk Factors and Cautionary Factors That May Affect Future Results." We incorporate that section of that Form 10-K in this filing and investors should refer to it. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
This report includes discussion of certain clinical studies relating to various in-line products and/or product candidates. These studies typically are part of a larger body of clinical data relating to such products or product candidates, and the discussion herein should be considered in the context of the larger body of data.
Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
We and certain of our subsidiaries are involved in various patent, product liability, consumer, commercial, securities, environmental and tax litigations and claims; government investigations; and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe any of them will have a material adverse effect on our financial position.
We record accruals for such contingencies to the extent that we conclude their occurrence is probable and the related damages are estimable. If a range of liability is probable and estimable and some amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, we accrue that amount. If a range of liability is probable and estimable and no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, we accrue the minimum of such probable range. Many claims involve highly complex issues relating to causation, label warnings, scientific evidence, actual damages and other matters. Often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of loss and an estimation of damages are difficult to ascertain. Consequently, we cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential exposure or the range of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued for these contingencies. These assessments can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management. Litigation is inherently unpredictable, and excessive verdicts do occur. Although we believe we have substantial defenses in these matters, we could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any particular period.
Patent claims include challenges to the coverage and/or validity of our patents on various products or processes. Although we believe we have substantial defenses to these challenges with respect to all our material patents, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these matters, and a loss in any of these cases could result in a loss of patent protection for the drug at issue, which could lead to a significant loss of sales of that drug and could materially affect future results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Information required by this item is incorporated by reference from the discussion under the heading Financial Risk Management in our 2005 Financial Report, which is filed as exhibit 13 to our 2005 Form 10-K. We currently invest and borrow primarily on a short-term or effectively variable-rate basis.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
During our most recent fiscal quarter, there has not occurredbeen any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, we do wish to highlight some changes which, taken together, are expected to have a favorable impact on our controls over a multi-year period. We continue to pursue a multi-year initiative to outsource some transaction-processing activities within certain accounting processes and are migrating to a consistent enterprise resource planning system across the organization. These are enhancements of ongoing activities to support the growth of our financial shared service capabilities and standardize our financial systems. None of these initiatives is in response to any identified deficiency or weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

Certain legal proceedings in which we are involved are discussed in Note 1718 to the consolidated financial statements included in our 20042005 Financial Report; Part I, Item 3, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004;2005; and Part II, Item 1, of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended April 32 and July 3, 2005.2, 2006. The following discussion is limited to certain recent developments concerning our legal proceedings and should be read in conjunction with those earlier Reports. Unless otherwise indicated, all proceedings discussed in those earlier Reports remain outstanding. Reference also is made to the Legal Proceedings and Contingencies section in Part I, Item 2, of this Form 10-Q.
Patent Matters
Lipitor (atorvastatin)Norvasc (amlodipine)
As previously reported, our patent rights to Lipitor are being challenged in various countries. On October 12,between 2002 and 2005, in an action brought by generic manufacturer Ranbaxy Ltd., the United Kingdom's High Court of Justice upheld our basic U.K. patent for Lipitor, which expires in 2011, but ruled that a second patent covering the calcium salt of atorvastatin, which expires in 2010, is invalid. Both sides intend to appeal the decision. If upheld on appeal, the decision will prohibit Ranbaxy from introducing a generic version of atorvastatin in the U.K. before the expiration of our basic patent in 2011.
The trial of our Lipitor patent-infringement action against Ranbaxy in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware was held in late 2004. While a decision is possible later this year, the court has not indicated when it intends to issue its judgment.
Neurontin (gabapentin)
As previously reported, in 2000, 2001 and 2003, Warner-Lambertwe brought patent infringement suits in various federal courts against several generic manufacturers that hadhave filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA asserting the invalidity and non-infringement of our gabapentin (Neurontin) low-lactam patent. These suits were consolidated for pre-trial purposes in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The defendant generic manufacturers filed various summary judgment motions asserting invalidity and non-infringement on a number of grounds. In August 2005, the court, while denying eight of the ten summary judgment motions, granted two motions for summary judgment of non-infringement. It is expected that both sides will appeal the decision.
Neurontin has faced generic competition in the U.S. since last year. The FDA granted approval to a number of manufacturers for their generic gabapentin products, and the manufacturers began to market those products, in 2004.
Xalatan (lantanoprost)
As previously reported, in November 2001, a generic manufacturer notified Pharmacia that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a product containing latanoprost,generic version of amlodipine besylate, which Pharmacia markets as Xalatan. In December 2001, Pharmacia filed suit againstis the generic manufacturersalt form contained in Norvasc. Our patent for amlodipine besylate is being challenged in all of the U.S. District Courtsuits, and our basic patent for amlodipine also is being challenged in one of the District of New Jersey alleging infringement of various patents relating to latanoprost that are held by or licensed to Pharmacia. The generic manufacturer admitted infringement but claimed that these patents are invalid and unenforceable.suits.
In July 2004, the court held that twofirst of the three patents in suit are valid, infringed and enforceable, and it issued an injunction blocking sale of the generic product until the expiration of the later-expiringthese actions to go to trial, which involved only our amlodipine besylate patent, in March 2011. The generic manufacturer appealed the decision with respect to these two patents. The third patent, which also expires in March 2011, was held unenforceable. We appealed the decision with respect to the third patent. In July 2005, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court's decision as to all three patents, thereby blocking sale of the generic product until March 2011. In October 2005, the Federal Circuit denied the generic manufacturer's request for an en banc review of the three-member panel decision.
Product Liability Matters
Rezulin
As previously reported, in April 2001, Louisiana Health Service Indemnity Company and Eastern States Health and Welfare Fund filed a consolidated complaint against Warner-Lambert in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York purportedly on behalf of a class consisting of all health benefit providers that paid for or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Rezulin between February 1997 and April 2001. In September 2005, the court granted Warner-Lambert's motion for summary judgment and dismissed the complaint. In November 2005, the plaintiffs appealed the decision.
Viagra
A number of lawsuits, including purported class actions, have been filed against us in various federal and state courts alleging that Viagra causes certain types of visual injuries. The plaintiffs in the purported class actions seek to represent nationwide and certain statewide classes of Viagra users. All of the actions seek damages for personal injury, and the purported class actions also seek medical monitoring.
Commercial Matters
Lipitor
Beginning in September 2005, a number of purported class actions have been filed against us in various federal courts alleging claims relating to the promotion of Lipitor. In each of the actions, the plaintiffs seek to represent a nationwide class consisting of women (regardless of age) and men over age 65 who in each case had no history of heart disease or diabetes and who purchased Lipitor within the last four years. In certain of the actions, the plaintiffs also seek to represent health insurers, employee benefit plans and other third-party payors that paid for Lipitor used by individuals in either of the aforementioned two groups. The plaintiffs in these actions allege that the Company engaged in false and misleading advertising in violation of state consumer protection laws by allegedly promoting Lipitor for the prevention of heart disease in the aforementioned two groups. The actions seek monetary and injunctive relief, including treble damages. In addition, a purported class action on behalf of residents of the Province of Quebec has been filed against us in Canada that asserts claims under Canadian law and seeks relief substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the U.S. actions.
Celebrex and Bextra
As previously reported, the Company is a defendant in a number of product liability, consumer fraud, securities, fiduciary duty and ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) actions, including purported class and derivative actions, relating to Celebrex and Bextra. Certain current and former officers, directors and employees of Pfizer and Pharmacia also are named as defendants in some of those actions. In June 2005, the federal securities, fiduciary duty and ERISA actions were transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York for consolidated pre-trial proceedings. In September 2005, the federal product liability and consumer fraud actions were transferred toJanuary 2006 the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California for consolidated pre-trial proceedings.
Other Matters
Illinois held that our amlodipine besylate patent is valid and infringed by the generic manufacturer Torpharm/Apotex Inc.'s product. The Departmentcourt issued an injunction prohibiting Torpharm/Apotex from marketing its generic amlodipine besylate product before the expiration of Justice
The U.S. Department of Justice has informed us that it is investigating Pharmacia's former contractual relationship with a health care intermediary.
We have received requests for information and documents fromour amlodipine besylate patent (including the additional six-month pediatric exclusivity period) in September 2007. In February 2006, Torpharm/Apotex appealed the decision to the U.S. DepartmentCourt of Justice relatingAppeals for the Federal Circuit.
Similarly, in the second of these actions to certain physician payments budgetedgo to trial, which also involved only our prescription pharmaceutical products.amlodipine besylate patent, in August 2006 the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina held that our amlodipine besylate patent is valid and infringed by generic manufacturer Synthon Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s product. The court issued an injunction prohibiting Synthon from marketing its generic amlodipine besylate product before September 2007. In September 2006, Synthon appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
Importation Cases
AsSeparately, as previously reported, in 2004 a number of purported class actions wereNovember 2005 Synthon IP filed an action against us in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of MinnesotaVirginia alleging that Pfizerour sales of Norvasc and several other pharmaceutical manufacturers violated federal and state civil antitrust laws by conspiringCaduet infringe Synthon's patent relating to prevent the importationmanufacture of brand-name prescription drugs from Canada. These suits all were consolidated into a single action, which sought to represent a nationwide class consisting of all persons who purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of prescription drugs manufactured and marketed by defendants that also are available in Canada.amlodipine. In August 2005,2006, the court granted the defendants' motionjury held that Synthon's patent is invalid and is not infringed by our sales of Norvasc and Caduet. The decision is subject to dismiss this action, and the plaintiffs have appealed the decision. The previously reported California state court action by a number of independent pharmacists in California that asserts similar claims under California antitrust and unfair business practices laws is still pending. The defendants' motion to dismiss the California action was partially granted and partially denied in July 2005.possible appeal.
Environmental MattersGovernment Investigations
As previously reported, in July 2005 we received a request from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a civil penalty in the amount of $275,000 to settle certain alleged violationsstaff of the Federal Clean Air Act atSecurities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") for information and documents concerning our Kalamazoo, Michigan facilityCOX-2 franchise. In August 2006, we received a letter from the staff notifying us that were identifiedthis investigation has been terminated and that no enforcement action has been recommended by the EPA during an inspection in 2004. In September 2005, this matter was resolved pursuantstaff to a settlement that provides for a $47,250 civil penalty and a commitment to undertake two supplemental environmental projects at the facility. Corrective actions have been implemented.Commission.
Tax Matters
On January 25, 2006, the Company was notified by the IRS Appeals Division that a resolution had been reached on the matter that we were in the process of appealing related to the tax deductibility of a breakup fee paid by Warner-Lambert Company in 2000. As a result, in the first nine months of 2006 we recorded a tax benefit of approximately $441 million related to the resolution of this issue.
In the second quarter of 2005, we recorded a tax benefit of $586 million primarily related to the resolution of certain tax positions. In addition, we believe that the IRS audits of the Pfizer Inc. tax returns for the years 1999-2001 and the Warner-Lambert Company tax returns for the years 1999 through the date of the merger with Pfizer (June 19, 2000) are substantially complete. In connection with those audits, we are currently in the process of appealing one matter related to the tax deductibility of a breakup fee paid by Warner-Lambert Company in 2000.
The IRS has commenced the auditis currently conducting audits of the Pfizer Inc. tax returns for the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. The 2005 and 2006 tax year isyears are also currently under audit as we are voluntary participants inunder the IRS Compliance Assurance Program, which results inProcess, a recently introduced real-time tax audits.audit process.
As previously disclosed, withWith respect to Pharmacia Corporation, (formerly known as Monsanto Company), the IRS has completed and closed its income tax return examinations and appeals through 1999 and has commenced the auditaudits of the tax returns for the years 2000 through 2002 and is currently conducting an audit for the year 2003 through the date of the merger with Pfizer (April 16, 2003).
We periodically reassess the likelihood of assessments resulting from audits of federal, state and foreign income tax filings. We believe that our accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years.
