(UNAUDITED)

 
Note 1. Basis of Presentation

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 (U.S. 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 six-month periods ended May 30, 2010, and May 24, 2009.

On October 15, 2009, we completed our acquisition of Wyeth and, commencing from the acquisition date, our financial statements include the assets, liabilities, operating results and cash flows of Wyeth. As a result, legacy Wyeth operations are reflected in our results of operations for the second-quarter and six-month 2010 periods, but not for the second-quarter and six-month 2009 periods. Also, legacy Wyeth cash flows are reflected for the six-month period in 2010, but not for the six-month period in 2009.

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 our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Note 2. Adoption of New Accounting Policies
 
The provisions of the following new accounting standards were adopted as of January 1, 2010 and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements:

An amendment to the recognition and measurement guidance for the transfers of financial assets.

An amendment to the guidelines for determining the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity.

Note 3. Acquisition of Wyeth
 
On October 15, 2009 (the acquisition date), we acquired all of the outstanding equity of Wyeth in a cash-and-stock transaction, valued at the acquisition date at approximately $68 billion. While Wyeth now is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, the merger of local Pfizer and Wyeth entities may be pending or delayed in various international jurisdictions and integration in these jurisdictions is subject to completion of various local legal and regulatory obligations.
 
Recording of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

The following table summarizes the provisional amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date, as well as adjustments made in the first six months of 2010 to the amounts initially recorded in 2009 (measurement period adjustments). The measurement period adjustments did not have a significant impact on our consolidated statements of income, balance sheets or cash flows in any period and, therefore, we have not retrospectively adjusted our financial statements. Certain estimated values are not yet finalized (see below) and are subject to change, which could be significant. We will finalize the amounts recognized as we obtain the information necessary to complete the analyses, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

As previously reported in Pfizer’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(b)
The measurement period adjustments for Identifiable intangible assets primarily consist of adjustments recorded to reflect changes in the estimated fair value of certain acquired intangibles, principally in-process research and development assets. These adjustments were made largely to better reflect market participant assumptions about facts and circumstances existing as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustments did not result from intervening events subsequent to the acquisition date.
(c)
The measurement period adjustments for Net tax accounts primarily reflect the tax impact of the pre-tax measurement period adjustments offset by adjustments to uncertain tax positions following receipt of additional information from taxing authorities about facts and circumstances existing as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustments did not result from intervening events subsequent to the acquisition date.
(d)
Goodwill recognized as of the acquisition date (as adjusted) totaled $18,670 million for our Biopharmaceutical segment and $3,117 million for our Diversified segment. These amounts are not yet finalized and are subject to change.

The recorded amounts are provisional and subject to change. Specifically, the following items are subject to change:

Amounts for intangibles and inventory, pending finalization of valuation efforts.

Amounts for legal contingencies, pending the finalization of our examination and evaluation of the portfolio of filed cases.

Amounts for income tax assets, receivables and liabilities pending the filing of Wyeth pre-acquisition tax returns, including all required disclosures and documentation, as well as the receipt of information from taxing authorities, which may change certain estimates and assumptions used.

The allocation of goodwill among reporting units.

Note 4. Cost-Reduction Initiatives and Acquisition-Related Costs

We have incurred significant costs in connection with our cost-reduction initiatives (several programs initiated since 2005) and our acquisition of Wyeth on October 15, 2009.

Since the acquisition of Wyeth, our cost-reduction initiatives that were announced on January 26, 2009, but not completed as of December 31, 2009, have been incorporated into a comprehensive plan to integrate Wyeth’s operations, generate cost savings and capture synergies across the combined company. We are focusing our efforts on achieving an appropriate cost structure for the combined company.

(a)
Transaction costs represent external costs directly related to our acquisition of Wyeth and primarily include expenditures for banking, legal, accounting and other similar services. Substantially all of the costs incurred in the second quarter and first six months of 2009 were fees related to a $22.5 billion bridge term loan credit agreement entered into with certain financial institutions on March 12, 2009 to partially fund our acquisition of Wyeth. The bridge term loan credit agreement was terminated in June 2009 as a result of our issuance of approximately $24.0 billion of senior unsecured notes in the first half of 2009.
(b)
Integration costs represent external, incremental costs directly related to integrating Wyeth and primarily include expenditures for consulting and systems integration.

Includes adjustments for foreign currency translation.
 
(2) 
Included in Current deferred tax liabilities and other current liabilities ($1.6 billion) and Other noncurrent liabilities ($831 million).

Restructuring charges in 2010 are related to the integration of Wyeth. From the beginning of our cost-reduction initiatives in 2005 through July 4, 2010, Employee termination costs represent the expected reduction of the workforce by approximately 47,400 employees, mainly in manufacturing, sales and research, of which approximately 29,100 employees have been terminated as of July 4, 2010. Employee termination costs are generally recorded when the actions are probable and estimable and include accrued severance benefits, pension and postretirement benefits, many of which may be paid out during periods after termination. Asset impairments primarily include charges to write down property, plant and equipment to fair value. Other primarily includes costs to exit certain assets and activities.

Note 5. Taxes on Income

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 37.4% for the second quarter of 2010, compared to 25.8% for the second quarter of 2009, and 36.8% for the first six months of 2010, compared to 27.1% for the first six months of 2009. The higher tax rates in the second quarter and first six months of 2010 are primarily the result of:

higher charges, incurred as a result of our acquisition of Wyeth, and the mix of jurisdictions in which those charges were incurred, and

the expiration of the U.S. research and development tax credit.

The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2010 was additionally impacted by the write-off of the deferred tax asset of approximately $270 million related to the Medicare Part D subsidy for retiree prescription drug coverage, resulting from changes in the U.S. healthcare legislation enacted in March 2010 concerning the tax treatment of that subsidy effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2012, partially offset by $410 million in tax benefits for the resolution of certain tax positions pertaining to prior years with various foreign tax authorities.

(a)
Fair values are determined based on valuation techniques categorized as follows: Level 1 means the use of quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2 means the use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable; Level 3 means the use of unobservable inputs. Virtually all of our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis use Level 2 inputs in the calculation of fair value, except that included in available-for-sale equity securities, excluding money market funds, are $83 million as of July 4, 2010 and $77 million as of December 31, 2009 of investments that use Level 1 inputs in the calculation of fair value. None of our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are valued using Level 3 inputs as of July 4, 2010 or December 31, 2009.
(b)
Trading securities are held in trust for legacy business acquisition severance benefits.
(c)
Gross unrealized gains and losses are not significant.
(d)
Includes approximately $1.2 billion of money market funds held in escrow to secure certain of Wyeth’s payment obligations under its 1999 Nationwide Class Action Settlement Agreement, which relates to litigation against Wyeth concerning its former weight-loss products, Redux and Pondimin (see Note 7G. Financial Instruments: Guarantee).
(e)
Designated as hedging instruments, except for certain foreign currency contracts used as offsets; namely, foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $193 million as of July 4, 2010; and foreign currency swaps with fair values of $106 million and foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $100 million as of December 31, 2009.
(f)
The differences between the estimated fair values and carrying values of our financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis were not significant as of July 4, 2010 or December 31, 2009.
(g) 
Our short-term and long-term loans are due from companies with highly rated securities (Standard & Poor’s (S&P) ratings of mostly AA or better).
(h) 
Our private equity securities represent investments in the life sciences sector.
(i)
The decrease in selected financial assets is primarily due to the use of proceeds of short-term investments for tax payments made in the first quarter of 2010, associated with certain business decisions executed to finance the Wyeth acquisition.
(j)
Designated as hedging instruments, except for certain foreign currency contracts used as offsets; namely, foreign currency swaps with fair values of $230 million and foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $79 million as of July 4, 2010; and foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $122 million and foreign currency swaps with fair values of $3 million as of December 31, 2009.
(k)
The carrying amounts may include adjustments for discount or premium amortization or for the effect of interest rate swaps designated as hedges.
(l)
Includes foreign currency borrowings with fair values of $1.8 billion as of July 4, 2010 and $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2009, which are used as hedging instruments.

(m)
Includes foreign currency debt with fair value of $820 million as of July 4, 2010 and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2009, which is used as a hedging instrument.
(n)
The fair value of our long-term debt is $42.5 billion as of July 4, 2010 and $46.2 billion as of December 31, 2009.

We use a market approach to determine the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities and apply the following methods and assumptions:

Trading equity securities––quoted market prices.

Trading debt securities––observable market interest rates.

Available-for-sale debt securities––third-party matrix-pricing model that uses significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data and credit-adjusted interest rate yield curves.

Available-for-sale money market funds––observable Net Asset Value prices.

Available-for-sale equity securities, excluding money market funds––third-party pricing services that principally use a composite of observable prices.

Derivative financial instruments (assets and liabilities)––third-party matrix-pricing model that uses significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. Where applicable, these models discount future cash flow amounts using market-based observable inputs including interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies. The credit risk impact to our derivative financial instruments was not significant.

Held-to-maturity debt securities––third-party matrix-pricing model that uses significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data and credit-adjusted interest rate yield curves.

Short-term and long-term loans––third-party model that discounts future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
 
Private equity securities––application of the implied volatility associated with an observable biotech index to the carrying amount of our portfolio and, to a lesser extent, performance multiples of comparable securities adjusted for company-specific information.

Short-term borrowings and long-term debt––third-party matrix-pricing model that uses significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data and our own credit rating.
 
In addition, we have long-term receivables where the determination of fair value uses discounted future cash flows, using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

We regularly evaluate all of our financial assets for impairment. For investments in debt and equity securities, when a decline in fair value, if any, is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded, and a new cost basis in the investment is established. For loans, an impairment charge is recorded if it is probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan agreement. There were no significant impairments of financial assets recognized in the first six months of 2010 or the year ended December 31, 2009.

C. Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings include amounts for commercial paper of $1.8 billion as of July 4, 2010 and $3.9 billion as of December 31, 2009.

D. Long-Term Debt
In March 2007, we filed a securities registration statement with the SEC. The registration statement was filed under the automatic shelf registration process available to “well-known seasoned issuers” and expired in March 2010. On March 24, 2009, in order to partially finance our acquisition of Wyeth, we issued $13.5 billion of senior unsecured notes under this registration statement. On June 3, 2009, also in order to partially finance our acquisition of Wyeth, we issued approximately $10.5 billion of senior unsecured notes in a private placement pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act of 1933). The notes issued on June 3, 2009 have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and, subject to certain exceptions, may not be sold, offered or delivered within the U.S. to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons.

E. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Foreign Exchange Risk—A significant portion of our revenues, earnings and net investments in foreign affiliates is exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk, in part, through operational means, including managing expected same-currency revenues in relation to same-currency costs and same-currency assets in relation to same-currency liabilities. Depending on market conditions, foreign exchange risk also is managed through the use of derivative financial instruments and foreign currency debt. These financial instruments serve to protect net income and net investments against the impact of the translation into U.S. dollars of certain foreign exchange-denominated transactions. The aggregate notional amount of foreign exchange derivative financial instruments hedging or offsetting foreign currency exposures is $43.2 billion. The derivative financial instruments primarily hedge or offset exposures in euro, Japanese yen and U.K. pound. The maximum length of time over which we are hedging future foreign exchange cash flows relates to our $2.3 billion U.K. pound debt maturing in 2038.
 
Interest Rate Risk—Our interest-bearing investments, loans and borrowings are subject to interest rate risk. We seek to invest and loan primarily on a short-term or variable-rate basis; however, in light of current market conditions, we currently borrow primarily on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. From time to time, depending on market conditions, we will change the profile of our outstanding debt by entering into derivative financial instruments like interest rate swaps.
 
We entered into derivative financial instruments to hedge or offset the fixed interest rates on the hedged item, matching the amount and timing of the hedged item. The aggregate notional amount of interest rate derivative financial instruments is $11.1 billion. The derivative financial instruments hedge U.S. dollar and euro fixed-rate debt.

For information about the fair value of our derivative financial instruments, and the impact on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, see Note 7A. Financial Instruments: Selected Financial Assets and Liabilities. Certain of our derivative instruments are covered by associated credit-support agreements that have credit-risk-related contingent features designed to reduce our counterparties’ exposure to our risk of defaulting on amounts owed. The aggregate fair value of these derivative instruments that are in a liability position is $860 million, for which we have posted collateral of $869 million in the normal course of business. These features include the requirement to pay additional collateral in the event of a downgrade in our debt ratings. If there had been a downgrade to below an A rating by S&P or the equivalent rating by Moody’s Investors Service, on July 4, 2010, we would have been required to post an additional $54 million of collateral to our counterparties. The collateral advanced receivables are reported in Short-term loans.

F. Credit Risk
On an ongoing basis, we review the creditworthiness of counterparties to our foreign exchange and interest rate agreements and do not expect to incur a significant loss from failure of any counterparties to perform under the agreements. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk related to our financial instruments with any individual counterparty. As of July 4, 2010, we had $1.7 billion due from a well-diversified, highly rated group (S&P ratings of primarily A+ or better) of bank counterparties around the world. See Note 7B. Financial Instruments: Investment in Debt and Equity Securities for a distribution of our investments.

In general, there is no requirement for collateral from customers. However, derivative financial instruments are executed under master netting agreements with financial institutions. These agreements contain provisions that provide for the ability for collateral payments, depending on levels of exposure, our credit rating and the credit rating of the counterparty. As of July 4, 2010, we received cash collateral of $98 million against various counterparties. The collateral primarily supports the approximate fair value of our derivative contracts. The collateral received obligations are reported in Short-term borrowings, including current portion of long-term debt.

G. Guarantee
On April 15, 2010, Wyeth LLC (Wyeth), a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer), entered into the Tenth Amendment (Tenth Amendment) to the 1999 Diet Drug Nationwide Settlement Agreement (Settlement Agreement) related to the litigation against Wyeth concerning its former weight-loss products, Redux and Pondimin. Pursuant to the Tenth Amendment, Pfizer entered into an agreement to guarantee Wyeth's obligation to make certain payments under the Settlement Agreement up to a maximum amount of $1.5 billion (Guarantee). The Guarantee will remain in effect until the termination of Wyeth's long-term obligation to make such payments.  The Guarantee became a legal, valid and binding obligation of Pfizer on July 12, 2010, ten days after the approval of the Tenth Amendment by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Note 8. Inventories

The components of inventories follow:
(millions of dollars)
 
July 4,
2010
   
Dec. 31,
2009
 
             
Finished goods
  $ 4,230     $ 5,249  
Work-in-process
    4,083       5,776  
Raw materials and supplies
    1,198       1,378  
Total inventories(a)
  $ 9,511     $ 12,403  
(a)
The decrease in total inventories is primarily due to the inventory sold during the first six months of 2010 that was acquired from Wyeth and had been recorded at fair value, as well as operational reductions and the impact of foreign exchange. Certain amounts of inventories are in excess of one year’s supply.  These excess amounts are primarily attributable to biologics inventory acquired from Wyeth and recorded at fair value and the quantities are generally consistent with the normal operating cycle of such inventory. There are no recoverability issues associated with these quantities.

Note 9. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

  $ 39,848     $ 3,294     $ ––       $ 43,142  
(a)
The Other goodwill relates to our acquisition of Wyeth and is subject to change until we complete the recording of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Wyeth (see Note 3. Acquisition of Wyeth). In the second quarter of 2010 the Wyeth goodwill was allocated among the Biopharmaceutical and Diversified segments. This allocation has not yet been finalized and is subject to change, which could be significant. We will finalize the allocation as we obtain the information necessary to complete the analyses, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.
(b) 
 Reflects the impact of measurement period adjustments (see Note 3. Acquisition of Wyeth).
(c) 
 Primarily reflects the impact of foreign exchange.

(a)
Decrease is related to the impact of measurement period adjustments in the first six months of 2010 (see Note 3. Acquisition of Wyeth) and impairments recorded in the second quarter of 2010 related to IPR&D assets that we acquired as part of our acquisition of Wyeth. As a result of our review of the projects, based on developments in the second quarter of 2010, we recorded an impairment charge of $200 million ($125 million after-tax) in Other deductions––net.
(b)
Decrease is primarily related to amortization of finite-lived intangible assets, the impact of measurement period adjustments (see Note 3. Acquisition of Wyeth), and the impact of foreign exchange.

Amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets that contribute to our ability to sell, manufacture, research, market and distribute products, compounds and intellectual property is included in Amortization of intangible assets as it benefits multiple business functions. Amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets that are associated with a single function is included in Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses and Research and development expenses, as appropriate. Total amortization expense for finite-lived intangible assets was $1.5 billion for the second quarter of 2010, $615 million for the second quarter of 2009, $2.9 billion for the first six months of 2010 and $1.2 billion for the first six months of 2009.

The decrease in net periodic benefit costs in the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009 for our U.S. qualified pension plans was primarily driven by curtailment gains associated with Wyeth-related restructuring initiatives.  The acquisition of Wyeth contributed to the increase in certain components of net periodic benefit costs, such as service cost and interest cost, offset by related expected return on plan assets.

The increase in net periodic benefit costs in the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009 for our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans was primarily driven by special termination benefits recognized for certain executives as part of Wyeth-related restructuring initiatives.

The increase in net periodic benefit costs in the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009 for our international pension plans was primarily driven by the decrease in the discount rate and other differences in actuarial assumptions.

For the first six months of 2010, we contributed from our general assets $193 million to our international pension plans, $167 million to our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans and $115 million to our postretirement plans. Contributions to our U.S. qualified pension plans in the first six months of 2010 were not significant.

During 2010, we expect to contribute from our general assets, a total of $907 million to our U.S. qualified pension plans, $453 million to our international pension plans, $245 million to our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans, and $229 million to our postretirement plans. Contributions expected to be made during 2010 are inclusive of amounts contributed during the first six months of 2010. The international pension plan, U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plan and postretirement plan contributions from our general assets include direct employer benefit payments.
