NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

A. Basis of Presentation

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the U.S. 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 and nine months ended August 25, 2013 and August 26, 2012.

On June 24, 2013, we completed the full disposition of our Animal Health business (Zoetis), and recognized a gain of approximately $10.4 billion, net of tax, related to the disposal of this business in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 29, 2013. The operating results of this business are reported as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. In addition, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, the assets and liabilities associated with this business are classified as Assets of discontinued operations and other assets held for sale and Liabilities of discontinued operations, as appropriate. Prior period financial statements have been restated. For additional information, see Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

On November 30, 2012, we completed the sale of our Nutrition business to Nestlé. The operating results of this business are reported as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. For additional information, see Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of our condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of income.

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 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

B. Adoption of New Accounting Standards

There were no new accounting and disclosure standards adopted in the nine months ended September 29, 2013.

C. Fair Value

Our fair value methodologies depend on the following types of inputs:
Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets (Level 1 inputs).
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable (Level 2 inputs).
Unobservable inputs that reflect estimates and assumptions (Level 3 inputs).

A single estimate of fair value can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

Note 2. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments

A. Acquisitions

NextWave Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
In the first quarter of 2013, we finalized the allocation of the consideration transferred to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the acquisition of NextWave Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NextWave), a privately held, specialty pharmaceutical company, completed on November 27, 2012. The total consideration for the acquisition was approximately $442 million, which consisted of upfront payments to NextWave's shareholders of approximately $278 million and contingent consideration with an estimated acquisition-date fair value of approximately $164 million. We recorded $519 million in Identifiable intangible assets, consisting of $474 million in Developed technology rights and $45 million in In-process research and development; $166 million in net deferred tax liabilities; and $89 million in Goodwill. In the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, as a result of lowered commercial forecasts, the fair value of the contingent consideration decreased and we recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $128 million and $109 million, respectively, in Other (income)/deductions––net.

Alacer Corp.

On February 26, 2012, we completed our acquisition of Alacer Corp., a company that manufactures, markets and distributes Emergen-C, a line of effervescent, powdered drink mix vitamin supplements that is the largest-selling branded vitamin C line in the U.S. In connection with this Consumer Healthcare acquisition, we recorded $181 million in Identifiable intangible assets, consisting primarily of the Emergen-C indefinite-lived brand; $69 million in net deferred tax liabilities; and $192 million in Goodwill.

Ferrosan Holding A/S

On December 1, 2011, we completed our acquisition of the consumer healthcare business of Ferrosan Holding A/S (Ferrosan), a Danish company engaged in the sale of science-based consumer healthcare products, including dietary supplements and lifestyle products, primarily in the Nordic region and the emerging markets of Russia and Central and Eastern Europe. This acquisition is reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements beginning in the first fiscal quarter of 2012. Our acquisition of Ferrosan’s consumer healthcare business increases our presence in dietary supplements with a new set of brands and pipeline products. Also, we believe that the acquisition allows us to expand the marketing of Ferrosan’s brands through Pfizer’s global footprint and provide greater distribution and scale for certain Pfizer brands, such as Centrum and Caltrate, in Ferrosan’s key markets. In connection with this Consumer Healthcare acquisition, we recorded $362 million in Identifiable intangible assets, consisting of indefinite-lived and finite-lived brands; $94 million in net deferred tax liabilities; and $322 million in Goodwill.

B. Divestitures

Animal Health Business—Zoetis Inc.

On June 24, 2013, we completed the full disposition of our Animal Health business (Zoetis). The full disposition was completed through a series of steps, including the formation of Zoetis, an initial public offering (IPO) of an approximate 19.8% interest in Zoetis and an exchange offer for the remaining 80.2% interest.

Formation of ZoetisOn January 28, 2013, our then wholly owned subsidiary, Zoetis, issued $3.65 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes. Also, on January 28, 2013, we transferred to Zoetis substantially all of the assets and liabilities of our Animal Health business in exchange for all of the Class A and Class B common stock of Zoetis, $1.0 billion of the $3.65 billion of Zoetis senior notes, and an amount of cash equal to substantially all of the cash proceeds received by Zoetis from the remaining $2.65 billion of senior notes issued. The $1.0 billion of Zoetis senior notes received by Pfizer were exchanged by Pfizer for the retirement of Pfizer commercial paper issued in 2012, and the cash proceeds received by Pfizer of approximately $2.6 billion were used for dividends and stock buybacks.

Initial Public Offering (19.8% Interest)On February 6, 2013, an IPO of the Class A common stock of Zoetis was completed, pursuant to which we sold 99.015 million shares of Class A common stock of Zoetis (all of the Class A common stock, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' overallotment option to purchase additional shares, which was exercised in

(UNAUDITED)

full) in exchange for the retirement of approximately $2.5 billion of Pfizer commercial paper issued in 2013. The Class A common stock sold in the IPO represented approximately 19.8% of the total outstanding Zoetis shares. The excess of the consideration received over the net book value of our divested interest was approximately $2.3 billion and was recorded in Additional paid-in capital. For additional information, see Note 6. Certain Changes in Total Equity.

Exchange Offer (80.2% Interest)On June 24, 2013, we exchanged all of our remaining interest in Zoetis, 400.985 million shares of Class A common stock of Zoetis (after converting all of our Class B common stock into Class A common stock, representing approximately 80.2% of the total outstanding Zoetis shares), for approximately 405.117 million outstanding shares of Pfizer common stock on a tax-free basis pursuant to an exchange offer made to Pfizer shareholders. The $11.4 billion of Pfizer common stock received in the exchange transaction was recorded in Treasury stock and was valued using the opening price of Pfizer common stock on June 24, 2013, the date we accepted the Zoetis shares for exchange. For additional information, see Note 6. Certain Changes in Total Equity. The gain on the sale of the remaining interest in Zoetis was approximately $10.4 billion, net of income taxes resulting from certain legal entity reorganizations, and was recorded in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 29, 2013.

In summary, as a result of the above transactions, we received approximately $6.1 billion of cash and Treasury stock valued at $11.4 billion.

The operating results of the animal health business are reported as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 (through the disposal date) and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. In addition, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, the assets and liabilities associated with this business are classified as Assets of discontinued operations and other assets held for sale and Liabilities of discontinued operations, as appropriate. Prior period financial statements have been restated.

In connection with the above transactions, we entered into a transitional services agreement (TSA) and manufacturing and supply agreements (MSAs) with Zoetis that are designed to facilitate the orderly transfer of business operations to the standalone Zoetis entity. The TSA relates primarily to administrative services, which are generally to be provided within 24 months. Under the MSAs, we will manufacture and supply certain animal health products to Zoetis for a transitional period of up to 5 years, with an ability to extend, if necessary, upon mutual agreement of both parties. These agreements are not material and none confers upon us the ability to influence the operating and/or financial policies of Zoetis subsequent to June 24, 2013, the full disposition date.

Nutrition Business

On November 30, 2012, we completed the sale of our Nutrition business to Nestlé for $11.85 billion in cash, and recognized a gain of approximately $4.8 billion, net of tax. The divested business includes:
our former Nutrition operating segment and certain prenatal vitamins previously commercialized by the Pfizer Consumer Healthcare operating segment; and
other associated amounts, such as direct manufacturing costs, enabling support functions and other costs not charged to the business, purchase-accounting impacts, acquisition-related costs, impairment charges, restructuring charges and implementation costs associated with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, all of which are reported outside our operating segment results.

The operating results of this business are classified as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

C. Collaborative Arrangement

Collaboration for ertugliflozin

On April 29, 2013, we announced that we had entered into a worldwide, except Japan, collaboration agreement with Merck & Co., Inc. (Merck) for the development and commercialization of Pfizer's ertugliflozin (PF-04971729), an investigational oral sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) inhibitor currently in Phase 3 development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Under the terms of the agreement, we will collaborate with Merck on the clinical development and commercialization of ertugliflozin,

10

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

and ertugliflozin-containing fixed-dose combinations with metformin and Januvia (sitagliptin) tablets. Merck will continue to retain the rights to its existing portfolio of sitagliptin-containing products. Through September 29, 2013, we received payments totaling $60 million and we will be eligible for additional payments associated with the achievement of future clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones. The payments received to date have been deferred and are being recognized in Other (income)/deductions––net over a multi-year period. We will share potential revenues and certain costs with Merck on a 60%/40% basis, with Pfizer having the 40% share. Each party has the right to terminate the agreement at certain times under certain circumstances, with various resulting rights and obligations depending on the nature of the termination.

D. Equity-Method Investments

Investment in ViiV Healthcare Limited
On August 12, 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Tivicay (dolutegravir), a product for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, developed by ViiV Healthcare Limited (ViiV), an equity-method investee. This approval, in accordance with the agreement between GlaxoSmithKline plc and Pfizer, triggered a reduction in our interest in ViiV from 13.5% to 12.6% and an increase in GlaxoSmithKline plc's equity interest in ViiV from 76.5% to 77.4% effective October 1, 2013. As a result, in the third quarter of 2013, we recognized a loss of approximately $31 million in Other (income)/deductions––net. We continue to account for our investment in ViiV under the equity method due to the significant influence that we continue to have through our board representation and minority veto rights.

Investment in Hisun Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Company Limited

On September 6, 2012, we and Zhejiang Hisun Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., a leading pharmaceutical company in China, formed a new company, Hisun Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (Hisun Pfizer), to develop, manufacture, market and sell pharmaceutical products, primarily branded generic products, predominately in China. Hisun Pfizer was established with registered capital of $250 million, of which our portion was $122.5 million. On January 1, 2013, both parties transferred selected employees to Hisun Pfizer and contributed, among other things, certain rights to commercialized products and products in development, intellectual property rights, and facilities, equipment and distribution/customer contracts. Our contributions in 2013 constituted a business, as defined by U.S. GAAP, and included, among other things, the China rights to certain commercialized products and other products not yet commercialized and all associated intellectual property rights. As a result of the contributions from both parties, Hisun Pfizer holds a broad portfolio of branded generics covering cardiovascular disease, infectious disease, oncology, mental health, and other therapeutic areas. We hold a 49% equity interest in Hisun Pfizer.

We also entered into certain transition agreements designed to ensure and facilitate the orderly transfer of the business operations to Hisun Pfizer, primarily the Pfizer Products Transition Period Agreement and a related supply and promotional services agreement. These agreements provide for a profit margin on the manufacturing services provided by Pfizer to Hisun Pfizer and govern the supply, promotion and distribution of Pfizer products until Hisun Pfizer begins its own manufacturing and distribution. While intended to be transitional, these agreements may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties for several years and, possibly, indefinitely. These agreements are not material to Pfizer, and none confers upon us any additional ability to influence the operating and/or financial policies of Hisun Pfizer.

In connection with our contributions in the first quarter of 2013, we recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $459 million in Other (income)/deductions––net, reflecting the transfer of the business to Hisun Pfizer (including an allocation of goodwill from our Emerging Markets reporting unit as part of the carrying amount of the business transferred). Since we hold a 49% interest in Hisun Pfizer, we have an indirect retained interest in the contributed assets; as such, 49% of the gain, or $225 million, represents the portion of the gain associated with that indirect retained interest.

In valuing our investment in Hisun Pfizer (which includes the indirect retained interest in the contributed assets), we used discounted cash flow techniques, utilizing a 11.5% discount rate, reflecting our best estimate of the various risks inherent in the projected cash flows, and a nominal terminal year growth factor. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions inherent in this approach include: the amount and timing of the projected net cash flows, which include the expected impact of competitive, legal and/or regulatory forces on the products; the long-term growth rate, which seeks to project the sustainable growth rate over the long-term; and the discount rate, which seeks to reflect the various risks inherent in the projected cash flows, including country risk.

We are accounting for our interest in Hisun Pfizer as an equity-method investment, due to the significant influence we have over the operations of Hisun Pfizer through our board representation, minority veto rights and 49% voting interest. Our

11

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

investment in Hisun Pfizer is reported as a private equity investment in Long-term investments, and our share of Hisun Pfizer's net income is recorded in Other (income)/deductions––net. As of September 29, 2013, the carrying value of our investment in Hisun Pfizer is approximately $1.4 billion, and the amount of our underlying equity in the net assets of Hisun Pfizer is approximately $750 million. The excess of the carrying value of our investment over our underlying equity in the net assets of Hisun Pfizer has been allocated, within the investment account, to goodwill and other intangible assets. The amount allocated to other intangible assets is being amortized into Other (income)/deductions––net over an average estimated useful life of 25 years.
Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives

We incur significant costs in connection with acquiring, integrating and restructuring businesses and in connection with our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives. For example:
In connection with acquisition activity, we typically incur costs associated with executing the transactions, integrating the acquired operations (which may include expenditures for consulting and the integration of systems and processes), and restructuring the combined company (which may include charges related to employees, assets and activities that will not continue in the combined company); and
In connection with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, we typically incur costs and charges associated with site closings and other facility rationalization actions, workforce reductions and the expansion of shared services, including the development of global systems.

All of our businesses and functions may be impacted by these actions, including sales and marketing, manufacturing and research and development, as well as groups such as information technology, shared services and corporate operations. Since the acquisition of Wyeth on October 15, 2009, our cost-reduction initiatives announced on January 26, 2009, but not completed as of December 31, 2009, were incorporated into a comprehensive plan to integrate Wyeth’s operations to generate cost savings and to capture synergies across the combined company. In addition, among our ongoing cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, on February 1, 2011, we announced a new productivity initiative to accelerate our strategies to improve innovation and productivity in R&D by prioritizing areas that we believe have the greatest scientific and commercial promise, utilizing appropriate risk/return profiles and focusing on areas with the highest potential to deliver value in the near term and over time.

(a) 
Interest income decreased in the third quarter of 2013 as portfolio maturities were invested at lower rates; however, during the first nine months of 2013, interest income increased due to higher cash and investment balances. Interest expense decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 due to lower outstanding debt, refinancings and lower rates, and the benefit of the conversion of some fixed-rate liabilities to floating-rate liabilities.
(b) 
In the first nine months of 2013, reflects income from a litigation settlement with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Teva) and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Sun) for patent-infringement damages resulting from their "at-risk" launches of generic Protonix in the United States. As of September 29, 2013, the remaining receivables from Teva are included in Taxes and other current assets ($474 million) and Taxes and other noncurrent assets ($128 million). For additional information, see Note 12A5. Commitments and Contingencies: Legal Proceedings––Certain Matters Resolved During the First Nine Months of 2013.
(c) 
In the first nine months of 2013, primarily includes an $80 million insurance recovery related to a certain litigation matter. In the third quarter of 2012, primarily includes a $491 million charge relating to the resolution of an investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) into Wyeth's historical promotional practices in connection with Rapamune. In the first nine months of 2012, primarily includes the aforementioned $491 million charge related to Rapamune, a $450 million settlement of a lawsuit by Brigham Young University related to Celebrex, and charges for hormone-replacement therapy litigation. For additional information, see Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies.
(d) 
In the first nine months of 2013, represents the gain associated with the transfer of certain product rights to Hisun Pfizer, our equity-method investment in China.

The fair value amount is presented as of the date of impairment, as these assets are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. See also Note 1C. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Fair Value.
(b) 
Reflects intangible assets written down to their fair value in the first nine months of 2013. Fair value was determined using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method, also known as the discounted cash flow method. We started with a forecast of all the expected net cash flows associated with the asset and then we applied an asset-specific discount rate to arrive at a net present value amount. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions inherent in this approach include: the amount and timing of the projected net cash flows, which includes the expected impact of competitive, legal and/or regulatory forces on the product and the impact of technological risk associated with IPR&D assets; the discount rate, which seeks to reflect the various risks inherent in the projected cash flows; and the tax rate, which seeks to incorporate the geographic diversity of the projected cash flows.

Note 5. Tax Matters

A. Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 27.6% for the third quarter of 2013, compared to (6.5)% for the third quarter of 2012, and was 30.6% for the first nine months of 2013, compared to 17.7% for the first nine months of 2012.

The unfavorable change in the effective tax rate for both periods reflects favorable audit settlements in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012; specifically, (i) a tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion (representing tax and interest) recorded in connection with a settlement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to audits for multiple tax years (2006-2008), as well as (ii) a tax benefit recorded for the resolution of foreign audits pertaining to multiple tax years.

In addition, the unfavorable comparison of the first nine months of 2013 to the first nine months of 2012 reflects, to a lesser extent, (i) the tax rate associated with the patent litigation settlement income, (ii) the non-deductibility of the goodwill derecognized and the jurisdictional mix of the other intangible assets divested as part of the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China and (iii) the non-deductibility of the loss on an option to acquire the remaining interest in Teuto, a 40%-owned generics company in Brazil, since we expect to retain the investment indefinitely, partially offset by (i) the extension of the U.S. R&D tax credit (resulting in the full-year benefit of the 2012 R&D tax credit and the year-to-date 2013 R&D tax credit being recorded in the first nine months of 2013) and (ii) the change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business. For additional information about the patent litigation settlement income, see Note 12A5. Commitments and Contingencies: Legal Proceedings––Certain Matters Resolved

During the First Nine Months of 2013. For additional information about the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China, see Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity-Method Investments.

B. Tax Contingencies

We are subject to income tax in many jurisdictions, and a certain degree of estimation is required in recording the assets and liabilities related to income taxes. All of our tax positions are subject to audit by the local taxing authorities in each tax jurisdiction. These tax audits can involve complex issues, interpretations and judgments and the resolution of matters may span multiple years, particularly if subject to negotiation or litigation. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but our estimates of unrecognized tax benefits and potential tax benefits may not be representative of actual outcomes, and variation from such estimates could materially affect our financial statements in the period of settlement or when the statutes of limitations expire. We treat these events as discrete items in the period of resolution.

The United States is one of our major tax jurisdictions, and we are regularly audited by the U.S. IRS:
With respect to Pfizer Inc., tax years 2009 and 2010 are currently under audit. Tax years 2011-2013 are open, but not under audit. All other tax years are closed.
With respect to Wyeth, tax years 2006 through the Wyeth acquisition date (October 15, 2009) are currently under audit. All other tax years are closed.
With respect to King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (King), the audit for tax years 2009 and 2010 has been effectively settled in the third quarter of 2013. The tax year January 1, 2011 through the date of acquisition (January 31, 2011) is open, but not under audit. All other tax years are closed. The open tax year for King and its subsidiaries is not material to Pfizer Inc.

In addition to the open audit years in the U.S., we have open audit years in other major tax jurisdictions, such as Canada (2001-2013), Japan (2013), Europe (2007-2013, primarily reflecting Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain and Germany), Latin America (1998-2013, primarily reflecting Brazil and Mexico) and Puerto Rico (2007-2013).

Note 6. Certain Changes in Total Equity

The change in Additional paid-in capital in the first nine months of 2013 reflects, among other things, the impact of share-based payment transactions and an increase of approximately $2.3 billion related to the completion of an IPO for a 19.8% interest in Zoetis, our former Animal Health subsidiary, in the first quarter of 2013. The Zoetis-related increase represents the excess of the consideration received over the book value of our divested interest, which was recorded in Additional paid-in capital as we retained control over Zoetis immediately after the IPO transaction. For additional information, see Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

The change in Treasury stock in the first nine months of 2013 reflects, among other things, an increase of approximately $11.6 billion related to common stock acquired for cash and an increase of approximately $11.4 billion related to the divestment of the remaining 80.2% interest in Zoetis in the second quarter of 2013 through an exchange offer. For additional information, see Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

(a) 
We use a market approach in valuing financial instruments on a recurring basis. For additional information, see Note 1C. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Fair Value. 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 less than 1% that use Level 1 or Level 3 inputs.
(b) 
Trading securities are held in trust for legacy business acquisition severance benefits.
(c) 
Gross unrealized gains and losses are not significant.
(d) 
Includes $447 million as of September 29, 2013 and $408 million as of December 31, 2012 of money market funds held in trust in connection with the asbestos litigation involving Quigley Company, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary.
(e) 
Designated as hedging instruments, except for certain contracts used as offsets; namely, foreign currency swaps with fair values of $14 million and foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $65 million as of September 29, 2013; and, foreign currency forward-exchange contracts with fair values of $102 million as of December 31, 2012.
(f) 
The differences between the estimated fair values and carrying values of held-to-maturity debt securities, private equity securities at cost and short-term borrowings not measured at fair value on a recurring basis were not significant as of September 29, 2013 or December 31, 2012. The fair value measurements of our held-to-maturity debt securities and our short-term borrowings are based on Level 2 inputs, using a market approach. The fair value measurements of our private equity securities at cost are based on Level 3 inputs, using a market approach.
(g) 
Our private equity securities represent investments in the life sciences sector. The increase in 2013 primarily reflects an increased investment in our equity-method investment in China.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(a) 
OID = Other (income)/deductions—net, included in Other (income)/deductions—net in the condensed consolidated statements of income. OCI = Other comprehensive income/(loss), included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
(b) 
Also includes gains and losses attributable to the hedged risk in fair value hedge relationships.
(c) 
There was no significant ineffectiveness for any period presented.
(d) 
Amounts presented represent the effective portion of the gain or loss. For derivative financial instruments in cash flow hedge relationships, the effective portion is included in Other comprehensive income/(loss)––Unrealized holding gains on derivative financial instruments. For derivative financial instruments in net investment hedge relationships and for foreign currency debt designated as hedging instruments, the effective portion is included in Other comprehensive income/(loss)––Foreign currency translation adjustments.

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 above. 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. As of September 29, 2013, the aggregate fair value of these derivative instruments that are in a net liability position is $250 million, for which we have posted collateral of $221 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 September 29, 2013, we would have been required to post an additional $46 million of collateral to our counterparties. The collateral advanced receivables are reported in Cash and cash equivalents.

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 September 29, 2013, we had $2.5 billion due from a well-diversified, highly rated group (S&P ratings of mostly A+ or better) of bank counterparties around the world. For details about our investments, see Note 7B. Financial Instruments: Investments in Debt Securities.

In general, there is no requirement for collateral from customers. However, derivative financial instruments are executed under master netting agreements with financial institutions and these agreements contain provisions that provide for collateral payments, depending on levels of exposure, our credit rating and the credit rating of the counterparty. For information about our financial instruments (excluding the impact of collateral), see Note 7A. Financial Instruments: Selected Financial Assets and Liabilities and Note 7B. Financial Instruments: Investments in Debt Securities above. For information about the collateral posted on our derivative instruments, see Note 7E. Financial Instruments: Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities above. As of September 29, 2013, we received cash collateral of $526 million from various counterparties. The collateral primarily supports the approximate fair value of our derivative contracts. With respect to the collateral received, which is included in Cash and cash equivalents, the obligations are reported in Short-term borrowings, including current portion of long-term debt.

The decrease is primarily related to amortization, asset impairment charges and the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China. For additional information about the asset impairment charges, see Note 4. Other (Income)/DeductionsNet. For additional information about the transfer of certain product rights, see Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity-Method Investments.

As of September 29, 2013, our identifiable intangible assets are associated with the following, as a percentage of total identifiable intangible assets, less accumulated amortization:
Developed Technology Rights: Specialty Care (68%); Established Products (19%); Primary Care (12%); and Oncology (1%);
Brands, finite-lived: Consumer Healthcare (73%); and Established Products (27%);
Brands, indefinite-lived: Consumer Healthcare (69%); and Established Products (31%); and

IPR&D: Worldwide Research and Development (43%); Specialty Care (38%); Established Products (10%); and Primary Care (9%).
There are no percentages for our Emerging Markets business unit as it is a geographic-area unit, not a product-based unit. The carrying value of the assets associated with our Emerging Markets business unit is included within the assets associated with the other four biopharmaceutical business units.

Amortization

Amortization expense related to finite-lived 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 these intangible assets benefit multiple business functions. Amortization expense related to intangible assets that are associated with a single function is 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 $1.1 billion for the third quarter of 2013 and $1.2 billion for the third quarter of 2012, and $3.6 billion for the first nine months of 2013 and $4.0 billion for the first nine months of 2012.

Impairment Charges

For information about impairments of intangible assets, see Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net.

For IPR&D assets, the risk of failure is significant and there can be no certainty that these assets ultimately will yield a successful product. The nature of the biopharmaceutical business is high-risk and, as such, we expect that many of these IPR&D assets will become impaired and be written off at some time in the future.

(a) 
The decrease in net periodic benefit costs for the nine months ended September 29, 2013, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, for our U.S. qualified plans was primarily driven by lower service cost resulting from the decision in 2012 to freeze the defined benefit plans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, lower settlement activity and greater expected return on plan assets resulting from a higher plan asset base, partially offset by the curtailment gain in the second quarter of 2012 resulting from the decision to freeze the defined benefit plans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Also, the decrease in the discount rate resulted in lower interest costs, as well as an increase in the amounts amortized for actuarial losses.
(b) 
The increase in net periodic benefit costs for the nine months ended September 29, 2013, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, for our U.S. supplemental (non-qualified) pension plans was primarily driven by higher settlement activity, an increase in the amounts amortized for actuarial losses resulting from the decrease in the discount rate and the curtailment gain in the second quarter of 2012 resulting from the decision to freeze the defined benefit plans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, partially offset by special termination benefits in 2012.
(c) 
The increase in net periodic benefit costs for the nine months ended September 29, 2013, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, for our international pension plans was primarily driven by an increase in the amounts amortized for actuarial losses resulting from decreases in discount rates and higher settlement activity.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to numerous contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. For a discussion of our tax contingencies, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5B. Tax Matters: Tax Contingencies.

A. Legal Proceedings

Our non-tax contingencies include, among others, the following:
Patent litigation, which typically involves challenges to the coverage and/or validity of our patents on various products, processes or dosage forms. We are the plaintiff in the vast majority of these actions. An adverse outcome in actions in which we are the plaintiff could result in a loss of patent protection for the drug at issue, a significant loss of revenues from that drug and impairments of any associated assets.
Product liability and other product-related litigation, which can include personal injury, consumer, off-label promotion, securities-law, antitrust and breach of contract claims, among others, often involves highly complex issues relating to medical causation, label warnings and reliance on those warnings, scientific evidence and findings, actual, provable injury and other matters.
Commercial and other matters, which can include merger-related and product-pricing claims and environmental claims and proceedings, can involve complexities that will vary from matter to matter.
Government investigations, which often are related to the extensive regulation of pharmaceutical companies by national, state and local government agencies in the U.S. and in other countries. 

Certain of these contingencies could result in losses, including damages, fines and/or civil penalties, and/or criminal charges, which could be substantial.

We believe that our claims and defenses in these matters are substantial, but litigation is inherently unpredictable and excessive verdicts do occur. We do not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the amounts are accrued and/or our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid.

We have accrued for losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. Substantially all of our contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and/or the measurement of any loss can be complex. Consequently, we are unable to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but the assessment process relies heavily on estimates and assumptions that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause us to change those estimates and assumptions.

Amounts recorded for legal and environmental contingencies can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

The principal pending matters to which we are a party are discussed below. In determining whether a pending matter is a principal matter, we consider both quantitative and qualitative factors in order to assess materiality, such as, among other things, the amount of damages and the nature of any other relief sought in the proceeding, if such damages and other relief are specified; our view of the merits of the claims and of the strength of our defenses; whether the action purports to be a class action and our view of the likelihood that a class will be certified by the court; the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending; any experience that we or, to our knowledge, other companies have had in similar proceedings; whether disclosure of the action would be important to a reader of our financial statements, including whether disclosure might change a reader’s judgment about our financial statements in light of all of the information about the Company that is available to the reader; the potential impact of the proceeding on our reputation; and the extent of public interest in the matter. In addition, with respect to patent matters, we consider, among other things, the financial significance of the product protected by the patent. As a result of considering qualitative factors in our determination of principal matters, there are some matters discussed below with respect to which management believes that the likelihood of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued is remote.

A1. Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are involved in numerous suits relating to our patents, including but not limited to those discussed below. Most of the suits involve claims by generic drug manufacturers that patents covering our products, processes or dosage forms are invalid and/or do not cover the product of the generic manufacturer. Also, counterclaims, as well as various independent actions, have been filed claiming that our assertions of, or attempts to enforce, our patent rights with respect to certain products constitute unfair competition and/or violations of antitrust laws. In addition to the challenges to the U.S. patents on a number of our products that are discussed below, we note that the patent rights to certain of our products are being challenged in various other countries.

Viagra (sildenafil)
In March 2010, we brought a patent-infringement action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva USA) and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Teva Pharmaceutical Industries), which had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Viagra. Teva Pharmaceutical Industries subsequently was dismissed from this action. Teva USA asserts the invalidity and non-infringement of the Viagra use patent, which (including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period resulting from the Company’s conduct of clinical studies to evaluate Revatio in the treatment of pediatric patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension; Viagra and Revatio have the same active ingredient, sildenafil) expires in 2020. In August 2011, the court ruled that our Viagra use patent is valid and infringed, thereby preventing Teva USA from receiving FDA approval for a generic version of Viagra and from marketing its generic product in the U.S. before 2020. In September 2011, Teva USA appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. We and Teva USA have entered into an agreement to settle this litigation that will become effective upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including court approval.

In October 2010, we filed a patent-infringement action with respect to Viagra in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp., Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Mylan Inc., Actavis, Inc. and Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC. These generic manufacturers have filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market their generic versions of Viagra. They assert the invalidity and non-infringement of the Viagra use patent.

In May and June 2011, respectively, Watson Laboratories Inc. (Watson) and Hetero Labs Limited (Hetero) notified us that they had filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market their generic versions of Viagra. Each asserts the invalidity and non-infringement of the Viagra use patent. In June and July 2011, respectively, we filed actions against Watson and Hetero in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York asserting the validity and infringement of the use patent.

Sutent (sunitinib malate)
In May 2010, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Sutent and challenging on various grounds the Sutent basic patent, which expires in 2021, and two other patents, which expire in 2020 and 2021. In June 2010, we filed suit against Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the infringement of those three patents.

Lyrica (pregabalin)
Beginning in March 2009, several generic manufacturers notified us that they had filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Lyrica capsules and, in the case of one generic manufacturer, Lyrica oral solution. Each of the generic manufacturers is challenging one or more of three patents for Lyrica: the basic patent, which expires in 2018, and two other patents, one of which expired in October 2013 and the other of which expires in 2018. Each of the generic manufacturers asserts the invalidity and/or the non-infringement of the patents subject to challenge. Beginning in April 2009, we filed actions against these generic manufacturers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the infringement and validity of our patents for Lyrica. All of these cases were consolidated in the District of Delaware. In July 2012, the court held that all three patents are valid and infringed, thereby preventing the generic manufacturers from obtaining final FDA approval for their generic versions of Lyrica and from marketing those products in the U.S. prior to the expiration of the three patents. In August 2012, the generic manufacturers appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

Apotex Inc. notified us, in May and June 2011, respectively, that it had filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Lyrica oral solution and Lyrica capsules. Apotex Inc. asserts the invalidity and non-infringement of the basic patent, as well as the seizure patent that expired in October 2013. In July 2011, we filed an action

(UNAUDITED)

against Apotex Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the validity and infringement of the challenged patents in connection with both of the abbreviated new drug applications.

In November 2010, Novel Laboratories, Inc. (Novel) notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Lyrica oral solution and asserting the invalidity and/or non-infringement of our three patents for Lyrica referred to above in the first paragraph of this section. In January 2011, we filed an action against Novel in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the validity and infringement of all three patents.

In October 2011, Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited (Alembic) notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Lyrica capsules and asserting the invalidity of the basic patent. In addition, in December 2012, Wockhardt Limited (Wockhardt) notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Lyrica oral solution and asserting the invalidity and non-infringement of the basic patent. In December 2011 and January 2013, we filed actions against Alembic and Wockhardt, respectively, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the validity and infringement of the basic patent.

Each of Novel, Alembic and Wockhardt has agreed to a stay of the respective actions described above and to be bound by the decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal District in the appeal of the judgment of the District of Delaware in the consolidated action discussed above in the first paragraph of this section.

EpiPen
King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (King) brought a patent-infringement action against Sandoz, Inc., a division of Novartis AG (Sandoz), in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey in July 2010 as the result of its abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market an epinephrine injectable product. Sandoz is challenging patents, which expire in 2025, covering the next-generation autoinjector for use with epinephrine that is sold under the EpiPen brand name.

Embeda (morphine sulfate/naltrexone hydrochloride extended-release capsules)
In August 2011, Watson Laboratories Inc. - Florida (Watson Florida) notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Embeda extended-release capsules. Watson Florida asserts the invalidity and non-infringement of three formulation patents that expire in 2027. In October 2011, we filed an action against Watson Florida in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the infringement of, and defending against the allegations of the invalidity of, the three formulation patents.

Torisel (temsirolimus)
In December 2011, we brought patent-infringement actions in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Sandoz and Accord Healthcare, Inc. USA and certain of its affiliates (collectively, Accord) as a result of their abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Torisel before the expiration of the basic patent in 2014. In May 2012, we brought an action in the same court against Sandoz for infringement of a formulation patent that expires in 2026. In September 2012, our actions against Sandoz and Accord were consolidated in the District of Delaware. In October 2013, we and Accord entered into an agreement-in-principle to settle our action against Accord on terms that are not material to Pfizer.

Pristiq (desvenlafaxine)
Beginning in May 2012, several generic manufacturers notified us that they had filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Pristiq. Each of the generic manufacturers asserts the invalidity, unenforceability and/or non-infringement of two patents for Pristiq that expire in 2022 and in 2027. Beginning in June 2012, we filed actions against these generic manufacturers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the validity, enforceability and infringement of those patents. All of these actions have been consolidated in the District of Delaware.

Zyvox (linezolid)
In February 2013, Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. notified us that they had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Zyvox. They assert invalidity of the basic Zyvox patent, which (including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period) expires in 2015. In March 2013, we filed an action against Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois for infringement of the basic patent.

Detrol LA (tolterodine)
In February 2013, Lupin Ltd. and Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. notified us that they had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Detrol LA. They asserted the invalidity and non-infringement of three Detrol LA formulation patents, which (including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period) expire in 2020. In March 2013, we filed an action against Lupin Ltd. and Lupin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey for infringement of two of the formulation patents.
In March 2013, Inventia Healthcare Private Limited (Inventia) notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Detrol LA. Inventia asserted the invalidity and non-infringement of the three Detrol LA formulation patents referred to above. In April 2013, we filed an action against Inventia in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois for infringement of two of the formulation patents.
In October 2013, both of the actions described above were settled on terms that are not material to Pfizer.

Celebrex (celecoxib)
In March 2013, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted us a reissue patent covering methods of treating osteoarthritis and other approved conditions with celecoxib, the active ingredient in Celebrex. The reissue patent, including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period, expires in December 2015. On the date that the reissue patent was granted, we filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, asserting the infringement of the reissue patent, against Teva USA, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc., Watson, Lupin Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc., Apotex Corp. and Apotex Inc. Each of those generic companies had previously filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of celecoxib beginning in May 2014, upon the expiration of the basic patent (including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period) for celecoxib.

Toviaz (fesoterodine)
We have an exclusive, worldwide license to market Toviaz from UCB Pharma GmbH, which owns the patents relating to Toviaz.

Beginning in May 2013, several generic manufacturers notified us that they had filed abbreviated new drug applications with the FDA seeking approval to market generic versions of Toviaz and asserting the invalidity, unenforceability and/or non-infringement of all of our patents for Toviaz that are listed in the Orange Book. Beginning in June 2013, we filed actions against all of those generic manufacturers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the infringement of five of our patents for Toviaz: three composition-of-matter patents and a method-of-use patent that expire in 2019, and a patent covering salts of fesoterodine that expires in 2022.

Tygacil (tigecycline)
In September 2013, Apotex Inc. notified us that it had filed an abbreviated new drug application with the FDA seeking approval to market a generic version of Tygacil. Apotex Inc. asserts the non-infringement of a polymorph patent for Tygacil that expires in 2030, but has not challenged the basic patent, which expires in 2016. In September 2013, we filed suit against Apotex Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware asserting the infringement of the polymorph patent.

A2. Legal Proceedings––Product Litigation

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are defendants in numerous cases, including but not limited to those discussed below, related to our pharmaceutical and other products. Plaintiffs in these cases seek damages and other relief on various grounds for alleged personal injury and economic loss.

 Asbestos
Quigley

Quigley Company, Inc. (Quigley or, subsequent to the effectiveness of the amended reorganization plan on November 4, 2013, Reorganized Quigley), a wholly owned subsidiary, was acquired by Pfizer in 1968 and sold products containing small amounts of asbestos until the early 1970s. In September 2004, Pfizer and Quigley took steps that were intended to resolve all pending and future claims against Pfizer and Quigley in which the claimants allege personal injury from exposure to Quigley products containing asbestos, silica or mixed dust. We recorded a charge of $369 million pre-tax ($229 million after-tax) in the third quarter of 2004 in connection with these matters.

(UNAUDITED)

In September 2004, Quigley filed a petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York seeking reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In March 2005, Quigley filed a reorganization plan in the Bankruptcy Court that needed the approval of 75% of the voting claimants, as well as the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In connection with that filing, Pfizer entered into settlement agreements with lawyers representing more than 80% of the individuals with claims related to Quigley products against Quigley and Pfizer. The agreements provide for a total of $430 million in payments, of which $215 million became due in December 2005 and has been and is being paid to claimants upon receipt by Pfizer of certain required documentation from each of the claimants. The reorganization plan provided for the establishment of a trust (the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust) for the evaluation and, as appropriate, payment of all unsettled pending claims, as well as any future claims alleging injury from exposure to Quigley products.

In February 2008, the Bankruptcy Court authorized Quigley to solicit an amended reorganization plan for acceptance by claimants. According to the official report filed with the court by the balloting agent in July 2008, the requisite votes were cast in favor of the amended plan of reorganization.

The Bankruptcy Court held a confirmation hearing with respect to Quigley’s amended plan of reorganization that concluded in December 2009. In September 2010, the Bankruptcy Court declined to confirm the amended reorganization plan. As a result of the foregoing, Pfizer recorded additional charges for this matter of approximately $1.3 billion pre-tax (approximately $800 million after-tax) in 2010. Further, in order to preserve its right to address certain legal issues raised in the court’s opinion, in October 2010, Pfizer filed a notice of appeal and motion for leave to appeal the Bankruptcy Court’s decision denying confirmation.

In March 2011, Pfizer entered into a settlement agreement with a committee (the Ad Hoc Committee) representing approximately 40,000 claimants in the Quigley bankruptcy proceeding (the Ad Hoc Committee claimants). Consistent with the charges previously recorded with respect to Quigley, the principal provisions of the settlement agreement provided for a settlement payment in two installments and other consideration, as follows:
the payment to the Ad Hoc Committee, for the benefit of the Ad Hoc Committee claimants, of a first installment of $500 million upon receipt by Pfizer of releases of asbestos-related claims against Pfizer Inc. from Ad Hoc Committee claimants holding $500 million in the aggregate of claims (Pfizer began paying this first installment in June 2011 and all amounts have been paid);
the payment to the Ad Hoc Committee, for the benefit of the Ad Hoc Committee claimants, of a second installment of $300 million upon Pfizer’s receipt of releases of asbestos-related claims against Pfizer Inc. from Ad Hoc Committee claimants holding an additional $300 million in the aggregate of claims (Pfizer began paying this second installment in April 2013 and all amounts have been paid);
the payment of the Ad Hoc Committee’s legal fees and expenses incurred in this matter up to a maximum of $19 million (Pfizer began paying these legal fees and expenses in May 2011 and all amounts have been paid); and
the procurement by Pfizer of insurance for the benefit of certain Ad Hoc Committee claimants to the extent such claimants with non-malignant diseases have a future disease progression to a malignant disease (Pfizer procured this insurance in August 2011).

Following the execution of the settlement agreement with the Ad Hoc Committee, Quigley filed a revised plan of reorganization and accompanying disclosure statement with the Bankruptcy Court in April 2011, which it amended in June 2012. In August 2012, the Bankruptcy Court authorized Quigley to solicit the amended plan of reorganization for acceptance by claimants. The balloting agent's tabulation report filed with the court reflects that the requisite number of asbestos-related claimants cast votes in favor of the revised plan.
In June 2013, the Bankruptcy Court held a hearing to consider confirmation of the amended reorganization plan and, in July 2013, it entered an order confirming the plan. Subsequently, in July 2013, the District Court entered an order issuing an injunction directing pending and future claims alleging asbestos-related personal injury from exposure to Quigley products to the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust, subject to any appeal and to the decision of the Second Circuit discussed below. The District Court's judgment on its order became final and non-appealable on October 17, 2013. The amended reorganization plan became effective on November 4, 2013, at which time, consistent with the charges previously recorded with respect to Quigley, we contributed an additional amount of cash and non-cash items (including insurance proceeds and the value of certain debt forgiveness) to Reorganized Quigley and the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust with a value of approximately $1.08 billion; the value of the non-cash items was finalized and approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

In April 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed a ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York that the Bankruptcy Court’s preliminary injunction in the Quigley bankruptcy proceeding does not prohibit actions directly against Pfizer Inc. for alleged asbestos-related personal injury from exposure to Quigley products based on the “apparent manufacturer” theory of liability under Pennsylvania law. The Second Circuit’s decision is procedural and does not address the merits of the plaintiffs’ claims under Pennsylvania law. In June 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court denied our petition for certiorari seeking a reversal of the Second Circuit’s decision. As a result, actions against Pfizer Inc. for alleged asbestos-related personal injury from exposure to Quigley products alleging an “apparent manufacturer” theory of liability are no longer stayed and additional actions might be filed to the extent allowed by the Second Circuit's decision and applicable law.

In a separately negotiated transaction with an insurance company in August 2004, we agreed to a settlement related to certain insurance coverage which provides for payments to an insurance proceeds trust established by Pfizer and Quigley over a ten-year period of amounts totaling $405 million. All amounts paid by this insurance company to date were paid into the insurance proceeds trust and subsequently deposited in the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust as of the November 4, 2013 effective date of the Quigley amended reorganization plan. In addition, certain other insurance companies that issued policies covering Pfizer and Quigley entered into settlement agreements during the Quigley bankruptcy proceeding pursuant to which they have made, or will make in accordance with the schedules provided for in the respective settlement agreements, settlement payments to the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust for the benefit of present unsettled and future claimants with claims arising from exposure to Quigley products.
Other Matters
Between 1967 and 1982, Warner-Lambert owned American Optical Corporation, which manufactured and sold respiratory protective devices and asbestos safety clothing. In connection with the sale of American Optical in 1982, Warner-Lambert agreed to indemnify the purchaser for certain liabilities, including certain asbestos-related and other claims. As of September 29, 2013, approximately 66,400 claims naming American Optical and numerous other defendants were pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged personal injury from exposure to asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials. Warner-Lambert is actively engaged in the defense of, and will continue to explore various means to resolve, these claims.

Warner-Lambert and American Optical brought suit in state court in New Jersey against the insurance carriers that provided coverage for the asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials claims related to American Optical. A majority of the carriers subsequently agreed to pay for a portion of the costs of defending and resolving those claims. The litigation continues against the carriers who have disputed coverage or how costs should be allocated to their policies, and the court held that Warner-Lambert and American Optical are entitled to payment from each of those carriers of a proportionate share of the costs associated with those claims. Under New Jersey law, a special allocation master was appointed to implement certain aspects of the court’s rulings. By late-May 2013, Warner-Lambert and American Optical had agreed to principal settlement terms with all of those remaining carriers regarding their payment of a portion of the past costs and their coverages for a portion of the future costs of defending and resolving the aforementioned claims against American Optical. Final settlement agreements have been negotiated, and it is expected that final payment will be made and that Warner-Lambert's and American Optical's action against the insurance carriers will be dismissed in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Numerous lawsuits are pending against Pfizer in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged personal injury from exposure to products containing asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials sold by Gibsonburg Lime Products Company (Gibsonburg). Gibsonburg was acquired by Pfizer in the 1960s and sold products containing small amounts of asbestos until the early 1970s.

There also are a small number of lawsuits pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged exposure to asbestos in facilities owned or formerly owned by Pfizer or its subsidiaries.

Celebrex and Bextra
Beginning in late 2004, several purported class actions were filed in federal and state courts alleging that Pfizer and certain current and former officers of Pfizer violated federal securities laws by misrepresenting the safety of Celebrex and Bextra. In June 2005, the federal actions were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Pfizer Inc. Securities, Derivative and "ERISA" Litigation MDL-1688) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In March 2012, the court in the Multi-District Litigation certified a class consisting of all persons who purchased or acquired Pfizer stock between October 31, 2000 and October 19, 2005. In November 2012, several institutional investors that had opted out of the certified class filed three, separate, multi-plaintiff actions in the Southern District of New York against the same defendants named in the consolidated class action, asserting allegations substantially similar to those asserted in the consolidated class action. In September 2013, the Southern District dismissed the three, multi-plaintiff actions without prejudice, and the plaintiffs in those actions rejoined the certified class in the Multi-District Litigation.

Various Drugs: Off-Label Promotion Actions
In May 2010, a purported class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against Pfizer and several of our current and former officers. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making or causing Pfizer to make false statements, and by failing to disclose or causing Pfizer to fail to disclose material information, concerning the alleged off-label promotion of certain pharmaceutical products, alleged payments to physicians to promote the sale of those products and government investigations related thereto. Plaintiffs seek damages in an unspecified amount. In March 2012, the court certified a class consisting of all persons who purchased Pfizer common stock in the U.S. or on U.S. stock exchanges between January 19, 2006 and January 23, 2009 and were damaged as a result of the decline in the price of Pfizer common stock allegedly attributable to the claimed violations.

Various Drugs: Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Compliance
In February 2013, a shareholder derivative action was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against certain current and former officers and directors of Pfizer. Pfizer is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company as the result of, among other things, inadequate oversight of compliance by Pfizer subsidiaries in various countries outside the U.S. with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The plaintiff seeks damages in unspecified amounts and other unspecified relief on behalf of Pfizer.

Hormone-Replacement Therapy

Personal Injury and Economic Loss Actions
Pfizer and certain wholly owned subsidiaries and limited liability companies, including Wyeth and King, along with several other pharmaceutical manufacturers, have been named as defendants in approximately 10,000 actions in various federal and state courts alleging personal injury or economic loss related to the use or purchase of certain estrogen and progestin medications prescribed for women to treat the symptoms of menopause. Although new actions are occasionally filed, the number of new actions was not significant in the third quarter of 2013, and we do not expect a substantial change in the rate of new actions being filed. Plaintiffs in these suits allege a variety of personal injuries, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, stroke and heart disease. Certain co-defendants in some of these actions have asserted indemnification rights against Pfizer and its affiliated companies. The cases against Pfizer and its affiliated companies involve one or more of the following products, all of which remain approved by the FDA: femhrt (which Pfizer divested in 2003); Activella and Vagifem (which are Novo Nordisk products that were marketed by a Pfizer affiliate from 2000 to 2004); Premarin, Prempro, Aygestin, Cycrin and Premphase (which are legacy Wyeth products); and Provera, Ogen, Depo-Estradiol, Estring and generic MPA (which are legacy Pharmacia & Upjohn products). The federal cases were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Prempro Products Liability Litigation MDL-1507) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas. Certain of the federal cases have been remanded to their respective District Courts for further proceedings including, if necessary, trial.

This litigation consists of individual actions; a few purported statewide class actions; a purported nationwide class action in Canada; a purported province-wide class action in Quebec, Canada; a statewide class action in California; and a nationwide class action in Canada. In March 2011, in an action against Wyeth seeking the refund of the purchase price paid for Wyeth’s hormone-replacement therapy products by individuals in the State of California during the period from January 1995 to January 2003, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California certified a class consisting of all individual purchasers of such products in California who actually heard or read Wyeth’s alleged misrepresentations regarding such products. This is the only hormone-replacement therapy action to date against Pfizer and its affiliated companies in the U.S. in which a class has been certified. In addition, in August 2011, in an action against Wyeth seeking damages for personal injury and consumer fraud,

(UNAUDITED)

the Supreme Court of British Columbia certified a class consisting of all women who were prescribed Premplus and/or Premarin in combination with progestin in Canada between January 1, 1997 and December 1, 2003 and who thereafter were diagnosed with breast cancer.

Pfizer and its affiliated companies have prevailed in many of the hormone-replacement therapy actions that have been resolved to date, whether by voluntary dismissal by the plaintiffs, summary judgment, defense verdict or judgment notwithstanding the verdict; a number of these cases have been appealed by the plaintiffs. Certain other hormone-replacement therapy actions have resulted in verdicts for the plaintiffs and have included the award of compensatory and, in some instances, punitive damages; each of these cases has been appealed by Pfizer and/or its affiliated companies. The decisions in a few of the cases that had been appealed by Pfizer and/or its affiliated companies or by the plaintiffs have been upheld by the appellate courts, while several other cases that had been appealed by Pfizer and/or its affiliated companies or by the plaintiffs have been remanded by the appellate courts to their respective trial courts for further proceedings. Trials of additional hormone-replacement therapy actions are scheduled in 2014.

Most of the unresolved actions against Pfizer and/or its affiliated companies have been outstanding for more than five years and could take many more years to resolve. However, opportunistic settlements could occur at any time. The litigation process is time-consuming, as every hormone-replacement action being litigated involves contested issues of medical causation and knowledge of risk. Even though the vast majority of hormone-replacement therapy actions concern breast cancer, the underlying facts (e.g., medical causation, family history, reliance on warnings, physician/patient interaction, analysis of labels, actual, provable injury and other critical factors) can differ significantly from action to action, and the process of discovery has not yet begun for a majority of the unresolved actions. In addition, the hormone-replacement therapy litigation involves fundamental issues of science and medicine that often are uncertain and continue to evolve.

As of September 29, 2013, Pfizer and its affiliated companies had settled, or entered into definitive agreements or agreements-in-principle to settle, approximately 98% of the hormone-replacement therapy actions pending against us and our affiliated companies. Since the inception of this litigation, we recorded aggregate charges in previous years with respect to those actions, as well as with respect to the actions that have resulted in verdicts against us or our affiliated companies, of approximately $1.7 billion. These charges also include approximately $25 million for the expected costs to resolve all remaining hormone-replacement therapy actions against Pfizer and its affiliated companies, excluding the class actions and purported class actions referred to above. The approximately $25 million charges are an estimate and, while we cannot reasonably estimate the range of reasonably possible loss in excess of the amounts accrued for these contingencies given the uncertainties inherent in this product liability litigation, as described above, additional charges may be required in the future.

Government Inquiries; Action by the State of Nevada
Pfizer and/or its affiliated companies also have received inquiries from various federal and state agencies and officials relating to the marketing of their hormone-replacement products. In November 2008, the State of Nevada filed an action against Pfizer, Pharmacia & Upjohn Company and Wyeth in state court in Nevada alleging that they had engaged in deceptive marketing of their respective hormone-replacement therapy medications in Nevada in violation of the Nevada Deceptive Trade Practices Act. The action seeks monetary relief, including civil penalties and treble damages. In February 2010, the action was dismissed by the court on statute of limitations grounds. In July 2011, the Nevada Supreme Court reversed the dismissal and remanded the case to the district court for further proceedings.
 
Effexor
Personal Injury Actions
A number of individual lawsuits and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against us and/or our subsidiaries in various federal and state courts alleging personal injury as a result of the purported ingestion of Effexor. Among other types of actions, the Effexor personal injury litigation includes actions alleging a variety of birth defects as a result of the purported ingestion of Effexor by women during pregnancy. Plaintiffs in these birth-defect actions seek compensatory and punitive damages. In August 2013, the federal birth-defect cases were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Effexor (Venlafaxine Hydrochloride) Products Liability Litigation MDL-2458) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Antitrust Actions
Beginning in May 2011, actions, including purported class actions, were filed in various federal courts against Wyeth and, in certain of the actions, affiliates of Wyeth and certain other defendants relating to Effexor XR, which is the extended-release formulation of Effexor. The plaintiffs in each of the class actions seek to represent a class consisting of all persons in the U.S. and its territories who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR from any of the defendants from June 14, 2008 until the time the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct ceased. The plaintiffs in all of the actions allege delay in the launch of generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories, in violation of federal antitrust laws and, in certain of the actions, the antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws of certain states, as the result of Wyeth fraudulently obtaining and improperly listing certain patents for Effexor XR, enforcing certain patents for Effexor XR, and entering into a litigation settlement agreement with a generic manufacturer with respect to Effexor XR. Each of the plaintiffs seeks treble damages (for itself in the individual actions or on behalf of the putative class in the purported class actions) for alleged price overcharges for Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories since June 14, 2008. All of these actions have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.

Zoloft
A number of individual lawsuits and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against us and/or our subsidiaries in various federal and state courts alleging personal injury as a result of the purported ingestion of Zoloft. Among other types of actions, the Zoloft personal injury litigation includes actions alleging a variety of birth defects as a result of the purported ingestion of Zoloft by women during pregnancy. Plaintiffs in these birth-defect actions seek compensatory and punitive damages and the disgorgement of profits resulting from the sale of Zoloft. In April 2012, the federal birth-defect cases were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Zoloft Products Liability Litigation MDL-2342) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Neurontin
Off-Label Promotion Actions
A number of lawsuits, including purported class actions, have been filed against us in various federal and state courts alleging claims arising from the promotion and sale of Neurontin. The plaintiffs in the purported class actions seek to represent nationwide and certain statewide classes consisting of persons, including individuals, health insurers, employee benefit plans and other third-party payers, who purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Neurontin that allegedly was used for indications other than those included in the product labeling approved by the FDA. In 2004, many of the suits pending in federal courts, including individual actions as well as purported class actions, were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Neurontin Marketing, Sales Practices and Product Liability Litigation MDL-1629) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.

In the Multi-District Litigation, the District Court (i) denied the plaintiffs’ motion for certification of a nationwide class of all individual consumers and third-party payers who allegedly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Neurontin for off-label uses from 1994 through 2004, and (ii) dismissed an individual action by a third-party payer, Aetna, as well as actions by certain proposed class representatives for third-party payers and for individual consumers. In April 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reversed the decisions of the District Court dismissing the individual action by Aetna as well as the action by the third-party payer proposed class representatives. The First Circuit remanded those actions to the District Court for further consideration, including reconsideration of class certification in the third-party payer action. In addition, a number of individual actions by other third-party payers remain pending in the Multi-District Litigation and in other courts.

In January 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts entered an order trebling a jury verdict against us in an individual action by a third-party payer, the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan Inc., seeking damages for the alleged off-label promotion of Neurontin in violation of the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. The verdict was for approximately $47.4 million, which was subject to automatic trebling to $142.1 million under the RICO Act. In November 2010, the court had entered a separate verdict against us in the amount of $65.4 million, together with prejudgment interest, under California’s Unfair Trade Practices law relating to the same alleged conduct, which amount is included within and is not additional to the $142.1 million trebled amount of the jury verdict. In April 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit affirmed the District Court's decisions.

(UNAUDITED)

In August 2013, we filed a petition for certiorari seeking review by the U.S. Supreme Court of the First Circuit's decisions, described above, reversing the dismissals of the individual action by Aetna and the third-party payer purported class action and affirming the verdict against us in the individual action by Kaiser. Our petition asks the Supreme Court to review certain issues regarding causation and damages.

Plaintiffs are seeking certification of statewide classes of Neurontin purchasers in actions pending in California and Illinois that allege off-label promotion of Neurontin. State courts in New York, Pennsylvania, Missouri and New Mexico have declined to certify statewide classes of Neurontin purchasers.

Personal Injury Actions
A number of individual lawsuits have been filed against us in various federal and state courts alleging suicide, attempted suicide and other personal injuries as a result of the purported ingestion of Neurontin. Certain of the federal actions have been transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to the same Multi-District Litigation referred to in the first paragraph of the “Neurontin––Off-Label Promotion Actions” section above.

Antitrust Action
In January 2011, in a Multi-District Litigation (In re Neurontin Antitrust Litigation MDL-1479) that consolidates four actions, the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey certified a nationwide class consisting of wholesalers and other entities who purchased Neurontin directly from Pfizer and Warner-Lambert during the period from December 11, 2002 to August 31, 2008 and who also purchased generic gabapentin after it became available. The complaints allege that Pfizer and Warner-Lambert engaged in anticompetitive conduct in violation of the Sherman Act that included, among other things, submitting patents for listing in the Orange Book and prosecuting and enforcing certain patents relating to Neurontin, as well as engaging in off-label marketing of Neurontin. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages on behalf of the class, which may be subject to trebling.

Lipitor

Whistleblower Action
In 2004, a former employee filed a “whistleblower” action against us in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The complaint remained under seal until September 2007, at which time the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York declined to intervene in the case. We were served with the complaint in December 2007. Plaintiff alleges off-label promotion of Lipitor in violation of the Federal Civil False Claims Act and the false claims acts of certain states, and he seeks treble damages and civil penalties on behalf of the federal government and the specified states as the result of their purchase, or reimbursement of patients for the purchase, of Lipitor allegedly for such off-label uses. Plaintiff also seeks compensation as a whistleblower under those federal and state statutes. In addition, plaintiff alleges that he was wrongfully terminated, in violation of the anti-retaliation provisions of applicable federal and New York law, and he seeks damages and the reinstatement of his employment. In 2009, the District Court dismissed without prejudice the off-label promotion claims and, in 2010, plaintiff filed an amended complaint containing off-label promotion allegations that are substantially similar to the allegations in the original complaint. In November 2012, the District Court dismissed the amended complaint. In December 2012, the plaintiff appealed the District Court's decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

Antitrust Actions
Beginning in November 2011, purported class actions relating to Lipitor were filed in various federal courts against Pfizer, certain affiliates of Pfizer, and, in most of the actions, Ranbaxy, among others. The plaintiffs in these various actions seek to represent nationwide, multi-state or statewide classes consisting of persons or entities who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) from any of the defendants from March 2010 until the cessation of the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct (the Class Period). The plaintiffs allege delay in the launch of generic Lipitor, in violation of federal antitrust laws and/or state antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws, resulting from (i) the 2008 agreement pursuant to which Pfizer and Ranbaxy settled certain patent litigation involving Lipitor, and Pfizer granted Ranbaxy a license to sell a generic version of Lipitor in various markets beginning on varying dates, and (ii) in certain of the actions, the procurement and/or enforcement of certain patents for Lipitor. Each of the actions seeks, among other things, treble damages on behalf of the putative class for alleged price overcharges for Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) during the Class Period. In addition, individual actions have been filed against Pfizer, Ranbaxy and certain of their affiliates, among others, that assert claims and seek relief for the plaintiffs that are substantially

39

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above. These various actions have been consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a Multi-District Litigation (In re Lipitor Antitrust Litigation MDL-2332) in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.

In November 2012, the defendants moved to dismiss all of the foregoing actions. In September 2013, the court dismissed the claims by direct purchasers that relate to the procurement and/or enforcement of certain patents for Lipitor. In addition, the court limited the timeframe for which direct purchasers may pursue their remaining damage claims to the period from June 2011 to November 2011. The court deferred its ruling on the defendants' motions to dismiss the claims by direct purchasers that relate to the 2008 litigation settlement agreement with Ranbaxy and granted the plaintiffs leave to amend their complaints as to those claims. Defendants' motions to dismiss the actions by the other plaintiffs in the Multi-District Litigationthe indirect purchaser, third-party payer and individual plaintiffsremain pending.

Also, in January 2013, the State of West Virginia filed an action in West Virginia state court against Pfizer and Ranbaxy, among others, that asserts claims and seeks relief on behalf of the State of West Virginia and residents of that state that are substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above.

Chantix/Champix
Beginning in December 2008, purported class actions were filed against us in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Toronto Region), the Superior Court of Quebec (District of Montreal), the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Calgary, and the Superior Court of British Columbia (Vancouver Registry) on behalf of all individuals and third-party payers in Canada who have purchased and ingested Champix or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Champix. Each of these actions asserts claims under Canadian product liability law, including with respect to the safety and efficacy of Champix, and, on behalf of the putative class, seeks monetary relief, including punitive damages. In June 2012, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice certified the Ontario proceeding as a class action, defining the class as consisting of the following: (i) all persons in Canada who ingested Champix during the period from April 2, 2007 to May 31, 2010 and who experienced at least one of a number of specified neuropsychiatric adverse events; (ii) all persons who are entitled to assert claims in respect of Champix pursuant to Canadian legislation as the result of their relationship with a class member; and (iii) all health insurers who are entitled to assert claims in respect of Champix pursuant to Canadian legislation. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice certified the class against Pfizer Canada Inc. only and ruled that the action against Pfizer Inc. should be stayed until after the trial of the issues that are common to the class members. The actions in Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia have been stayed in favor of the Ontario action, which is proceeding on a national basis.

Bapineuzumab
In June 2010, a purported class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against Pfizer, as successor to Wyeth, and several former officers of Wyeth. The complaint alleges that Wyeth and the individual defendants violated federal securities laws by making or causing Wyeth to make false and misleading statements, and by failing to disclose or causing Wyeth to fail to disclose material information, concerning the results of a clinical trial involving bapineuzumab, a product in development for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The plaintiff seeks to represent a class consisting of all persons who purchased Wyeth securities from May 21, 2007 through July 2008 and seeks damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of the putative class. In February 2012, the court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. In December 2012, the court granted the plaintiff's motion to file an amended complaint. In April 2013, the court granted the defendants' motion to dismiss the amended complaint. In May 2013, the plaintiff appealed the District Court's decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.

Thimerosal
Wyeth was a defendant in a number of individual suits and purported class actions by or on behalf of vaccine recipients alleging that exposure through vaccines to cumulative doses of thimerosal, a preservative used in certain childhood vaccines formerly manufactured and distributed by Wyeth and other vaccine manufacturers, caused severe neurological damage and/or autism in children. In addition to the suits alleging injury from exposure to thimerosal, certain of the cases were brought by parents in their individual capacities for, among other things, loss of services and loss of consortium of the injured child. All of the actions against Wyeth have been dismissed, either by the courts or voluntarily by the plaintiffs.

The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (the Vaccine Act) requires that persons alleging injury from childhood vaccines first file a petition in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims asserting a vaccine-related injury. At the conclusion of that proceeding, petitioners may bring a lawsuit against the manufacturer in federal or state court, provided that they have satisfied certain procedural requirements. Also under the terms of the Vaccine Act, if a petition has not been adjudicated by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims within a specified time period after filing, the petitioner may opt out of the proceeding and pursue a lawsuit

40

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

against the manufacturer by following certain procedures. Claims brought by parents for, among other things, loss of services and loss of consortium of the injured child are not covered by the Vaccine Act.

In 2002, the Office of Special Masters of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims established an Omnibus Autism Proceeding with jurisdiction over petitions in which vaccine recipients claim to suffer from autism or autism spectrum disorder as a result of receiving thimerosal-containing childhood vaccines and/or the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Special masters of the court have heard six test cases on petitioners’ theories that either thimerosal-containing vaccines in combination with the MMR vaccine or thimerosal-containing vaccines alone can cause autism or autism spectrum disorder.
In February 2009, special masters of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims rejected the three cases brought on the theory that a combination of MMR and thimerosal-containing vaccines caused petitioners’ conditions. After these rulings were affirmed by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, two of them were appealed by petitioners to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. In 2010, the Federal Circuit affirmed the decisions of the special masters in both of these cases.
In March 2010, special masters of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims rejected the three additional test cases brought on the theory that thimerosal-containing vaccines alone caused petitioners’ conditions. Petitioners did not seek review by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims of the decisions of the special masters in these latter three test cases, and judgments were entered dismissing the cases in April 2010.
Petitioners in each of the six test cases have filed an election to bring a civil action.

Various Drugs: Co-Pay Programs
In July 2012, a purported class action was filed against Pfizer in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class consisting of all entities in the U.S. and its territories that have reimbursed patients for the purchase of certain Pfizer drugs for which co-pay programs exist or have existed. The plaintiffs allege that these programs violate the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) Act and federal antitrust law by, among other things, providing an incentive for patients to use certain Pfizer drugs rather than less-expensive competitor products, thereby increasing the payers’ reimbursement costs. The plaintiffs seek treble damages on behalf of the putative class for their excess reimbursement costs allegedly attributable to the co-pay programs, as well as an injunction prohibiting us from offering such programs. Similar purported class actions have been filed against several other pharmaceutical companies.

A3. Legal Proceedings––Commercial and Other Matters

Average Wholesale Price Litigation
Pfizer, certain of its subsidiaries and other pharmaceutical manufacturers are defendants in actions in various state courts by a number of states alleging that the defendants provided average wholesale price (AWP) information for certain of their products that was higher than the actual average prices at which those products were sold. The AWP is used to determine reimbursement levels under Medicare Part B and Medicaid and in many private-sector insurance policies and medical plans. The plaintiffs claim that the alleged spread between the AWPs at which purchasers were reimbursed and the actual sale prices was promoted by the defendants as an incentive to purchase certain of their products. In addition to suing on their own behalf, some of the plaintiff states seek to recover on behalf of individuals, private-sector insurance companies and medical plans in their states. These various actions allege, among other things, fraud, unfair competition, unfair trade practices and the violation of consumer protection statutes, and seek monetary and other relief, including civil penalties and treble damages.

Monsanto-Related Matters
In 1997, Monsanto Company (Former Monsanto) contributed certain chemical manufacturing operations and facilities to a newly formed corporation, Solutia Inc. (Solutia), and spun off the shares of Solutia. In 2000, Former Monsanto merged with Pharmacia & Upjohn Company to form Pharmacia Corporation (Pharmacia). Pharmacia then transferred its agricultural operations to a newly created subsidiary, named Monsanto Company (New Monsanto), which it spun off in a two-stage process that was completed in 2002. Pharmacia was acquired by Pfizer in 2003 and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer.

In connection with its spin-off that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities related to Pharmacia’s former agricultural business. New Monsanto is defending and indemnifying Pharmacia in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, the agricultural business.

In connection with its spin-off in 1997, Solutia assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, liabilities related to Former Monsanto's chemical businesses. As the result of its reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Solutia’s indemnification obligations related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses are limited to sites that Solutia has owned or

41

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

operated. In addition, in connection with its spinoff that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities primarily related to Former Monsanto's chemical businesses, including, but not limited to, any such liabilities that Solutia assumed. Solutia's and New Monsanto's assumption of and agreement to indemnify Pharmacia for these liabilities apply to pending actions and any future actions related to Former Monsanto's chemical businesses in which Pharmacia is named as a defendant, including, without limitation, actions asserting environmental claims, including alleged exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls. Solutia and New Monsanto are defending and indemnifying Pharmacia in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses.

Trade Secrets Action in California
In 2004, Ischemia Research and Education Foundation (IREF) and its chief executive officer brought an action in California Superior Court, Santa Clara County, against a former IREF employee and Pfizer. Plaintiffs allege that defendants conspired to misappropriate certain information from IREF’s allegedly proprietary database in order to assist Pfizer in designing and executing a clinical study of a Pfizer drug. In 2008, the jury returned a verdict for compensatory damages of approximately $38.7 million. In March 2009, the court awarded prejudgment interest, but declined to award punitive damages. In July 2009, the court granted our motion for a new trial and vacated the jury verdict. In February 2013, the trial court's decision was affirmed by the California Court of Appeal, Sixth Appellate District. In May 2013, the action was remanded for further proceedings to the California Superior Court, Santa Clara County.

Environmental Matters
In 2009, we submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a corrective measures study report with regard to Pharmacia Corporation's discontinued industrial chemical facility in North Haven, Connecticut and a revised site-wide feasibility study with regard to Wyeth Holdings Corporation's discontinued industrial chemical facility in Bound Brook, New Jersey. In September 2010, our corrective measures study report with regard to the North Haven facility was approved by the EPA, and we commenced construction of the site remedy in late 2011 under an Updated Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA. In July 2011, Wyeth Holdings Corporation finalized an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Removal Action with the EPA with regard to the Bound Brook facility. In May 2012, we completed construction of an interim remedy to address the discharge of impacted groundwater from that facility to the Raritan River. In September 2012, the EPA issued a final remediation plan for the Bound Brook facility's main plant area, which is generally in accordance with one of the remedies evaluated in our revised site-wide feasibility study. In March 2013, Wyeth Holdings Corporation entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent with the EPA to allow us to undertake detailed engineering design of the remedy for the main plant area and to perform a focused feasibility study for two adjacent lagoons. The estimated costs of the site remedy for the North Haven facility and the site remediation for the Bound Brook facility are covered by accruals previously taken by us.

We are a party to a number of other proceedings brought under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA or Superfund), and other state, local or foreign laws in which the primary relief sought is the cost of past and/or future remediation.

In October 2011, we voluntarily disclosed to the EPA potential non-compliance with certain provisions of the federal Clean Air Act at our Barceloneta, Puerto Rico manufacturing facility. We do not expect that any injunctive relief or penalties that may result from our voluntary disclosure will be material to Pfizer. Separately, in October 2012, the EPA issued an administrative complaint and penalty demand of $216,000 to resolve alleged non-compliance with similar provisions of the federal Clean Air Act that the EPA identified as part of its March 2010 inspection of the Barceloneta facility. We are in discussions with the EPA seeking to resolve these matters.

A4. Legal Proceedings––Government Investigations

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are subject to extensive regulation by national, state and local government agencies in the U.S. and in the other countries in which we operate. As a result, we have interactions with government agencies on an ongoing basis. It is possible that criminal charges and substantial fines and/or civil penalties could result from government investigations. Among the investigations by government agencies is the matter discussed below.

In 2009, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a civil complaint in intervention in two qui tam actions that had been filed under seal in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The complaint alleges that Wyeth’s practices relating to the pricing for Protonix for Medicaid rebate purposes between 2001 and 2006, prior to Wyeth's acquisition by Pfizer, violated the Federal Civil False Claims Act and federal common law. The two qui tam actions have been unsealed and the complaints

42

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

include substantially similar allegations. In addition, in 2009, several states and the District of Columbia filed a complaint under the same docket number asserting violations of various state laws based on allegations substantially similar to those set forth in the civil complaint filed by the DOJ. We are exploring with the DOJ various ways to resolve this matter.

A5. Legal Proceedings––Certain Matters Resolved During the First Nine Months of 2013

As previously reported, during the first nine months of 2013, certain matters, including those discussed below, were resolved or were the subject of definitive settlement agreements or settlement agreements-in-principle.

Protonix (pantoprazole sodium)
Wyeth has a license to market Protonix in the U.S. from Nycomed GmbH (Nycomed), which owns the patents relating to Protonix. Nycomed was acquired by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (Takeda) in 2011. The basic patent (including the six-month pediatric exclusivity period) for Protonix expired in January 2011.

In June 2013, Pfizer announced a settlement of Pfizer’s and Takeda’s patent-infringement action against Teva Pharmaceutical Industries and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (Sun) in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey that provides for the payment of a total of $2.15 billion by the two generic companies. In that action, Pfizer and Takeda sought compensation for damages resulting from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries’ and Sun’s “at-risk” launches of Protonix in the U.S. prior to the expiration of the basic patent. Pursuant to the settlement agreement: (i) Teva Pharmaceutical Industries agreed to pay Pfizer and Takeda a total of $800 million in 2013, of which $660 million has been paid to date, and an additional $800 million by October 2014, and (ii) Sun agreed to pay Pfizer and Takeda a total of $550 million, all of which has been paid. Pfizer is entitled to 64% and Takeda is entitled to 36% of the settlement proceeds.

Separately, Wyeth and Nycomed were defendants in purported class actions in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey that alleged violation of antitrust laws in connection with the procurement and enforcement of the patents for Protonix. These actions had been stayed pending resolution of the underlying patent litigation discussed above. In July 2013, after the settlement and dismissal of the underlying patent litigation, these purported class actions were dismissed with the consent of the parties.

Rebif
We have an exclusive collaboration agreement with EMD Serono, Inc. (Serono) to co-promote Rebif, a treatment for multiple sclerosis, in the U.S. In August 2011, Serono filed a complaint in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas seeking a declaratory judgment that we are not entitled to a 24-month extension of the Rebif co-promotion agreement, which otherwise would terminate at the end of 2013. We disagreed with Serono's interpretation of the agreement and believed that we have the right to extend the agreement to the end of 2015. In October 2011, the court sustained our preliminary objections and dismissed Serono’s complaint. In March 2013, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania affirmed the decision of the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas dismissing Serono’s complaint, thereby upholding our right to extend the Rebif co-promotion agreement to the end of 2015. In May 2013, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania denied Serono’s petition seeking reconsideration of the decision.

B. Guarantees and Indemnifications

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 the transaction or related to activities prior to the 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 paid significant amounts under these provisions and, as of September 29, 2013, recorded amounts for the estimated fair value of these indemnifications are not significant.

Pfizer Inc. has also guaranteed the long-term debt of certain companies that it acquired and that now are subsidiaries of Pfizer.

Note 13. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information

A. Segment Information

We manage our operations through four operating segments––Primary Care, Specialty Care and Oncology, Established Products and Emerging Markets, and Consumer Healthcare. Each operating segment has responsibility for its commercial

43

Table of Contents
PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

activities and for certain research and development activities related to in-line products and IPR&D projects that generally have achieved proof-of-concept.

We regularly review our segments and the approach used by management to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Generally, products are transferred to the Established Products unit in the beginning of the fiscal year following loss of patent protection or marketing exclusivity.

Operating Segments

Our chief operating decision maker uses the revenues and earnings of the four operating segments, among other factors, for performance evaluation and resource allocation. For the operating segments that comprise more than one business unit, a single segment manager has responsibility for those business units.

Other Costs and Business Activities
 
Certain costs are not allocated to our operating segment results, such as costs associated with the following:
Worldwide Research and Development, which is generally responsible for research projects until proof-of-concept is achieved and then for transitioning those projects to the appropriate business unit for possible clinical and commercial development. R&D spending may include upfront and milestone payments for intellectual property rights. This organization also has responsibility for certain science-based and other platform-services organizations, which provide technical expertise and other services to the various R&D projects. Worldwide Research and Development is also responsible for facilitating all regulatory submissions and interactions with regulatory agencies, including all safety-event activities.
Pfizer Medical, which is responsible for the provision of medical information to healthcare providers, patients and other parties, transparency and disclosure activities, clinical trial results publication, grants for healthcare quality improvement and medical education, partnerships with global public health and medical associations, regulatory inspection readiness reviews, internal audits of Pfizer-sponsored clinical trials and internal regulatory compliance processes.
Corporate, which is responsible for platform functions such as finance, global real estate operations, human resources, legal, compliance, science and technology, worldwide procurement, worldwide public affairs and policy and worldwide technology. These costs also include compensation costs and other miscellaneous operating expenses not charged to our operating segments, as well as interest income and expense.
Certain transactions and events such as (i) purchase accounting adjustments, where we incur expenses associated with the amortization of fair value adjustments to inventory, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment; (ii) acquisition-related activities, where we incur costs for restructuring, integration, implementation and executing the transaction; and (iii) certain significant items, which include non-acquisition-related restructuring costs, as well as costs incurred for legal settlements, asset impairments and disposals of assets or businesses, including, as applicable, any associated transition activities.

Segment Assets

We manage our assets on a total company basis, not by operating segment, as many of our operating assets are shared (such as our plant network assets) or commingled (such as accounts receivable, as many of our customers are served by multiple operating segments). Therefore, our chief operating decision maker does not regularly review any asset information by operating segment and, accordingly, we do not report asset information by operating segment. Total assets were approximately $176 billion as of September 29, 2013 and approximately $186 billion as of December 31, 2012.

(b) 
Revenues and Earnings from the Primary Care segment decreased in the three and nine months ended September 29, 2013 as compared to the prior year, and Earnings as a percentage of revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 also declined, primarily due to the loss of exclusivity for Lipitor in developed Europe and Australia; the subsequent shift in the reporting of Lipitor in those markets to the Established Products business unit; the losses of exclusivity of certain other products in various markets; lower Alliance revenues from Spiriva due to the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries; and the termination of the co-promotion agreement for Aricept in Japan in December 2012. Earnings as a percentage of revenues increased for the three months ended September 29, 2013 primarily due to market growth of Lyrica as well as mid-year price increases.
(c) 
Revenues from the Established Products and Emerging Markets segment decreased in the three and nine months ended September 29, 2013, and Earnings from the Established Products and Emerging Markets segment decreased in the nine months ended September 29, 2013, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to the continued erosion of branded Lipitor in the U.S. and Japan, partially offset by the addition of products in certain markets that shifted to the Established Products unit from other business units beginning January 1, 2013 and strong volume growth in China. Earnings as a percentage of revenue increased in the three months ended September 29, 2013 as compared to the prior year due to Lipitor and Norvasc growth in China. Earnings as a percentage of revenue decreased in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 as compared to the prior year due to the change in the mix of products.

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 September 29, 2013, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 29, 2013, and September 30, 2012. 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, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 28, 2013, 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, 2012, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)

OVERVIEW OF OUR PERFORMANCE, OPERATING ENVIRONMENT, STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK

Our Business

We apply science and our global resources to bring therapies to people that extend and significantly improve their lives through the discovery, development and manufacture of healthcare products. Our global portfolio includes medicines and vaccines, as well as many of the world’s best-known consumer healthcare products. We work across developed and emerging markets to advance wellness, prevention, treatments and cures that challenge the most feared diseases of our time. We collaborate with healthcare providers, governments and local communities to support and expand access to reliable, affordable healthcare around the world. Our revenues are derived from the sale of our products, as well as through alliance agreements, under which we co-promote products discovered by other companies (Alliance revenues).

On June 24, 2013, we completed the full disposition of our Animal Health business (Zoetis). The operating results of this business are reported as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. In addition, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, the assets and liabilities associated with this business are classified as Assets of discontinued operations and other assets held for sale and Liabilities of discontinued operations, as appropriate. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures and see the “Our Business Development Initiatives”, “Discontinued Operations” and “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections of this MD&A.

On November 30, 2012, we completed the sale of our Nutrition business. The operating results of this business are reported as Income from discontinued operations––net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures and see the “Our Business Development Initiatives” and “Discontinued Operations” sections of this MD&A.

Our 2013 Performance

Revenues in the third quarter of 2013 were $12.6 billion, a decrease of 2% compared to the same period in 2012, which reflects an operational decline of $38 million, or less than 1%. The operational decrease was primarily the result of:
the continued erosion for branded Lipitor in the U.S., developed Europe and certain other markets (approximately $239 million);
other product losses of exclusivity (approximately $276 million);
the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries (approximately $163 million); and
decreased government purchases of the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel in certain emerging markets (approximately $48 million),
partially offset by:
the growth of certain products, including Lyrica, Enbrel, Inlyta, Xalkori, Celebrex and Xeljanz (approximately $361 million) as well as various other biopharmaceutical products (approximately $162 million) in developed markets;
the overall growth in the rest of the Emerging Markets business unit (approximately $166 million), excluding the aforementioned decrease in the government purchases of the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel;
the overall growth in the Consumer Healthcare business unit (approximately $8 million); and
revenues from the transitional manufacturing and supply agreements with Zoetis (approximately $67 million).
In addition, Revenues were unfavorably impacted by foreign exchange by approximately $272 million, or 2%, in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Revenues in the first nine months of 2013 were $38.0 billion, a decrease of 7% compared to the same period in 2012, which reflects an operational decline of $1.9 billion, or 5%. The operational decrease was primarily the result of:

the continued erosion for branded Lipitor in the U.S., developed Europe and certain other markets (approximately $1.7 billion);
the loss of exclusivity for Geodon in March 2012 in the U.S (approximately $184 million);
other product losses of exclusivity (approximately $900 million);
the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries (approximately $341 million);
lower revenues from atorvastatin (approximately $162 million); and
decreased government purchases of the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel in certain emerging markets (approximately $130 million),
partially offset by:
the growth of certain products, including Lyrica, Enbrel, Inlyta, Celebrex, Xalkori and Xeljanz (approximately $1.0 billion) in developed markets;
the overall growth in the rest of the Emerging Markets business unit (approximately $493 million), excluding the aforementioned decrease in the government purchases of the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel;
the overall growth in the Consumer Healthcare business unit (approximately $127 million); and
revenues from the transitional manufacturing and supply agreements with Zoetis (approximately $67 million).
In addition, Revenues were unfavorably impacted by foreign exchange of approximately $793 million, or 2%, in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 was $2.6 billion, compared to $3.0 billion in the third quarter of 2012, primarily reflecting, among other items:
lower revenues, primarily due to the continued erosion of branded Lipitor in the U.S., developed Europe and certain other markets, other product losses of exclusivity, the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries, decreased government purchases of the Prevnar family of products in certain emerging markets and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange;
higher asset impairments and related charges (up approximately $429 million, pre-tax) (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Other (Income)/Deductions––Net” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net); and
a higher effective tax rate, primarily due to (i) a favorable settlement in 2012 with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to audits for multiple tax years; specifically, we recorded a tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion (representing tax and interest), as well as (ii) a tax benefit recorded for the resolution of foreign audits pertaining to multiple tax years (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Provision for Taxes on Income” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5. Tax Matters),
partially offset by:
lower net charges for legal matters (down approximately $726 million, pre-tax) (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Other (Income)/Deductions––Net” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net);
additional benefits generated from our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, partially offset by spending to support new product launches; and
the non-recurrence of a $250 million (pre-tax) payment to AstraZeneca in the third quarter of 2012 to obtain the exclusive over-the-counter rights to Nexium.
See also the “Discontinued Operations” section of this MD&A.

Table of Contents

Income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2013 was $8.8 billion compared to $7.5 billion in the first nine months of 2012, primarily reflecting, among other items:
patent litigation settlement income recorded in 2013 (approximately $1.3 billion, pre-tax) (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Other (Income)/Deductions––Net” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net);
lower net charges for other legal matters (down approximately $2.1 billion, pre-tax) (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Other (Income)/Deductions––Net” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net);
additional benefits generated from our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, partially offset by spending to support new product launches;
a gain recorded in 2013 (approximately $459 million, pre-tax) associated with the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China, Hisun Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (Hisun Pfizer) (see also the “Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity-Method Investments); and
lower amortization of intangible assets (down approximately $413 million, pre-tax),
partially offset by:
lower revenues, primarily due to the continued erosion for branded Lipitor in the U.S., developed Europe and certain other markets, other product losses of exclusivity, the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries, the loss of exclusivity for Geodon in the U.S, decreased government purchases of the Prevnar family of products in certain emerging markets and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange;
higher asset impairments and related charges (up approximately $444 million, pre-tax) (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Other (Income)/Deductions––Net” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions––Net); and
a higher effective tax rate, primarily due to (i) a favorable settlement in 2012 with the IRS related to audits for multiple tax years; specifically, we recorded a tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion (representing tax and interest), as well as (ii) a tax benefit recorded for the resolution of foreign audits pertaining to multiple tax years (see also the “Costs and Expenses––Provision for Taxes on Income” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5. Tax Matters).

Our Operating Environment

Industry-Specific Challenges

The majority of our revenues come from the manufacture and sale of biopharmaceutical products. As explained more fully in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, the biopharmaceutical industry is highly competitive and we face a number of industry-specific challenges, which can significantly impact our results. These factors include, among others: the loss or expiration of intellectual property rights and the expiration of co-promotion and licensing rights, pipeline productivity and the regulatory environment, pricing and access pressures and competition among branded products.

Intellectual Property Rights and Collaboration/Licensing Rights

The loss or expiration of intellectual property rights and the expiration of co-promotion and licensing rights can have a significant adverse effect on our revenues. Our 2013 financial guidance reflects the anticipated impact in 2013 of the loss of such rights as described below (see the “Our Financial Guidance for 2013” section of this MD&A for additional information).

Our financial results have been and/or will be adversely impacted by the following:
Lipitor in the U.S.––We lost exclusivity for Lipitor in the U.S. in November 2011. The entry of multi-source generic competition in the U.S. began in May 2012, with attendant increased competitive pressures.

55

Table of Contents

Lipitor in international markets––Lipitor lost exclusivity in Australia in April 2012 and most of developed Europe in March 2012 and May 2012, and now faces multi-source generic competition in those markets. Lipitor has lost exclusivity in all major markets.
Other recent loss of exclusivity impacts––In the U.S., we lost exclusivity for Geodon in March 2012 and Revatio tablet in September 2012. We lost exclusivity for Xalatan and Xalacom in the majority of European markets in January 2012 and Australia in July 2012. We lost exclusivity for Aricept in the majority of European markets in February 2012 and April 2012. Caduet lost exclusivity in the majority of European markets in March and May 2012. We lost exclusivity in the U.S. for Detrol IR in June 2012. Detrol IR and Detrol LA lost exclusivity in most European markets in September 2012. Viagra lost exclusivity in most major EU markets in June 2013. We lost exclusivity for Lyrica in Canada in February 2013.
Spiriva—Our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) for Spiriva expires on a country-by-country basis between 2012 and 2016, including the expiration in certain EU markets, Canada and Australia in early 2013 and in the U.S. and certain other EU markets in early 2014, which is adversely impacting our 2013 results. We expect to experience a graduated decline in revenues from Spiriva through 2016.
Aricept—Our rights to Aricept in Japan returned to Eisai Co., Ltd. in December 2012. The Aricept 23mg tablet lost exclusivity in the U.S. in July 2013.
Enbrel—Our U.S. and Canada collaboration agreement with Amgen Inc. for Enbrel expired on October 31, 2013. While we are entitled to royalties for 36 months thereafter, we expect that those royalties will be significantly less than our previous share of Enbrel profits from U.S. and Canada sales. In addition, while our share of the profits from this collaboration previously was included in Revenues, our royalties after October 31, 2013 will be included in Other (income)/deductions––net, in our consolidated statements of income. Outside the U.S. and Canada, our exclusive rights to Enbrel continue in perpetuity.
Rebif—Our collaboration agreement with EMD Serono Inc. to co-promote Rebif in the U.S. will expire at the end of 2015.

For additional information, including with regard to the expiration of the patents and of co-promotion and licensing rights for various products in the U.S., EU and Japan in 2013 and subsequent years, see the “Patents and Intellectual Property Rights” section of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the “The Loss or Expiration of Intellectual Property Rights” section of our 2012 Financial Report, which was filed as Exhibit 13 to our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

We will continue to aggressively defend our patent rights whenever we deem appropriate. For more detailed information about our significant products, see the discussion in the “Revenues––Selected Revenues from Biopharmaceutical Products” section of this MD&A. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A1. Commitments and Contingencies: Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation for a discussion of certain recent developments with respect to patent litigation.

Regulatory Environment/Pricing and Access––U.S. Healthcare Legislation

In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (together, the U.S. Healthcare Legislation, and also known as the Affordable Care Act or ACA), was enacted in the U.S. As explained more fully in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, this legislation has resulted in both current and longer-term impacts on us.

We recorded the following amounts as a result of the U.S. Healthcare Legislation:
$133 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $179 million in the third quarter of 2012, and $364 million in the first nine months of 2013 and $413 million in the first nine months of 2012, recorded as a reduction to Revenues, related to the higher, extended and expanded rebate provisions and the Medicare “coverage gap” discount provision; and
$78 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $75 million in the third quarter of 2012, and $209 million in the first nine months of 2013 and $256 million in the first nine months of 2012, recorded in Selling, informational and administrative expenses, related to the fee payable to the federal government (which is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes) based on our prior-calendar-year share relative to other companies of branded prescription drug sales to specified government programs.

Regulatory Environment/Pricing and Access––Certain Other U.S. Federal Government Matters

In August 2011, the federal Budget Control Act of 2011 (the Budget Control Act) was enacted in the U.S. The Budget Control Act includes provisions to raise the U.S. Treasury Department's borrowing limit, known as the debt ceiling, and provisions to reduce the federal deficit by $2.4 trillion between 2012 and 2021. Initial deficit-reduction targets included $900 billion of discretionary spending reductions associated with the Department of Health and Human Services and various agencies charged with national security, but those discretionary spending reductions did not include programs such as Medicare and Medicaid or direct changes to pharmaceutical pricing, rebates or discounts. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) was responsible for identifying the remaining $1.5 trillion of deficit reductions, which were divided evenly between defense and non-defense spending. Under this OMB review process, Social Security, Medicaid, Veteran Benefits and certain other spending categories were excluded from consideration, but reductions in payments to Medicare providers were made, although these reductions were prohibited by law from exceeding 2% of the originally budgeted amount. Additionally, certain payments to Medicare Part D plans, such as low-income subsidy payments, were exempt from reduction as was all patient cost-sharing under Medicare. As a result, we do not expect that the Budget Control Act will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. However, any significant spending reductions affecting Medicare, Medicaid or other publicly funded or subsidized health programs that may be implemented, and/or any significant additional taxes or fees that may be imposed on us, as part of any broader deficit-reduction effort or legislative replacement for the Budget Control Act could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

After the U.S. federal debt ceiling was reached on May 19, 2013 and after measures taken by the U.S. Treasury Department to enable the U.S. federal government to continue meeting its financial obligations were nearly exhausted, on October 16, 2013, legislation was enacted that (i) ended the partial shutdown of the U.S. federal government and provided funding for U.S. federal government operations through January 15, 2014, and (ii) increased the U.S. federal debt ceiling through February 7, 2014 and preserved the ability of the U.S. Treasury Department to use “extraordinary measures” to avoid a default on U.S. federal government debt for a few months thereafter. If, after the expiration of those respective periods, the U.S. federal government fails to provide funding to avoid a partial or total shutdown of its operations and/or fails to suspend enforcement of or to increase the debt ceiling, and if, as a result, the U.S. federal government is unable to conduct drug review and approval activities or satisfy its financial obligations, including under Medicare, Medicaid and other publicly funded or subsidized health programs, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Pricing and Access––Increasing Pressures to Reduce Healthcare Cost Growth Rates in the U.S.

As the healthcare cost growth rate in the U.S. continues to outpace inflation, cost-reduction and access pressures are increasing in intensity. Containing entitlement spending, including Medicare and Medicaid, is a major focus of deficit-reduction efforts. The ACA, which expanded the role of the U.S. government as a healthcare payer, is accelerating changes in the U.S. healthcare marketplace, and the potential for additional pricing and access pressures continues to be significant. Some employers, seeking to avoid the tax on high-cost health insurance in the ACA imposed in 2018, are already scaling back healthcare benefits.

Overall, there is increasing pressure on U.S. providers to deliver healthcare at a lower cost and to ensure that those expenditures deliver demonstrated value in terms of health outcomes. Longer term, we are seeing a shift in focus away from fee-for-service payments towards outcomes-based payments and risk-sharing arrangements that reward providers for cost reductions. These new payment models can, at times, lead to lower prices for, and restricted access to, new medicines. At the same time, these models can also expand utilization by encouraging physicians to screen, diagnose and treat-to-goal.

In response to the evolving U.S. and global healthcare spending landscape, we are continuing to work with health authorities, health technology assessment and quality measurement bodies and major U.S. payers throughout the product-development process to better understand how these entities value our compounds and products. Further, we are seeking to develop stronger internal capabilities focused on demonstrating the value of the medicines that we discover or develop, register and manufacture, by recognizing patterns of usage of our medicines and competitor medicines along with patterns of healthcare costs.

The Global Economic Environment

In addition to the industry-specific factors discussed above, and as explained more fully in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we, like other businesses, continue to face the effects of the challenging economic environment, which have impacted our biopharmaceutical operations in the U.S. and Europe, including the countries that use the euro, and in a number of emerging markets.

Table of Contents

We believe that patients, experiencing the effects of the challenging economic environment, including high unemployment levels, and increases in co-pays, sometimes switch to generic products, delay treatments, skip doses or use less effective treatments to reduce their costs. Challenging economic conditions in the U.S. also have increased the number of patients in the Medicaid program, under which sales of pharmaceuticals are subject to substantial rebates and, in many states, to formulary restrictions limiting access to brand-name drugs, including ours. In addition, we continue to experience pricing pressure in various markets around the world, including in developed European markets, Japan and in a number of emerging markets, with government-mandated reductions in prices for certain biopharmaceutical products and government-imposed access restrictions in certain countries. In addition, some government agencies and third-party payers use health technology assessments in ways that, at times, lead to lower prices for and restricted access to new medicines.
We continue to monitor developments regarding government and government agency receivables in several European markets where economic conditions remain challenging and uncertain. Historically, payments from a number of these European governments and government agencies extend beyond the contractual terms of sale, with no significant changes in the year-over-year trend. For further discussion about our Accounts Receivable, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.
Significant portions of our revenues and earnings are exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk in part through operational means, including managing 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. As we operate in multiple foreign currencies, including the euro, the Japanese yen, the U.K. pound, the Chinese renminbi, the Canadian dollar and approximately 100 other currencies, changes in those currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will impact our revenues and expenses. If the U.S. dollar weakens against a specific foreign currency, our revenues will increase, having a positive impact, and our overall expenses will increase, having a negative impact, on net income. Likewise, if the U.S. dollar strengthens against a specific foreign currency, our revenues will decrease, having a negative impact, and our overall expenses will decrease, having a positive impact on net income. Therefore, significant changes in foreign exchange rates can impact our results and our financial guidance.
On February 13, 2013, the Venezuelan government devalued its currency from a rate of 4.3 to 6.3 of Venezuelan currency to the U.S. dollar. We incurred a foreign currency loss of $80 million immediately on the devaluation as a result of remeasuring the local balance sheets, and we have experienced and will continue to experience ongoing adverse impacts to earnings as our revenues and expenses will be translated into U.S. dollars at lower rates. We cannot predict whether there will be further devaluations of the Venezuelan currency or devaluations of any other currencies.

Despite the challenging financial markets, Pfizer maintains a strong financial position. Due to our significant operating cash flows, financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we continue to believe that we have the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. Our long-term debt is rated high quality by both Standard & Poor’s (S&P) and Moody’s Investors Service. As market conditions change, we continue to monitor our liquidity position. We have taken and will continue to take a conservative approach to our financial investments. Both short-term and long-term investments consist primarily of high-quality, highly liquid, well-diversified, available-for-sale debt securities. For further discussion of our financial condition, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.

These and other industry-wide factors that may affect our businesses should be considered along with information presented in the “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” section of this MD&A; in Part II, Item 1A., “Risk Factors”, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Our Strategy

We believe that our medicines provide significant value for both healthcare providers and patients, not only from the improved treatment of diseases but also from a reduction in other healthcare costs, such as emergency room or hospitalization costs, as well as improvements in health, wellness and productivity. We continue to actively engage in dialogues about the value of our products and how we can best work with patients, physicians and payers to prevent and treat disease and improve outcomes. We continue to work within the current legal and pricing structures, as well as continue to review our pricing arrangements and contracting methods with payers, to maximize access to patients and minimize any adverse impact on our revenues. We remain firmly committed to fulfilling our company's purpose of innovating to bring therapies to patients that significantly improve their lives. By doing so, we expect to create value for the patients we serve and for our shareholders.

Commercial Operations
We currently manage our commercial operations through four operating segments––Primary Care, Specialty Care and Oncology, Established Products and Emerging Markets, and Consumer Healthcare. For additional information about our current operating structure, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 13A. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information: Segment Information.
On July 29, 2013, we announced plans to internally create a new global commercial organization structure. Beginning in fiscal 2014, we will manage our commercial operations through three businesses––the Global Innovative Pharmaceutical Business (GIP); the Global Vaccines, Oncology and Consumer Healthcare Business (VOC); and the Global Established Pharmaceutical Business (GEP).
A significant change effected by this new structure is the full integration of emerging markets into each business. Emerging markets are an important component of our strategy for global leadership, and our new structure recognizes that the demographics and rising economic power of the fastest-growing emerging markets are becoming more closely aligned with the profile found within developed markets.
Some additional information about each product grouping:
Global Innovative Pharmaceutical Business––GIP will generally comprise medicines within several therapeutic areas that are expected to have market exclusivity beyond 2015, as well as Enbrel. These therapeutic areas include immunology and inflammation, cardiovascular/metabolic, neuroscience and pain, rare diseases and women's/men's health.
Global Vaccines, Oncology and Consumer Healthcare Business––VOC will focus on the development of vaccines and products for oncology and consumer healthcare. Each of the three businesses comprising this group will operate as a separate, global business, requiring distinct specialization in terms of the science, talent and market approach necessary to deliver value to consumers and patients.
Global Established Pharmaceutical Business––GEP will include the brands that have lost market exclusivity and, generally, the mature, patent-protected products that are expected to lose exclusivity through 2015 in most major markets. Additionally, GEP will include our biosimilars portfolio and current and future established products initiatives, such as our existing agreements with Mylan in Japan, Hisun in China and Teuto in Brazil.

The GIP and VOC biopharmaceutical portfolios of innovative, largely patent-protected, in-line products will be sustained by ongoing internal investments and targeted business development designed to maximize the value of our in-line products and ensure a robust pipeline of highly-differentiated product candidates in areas of unmet medical need. In addition, VOC will include our Consumer Healthcare business, which manufactures and markets several well-known brands. The assets to be managed by these groups are science-driven, highly differentiated and generally require a high-level of engagement with healthcare providers and consumers.
GEP will be expected to generate strong consistent cash flow by providing patients around the world with access to effective, lower-cost, high-value treatments. GEP will leverage our experience in biologic development, manufacturing and commercialization.
These changes will not be implemented until 2014 to allow for the necessary internal transition process. Beginning with our first-quarter 2014 financial results, we will provide greater financial transparency into our new businesses.
Research Operations
We continue to transform our global research and development organization and pursue strategies intended to improve innovation and overall productivity in R&D with the goal of building a sustainable pipeline that will deliver value in the near term and over time.
Our R&D priorities include delivering a pipeline of differentiated therapies with the greatest scientific and commercial promise, innovating new capabilities that can position Pfizer for long-term leadership and creating new models for biomedical collaboration that will expedite the pace of innovation and the system's overall productivity. As such, our research primarily focuses on five high-priority areas that have a mix of small molecules and large molecules––immunology and inflammation; oncology; cardiovascular and metabolic diseases; neuroscience and pain; and vaccines. Other areas of focus include rare diseases and biosimilars.

59

Table of Contents

While a significant portion of R&D is done internally, we continue to seek to expand our pipeline by entering into agreements with other companies to develop, license or acquire promising compounds, technologies or capabilities. Collaboration, alliance and license agreements and acquisitions allow us to capitalize on these compounds to expand our pipeline of potential future products. In addition, collaborations and alliances allow us to share risk and to access external scientific and technological expertise.

For additional information about current and recent restructuring activities, see the “Costs and Expenses––Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A.
For additional information about recent transactions and strategic investments that we believe advance our pipeline and maximize the value of our in-line products, see the “Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A.
Business Development
We continue to build on our broad portfolio of businesses and to expand our R&D pipeline through various business development transactions. For additional information about recent transactions and strategic investments that we believe advance our pipeline and maximize the value of our in-line products, see the “Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A.
Intellectual Property Rights
We continue to aggressively defend our patent rights against increasingly aggressive infringement whenever appropriate, and we will continue to support efforts that strengthen worldwide recognition of patent rights while taking necessary steps to ensure appropriate patient access.
In addition, we will continue to employ innovative approaches designed to prevent counterfeit pharmaceuticals from entering the supply chain and to achieve greater control over the distribution of our products, and we will continue to participate in the generics market for our products, whenever appropriate, once they lose exclusivity.
For additional information about our current efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A1. Commitments and Contingencies: Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation.
Capital and Expense Management
We seek to maintain a strong balance sheet and robust liquidity so that we continue to have the financial resources necessary to take advantage of prudent commercial, research and business development opportunities and to directly enhance shareholder value through dividends and share repurchases. For additional information about our financial condition, liquidity, capital resources, share purchases and dividends, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.
We remain focused on achieving an appropriate cost structure for the Company. For additional information about our cost-reduction and productivity initiatives, see the “Costs and Expenses-Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A.

Our Business Development Initiatives

We are committed to capitalizing on growth opportunities by advancing our own pipeline and maximizing the value of our in-line products, as well as through various forms of business development, which can include alliances, licenses, joint ventures, dispositions and acquisitions. We view our business development activity as an enabler of our strategies, and we seek to generate profitable revenue growth and enhance shareholder value by pursuing a disciplined, strategic and financial approach to evaluating business development opportunities. We are especially interested in opportunities in our high-priority therapeutic areas––immunology and inflammation; oncology; cardiovascular and metabolic diseases; neuroscience and pain; and vaccines––and in emerging markets and established products. Other areas of focus include rare diseases and biosimilars. We assess our businesses and assets as part of our regular, ongoing portfolio review process and also continue to consider business development activities for our businesses.

The more significant recent transactions and events are described below:
Collaboration with Eli Lilly & Company (Lilly)––In October 2013, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Lilly to jointly develop and globally commercialize tanezumab, which provides that Pfizer and Lilly will equally share product-development expenses as well as potential revenues and certain product-related costs. The tanezumab program currently is subject to a partial clinical hold by the FDA pending submission of nonclinical data to the FDA. We anticipate submitting that data in the first half of 2014. Under the agreement with Lilly, we are eligible to receive certain payments from Lilly upon the achievement of specified clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones, including an upfront payment of $200 million that is contingent upon the parties continuing in the collaboration after receipt of the FDA’s response to the submission of the nonclinical data. Both Pfizer and Lilly have the right to terminate the agreement under certain conditions.
ViiV Healthcare Limited (ViiV)––On August 12, 2013, the FDA approved Tivicay (dolutegravir), a product for the treatment of HIV-1 infection developed by ViiV, an equity-method investee. This approval triggered a reduction in our interest in ViiV from 13.5% to 12.6% and an increase in GlaxoSmithKline plc's equity interest in ViiV from 76.5% to 77.4% effective October 1, 2013. As a result, in the third quarter of 2013, we recognized a loss of approximately $31 million in Other (income)/deductions––net. We continue to account for our investment in ViiV under the equity method due to the significant influence that we continue to have through our board representation and minority veto rights. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity Method Investments.
On October 31, 2012, ViiV acquired the remaining 50% of Shionogi-ViiV Healthcare LLC, its equity-method investee, from Shionogi & Co., Ltd. (Shionogi) in consideration for a 10% interest in ViiV (newly issued shares) and contingent consideration in the form of future royalties.
Zoetis––On June 24, 2013, we completed the full disposition of our Animal Health business (Zoetis). The full disposition was completed through a series of steps, including the formation of Zoetis, an initial public offering (IPO) of an approximate 19.8% interest in Zoetis and an exchange offer for the remaining 80.2% interest. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.
Collaboration with Merck & Co., Inc. (Merck)––On April 29, 2013, we announced that we entered into a worldwide, except Japan, collaboration agreement with Merck for the development and commercialization of Pfizer's ertugliflozin (PF-04971729), an investigational oral sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) inhibitor currently in Phase 3 development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2C. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Collaborative Arrangement.
Hisun Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (Hisun Pfizer)––On September 6, 2012, we and Zhejiang Hisun Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. formed a new company, Hisun Pfizer, to develop, manufacture, market and sell pharmaceutical products, primarily branded generic products, predominately in China. On January 1, 2013, we contributed assets constituting a business to this 49%-owned equity-method investment and recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $459 million in Other (income)/deductions––net. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity-Method Investments.
Nutrition Business––On November 30, 2012, we completed the sale of our Nutrition business to Nestlé for $11.85 billion in cash. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

NextWave Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (Next Wave)––On November 27, 2012, we completed our acquisition of NextWave, a privately held, specialty pharmaceutical company. As a result of the acquisition, we now hold exclusive North American rights to Quillivant XR™ (methylphenidate hydrochloride), the first once-daily liquid medication approved in the U.S. for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The total consideration for the acquisition was approximately $442 million, which consisted of upfront payments to NextWave's shareholders of approximately $278 million and contingent consideration with an estimated acquisition-date fair value of approximately $164 million. In the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, as a result of lowered commercial forecasts, the fair value of the contingent consideration decreased and we recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $128 million and $109 million, respectively, in Other (income)/deductions––net. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2A. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Acquisitions.
Nexium Over-the Counter Rights––On August 13, 2012, we announced that we entered into an agreement with AstraZeneca for the exclusive, global, over-the-counter (OTC) rights for Nexium, a leading prescription drug currently approved to treat the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease. We made an upfront payment of $250 million to AstraZeneca, and AstraZeneca is eligible to receive milestone payments of up to $550 million based on product launches and level of sales as well as royalty payments based on sales. In June 2013, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the European Medicines Agency issued a positive opinion recommending that the European Commission approve 'Nexium Control' OTC for the short-term treatment of reflux symptoms (including heartburn and acid regurgitation in adults). A new drug application submission for Nexium OTC in the U.S. in a 20mg delayed-release capsule was accepted for review by the FDA in the first half of 2013.
Biocon Alliance––On March 12, 2012, Biocon and Pfizer announced the conclusion of their October 18, 2010 alliance to commercialize Biocon’s biosimilar versions of insulin and insulin analog products. The companies agreed that, due to the individual priorities for their respective biosimilars businesses, each company would move forward independently.
Alacer Corp. (Alacer)––On February 26, 2012, we completed our acquisition of Alacer, a company that manufactures, markets and distributes Emergen-C, a line of effervescent, powdered drink mix vitamin supplements that is the largest-selling branded vitamin C line in the U.S. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2A. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Acquisitions.
Ferrosan Holding A/S (Ferrosan)––On December 1, 2011, we completed our acquisition of the consumer healthcare business of Ferrosan, a Danish company engaged in the sale of science-based consumer healthcare products, including dietary supplements and lifestyle products, primarily in the Nordic region and the emerging markets of Russia and Central and Eastern Europe. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2A. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Acquisitions.

Biopharmaceutical Revenues
 
Worldwide revenues from biopharmaceutical products were $11.7 billion for the third quarter of 2013 and $35.4 billion for the first nine months of 2013, reflecting decreases of 3% and 8%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting, among other things:
a decrease in operational revenues of approximately $481 million in the third quarter and $2.5 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to the loss of exclusivity of various products in certain markets, including a decrease in operational revenues from branded Lipitor of $239 million in the third quarter and $1.7 billion in the first nine months of 2013;
lower operational Alliance revenues of approximately $250 million in the third quarter and $631 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, from Spiriva due to the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries, and from Aricept due to the loss of exclusivity in the majority of European markets and the return of our rights to Aricept in Japan to Eisai Co., Ltd., partially offset by an increase of approximately $40 million in the third quarter and $164 million in the first nine months of 2013 in operational Alliance revenues from Enbrel;
a decrease in operational revenues of approximately $162 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, due to multi-source generic competition in the U.S. for atorvastatin beginning in late-May 2012; and
a decrease in operational revenues of approximately $48 million in the third quarter and $130 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to decreased government purchases of the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel in certain emerging markets,
partially offset by:
an increase in operational revenues of approximately $186 million in the third quarter and $595 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to continued growth in developed markets of certain biopharmaceutical products, particularly Lyrica, Inlyta and Xalkori; and
an increase in operational revenues of approximately $166 million in the third quarter and $493 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to continued growth in the Emerging Markets unit related to various products.
The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange on biopharmaceutical revenues of $271 million in the third quarter and $782 million in the first nine months of 2013, or 2% in both periods, also contributed to a decrease in biopharmaceutical revenues.

Geographically,
in the U.S., revenues from biopharmaceutical products were relatively flat in the third quarter of 2013 and decreased 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting, among other things:
lower revenues from Lipitor, Revatio and Geodon, all due to loss of exclusivity (down approximately $188 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $918 million in the first nine months of 2013);
lower revenues from Spiriva, reflecting the final-year terms of our Spiriva co-promotion agreement in the U.S. (down approximately $124 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $211 million in the first nine months of 2013);
lower revenues from atorvastatin (down approximately $162 million in the first nine months of 2013);
lower revenues from Prevnar 13, due to decreased government purchases (down approximately $86 million in the first nine months of 2013); and
lower revenues from Zosyn (down approximately $48 million in the first nine months of 2013),
partially offset by:
the strong performance of certain other biopharmaceutical products, including Lyrica, Celebrex, Xeljanz, Inlyta and Xalkori (up approximately $209 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $521 million in the first nine months of 2013).
in our international markets, revenues from biopharmaceutical products decreased 5% in the third quarter and decreased 9% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Operationally, revenues decreased 1% in the third quarter of 2013 and 5% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting, among other things:
lower revenues for Lipitor and Xalatan/Xalacom (down approximately $152 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $1.3 billion in the first nine months of 2013) due to the loss of exclusivity of Lipitor in developed Europe, Japan and Australia, and Xalatan/Xalacom in the majority of European markets and in Australia; lower revenues for Viagra, (down approximately $48 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $72 million in the first nine months of 2013)

Table of Contents

primarily due to loss of exclusivity in most major markets in Europe; and lower revenues for Aricept (direct sales) (down approximately $18 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $75 million in the first nine months of 2013) due to the loss of exclusivity in certain markets;
lower Alliance revenues (down approximately $110 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $372 million in the first nine months of 2013), primarily due to the loss of exclusivity of Aricept in many major European markets, the return of our rights to Aricept in Japan to Eisai Co., Ltd., and lower revenues for Spiriva in certain European countries, Canada and Australia (where the Spiriva collaboration has terminated); and
lower revenues for the Prevnar family of products and Enbrel, (down approximately $48 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $130 million in the first nine months of 2013) due to decreased government purchases in certain emerging markets,
partially offset by:
higher revenues for Lyrica, and new product growth from Inlyta and Xalkori, (collectively, approximately $104 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $346 million in the first nine months of 2013).
The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange on international biopharmaceutical revenues of 4% in both the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013 also contributed to the decrease in revenues from biopharmaceutical products in our international markets.
During the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, international revenues from biopharmaceutical products represented 59.6% and 60.4% of total revenues from biopharmaceutical products, compared to 60.6% and 61.1% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, respectively.

Primary Care Operating Segment
Primary Care unit revenues decreased 10% in the third quarter of 2013 and 16% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting lower operational revenues of 8% and 14% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, respectively, primarily due to:
the loss of exclusivity of Lipitor and the resulting shift in the reporting of Lipitor revenues in developed Europe and Australia to the Established Products unit beginning January 1, 2013, as well as the loss of exclusivity of certain other products in various markets, including Viagra in most major markets in Europe in June 2013 and Lyrica in Canada in February 2013;
the termination of the co-promotion agreement for Aricept in Japan in December 2012; and
in the U.S. and certain European countries, the co-promotion collaboration for Spiriva is in its final year, which per the terms of the collaboration agreement, has resulted in a decline in Pfizer's share of Spiriva revenues; and in Australia, Canada and certain other European countries, the Spiriva collaboration has terminated,
partially offset by:
the strong performance of Celebrex, Chantix and Pristiq in the U.S., as well as Lyrica.

The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 2% in both the third quarter of 2013 and the first nine months of 2013, also contributed to the decrease in Primary Care unit revenues.

Collectively, the decline in revenues in developed markets for Lipitor and for certain other Primary Care unit products that lost exclusivity in various markets in 2012, as well as the resulting shift in the reporting of certain product revenues to the Established Products unit, reduced Primary Care unit revenues by approximately $584 million, or 16%, in comparison with the third quarter of 2012, and reduced Primary Care unit revenues by approximately $2.3 billion, or 20%, in comparison with the first nine months of 2012.

Specialty Care and Oncology Operating Segment
Specialty Care unit revenues decreased 2% in the third quarter of 2013 and 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting a decrease in operational revenues of 1% and 4% in the third quarter of 2013 and in the first nine months of 2013, primarily due to:
the loss of exclusivity and the resulting shift in the reporting of Geodon and Revatio revenues in the U.S. and Xalabrands revenues in developed Europe and Australia to the Established Product unit beginning January 1, 2013,
largely offset by:
the growth of Enbrel and Xeljanz in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013.

66

Table of Contents

The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 1% in the third quarter of 2013 and 2% in the first nine months of 2013 also contributed to the decrease in Specialty Care unit revenues.
Collectively, products that lost exclusivity, as well as the resulting shift in the reporting of certain product revenues to the Established Products unit, reduced Specialty Care unit revenues by $185 million, or 5%, in comparison with the third quarter of 2012, and reduced Specialty Care unit revenues by approximately $762 million, or 7%, in comparison with the first nine months of 2012.
Oncology unit revenues increased 24% in the third quarter of 2013 and 25% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting higher operational revenues of 26% and 28% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, respectively, due to:
the recent launches of new products, most notably Inlyta and Xalkori in several major markets,
partially offset by:
the decline in Sutent revenues in the EU and Japan, due to increased competition and cost-containment measures in those markets, as well as some conversion from Sutent to Inlyta in Japan due to a broader label for Inlyta in Japan, which overlaps with the Sutent indication.

Inlyta’s market share continues to increase as patient feedback has been positive both in terms of efficacy and tolerability, and as pricing and reimbursement are being granted in developed Europe. Xalkori prescriptions and new patient starts also continue to increase, driven by initiatives established to improve molecular testing and identify the appropriate patients for this medicine.
The operational increases in Oncology unit revenues were partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 2% and 3% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, respectively.

Established Products and Emerging Markets Operating Segment
Established Products unit revenues decreased 4% in the third quarter of 2013 and 11% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting a decrease in operational revenues of 1% and 8% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, respectively, primarily due to:
the continued erosion of branded Lipitor in the U.S, and Japan,
partially offset by:
revenues from products in certain markets that were shifted to the Established Products unit from other business units beginning January 1, 2013, including Lipitor in developed Europe and Australia; and
the contribution from the collaboration with Mylan Inc. to market generic drugs in Japan.
The unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 3% in both the third quarter of 2013 and in the first nine months of 2013 also contributed to the decrease in Established Products unit revenues.
Emerging Markets unit revenues increased 2% in both the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to higher operational revenues of 5% in both the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, due to:
volume growth in China, most notably Lipitor, Norvasc and Sulperazon,
partially offset by:
the impact of the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China in the first quarter of 2013; and
decreased government purchases of Prevenar and Enbrel, as well as government cost-containment measures, in certain emerging markets.
The operational increases in Emerging Markets unit revenues were partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of 3% in both the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013.
Total revenues from established products in both the Established Products and Emerging Markets units were $3.3 billion, with $1.0 billion generated in emerging markets, in the third quarter of 2013, and were $10.1 billion, with $3.1 billion generated in emerging markets, in the first nine months of 2013.

Consumer Healthcare Operating Segment
Consumer Healthcare unit revenues increased 1% in the third quarter of 2013 and 5% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting higher operational revenues of 1% and 5% in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013, respectively, due to:
strong international growth for Centrum as a result of several recent product launches;
increased promotional activities in key markets; and
the growth of Emergen-C in the U.S. due to expanded distribution and promotional activities,
partially offset by:
declines in sales of respiratory and other products in certain international markets due to unfavorable seasonal conditions compared to the same periods in 2012.

Rebates and Chargebacks

As is typical in the biopharmaceutical industry, our gross product sales are subject to a variety of deductions, that generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized and primarily represent rebates and discounts to government agencies, wholesalers, distributors and managed care organizations with respect to our pharmaceutical products. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations and, as such, judgment and knowledge of market conditions and practice are required when estimating the impact of these sales deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. Historically, our adjustments to actual results have not been material to our overall business. On a quarterly basis, our adjustments to actual results generally have been less than 1% of biopharmaceutical net sales and can result in either a net increase or a net decrease in income. Product-specific rebate charges, however, can have a significant impact on year-over-year individual product growth trends.

(a) 
Rebates are product-specific and, therefore, for any given year are impacted by the mix of products sold.
(b) 
Performance-based contract rebates include contract rebates with managed care customers within the U.S., including health maintenance organizations and pharmacy benefit managers, who receive rebates based on the achievement of contracted performance terms and claims under these contracts. Outside of the U.S., performance-based contract rebates include rebates to wholesalers/distributors based on achievement of contracted performance for specific products or sales milestones.
(c) 
Chargebacks primarily represent reimbursements to wholesalers for honoring contracted prices to third parties.
(d) 
Sales allowances primarily represent pharmaceutical rebates, discounts and price reductions that are contractual or legislatively mandated outside of the U.S.

The total rebates and chargebacks for the third quarter of 2013 increased compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of:
an increase in performance-based contract rebates in the U.K. and China as a result of competitive factors and contract arrangements;
an increase in Medicare rebates driven by increased volume; and
an increase in chargebacks for our branded products as a result of increasing competitive pressures,
partially offset by:
a decrease in sales chargebacks for certain products that have lost exclusivity.


68

Table of Contents

The total rebates and chargebacks for the first nine months of 2013 decreased compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of:
the impact of decreased Medicaid rebates for certain products that have lost exclusivity; and
a decrease in sales chargebacks for certain products that have lost exclusivity,
partially offset by:
an increase in chargebacks for our branded products as a result of increasing competitive pressures;
an increase in performance-based contract rebates in a number of European markets and China as a result of competitive factors and contract arrangements; and
changes in product mix.

Our accruals for Medicaid rebates, Medicare rebates, performance-based contract rebates, sales allowances and chargebacks were $3.3 billion as of September 29, 2013, and $3.8 billion as of December 31, 2012, and substantially all are included in Other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Biopharmaceutical––Selected Product Descriptions

Lyrica is indicated in the U.S. for three neuropathic pain conditions, fibromyalgia and adjunctive therapy for adult patients with partial onset seizures. In certain countries outside the U.S., indications include neuropathic pain (peripheral and central), fibromyalgia, adjunctive treatment of epilepsy and generalized anxiety disorder. Worldwide revenues for Lyrica increased 10% in both the third quarter of 2013 and in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to volume growth, including increased demand for the neuropathic pain indication in Japan.
In the U.S., revenues increased 18% in the third quarter of 2013 and 17% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Notwithstanding these increases, U.S. revenues continue to be affected by increased competition from generic versions of competitive medicines, as well as managed care pricing and formulary pressures.
Internationally, Lyrica revenues increased 3% in the third quarter of 2013 and 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, with the growth due to a focus on enhancing diagnosis and treatment rates of neuropathic back pain and expediting the identification and appropriate treatment of generalized anxiety disorder in the EU, and physician education regarding neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia in Japan. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on international revenues of 3% in both the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.
Prevnar family of products consists of Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13 and Prevnar/Prevenar (7-valent), our pneumococcal conjugate vaccines for the prevention of various syndromes of pneumococcal disease. Overall, worldwide revenues for the Prevnar family of products increased 1% for the third quarter of 2013 and decreased 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.
In the U.S., revenues for the Prevnar family of products increased 7% in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, mainly due to price increases and an inventory build by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) in the third quarter of 2013, partially offset by lower demand related to lower birth rates, lower rates of children receiving the final dose of the approved dosing schedule, and stronger CDC inventory management procedures. Revenues in the U.S. for the Prevnar family of products decreased 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, due to inventory sell-through in the public and private markets and lower demand, as described above.
Internationally, revenues for the Prevnar family of products decreased 4% in the third quarter of 2013, and decreased 5% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to lower purchases in Turkey, the end of the catch-up program in Australia/New Zealand and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
We currently are conducting the Community-Acquired Pneumonia Immunization Trial in Adults (CAPiTA) to fulfill requirements in connection with the FDA’s approval of the Prevnar 13 adult indication under its accelerated approval program. CAPiTA is an efficacy trial involving subjects 65 years of age and older that is designed to evaluate whether Prevnar 13 is effective in preventing the first episode of community-acquired pneumonia caused by the serotypes contained in the vaccine. Case accrual for this event-driven trial was completed in late August 2013. In view of the size of the study, it will take several months to complete the necessary database validation and related activities prior to unblinding the study and reporting the topline results. We expect to report the topline results in early 2014. At its regular meeting held on February 22, 2012, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) indicated that it will defer voting on a recommendation for the routine use of Prevnar 13 in adults 50 years of age and older until the results of CAPiTA, as well as data on the impact of pediatric use of Prevnar 13 on the disease burden and serotype distribution among adults, are available. The rate of uptake for the use of Prevnar 13 in adults 50 years of age and older has been impacted by ACIP’s decision to defer voting on a recommendation for the routine use of Prevnar 13 in that population. At its regular meeting held on June 20, 2012, ACIP voted to recommend the use of Prevnar 13 for adults 19 years of age and older with immuno-compromising conditions such as HIV infections, cancer, advanced kidney disease and other immuno-compromising conditions. This recommendation is based on the disproportionate burden of invasive pneumococcal disease in this patient population.
Enbrel, for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis, polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, plaque psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis, a type of arthritis affecting the spine, recorded an increase in worldwide revenues, excluding the U.S. and Canada, of 4% in the third quarter of 2013, while revenues remained relatively unchanged for the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Results were favorably impacted by the overall growth in the anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) biologic market and unfavorably impacted by foreign exchange and by decreased government purchases in Brazil.

Under our co-promotion agreement with Amgen Inc. (Amgen), we co-promote Enbrel in the U.S. and Canada and share in the profits from Enbrel sales in those countries, which we have included in Alliance revenues. Our co-promotion agreement with Amgen expired in October 2013, and, subject to the terms of the agreement, we are entitled to a royalty stream for 36 months thereafter, which we expect will be significantly less than our share of Enbrel profits from U.S. and Canadian sales prior to the expiration. The royalties that will be paid to us during the 36-month period will be included in Other (income)/deductions––net rather than in Revenues in our consolidated statements of income. Following the end of the royalty period, we will not be entitled to any further revenues from Enbrel sales in the U.S. and Canada. Our exclusive rights to Enbrel outside the U.S. and Canada will not be affected by the expiration of the co-promotion agreement with Amgen.
Celebrex, indicated for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis worldwide and for the management of acute pain in adults in the U.S., Japan and certain other markets, recorded an increase in worldwide revenues of 11% in the third quarter of 2013 and 8% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to strong performance in the U.S.
In the U.S., revenues increased 16% in the third quarter of 2013 and 11% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily driven by price increases and overall market growth, partially offset by volume erosion due to ongoing generic pressure, as well as higher rebates and sales allowances.
Internationally, Celebrex revenues increased 3% in the third quarter of 2013 and 1% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Strong operational performance in international markets was driven by growth in Japan (strong performance in the low back pain and osteoarthritis indications), South Korea (strong performance in the rheumatology and orthopedic sectors), and in emerging markets, primarily driven by Latin America and China, partially offset by lower revenues in the developed markets in Europe in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on international revenues of 5% in both the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.
Lipitor is for the treatment of elevated LDL-cholesterol levels in the blood. Lipitor has lost exclusivity and faces generic competition in all major markets. Branded Lipitor recorded worldwide revenues of $533 million, or a decrease of 29%, in the third quarter of 2013, and $1.7 billion, or a decrease of 49%, in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to:
the impact of loss of exclusivity;
the continuing impact of an intensely competitive lipid-lowering market with competition from generics and branded products worldwide; and
the increased payer pressure worldwide, including the need for flexible rebate policies.
Geographically,
in the U.S., revenues decreased 59% in the third quarter of 2013, and 62% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012; and
in our international markets, revenues decreased 18% in the third quarter of 2013, and 45% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on international revenues of $11 million in the third quarter and $33 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.

See the “Our Operating Environment” section of this MD&A for a discussion concerning losses of exclusivity for Lipitor in various markets.
Viagra is indicated for the treatment for erectile dysfunction. Viagra worldwide revenues decreased 11% in the third quarter of 2013, and decreased 6% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to a decrease in international revenues. International revenues decreased 28% in the third quarter and 13% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to entry of generics in developed Europe and other key developed markets. In emerging markets, the decrease was primarily due to the impact of both herbal and generic competition. Loss of exclusivity for Viagra in four major European markets occurred in late-June 2013 and reduced revenues for the three months and nine months ended September 29, 2013 by approximately $48 million and $72 million, respectively, in comparison with the same periods in 2012. Revenues in the U.S. increased 2% in the third quarter and were essentially flat in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.
Zyvox is the world’s best-selling branded agent among those used to treat serious Gram-positive pathogens, including methicillin-resistant staphylococcus-aureus. Zyvox worldwide revenues decreased 3% in the third quarter of 2013 and increased 1% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. The decrease in the third quarter of

72

Table of Contents

2013 was primarily due to a prolonged supply interruption of Zyvox IV in China that is expected to continue through early 2014, and also reflects the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Norvasc, for the treatment of hypertension, lost exclusivity in the U.S. and other major markets in 2007 and in Canada in 2009. Norvasc worldwide revenues decreased 5% in the third quarter and 8% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, reflects, among other factors, the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Sutent is indicated for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma, including metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC); gastrointestinal stromal tumors after disease progression on, or intolerance to, imatinib mesylate; and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. Sutent worldwide revenues decreased 5% in the third quarter of 2013 and 2% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to decreases in developed Europe and Japan as a result of increased competition and cost-containment measures in those markets, as well as some conversion from Sutent to Inlyta in Japan due to broader label for Inlyta in Japan, which overlaps with the Sutent indication, partially offset by price increases in the U.S. and increases in uptake in key emerging markets, most notably Russia.
Our Premarin family of products helps women address moderate-to-severe menopausal symptoms. Premarin worldwide revenues increased 5% in the third quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, and decreased 1% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. Revenues in the U.S. were favorably impacted by two price increases and growth in Premarin Vaginal Cream prescription volume, and unfavorably impacted by prescription volume declines for Premarin Family Oral brands.
BeneFIX and ReFacto AF/Xyntha are hemophilia products using state-of-the-art manufacturing that assist patients with their lifelong bleeding disorders. BeneFIX recorded an increase in worldwide revenues of 6% in the third quarter of 2013 and 7% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily as a result of increases in the U.S. due to the continued adoption of the 3000 International Unit vial, as well as price increases, and increased revenues in Japan, due to continued product adoption.
ReFacto AF/Xyntha recorded a 3% increase in worldwide revenues in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily due to the final transition of patients to Xyntha in Australia due to the national tender secured in 2011, continued strong U.S. performance with competitive patient conversions, and with the successful launch in Germany of the ReFacto AF dual chamber syringe ("FuseNGo").
Pristiq is approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder in the U.S. and in various other countries. Pristiq has also been approved for treatment of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) associated with menopause in Thailand, Mexico, the Philippines and Ecuador. Pristiq recorded an increase in worldwide revenues of 14% in the third quarter of 2013 and 12% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to prescription growth in the emerging markets, Canada and Australia, as well as more favorable contract rebates and a price increase in the U.S.
Chantix/Champix is an aid to smoking-cessation treatment in adults 18 years of age and older. Worldwide revenues increased 5% in the third quarter of 2013 and decreased 2% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012. Revenues in the U.S. increased 32% in the third quarter of 2013 and 8% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to price increases in January and July 2013 and lower rebates. International revenues decreased 14% in the third quarter and decreased 11% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily due to lower overall market growth across several key markets as a result of a challenging macro-economic environment, as well as the lingering impact from previous negative media exposure and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Inlyta, for the treatment of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after failure of a prior systemic treatment, is approved in 55 countries, including the U.S., EU, Switzerland, Japan, Canada, Australia, South Korea and some emerging markets, including Russia, Mexico and Turkey (exact indications vary by region). Inlyta recorded worldwide revenues of $83 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $217 million in the first nine months of 2013.
Xalkori, for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive, is now approved in more than 60 countries, including the U.S., EU, Japan, South Korea, Canada, Australia and Switzerland, as well as in many emerging markets, including China, Russia, Mexico, India and Turkey. Xalkori recorded worldwide revenues of $73 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $193 million in the first nine months of 2013.
Xeljanz was approved in the U.S. in November 2012 and in various countries in 2013 for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis. Xeljanz recorded worldwide revenues of $35 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $68 million in the first nine months of 2013, virtually all in the U.S.

Table of Contents

Alliance revenues worldwide decreased 22% in the third quarter of 2013 and 15% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, mainly due to:
the near-term expiration of the co-promotion collaboration for Spiriva in the U.S. and certain European countries and the expiration of the collaboration in Australia, Canada and certain other European countries, which resulted in declines of $170 million in the third quarter and $373 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, in Pfizer's share of Spiriva's revenues pursuant to the terms of the collaboration agreement; and
the loss of exclusivity for Aricept 5mg and 10mg tablets in the U.S. in November 2010 and the entry of multi-source generic competition in the U.S. in May 2011, as well as the loss of exclusivity in many major European markets in February 2012 and the termination of the co-promotion agreement for Aricept in Japan in December 2012, which resulted in a decrease in Pfizer's share of Aricept revenues of $69 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $221 million in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012,
partially offset by:
the strong performance of Enbrel in the U.S.
The Aricept 23mg tablet lost exclusivity in the U.S. in July 2013. See the “Industry-Specific Challenges” section of this MD&A for a discussion regarding the expiration of various contract rights relating to Aricept, Spiriva, Enbrel and Rebif.
Eliquis (apixaban) is being jointly developed and commercialized by Pfizer and Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS). In 2012, Eliquis (apixaban) was approved to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in the 27 countries of the EU, plus Iceland and Norway, Canada, Japan and the U.S. To date, we have launched that indication for Eliquis in the U.S., UK, Germany, Denmark, Japan, Netherlands and Sweden. The two companies share commercialization expenses and profit/losses equally on a global basis. While we are the third entrant in this market, we believe we have a differentiated product profile and continue to invest in medical education and peer-to-peer programs to assist physicians in understanding the data, and we have begun direct-to consumer advertising in the U.S.
Embeda—A prior approval supplement for a manufacturing change was submitted to the FDA in early July 2013. In early November 2013, the FDA approved that change, and we anticipate returning Embeda to the market in the second quarter of 2014.

(a) 
Our operating segments, in addition to their sales and marketing responsibilities, are responsible for certain development activities. Generally, these responsibilities relate to additional indications for in-line products and in-process research and development (IPR&D) projects that have achieved proof-of-concept. R&D spending may include upfront and milestone payments for intellectual property rights.
(b) 
The decrease relates to the non-recurrence of a $250 million payment to AstraZeneca in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012 to obtain the exclusive, global, over-the-counter rights to Nexium.
(c) 
Worldwide Research and Development is generally responsible for research projects until proof-of-concept is achieved, and then for transitioning those projects to the appropriate business unit for possible clinical and commercial development. R&D spending may include upfront and milestone payments for intellectual property rights. This organization also has responsibility for certain science-based and other platform-services organizations, which provide technical expertise and other services to the various R&D projects. Worldwide Research and Development is also responsible for all regulatory submissions and interactions with regulatory agencies, including all safety event activities. Pfizer Medical is responsible for the provision of medical information to healthcare providers, patients and other parties, transparency and disclosure activities, clinical trial results publication, grants for healthcare quality improvement and medical education, partnerships with global public health and medical associations, regulatory inspection readiness reviews, internal audits of Pfizer-sponsored clinical trials and internal regulatory compliance processes.
(d) 
Corporate and other includes unallocated costs, primarily facility costs, information technology, share-based compensation, and restructuring-related costs. The decreases in the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2013 primarily reflect lower charges relating to implementing our cost-reduction and productivity initiatives as well as efficiencies gained from these efforts (see the “Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A).

Product Developments—Biopharmaceutical
 
We continue to invest in R&D to provide potential future sources of revenues through the development of new products, as well as through additional uses for in-line and alliance products. Notwithstanding our efforts, 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.

We continue to transform our global research and development organization and pursue strategies intended to improve innovation and overall productivity in R&D with the goal of building a sustainable pipeline that will deliver value in the near term and over time. Our R&D priorities include: delivering a pipeline of differentiated therapies with the greatest scientific and commercial promise, innovating new capabilities that can position Pfizer for long-term leadership and creating new models for biomedical collaboration that will expedite the pace of innovation and the system's overall productivity. To that end, our research primarily focuses on five high-priority areas that have a mix of small molecules and large molecules—immunology and inflammation; oncology; cardiovascular and metabolic diseases; neuroscience and pain; and vaccines. Other areas of focus include rare diseases and biosimilars.

(a) 
This indication for Eliquis (apixaban) was developed in collaboration with BMS.
(b) 
In May 2012, the FDA's Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee voted that the tafamidis meglumine data provide substantial evidence of efficacy for a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit. In June 2012, the FDA issued a “complete response” letter with respect to the tafamidis NDA. The FDA has requested the completion of a second efficacy study and also has asked for additional information on the data within the current tafamidis NDA. We continue to work with the FDA to define a path forward.
(c) 
After receiving a “complete response” letter from the FDA for the Genotropin Mark VII multidose disposable device submission, we submitted our response in August 2010. In April 2011, we received a second “complete response” letter from the FDA, and we submitted our response in July 2013.
(d) 
In June 2010, we received a “complete response” letter from the FDA for the Celebrex chronic pain supplemental NDA. The supplemental NDA remains pending while we await the completion of ongoing studies to determine next steps.
(e) 
In 2005, King Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (King) entered into an agreement with Pain Therapeutics, Inc. (PT) to develop and commercialize Remoxy. In August 2008, the FDA accepted the NDA for Remoxy that had been submitted by King and PT. In December 2008, the FDA issued a “complete response” letter. In March 2009, King exercised its right under the agreement with PT to assume sole control and responsibility for the development of Remoxy. In December 2010, King resubmitted the NDA for Remoxy with the FDA. In June 2011, we and PT announced that a “complete response” letter had been received from the FDA with regard to the resubmission of the NDA. Having achieved technical milestones related to manufacturing and following guidance received from the FDA earlier in the year, we announced in October 2013 that we will proceed with the additional clinical studies and other actions required to address the "complete response" letter received in June 2011. These new clinical studies will include, in part, a pivotal bioequivalence study with the modified Remoxy formulation to bridge to the clinical data related to the original Remoxy formulation, and an abuse-potential study with the modified formulation. As previously disclosed, the "complete response" submission is not expected to occur prior to mid-2015.
(f) 
Two “approvable” letters were received by Wyeth in April and December 2007 from the FDA for Viviant (bazedoxifene), for the prevention of post-menopausal osteoporosis, that set forth the additional requirements for approval. In May 2008, Wyeth received an “approvable”

76

letter from the FDA for the treatment of post-menopausal osteoporosis. The FDA is seeking additional data, and we have been systematically working through these requirements and seeking to address the FDA's concerns. In February 2008, the FDA advised Wyeth that it expects to convene an advisory committee to review the pending NDAs for both the treatment and prevention indications after we submit our response to the “approvable” letters. In view of the recent approval of Duavee by the FDA, we are reassessing the next steps regarding our NDAs for Viviant. In April 2009, Wyeth received approval in the EU for CONBRIZA (the EU trade name for Viviant) for the treatment of post-menopausal osteoporosis in women at increased risk of fracture.

The tanezumab program is under a partial clinical hold by the FDA pending our submission of additional nonclinical data. We anticipate submitting that data to the FDA in the first half of 2014. Subject to the removal of the partial clinical hold, we are planning to continue development of tanezumab for the treatment of osteoarthritis, chronic low back pain and cancer pain. In October 2013, we entered into a collaboration agreement with Eli Lilly and Company to jointly develop and globally commercialize tanezumab for those indications.

Additional product-related programs are in various stages of discovery and development. Also, see the discussion in the “Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A.

Comprises Restructuring charges and certain acquisition-related costs as well as costs associated with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives included in Cost of sales, Research and development expenses and/or Selling, informational and administrative expenses, as appropriate.

We incur significant costs in connection with acquiring, integrating and restructuring businesses and in connection with our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives. For example:
In connection with acquisition activity, we typically incur costs associated with executing the transactions, integrating the acquired operations (which may include expenditures for consulting and the integration of systems and processes), and restructuring the combined company (which may include charges related to employees, assets and activities that will not continue in the combined company); and
In connection with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, we typically incur costs and charges associated with site closings and other facility rationalization actions, workforce reductions and the expansion of shared services, including the development of global systems.

Costs associated with acquisitions and cost-reduction/productivity initiatives decreased 35% in the third quarter of 2013 and 48% in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, due to lower costs incurred in all categories: restructuring charges (down $38 million and $366 million, respectively), integration costs (down $41 million and $172 million, respectively), additional depreciation––asset restructuring (down $33 million and $224 million, respectively) and lower implementation costs (down $65 million and $99 million, respectively). The overall lower costs reflect the fact that we are in the later stages of these activities in connection with our recent acquisitions and recent cost-reduction/productivity initiatives. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives for more information.

All of our businesses and functions may be impacted by these actions, including sales and marketing, manufacturing and research and development, as well as groups such as information technology, shared services and corporate operations. Since the acquisition of Wyeth on October 15, 2009, our cost-reduction initiatives announced on January 26, 2009, but not completed as of December 31, 2009, were incorporated into a comprehensive plan to integrate Wyeth’s operations to generate cost savings and to capture synergies across the combined company. In addition, on February 1, 2011, among our ongoing cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, we announced a new productivity initiative to accelerate our strategies to improve innovation and

79

Table of Contents

productivity in R&D by prioritizing areas that we believe have the greatest scientific and commercial promise, utilizing appropriate risk/return profiles and focusing on areas with the highest potential to deliver value in the near term and over time.

Cost-Reduction Goals

As explained more fully in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we achieved the global cost-reduction goals that had been established in 2009 and updated in 2011 for these major initiatives. In addition to these major initiatives, we continuously monitor our operations for cost-reduction and/or productivity opportunities, especially in light of the losses of exclusivity and the expiration of collaborations for various products.

Total Costs

Through September 29, 2013, we incurred approximately $15.3 billion (pre-tax) in cost-reduction and acquisition-related costs (excluding transaction costs) in connection with the aforementioned initiatives. This $15.3 billion is a component of the $16.1 billion (pre-tax) in total restructuring charges incurred from the beginning of our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives in 2005 through September 29, 2013. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives for more information. In 2013, we expect to incur approximately $600-$800 million (after tax) in costs in connection with our ongoing cost-reduction/productivity initiatives and have reflected those costs, as well as the related expected cost reductions of approximately $1.0 billion (pre-tax), in our 2013 financial guidance. See also the “Our Financial Guidance for 2013” section of this MD&A.

Key Activities

As explained more fully in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, the targeted cost reductions were achieved through, among other things, the following actions, and we continue to generate cost reductions through similar actions:
The closing of duplicative facilities and other site rationalization actions Company-wide, including research and development facilities, manufacturing plants, sales offices and other corporate facilities. Among the more significant actions are the following:
Manufacturing: After the acquisition of Wyeth, our manufacturing sites totaled 59. Other acquisitions added 8 manufacturing sites, and we have subsequently exited 11 sites, resulting in 56 sites supporting continuing operations as of September 29, 2013. Our plant network strategy is expected to result in the exit of a further seven sites over the next several years. These site counts exclude five Nutrition business-related manufacturing sites as the Nutrition business was sold in 2012, and exclude 24 Zoetis sites as the disposition of the remaining 80.2% interest in Zoetis common stock was completed on June 24, 2013. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures for more information.
Research and Development: After the acquisition of Wyeth, we operated in 20 R&D sites and announced that we would close a number of sites. We have completed a number of site closures, including our Sandwich, U.K. research and development facility, except for a small presence. In addition, in 2011, we rationalized several other sites to reduce and optimize the overall R&D footprint. We disposed of our toxicology site in Catania, Italy; exited our R&D sites in Aberdeen and Gosport, U.K.; and disposed of a vacant site in St. Louis, MO. We still maintain laboratories in St. Louis, MO that focus on the areas of biologics and indications discovery. We are presently marketing for sale, lease or sale/lease-back, either a portion of or all of certain of our R&D campuses. Locations with R&D operations are in the U.S., Europe, Canada and China, with five major research sites in addition to a number of specialized units. We also re-prioritized our commitments to disease areas and have discontinued certain therapeutic areas and R&D programs as part of our R&D productivity initiative. Our research primarily focuses on five high-priority areas that have a mix of small and large molecules—immunology and inflammation; oncology; cardiovascular and metabolic diseases; neuroscience and pain; and vaccines. Other areas of focus include rare diseases and biosimilars.
Workforce reductions across all areas of our business and other organizational changes, primarily in the U.S. field force, manufacturing, R&D and corporate functions. We identified areas for a reduction in workforce across all of our businesses. From 2009, when the workforce was approximately 130,000, through the end of 2012, we achieved a reduction of 38,500, and by the end of the third quarter of 2013, we achieved a reduction of 51,600. In the first nine months of 2013, the workforce declined by 13,100, from 91,500 to 78,400, primarily due to the full disposition of our Animal Health business (Zoetis), which resulted in a workforce reduction of approximately 9,300. The aforementioned workforce reductions include the impact of acquisitions and divestitures subsequent to the Wyeth acquisition.

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 27.6% for the third quarter of 2013, compared to (6.5)% for the third quarter of 2012, and was 30.6% for the first nine months of 2013, compared to 17.7% for the first nine months of 2012.

The unfavorable change in the effective tax rate for both periods reflects favorable audit settlements in the third quarter and first nine months of 2012; specifically, (i) a tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion (representing tax and interest) recorded in connection with a settlement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) related to audits for multiple tax years (2006 - 2008), as well as (ii) a tax benefit recorded for the resolution of foreign audits pertaining to multiple tax years.

To a lesser extent, the unfavorable comparison of the first nine months of 2013 to the first nine months of 2012 reflects (i) the tax rate associated with the patent litigation settlement income and (ii) the non-deductibility of the goodwill derecognized and the jurisdictional mix of the other intangible assets divested as part of the transfer of certain product rights to our equity-method investment in China and (iii) the non-deductibility of the loss on an option to acquire the remaining interest in Teuto, a 40%-owned generics company in Brazil, since we expect to retain the investment indefinitely, partially offset by (i) the extension of the U.S. R&D tax credit (resulting in the full-year benefit of the 2012 R&D tax credit and the year-to-date 2013 R&D tax credit being recorded in the first nine months of 2013) and (ii) the change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business.

Change in Tax Law
On February 28, 2013, the Governor of Puerto Rico signed into law Act No. 2-2013, amending Sections 2101 and 2102 of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 1994, which provided for an excise tax that was effective beginning in 2011 (Act 154). The excise tax is imposed on the purchase of products by multinational corporations and their affiliates from their Puerto Rico affiliates. As originally adopted, the excise tax was to be in effect from 2011 through 2016 and the tax rate was to decline over time from 4% in 2011 to 1% in 2016. Act No. 2-2013 extended the excise tax through 2017 and, effective July 1, 2013, increased the tax rate to 4% for all years through 2017. The impact of Act No. 2-2013 is being recorded in Cost of sales and Provision for taxes on income.

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. We report Adjusted income in order to portray the results of our major operations––the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of prescription medicines, consumer healthcare (over-the-counter) products, and vaccines––prior to considering certain income statement elements. We have defined Adjusted income as Net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. before the impact of purchase accounting for acquisitions, acquisition-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 in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how the Adjusted income measure is utilized:
senior management receives a monthly analysis of our operating results that is prepared on an Adjusted income basis;
our annual budgets are prepared on an Adjusted income basis; and
senior management’s annual compensation is derived, in part, using this Adjusted income measure. Adjusted income is one of the performance metrics utilized in the determination of bonuses under the Pfizer Inc. Executive Annual Incentive Plan that is designed to limit the bonuses payable to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). Subject to the Section 162(m) limitation, the bonuses are funded from a pool based on the achievement of three financial metrics, including adjusted diluted earnings per share, which is derived from Adjusted income. This metric accounts for 40% of the bonus pool made available to ELT members and other members of senior management and will constitute a factor in determining each of these individual’s bonus.

Despite the importance of this measure to management in goal setting and performance measurement, 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

83

Table of Contents

be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted income is presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

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 operations without including all events during a period, such as the effects of an acquisition or amortization of purchased intangibles, and does not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in the biopharmaceutical industry. We also use other specifically tailored tools designed to achieve the highest levels of performance. For example, our R&D organization has productivity targets, upon which its effectiveness is measured. In addition, the earn-out of Performance Share Award grants is determined based on a formula that measures our performance using relative total shareholder return.

Purchase Accounting Adjustments

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering certain significant purchase accounting impacts resulting from business combinations and net asset acquisitions. These impacts, primarily associated with Pharmacia (acquired in 2003), Wyeth (acquired in 2009) and King (acquired in 2011), can include the incremental charge to cost of sales from the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value, amortization related to the increase in fair value of the acquired finite-lived intangible assets, depreciation related to the increase/decrease in fair value of the acquired fixed assets, amortization related to the increase in fair value of acquired debt, and the fair value changes associated with contingent consideration. Therefore, the Adjusted income measure includes the revenues earned upon the sale of the acquired products without considering the acquisition cost of those products.

Certain of the purchase accounting adjustments can occur through 20 or more 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 previously have been 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 from 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 we had discovered and developed those intangible assets on our 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 we discovered and developed the acquired intangible assets.

Acquisition-Related Costs

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering transaction, integration, restructuring and additional depreciation 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 transaction costs, additional depreciation and restructuring and integration activities that are associated with a business combination or a net-asset acquisition are included in acquisition-related costs. We have made no adjustments for the resulting synergies.

We believe that viewing income prior to considering these charges provides investors with a useful additional perspective because the significant costs incurred in connection with 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

84

Table of Contents

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 and/or other global regulatory authorities.

Discontinued Operations

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering the results of operations included in discontinued operations, as well as any related gains or losses on the disposal of such operations such as the gains on the full disposition of our former Animal Health business (Zoetis) in June 2013 and the sale of our former Nutrition business in November 2012. We believe that this presentation is meaningful to investors because, while we review our businesses and product lines for strategic fit with our operations, we do not build or run our businesses with the intent to sell them. (Restatements due to discontinued operations do not impact compensation or change the Adjusted income measure for the compensation in respect of the restated periods, but are presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on a restated basis for consistency across all periods.)

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 that is specific in nature with a defined term, such as those related to our non-acquisition-related cost-reduction and productivity initiatives; amounts related to certain disposals of businesses, products or facilities that do not qualify as discontinued operations under U.S. GAAP; amounts associated with transition service agreements in support of discontinued operations after sale; certain intangible asset impairments; adjustments related to the resolution of certain tax positions; the impact of adopting certain significant, event-driven tax legislation; or charges or income related to certain legal matters, such as certain of those discussed in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12A. Commitments and Contingencies included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Normal, ongoing defense costs of the Company or settlements of and accruals on legal matters made in the normal course of our business would not be considered certain significant items.

(a) 
The effective tax rate on Non-GAAP Adjusted income was 27.6% in the third quarter of 2013, compared with 28.0% in the third quarter of 2012. For the first nine months of 2013, the effective tax rate on Non-GAAP Adjusted income was 27.4%, compared to 28.4% in the same period last year. The tax rates in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012 were favorably impacted by the jurisdictional mix of earnings and the extension of the U.S. R&D tax credit that was signed into law in January 2013, partially offset by the non-recurrence of favorable audit settlements with foreign jurisdictions for multiple years.

(Teuto), a 40%-owned generics company in Brazil, since we expect to retain the investment indefinitely. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, includes a tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion (representing tax and interest) recorded in connection with a settlement with the U.S. IRS related to audits for multiple tax years that favorably impacted GAAP Reported net income (see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5A. Tax Matters: Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations).

ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Changes in the components of Accumulated other comprehensive loss for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 reflect the following:

For Foreign currency translation adjustments, for the first nine months of 2013, reflects the weakening of several foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, primarily the Japanese yen, the Brazil real, the Australian dollar and the British pound, partially offset by the strengthening of several foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, primarily the euro.

For Unrealized holding gains on derivative financial instruments, reflects the impact of fair value adjustments and the reclassification of realized gains into income. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 7. Financial Instruments.

For Benefit plans: actuarial gains/(losses), net, reflects the impact of actuarial gains and losses and the reclassification of amortization and curtailments/settlements into income. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 10. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans.

Operating Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $12.0 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to $11.8 billion in the same period of 2012. The net cash provided by operating activities reflects:
the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business (including the receipt of a portion of the Protonix patent litigation settlement income and payments against legal accruals); and
spending reductions resulting from our company-wide, cost reduction/productivity initiatives,
almost fully offset by:
the loss of exclusivity of Lipitor and other products and the ongoing expiration of the Spiriva collaboration in certain countries, resulting in lower revenues and associated expenses (see also the “Industry-Specific Challenges” section of this MD&A).

In the first nine months of 2013, the change in the line item called Other changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures, reflects the $0.6 billion portion of the Protonix patent litigation settlement income that had not been received in cash as of September 29, 2013. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4. Other (Income)/Deductions—Net and Note 12A5. Commitments and ContingenciesLegal ProceedingsCertain Matters Resolved During the First Nine Months of 2013. In addition, the components of this line item for both periods reflect changes in the ordinary course of business for accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued compensation and other current and non-current liabilities. For additional information about accounts receivable, see also the “Selected Measures of Liquidity and Capital Resources: Accounts Receivable” section of this MD&A.

Investing Activities

Our net cash used in investing activities was $10.7 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $683 million in the same period in 2012. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to:
net purchases of investments of $9.9 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to net proceeds from redemptions and sales of investments of $936 million in the first nine months of 2012,
partially offset by:
net cash paid, in the first nine months of 2012, of $782 million, for our acquisitions of Alacer and Ferrosan.

Table of Contents

Financing Activities

Our net cash used in financing activities was $9.2 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $9.8 billion in the same period in 2012. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to:
net proceeds from borrowings of $6.0 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to net repayments of borrowings of $372 million in the first nine months of 2012; and
increased proceeds from the exercise of stock options,
partially offset by:
purchases of common stock of $11.6 billion in the first nine months of 2013, compared to $4.8 billion in the first nine months of 2012; and
higher cash dividends paid.

Supplemental Schedule of Non-Cash Investing and Financing Information

In the first nine months of 2013, we:
sold our Animal Health business (Zoetis) for Pfizer common stock valued at $11.4 billion;
exchanged Zoetis common stock for the retirement of Pfizer commercial paper issued in 2013 for $2.5 billion;
exchanged Zoetis senior notes for the retirement of Pfizer commercial paper issued in 2012 for $1.0 billion; and
transferred certain product rights, valued at $1.2 billion, to an equity-method investment.

For further details on Zoetis-related transactions, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures, and for further details on the transfer of certain product rights, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2D. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Equity-Method Investments.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
We rely largely on operating cash flows, short-term investments, short-term commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt to provide for our liquidity requirements. 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. Due to our significant operating cash flows as well as our financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we further believe that we have the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, which include:
the working capital requirements of our operations, including our research and development activities;
investments in our business;
dividend payments and potential increases in the dividend rate;
share repurchases;
the cash requirements associated with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives;
paying down outstanding debt;
contributions to our pension and postretirement plans; and
business-development activities.

Our long-term debt is rated high quality by both Standard & Poor’s (S&P) and Moody’s Investors Service (Moody's). See the “Credit Ratings” section below. As market conditions change, we continue to monitor our liquidity position. We have taken and will continue to take a conservative approach to our financial investments. Both short-term and long-term investments consist primarily of high-quality, highly liquid, well-diversified, available-for-sale debt securities.

For additional information about the sources and uses of our funds, see the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows sections of this MD&A.

On June 3, 2013, we completed a public offering of $4.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes. In addition, we repaid at maturity our 3.625% senior unsecured notes that were due June 2013, which had a balance of $2.4 billion at December 31, 2012.

Subsequent Event––On November 4, 2013, the amended reorganization plan for our wholly owned subsidiary, Quigley Company, Inc. (Quigley or, subsequent to the effectiveness of the amended reorganization plan on November 4, 2013, Reorganized Quigley) became effective and, in compliance with the terms of that plan, among other actions, we transferred approximately $724 million in cash to Reorganized Quigley and the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust. In addition, in October 2013, in accordance with a group of pre-bankruptcy-proceeding settlements with counsel representing various plaintiffs in the Quigley bankruptcy proceeding, we paid approximately $176 million in cash to plaintiffs' counsel for the benefit of claimants. At the time of these cash payments, we also derecognized certain of our asbestos-related liabilities, reported in Other current liabilities as of September 29, 2013. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A2. Commitments and Contingencies: Legal Proceedings––Product Litigation.

Full Separation of Zoetis––Impacts on Liquidity

As a result of the Zoetis-related transactions, which were completed in the second quarter of 2013, among other impacts, we received approximately $6.1 billion of cash. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2B. Acquisitions, Divestitures, Collaborative Arrangement and Equity-Method Investments: Divestitures.

Domestic and International Short-Term Funds
 
Many of our operations are conducted outside the U.S., and significant portions of our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are held internationally. We generally hold approximately 10% to 30% of these short-term funds in U.S. tax jurisdictions. The amount of funds held in U.S. tax jurisdictions can fluctuate due to the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business and due to other reasons, such as business-development activities. As part of our ongoing liquidity assessments, we regularly monitor the mix of domestic and international cash flows (both inflows and outflows). Repatriation of overseas funds can result in additional U.S. federal, state and local income tax payments. We record U.S. deferred tax liabilities for certain unremitted earnings, but when amounts earned overseas are expected to be indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S., no accrual for U.S. taxes is provided.

Accounts Receivable

We continue to monitor developments regarding government and government agency receivables in several European markets where economic conditions remain challenging and uncertain. Historically, payments from a number of these European governments and government agencies extend beyond the contractual terms of sale, with no significant changes in the year-over-year trend.

We believe that our allowance for doubtful accounts is appropriate. Our assessment is based on an analysis of the following: (i) payments received to date; (ii) the consistency of payments from customers; (iii) direct and observed interactions with the governments (including court petitions) and with market participants (for example, the factoring industry); and (iv) various third-party assessments of repayment risk (for example, rating agency publications and the movement of rates for credit default swap instruments).

As of September 29, 2013, we had about $1.3 billion in aggregate gross accounts receivable from governments and/or government agencies in Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal and Ireland where economic conditions remain challenging and uncertain. Such receivables in excess of one year from the invoice date, totaling $321 million, were as follows: $121 million in Italy; $115 million in Spain; $47 million in Greece; $32 million in Portugal; and $6 million in Ireland.

Although certain European governments and government agencies sometimes delay payments beyond the contractual terms of sale, we seek to appropriately balance repayment risk with the desire to maintain good relationships with our customers and to ensure a humanitarian approach to local patient needs.

We will continue to closely monitor repayment risk and, when necessary, we will continue to adjust our allowance for doubtful accounts.

Our assessments about the recoverability of accounts receivables can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. For information about the risks associated with estimates and assumptions, see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 1C. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Estimates and Assumptions included in our 2012 Financial Report, which was filed as Exhibit 13 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Credit Ratings

Two major corporate debt-rating organizations, Moody’s and S&P, assign ratings to our short-term and long-term debt. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and the rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.
The following table provides the current ratings assigned by these rating agencies to our commercial paper and senior unsecured non-credit-enhanced long-term debt:

Debt Capacity

We have available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements with a group of banks and other financial intermediaries. We maintain cash and cash equivalent balances and short-term investments in excess of commercial paper and other short-term borrowings. As of September 29, 2013, we had access to $9.2 billion of lines of credit, of which $1.4 billion expire within one year. Of these lines of credit, $8.5 billion are unused, of which our lenders have committed to loan us $7.1 billion at our request. Also, $7.0 billion of the unused lines of credit, all of which expire in 2016, may be used to support commercial paper borrowings.

Global Economic Conditions

The challenging economic environment has not had, nor do we anticipate it will have, a significant impact on our liquidity. Due to our significant operating cash flows, financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we continue to believe that we have the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. As markets change, we continue to monitor our liquidity position. There can be no assurance that the challenging economic environment or a further economic downturn would not impact our ability to obtain financing in the future.

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 that are 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 generally are subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations. Historically, we have not paid significant amounts under these provisions and, as of September 29, 2013, recorded amounts for the estimated fair value of these indemnifications are not significant.

Certain of our co-promotion or license agreements give our licensors or partners the rights to negotiate for, or in some cases to obtain under certain financial conditions, co-promotion or other rights in specified countries with respect to certain of our products.

Share-Purchase Plans

On November 1, 2012, we announced that the Board of Directors had authorized a $10 billion share-purchase plan, which became effective on November 30, 2012. On June 27, 2013, we announced that the Board of Directors had authorized an additional $10 billion share-purchase plan.

In the first nine months of 2013, we purchased approximately 411 million shares of our common stock for approximately $11.6 billion under our publicly announced share-purchase plans. In the first nine months of 2012, we purchased approximately 213 million shares of our common stock for approximately $4.8 billion under our publicly announced share-purchase plans. After giving effect to share purchases through September 29, 2013, our remaining share-repurchase authorization was approximately $10.2 billion.

Dividends on Common Stock

In October 2013, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.24 per share, payable December 3, 2013, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 8, 2013.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 1B. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Adoption of New Accounting Standards.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Adopted as of September 29, 2013

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a clarification regarding the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit related to a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. Under this new standard, this unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion thereof, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset if available under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position. Otherwise, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a separate liability. The assessment is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date. The provisions of the new standard are effective on a prospective basis beginning in 2014 for annual and interim reporting periods, but early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the provisions of this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, but certain amounts currently recorded in Other taxes payable will be recorded, upon adoption and thereafter, primarily in Noncurrent deferred tax liabilities.

In March 2013, the FASB issued a clarification regarding the accounting for cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) upon derecognition of assets or investment within a foreign entity. This new standard provides additional CTA accounting guidance on sales or transfers of foreign entity investments and assets as well as step acquisitions involving a foreign entity. The provisions of the new standard are effective on a prospective basis in 2014 for annual and interim reporting periods. We do not expect the provisions of this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance regarding the measurement of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements that may include debt agreements, other contractual obligations and settled litigation or judicial rulings. The provisions of this standard require that these obligations are measured at the amount representing the agreed-upon obligation of the company as well as additional liability amounts it expects to assume on behalf of other parties in the arrangement. The provisions of the new standard are effective on a retrospective basis in 2014 for annual and interim reporting periods. We do not expect the provisions of this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

This report and other written or oral statements that we make from time to time contain forward-looking statements that set forth anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions. Such forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “target,” “forecast,” “goal,” “objective,” "aim" and other words and terms of similar meaning or by using future dates in connection with any discussion of, among other things, our anticipated future operating or financial performance, business plans and prospects, in-line products and product candidates, strategic reviews, capital allocation, business-development plans and plans related to share repurchases and dividends. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, business plans and prospects, prospective products or product approvals, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, plans relating to share repurchases and dividends, government regulation and financial results, including, in particular, the financial guidance set forth in the “Our Financial Guidance for 2013” section of this MD&A, the anticipated costs and cost savings set forth in the “Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A and the contributions that we expect to make from our general assets to the Company's pension and postretirement plans during 2013 as described in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 10. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from past results and future plans and projected future results are the following:
the outcome of research and development activities including, without limitation, the ability to meet anticipated clinical trial commencement and completion dates, regulatory submission and approval dates, and launch dates for product candidates, as well as the possibility of unfavorable clinical trial results, including unfavorable new clinical data and additional analyses of existing clinical data;
decisions by regulatory authorities regarding whether and when to approve our drug applications, as well as their decisions regarding labeling, ingredients and other matters that could affect the availability or commercial potential of our products;
the speed with which regulatory authorizations, pricing approvals and product launches may be achieved;

the ability to meet generic and branded competition after the loss of patent protection for our products or competitor products;
the ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally;
difficulties or delays in manufacturing;

the impact of the U.S. Budget Control Act of 2011 (the Budget Control Act) and the deficit-reduction actions to be taken pursuant to the Budget Control Act in order to achieve the deficit-reduction targets provided for therein, and the impact of any broader deficit-reduction efforts;
the inability of the U.S. federal government to conduct drug review and approval activities or to satisfy its financial obligations, including under Medicare, Medicaid and other publicly funded or subsidized health programs, that may result from the possible failure of the U.S. federal government in early 2014 to provide funding to avoid a partial or total shutdown of its operations and/or to suspend enforcement of or to increase the federal debt ceiling;
the impact of U.S. healthcare legislation enacted in 2010—the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act––and of any modification or repeal of any of the provisions thereof;
U.S. federal or state legislation or regulatory action affecting, among other things, pharmaceutical product pricing, reimbursement or access, including under Medicaid, Medicare and other publicly funded or subsidized health programs; the importation of prescription drugs from outside the U.S. at prices that are regulated by governments of various foreign countries; direct-to-consumer advertising and interactions with healthcare professionals; and the use of comparative effectiveness methodologies that could be implemented in a manner that focuses primarily on the cost differences and minimizes the therapeutic differences among pharmaceutical products and restricts access to innovative medicines;
legislation or regulatory action in markets outside the U.S. affecting pharmaceutical product pricing, reimbursement or access, including, in particular, continued government-mandated price reductions for certain biopharmaceutical products in certain European and emerging market countries;
the exposure of our operations outside the U.S. to possible capital and exchange controls, expropriation and other restrictive government actions, changes in intellectual property legal protections and remedies, as well as political unrest and unstable governments and legal systems;
contingencies related to actual or alleged environmental contamination;
claims and concerns that may arise regarding the safety or efficacy of in-line products and product candidates;
any significant breakdown, infiltration or interruption of our information technology systems and infrastructure;

uncertainties related to general economic, political, business, industry, regulatory and market conditions including, without limitation, uncertainties related to the impact on us, our customers, suppliers and lenders and counterparties to our foreign-exchange and interest-rate agreements of challenging global economic conditions and recent and possible future changes in global financial markets; and the related risk that our allowance for doubtful accounts may not be adequate;
any changes in business, political and economic conditions due to actual or threatened terrorist activity in the U.S. and other parts of the world, and related U.S. military action overseas;
growth in costs and expenses;
changes in our product, segment and geographic mix; and

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 anticipated results is subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary 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 Form
10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports and our other filings with the SEC.

Our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from past and projected future 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 1A, of that filing under the heading “Risk Factors.” We incorporate that section of that Form 10-K/A in this filing and investors should refer to it. Reference is also made to Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 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. In addition, clinical trial data are subject to differing interpretations, and, even when we view data as sufficient to support the safety and/or effectiveness of a product candidate or a new indication for an in-line product, regulatory authorities may not share our views and may require additional data or may deny approval altogether.

Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
 
Information with respect to legal proceedings and contingencies required by this Item is incorporated herein by reference to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

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 2012 Financial Report, which was filed as Exhibit 13 to our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

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 been 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.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
The information required by this Item is incorporated herein by reference to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Tax Matters
 
Additional information with respect to tax matters required by this Item is incorporated herein by reference to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5B. Tax Matters: Tax Contingencies in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
We account for income tax contingencies using a benefit recognition model. If our initial assessment fails to result in the recognition of a tax benefit, we regularly monitor our position and subsequently recognize the tax benefit: (i) if there are changes in tax law, analogous case law or there is new information that sufficiently raise the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of the position to "more likely than not"; (ii) if the statute of limitations expires; or (iii) if there is a completion of an audit resulting in a favorable settlement of that tax year with the appropriate agency. We regularly re-evaluate our tax positions based on the results of audits of federal, state and foreign income tax filings, statute of limitations expirations, changes in tax law or receipt of new information that would either increase or decrease the technical merits of a position relative to the “more-likely-than-not” standard.
 
Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but our estimates of unrecognized tax benefits and potential tax benefits may not be representative of actual outcomes, and variation from such estimates could materially affect our financial statements in the period of settlement or when the statutes of limitations expire, as we treat these events as discrete items in the period of resolution. Finalizing audits with the relevant taxing authorities can include formal administrative and legal proceedings, and, as a result, it is difficult to estimate the timing and range of possible changes related to our uncertain tax positions, and such changes could be significant.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The “Our Operating Environment” and “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” sections of the MD&A and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A are incorporated by reference herein. There have been no material changes from the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. Set forth below is an expansion of the disclosure that was included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10K/A concerning counterfeit products as a risk factor.

Counterfeit Products

A counterfeit medicine is one that has been deliberately and fraudulently mislabeled as to its identity and source. A counterfeit Pfizer medicine, therefore, is one manufactured by someone other than Pfizer, but which appears to be the same as an authentic Pfizer medicine. The prevalence of counterfeit medicines is a significant and growing industry-wide issue due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the widespread use of the internet, which has greatly facilitated the ease by which counterfeit medicines can be advertised, purchased and delivered to individual patients; the availability of sophisticated technology that makes it easier for counterfeiters to make counterfeit medicines; the growing involvement in the medicine supply chain of under-regulated wholesalers and repackagers; the importation of medicines across borders; and the relatively modest risk of penalties faced by counterfeiters. Further, laws against pharmaceutical counterfeiting vary greatly from country to country, and the enforcement of existing law varies greatly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. For example, in some countries, pharmaceutical counterfeiting is not a crime; in others, it may result in only minimal sanctions. In addition, those involved in the distribution of counterfeit medicines use complex transport routes in order to evade customs controls by disguising the true source of their products.

Counterfeit medicines pose a risk to patient health and safety because of the conditions under which they are manufactured—often in unregulated, unlicensed, uninspected and unsanitary sites—as well as the lack of regulation of their contents. Failure to mitigate the threat of counterfeit medicines, which is exacerbated by the complexity of the supply chain, could adversely impact

99

Table of Contents

our business, by, among other things, causing the loss of patient confidence in the Pfizer name and in the integrity of our medicines, potentially resulting in lost sales, product recalls, and an increased threat of litigation.

We undertake significant efforts to counteract the threats associated with counterfeit medicines, including, among other things, working with the FDA and other regulatory authorities and multinational coalitions to combat the counterfeiting of medicines and supporting efforts by law enforcement authorities to prosecute counterfeiters; assessing new and existing technologies to seek to make it more difficult for counterfeiters to copy our products and easier for patients and healthcare providers to distinguish authentic from counterfeit medicines; implementing business practices designed to protect patient health; promoting public policies intended to hinder counterfeiting; and working collaboratively with wholesalers, pharmacies, customs offices, and law enforcement agencies to increase inspection coverage, monitor distribution channels, and improve surveillance of distributors and repackagers. No assurance can be given, however, that our efforts and the efforts of others will be successful, and the presence of counterfeit medicines may continue to increase.
