2019 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE(6)

Pfizer’s updated 2019 financial guidance is presented below, reflecting the following:

• Anticipated August 1, 2019 formation of the Consumer Healthcare joint venture (JV) with GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK)(3):

– Includes revenue and expense contributions associated with Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business through July 31, 2019.

– Includes Pfizer’s pro rata share of the JV’s anticipated earnings, which will be recorded on a quarterly basis in Adjusted other (income)/deductions(2), from August 1, 2019 through the end of 2019. Pfizer will record its share of the JV’s anticipated earnings on a one-quarter lag; therefore, updated 2019 financial guidance for Adjusted other (income)/deductions(2) and Adjusted diluted EPS(2) now reflects Pfizer’s share of two months of the JV’s earnings that are expected to be generated in third-quarter 2019, which will be recorded by Pfizer in fourth-quarter 2019.

• Anticipated near-term completion of the Array BioPharma Inc. (Array) acquisition and completion of the Therachon Holding AG (Therachon) acquisition (see Corporate Developments section of this press release for additional details on these transactions).

A reconciliation of certain components of Pfizer’s updated 2019 financial guidance to its financial guidance provided in April 2019 is presented below. Amounts for revenues do not sum due to rounding.

	2019 Financial Guidance Provided in April 2019	Anticipated Impact of:		Updated 2019 Financial Guidance
		Pending Formation of the Consumer Healthcare JV(3)	Pending Array Acquisition and Completed Therachon Acquisition
Revenues ($ in billions)	$52.0 to $54.0	($1.5)	$0.1	$50.5 to $52.5
Adjusted Diluted EPS(2)	$2.83 to $2.93	($0.03)	($0.04)	$2.76 to $2.86

Revenues	$50.5 to $52.5 billion
	(previously $52.0 to $54.0 billion)
Adjusted Cost of Sales(2) as a Percentage of Revenues	20.1% to 21.1%
	(previously 20.8% to 21.8%)
Adjusted SI&A Expenses(2)	$13.0 to $14.0 billion
	(previously $13.5 to $14.5 billion)
Adjusted R&D Expenses(2)	$7.9 to $8.3 billion
	(previously $7.8 to $8.3 billion)
Adjusted Other (Income)/Deductions(2)	Approximately $200 million of income
Effective Tax Rate on Adjusted Income(2)	Approximately 16.0%
Adjusted Diluted EPS(2)	$2.76 to $2.86
	(previously $2.83 to $2.93)

Financial guidance for Adjusted diluted EPS(2) reflects $8.9 billion of share repurchases in first-quarter 2019. Dilution related to share-based employee compensation programs is currently expected to offset the reduction in shares associated with these share repurchases by approximately half.

CAPITAL ALLOCATION

• During the first six months of 2019, Pfizer returned $12.9 billion directly to shareholders, through a combination of:

– $4.0 billion of dividends, composed of dividends of $0.36 per share of common stock in each of the first and second quarters of 2019; and

– $8.9 billion of share repurchases, composed of $2.1 billion of open-market share repurchases in first-quarter 2019 and a $6.8 billion accelerated share repurchase agreement executed in February 2019.

• As of July 30, 2019, Pfizer’s remaining share repurchase authorization was $5.3 billion.

EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY

Dr. Albert Bourla, Pfizer’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We reported solid second-quarter 2019 financial results, with total company revenues up 2% operationally. Performance was primarily driven by 6% volume-driven operational growth in our Biopharma business, including continued growth of key brands such as Ibrance, Eliquis and Xeljanz as well as in emerging markets. This growth was partially offset primarily by the impact of generic and biosimilar competition for products that have lost marketing exclusivity, as well as the expected decline of Upjohn revenues in China.

“Today’s announcement that proposes a combination between Upjohn and Mylan N.V. (Mylan) in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction marks an important milestone in Pfizer’s evolution to be a more focused, global leader in science-based, innovative medicines that delivers breakthroughs that change patients’ lives and creates sustainable value for shareholders. The proposed transaction would unlock value by giving Pfizer shareholders majority ownership of a new company that brings together highly complementary businesses under a management team focused on leveraging scale, capabilities and geographic reach while maximizing revenue growth opportunities and free cash flow potential. Following the close of the proposed transaction, I expect Pfizer will be positioned to deliver revenue and Adjusted diluted EPS(2) growth through the mid-2020s that is among the industry leaders while continuing to allocate significant capital directly to shareholders, primarily through dividends,” Dr. Bourla concluded.

Frank D’Amelio, Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President, Business Operations and Global Supply, stated, “I was pleased with our second-quarter 2019 financial results, which keep us on track to deliver solid financial performance this year. We updated our 2019 financial guidance primarily for the anticipated August 1, 2019 formation of the Consumer Healthcare JV with GSK(3) and the anticipated near-term completion of the Array acquisition. Excluding the changes to guidance related to pending business development activities, our 2019 financial guidance is unchanged. Additionally, in the first half of 2019, we returned $12.9 billion directly to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, demonstrating our commitment to returning capital to our shareholders.”

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (Second-Quarter 2019 vs. Second-Quarter 2018)

Second-quarter 2019 revenues totaled $13.3 billion, a decrease of $203 million, or 2%, compared to the prior-year quarter, reflecting operational growth of $324 million, or 2%, more than offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $527 million, or 4%.

Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group (Biopharma) Revenue Highlights

Second-quarter 2019 Biopharma revenues totaled $9.6 billion, up 6% operationally, primarily driven by:

• Ibrance globally, up 27% operationally, primarily driven by:

– 67% operational growth in international markets, primarily reflecting continued strong uptake in developed Europe and Japan as well as in certain emerging markets following launches; and

– 12% growth in the U.S., primarily driven by cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) class market share growth and Ibrance’s continued CDK market share leadership in its approved metastatic breast cancer indications;

• Eliquis globally, up 26% operationally, primarily driven by continued increased adoption in non-valvular atrial fibrillation as well as oral anti-coagulant market share gains;
• Xeljanz globally, up 36% operationally, driven by:

– 103% operational growth in international markets, primarily reflecting continued uptake in the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) indication as well as from the recent launch of the ulcerative colitis (UC) indication in certain developed markets; and

– 21% growth in the U.S., reflecting volume growth from the launches of the UC and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) indications as well as continued growth in the RA indication, partially offset by higher rebating and unfavorable channel mix,

partially offset primarily by lower revenues for:

• Enbrel internationally, down 16% operationally, primarily reflecting continued biosimilar competition in most developed Europe markets as well as the unfavorable impact of timing of government purchases in certain emerging markets;
• Prevnar 13 in the U.S., down 10%, primarily reflecting lower government purchases in second-quarter 2019 for the pediatric indication as well as the continued decline in revenues for the adult indication due to a declining “catch up” opportunity compared to the prior-year quarter; and
• the Hospital business in developed markets, down 9% operationally, primarily due to the continued expected negative impact from generic competition for products that have previously lost marketing exclusivity as well as product supply shortages.

Upjohn Revenue Highlights

Second-quarter 2019 Upjohn revenues totaled $2.8 billion, down 7% operationally, primarily reflecting:

• 20% operational decline in China, primarily driven by the March 2019 implementation of a volume-based procurement program in certain cities, which had an anticipated unfavorable impact on Lipitor and Norvasc revenues. Given first-half 2019 operational growth of 13% and the outlook for the remainder of the year, revenues for Upjohn in China for the full year are expected to grow by low-to-mid-single-digits operationally; and
• 9% decline in the U.S., primarily driven by lower revenues for:

– Viagra, due to increased generic competition following Viagra’s December 2017 patent expiration; and

– Lyrica, primarily reflecting volume declines due to wholesaler destocking in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition that was expected to begin on July 1, 2019 but instead began on July 19, 2019.

Consumer Healthcare(3) Revenue Highlights

Second-quarter 2019 Consumer Healthcare(3) revenues totaled $862 million, up 1% operationally, reflecting 4% operational growth in international markets, partially offset by a 2% decline in the U.S.

* Indicates calculation not meaningful.

Pfizer recorded other deductions––net(1) in second-quarter 2019 compared with other income––net(1) in the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by:

• lower net gains on equity securities;
• lower income from collaborations, out-licensing and sale of compound/product rights;
• higher business and legal entity alignment costs;
• higher charges for certain legal matters; and
• higher net interest expense,

partially offset primarily by:

• higher royalty-related income.

Pfizer’s effective tax rate on Reported income(1) for second-quarter 2019 compared to the prior-year period was favorably impacted primarily by a tax benefit related to the settlement of a U.S. Internal Revenue Service audit for multiple tax years.

RECENT NOTABLE DEVELOPMENTS (Since April 30, 2019)

Product Developments

• Bavencio (avelumab) -- In May 2019, Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, which operates its biopharmaceutical business as EMD Serono in the U.S. and Canada, and Pfizer announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Bavencio in combination with Inlyta (axitinib) for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
• Eucrisa (crisaborole) -- In July 2019, Pfizer announced top-line results from a Phase 4 study (CrisADe CARE 1) which showed that crisaborole ointment, 2%, was well-tolerated in children aged 3 months to less than 24 months with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD), also known as eczema. The data from the trial are supportive of the primary study objective to examine the safety of crisaborole ointment, 2%, in this patient population, and are consistent with previous clinical trial experience. Crisaborole ointment, 2%, is currently approved in select countries for mild to moderate AD in patients two years of age and older.
• Lorbrena/Lorviqua (lorlatinib) -- In May 2019, Pfizer announced that the European Commission (EC) granted conditional marketing authorization for Lorviqua (available in the U.S., Canada and Japan under the brand name Lorbrena), as a monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has progressed after alectinib or ceritinib as the first ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, or crizotinib and at least one other ALK TKI.
• Prevnar 13 (Pneumococcal 13-valent Conjugate Vaccine [Diphtheria CRM197 Protein]) -- In June 2019, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) voted to revise the pneumococcal vaccination guidelines and recommend Prevnar 13 based on shared clinical decision making for adults 65 years or older who do not have an immunocompromising condition and who have not previously received Prevnar 13. This represents a change from the current CDC recommendation for routine use among all immunocompetent adults aged 65 years and older. This new recommendation means the decision to vaccinate should be made at the individual level between health care providers and their patients. Once the ACIP recommendation has been reviewed and approved by the CDC Director and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, it would be published in CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. Prevnar 13 continues to be routinely recommended for adults with immunocompromising conditions.
• Ruxience (rituximab-pvvr) -- In July 2019, Pfizer announced that the FDA approved Ruxience, a biosimilar to Rituxan®(7) (rituximab), for the treatment of adult patients with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and granulomatosis with polyangiitis and microscopic polyangiitis.
• Talzenna (talazoparib) -- In June 2019, Pfizer announced that the EC approved Talzenna as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with germline breast cancer susceptibility gene 1/2-mutations, who have human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Patients should have been previously treated with an anthracycline and/or a taxane in the (neo)adjuvant, locally advanced or metastatic setting unless patients were not suitable for these treatments. Patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer should have been treated with a prior endocrine-based therapy, or be considered unsuitable for endocrine-based therapy. This approval follows the medicine’s approval by the FDA in October 2018.
• Vyndaqel/Vyndamax (tafamidis) -- In May 2019, Pfizer announced that the FDA approved both Vyndaqel (tafamidis meglumine) and Vyndamax (tafamidis) for the treatment of cardiomyopathy of wild-type or hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (ATTR-CM) in adults to reduce cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular-related hospitalization. Vyndaqel and Vyndamax are two oral formulations of the first-in-class transthyretin stabilizer tafamidis, and the first and only medicines approved by the FDA to treat ATTR-CM. The recommended dosage is either Vyndaqel 80 mg orally once-daily, taken as four 20 mg capsules, or Vyndamax 61 mg orally once-daily, taken as a single capsule. Vyndamax was developed for patient convenience; Vyndaqel and Vyndamax are not substitutable on a per milligram basis.
• Xeljanz (tofacitinib)

– In July 2019, the FDA updated the U.S. prescribing information for Xeljanz to include two additional boxed warnings as well as changes to the indication and dosing for UC. These updates were based on the FDA’s review of data from the post-marketing requirement RA study A3921133.

– In June 2019, Pfizer announced positive results from ORAL Shift, a Phase 3b/4 study in adult patients with moderately to severely active RA. Patients who achieved low disease activity with Xeljanz extended release 11 mg once daily (Xeljanz XR) plus methotrexate (MTX) after a 24-week open-label run-in period, were randomized to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xeljanz XR as monotherapy after MTX withdrawal compared with Xeljanz XR with continued MTX. The study demonstrated non-inferiority of MTX withdrawal with Xeljanz XR compared to Xeljanz XR plus MTX at week 48 as measured by the primary endpoint, the change in the Disease Activity Score from randomization at week 24 to the end of the double-blind MTX withdrawal phase at week 48. The study results were presented during a late-breaking oral session at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology.

– In May 2019, Pfizer announced that the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) issued recommendations limiting the use of Xeljanz 10 mg twice daily (BID) in patients at increased risk of pulmonary embolism (PE) in the European Union (EU). These recommendations have been incorporated in updated EU product labeling for Xeljanz, which is provisional, while PRAC undertakes a review of all available evidence on the safety and efficacy of Xeljanz. The review is a result of the observation of increased risk of PE with tofacitinib 10 mg BID in an ongoing FDA post-marketing requirement study in individuals with RA who had one or more underlying cardiovascular risk factors. Specifically, it is recommended that tofacitinib 10 mg BID should not be prescribed to patients who are at high risk of PE. Additionally, patients who are already taking 10 mg BID and are at high risk of PE should be switched to alternative treatments. In the EU, tofacitinib 10 mg BID is an approved dose for patients with UC but it is not an approved dose for patients with moderate to severe RA nor for those with active PsA. The review is being carried out by PRAC, the Committee responsible for the evaluation of safety issues for human medicines, which will make a set of recommendations at the request of the EC. The PRAC recommendations will then be forwarded to the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. The final stage of the review procedure is the adoption by the EC of a legally binding decision applicable in all EU Member States.

• Zirabev (bevacizumab-bvzr) -- In June 2019, Pfizer announced that the FDA approved Zirabev, a biosimilar to Avastin®(8), for the treatment of five types of cancer: metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC); unresectable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic NSCLC; recurrent glioblastoma; metastatic RCC; and persistent, recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer.

Pipeline Developments

A comprehensive update of Pfizer’s development pipeline was published today and is now available at www.pfizer.com/science/drug-product-pipeline. It includes an overview of Pfizer’s research and a list of compounds in development with targeted indication and phase of development, as well as mechanism of action for some candidates in Phase 1 and all candidates from Phase 2 through registration.

• Abrocitinib (PF-04965842) -- In May 2019, Pfizer announced positive top-line results from a Phase 3 pivotal study (JADE MONO-1) evaluating the efficacy and safety of its investigational oral Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor, abrocitinib, in patients aged 12 and older with moderate to severe AD. JADE MONO-1 was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses (100 mg and 200 mg once daily) of abrocitinib monotherapy over 12 weeks. Top-line results showed that by week 12 the percentage of patients achieving each co-primary efficacy endpoint and each key secondary endpoint with either dose of abrocitinib was statistically significantly higher than placebo. In addition, the results demonstrate response to treatment for a statistically significant number of patients during the first two to four weeks following first dose. Safety results show that both doses of abrocitinib were well-tolerated, and there were no unexpected safety events. No cases of major adverse cardiovascular events, malignancies, or venous thromboembolism, including deep vein thrombosis and PE, were observed in the JADE MONO-1 study. The discontinuation rates due to an adverse event were low in each treatment arm (5.8% and 5.8% in 100 mg and 200 mg, respectively) compared to placebo (9.1%).
• Glasdegib (PF-04449913) -- In May 2019, the EMA validated for review the Marketing Authorization Application for glasdegib, proposed for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia in adult patients who are not candidates for standard induction chemotherapy.
• PF-06939926 -- In June 2019, Pfizer presented initial Phase 1b clinical data for PF-06939926, an investigational gene therapy to potentially treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) at the 25th Annual Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy Connect Conference. The primary endpoint of the ongoing Phase 1b study is to assess the safety and tolerability of this investigational gene therapy. Secondary endpoints of the clinical study include measurement of expression of mini-dystrophin distribution within muscle fibers by immunofluorescence and concentration by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. Pfizer aims to enroll approximately 12 boys with DMD who are ambulatory and aged 5 to 12. To date, 6 study participants ranging in age from 6 to 12 years have received the one-time intravenous dose of PF-06939926 at either 1e14 vector genomes/kilogram (vg/kg) or 3e14 vg/kg, as quantified using an inverted terminal repeat-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) drug product titer assay. As Pfizer continues to collect data from this ongoing open-label study in boys with DMD, it is also in the planning stages for a global, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study. This study is expected to begin in the first half of 2020 with commercial-scale manufacturing processes using multiple 2000-liter bioreactors. The anticipated Phase 3 study intends to leverage the learnings from the ongoing Phase 1b study in order to inform Pfizer’s decisions regarding the optimal dose, assay, method of administration, concomitant medications, participant selection and safety monitoring.
• PF-07055480 (SB-525) -- In July 2019, Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. (Sangamo) and Pfizer announced updated results from the Phase 1/2 Alta study evaluating investigational SB-525 gene therapy for severe hemophilia A. The data showed that SB-525 was generally well-tolerated and demonstrated a dose-dependent increase in Factor VIII (FVIII) activity levels. The first two patients treated at the 3e13 vg/kg dose rapidly achieved normal levels of FVIII activity as measured using a chromogenic assay, with no reported bleeding events, and the response continues to be durable for as long as 24 weeks, the extent of follow-up. The two patients more recently treated at the 3e13 vg/kg dose level are demonstrating FVIII activity kinetics that appear consistent with the first two patients treated in this dose cohort at similar early time points. Data from 10 patients treated with SB-525 were presented during an oral presentation on July 6 at the XXVII Congress of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis. SB-525 is being developed as part of a global collaboration between Sangamo and Pfizer.
• Tanezumab (PF-4383119)

– Based on an assessment of the totality of subcutaneous (SC) tanezumab data and an initial discussion with the FDA during second-quarter 2019, Pfizer and Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) have decided to pursue a U.S. regulatory submission for tanezumab 2.5 mg SC in patients with moderate-to-severe osteoarthritis (OA) that is expected to be filed with the FDA in fourth-quarter 2019 or early 2020, to be followed by potential regulatory filings in the EU and Japan. At this time, regulatory submissions are not planned for the tanezumab 5 mg SC dose in OA or in patients with moderate-to-severe chronic low back pain (CLBP). Pfizer and Lilly intend to maintain an open dialogue with regulatory authorities on potential future regulatory pathways for tanezumab.

– In July 2019, Pfizer and Lilly announced top-line results from a Phase 3 study evaluating the long-term safety and efficacy of tanezumab relative to the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug celecoxib in Japanese patients with moderate-to-severe CLBP. In the study (A4091063), 277 patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive tanezumab 5 mg SC or 10 mg SC every eight weeks, or celecoxib twice daily, for a treatment period of 56 weeks. The study also included a 24-week safety follow-up period, for a total of 80 weeks of observation. Patients enrolled were required to be on a stable regimen of celecoxib and experiencing some benefit from treatment. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the long-term safety of tanezumab, as measured by outcomes related to general, sympathetic and peripheral nervous systems and joint safety.

Preliminary data showed that the overall adverse event profile with tanezumab was generally consistent with a previously reported study of tanezumab in CLBP. The rate of composite joint safety events, which consisted of adjudicated outcomes of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis (RPOA) type 1 or type 2, subchondral insufficiency fracture, osteonecrosis or pathological fracture over the 80-week observation period was 1.6% in the tanezumab treatment arms, and 0% in the celecoxib arm. The incidence of RPOA observed in the tanezumab arms was 1.1%, with one case each of type 1 and type 2, and subchondral insufficiency fracture was observed in 0.5% of tanezumab-treated patients. There were no events of osteonecrosis or pathological fracture in the study. One patient in the study (taking tanezumab 10 mg) underwent total joint replacement. Detailed results from this study will be submitted to regulatory authorities as part of routine safety updates and will be shared in a future scientific forum.

Corporate Developments

• Pfizer and Mylan, a global generic and specialty pharmaceuticals company, today announced a definitive agreement to combine Upjohn and Mylan to create a new global pharmaceutical company. Under the terms of the agreement, which is structured as an all-stock, Reverse Morris Trust transaction, Pfizer shareholders would own 57% and Mylan shareholders would own 43% of the combined new company upon closing. The Boards of Directors of both Pfizer and Mylan have unanimously approved the transaction. The companies anticipate the transaction to close in mid-2020, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals, and approval by Mylan shareholders.

• In July 2019, Pfizer announced the successful completion of its acquisition of the privately held clinical-stage biotechnology company, Therachon. Under the terms of the transaction, Pfizer acquired Therachon for $340 million with an additional $470 million in additional payments contingent on the achievement of key milestones in the development and commercialization of TA-46. TA-46 is an investigational medicine for the treatment of achondroplasia, a genetic condition and the most common form of short-limb dwarfism. There are currently no approved treatment options for achondroplasia.
• In June 2019, Pfizer announced that it entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Array, a commercial stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted small molecule medicines to treat cancer and other diseases of high unmet need. Pfizer agreed to acquire Array for $48 per share in cash, for a total enterprise value of approximately $11.4 billion. Array’s portfolio includes the approved combined use of Braftovi (encorafenib) and Mektovi (binimetinib) for the treatment of BRAFV600E or BRAFV600K mutant unresectable or metastatic melanoma. The combination therapy has significant potential for long-term growth via expansion into additional areas of unmet need and is currently being investigated in over 30 clinical trials across several solid tumor indications, including the Phase 3 BEACON trial in BRAF-mutant metastatic CRC. Upon the close of the transaction, which is expected to occur in third-quarter 2019, Array's employees will join Pfizer and continue to be located in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Morrisville, North Carolina, as well as Boulder, Colorado, which becomes part of Pfizer's Oncology R&D network in addition to La Jolla, California and Pearl River, New York. Pfizer expects to finance the majority of the transaction with debt and the balance with existing cash. The transaction is expected to be dilutive to Pfizer’s Adjusted diluted EPS(2) by approximately $0.04 in 2019, dilutive by $0.04 -$0.05 in 2020, neutral in 2021, and accretive beginning in 2022, with additional accretion and growth anticipated thereafter.

For additional details, see the associated financial schedules and product revenue tables attached to the press release located at the hyperlink referred to above and the attached disclosure notice.

(1)		Revenues is defined as revenues in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Reported net income is defined as net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Reported diluted earnings per share (EPS) are defined as diluted EPS attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
(2)		Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted EPS are defined as reported U.S. GAAP net income(1) and its components and reported diluted EPS(1) excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs, discontinued operations and certain significant items (some of which may recur, such as restructuring charges, legal charges or net gains and losses on investments in equity securities, but which management does not believe are reflective of ongoing core operations). Adjusted cost of sales, Adjusted selling, informational and administrative (SI&A) expenses, Adjusted research and development (R&D) expenses and Adjusted other (income)/deductions are income statement line items prepared on the same basis as, and therefore components of, the overall Adjusted income measure. As described in the Financial Review––Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income) section of Pfizer’s 2018 Financial Report, which was filed as Exhibit 13 to Pfizer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, management uses Adjusted income, among other factors, to set performance goals and to measure the performance of the overall company. Because Adjusted income is an important internal measurement for Pfizer, management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this performance measure. Pfizer reports Adjusted income, certain components of Adjusted income, and Adjusted diluted EPS in order to portray the results of the company’s major operations––the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of prescription medicines, vaccines and consumer healthcare products––prior to considering certain income statement elements. See the accompanying reconciliations of certain GAAP Reported to Non-GAAP Adjusted information for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 and 2018. The Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted EPS measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS.
(3)		In December 2018, Pfizer entered into a definitive agreement with GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK) under which the two companies have agreed to combine their respective consumer healthcare businesses into a new consumer healthcare joint venture (JV) that will operate globally under the GSK Consumer Healthcare name. In exchange for contributing its Consumer Healthcare business, Pfizer will receive a 32% equity stake in the new company and GSK will own the remaining 68% of the new company. Upon formation of the JV, which is expected to occur on August 1, 2019, Pfizer will deconsolidate its Consumer Healthcare business and will begin to record its pro rata share of the JV’s earnings on a one-quarter lag basis and to receive dividends, which will be paid on a quarterly basis.
(4)		Pfizer’s fiscal year-end for international subsidiaries is November 30 while Pfizer’s fiscal year-end for U.S. subsidiaries is December 31. Therefore, Pfizer’s second quarter and first six months for U.S. subsidiaries reflects the three and six months ending on June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 while Pfizer’s second quarter and first six months for subsidiaries operating outside the U.S. reflects the three and six months ending on May 26, 2019 and May 27, 2018.
(5)		References to operational variances in this press release pertain to period-over-period growth rates that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. The operational variances are determined by multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, the current period U.S. dollar results by the current period average foreign exchange rates and then multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, those amounts by the prior-year period average foreign exchange rates. Although exchange rate changes are part of Pfizer’s business, they are not within Pfizer’s control. Exchange rate changes, however, can mask positive or negative trends in the business; therefore, Pfizer believes presenting operational variances provides useful information in evaluating the results of its business.
(6)		The 2019 financial guidance reflects the following:
		Pfizer does not provide guidance for GAAP Reported financial measures (other than revenues) or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP Reported financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, net gains or losses on investments in equity securities and potential future asset impairments without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP Reported results for the guidance period.
		Does not assume the completion of any business development transactions not completed as of June 30, 2019 (except for the anticipated August 1, 2019 formation of the Consumer Healthcare JV with GSK(3) and the anticipated near-term acquisition of Array), including any one-time upfront payments associated with such transactions.
		Includes revenues and expenses associated with Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business through July 31, 2019 as well as Pfizer’s pro rata share of anticipated earnings from the Consumer Healthcare JV with GSK(3) from August 1, 2019, which will be recorded on a quarterly basis in Adjusted other (income)/deductions(2). Pfizer will record its share of the JV’s anticipated earnings on a one-quarter lag; therefore, updated 2019 financial guidance for Adjusted other (income)/deductions(2) and Adjusted diluted EPS(2) reflects Pfizer’s share of two months of the JV’s earnings that are expected to be generated in third-quarter 2019, which will be recorded by Pfizer in fourth-quarter 2019.
		Reflects an anticipated negative revenue impact of $2.4 billion due to recent and expected generic and biosimilar competition for certain products that have recently lost or are anticipated to soon lose patent protection.
		Exchange rates assumed are a blend of the actual exchange rates in effect through second-quarter 2019 and mid-July 2019 rates for the remainder of the year. Reflects the anticipated unfavorable impact of approximately $1.2 billion on revenues and approximately $0.08 on Adjusted diluted EPS(2) as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar compared to foreign exchange rates from 2018.
		Guidance for Adjusted diluted EPS(2) assumes diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of approximately 5.7 billion shares, which reflects the weighted-average impact of share repurchases totaling $8.9 billion executed in first-quarter 2019. Dilution related to share-based employee compensation programs is currently expected to offset the reduction in shares associated with these share repurchases by approximately half.
