The company reported revenue of $2.0 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021, which was an increase of 9% compared with the fourth quarter of 2020. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $414 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, an increase of 15% and 16%, respectively, on a reported basis.

Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 excludes the net impact of $60 million for purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items.

On an operational2 basis, revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 9% compared with the fourth quarter of 2020, with no impact from foreign exchange. Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 5% operationally, excluding the impact from foreign exchange.

For full year 2021, the company reported revenue of $7.8 billion, an increase of 16% compared with full year 2020. Net income for full year 2021 was $2.0 billion, or $4.27 per diluted share, an increase of 24% and 25%, respectively.

Adjusted net income for full year 2021 was $2.2 billion, or $4.70 per diluted share, an increase of 21% and 22%, respectively, on a reported basis. Adjusted net income for full year 2021 excludes the net impact of $203 million for purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items.

On an operational basis, revenue for full year 2021 increased 15%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Adjusted net income for full year 2021 increased 19% operationally, excluding the impact of foreign exchange.

EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY
“In 2021, Zoetis delivered its strongest performance ever, thanks to our innovative, diverse and durable portfolio, and the talent and commitment of our colleagues,” said Kristin Peck, Chief Executive Officer of Zoetis. “We grew revenue 15% operationally, which is once again above the expected market growth rate in the $45 billion animal health market. We also grew our adjusted net income faster than revenue, at 19% operationally, while continuing to support investments in our latest product launches and future pipeline of innovations.”

“Looking forward, we believe this momentum sets us up for a strong 2022. We expect to continue growing revenue faster than the market in the coming year, driven by continued strength in petcare; expansion of our diagnostics portfolio internationally; and significant growth in both livestock and companion animal product sales in emerging markets, including China and Brazil. As a result, we are guiding to full-year operational growth of 9% to 11% in revenue,” said Peck.

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS
Zoetis organizes and manages its commercial operations across two regional segments: the United States (U.S.) and International. Within these segments, the company delivers a diverse portfolio of products for companion animals and livestock tailored to local trends and customer needs. In the fourth quarter of 2021:

INVESTMENTS IN GROWTH
Zoetis continues to gain market approvals for its innovative mAb therapies. Since its last quarterly earnings announcement, the company received approval in the U.S. for Solensia (frunevetmab), the first injectable mAb for the control of pain associated with osteoarthritis (OA) in cats; it is also approved in the European Union (EU), the U.K., Canada and Switzerland.

Additionally, the company introduced lifecycle innovations for key companion animal products from its dermatology and parasiticide portfolios. In December, Zoetis received marketing authorization in the EU and the U.K. for a new chewable version of Apoquel (oclacitinib), providing veterinarians and pet owners with a convenient solution to quickly and safely stop the cycle of pruritus in allergic dogs and clinical signs of atopic dermatitis in dogs. In parasiticides, the company received approval in the U.S. for a new label indication for Simparica Trio (sarolaner, moxidectin, and pyrantel chewable tablets), making it the first and only combination product demonstrated to prevent infections that may cause Lyme disease in dogs by killing deer ticks and black-legged ticks. The label expansion also included approval for the treatment and control of certain hookworms, providing a more comprehensive intestinal parasite control program.

On the livestock side of the business, Zoetis introduced new digital and data analytic solutions to help its U.S. cattle producer customers improve the productivity of their farms and ranches. Earlier this month, the company announced expansions to its precision animal health portfolio. Performance Ranch, a new cloud-based, cow-calf management software, simplifies tracking of individual animal performance and health product usage. The easy-to-use software will help cow-calf producers track and manage herd inventory, expenses, genetics and marketing opportunities. Additionally, the company’s innovative new BLOCKYARD™ platform, developed in cooperation with IBM Consulting and deployed on IBM’s Blockchain and Cloud platforms, provides a way to securely share information across production segments; this empowers cattle sellers, buyers, and industry participants by putting the valuable production, health and genetic information they need at their fingertips.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
Zoetis is providing full year 2022 guidance, which includes:

This guidance reflects foreign exchange rates as of late January. Additional details on guidance are included in the financial tables and will be discussed on the company's conference call this morning.

WEBCAST & CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS
Zoetis will host a webcast and conference call at 8:30 a.m. (ET) today, during which company executives will review fourth quarter and full year 2021 results, discuss financial guidance and respond to questions from financial analysts. Investors and the public may access the live webcast by visiting the Zoetis website at http://investor.zoetis.com/events-presentations. A replay of the webcast will be archived and made available on Feb. 15, 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of Zoetis with respect to: business plans or prospects, future operating or financial performance, future guidance, future operating models; supply chain; R&D costs, timing and likelihood of success; expectations regarding products, product approvals or products under development, expected timing of product launches; the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic and any recovery therefrom on our business, supply chain, customers and employees; expectations regarding the performance of acquired companies and our ability to integrate new businesses; expectations regarding the financial impact of acquisitions; future use of cash, dividend payments and share repurchases; tax rate and tax regimes and any changes thereto; and other future events. These statements are not guarantees of future performance or actions. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if management's underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. Zoetis expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. A further list and description of risks, uncertainties and other matters can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, including in the sections thereof captioned “Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and operational results (which exclude the impact of foreign exchange), to assess and analyze our results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are also useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release should not be considered alternatives to measurements required by GAAP, such as net income, operating income, and earnings per share, and should not be considered measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release and are posted on our website at www.zoetis.com.

Internet Posting of Information: We routinely post information that may be important to investors in the 'Investors' section of our website at www.zoetis.com, on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/zoetis and on Twitter@zoetis.

Because of the non-standardized definitions, non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components, and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

The guidance reflects foreign exchange rates as of late January 2022 and includes the assumed impacts as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar compared to weighted average foreign exchange rates from 2021, as noted above.

Reconciliations of 2022 reported guidance to 2022 adjusted guidance follows:

(millions of dollars, except per share amounts) Reported Certain significant
items and
acquisition-related
costs(d)
Purchase

Adjusted(b)
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue ~ 29.2% ~ (0.1%) ~ (0.1%) ~ 29%
SG&A expenses $2,100 to $2,150 ~ $(30) $2,070 to $2,120
R&D expenses $542 to $562 ~ $(2) $540 to $560
Interest expense and other (income)/deductions ~ $240 ~ $240
Effective tax rate ~ 20% ~ 20%
Diluted EPS $4.75 to $4.87 $0.03 to $0.05 ~ $0.29 $5.09 to $5.19
Net income attributable to Zoetis $2,250 to $2,315 $20 to $30 ~ $135 $2,415 to $2,470
(a)

Operational growth (a non-GAAP financial measure) excludes the impact of foreign exchange.

(b)

Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are defined as reported U.S. GAAP net income and its components and reported diluted EPS excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. Adjusted cost of sales, adjusted SG&A expenses, adjusted R&D expenses, and adjusted interest expense and other (income)/deductions-net are income statement line items prepared on the same basis, and, therefore, components of the overall adjusted income measure. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS.

(c)

We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted net income operational growth to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP reported financial measure because we are unable to calculate with reasonable certainty the foreign exchange impact of unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, potential future asset impairments and other certain significant items, without unreasonable effort. The foreign exchange impacts of these items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.

(d)

Primarily includes certain nonrecurring costs related to acquisitions and other charges.
