Explanatory Note

        This Amendment No. 1 to Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2002 includes unaudited restated consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001.

        The Company experienced a substantial buildup of wholesaler inventories in its U.S. pharmaceuticals business over several years, primarily in 2000 and 2001. This buildup was primarily due to sales incentives offered by the Company to its wholesalers. These incentives were generally offered towards the end of a quarter in order to incentivize wholesalers to purchase products in an amount sufficient to meet the Company's quarterly sales projections established by the Company's senior management. In April 2002, the Company disclosed this substantial buildup, and developed and subsequently undertook a plan to work down in an orderly fashion these wholesaler inventory levels.

        In late October 2002, based on further review and consideration of the previously disclosed buildup of wholesaler inventories in the Company's U.S. pharmaceuticals business and the incentives offered to certain wholesalers, and on advice from the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company determined that it was required to restate its sales and earnings to correct errors in the timing of revenue recognition for certain sales to certain U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. Since that time, the Company undertook an analysis of its transactions and incentive practices with U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. As a result of its analysis, the Company determined that certain of its sales to two of the largest wholesalers for the U.S. pharmaceuticals business should be accounted for under the consignment model rather than recognizing revenue for such transactions upon shipment, based in part on the relationship between the amount of incentives offered to these wholesalers and the amount of inventory held by these wholesalers. This determination involved evaluation of a variety of criteria and a number of complex accounting judgments.

        Following its determination to restate its sales and earnings for the matters described above, the Company also determined that it would correct certain of its historical accounting policies to conform the accounting to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and certain known errors made in the application of GAAP that were previously not recorded because in each such case the Company believed the amount of any such error was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. In addition, as part of the restatement process, the Company investigated its accounting practices in certain areas that involve significant judgments and determined to restate additional items with respect to which the Company concluded errors were made in the application of GAAP, including certain revisions of inappropriate accounting.

        Senior management set aggressive targets for each of the Company's businesses. The errors and inappropriate accounting which were corrected by the restatement arose, at least in part, from a period of unrealistic expectations for, and consequent over-estimation of the anticipated performance of, certain of the Company's products and programs.

        As a result of the foregoing, the Company restated its financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, including the corresponding 2001 and 2000 interim periods, and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002. The restatement affected periods prior to 1999. The impact of the restatement on such prior periods was reflected as an adjustment to opening retained earnings as of January 1, 1999.

        In connection with their audits of the restatement of previously issued annual financial statements which is described in Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, toand the accompanyingCompany's consolidated financial statements Bristol-Myers Squibbfor the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, identified and communicated to the Company delayed filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qand the Audit Committee two "material weaknesses" (as defined under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) relating to the Company's accounting and public financial reporting of significant matters and to its initial recording and management review and oversight of certain accounting matters.

2


        In the last year, the Company searched for and hired a new chief financial officer from outside the Company, restaffed the controller position, created a position of chief compliance officer and changed leadership at the Pharmaceuticals group.

        In response to the wholesaler inventory buildup and the other matters identified as restatement adjustments, under the direction of the Audit Committee, in the last year, senior management has directed that the Company dedicate resources and take steps to strengthen control processes and procedures in order to identify and rectify past accounting errors and prevent a recurrence of the circumstances that resulted in the need to restate prior period financial statements. The Company also revised its budgeting process to emphasize a bottom-up approach in contrast to a top-down approach. The Company has implemented a review and certification process of its annual and quarterly reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as processes designed to enhance the monitoring of wholesaler inventories. In addition, the Company is in the process of expanding its business risks and disclosure group, which includes senior management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and is taking a number of additional steps designed to create a more open environment for communications and flow of information throughout the Company. The Company continues to identify and implement actions to improve the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, including plans to enhance its resources and training with respect to the Company's financial reporting and disclosure responsibilities, and to review such actions with its Audit Committee and independent auditors.

        The restatement of previously issued financial statements reduced the Company's net earnings and diluted earnings per share in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 by approximately $411 million or $0.21, $240 million or $0.12 and $366 million or $0.18, respectively, and reduced the Company's net earnings and diluted earnings per share in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 by approximately $148 million and $174 million, respectively, or $.07 and $.09 per share, respectively, and increased the Company's net earnings and diluted earnings per share in the quarterly period ended SeptemberMarch 31, 2002 by approximately $271 million or $.14 and in the quarterly period ended June 30, 2002. As previously disclosed, this delay resulted in a breach2002 by the Company of delivery of Securities and Exchange Commission filing obligations under the 1993 Indenture between Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerlyapproximately $39 million or $.02.

        The Chase Manhattan Bank), as the trustee, and certain other credit agreements, and gave certain rights to the trustee under the 1993 Indenture and the respective lenders under such credit agreements to accelerate maturityCompany's use of the Company's indebtedness. Neitherconsignment model to account for certain sales to two of the trustee norlargest wholesalers for the respective lenders exercised their right to accelerate. By filing this Form 10-Q with the SecuritiesU.S. pharmaceuticals business is discussed in Item 2, Management's Discussion and Exchange CommissionAnalysis of Financial Condition and delivering a copyResults of Operations, in Part I of this Form 10-Q to the trustee under the 1993 Indenture and to lenders under these other credit agreements, the Company has cured the noncompliance with the abovementioned obligations in the 1993 Indenture and these other credit agreements. Accordingly, the debt outstanding under the 1993 Indenture and these other credit agreements no longer can be accelerated and has not been classified as current on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.10-Q/A.

For a description of the restatement, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included inand Amendment No. 1 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2001, which was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

        For a discussion of the Company's revenue recognition policy, reference is made to Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Accounting Standards, to the accompanying restated consolidated financial statements.

        This Form 10-Q/A amends and restates Items 1 and 2 of Part I and Items 1 and 6 of Part II of the original Form 10-Q, and no other information included in the original Form 10-Q is amended hereby. The explanatory caption at the beginning of each item of this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the nature of the revisions to that item.

        The Company did not amend its Annual Reports on Form 10-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for periods affected by the restatement that ended prior to December 31, 2001, and the financial statements and related financial information contained in such reports should no longer be relied upon.

        For a discussion of events and developments subsequent to June 30, 2002, see the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2002, which was previously filed with the SEC, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.10-Q/A, and the Company's subsequent filings.

NOTES TO RESTATED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Throughout these notes to restated consolidated financial statements, all referenced amounts for current and prior periods and prior period comparisons reflect the balances and amounts on a restated basis. For information on the restatement, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to these consolidated financial statements.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (the Company) prepared these unaudited restated consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim reporting. Under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required by GAAP for annual financial statements can be condensed or omitted. The Company is responsible for the restated consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. The10-Q/A. These restated consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's restated financial position at SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and the restated results of its operations for the three and nine month periodssix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. The statement of financial position at December 31, 2001, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 and cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 were restated. In addition, the results of operations and statement ofrestated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2002 reflected in the statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, were restated.and 2001. Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to these restated consolidated financial statements provides a summary discussion of the restatement. TheThese restated consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the restated consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Amendment No. 1 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2001 (2001 Form 10-K/A), which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent accountants, have performed a review of the unaudited restated consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q,10-Q/A, and their review report thereon accompanies this Form 10-Q.10-Q/A.

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore,Accordingly, the results and trends in these unaudited restated consolidated interim financial statements may not be the same as those for the full year.

The Company recognizes revenue for sales upon shipment of product to its customers, except in the case of certain transactions with its U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers which are accounted for using the consignment model. Under GAAP, revenue is recognized when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred. In the case of sales made to wholesalers (1) as a result of incentives, (2) in excess of the wholesaler's ordinary course of business inventory level, (3) at a time when there was an understanding, agreement, course of dealing or consistent business practice that the Company would extend incentives based on levels of excess inventory in connection with future purchases and (4) at a time when such incentives would cover substantially all, and vary directly with, the wholesaler's cost of carrying inventory in excess of the wholesaler's ordinary course of business inventory level, substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership do not transfer upon shipment and, accordingly, such sales should be accounted for using the consignment model. The determination of when, if at all, sales to a wholesaler meet the foregoing criteria involves evaluation of a variety of factors and a number of complex judgments. Under the consignment model, the Company does not recognize revenue upon shipment of product. Rather, upon shipment of product the Company invoices the wholesaler, records deferred revenue at gross invoice

8



sales price and classifies the inventory held by the wholesalers as consignment inventory at the Company's cost of such inventory. The Company recognizes revenue when the consignment inventory is no longer subject to incentive arrangements but not later than when such inventory is sold through to the wholesalers' customers, on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis.

Revenues are reduced at the time of sale to reflect expected returns that are estimated based on historical experience. Additionally, provision is made at the time of sale for all discounts, rebates and

9



estimated sales allowances based on historical experience updated for changes in facts and circumstances, as appropriate. Such provision is recorded as a reduction of revenue.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions are employed in estimates used in determining values of intangible assets, restructuring charges and accruals, sales rebate and return accruals, legal contingencies and tax assets and tax liabilities, as well as in estimates used in applying the revenue recognition policy and accounting for retirement and postretirement benefits (including the actuarial assumptions). Actual results could differ from the estimated results.

For a discussion of the Company's critical accounting policies, see Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 46,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to existing entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply to all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company is in the process of assessing what impact this pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements. Based on its preliminary analysis of the impact of FIN 46, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that ImClone Systems Incorporated will(ImClone) could meet the criteria to be considered a variable interest entity in relation to the Company. Accordingly, the Company has included the required transitional disclosures of FIN 46 in Note 5,4, Alliances and Investments, to these restated consolidated financial statements.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-TransitionCompensation—Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on

9



reported results. The provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for financial statements for fiscal years and interim periods ending after December 15, 2002. SFAS No. 148 willdid not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, as the adoption of this standard doesdid not require the Company to change, and the Company does not plan to change, to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45,Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (FIN 45). FIN 45 requires a guarantor to recognize a liability at the inception of the guarantee for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee and include more detailed disclosure with respect to guarantees. The types of contracts the Company enters into that meet the scope of this interpretation are financial and performance standby letters of credit on behalf of wholly-owned subsidiaries. FIN 45 is

10



effective for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The initial adoption of this accounting pronouncement willis not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities, effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. SFAS No. 146 addresses issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and/or disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for pursuant to the guidance that the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) has set forth in EITF Issue No. 94-3,Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring), and the SEC has set forth in the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 100,Restructuring and Impairment Charges. The initial adoption of this accounting standard willis not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, (SFAS No. 145), which superseded SFAS No. 4 and the requirement to aggregate all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt and to classify, if material, as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. As a result, the criteria in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 will be used to classify those gains and losses. SFAS No. 145 also amends SFAS No. 13 to require that certain lease modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions be accounted for in the same manner as sale-leaseback transactions. The Company does not believe the initial adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

As part of the restatement of previously issued financial statements, the Company adopted EITF Issue No. 01-9,Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor's Products), as of January 1, 2002, reflectingand now presents the cost of certain vendor considerations (e.g., cooperative advertising payments, shelving allowances and manufacturer's coupons) as reductions of revenue instead of sellingadvertising and marketingpromotion expenses. Financial information for all prior periods presented has been reclassified to comply with the new income statement classification requirements. Pursuant to EITF 01-9, certain advertising and promotion expenses were reclassified from advertising and promotion expenses to a reduction in net sales in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 in the amount of $20$45 million and $106$86 million, respectively, and in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2001 in the amount of $29$33 million and $104$75 million, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121,Accounting for the

10



Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30,Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 addresses accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and the appropriate methodology for recording an impairment loss. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143,Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.Under SFAS No. 143, the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation must be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The provisions of SFAS No. 143 are effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The

11



initial adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002, with certain provisions applied earlier (upon acquisition) to goodwill and other intangibletangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired and the recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets acquired other than in a business combination with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests. The goodwill arising from business acquisitions prior to July 1, 2001 was amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 15 to 40 years. This goodwill is no longer being amortized effective in 2002. Total restated expenses related to the amortization of goodwill included in earnings for the three and ninesix month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2001 were $19 million and $57$38 million, respectively, or $0.01 per share and $0.02 per share on a basic and fully diluted basis.basis for both periods.

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment upon adoption of the standard and annually thereafter. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is deemed to be impaired if the carrying amount of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. SFAS No. 142 requires that indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment using a one-step process, which consists of a comparison of the fair value to the carrying value of the intangible asset. Goodwill is deemed to be impaired if the carrying amount of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. Intangible assets are deemed to be impaired if the net book value exceeds the estimated fair value. The Company has completed the transitionalits goodwill impairment assessment and the annual reassessment, each of which indicated no impairment of goodwill.

Note 2: Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

The Company experienced a substantial buildup of wholesaler inventories in its U.S. pharmaceuticals business over several years, primarily in 2000 and 2001. This buildup was primarily due to sales incentives offered by the Company to its wholesalers. These incentives were generally offered towards the end of a quarter in order to incentivize wholesalers to purchase products in an amount sufficient to meet the Company's quarterly sales projections established by the Company's senior management. In April 2002, the Company disclosed this substantial buildup, and developed and subsequently undertook a plan to work down in an orderly fashion these wholesaler inventory levels.

In late October 2002, based on further review and consideration of the previously disclosed buildup of wholesaler inventories in the Company's U.S. pharmaceuticals business and the incentives offered to certain wholesalers, and on advice from the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company determined that it was required to restate its sales and earnings to correct errors in the timing of revenue recognition for certain sales to certain U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. Since that time, the Company has undertakenundertook an analysis of its transactions and incentive practices with U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. The Company has now determined that certain incentivized transactions with certain wholesalers should be accounted for under the consignment model rather than recognizing revenue for such transactions upon shipment. This determination involved evaluation of a variety of criteria and a number of complex accounting judgments. As a result of its analysis, the Company determined that certain of its sales to two of the largest wholesalers for the U.S. pharmaceuticals business should be accounted for under the

consignment model rather than recognizing revenue for such transactions upon shipment, based in part on the relationship between the amount of incentives offered to these wholesalers and the amount of inventory held by these wholesalers. This determination involved evaluation of a variety of criteria and a number of complex accounting judgments.

Following its determination to restate its sales and earnings for the matters described above, the Company also determined that it would correct certain of its historical accounting policies to conform the accounting to GAAP and certain known errors made in the application of GAAP that were previously not recorded because in each such case the Company believed the amount of any such error was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. In addition, as part of the restatement process, the Company investigated its accounting practices in certain areas that involve significant judgments and determined to restate additional items with respect to which the Company concluded errors were made in the application of GAAP, including certain revisions of inappropriate accounting.

Senior management set aggressive targets for each of the Company's businesses. The errors and inappropriate accounting which arewere corrected by the restatement arose, at least in part, from a period of

13



unrealistic expectations for, and consequent over-estimation of the anticipated performance of, certain of the Company's products and programs.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company has restated its financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, including the corresponding 2001 and 2000 interim periods, and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002. The restatement affectsaffected periods prior to 1999. The impact of the restatement on such prior periods iswas reflected as an adjustment to opening retained earnings as of January 1, 1999.

In connection with their audits of the restatement of previously issued annual financial statements and the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, have identified and communicated to the Company and the Audit Committee two "material weaknesses" (as defined under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) relating to the Company's accounting and public financial reporting of significant matters and to its initial recording and management review and oversight of certain accounting matters.

In the last year, the Company searched for and hired a new chief financial officer from outside the Company, restaffed the controller position, created a position of chief compliance officer and changed leadership at the Pharmaceuticals group.

In response to the wholesaler inventory buildup and the other matters identified as restatement adjustments, under the direction of the Audit Committee, in the last year, senior management has directed that the Company dedicate resources and take steps to strengthen control processes and procedures in order to identify and rectify past accounting errors and prevent a recurrence of the circumstances that resulted in the need to restate prior period financial statements. The Company also revised its budgeting process to emphasize a bottom-up approach in contrast to a top-down approach. The Company has implemented a review and certification process of its annual and quarterly reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as processes designed to enhance the monitoring of wholesaler inventories. In addition, the Company is in the process of expanding its business risks and disclosure group, which includes senior management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and is taking a number of additional steps designed to create a more open environment for communications

14



and flow of information throughout the Company. The Company continues to identify and implement actions to improve the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, including plans to enhance its resources and training with respect to financial reporting and disclosure responsibilities, and to review such actions with its Audit Committee and independent auditors.

For additional description of each restatement adjustment, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.A.

In addition to the restatement matters described in Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001
Form 10-K/A, and as part of the restatement of previously issued financial statements, the Company restated its acquired in-process research and development charge for the first quarter of 2002. On March 5, 2002, the Company's agreement with ImClone was revised. Under the revised agreement with ImClone, which is described in Note 5,4, Alliances and Investments, to these restated consolidated financial statements, the

14



Company agreed to pay ImClone a $200 million milestone payment, of which $140 million was paid upon signing of the revised agreement in March 2002 and $60 million was payable on the one year anniversary of signing. With respect to the $140 million paid in March 2002, the Company expensed $112 million (or 80.1%) as acquired in-process research and development and recorded $28 million (or 19.9%) as an additional equity investment to eliminate the income statement effect of the portion of the milestone payment for which the Company has an economic claim through its 19.9% ownership interest in ImClone. The Company has now determined that the $60 million portion of the milestone payment that was payable on the one year anniversary of signing the revised agreement should have been recognized in March 2002. Accordingly, the Company has corrected this error by restating its first quarter of 2002 acquired in-process research and development charge to expense $48 million (or 80.1%) of such portion of the milestone payment and recorded $12 million or (19.9%(or 19.9%) of such portion of the milestone payment as an additional equity investment. This additional equity investment was written-off as part of the Company's ImClone impairment charge, recorded in the third quarter of 2002. For additional information on the Company's equity investment in ImClone, see Note 5, Alliances and Investments, to these consolidated financial statements.

Furthermore, as        As part of the restatement of previously issued financial statements, the Company adopted EITF 01-9, which it originally began to apply in the third quarter of 2002, as of January 1, 2002. For additional information, see Note 1, Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards, to these restated consolidated financial statements.

As a result of the restatement, the Company delayed filing thisits Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2002 (third quarter 2002 Form 10-Q). As previously disclosed, this delay resulted in a breach by the Company of delivery of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)SEC filing obligations under the 1993 Indenture (Indenture) between Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly The Chase Manhattan Bank), as the trustee, and certain other credit agreements, and gave certain rights to the trustee under the Indenture and the respective lenders under such credit agreements to accelerate maturity of the Company's indebtedness. Neither the trustee nor the respective lenders exercised their right to accelerate. By filing thisThe Company has filed the third quarter 2002 Form 10-Q with the SEC and delivering a copy of this Form 10-Q to the trustee under the Indenture and to lenders under these other credit agreements, the Company has cured the noncompliance with the abovementioned obligations in the Indenture and these other credit agreements. Accordingly, the debt outstanding under the Indenture and these other credit agreements no longer can be accelerated and, therefore, has not beenis classified as currentlong-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

The impact of the restatement adjustments on the Company's December 31, 2001 consolidated balance sheet is beingwas reported in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, which is being filed concurrently with thisA. For a description of each restatement adjustment, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001 Form 10-Q.10-K/A.


Note 3: RestructuringEarnings Per Share

        Basic earnings per common share are computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share are computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year, plus the incremental shares outstanding assuming the exercise of dilutive stock options. The computations for basic earnings per common share and Other Items

In the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $79 million related to the reduction or elimination of non-strategic research efforts as well as the consolidation of research facilities. Of this charge, $41 million relates to termination benefits for approximately 500 employees dedicated to drug discovery. The remaining $38 million relates to lease termination and facility remediation. This charge was offset by an adjustment to prior period restructuring reserves of $90 million, of which $56 million was due to reduced estimates of separation costs, $22 million was due to cancellation of projects previously

18


provided for, and $12 million was due to higher than anticipated proceeds on sale of facilities. In addition, $17 million of inventory relating to these adjustments was included in cost of goods sold.

In the second quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a pretax charge of $57 million (as restated) related to termination benefits for workforce reductions and downsizing and streamlining of worldwide operations. Of this charge, $30 million relates to employee termination benefits for approximately 540 employees. The remaining $27 million relates to asset write-downs for the closure of a manufacturing facility in Puerto Rico and other related expenses. Severance actions are a result of efforts to rationalize and consolidate manufacturing and downsize and streamline operations. In addition, $2 million of inventory associated with the plans described above was included in cost of goods sold (as restated). The $57 million charge was offset by an adjustment to prior period restructuring liabilities of $47 million due to higher than anticipated proceeds from the sale of exited businesses and $8 million due to lower than expected separation payments.

In the first quarter of 2002, an adjustment to prior year reserves of $1 million was made to reflect reduced estimates of separation costs.

The following table presents a detail of the charges by segment and type for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The Company expects to substantially complete these activities by mid 2003. The Company does not allocate restructuring charges to its business segments.

As part of the restructuring activities, the Company identified approximately $69 million of research and development assets which will be abandoned by December 31, 2002. These assets will be depreciated through the date that they cease to be used. This depreciation expense will be recorded through research and development expense, consistent with its historical classification.

Note 5: Alliances and Investments

The terms of the Company's commercialization agreement with ImClone, Systems Incorporated (ImClone), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted cancer treatments, for the codevelopment and copromotion of ERBITUX* in the U.S., Canada and Japan were revised on March 5, 2002. Under the revised terms:

With respect to the $140$200 million paid in March 2002,of milestone payments the Company expensed $112agreed to pay ImClone, $160 million (or 80.1%) was expensed in the first quarter of 2002 as acquired in-process research and development, and recorded $28$40 million (or 19.9%) was recorded as an additional equity investment to eliminate the income statement effect of the portion of the milestone payment for which the Company has an economic claim through its 19.9% ownership interest in ImClone. As described in Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to these consolidated finanical statements, the Company has now determined that the $60 million paid in March 2003 should have been accrued for in March 2002. Accordingly, the Company has corrected this error by restating its first quarter of 2002 acquired in-process research and development charge to expense $48 million (or 80.1%) of the $60 million payment and recorded $12 million or (19.9%) of such payment as an additional equity investment.

In the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $379 million for an other than temporary decline in the market value of ImClone.ImClone based on the decline in value of ImClone's shares during 2002. The fair value of the equity investment in ImClone used to determine this chargerecord the impairment was based on the market value of ImClone shares on September 30, 2002. The equity investment in ImClone as of September 30, 2002 was $111 million.

As of December 31, 2001,June 30, 2002, ImClone had total assets of $474$544 million aand total stockholders' deficit of $5 million, and an accumulated deficit of $346$75 million. For the yearsix months ended December 31, 2001,June 30, 2002, ImClone recognized a $102$73 million net loss. The Company is in the process of assessing what impact FIN 46 could have on its consolidated financial statements. Based on its preliminary analysis of the impact of FIN 46, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that ImClone willcould meet the criteria to be considered a variable interest entity in relation to the Company.

In 1997, the Company entered into a codevelopment and comarketing agreement with Sanofi-Synthelabo (Sanofi) for two products: AVAPRO* (irbesartan), an angiotensin II receptor antagonist indicated for the treatment of hypertension, and PLAVIX* (clopidogrel), a platelet inhibitor. The worldwide alliance operates under the framework of two geographic territories: one in the Americas and Australia and the other in Europe

21



and Asia. Two territory partnerships were formed to manage central expenses, such as marketing, research and developments,development and royalties, and to supply finished product to the individual countries. At the country level, agreements either to copromote (whereby a partnership was

21



formed between the parties to sell each brand) or to comarket (whereby the parties operate and sell their brands independently of each other) are in place.

The Company acts as the operating partner for the territory covering the Americas (principally the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, and Latin American countries) and Australia and owns the majority financial controlling interest in this territory. As such, the Company consolidates all country partnership results for this territory and records Sanofi's share of the results as a minority interest expense, net of taxes, which was $58$52 million and $174$28 million for the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, and 2001, respectively, and $54$117 million and $114$68 million for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the three month periodsmonths ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded sales in this territory and in comarketing countries of $565$576 million and $493$339 million, respectively, and $1,176 million and $706 million for the nine month periodssix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded sales of $1,741 million and $1,199 million, respectively.

Sanofi acts as the operating partner offor the territory covering Europe and Asia and owns the majority controlling interest in this territory. The Company accounts for the investment in partnership entities in this territory under the equity method and records its share of the results as net income from unconsolidated affiliates (included together within minority interest, net of taxes). The Company recorded its share of equity earnings in this territory of $23$19 million and $62$23 million for the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $9$39 million and $35 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Note 5: Acquisitions, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations

DuPont Pharmaceuticals Acquisition

        On October 1, 2001, the Company acquired the DuPont Pharmaceuticals business (DuPont) from E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company for $7.8 billion in cash. The results of DuPont have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. DuPont is primarily a domestic pharmaceutical and imaging product business focused on research and development. This acquisition was financed with proceeds from the issuance of $1.5 billion of commercial paper, the issuance of $5.0 billion of medium-term notes and internal cash flows. The purchase price allocation was initially prepared on a preliminary basis and a final adjustment to the purchase price has been recorded.

        In connection with the acquisition, the Company incurred $575 million of restructuring liabilities as a result of severance and relocation of workforce, the elimination of duplicate facilities and contract terminations. Such costs were recognized by the Company as a liability assumed as of the acquisition date, resulting in additional goodwill. These liabilities consisted of $325 million of employee termination benefits for approximately 1,800 employees, $80 million related to the closure of facilities and $170 million for contract terminations. The $575 million originally recorded in accrued expenses was reduced to $458 million by December 31, 2001 and to $109 million by June 30, 2002. During the six month period ended June 30, 2002, the balance in this account was reduced by cash payments of $246 million and by an adjustment to reverse previously recorded liabilities of $103 million with a corresponding reduction in goodwill. This adjustment was primarily due to lower than expected separation costs, contract termination expenses and other facilities exit costs related to the acquisition.

Note 9: Litigation Matters

Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings are pending against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In accordance with SFAS No. 5,Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, the Company recognized $569 million and $659 million, respectively, related to litigation matters. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company recognized $42$90 million related to litigation matters. The most significant of thesethe Company's litigation matters are described below.

TAXOL® LITIGATION

In 1997 and 1998, the Company filed several lawsuits asserting that a number of generic drug companies infringed its patents covering methods of administering paclitaxel when they filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications seeking regulatory approval to sell paclitaxel. These actions were consolidated for discovery in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey (District Court). The Company did not assert a

25


monetary claim against any of the defendants, but sought to prevent the defendants from marketing paclitaxel in a manner that violates its patents. The defendants asserted that they did not infringe the Company's patents and that these patents are invalid and unenforceable.

In early 2000, the District Court invalidated most claims of the Company's patents at issue. On April 20, 2001, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court's summary judgment of the invalidity of all but two claims of the patents at issue. Those two claims relate to the low-dose, three-hour administration of paclitaxel in which the patient is given a specified regimen of premedicants before the administration of paclitaxel. The appellate court remanded those two claims to the District Court for further proceedings. In 2001, the Company filed an additional patent infringement suit against another company seeking to market generic paclitaxel.

In September 2000, one of the defendants received final approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)FDA for its Abbreviated New Drug Application for paclitaxel and is marketing the product. The FDA has since announced additional final approvals and sales of additional generic products have begun.

Some of the defendants asserted counterclaims seeking damages for alleged antitrust and unfair competition violations. The Company believed its patents were valid when it filed the suits, and the counterclaims asserted are believed to be without merit. The lawsuits with all defendants who asserted counterclaims have been settled, with the defendants agreeing to drop all claims relating to paclitaxel and the Company granting licenses to them under certain paclitaxel patent rights.

Since the filing of the initial patent infringement suits, six private actions have been filed by parties alleging antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims relating to the Company's actions to obtain and enforce patent rights. The plaintiffs seek declaratory judgment, damages (including treble and/or punitive damages where allowed), disgorgement and injunctive relief. In June 2002, a group of 32 state attorneys general, the District of Colombia,Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands brought similar claims. In September 2000, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) initiated an investigation relating to paclitaxel.

On January 7, 2003, the Company announced that it reached agreements in principle that would settle substantially all antitrust litigation surrounding TAXOL®. The amount of the TAXOL® antitrust settlements is expected to be $135 million; thismillion, the full amount of which was accrued in the third quarter of 2002. Certain important terms and conditions of the settlements remain to be finalized, and certain settlements require court approval. Final approval by the state attorneys general in the TAXOL® litigation is contingent upon further agreements relating to the terms of injunctive relief. Among the provisions remaining to be negotiated are the terms for incorporating certain claimants, including a number of health

26



insurers, into the existing settlement framework. The Company is in discussions with a number of insurers. Whether they will ultimately join the proposed settlement cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The Company has also reached agreement with the FTC staff on the terms of a consent order that would resolve the FTC's investigation. The proposed consent order is subject to review and approval by the FTC commissioners.

Other than with respect to the abovementioned proposed settlements, it is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the proposed settlements do not become final or do not resolve all

26


TAXOL®-related antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims, and if the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of ensuing litigation, the impact could be material.

BUSPAR LITIGATION

On November 21, 2000, the Company obtained a patent, U.S. Patent No. 6,150,365 ('365 patent), relating to a method of using BUSPAR or buspirone. The Company timely submitted information relating to the '365 patent to the FDA for listing in an FDA publication commonly known as the "Orange Book",Book," and the FDA thereafter listed the patent in the Orange Book.

Delisting and Patent Suits. Generic-drug manufacturers sued the FDA and the Company to compel the delisting of the '365 patent from the Orange Book. Although one district court declined to order the delisting of the '365 patent, another ordered the Company to cause the delisting of the patent from the Orange Book. The Company complied with the court's order but appealed the decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The appellate court reversed the district court that ordered the delisting. Concurrently, the Company sought to enforce the '365 patent in actions against two generic drug manufacturers.

Antitrust Suits. Following the delisting of the '365 patent from the Orange Book, a number of purchasers of buspirone and several generic drug makers filed lawsuits against the Company alleging that it improperly triggered statutory marketing exclusivity. The plaintiffs claimed that this was a violation of antitrust, consumer protection and other similar laws. The attorneys general of 36 states and Puerto Rico also filed suit against the Company with parallel allegations. The plaintiffs have amended their allegations to include charges that a 1994 agreement between the Company and a generic company improperly blocked the entry of generic buspirone into the market. Plaintiffs seek declaratory judgment, damages (including treble and/or punitive damages where allowed), disgorgement and injunctive relief.

Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) Proceedings. The Judicial Panel on MDL granted the Company's motions to have all of the patent and antitrust cases consolidated in a single forum. The court before which the buspirone litigations are now pending issued two opinions dated February 14, 2002. In the first opinion, the court found that the '365 patent does not cover uses of buspirone and therefore is not infringed. In the second opinion, the court denied the Company's motion to dismiss the federal antitrust and various state law claims. The second opinion allows the claims against the Company to proceed, except as to federal antitrust claims for damages accrued more than four years before the filing of the complaints.

Government Investigations. The FTC and a number of state attorneys general initiated investigations concerning the matters alleged in the antitrust suits and discussed above. The Company cooperated in these investigations. A number of attorneys general, but not all of them, filed an action against the Company, as noted above.

27



Proposed Settlements. On January 7, 2003, the Company announced that it reached agreements in principle that would settle substantially all antitrust litigation surrounding BUSPAR. The amount of the BUSPAR settlements is expected to be $535 million, of which $35 million was accrued in the fourth quarter of 2001, $90 million was accrued in the first quarter of 2002 and $410 million was accrued in the third quarter of 2002. Written settlement agreements with a number of parties have notnow been signed. Certain of these settlements require court approval. A number of health insurers have not agreed to the proposed

27


settlement framework. Whether these cases will ultimately be settled cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The Company has also reached agreement with the FTC staff on the terms of a consent order that would resolve the FTC's investigation. The proposed consent order is subject to review and approval by the FTC commissioners.

Other than with respect to the abovementioned proposed settlements of BUSPAR antitrust litigation, it is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the proposed settlements do not become final or do not resolve all BUSPAR-related antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims, and if the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of ensuing litigation, the impact could be material.

VANLEV LITIGATION

In April, May and June 2000, the Company, its former chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Charles A. Heimbold, Jr., and its former chief scientific officer, Peter S. Ringrose, Ph.D., were named as defendants in a number of class action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws and regulations. These actions have been consolidated into one action in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiff claims that the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/orand failed to disclose material information concerning the safety, efficacy and commercial viability of its product VANLEV during the period November 8, 1999 through April 19, 2000.

In May 2002, the plaintiff submitted an amended complaint adding allegations that the Company, its present chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Peter R. Dolan, its former chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Charles A. Heimbold, Jr., and its former chief scientific officer, Peter S. Ringrose, Ph.D., disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material information concerning the safety, efficacy, and commercial viability of VANLEV during the period April 19, 2000 through March 20, 2002. A number of related class actions, making essentially the same allegations, were also filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. These actions have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiff purports to seek compensatory damages, costs and expenses on behalf of shareholders.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of this litigation or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to this litigation. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of this litigation, the impact could be material.

PLAVIX* LITIGATION

The Company is part owner of an entity that is a plaintiff in two pending patent infringement lawsuits in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, entitled Sanofi-Synthelabo,

28



Sanofi-Synthelabo Inc., and Bristol-Myers Squibb Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Holding Partnership v. Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp., 02-CV-2255 (RWS) and Sanofi-Synthelabo, Sanofi-Synthelabo Inc. and Bristol-Myers Squibb Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Holding Partnership v. Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, LTD, and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Inc., 02-CV-3672 (RWS). The suits are based on U.S. Patent No. 4,847,265, which discloses and claims, among other things, the hydrogen sulfate salt of clopidogrel, which is marketed as PLAVIX*,

28


and on U.S. Patent No. 5,576,328, which discloses and claims, among other things, the use of clopidogrel to prevent a secondary ischemic event. Plaintiffs' infringement position is based on defendants' filing of their Abbreviated New Drug Applications with the FDA, seeking approval to sell generic clopidogrel prior to the expiration of the patents in suit.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possiblepotential loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If patent protection for PLAVIX* were lost, the impact on the Company's operations could be material.

OTHER SECURITIES MATTERS

During the period March through May 2002, the Company and a number of its current and former officers were named as defendants in a number of securities class action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws and regulations. The plaintiffs variously alleged that the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information concerning three different matters: (1) safety, efficacy and commercial viability of VANLEV (as discussed above), (2) the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers and the inventory levels of those wholesalers, and (3) the Company's investment in and relations with ImClone, Systems Incorporated (ImClone), and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. As discussed above, the allegations concerning VANLEV have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey and consolidated with the action pending there. The remaining actions have been consolidated and are pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The allegations of these remaining actions cover the period January 2001 through April 2002. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, costs and expenses.

In October 2002, a number of the Company's officers, directors and former directors were named as defendants in a shareholder derivative suit pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company is a nominal defendant. The suit alleges, among other things, violations of the federal securities laws and breaches of contract and fiduciary duty in connection with the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers, the inventory levels of those wholesalers and its investment in ImClone and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. Two similar actions are pending in New York State court. Plaintiffs seek damages, costs and attorneys' fees.

In April 2002, the SEC initiated an inquiry into the wholesaler inventory issues referenced above, which became a formal investigation in August 2002. In December 2002, that investigation was expanded to include certain accounting issues, including issues related to the establishment of reserves, and accounting for certain asset and other sales. In October 2002, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey announced an investigation into the wholesaler inventory issues referenced above, which has since expanded to cover the same subject matter as the SEC investigation. The Company is cooperating with both of these investigations. The Company's own investigation is also continuing.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these litigations and investigations or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these litigations and investigations. The Company is producing documents and actively cooperating with these

29



investigations, which investigations could result in the assertion of criminal and/or civil claims. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of these litigations and investigations, the impact could be material.

29


ERISA LITIGATION

In December 2002 and in the first quarter of 2003, the Company and others were named as defendants in a number of class actions brought under the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). The cases are pending in the U.S. District Courts for the Southern District of New York and the District of New Jersey. Plaintiffs allege that defendants breached various fiduciary duties imposed by ERISA and owed to participants in the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Savings and Investment Program (Program), including a duty to disseminate material information concerning: (1) safety data of the Company's product VANLEV, (2) the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers and the inventory levels of those wholesalers, and (3) the Company's investment in and relations with ImClone, and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. In connection with the above allegations, plaintiffs further assert that defendants breached fiduciary duties to diversify Program assets, to monitor investment alternatives, to avoid conflicts of interest, and to remedy alleged fiduciary breaches by co-fiduciaries. In the case pending in the District of New Jersey, plaintiffs additionally allege violation by defendants of a duty to disseminate material information concerning alleged anti-competitive activities related to the Company's products BUSPAR, TAXOL®, and PRAVACHOL. Plaintiffs seek to recover losses caused by defendants' alleged violations of ERISA and attorneys' fees.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these matters or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of these matters, the impact could be material.

AVERAGE WHOLESALE PRICING LITIGATION

The Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, is a defendant in a series of state and federal actions by private plaintiffs, brought as purported class actions, and complaints filed by the attorneys general of two states and one county, alleging that the manufacturers' reporting of prices for certain products has resulted in a false and overstated Average Wholesale Price (AWP), which in turn improperly inflated the reimbursement paid by Medicare beneficiaries, insurers, state Medicaid programs, medical plans, and others to health care providers who prescribed and administered those products. The federal cases (and many of the state cases, including the attorney general cases, which have been removed to federal courts) have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes and transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, In re Pharmaceutical Industry Average Wholesale Price Litigation (AWP MultiDistrict Litigation). On September 6, 2002, several of the private plaintiffs in the AWP MultiDistrict Litigation filed a Master Consolidated Complaint (Master Complaint), which superseded the complaints in their pre-consolidated constituent cases. The Master Complaint asserts claims under the federal RICO statute and state consumer protection and fair trade statutes. The Company and the other defendants moved to dismiss the Master Complaint, and motions were heard on January 13, 2003. The Nevada and Montana Attorneys General have moved to have their respective cases remanded to state court and argument on the motion is scheduled forwas held on March 7, 2003. The Company is also a defendant in related state court proceedings in New York, New Jersey, California, Arizona and Tennessee, and in one federal court proceeding in New York commenced by the County of Suffolk. The New York and New Jersey state court proceedings are currently stayed. The Company, and the other defendants, have

30



removed, or intend to remove, the other state court cases to federal court and will seek to have them transferred to the AWP MultiDistrict Litigation. The Company anticipates that the County of

30


Suffolk case will also be transferred there. Plaintiffs seek damages as well as injunctive relief aimed at manufacturer price reporting practices. These cases are at a very preliminary stage, and the Company is unable to assess the outcome and any possible effect on its business and profitability, or reasonably to estimate possible loss or range of loss with respect to these cases.

The Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, also has received subpoenas and other document requests from various government agencies seeking records relating to its pricing and marketing practices for drugs covered by Medicare and/or Medicaid. The requests for records have come from the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services in conjunction with the Civil Division of the Department of Justice, and several states.

The Company is producing documents and actively cooperating with these investigations, which could result in the assertion of criminal and/or civil claims. The Company is unable to assess the outcome of, or to reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to, these investigations, which could include the imposition of fines, penalties and administrative remedies.

BREAST IMPLANT LITIGATION

        The Company, together with its subsidiary Medical Engineering Corporation (MEC) and certain other companies, remains a defendant in a number of claims and lawsuits alleging damages for personal injuries of various types resulting from polyurethane-covered breast implants and smooth-walled breast implants formerly manufactured by MEC or a related company. The vast majority of claims against the Company in direct lawsuits have been resolved through settlements or trial. Likewise, claims or potential claims against the Company registered in the nationwide class action settlement approved by the Federal District Court in Birmingham, Alabama (Revised Settlement), have been or will be resolved through the Revised Settlement. The Company has established accruals in respect of breast implant product liability litigation. The Company believes that any possible loss in addition to the amounts accrued will not be material.

Note 10: Tax Matters

In        Subsequent to June 30, 2002, in the three months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $235 million due to the settlement of certain prior year tax matters and the determination by the Company as to the expected settlement of ongoing tax litigation. Duringlitigation, each of which existed as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company also established valuation allowances of $127 million related to certain state net deferred tax assets and $34 million related to certain state tax net operating loss carryforwards that it currently does not believe are more likely than not to be realized in the future.

In addition, subsequent to June 30, 2002, the Company reorganized the structure of its ownership of many of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. The principal purpose of the reorganization was to facilitate the Company's ability to efficiently deploy its financial resources outside of the U.S. The Company believes that the reorganization transactions were generally tax-free both inside and outside the U.S. It is possible, however, that taxing authorities in particular jurisdictions could assert tax liabilities arising from the reorganization transactions or the operations of the reorganized subsidiaries. It is not reasonably possible

31



to predict whether any taxing authority will assert such a tax liability or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to any such asserted tax liability. The Company would vigorously challenge any such assertion and believes that it would prevail, but there can be no assurance of such a result. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations, it is possible that the impact could be material.

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company

We have reviewed the accompanying restated consolidated balance sheet of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and its subsidiaries as of SeptemberJune 30, 2002, and the related restated consolidated statements of earnings, and comprehensive income and retained earnings for each of the three- and nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001 (restated), and the consolidated statement of cash flows for each of the nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 2001 (restated).2001. These restated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, 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.

As described in Note 2 to the accompanying restated consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated previously issued financial statements.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying restated consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We previously audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the restated consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001, and the related restated consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated March 18, 2003 included in the Company's amended 2001 Form 10-K/A, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those restated consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying restated consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the restated consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in this Item 2 has been revised to reflect the restatement and certain events occurring subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-Q, as well as to incorporate certain conforming changes.

Recent Developments

The Company experienced a substantial buildup of wholesaler inventories in its U.S. pharmaceuticals business over several years, primarily in 2000 and 2001. This buildup was primarily due to sales incentives offered by the Company to its wholesalers. These incentives were generally offered towards the end of a quarter in order to incentivize wholesalers to purchase products in an amount sufficient to meet the Company's quarterly sales projections established by the Company's senior management. In April 2002, the Company disclosed this substantial buildup, and developed and subsequently undertook a plan to work down in an orderly fashion these wholesaler inventory levels.

In late October 2002, based on further review and consideration of the previously disclosed buildup of wholesaler inventories in the Company's U.S. pharmaceuticals business and the incentives offered to certain wholesalers, and on advice from the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company determined that it was required to restate its sales and earnings to correct errors in the timing of revenue recognition for certain sales to certain U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. Since that time, the Company has undertakenundertook an analysis of its transactions and incentive practices with U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. The Company has now determined that certain incentivized transactions with certain wholesalers should be accounted for under the consignment model rather than recognizing revenue for such transactions upon shipment. This determination involved evaluation of a variety of criteria and a number of complex accounting judgments. As a result of its analysis, the Company determined that certain of its sales to two of the largest wholesalers for the U.S. pharmaceuticals business should be accounted for under the consignment model rather than recognizing revenue for such transactions upon shipment, based in part on the relationship between the amount of incentives offered to these wholesalers and the amount of inventory held by these wholesalers. This determination involved evaluation of a variety of criteria and a number of complex accounting judgments.

Following its determination to restate its sales and earnings for the matters described above, the Company also determined that it would correct certain of its historical accounting policies to conform the accounting to GAAPU.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and certain known errors made in the application of GAAP that were previously not recorded because in each such case the Company believed the amount of any such error was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. In addition, as part of the restatement process, the Company investigated its accounting practices in certain areas that involve significant judgments and determined to restate additional items with respect to which the Company concluded errors were made in the application of GAAP, including certain revisions of inappropriate accounting. For a description of each restatement adjustment and the impact of such adjustment on the Company's previously issued financial statements, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included inand Amendment No. 1 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2001 (2001 Form 10-K/A), which is beingwas previously filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.the SEC.

Senior management set aggressive targets for each of the Company's businesses. The errors and inappropriate accounting which arewere corrected by the restatement arose, at least in part, from a period of unrealistic expectations for, and consequent over-estimation of the anticipated performance of, certain of the Company's products and programs.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company has restated its financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, including the corresponding 2001 and 2000 interim periods, and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002. The restatement affectsaffected periods prior to 1999. The impact of the restatement on such prior periods iswas reflected as an adjustment to opening retained earnings as of January 1, 1999.

3334



In connection with their audits of the restatement of previously issued annual financial statements and the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, have identified and communicated to the Company and the Audit Committee two "material weaknesses" (as defined under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) relating to the Company's accounting and public financial reporting of significant matters and to its initial recording and management review and oversight of certain accounting matters.

In the last year, the Company searched for and hired a new chief financial officer from outside the Company, restaffed the controller position, created a position of chief compliance officer and changed leadership at the Pharmaceuticals group.

In response to the wholesaler inventory buildup and the other matters identified as restatement adjustments, under the direction of the Audit Committee, in the last year, senior management has directed that the Company dedicate resources and take steps to strengthen control processes and procedures in order to identify and rectify past accounting errors and prevent a recurrence of the circumstances that resulted in the need to restate prior period financial statements. The Company also revised its budgeting process to emphasize a bottom-up approach in contrast to a top-down approach. The Company has implemented a review and certification process of its annual and quarterly reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as processes designed to enhance the monitoring of wholesaler inventories. In addition, the Company is in the process of expanding its business risks and disclosure group, which includes senior management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and is taking a number of additional steps designed to create a more open environment for communications and flow of information throughout the Company. The Company continues to identify and implement actions to improve the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, including plans to enhance its resources and training with respect to financial reporting and disclosure responsibilities, and to review such actions with its Audit Committee and independent auditors.

The Company's accounting using the consignment model for certain of its sales to two of the largest wholesalers for the U.S. pharmaceuticals business under the consignment model is discussed below. See Note 2, Restatementbelow under Three Months Results of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements includedOperations—Pharmaceuticals and in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q for additional information on the restatement.A.

Throughout the following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, all referenced amounts for prior periods and prior period comparisons reflect the balances and amounts on a restated basis.

Three Months Results of Operations

Worldwide sales on a restated basis for the thirdsecond quarter were level at $4,537of 2002 decreased 4% to $4,127 million from $4,286 million in 2002 compared to $4,500 million2001. This sales decline was not impacted on a net basis by a change in 2001 (restated). These level salesvolume, and resulted from a 1% increase in volume, a 2% favorable impact fromdecrease due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations and a 2%3% decrease due to changes in selling prices. International sales increased 13%5%, including a 5%3% favorable impact from foreign exchange, and domestic sales decreased 5%9%. Sales for the quarter include approximately $394$374 million of sales related to the acquisition of the DuPont Pharmaceuticals business (DuPont) acquisition,, which was completed on October 1, 2001. The Company estimates that approximately $386Approximately $187 million of sales (calculated net of customary 2% early pay cash discounts) that were recognized in the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 had been restated from prior periods.

Pharmaceuticals

A significant portion of the Company's pharmaceuticalU.S pharmaceuticals sales is made to wholesalers. The Company experienced a substantial buildup of wholesaler inventories in its U.S. pharmaceuticals business over several years, primarily in 2000 and 2001. This buildup was primarily due to sales incentives offered by the Company to its wholesalers, including discounts, buy-ins in anticipation of price increases, and extended

34


payment terms to certain U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers. These incentives were generally offered towards the end of a quarter in order to incentivize wholesalers to purchase products in an amount

35



sufficient to meet the Company's quarterly sales projections established by the Company's senior management. The timing of the Company's recognition of revenue from its sales to wholesalers differs by wholesaler and by period.

Historically, the Company recognized revenue for sales upon shipment of product to its customers. Under GAAP, revenue is recognized when substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred. In the case of sales made to wholesalers (1) as a result of incentives, (2) in excess of the wholesaler's ordinary course of business inventory level, (3) at a time when there was an understanding, agreement, course of dealing or consistent business practice that the Company would extend incentives based on levels of excess inventory in connection with future purchases and (4) at a time when such incentives would cover substantially all, and vary directly with, the wholesaler's cost of carrying inventory in excess of the wholesaler's ordinary course of business inventory level, substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership do not transfer upon shipment and, accordingly, such sales should be accounted for using the consignment model. The determination of when, if at all, sales to a wholesaler meet the foregoing criteria involves evaluation of a variety of factors and a number of complex judgments.

Under the consignment model, the Company does not recognize revenue upon shipment of product. Rather, upon shipment of product the Company invoices the wholesaler, records deferred revenue at gross invoice sales price and classifies the inventory held by the wholesalers as consignment inventory at the Company's cost of such inventory. The Company recognizes revenue (net of discounts, rebates, estimated sales allowances and accruals for returns) when the consignment inventory is no longer subject to incentive arrangements but not later than when such inventory is sold through to the wholesalers' customers, on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. For additional discussion of the Company's revenue recognition policy, see Note 1, Accounting Policies, to the accompanying restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, as well as the Critical Accounting Policies section in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Part II of the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A.statements.

The Company has restated its previously issued financial statements to correct the timing of revenue recognition for certain previously recognized U.S. pharmaceuticals sales to Cardinal Health, Inc. (Cardinal) and McKesson Corporation (McKesson), two of the largest wholesalers for the Company's U.S. pharmaceuticals business, that, based on the application of the criteria described above, were recorded in error at the time of shipment and should have been accounted for using the consignment model. The Company has determined that shipments of product to Cardinal and shipments of product to McKesson met the consignment model criteria set forth above as of July 1, 1999 and July 1, 2000, respectively, and, in each case, continuing through the end of 20012002 and for some period thereafter. Accordingly, the consignment model was required to be applied to such shipments. Prior to those respective periods, the Company recognized revenue with respect to sales to Cardinal and McKesson upon shipment of product. Although the Company generally views approximately one month of supply as a desirable level of wholesaler inventory on a going-forward basis and as a level of wholesaler inventory representative of an industry average, in applying the consignment model to sales to Cardinal and McKesson, the Company defined inventory in excess of the wholesaler's ordinary course of business inventory level as inventory above two weeks and three weeks of supply, respectively, based on the levels of inventory that Cardinal and McKesson required to be used as the basis for negotiation of incentives granted. For additional discussion of the application of the consignment model to sales to Cardinal and McKesson, see Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A.

As a result of this restatement adjustment, net sales were reduced by $1,015 million, $475 million, and $409 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively, and increased by $321 million and $187 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively. The corresponding reduction ineffect on earnings from

35


continuing operations before minority interest and income taxes was a reduction of $789 million, $399 million and $322 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively, and an increase of $244 million and $168 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, respectively.

Separately from the above discussion, in March 2001, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with McKesson for provision of warehousing and order fulfillment services for the Company's

36



Oncology Therapeutics Network (OTN), a specialty distributor of anti-cancer medicines and related products. Prior to the restatement, the Company recorded in error sales of the Company's product under this agreement upon shipment of product.product to McKesson. The Company has restated its previously issued financial statements to account for these sales using the consignment model, as described more fully in Note 2, Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements, to the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A. The resulting reduction ineffect on net sales and earnings from continuing operations before minority interest and income taxes in 2001 was a reduction of $81 million and $77 million, respectively.respectively, in 2001, and an increase of $25 million and $24 million, respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2002 and no impact in the three months ended June 30, 2002.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2002, the Company's aggregate cost of the pharmaceutical products held by Cardinal and McKesson that were accounted for using the consignment model (and, accordingly, were reflected as consignment inventory on the Company's consolidated balance sheet) was approximately $119$152 million, of which approximately $1$2 million related to OTN. The deferred revenue, recorded at gross invoice sales price, related to the inventory of pharmaceutical products accounted for using the consignment model was approximately $1,157$1,476 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2002, of which approximately $39$56 million related to OTN. As a result of the restatement for the application of the consignment model, approximately $1,980 million of sales (calculated net of customary 2% early pay cash discounts) hasdiscount) had been reversed from the period 1999 through 2001, of which $846approximately $346 million is estimated to have beenwas recognized in the ninethree months ended SeptemberMarch 31, 2002, approximately $187 million was recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2002, approximately $549$862 million is expected to bewas recognized in the fourth quarter ofsix months ended December 31, 2002 and approximately $422 million is projected to be recognized in 2003, a significant portion of which is expected to be recognized in the first quarter of 2003. Sales to Cardinal and McKesson represent approximately 47%48% of U.S. pharmaceuticals net sales for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, on a restated basis.

The Company has determined that, although sales incentives were offered to other wholesalers and there was a buildup of inventories at such wholesalers, the consignment model criteria discussed above were not met. Accordingly, the Company recognized revenue when the products were shipped to these wholesalers. The Company estimates that the inventory of pharmaceutical products held by these other U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers in excess of approximately one month of supply in the case of the Company's exclusive products, approximately one and a half months of supply in the case of PLAVIX* and AVAPRO*, which are marketed under the Company's alliance with Sanofi-Synthelabo, and approximately two months of supply in the case of the Company's non-exclusive products, was in the range of no excessapproximately $550 million to $750 million at December 31, 2001, approximately $200$625 million of excessto $825 million at SeptemberMarch 31, 2002 and approximately $150 million to $350 million at June 30, 2002.

        The Company's estimate isestimates of inventories held by wholesalers are based on the projected prescription demand-based sales for suchits products, as well as itsthe Company's analysis of third-party information, including information obtained from certain wholesalers with respect to their inventory levels and sell-through to customers and third-party market research data, and the Company's internal information. The Company's estimate isestimates are subject to inherent limitations of estimates that rely on third-party data, as certain third-party information was itself in the form of estimates, and reflectsreflect other limitations.

In April 2002, the Company disclosed the substantial buildup of wholesaler inventories in its U.S. pharmaceuticals business, and developed and subsequently undertook a plan to work down in an orderly fashion these wholesaler inventory levels. To facilitate an orderly workdown, the Company's plan included continuing to offer sales incentives, at reduced levels, to certain wholesalers. With respect to McKesson and Cardinal, the Company entered into agreements for an orderly workdown that provide for these wholesalers to make specified levels of purchases and for the Company to offer specified levels of incentives through the workdown period.

The Company expects that the orderly workdown of inventories of its pharmaceutical products held by all U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers will be substantially completed at or before the end of 2003. The Company also expects that the consignment model criteria will no longer be met with respect to the

37



Company's U.S. pharmaceuticals sales to Cardinal and McKesson (other than the abovementioned sales

36


related to OTN) at or before the end of 2003. At December 31, 2002, the Company's aggregate cost of pharmaceutical products held by Cardinal and McKesson that were accounted for using the consignment model (and, accordingly, were reflected as consignment inventory on the Company's consolidated balance sheet) was approximately $58 million. At December 31, 2002, the deferred revenue, recorded at gross invoice sales price, related to such inventory was approximately $470 million, including approximately $39 million related to OTN. The Company estimates, based on the data noted above, that the inventory of pharmaceutical products held by the other U.S. pharmaceuticals wholesalers in excess of or below approximately one month of supply in the case of the Company's exclusive products, approximately one and a half months of supply in the case of PLAVIX* and AVAPRO*, which are marketed under the Company's alliance with Sanofi-Synthelabo, and approximately two months of supply in the case of the Company'scompany's non-exclusive products was in the range of approximately $100 million below this level of supply to $100 million in excess of this level of supply at December 31, 2002. This estimate is subject to inherent limitations noted above. The Company expects to account for certain pharmaceutical sales relating to OTN using the consignment model until the abovementioned agreement with McKesson expires in 2006.

The Company's financial results and prior period and quarterly comparisons are affected by the buildup and orderly workdown of wholesaler inventories, as well as the application of the consignment model to certain sales to certain wholesalers. In addition, with respect to sales not accounted for using the consignment model, the Company's financial results and prior period and quarterly comparisons are affected by fluctuations in the buying patterns of wholesalers, including the effect of incentives offered, and the corresponding changes in inventory levels maintained by these wholesalers. These wholesaler buying patterns and wholesaler inventory levels may not reflect underlying prescriber demand. For information on U.S. pharmaceuticals prescriber demand, reference is made to the table on page 38,39, which comparessets forth a comparison of changes in net sales on a restated basis to the estimated total (both retail and mail order customers) prescription growth for certain of the Company's primary care pharmaceutical products. The Company expects that when the consignment model is no longer being applied with respect to sales to Cardinal or McKesson, the buying patterns and fluctuations in inventory levels of these wholesalers will have an effect on the Company's financial results and prior period and quarterly comparisons.

Sales for the Pharmaceuticals segment on a restated basis in the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 decreased 2%8%, including a 2% favorable1% unfavorable effect of foreign exchange, to $3,687$3,274 million from $3,781$3,571 million in 2001 (restated).due to a decrease in domestic sales. Domestic pharmaceutical sales on a restated basis decreased 11%16% to $2,288$1,953 million in 2002 from $2,562$2,326 million in 2001, (restated) primarily due to generic competition for GLUCOPHAGE*, TAXOL®, and BUSPAR. U.S. sales for these products were $45$54 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2002 as compared to $588$600 million in 2001 (restated).2001. In addition, the decrease in 2002 domestic pharmaceutical sales was impacted by the buildup in the prior period of U.S. wholesaler inventory levels at those U.S. wholesalers not accounted for under the consignment model and the subsequent workdown.workdown in 2002. Approximately $187 million of sales (calculated net of customary 2% early pay cash discounts) recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2002 had been reversed from prior periods.

International sales for the Pharmaceuticals segment on a restated basis increased 15%6% to $1,399$1,321 million in 2002, including a 5% favorable2% unfavorable effect of foreign exchange, from $1,219$1,245 million in 2001 (restated).2001. Sales in Europe increased 22% to $849 million in 2002, including an 11% favorable effect of foreign exchange,10% primarily due to strong sales of PRAVACHOL across the region and the addition of new products from the DuPont acquisition. Japan realized sales growth of 19% to $112 million in 2002,2%, including a 2% favorable8% unfavorable effect of foreign exchange, led by growth in TAXOL® sales.

        Sales in Canada increased 34% as a result of strong performance of new products from the DuPont acquisition and PLAVIX*.

Sales for the third quarter of selected products in the second quarter of 2002 were as follows (2001 amounts reflect the restatement):on a restated basis:

Earnings before minority interest and income taxes for the Pharmaceuticals segment on a restated basis declined to $655$468 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2002 from $1,214$873 million in the same period in 2001 (restated).2001. The decline in earnings before minority interest and income taxes is primarily the result of generic competition, the buildup in the prior period of U.S. wholesaler inventory levels at those U.S. wholesalers not accounted for under the consignment model and the subsequent workdown generic competitionin 2002, and higher cost of products sold due to higher sales of lower-margin OTN products.

Nutritionals

Sales for the Nutritionals segment remained consistent with the prior year level of $445on a restated basis were $471 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002.2002, an increase of 11% from the prior year.

Other Healthcare

The Other Healthcare segment is comprised of the ConvaTec, Medical Imaging and the Consumer Medicines (U.S. and Japan) businesses.

Earnings before minority interest and income taxes for the Other Healthcare segment on a restated basis increased to $105$95 million in 2002 from $79$60 million in 2001 (restated) primarily as a result of the addition of the Medical Imaging business from the DuPont acquisition.

Total expenses on a restated basis for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, as a percentage of sales, increased to 97.5%82.5% from 64.4%70.5% in 2001, (restated). Duringlargely due to the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded several significant items that affected the comparability of the results of the periods presented herein. To make it easier to understand the underlying business, the Company has included a schedule of these expense (income) items as follows:

Cost of products sold on a restated basis, as a percentage of sales, increased to 36.5%35.5% from 29.3%29.5% in 2001. This increase is primarily due to higher cost of goods sold in the U.S. as a result of increased sales from the Company's OTN business and a decline in GLUCOPHAGE*, TAXOL® and BUSPAR sales due to generic competition. Cost of products sold in 2002 includes a $17 million reversal of prior period restructuring reserves for inventory write-offs related to actions that have been cancelled. Cost of products sold in 2001 includes $25 million of restructuring expense.

Marketing, selling, and administrative expenses increased 7% to $971 million in 2002on a restated basis decreased 2% from $906$961 million in 2001 (restated) primarily as a result of a $30to $937 million charge to sales force expense for the termination of a copromotion agreement in September 2002. As a percentage of sales, marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased to 21.4%22.7% in the thirdsecond quarter of 2002 from 20.1%22.4% in 2001.2001 due to lower sales in 2002.

        Expenditures for advertising and promotion increased 8%on a restated basis declined 12% to $302$345 million in 2002 from $280$392 million in 2001, (restated) due to increased supportprimarily as a result of PLAVIX*, AVAPRO* and ABILIFY*.reduced direct-to-consumer spending. As a percentage of sales, advertising and promotion expenditures increaseddecreased to 6.7%8.4% in the thirdsecond quarter of 2002 from 6.2%9.1% in 2001 (restated).2001.

Research and development expenditures on a restated basis increased 10%9% to $535 million from $485$527 million in 2001 (restated).2002 from $483 million in 2001. Pharmaceutical research and development spending increased 9% compared to7% over the prior year and, as a percentage of pharmaceutical sales, was 13.9%15.4% in the thirdsecond quarter of 2002 and 12.4%compared to 13.2% in the thirdsecond quarter of 2001.

        Other (income)/expense, net on a restated basis was $126 million of expense in the second quarter of 2002 compared with $6 million of income in the same period of 2001. The increased spending in research and developmentdecrease was primarily due to the integrationincrease in interest expense as a result of DuPont research facilities, which were acquiredthe issuance of $5 billion of debt in OctoberSeptember 2001.

In October 2002, the Company announced setting new priorities to ensure that it can fully realize the value of its research and development pipeline. The new priorities include rebalancing drug discovery and development to increase support for the Company's full late-stage development pipeline. They also include devoting greater resources to ensuring successful near-term product launches and increasing the Company's efforts on in-licensing opportunities. As part of this effort, the Company took a pre-tax charge of $79 million in the three months ended September 30, 2002, to streamline its drug discovery processes, including consolidation of several research facilities. Additionally, the Company decided to abandon certain research and development assets with a net book value of $69 million as of September 30, 2002. As the assets are still in use, they will be depreciated until their cease use date, which is expected to be no later than December 31, 2002.

The effective income tax rate on earnings from continuing operations before minority interest and income taxes on a restated basis was (219.1%)28.9% compared with 24.0%24.2% in 2001. The effective income tax rate in 2002 is due to lower pre-tax income in the U.S. primarily as a result of the litigation and asset impairment charges recorded in the third quarter of 2002, and an income tax benefit of $235 million due to the settlement of certain prior year tax matters and the determination by the Company as to the expected settlement of ongoing tax litigation.

Domestic pharmaceutical sales decreased 10% to $6,802$4,514 million in 2002 from $7,580$5,018 million in 2001, (restated) primarily due to generic competition for GLUCOPHAGE*, TAXOL®, and BUSPAR. U.S. sales for these products were $324$279 million in 2002 compared to $2,051$1,463 million in 2001. In addition, the decrease in domestic pharmaceutical sales in 2002 was impacted by the buildup in the prior period of U.S. wholesaler inventory levels at those U.S. wholesalers not accounted for under the consignment model and the subsequent workdown.

As described earlier, the Company accounts for certain domestic sales of pharmaceutical products to two of the largest wholesalers for the U.S. pharmeaceuticals business using the consignment model. The Company estimates that approximately $1,125workdown in 2002.

The decline in earnings before minority interest and income taxes is primarily the result of generic competition, the buildup in the prior period of U.S. wholesaler inventory levels at those U.S. wholesalers not accounted for under the consignment model in the prior period and the subsequent workdown generic competitionin 2002 and higher cost of product sold due to higher sales of lower-margin OTN products.

Nutritionals

Cost of products sold on a restated basis, as a percentage of sales, increased to 34.7%33.8% from 28.8%28.5% in 2001 (restated).2001. This increase is primarily due to higher cost of goods sold in the U.S. as a result of increased sales from the Company's OTN business and a decline in GLUCOPHAGE*, TAXOL®, and BUSPAR sales due to generic competition. Cost of products sold includes a $15 million reversal of prior period reserves for inventory write-offs related to actions that have been cancelled in 2002 and $25 million of restructuring expense in 2001.

Marketing, selling, and administrative expenses increasedon a restated basis decreased 1% to $2,820 million in 2002 from $2,780$1,874 million in 2001 (restated).to $1,849 million in 2002. As a percentage of sales, marketing, selling and administrative expenses increaseddecreased to 21.2%21.0% in the third quarter of 2002 from 20.8%21.1% in 2001, primarily due to lower sales in 2002.2001.

Expenditures for advertising and promotion on a restated basis declined 10%17% to $906 million from $1,011$604 million in 2002 from $731 million in 2001, (restated), primarily as a result of reduced direct-to-consumer spend.spending. As a percentage of sales, advertising and promotion expenditures slightly decreased to 6.8%6.9% in 2002 from 7.6%8.2% in 2001.

Research and development expenditures on a restated basis increased 7%5% to $1,564 million from $1,466$1,029 million in 2001 (restated) primarily due to the inclusion of DuPont research facilities for the first nine months of 2002.2002 from $981 million in 2001. Pharmaceutical research and development spending increased 5%3% over the prior year, and as a percentage of pharmaceutical sales, was 13.8% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and 12.7%compared with 12.9% in the same period in 2001.

Other (income)/expense, net on a restated basis was $181$165 million of expense in the first ninesix months of 2002 compared to $52with $31 million of income in the same period of 2001. The decrease wasexpense in 2002 is primarily driven by higherdue to interest expense as a result ofrelated to the issuance of $5 billion of debt in September 2001. The income in 2001 is mainly comprised of interest income, net of interest expense.

The effective income tax rate on earnings from continuing operations before minority interest and income taxes on a restated basis was 14.0%,27.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared with 24.0%23.9% in 2001.

Comparison to the Previously Announced Unaudited Non-GAAP Pre-Restatement Results

As a result of the restatement, the Company delayed issuing its financial statements for the third quarter. In its October 24, 2002 press release announcing the restatement, the Company included unaudited non-GAAP third quarter results prior to giving effect to the restatement. Such pre-restatement results were not in accordance with GAAP and were presented for informational purposes only. The Company's reported unaudited third quarter results set forth in this Form 10-Q differ from the previously announced unaudited non-GAAP pre-restatement results due to the effects of the prior period restatement adjustments. As noted above, the Company estimates that approximately $313 million of net sales that were recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2002 had been restated from prior periods.

The Company's unaudited third quarter results set forth in this Form 10-Q also differ from the previously announced unaudited non-GAAP pre-restatement results due to changes in certain accounting estimates relating to recorded assets and liabilities and certain subsequent events. Most of this impact relates to subsequent events, which the Company announced on January 7, 2003, concerning proposed settlement of substantially all antitrust litigation surrounding BUSPAR and TAXOL®. In connection with these proposed settlement developments, in the third quarter the Company accrued $410 million on a pre-tax basis for the BUSPAR settlements and $135 million on a pre-tax basis for the TAXOL® settlements. Income tax expense for the third quarter was favorably impacted by $235 million due to the settlement of certain prior year tax matters and the determination by the Company as to the expected settlement of ongoing litigation.

Financial Position

The Company's balance sheet at SeptemberJune 30, 2002 and its statement of cash flows for the ninesix months then ended reflect the Company'sits strong financial position. The Company continues to maintain a high level of working capital, which is $2.4 billion at September 30, 2002, increasing fromwas $2.1 billion at June 30, 2002 on a restated basis, representing no change from December 31, 2001 (restated). Net assets related to discontinued operations of $463 million are included in the balance sheet at September 30, 2001 (restated).2001.

Short-term borrowings were $799$785 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2002 compared with $174 million at December 31, 2001, primarily as a result of the issuance of commercial paper.

43


Long-term debt remaineddecreased to $6.1 billion at June 30, 2002 from $6.2 billion at December 31, 2001 year-end level of $6.2 billion.2001. In 2002, the Company's long-term credit ratings, from both Moody's and Standard and Poor's credit rating agencies, were reduced from Aaa/AAA to Aa2Aa2 and AA, respectively. In December 2002, Moody's placed the Company's long-term and short-term debt ratings under review for possible downgrade. Since then, the Company has held discussions with Moody's and has provided additional information requested to facilitate their review. At this time,In March 2003, Moody's confirmed the Prime-1 short-term ratings for the Company. The Company's long-term ratings remain under credit review with Moody's and no action has been taken.for a possible downgrade.

As a result of the Company's investment in manufacturing and research facilities, additions to fixed assetsproperty, plant and equipment for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002 increased to $714$477 million from $687$411 million for the same period of 2001.

Net cash provided byused in operating activities on a restated basis was $264$680 million in 2002 as compared to $3,436net cash provided by operating activities of $2,383 million in 2001 (restated).2001. The decreaseuse of cash in 2002 is attributable to income tax cash outflows of $2,046$1,547 million, which is primarily related to taxes on the gain arising from the sale of the Clairol business, and a decrease in deferred revenue, relating to sales of consignment product to certain wholesalers.business. The additional decrease in cash from operating activities is mainly due to lower net earnings. Net cash used in investing activities was $1,051 million in 2002 as compared to $7,935 million in 2001 (restated). In 2001, investing activities included $7,156 million of cash earmarked for the Company's acquisition of the DuPont Pharmaceuticals business. Cash flows from operating and investing (primarily operating) activities of discontinued operations for the ninesix months ended June 30, 2001 were $45 million in 2002 and $295 million in 2001.$119 million.

During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, the Company purchased 53.1 million shares of common stock at a total cost of $154$117 million. For the same period in 2001, the Company purchased 2422 million shares of common stock at a total cost of $1,320$1,272 million.

For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2002, dividends declared per common share were $.280 and $.840,$.56, respectively. For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2001, dividends declared per common share were $.275 and $.825,$.55, respectively.

Retirement Benefits

The recent decline in the global equity markets has resulted in a decrease in the value of the assets in the Company's pension plans. This decline is expected to adversely affect the Company's related accounting results in future periods through higher pension expense and increased cash funding requirements. In 2002, the Company contributed to its defined benefit plans a total of $547 million, including a contribution of $325 million in the fourth quarter of 2002.

The Company reduced its assumed discount rate for its major pension plans in response to a decline in corporate bond yields. The Company also reduced its 2003 expected long-term rate of return on U.S. plans assets from 10% to 9% following a reassessment of the long-term outlook. The lower assumed discount rate and expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, combined with negative asset returns in 2001 and

47



2002, is currently estimated to increase the Company's annual pension expense in 2003 by approximately $120 million compared to 2002.

For additional discussion of the Company's retirement benefits, see Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Company's 2001Annual Report on Form 10-K/A,10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 (2002 Form 10-K), which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.10-Q/A.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The market risk disclosures have not materially changed from those appearing in the Company's 2001 Form 10-K/A, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q.

The Company entered into approximately $1.5 billion notional amount of U.S. interest rate swaps in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges of fixed rate notes and serve to convert from a fixed rate on these notes to a variable rate of LIBOR plus 0.54%. Their maturity coincides with the maturity of the fixed rate notes, which are due in 2006.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company purchased $626 million notional amount of foreign exchange put options (primarily euro, Australian and Canadian dollars), sold a net $730 million notional amount of forward exchange contracts, primarily the euro, and sold a net $75 million notional amount of Japanese yen call options to partially hedge the exchange impact related to forecasted intercompany inventory purchases for up to the next 14 months.


Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As discussed above, the Company has restated its consolidated financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, including the corresponding 2001 and 2000 interim periods, and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002.

Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures.

In making this evaluation, the Company has considered matters relating to its restatement of previously issued financial statements, including the substantial process that was undertaken to ensure that all material adjustments necessary to correct the previously issued financial statements were recorded. The Company believes that certain of the restatement adjustments occurred because the Company's control processes and procedures related to the matters underlying such adjustments were not effective. In connection with their audits of the restatement of previously issued financial statements and the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company's independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, have identified and communicated to the Company and the Audit Committee two "material weaknesses" (as defined under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) relating to the Company's accounting and public financial reporting of significant matters and to its initial recording and management review and oversight of certain accounting matters.

50



In the last year, the Company searched for and hired a new chief financial officer from outside the Company, restaffed the controller position, created a position of chief compliance officer and changed leadership at the Pharmaceuticals group.

In response to the wholesaler inventory buildup and the other matters identified as restatement adjustments, under the direction of the Audit Committee, in the last year, senior management has directed that the Company dedicate resources and take steps to strengthen control processes and procedures in order to identify and rectify past accounting errors and prevent a recurrence of the circumstances that resulted in the need to restate prior period financial statements. The Company also revised its budgeting process to emphasize a bottom-up approach in contrast to a top-down approach. The Company has implemented a review and certification process of its annual and quarterly reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as processes designed to enhance the monitoring of wholesaler inventories. In addition, the Company is in the process of expanding its business risks and disclosure group, which includes senior management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and is taking a number of additional steps designed to create a more open environment for communications and flow of information throughout the Company. The Company continues to identify and implement actions to improve the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, including plans to enhance its resources and training with respect to financial reporting and disclosure responsibilities, and to review its actions with its Audit Committee and independent auditors.

Based on this evaluation, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of the evaluation date, such disclosure controls and procedures were reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Other than as described above, since the evaluation date by the Company's management of its internal controls, there have not been any significant changes in the internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

This Item 1 has been updated for events and developments occurring subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-Q. In addition, this Item 1 has been revised to incorporate certain conforming changes.

Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings are pending against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The most significant of these are described below.

TAXOL® LITIGATION

In 1997 and 1998, the Company filed several lawsuits asserting that a number of generic drug companies infringed its patents covering methods of administering paclitaxel when they filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications seeking regulatory approval to sell paclitaxel. These actions were consolidated for discovery in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey (District Court). The Company did not assert a monetary claim against any of the defendants, but sought to prevent the defendants from marketing paclitaxel in a manner that violates its patents. The defendants asserted that they did not infringe the Company's patents and that these patents are invalid and unenforceable.

In early 2000, the District Court invalidated most claims of the Company's patents at issue. On April 20, 2001, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the District Court's summary judgment of the invalidity of all but two claims of the patents at issue. Those two claims relate to the low-dose, three-hour administration of paclitaxel in which the patient is given a specified regimen of premedicants before the administration of paclitaxel. The appellate court remanded those two claims to the District Court for further proceedings. In 2001, the Company filed an additional patent infringement suit against another company seeking to market generic paclitaxel.

In September 2000, one of the defendants received final approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its Abbreviated New Drug Application for paclitaxel and is marketing the product. The FDA has since announced additional final approvals and sales of additional generic products have begun.

Some of the defendants asserted counterclaims seeking damages for alleged antitrust and unfair competition violations. The Company believed its patents were valid when it filed the suits, and the counterclaims asserted are believed to be without merit. The lawsuits with all defendants who asserted counterclaims have been settled, with the defendants agreeing to drop all claims relating to paclitaxel and the Company granting licenses to them under certain paclitaxel patent rights.

Since the filing of the initial patent infringement suits, six private actions have been filed by parties alleging antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims relating to the Company's actions to obtain and enforce patent rights. The plaintiffs seek declaratory judgment, damages (including treble and/or punitive damages where allowed), disgorgement and injunctive relief. In June 2002, a group of 32 state attorneys general, the District of Colombia,Columbia, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands brought similar claims. In September 2000, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) initiated an investigation relating to paclitaxel.

On January 7, 2003, the Company announced that it reached agreements in principle that would settle substantially all antitrust litigation surrounding TAXOL®. The amount of the TAXOL® antitrust settlements is expected to be $135 million; thismillion, the full amount of which was accrued in the third quarter of 2002. Certain important terms and conditions of the settlements remain to be finalized, and certain settlements require court approval. Final approval by the state attorneys general in the TAXOL® litigation is contingent upon further agreements relating to the terms of injunctive relief. Among the provisions remaining to be negotiated are the terms for incorporating certain claimants, including a number of health insurers, into the existing settlement framework. The Company is in discussions with a number of insurers. Whether they will ultimately join the proposed settlement cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

5247



The Company has also reached agreement with the FTC staff on the terms of a consent order that would resolve the FTC's investigation. The proposed consent order is subject to review and approval by the FTC commissioners.

Other than with respect to the abovementioned proposed settlements, it is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the proposed settlements do not become final or do not resolve all TAXOL®-related antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims, and if the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of ensuing litigation, the impact could be material.

BUSPAR LITIGATION

On November 21, 2000, the Company obtained a patent, U.S. Patent No. 6,150,365 ('365 patent), relating to a method of using BUSPAR or buspirone. The Company timely submitted information relating to the '365 patent to the FDA for listing in an FDA publication commonly known as the "Orange Book", and the FDA thereafter listed the patent in the Orange Book.

Delisting and Patent Suits. Generic-drug manufacturers sued the FDA and the Company to compel the delisting of the '365 patent from the Orange Book. Although one district court declined to order the delisting of the '365 patent, another ordered the Company to cause the delisting of the patent from the Orange Book. The Company complied with the court's order but appealed the decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The appellate court reversed the district court that ordered the delisting. Concurrently, the Company sought to enforce the '365 patent in actions against two generic drug manufacturers.

Antitrust Suits. Following the delisting of the '365 patent from the Orange Book, a number of purchasers of buspirone and several generic drug makers filed lawsuits against the Company alleging that it improperly triggered statutory marketing exclusivity. The plaintiffs claimed that this was a violation of antitrust, consumer protection and other similar laws. The attorneys general of 36 states and Puerto Rico also filed suit against the Company with parallel allegations. The plaintiffs have amended their allegations to include charges that a 1994 agreement between the Company and a generic company improperly blocked the entry of generic buspirone into the market. Plaintiffs seek declaratory judgment, damages (including treble and/or punitive damages where allowed), disgorgement and injunctive relief.

Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) Proceedings. The Judicial Panel on MDL granted the Company's motions to have all of the patent and antitrust cases consolidated in a single forum. The court before which the buspirone litigations are now pending issued two opinions dated February 14, 2002. In the first opinion, the court found that the '365 patent does not cover uses of buspirone and therefore is not infringed. In the second opinion, the court denied the Company's motion to dismiss the federal antitrust and various state law claims. The second opinion allows the claims against the Company to proceed, except as to federal antitrust claims for damages accrued more than four years before the filing of the complaints.

Government Investigations. The FTC and a number of state attorneys general initiated investigations concerning the matters alleged in the antitrust suits and discussed above. The Company cooperated in these investigations. A number of attorneys general, but not all of them, filed an action against the Company, as noted above.

Proposed Settlements. On January 7, 2003, the Company announced that it reached agreements in principle that would settle substantially all antitrust litigation surrounding BUSPAR. The amount of the BUSPAR settlements is expected to be $535 million, of which $35 million was accrued in the fourth quarter of 2001, $90 million was accrued in the first quarter of 2002, and $410 million was accrued in the third quarter of 2002. Written settlement agreements with a number of parties have notnow been signed. Certain of these settlements require court approval. A number of health insurers have not agreed to the proposed

53



settlement framework. Whether these cases will ultimately be settled cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

48


The Company has also reached agreement with the FTC staff on the terms of a consent order that would resolve the FTC's investigation. The proposed consent order is subject to review and approval by the FTC commissioners.

Other than with respect to the abovementioned proposed settlements of BUSPAR antitrust litigation, it is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the proposed settlements do not become final or do not resolve all BUSPAR-related antitrust, consumer protection and similar claims, and if the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of ensuing litigation, the impact could be material.

VANLEV LITIGATION

In April, May and June 2000, the Company, its former chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Charles A. Heimbold, Jr., and its former chief scientific officer, Peter S. Ringrose, Ph.D., were named as defendants in a number of class action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws and regulations. These actions have been consolidated into one action in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiff claims that the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material information concerning the safety, efficacy and commercial viability of its product VANLEV during the period November 8, 1999 through April 19, 2000.

In May 2002, the plaintiff submitted an amended complaint adding allegations that the Company, its present chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Peter R. Dolan, its former chairman of the board and chief executive officer, Charles A. Heimbold, Jr., and its former chief scientific officer, Peter S. Ringrose, Ph.D., disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material information concerning the safety, efficacy, and commercial viability of VANLEV during the period April 19, 2000 through March 20, 2002. A number of related class actions, making essentially the same allegations, were also filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. These actions have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiff purports to seek compensatory damages, costs and expenses on behalf of shareholders.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of this litigation or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to this litigation. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of this litigation, the impact could be material.

PLAVIX* LITIGATION

The Company is part owner of an entity that is a plaintiff in two pending patent infringement lawsuits in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, entitled Sanofi-Synthelabo, Sanofi-Synthelabo Inc., and Bristol-Myers Squibb Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Holding Partnership v. Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp., 02-CV-2255 (RWS) and Sanofi-Synthelabo, Sanofi-Synthelabo Inc. and Bristol-Myers Squibb Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Holding Partnership v. Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, LTD, and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Inc., 02-CV-3672 (RWS). The suits are based on U.S. Patent No. 4,847,265, which discloses and claims, among other things, the hydrogen sulfate salt of clopidogrel, which is marketed as PLAVIX*, and on U.S. Patent No. 5,576,328, which discloses and claims, among other things, the use of clopidogrel to prevent a secondary ischemic event. Plaintiffs' infringement position is based on defendants' filing of their Abbreviated New Drug Applications with the FDA, seeking approval to sell generic clopidogrel prior to the expiration of the patents in suit.

54



It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these lawsuits or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If patent protection for PLAVIX* were lost, the impact on the Company's operations could be material.

OTHER SECURITIES MATTERS

During the period March through May 2002, the Company and a number of its current and former officers were named as defendants in a number of securities class action lawsuits alleging violations of

49


federal securities laws and regulations. The plaintiffs variously alleged that the defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information concerning three different matters: (1) safety, efficacy and commercial viability of VANLEV (as discussed above), (2) the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers and the inventory levels of those wholesalers, and (3) the Company's investment in and relations with ImClone Systems IncorporateIncorporated (ImClone), and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. As discussed above, the allegations concerning VANLEV have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey and consolidated with the action pending there. The remaining actions have been consolidated and are pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The allegations of these remaining actions cover the period January 2001 through April 2002. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, costs and expenses.

In October 2002, a number of the Company's officers, directors and former directors were named as defendants in a shareholder derivative suit pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company is a nominal defendant. The suit alleges, among other things, violations of the federal securities laws and breaches of contract and fiduciary duty in connection with the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers, the inventory levels of those wholesalers and its investment in ImClone and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. Two similar actions are pending in New York State court. Plaintiffs seek damages, costs and attorneys' fees.

In April 2002, the SEC initiated an inquiry into the wholesaler inventory issues referenced above, which became a formal investigation in August 2002. In December 2002, that investigation was expanded to include certain accounting issues, including issues related to the establishment of reserves, and accounting for certain asset and other sales. In October 2002, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey announced an investigation into the wholesaler inventory issues referenced above, which has since expanded to cover the same subject matter as the SEC investigation. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to correct the previously issued financial statements have been recorded as part of the restatement, and the Company does not expect any further restatement. As described below, however, the Company cannot reasonably assess the final outcome of these investigations at this time. The Company is cooperating with both of these investigations. The Company's own investigation is also continuing.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these litigations and investigations or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these litigations and investigations. The Company is producing documents and actively cooperating with these investigations, which investigations could result in the assertion of criminal and/or civil claims. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of these litigations and investigations, the impact could be material.

ERISA LITIGATION

In December 2002 and in the first quarter of 2003, the Company and others were named as defendants in a number of class actions brought under the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). The cases are pending in the U.S. District Courts for the Southern District of New York and the District of New Jersey. Plaintiffs allege that defendants breached various fiduciary duties imposed by ERISA and owed to participants in the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Savings and Investment Program (Program), including a duty to disseminate material information concerning: (1) safety data of the Company's product

55



VANLEV, (2) the Company's sales incentives to certain wholesalers and the inventory levels of those wholesalers, and (3) the Company's investment in and relations with ImClone, and ImClone's product, ERBITUX*. In connection with the above allegations, plaintiffs further assert that defendants breached fiduciary duties to diversify Program assets, to monitor investment alternatives, to avoid conflicts of interest, and to remedy alleged fiduciary breaches by co-fiduciaries. In the case pending in the District of New Jersey, plaintiffs additionally allege violation by defendants of a duty to disseminate material information concerning alleged anti-competitive activities related to the Company's products

50


BUSPAR, TAXOL®, and PRAVACHOL. Plaintiffs seek to recover losses caused by defendants' alleged violations of ERISA and attorneys' fees.

It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the final outcome of these matters or reasonably to estimate the possible loss or range of loss with respect to these lawsuits. If the Company were not to prevail in final, non-appealable determinations of these matters, the impact could be material.

AVERAGE WHOLESALE PRICING LITIGATION

The Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, is a defendant in a series of state and federal actions by private plaintiffs, brought as purported class actions, and complaints filed by the attorneys general of two states and one county, alleging that the manufacturers' reporting of prices for certain products has resulted in a false and overstated Average Wholesale Price (AWP), which in turn improperly inflated the reimbursement paid by Medicare beneficiaries, insurers, state Medicaid programs, medical plans, and others to health care providers who prescribed and administered those products. The federal cases (and many of the state cases, including the attorney general cases, which have been removed to federal courts) have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes and transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, In re Pharmaceutical Industry Average Wholesale Price Litigation (AWP MultiDistrict Litigation). On September 6, 2002, several of the private plaintiffs in the AWP MultiDistrict Litigation filed a Master Consolidated Complaint (Master Complaint), which superseded the complaints in their pre-consolidated constituent cases. The Master Complaint asserts claims under the federal RICO statute and state consumer protection and fair trade statutes. The Company and the other defendants moved to dismiss the Master Complaint, and motions were heard on January 13, 2003. The Nevada and Montana Attorneys General have moved to have their respective cases remanded to state court and argument on the motion is scheduled forwas held on March 7, 2003. The Company is also a defendant in related state court proceedings in New York, New Jersey, California, Arizona and Tennessee, and in one federal court proceeding in New York commenced by the County of Suffolk. The New York and New Jersey state court proceedings are currently stayed. The Company, and the other defendants, have removed, or intend to remove, the other state court cases to federal court and will seek to have them transferred to the AWP MultiDistrict Litigation. The Company anticipates that the County of Suffolk case will also be transferred there. Plaintiffs seek damages as well as injunctive relief aimed at manufacturer price reporting practices. These cases are at a very preliminary stage, and the Company is unable to assess the outcome and any possible effect on its business and profitability, or reasonably to estimate possible loss or range of loss with respect to these cases.

The Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, also has received subpoenas and other document requests from various government agencies seeking records relating to its pricing and marketing practices for drugs covered by Medicare and/or Medicaid. The requests for records have come from the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services in conjunction with the Civil Division of the Department of Justice, and several states.

The Company is producing documents and actively cooperating with these investigations, which could result in the assertion of criminal and/or civil claims. The Company is unable to assess the outcome of, or to reasonably to estimate `possiblethe possible loss or range of loss with respect to, these investigations, which could include the imposition of fines, penalties and administrative remedies.

Item 5. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
BREAST IMPLANT LITIGATION

None.        The Company, together with its subsidiary Medical Engineering Corporation (MEC) and certain other companies, remains a defendant in a number of claims and lawsuits alleging damages for personal injuries of various types resulting from polyurethane-covered breast implants and smooth-walled breast implants formerly manufactured by MEC or a related company. The vast majority of claims against the Company in direct lawsuits have been resolved through settlements or trial. Likewise, claims or potential claims against the Company registered in the nationwide class action settlement approved by the Federal District Court in Birmingham, Alabama (Revised Settlement), have been or will be resolved through the Revised Settlement. The Company has established accruals in respect of breast implant product liability litigation. The Company believes that any possible loss in addition to the amounts accrued will not be material.
