ITEM 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On April 26, 2004, Zimmer Holdings, Inc. (the “Registrant”) reported its results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The Registrant’s earnings release is attached as Exhibit 99(a) and the information set forth therein is incorporated herein by reference and constitutes a part of this report.
As previously announced, the Registrant acquired Centerpulse AG on October 2, 2003. The earnings release attached as Exhibit 99(a) includes comparative sales information to prior year information for the Registrant and Centerpulse on a combined basis, information reflected in its statements of earnings and guidance for diluted earnings per share on an adjusted basis excluding the impact of the following which relates to the Centerpulse acquisition: inventory step-up costs of goods sold; in-process research and development expense; acquisition and integration expense; and related income tax benefits. The press release also reports sales growth measurements on a basis that eliminates the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates between periods.
Management believes that the presentation of the combined and adjusted information allows investors to more easily compare the Registrant’s performance on a period to period basis. It also aids investors in understanding the operating results of the Registrant absent the specific acquisition related items detailed above as well as the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates between periods. However, these measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
All of the non-GAAP financial measures, except as noted below and the 2005 and 2006 diluted earnings per share guidance, are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the press release. The Company’s diluted earnings per share for 2005 and 2006, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is not currently determinable because the specific items identified above which were excluded from the 2005 diluted earnings per share guidance, are not yet finalized. As a result, a reconciliation of the diluted earnings per share guidance for 2005 to GAAP diluted earnings per share for that period may not be performed without unreasonable effort.
The following is a reconciliation of combined sales growth for the three months ended March 31, 2004:
