Basis of Presentation | Note 1 Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to rulesand regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been made. It is suggested that these statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in Abbotts Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December31, 2008. Events that occurred after September30, 2009 through the date that these financial statements have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission were considered in the preparation of these financial statements. On January1, 2009, Abbott adopted SFAS No.160 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No.51 and, accordingly, noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries are presented as a component of total equity as of September30, 2009 and December31, 2008. |

Supplemental Financial Information | Note 2 Supplemental Financial Information Effective January1, 2009, Abbott adopted FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities, which requires that unvested restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends be treated as participating securities and be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities. Net earnings allocated to common shares for the three months and nine months ended September30, 2009 were $1.476 billion and $4.196 billion, respectively. Net earnings allocated to common shares in 2008 were not significantly different than net earnings. Other (income) expense, net, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 includes a $287 million gain from the settlement reached between Abbott and Medtronic,Inc. resolving all outstanding intellectual property litigation between the two parties. Other (income) expense, net, for the first nine months of 2009 includes the derecognition of a contingent liability of $797 million associated with the conclusion of the TAP joint venture as discussed in Note 9 and income from the recording of certain investments at fair value in connection with business acquisitions. Other (income) expense, net, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 and 2008 also includes ongoing contractual payments from Takeda associated with the conclusion of the TAP joint venture. In connection with the dissolution of the TAP joint venture, Abbott recorded a gain of approximately $95 million in the first nine months of 2008, which is included in Other (income) expense, net. Other (income) expense, net for the nine months ended September30, 2008 also includes a gain of approximately $52 million on the sale of an equity investment accounted for as an available-for-sale investment. Supplemental Cash Flow Information Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2009 and 2008 includes the effects of contributions to the main domestic defined benefit plan of $700 million and $200 million, respectively. Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2008 also reflects increased accruals for cost improvement initiatives and payroll related obligations. Purchases of other investment securities, net in 2009 and 2008 reflects the acquisition of short-term investments with original maturities of over three months. The components of long-term investments as of September30, 2009 and December31, 2008 are as follows: September30 December31 (dollars in millions) 2009 2008 Equity securities $ 171 $ 147 Note receivable from Boston Scientific, 4% interest, due in 2011 876 865 Other 64 62 Total $ 1,111 $ 1,074 |

Taxes on Earnings | Note 3 Taxes on Earnings Taxes on earnings reflect the estimated annual effective rates and include charges for interest and penalties. The effective tax rates are less than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate principally due to the benefit of lower statutory tax rates and tax exemptions in several foreign taxing jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2008, Abbotts federal income tax returns for 2004 and 2005 were settled, resulting in a net reduction of income taxes of approximately $30 million. |

Litigation and Environmental Matters | Note 4 Litigation and Environmental Matters Abbott has been identified as a potentially responsible party for investigation and cleanup costs at a number of locations in the United States and Puerto Rico under federal and state remediation laws and is investigating potential contamination at a number of company-owned locations. Abbott has recorded an estimated cleanup cost for each site for which management believes Abbott has a probable loss exposure. No individual site cleanup exposure is expected to exceed $3million, and the aggregate cleanup exposure is not expected to exceed $15million. There are a number of patent disputes with third parties who claim Abbotts products infringe their patents. In April2007, New York University (NYU) and Centocor,Inc. filed a lawsuit in the Eastern District of Texas asserting that HUMIRA infringes a patent co-owned by NYU and Centocor and exclusively licensed to Centocor. In June2009, a jury found that Abbott had willfully infringed the patent and awarded NYU and Centocor approximately $1.67 billion in past compensatory damages. In October2009, the district court overturned the jurys finding that Abbotts infringement was willful, but denied Abbotts request to overturn the jurys verdict on validity, infringement, and damages. Abbott will appeal the jurys verdict. Abbott is confident in the merits of its case and believes that it will prevail on appeal. As a result, no reserves have been recorded in this case. Abbotts acquisition of Kos Pharmaceuticals Inc. resulted in the assumption of various cases and investigations and Abbott has recorded a reserve. There are several civil actions pending brought by individuals or entities that allege generally that Abbott and numerous pharmaceutical companies reported false or misleading pricing information relating to the average wholesale price of certain pharmaceutical products in connection with federal, state and private reimbursement. Civil actions have also been brought against Abbott, and in some cases other members of the pharmaceutical industry, by state attorneys general seeking to recover alleged damages on behalf of state Medicaid programs. In May2006, Abbott was notified that the U.S. Department of Justice intervened in a civil whistle-blower lawsuit alleging that Abbott inflated prices for Medicaid and Medicare reimbursable drugs. Abbott has settled a few of the cases and recorded reserves for its estimated losses in a few other cases, however, Abbott is unable to estimate the range or amount of possible loss for the remaining cases, and no loss reserves have been recorded for them. Many of the products involved in these cases are Hospira products. Hospira, Abbotts former hospital products business, was spun off to Abbotts shareholders in 2004. Abbott retained liability for losses that result from these cases and investigations to the extent any such losses both relate to the sale of Hospiras products prior to the spin-off of Hospira and relate to allegations that were made in such pending and future cases and investigations that were the same as allegations existing at the date of the spin-off.

Conclusion of TAP Pharmaceutical Products Inc. Joint Venture | Note 9 Conclusion of TAP Pharmaceutical Products Inc. Joint Venture On April30, 2008, Abbott and Takeda concluded their TAP Pharmaceutical Products Inc. (TAP) joint venture, evenly splitting the value and assets of the joint venture. Abbott exchanged its 50 percent equity interest in TAP for the assets, liabilities and employees related to TAPs Lupron business. Beginning on May1, 2008, Abbott began recording U.S. Lupron net sales and costs in its operating results and no longer records income from the TAP joint venture. Abbott receives payments based on specified development, approval and commercial events being achieved with respect to products retained by Takeda and payments from Takeda based on sales of products retained by Takeda, which are recorded by Abbott as Other (income) expense, net as earned. Abbott also agreed to remit cash to Takeda if certain research and development events are not achieved on the development assets retained by Takeda. These amounts were recorded as a liability at closing in the amount of approximately $1.1 billion. Of the $1.1 billion, Abbott made tax-deductible payments of $83 million in 2009 and $200 million in 2008 and Abbott will make a tax-deductible payment of approximately $36 million in 2010. In the first quarter of 2009, events occurred resulting in the remaining payments not being required and the remaining liability in the amount of $797 million was derecognized and recorded as income in Other (income) expense, net. The 50 percent-owned joint venture was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Summarized financial information for TAP for the nine months ended September30, 2008 are as follows: (dollars in millions) Net sales $ 853 Cost of sales 229 Income before taxes 356 Net earnings 238 |

(AMO), a marketer of ophthalmic surgical technology and devices, as well as eye care solutions for approximately $1.4 billion in cash, net of cash held by AMO. Prior to the acquisition, Abbott held a small investment in AMO. Abbott acquired AMO to take advantage of increasing demand for vision care technologies due to population growth and demographic shifts and AMOs premier position in its field. Abbott acquired control of this business on February25, 2009 and the financial results of the acquired operations are included in these financial statements beginning on that date. The acquisition was financed with long-term debt. The preliminary allocation of the fair value of the acquisition is shown in the table below (dollars in billions). These allocations will be finalized when valuations are completed.

Acquired in-process research and development will be accounted for as an indefinite lived intangible asset until regulatory approval or discontinuation. The net tangible assets acquired consist primarily of trade accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and other assets, net of assumed liabilities, primarily trade accounts payable, accrued compensation and other liabilities. Abbott incurred approximately $73 million of acquisition-related expenses in the first nine months of 2009 which are classified as Selling, general and administrative expense. In addition, subsequent to the acquisition, Abbott repaid substantially all of the acquired debt of AMO. In January2009, Abbott acquired Ibis Biosciences,Inc. (Ibis) for $175 million, in cash, to expand Abbotts position in molecular diagnostics for infectious disease. Including a $40 million investment in Ibis in 2008, Abbott has acquired 100 percent of the outstanding shares of Ibis. A substantial portion of the fair value of the acquisition has been allocated to goodwill and amortizable intangible assets, and acquired in-process research and development which will be accounted for as an indefinite lived intangible asset until regulatory approval or discontinuation. The investment in Ibis in 2008 resulted in a charge to acquired in-process research and development in the first nine months of 2008. In connection with the acquisition, the carrying amount of this investment was revalued to fair value in the first quarter of 2009 resulting in recording $33 million of income, which is reported as Other (income) expense, net. On October20, 2009, Abbott acquired 100 percent of Visiogen,Inc. for $400 million in cash, providing |

Financial Instruments, Derivatives and Fair Value Measures | Note 11 Financial Instruments, Derivatives and Fair Value Measures Certain Abbott foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage exposures to changes in foreign exchange rates for anticipated intercompany purchases by those subsidiaries whose functional currencies are not the U.S. dollar. These contracts, totaling $79 million and $129 million at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively, are designated as cash flow hedges of the variability of the cash flows due to changes in foreign exchange rates and are recorded at fair value. Accumulated gains and losses as of September30, 2009 will be included in Cost of products sold at the time the products are sold, generally through the next twelve months. Abbott enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage currency exposures for foreign currency denominated third-party trade payables and receivables, and for intercompany loans and trade accounts payable where the receivable or payable is denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity. For intercompany loans, the contracts require Abbott to sell or buy foreign currencies, primarily European currencies and Japanese yen, in exchange for primarily U.S. dollars and other European currencies. For intercompany and trade payables and receivables, the currency exposures are primarily the U.S. dollar, European currencies and Japanese yen. At September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, Abbott held $7.0 billion and $8.3 billion, respectively, of such foreign currency forward exchange contracts. Abbott has designated foreign denominated short-term debt as a hedge of the net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries of approximately $587 million and approximately $585 million as of September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of this debt due to changes in exchange rates are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. Abbott is a party to interest rate swap contracts totaling $5.5 billion and $2.5 billion at September30, 2009 and December31, 2008, respectively, to manage its exposure to changes in the fair value of fixed-rate debt due 2011 through 2019. These contracts are designated as fair value hedges of the variability of the fair value of fixed-rate debt due to changes in the long-term benchmark interest rates. The effect of the hedge is to change a fixed-rate interest obligation to a variable rate for that portion of the debt. Abbott records the contracts at fair value and adjusts the carrying amount of the fixed-rate debt by an offsetting amount. No hedge ineffectiveness was recorded in income in 2009 or 2008 for these hedges. The following table summarizes the amounts and location of certain derivative financial instruments as of September30, 2009 and December31, 2008: FairValue-Assets FairValue-Liabilities Sept.30 Dec.31 Sept.30 Dec.31 (dollarsinmillions) 2009 2008 BalanceSheetCaption 2009 2008 BalanceSheetCaption Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges $ 115 $ 170 |
