Third Quarter Earnings Results
In the third quarter, the Company recorded after-tax charges of $11 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, related primarily to closing and other costs associated with the acquisition of LightLab Imaging, Inc. and recorded $12 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, of in-process research and development expenses related to the acquisition of certain pre-development technology assets.

A reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per share to the Company’s GAAP net earnings per share is provided in the schedule at the end of the press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share because St. Jude Medical management believes that in order to properly understand the Company’s short-term and long-term financial trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain adjustments (such as in-process research and development charges, acquisition-related charges, impairment charges, restructuring charges, litigation charges or litigation reserve adjustments and income tax adjustments). These adjustments result from facts and circumstances (such as business development activities, acquisitions, restructuring activities, asset impairment events or developments, settlements and other developments relating to litigation and resolution of audits by tax authorities) that vary in frequency and impact on the Company’s results of operations. St. Jude Medical management uses adjusted net earning s and adjusted net earnings per share to forecast and evaluate the operational performance of the Company as well as to compare results of current periods to prior periods on a consolidated basis.
Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
