Third Quarter Earnings Results
In the third quarter of 2012 the Company recorded after-tax charges of $80 million, or $0.25 per share primarily related to organizational realignment actions announced this quarter as well as our previously announced actions initiated during the second quarter of 2011 to realign certain activities within its CRM business.
Including these items, reported net earnings for the third quarter of 2012 were $176 million, or $0.56 per share. This compares to reported net earnings for the third quarter of 2011 of $227 million, or $0.69 per share.
In accordance with GAAP, reported net earnings for the third quarter 2012 do not include any benefit from the research and development tax credit, which has yet to be extended for 2012. Including the benefit of this adjustment and excluding the third quarter charge, adjusted net earnings for the third quarter of 2012 were $261 million, or $0.83 per share. 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.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Sales and Earnings Guidance
During a conference call today, St. Jude Medical will provide its range for revenue expectations for the fourth quarter and full year by product category.
The Company expects its consolidated adjusted net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2012 to be in the range of $0.86 to $0.88 per diluted share and for full-year 2012 consolidated adjusted net earnings to now be in the range of $3.42 to $3.44. A further reconciliation of the Company’s quarterly and annual guidance is provided in the schedule below.
Share Repurchase Program
The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of St. Jude Medical common stock. The repurchases will occur at such times and at such prices as the management of the Company determines and may be effected through transactions in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

Any shares acquired in the $300 million repurchase program will be available for general corporate purposes, including offsetting dilution associated with stock option and other equity-based employee benefit plans. The Company had approximately 316 million shares of common stock outstanding as of October 16, 2012.
“The authorization of this share repurchase program allows us to use our strong balance sheet and cash flow to offset dilution from our stock compensation programs in 2013 and maximizes our flexibility to achieve our business objectives,” said Starks.
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, 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, 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 earnings 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.
The Company provides constant currency sales growth 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 foreign currency translation on net sales. St. Jude Medical management uses constant currency sales growth to forecast and evaluate the operational performance of the Company as well as to compare sales of current periods to prior periods.
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.
