These statements are based on assumptions regarding Company operations, investments and acquisitions and conditions in the markets the Company serves. We believe that these expectations are reasonable and well-founded. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are subject to risks and uncertainties including, among others, certain economic, political and technological factors. Actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied during this review or contained in other Company communications due to, but not limited to, such factors as (1) global economic conditions, (2) changes in pricing and the competitive environment and the global demand for our products, (3) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, (4) changes in research funding and the success of research and development activities, (5) failure of planned sales initiatives in our Research and SAFC businesses, (6) dependence on uninterrupted manufacturing operations, (7) failure to achieve planned cost reductions in global supply chain initiatives and restructuring actions, (8) changes in the regulatory environment in which the Company operates, (9) changes in worldwide tax rates or tax benefits from domestic and international operations, including the matters described in Note 10– Income Taxes– to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010, (10) exposure to litigation, including product liability claims, (11) the ability to maintain adequate quality standards, (12) reliance on third party package delivery services, (13) an unanticipated increase in interest rates, (14) other changes in the business environment in which the Company operates, and (15) the outcome of the outstanding matters described in Note 11-Contingent Liabilities and Commitments to the Consolidated Financial Statements-in the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010. A further discussion of risk factors can be found in Item 1A of Part 1 of the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update the matters covered in this presentation. With over 60% of sales denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, management uses currency-adjusted growth, and believes it is useful to investors, to judge the Company’s controllable, local currency performance. Organic sales growth data presented in this review is proforma data and excludes currency and acquisition impacts. The Company calculates the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates by multiplying current period activity by the difference between current period exchange rates and prior period exchange rates. The result is the defined impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. While we are able to report historical currency impacts after the fact, we are unable to estimate changes that may occur later in 2011 to applicable exchange rates. Any significant changes in currency exchange rates would likely have a significant impact on our reported growth rates due to the volume of our sales denominated in foreign currencies. Management also uses adjusted net income and EPS, adjusted operating income and operating income margins (excluding restructuring and impairment costs) and free cash flow, non-GAAP measures, to judge its performance and ability to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. Due to the uncertain timing of the future restructuring and other extraordinary special changes, we are unable to include a 2011 diluted GAAP EPS forecast or reconcile to our 2011 diluted adjusted EPS forecast or provide a reconciliation to corresponding GAAP measures . Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful to investors as well. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP information are included in the Company’s April 26, 2011 earnings release posted on its website, www.sigma-aldrich.com, and in the Appendix – Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures beginning on Slide 12. |
