Note 1. Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (which may be referred to as Bristol-Myers Squibb, BMS or the Company) prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim reporting. Under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required by GAAP for annual financial statements can be condensed or omitted. The Company is responsible for the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. These consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2009. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Material subsequent events are evaluated and disclosed through the report issuance date, July 23, 2009. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 included in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 28, 2009. See Note 3. Business Segments for discussion of the change in business segments, due to the Mead Johnson Nutrition Company (Mead Johnson) initial public offering. Certain reclassifications were made to conform to the current period presentation.
Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Accordingly, the results and trends in these unaudited consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of full year operating results.
The Company recognizes revenue when title and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Generally, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment; however, for certain sales made by Mead Johnson and certain non-U.S. businesses within the BioPharmaceuticals segment, revenue is recognized on the date of receipt by the purchaser. Revenues are reduced at the time of recognition to reflect expected returns that are estimated based on historical experience and business trends. Additionally, provisions are made at the time of revenue recognition for all discounts, rebates and estimated sales allowances based on historical experience updated for changes in facts and circumstances, as appropriate. Such provisions are recorded as a reduction of revenue.
In addition, the Company includes alliance revenue in net sales. The Company has agreements to promote pharmaceuticals discovered by other companies. Alliance revenue is based upon a percentage of the Companys copromotion partners net sales and is earned when the related product is shipped by the copromotion partners and title passes to the customer.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions are employed in estimates used in determining values of intangible assets; restructuring charges and accruals; sales rebate and return accruals; inventory obsolescence; legal contingencies; tax assets and tax liabilities; stock-based compensation; retirement and postretirement benefits (including the actuarial assumptions); financial instruments, including marketable securities with no observable market quotes; as well as in estimates used in applying the revenue recognition policy. Actual results may differ from the estimated results.
Effective July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Standards (SFAS) No. 168, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. SFAS No. 168 reduces the U.S. GAAP hierarchy to two levels, one that is authoritative and one that is not. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, with respect to non-financial assets and liabilities effective January 1, 2009. This pronouncement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. Among other items, SFAS No. 166 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and clarifies that the objective of paragraph 9 of SFAS No. 140 is to determine whether a transferor and all of the entities included in the transferors financial statements being presented have surrendered control over transferred financial assets. SFAS No. 166 is effective January 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amending FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). SFAS No. 167 amends FIN 46(R) in determining whether an enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. This determination identifies the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity as the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of a variable interest
7
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and New Accounting Standards (Continued)
entity that most significantly impacts the entitys economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 also requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary and eliminates the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary. SFAS No. 167 is effective January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this pronouncement.
The Company adopted SFAS No.160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51, on January 1, 2009. As a result of adoption the following retroactive adjustment was made: the December 31, 2008 noncontrolling interest balance of $33 million, previously presented as $66 million of receivables and $33 million of non-current other liabilities, has been presented as part of equity. Also, noncontrolling interest has been presented as a reconciling item in the consolidated statements of earnings, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and retained earnings and the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations, for business combinations on or after January 1, 2009. This pronouncement replaced SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, this pronouncement requires recognition of identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values. This pronouncement also requires the fair value of acquired in-process research and development to be recorded as indefinite lived intangibles, contingent consideration to be recorded on the acquisition date, and restructuring and acquisition-related deal costs to be expensed as incurred. In addition, any excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over purchase price and any subsequent changes in estimated contingencies are to be recorded in earnings. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements as there were no business combinations.
The Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements Related to the Development and Commercialization of Intellectual Property, effective January 1, 2009 and the provisions have been applied retroactively. According to this pronouncement a collaborative arrangement is one in which the participants are actively involved and are exposed to significant risks and rewards that depend on the ultimate commercial success of the endeavor. Revenues and costs incurred with third-parties in connection with collaborative arrangements are presented gross or net based on the criteria in EITF Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent, and other accounting literature. Payments to or from collaborators are evaluated and presented based on the nature of the arrangement and its terms, the nature of the entitys business, and whether those payments are within the scope of other accounting literature. The nature and purpose of collaborative arrangements are disclosed along with the accounting policies and the classification and amounts of significant financial statement amounts related to the arrangements. Activities in the arrangement conducted in a separate legal entity are accounted for under other accounting literature; however, required disclosure under EITF Issue No. 07-1 applies to the entire collaborative agreement. This pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Alliances and Collaborations
sanofi
The Company has agreements with sanofi-aventis (sanofi) for the codevelopment and cocommercialization of AVAPRO*/AVALIDE* (irbesartan/irbesartan-hydrochlorothiazide), an angiotensin II receptor antagonist indicated for the treatment of hypertension and diabetic nephropathy, and PLAVIX* (clopidogrel bisulfate), a platelet aggregation inhibitor. The worldwide alliance operates under the framework of two geographic territories; one in the Americas (principally the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico and Latin American countries) and Australia and the other in Europe and Asia. Accordingly, two territory partnerships were formed to manage central expenses, such as marketing, research and development and royalties, and to supply finished product to the individual countries. In general, at the country level, agreements either to copromote (whereby a partnership was formed between the parties to sell each brand) or to comarket (whereby the parties operate and sell their brands independently of each other) are in place. The agreements expire on the later of (i) with respect to PLAVIX*, 2013 and, with respect to AVAPRO*/AVALIDE*, 2012 in the Americas and Australia and 2013 in Europe and Asia and (ii) the expiration of all patents and other exclusivity rights in the applicable territory. The Company acts as the operating partner for the territory covering the Americas and Australia and owns a 50.1% majority controlling interest in this territory. Sanofis ownership interest in this territory is 49.9%. As such, the Company consolidates all country partnership results for this territory and records sanofis share of the results as a noncontrolling interest which was $424 million ($283 million after-tax) and $354 million ($238 million after-tax) for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $815 million ($549 million after-tax) and $688 million ($464 million after-tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Note 2. Alliances and Collaborations (Continued)
Company or Otsuka to third-party customers. The product is currently copromoted with Otsuka in the U.S., United Kingdom (UK), Germany, France and Spain. Currently in the U.S., Germany, France and Spain, where the product is invoiced to third-party customers by the Company on behalf of Otsuka, the Company records alliance revenue for its 65% contractual share of third-party net sales and records all expenses related to the product. The Company recognizes this alliance revenue when ABILIFY* is shipped and all risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to third-party customers. In the UK and Italy, where the Company is presently the exclusive distributor for the product, the Company records 100% of the net sales and related cost of products sold and expenses. The Company also has an exclusive right to sell ABILIFY* in other countries in Europe, the Americas and a number of countries in Asia. In these countries, the Company records 100% of the net sales and related cost of products sold.
In April 2009, the Company and Otsuka announced an agreement to extend the U.S. portion of the commercialization and manufacturing agreement until the expected loss of product exclusivity in April 2015. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid Otsuka $400 million, which will be amortized as a reduction of net sales through the extension period. Beginning on January 1, 2010, the share of ABILIFY* U.S. net sales that the Company records will change from 65% to the following:

During this period, Otsuka will be responsible for 30% of the expenses related to the commercialization of ABILIFY*.
Beginning January 1, 2013, and through the expected loss of U.S. exclusivity in 2015, the Company will receive the following percentages of U.S. annual net sales:

During this period, Otsuka will be responsible for 50% of all expenses related to the commercialization of ABILIFY*.
In addition, the Company and Otsuka announced that they have entered into an oncology collaboration for SPRYCEL and IXEMPRA, which includes the U.S., Japan and European Union (EU) markets (the Oncology Territory). Beginning in 2010 through 2020, the collaboration fees the Company will pay to Otsuka annually are the following percentages of net sales of SPRYCEL and IXEMPRA in the Oncology Territory:
% of Net Sales | ||||
2010 - 2012 | 2013 - 2020 | |||

$800 million to $1.0 billion |
2% | 2% | ||
In excess of $1.0 billion |
1% | 1% |
During these periods, Otsuka will contribute (i) 20% of the first $175 million of certain commercial operational expenses relating to the oncology products, and (ii) 1% of such commercial operational expenses relating to the products in the territory in excess of $175 million. Starting in 2011, Otsuka will have the right to co-promote SPRYCEL with the Company in the U.S. and Japan and in 2012, in the top five EU markets.
The U.S. extension and the oncology collaboration include a change-of-control provision in the case of an acquisition of the Company. If the acquiring company does not have a competing product to ABILIFY*, then the new company will assume the ABILIFY* agreement (as amended) and the oncology collaboration as it exists today. If the acquiring company has a product that competes with ABILIFY*, Otsuka can elect to request the acquiring company to choose whether to divest ABILIFY* or the competing product. In the scenario where ABILIFY* is divested, Otsuka would be obligated to acquire the Companys rights under the ABILIFY* agreement (as amended). The agreements also provide that in the event of a generic competitor to ABILIFY* after January 1, 2010, the Company has the option of terminating the ABILIFY* April 2009 amendment (with the agreement as previously
10
Note 2. Alliances and Collaborations (Continued)
amended remaining in force). If the Company were to exercise such option then either (i) the Company would receive a payment from Otsuka according to a pre-determined schedule and the oncology collaboration would terminate at the same time or (ii) the oncology collaboration would continue for a truncated period according to a pre-determined schedule.
For the entire EU, the agreement remained unchanged and will expire in June 2014. In other countries where the Company has the exclusive right to sell ABILIFY*, the agreement expires on the later of the 10th anniversary of the first commercial sale in such country or expiration of the applicable patent in such country.
The Company recorded total revenue for ABILIFY* of $643 million and $529 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $1,232 million and $983 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company amortized into cost of products sold $2 million in each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and $4 million in each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, for previously capitalized milestone payments. The unamortized capitalized payment balance is recorded in other intangible assets, net and was $19 million at June 30, 2009 and $23 million at December 31, 2008, and will continue to amortize through 2012. The Company amortized as a reduction of net sales $16 million for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, related to the $400 million extension payment. The unamortized portion of this payment amounted to $384 million at June 30, 2009, and is included in other assets, net.
Lilly
The Company has a commercialization agreement with Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) through Lillys November 2008 acquisition of ImClone Systems Incorporated (ImClone) for the codevelopment and copromotion of ERBITUX* (cetuximab) in the U.S., which expires as to ERBITUX* in September of 2018. The Company also has codevelopment and copromotion rights in Canada and Japan. ERBITUX* is indicated for use in the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and for use in the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Under the agreement covering North America, Lilly receives a distribution fee based on a flat rate of 39% of net sales in North America.
In October 2007, the Company and ImClone amended their codevelopment agreement with Merck KGaA to provide for cocommercialization of ERBITUX* in Japan, which expires in 2032. Lilly has the ability to terminate the agreement after 2018 if it determines that it is commercially unreasonable for Lilly to continue. ERBITUX* received marketing approval in Japan in July 2008 for the use of ERBITUX* in treating patients with advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
The Company recorded net sales for ERBITUX* of $173 million and $196 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $337 million and $383 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Note 4. Restructuring
The Companys productivity transformation initiative is designed to fundamentally change the way it runs its business to meet the challenges of a changing business environment, to take advantage of the diverse opportunities in the marketplace as the Company is transforming into a next-generation biopharmaceutical company, and to create a total of $2.5 billion in annual productivity cost savings and cost avoidance by 2012. In connection with the PTI, the Company aims to achieve a culture of continuous improvement to enhance its efficiency, effectiveness and competitiveness and to substantially improve its cost base.
The charges associated with the PTI are estimated to be in the range of $1.3 billion to $1.6 billion, which includes $806 million of costs already incurred. The incurred costs are net of $214 million of gains related to the sale of mature product lines and businesses. The exact timing of the recognition of PTI charges cannot be predicted with certainty and will be affected by the existence of triggering events for expense recognition, among other factors.
The Company recorded the following PTI charges:

Most of the accelerated depreciation, asset impairment charges and other shutdown costs were included in cost of products sold and primarily relate to the rationalization of the Companys manufacturing network in the BioPharmaceuticals segment. These assets continue to be depreciated until the facility closures are complete. The remaining costs of PTI were primarily attributed to process standardization activities across the Company and are recognized as incurred.
Restructuring charges included termination benefits for workforce reductions of manufacturing, selling, administrative, and research and development personnel across all geographic regions of approximately 140 and 170 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 355 and 370 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company excludes the impact of restructuring charges and other related PTI costs from segment income. See Note 3. Business Segments for a reconciliation of segment results to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes. Restructuring charges originating from the BioPharmaceuticals segment were $19 million and $29 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $38 million and $39 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, with the remaining charges relating to the Mead Johnson segment.

Note 5. Mead Johnson Nutrition Company Initial Public Offering
In February 2009, Mead Johnson Nutrition Company completed an initial public offering (IPO), in which it sold 34.5 million shares of its Class A common stock at $24 per share. The net proceeds, after deducting $46 million of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses, were $782 million, which were allocated to noncontrolling interest and capital in excess of par value of stock within the Companys equity.
Upon completion of the IPO, the Company held 42.3 million shares of Mead Johnson Class A common stock and 127.7 million shares of Mead Johnson Class B common stock, representing an 83.1% interest in Mead Johnson and 97.5% of the combined voting power of the outstanding common stock. The rights of the holders of the shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, except with regard to voting and conversion. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Each share of Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share and is convertible at any time at the election of the holder into one share of Class A common stock. The Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock in certain circumstances.
Mead Johnson continues to be consolidated for financial reporting purposes. The Company has entered into various agreements related to the separation of Mead Johnson, including a separation agreement, a transitional services agreement, a tax matters agreement, a registration rights agreement and an employee matters agreement.
Note 6. Discontinued Operations
As discussed in our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company completed the divestiture of ConvaTec and Medical Imaging. The results of the ConvaTec and Medical Imaging businesses are included in net earnings from discontinued operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008. The Medical Imaging business divestiture was completed in the first quarter of 2008, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $25 million (after-tax loss of $43 million).
The following summarized financial information related to the ConvaTec and Medical Imaging businesses has been segregated from continuing operations in 2008 and reported as discontinued operations through the date of disposition and does not reflect the costs of certain services provided to ConvaTec and Medical Imaging by the Company. These costs were not allocated by the Company to ConvaTec and Medical Imaging and were for services that included legal counsel, insurance, external audit fees, payroll processing, certain human resource services and information technology systems support.

Note 7. Earnings Per Share
The numerator for basic earnings per share is net earnings attributable to shareholders reduced by dividends and undistributed earnings attributable to unvested shares. The numerator for diluted earnings per share is net earnings attributable to shareholders with interest expense added back for the assumed conversion of the convertible debt into common stock and reduced by dividends and undistributed earnings attributable to unvested shares. The denominator for basic earnings per share is the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the period. The denominator for diluted earnings per share is the weighted-average shares outstanding adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted shares and contingently convertible debt into common stock. The computations for basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows:

Interest expense was reduced by $29 million and $15 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $53 million and $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, from the effects of interest rate swaps. In addition, interest expense was further reduced by $7 million and less than $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $12 million and less than $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, from the termination of interest rate swaps during 2009 and 2008. See Note 20. Financial Instruments for additional discussion on terminated swap contracts.
Interest income relates primarily to interest earned on cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities. For further detail on ARS impairment charge, see Note 11. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities.
Foreign exchange transaction losses were primarily due to a weakening U.S. dollar impact on non-qualifying foreign exchange hedges and the re-measurement of non-functional currency denominated transactions.
Gain on sale of product lines, businesses and assets were primarily related to the sale of mature brands, including the Pakistan business in 2009.
Other, net includes income from third-party contract manufacturing, gains and losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment, deferred income recognized, certain litigation charges/recoveries, and ConvaTec and Medical Imaging net transitional service fees.

Note 9. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate on earnings from continuing operations before income taxes was 25.4% and 29.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, compared to 21.1% and 24.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. The higher tax rate in the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 was due primarily to a tax benefit of $91 million recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2008 related to the effective settlement of the 20022003 audit with the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, the three months ended June 30, 2009 included offsetting effects related to the Mead Johnson separation activities discussed below and a $40 million tax benefit related to the final settlement of certain state audits. The higher tax rate in the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 was primarily related to the transfer of various international units of the Company to Mead Johnson prior to its initial public offering in addition to the items discussed above.
U.S. income taxes have not been provided on the earnings of certain low tax non-U.S. subsidiaries that are not projected to be distributed this year since the Company has invested or expects to invest such earnings permanently offshore. If, in the future, these earnings are repatriated to the U.S., or if the Company determines such earnings will be remitted in the foreseeable future, additional tax provisions would be required.
President Obamas Administration has proposed reforms to the international tax laws that if adopted may increase taxes and reduce the Companys results of operations and cash flows.
The Company has recorded significant deferred tax assets related to U.S. foreign tax credit and research and development tax credit carryforwards. The foreign tax credit and research and development tax credit carryforwards expire in varying amounts beginning in 2014. Realization of foreign tax credit and research tax credit carryforwards is dependent on generating sufficient domestic-sourced taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized.
The Company will continue to file a U.S. federal consolidated federal tax return and various state combined tax returns with Mead Johnson. As part of the initial public offering of Mead Johnson, a tax sharing agreement was put in place between the Company and Mead Johnson. Mead Johnson will make payments to the Company on a quarterly basis for its tax liability for U.S. federal purposes and various state purposes computed as a stand alone entity. These payments represent either Mead Johnsons share of the tax liability or reimbursement to the Company for utilization of certain tax attributes. The Company has agreed to indemnify Mead Johnson for any outstanding tax liabilities or audit exposures (such as, income, sales and use, or property taxes) that existed for periods prior to the initial public offering.
The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company is currently under examination by a number of tax authorities, which have potential adjustments to tax for issues such as transfer pricing, certain tax credits and the deductibility of certain expenses. The Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2009 will decrease in the range of approximately $55 million to $85 million in the next 12 months as a result of the settlement of certain tax audits and other events. The expected change in unrecognized tax benefits, primarily settlement related, will involve the payment of additional taxes, the adjustment of certain deferred taxes, and/or the recognition of tax benefits. The Company also anticipates that it is reasonably possible that new issues will be raised by tax authorities, which may require increases to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits. However, an estimate of such increases cannot reasonably be made at this time.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurement
Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value at June 30, 2009 are classified in one of the three categories, which are described below:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

At June 30, 2009, the majority of the Companys ARS are primarily rated BBB/Baa1 or better; however, several of the ARS are rated below investment grade at BBB/Caa2. ARS primarily represent interests in insurance securitizations and, to a lesser extent, structured credits. Due to the lack of observable market quotes on the Companys ARS portfolio, the Company utilizes valuation models that rely exclusively on Level 3 inputs, including those that are based on expected cash flow streams and collateral values including assessments of counterparty credit quality, default risk underlying the security, discount rates and overall capital market liquidity. The valuation of the Companys ARS investment portfolio is subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Factors that may impact the Companys valuation include changes to credit ratings of the securities as well as to the underlying assets supporting those securities, rates of default of the underlying assets, underlying collateral value, discount rates, counterparty risk and ongoing strength and quality of market credit and liquidity. The Companys determination of fair value on its ARS investment portfolio at June 30, 2009 included internally developed valuations that were based in part on indicative bids received on the underlying assets of the securities and other non-observable evidence of fair value. Because the Company intends to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, the Company will consider any further decline in fair value to be an other-than-temporary impairment.
20
Note 10. Fair Value Measurement (Continued)
The Companys floating rate securities (FRS) are primarily rated BBB/B3 or better at June 30, 2009. FRS are long-term debt securities with coupons that are reset periodically against a benchmark interest rate. The underlying assets of the FRS primarily consist of consumer loans, auto loans, collateralized loan obligations, monoline securities, asset-backed securities and corporate bonds and loans. Since the latter part of 2007, the general FRS market became less liquid or active due to continuing credit and liquidity concerns; as a result, there is no availability of observable market quotes in the active market (Level 1 inputs) or market quotes on similar or identical assets or liabilities, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (Level 2 inputs). Due to the current lack of an active market for the Companys FRS and the general lack of transparency into their underlying assets, the Company relies on other qualitative analysis including discussion with brokers and fund managers, default risk underlying the security and overall capital market liquidity (Level 3 inputs) to value its FRS portfolio. Because the Company does not intend to sell these investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, the Company does not consider any decline in fair value to be an other-than-temporary impairment. Therefore, any declines in fair value are reported as a temporary loss in other comprehensive income. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 the Company received $120 million of principal at par for FRS.
In the second quarter of 2009, the Company invested $394 million in corporate debt securities. Corporate debt securities are rated A/A2 or better.
For financial assets and liabilities that utilize Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, the Company utilizes both direct and indirect observable price quotes, including LIBOR and EURIBOR yield curves, foreign exchange forward prices, NYMEX futures pricing and common stock price quotes. Below is a summary of valuation techniques for Level 1 and Level 2 financial assets and liabilities:
| U.S. Government Agency Securities and U.S. Government Agency Money Market Funds valued at the quoted market price from observable pricing sources at the reporting date. |
| U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds valued at the quoted market price from observable pricing sources at the reporting date. |
| Equity Securities valued using quoted stock prices from New York Stock Exchange or National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System at the reporting date. |
| Prime Money Market Funds net asset value of $1 per share. |
| Corporate Debt Securities valued at the quoted market price from observable pricing sources at the reporting date. |
| FDIC Insured Debt Securities valued at the quoted market price from observable pricing sources at the reporting date. |
| Foreign exchange derivative assets and liabilities valued using quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date. Counterparties to these contracts are highly-rated financial institutions, none of which experienced any significant downgrades during the six months ended June 30, 2009. Valuations may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in the underlying foreign currencies. Due to the short-term maturities of the Companys foreign exchange derivatives, which are 17 months or less, counterparty credit risk is not significant. |
| Interest rate swap derivative assets and liabilities valued using LIBOR and EURIBOR yield curves, less credit valuation adjustments, at the reporting date. Counterparties to these contracts are highly-rated financial institutions, none of which experienced any significant downgrades during the six months ended June 30, 2009. Valuations may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in underlying interest rates, which is driven by market conditions and the duration of the swap. In addition, credit valuation adjustment volatility may have a significant impact on the valuation of the Companys interest rate swaps due to changes in counterparty credit ratings and credit default swap spreads. |
| Natural gas forward contracts valued using NYMEX futures prices for natural gas at the reporting date. Counterparties to these contracts are highly-rated financial institutions, none of which experienced any significant downgrades during the six months ended June 30, 2009. Valuations may fluctuate considerably from period-to-period due to volatility in the underlying natural gas prices. Due to the short-term maturities of the Companys natural gas derivatives, which are six months or less, counterparty credit risk is not significant. |

Note 11. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 of $7,507 million and $7,976 million, respectively, primarily consisted of U.S. government agency securities. Cash equivalents primarily consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase and are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances in U.S. dollars and foreign currencies, which are subject to currency rate risk.
The following tables summarize the Companys current and non-current marketable securities, which include U.S. dollar-denominated FRS and ARS, and are accounted for as available for sale debt securities:

During June 2009, the Company amended its U.S. Retirement Income Plan (and several other plans) whereby, effective December 31, 2009, the Company will eliminate crediting future benefits relating to service. The Company will continue to consider salary increases for an additional five-year period in determining the benefit obligation related to prior service. The Company has accounted for the amendment as a curtailment.
As a result, the Company re-measured the applicable plan assets and obligations. The re-measurement resulted in a $455 million reduction to accumulated OCI ($295 million net of taxes) and a corresponding decrease to the unfunded status of the plan due to the curtailment, updated plan asset valuations and a change in the discount rate from 7.0% to 7.5%. A curtailment charge of $25 million was also recognized in other (income)/expense, net during the second quarter of 2009 for the remaining amount of unrecognized prior service cost. In addition, the Company has reclassified all participants as inactive for benefit plan purposes and will amortize actuarial gains and losses over the expected weighted-average remaining lives of plan participants (31 years).
In connection with the plan amendment, the Company will also increase its expected contributions to its principal defined contribution plans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico effective January 1, 2010. The net impact of the above actions is expected to reduce the future retiree benefit costs, although future costs will continue to be subject to market conditions and other factors including actual and expected plan asset performance and interest rates.
In February 2009, the Company re-measured the U.S. Retirement Income Plan and several other retirement and benefit plans upon the transfer of certain plan assets and related obligations to new Mead Johnson plans for active Mead Johnson participants. The re-measurement resulted in a $170 million reduction to accumulated OCI ($110 million net of taxes) in the first quarter of 2009 and a corresponding decrease to the unfunded status of the plan due to updated plan asset valuations and a change in the discount rate from 6.5% to 7.0%.
Contributions to the U.S. pension plans are expected to be approximately $650 million during 2009, of which $615 million was contributed in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Contributions to the international plans are expected to be in the range of $120 million to $140 million in 2009, of which $55 million was contributed in the six months ended June 30, 2009.
In 2008, concurrent with the agreement to sell ConvaTec, a revaluation of various pension plans assets and obligations was performed. The revaluation resulted in a curtailment charge of $3 million and special termination benefit charge of $13 million, which are included in discontinued operations.

Note 19. Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt (Continued)
In June 2009, the Company repurchased approximately $63 million principal amount of its 5.875% Notes due 2036 for a premium of $4 million. The total gain attributed to this transaction amounted to $11 million, which also included the termination of approximately $35 million notional amount of fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps for proceeds of $5 million.
In June 2009, the Company executed several fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps to convert $200 million of its 5.45% Notes due 2018 from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. In April 2009, the Company executed several fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps to convert $597 million of its 5.25% Notes due 2013 from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt. In January 2009, the Company terminated $1,061 million notional amount of fixed-to-floating interest rate swap agreements for proceeds of $187 million. The basis adjustment on the debt, which was equal to the proceeds from this swap termination, is being recognized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining life of the underlying debt. For further discussion of the Companys interest rate swaps, refer to Note 20. Financial Instruments.
In February 2009, Mead Johnson & Company as borrower and Mead Johnson as guarantor, both of which are indirect, majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company, entered into a three year syndicated revolving credit facility agreement. The facility is unsecured and repayable on maturity in February 2012, subject to annual extensions if sufficient lenders agree. The maximum amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit permitted at any one time is $410 million, which may be increased up to $500 million, at the option of Mead Johnson and with the consent of the lenders, subject to customary conditions contained in the facility. There were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility at June 30, 2009.
The Company obtained a $2.0 billion, revolving credit facility from a syndicate of lenders maturing in December 2011, which is extendable with the consent of the lenders. This facility contains customary terms and conditions, including a financial covenant whereby the ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated capital cannot exceed 50% at the end of each quarter. The Company has been in compliance with this covenant since the inception of this new facility. There were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility at June 30, 2009.
Note 20. Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to market risk due to changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates and to a lesser extent natural gas pricing. To reduce that risk, the Company enters into certain derivative financial instruments, when available on a cost-effective basis, to hedge its underlying economic exposure. Derivative financial instruments are not used for speculative purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Exchange contracts The Company utilizes foreign currency contracts to hedge forecasted transactions, primarily intercompany transactions, on certain foreign currencies and designates these derivative instruments as foreign currency cash flow hedges when appropriate. The notional and fair value amounts of the Companys foreign exchange derivative contracts at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were $1,194 million and $10 million net liabilities and $1,151 million and $49 million net assets, respectively. For these derivatives, the majority of which qualify as hedges of probable forecasted cash flows, the effective portion of changes in fair value is temporarily reported in accumulated OCI and recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings.
At June 30, 2009, the balance of deferred losses on foreign exchange forward contracts that qualified for cash flow hedge accounting included in accumulated OCI on a pre-tax basis was $7 million ($4 million net of taxes), all of which is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 17 months.
The Company assesses effectiveness at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis. These assessments determine whether derivatives designated as qualifying hedges continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of hedged items. Any ineffective portion of change in fair value is not deferred in accumulated OCI and is included in current period earnings. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the impact of hedge ineffectiveness on earnings was not significant. The Company will discontinue cash flow hedge accounting when the forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring on the originally forecasted date, or 60 days thereafter, or when the hedge is no longer effective. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the impact of discontinued foreign exchange hedges was a pre-tax loss of $4 million and $1 million, respectively, and was reported in other (income)/expense, net.
27
Note 20. Financial Instruments (Continued)
Natural Gas contracts The Company utilizes forward contracts to hedge forecasted purchases of natural gas and designates these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges when appropriate. For these derivatives the effective portion of changes in fair value is temporarily reported in accumulated OCI and recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The notional and fair value amounts of the Companys natural gas derivative contracts at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were 1 million decatherms and $5 million liability and 3 million decatherms and $7 million liability, respectively.
At June 30, 2009, the balance of deferred losses on natural gas forward contracts that qualified for cash flow hedge accounting included in accumulated OCI on a pre-tax basis was $2 million ($1 million net of taxes), all of which is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next six months.
Non-Qualifying Foreign Exchange Contracts
In addition to the foreign exchange contracts noted above, the Company utilizes forward contracts to hedge foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The primary objective of these forward contracts is to protect the U.S. dollar value of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities from the effects of volatility in foreign exchange rates that might occur prior to their receipt or settlement in U.S. dollars. These forward contracts are not designated as hedges and are marked to fair value through other (income)/expense, net, as they occur, and substantially offset the change in spot value of the underlying foreign currency denominated monetary asset or liability. The notional and fair value amounts of purchased and sold foreign exchange forward contracts at June 30, 2009 were not material.
Furthermore, the Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to offset its exposure to certain assets and liabilities and earnings denominated in certain foreign currencies. These foreign exchange forward contracts are not designated as hedges; therefore, changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in earnings in other (income)/expense, net, as they occur. The notional and fair value amounts of purchased and sold foreign exchange forward contracts at June 30, 2009 were a $15 million and a $2 million net liability, respectively.
Hedge of Net Investment
The Company uses non-U.S. dollar borrowings, primarily the 500 Million Notes due 2016 and the 500 Million Notes due 2021, to hedge the foreign currency exposures of the Companys net investment in certain foreign affiliates. These non-U.S. dollar borrowings are designated as a hedge of net investment. The effective portion of foreign exchange gains or losses on these hedges is recorded as part of the foreign currency translation (CTA) component of accumulated OCI. At June 30, 2009, $133 million was recorded in the CTA component of accumulated OCI.
Fair Value Hedges
Interest Rate contracts The Company uses derivative instruments as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The derivative instruments used are comprised principally of fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps, which are designated in fair-value hedge relationships. The total notional amounts of outstanding interest rate swaps were $2.3 billion and 1 billion ($1.4 billion) at June 30, 2009. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the effect of the interest rate swaps was to decrease interest expense by $29 million and $53 million, respectively.
The swaps, as well as the underlying debt for the benchmark risk being hedged, are recorded at fair value. Swaps are generally held to maturity and are intended to create an appropriate balance of fixed and floating rate debt for the Company. The basis adjustment to the debt hedged in qualifying fair value hedging relationships where the underlying swap is terminated prior to maturity is amortized to earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt.
In June 2009, the Company executed several fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps to convert $200 million of its 5.45% Notes due 2018 from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt.
In April 2009, the Company executed several fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps to convert $597 million of its 5.25% Notes due 2013 from fixed rate debt to variable rate debt.
28
Note 20. Financial Instruments (Continued)
In January 2009, the Company terminated $1,061 million notional amount of fixed-to-floating interest rate swap agreements for proceeds of $187 million.
The effective portion of the fair value of swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges that are terminated, but for which the hedged debt remains outstanding, are reported in accumulated OCI and amortized to earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. At June 30, 2009, the balance of deferred losses on forward starting swaps included in accumulated OCI was $19 million, which will be reclassified into earnings over the remaining life of the debt.
For further discussion on the Companys debt refer to Note 19. Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt.

For a discussion on the fair value of financial instruments, see Note 10. Fair Value Measurement. For a discussion on cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, see Note 11. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities.
The Companys derivative financial instruments present certain market and counterparty risks; however, concentration of counterparty risk is mitigated as the Company deals with a variety of major banks worldwide with Standard & Poors and Moodys long-term debt ratings of A or higher. In addition, only conventional derivative financial instruments are utilized. The Company would not be materially impacted if any of the counterparties to the derivative financial instruments outstanding at June 30, 2009 failed to perform according to the terms of its agreement. At this time, the Company does not require collateral or any other form of securitization to be furnished by the counterparties to its derivative financial instruments.

Note 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
Various lawsuits, claims, proceedings and investigations are pending involving the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company records accruals for such contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. These matters involve antitrust, securities, patent infringement, pricing, sales and marketing practices, environmental, health and safety matters, consumer fraud, employment matters, product liability and insurance coverage.
The most significant of these matters are described in Item 8. Financial StatementsNote 25. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies in the Companys 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion is limited to certain recent developments related to these previously described matters, and certain new matters that have not previously been described in a prior report. Accordingly, the disclosure below should be read in conjunction with the Companys 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. Unless noted to the contrary, all matters described in those earlier reports remain outstanding and the status is consistent with what has previously been reported.
There can be no assurance that there will not be an increase in the scope of pending matters or that any future lawsuits, claims, proceedings or investigations will not be material.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
PLAVIX* Litigation
PLAVIX* is currently the Companys largest product ranked by net sales. The PLAVIX* patents are subject to a number of challenges in the U.S., including the litigation with Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. (Apotex) described below, and in other less significant markets for the product. It is not possible reasonably to estimate the impact of these lawsuits on the Company. However, loss of market exclusivity of PLAVIX* and sustained generic competition in the U.S. would be material to the Companys sales of PLAVIX*, results of operations and cash flows, and could be material to the Companys financial condition and liquidity. The Company and its product partner, sanofi, (the Companies) intend to vigorously pursue enforcement of their patent rights in PLAVIX*.
PLAVIX* Litigation U.S.
Patent Infringement Litigation against Apotex and Related Matters
As previously disclosed, the Companys U.S. territory partnership under its alliance with sanofi is a plaintiff in a pending patent infringement lawsuit instituted in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (District Court) entitled Sanofi-Synthelabo, Sanofi-Synthelabo, Inc. and Bristol-Myers Squibb Sanofi Pharmaceuticals Holding Partnership v. Apotex. The suit is based on U.S. Patent No. 4,847,265 (the 265 Patent), a composition of matter patent, which discloses and claims, among other things, the hydrogen sulfate salt of clopidogrel, a medicine made available in the U.S. by the Companies as PLAVIX*. Also, as previously reported, the District Court upheld the validity and enforceability of the 265 Patent, maintaining the main patent protection for PLAVIX* in the U.S. until November 2011. The District Court also ruled that Apotexs generic clopidogrel bisulfate product infringed the 265 Patent and permanently enjoined Apotex from engaging in any activity that infringes the 265 Patent, including marketing its generic product in the U.S. until after the patent expires.
Apotex appealed the District Courts decision and on December 12, 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (Circuit Court) affirmed the District Courts ruling sustaining the validity of the 265 Patent. Apotex filed a petition with the Circuit Court for a rehearing en banc, and in March 2009, the Circuit Court denied Apotexs petition. The case has been remanded to the District Court for further proceedings. Apotex could file a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court requesting the Supreme Court to review the Circuit Courts decision.
As previously disclosed, the Companys U.S. territory partnership under its alliance with sanofi is also a plaintiff in five additional pending patent infringement lawsuits against Dr. Reddys Laboratories, Inc. and Dr. Reddys Laboratories, LTD (Dr. Reddys), Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), Cobalt Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Cobalt), Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Watson Laboratories, Inc. (Watson) and Sun Pharmaceuticals (Sun). The lawsuits against Dr. Reddys, Teva and Cobalt relate to the 265 Patent. In May 2009, Dr Reddys signed a consent judgment in favor of sanofi and BMS conceding the validity and infringement of the 265 Patent. As previously reported, the patent infringement actions against Teva and Cobalt were stayed pending resolution of the Apotex litigation, and the parties to those actions agreed to be bound by the outcome of the litigation against Apotex, although Teva and Cobalt can appeal the outcome of the litigation. Consequently, on July 12, 2007, the District Court entered judgments against Cobalt and Teva and permanently enjoined Cobalt and Teva from engaging in any activity that infringes the 265 Patent until after the Patent expires. Cobalt and Teva have each filed an appeal and these appeals are still pending. The lawsuit against Watson, filed in October
31
Note 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies (Continued)
2004, is based on U.S. Patent No. 6,429,210 (the 210 Patent), which discloses and claims a particular crystalline or polymorph form of the hydrogen sulfate salt of clopidogrel, which is marketed as PLAVIX*. In December 2005, the court permitted Watson to pursue its declaratory judgment counterclaim with respect to U.S. Patent No. 6,504,030. In January 2006, the Court approved the parties stipulation to stay this case pending the outcome of the trial in the Apotex matter. On May 1, 2009, BMS and Watson entered into a stipulation to dismiss the case. In April 2007, Pharmastar filed a request for inter partes reexamination of the 210 Patent. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted this request in July of 2007. Thus, the 210 Patent is currently under reexamination. The lawsuit against Sun, filed on July 11, 2008, is based on infringement of the 265 Patent and the 210 Patent. With respect to the 265 Patent, Sun has agreed to be bound by the outcome of the Apotex litigation. Each of Dr. Reddys, Teva, Cobalt, Watson and Sun have filed an aNDA with the FDA, and, with respect to Dr. Reddys, Teva, Cobalt and Watson all exclusivity periods and statutory stay periods under the Hatch-Waxman Act have expired. Accordingly, final approval by the FDA would provide each company authorization to distribute a generic clopidogrel bisulfate product in the U.S., subject to various legal remedies for which the Companies may apply including injunctive relief and damages.
It is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the outcome of any petition for writ of certiorari by Apotex requesting an appeal of the Circuit Courts decision, or the other PLAVIX* patent litigations or the timing of any renewed generic competition for PLAVIX* from Apotex or additional generic competition for PLAVIX* from other third-party generic pharmaceutical companies. However, if Apotex were to prevail in an appeal of the patent litigation, the Company would expect to face renewed generic competition for PLAVIX* promptly thereafter. Loss of market exclusivity for PLAVIX* and/or sustained generic competition would be material to the Companys sales of PLAVIX*, results of operations and cash flows, and could be material to the Companys financial condition and liquidity. Additionally, it is not possible at this time reasonably to assess the amount of damages that could be recovered by the Company and Apotexs ability to pay such damages in the event the Company prevails in the patent litigation.
Additionally, on November 13, 2008, Apotex filed the lawsuit in New Jersey Superior Court entitled, Apotex Inc., et al. v. sanofi-aventis, et al., seeking payment of $60 million, plus interest, related to the break-up of the proposed settlement agreement. On December 31, 2008, the defendants removed the case to the Federal District Court for New Jersey. Apotex moved to remand the case back to state court and, in June 2009, the Federal District Court of New Jersey remanded the case back to the New Jersey Superior Court.
PLAVIX* Litigation International
PLAVIX* Canada (Apotex, Inc.)
On April 22, 2009, Apotex filed an impeachment action against sanofi in the Federal Court of Canada alleging that sanofis Canadian Patent No. 1,336,777 (the 777 Patent) is invalid. The 777 Patent covers clopidogrel bisulfate and was the patent at issue in the prohibition action in Canada previously disclosed in which the Canadian Federal Court of Ottawa rejected Apotexs challenge to the 777 Patent, held that the asserted claims are novel, not obvious and infringed, and granted sanofis application for an order of prohibition against the Minster of Health and Apotex, precluding approval of Apotexs Abbreviated New Drug Submission until the patent expires in 2012, which decision was affirmed on appeal by both the Federal Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada. On June 8, 2009, sanofi filed its defense to the impeachment action and filed a suit against Apotex for infringement of the 777 Patent.
OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LITIGATION
ATRIPLA*
In April 2009, Teva filed an aNDA to manufacture and market a generic version of ATRIPLA*. Teva sent Gilead Sciences Inc. (Gilead) a Paragraph IV certification letter challenging two of the fifteen Orange-Book listed patents for ATRIPLA*. ATRIPLA* is the product of a joint venture between the Company and Gilead. In May 2009, Gilead filed a patent infringement action against Teva in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
SHAREHOLDER DERIVATIVE ACTIONS
As previously disclosed, on July 31, 2007, certain members of the Board of Directors, current and former officers and the Company were named in two derivative actions filed in the New York State Supreme Court, John Frank v. Peter Dolan, et al. (07-602580) and Donald Beebout v. Peter Dolan, et al. (07-602579), and one derivative action filed in the federal district court, Steven W. Sampson v. James D. Robinson, III, et al. (07-CV-6890). The complaints allege breaches of fiduciary duties for allegedly failing to disclose material information relating to efforts to settle the PLAVIX* patent infringement litigation with Apotex. Plaintiffs seek monetary damages on behalf of the Company, contribution and indemnification. By decision filed on December 13, 2007, the state court granted motions to dismiss the complaints, Frank and Beebout, relating to certain members of the Board of Directors, but did not
32
Note 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies (Continued)
dismiss the complaints as to the former officers. By decision dated August 20, 2008, the federal district court granted the Companys motion to dismiss the Sampson action. Plaintiffs appealed the district courts decision to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. In June 2009, the parties reached a settlement in principle to resolve this matter, for an amount that is not material to the Company, pending final approval by the court.
SECURITIES LITIGATION
In Re Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. Securities Litigation
As previously disclosed, in June and July 2007, two putative class action complaints, Minneapolis Firefighters Relief Assoc. v. Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., et al. (07 CV 5867) and Jean Lai v. Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, et al., were filed in the U.S. District for the Southern District of New York against the Company, the Companys former Chief Executive Officer, Peter Dolan and former Chief Financial Officer, Andrew Bonfield. The complaints allege violations of securities laws for allegedly failing to disclose material information relating to efforts to settle the PLAVIX* patent infringement litigation with Apotex. On September 20, 2007, the Court dismissed the Lai case without prejudice, changed the caption of the case to In re Bristol-Myers Squibb, Co. Securities Litigation, and appointed Ontario Teachers Pension Plan Board as lead plaintiff. On October 15, 2007, Ontario Teachers Pension Plan Board filed an amended complaint making similar allegations as the earlier filed complaints, naming an additional former officer but no longer naming Andrew Bonfield as a defendant. By decision dated August 20, 2008, the federal district court denied defendants motions to dismiss. In May 2009, the parties reached a settlement in principle to resolve this litigation for payment of $125 million, pending final approval by the court.
PRICING, SALES AND PROMOTIONAL PRACTICES LITIGATION AND INVESTIGATIONS
AWP Litigation
As previously disclosed, the Company, together with a number of other pharmaceutical manufacturers, is a defendant in a number of private class actions as well as suits brought by the attorneys general of various states. In these actions, plaintiffs allege that defendants caused the Average Wholesale Prices (AWPs) of their products to be inflated, thereby injuring government programs, entities and persons who reimbursed prescription drugs based on AWPs. The Company remains a defendant in four state attorneys general suits pending in federal and state courts around the country.
As previously reported, one set of class actions, together with a suit by the Arizona attorney general, have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts (AWP MDL). The Court in the AWP MDL has certified three classes of persons and entities who paid for or reimbursed for seven of the Companys physician-administered drugs. In June 2007, the Company settled in principle the claims of Class 1 (Medicare Part B beneficiaries nationwide) for $13 million, plus half the costs of class notice up to a maximum payment of $1 million and the parties are finalizing the terms of the settlement. A hearing is scheduled for preliminary approval of the Class 1 settlement. In June 2007, in a non-jury trial in the AWP MDL, the Court found the Company liable for violations of Massachusetts consumer protection laws with respect to certain oncology drugs for certain years and awarded damages in the amount of $183 thousand plus interest for Class 3 (private third-party payors) and instructed the parties to apply the Courts opinion to determine damages for Class 2 (Medigap insurers). In August, 2007, the Court found damages of $187 thousand plus interest for Class 2. The Company appealed the June 2007 decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and oral arguments were heard on November 4, 2008. In September 2008, the Court in the AWP MDL issued an order certifying multi-state classes for Class 2 and Class 3.
In May 2009, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the claims of Classes 2 and 3 for $6 million. A preliminary approval hearing is scheduled. The Companys appeal to the First Circuit has been stayed. Additionally, in May 2009, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the AWP lawsuit filed by the state of Arizona, for an amount that is not material to the Company.
33
Note 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies (Continued)
ENVIRONMENTAL PROCEEDINGS
As previously reported, the Company is a party to several environmental proceedings and other matters, and is responsible under various state, Federal and foreign laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), for certain costs of investigating and/or remediating contamination resulting from past industrial activity at the Companys current or former sites or at waste disposal or reprocessing facilities operated by third-parties.
CERCLA Matters
With respect to CERCLA matters for which the Company is responsible under various state, Federal and foreign laws, the Company typically estimates potential costs based on information obtained from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), or counterpart state agency and/or studies prepared by independent consultants, including the total estimated costs for the site and the expected cost-sharing, if any, with other potentially responsible parties, and the Company accrues liabilities when they are probable and reasonably estimable. As of June 30, 2009, the Company estimated its share of the total future costs for these sites to be approximately $60 million, recorded as other liabilities, which represents the sum of best estimates or, where no simple estimate can reasonably be made, estimates of the minimal probable amount among a range of such costs (without taking into account any potential recoveries from other parties, which are not currently expected). These estimated future costs include a site in Brazil where the Company is working with the Brazilian environmental authorities to determine what remediation steps must be undertaken.
North Brunswick Township Board of Education
As previously disclosed, in October 2003, the Company was contacted by counsel representing the North Brunswick, NJ Board of Education (BOE) regarding a site where waste materials from E.R. Squibb and Sons may have been disposed from the 1940s through the 1960s. Fill material containing industrial waste and heavy metals in excess of residential standards was discovered during an expansion project at the North Brunswick Township High School, as well as at a number of neighboring residential properties and adjacent public park areas. In January 2004, the NJDEP sent the Company and others an information request letter about possible waste disposal at the site, to which the Company responded in March 2004. The BOE and the Township, as the current owners of the school property and the park, are conducting and jointly financing soil remediation work and ground water investigation work under a work plan approved by NJDEP, and has asked the Company to contribute to the cost. The Company is actively monitoring the clean-up project, including its costs. To date, neither the school board nor the Township has asserted any claim against the Company. Instead, the Company and the local entities have negotiated an agreement to attempt to resolve the matter by informal means, including mediation and binding allocation as necessary. A central component of the agreement is provision by the Company of interim funding to help defray cleanup costs and assure the work is not interrupted; the Company transmitted an initial interim funding payment in December 2007. The parties commenced mediation in late 2008, and it is uncertain whether further sessions will be productive. If not, the parties will move to a binding allocation process.
ODS Regulatory Compliance
As previously disclosed, the U.S. EPA was investigating industrial and commercial facilities throughout the U.S. that use refrigeration equipment containing ozone-depleting substances (ODS) and enforcing compliance with regulations governing the prevention, service and repair of leaks (ODS requirements). In 2004, the Company performed a voluntary corporate-wide audit at its facilities in the U.S. and Puerto Rico that use ODS-containing refrigeration equipment. The Company submitted an audit report to the EPA in November 2004, identifying potential violations of the ODS requirements at several of its facilities. In addition to the matters covered in the Companys audit report letter to the EPA, the EPA previously sent Mead Johnson a request for information regarding compliance with ODS requirements at its facility in Evansville, Indiana. The Company responded to the request in June 2004, and, as a result, identified potential violations at the Evansville facility. The Company signed a Consent Decree with the EPA to resolve both the potential violations discovered during the audit and those identified as a result of the EPA request for information to the Evansville facility, which was filed in the Evansville Division of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana on July 8, 2008. The Consent Decree required the Company to pay a civil penalty of $127 thousand and to retire, retrofit or replace 17 ODS-containing refrigeration units by June 2009 located at facilities in New Jersey, Indiana, and Puerto Rico. The Consent Decree also required the Company to spend at least $2,225 thousand on a Supplemental Environmental Project, which consists of the removal of two ODS-containing comfort cooling devices at the New Brunswick, NJ facility and the tie in of their functions to a new centralized
34
Note 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies (Continued)
chiller system that does not use ODS as a refrigerant. The Court entered the Consent Decree on May 6, 2009, the $127 thousand civil penalty was paid on June 4, 2009, and the Company will complete all of its obligations under the Consent Decree by July 31, 2009, as required.
Note 22. Subsequent Event
On July 22, 2009, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Medarex announced that the companies signed a definitive merger agreement that provides for the acquisition of Medarex by Bristol-Myers Squibb for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.4 billion. Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement, Bristol-Myers Squibb will commence a cash tender offer on or about July 27, 2009 to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Medarex common stock for $16.00 per share in cash.
The closing of the transaction is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2009 subject to, among other items, at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Medarex being tendered (including the shares already owned by Bristol-Myers Squibb) and customary regulatory approvals.
The companies have collaborated on the development of ipilimumab, a novel immunotherapy currently in Phase III development for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.

Net Sales
The Companys net sales increased 3% despite a 5% unfavorable foreign exchange impact for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. PLAVIX* (clopidogrel bisulfate) and ABILIFY* (aripiprazole) continue to drive sales growth with sales increases of 11% and 22% for the three months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and 10% and 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. Significant contributions to sales growth were also provided by the Companys virology portfolio, led by the HIV portfolio, which consists of the SUSTIVA (efavirenz) Franchise and REYATAZ (atazanavir sulfate), and BARACLUDE (entecavir), and other key products including ORENCIA (abatacept) and SPRYCEL (dasatinab). ERBITUX* (cetuximab) sales were down 12% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.
Net Earnings
The increase in net earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was attributed to sales growth, improvement in gross margins and cost improvements in marketing, selling and administrative due to productivity transformation initiative (PTI) savings. Gross margin improvement is attributed to realized manufacturing savings from the Companys PTI, other manufacturing efficiencies; favorable foreign exchange impact; cost improvements, favorable product mix and price increases.
Strategy
The Company continues to execute its multi-year strategy to transform into a next-generation biopharmaceutical company. The strategy encompasses all aspects and all geographies of the business and will yield substantial cost savings and cost avoidance and increase the Companys financial flexibility to take advantage of attractive market opportunities that may arise.
As part of the Companys strategy, in the first quarter of 2009 its subsidiary Mead Johnson completed an initial public offering of its Class A common stock. Net proceeds received were $782 million post initial public offering (IPO), and the Company holds an 83.1% interest in Mead Johnson and 97.5% of the combined voting power of the outstanding common stock.
In addition, the Company extended its ABILIFY* comarketing agreement in the U.S. and entered into an oncology collaboration in the U.S., Japan and European Union (EU) markets with Otsuka Pharmaceutical Company Ltd. (Otsuka) in April 2009.
Managing costs is one part of the Companys overall strategy. The Companys announced PTI is designed to create a total of $2.5 billion in annual productivity savings and cost avoidance by 2012. The charges associated with the PTI are estimated to be in the range of $1.3 billion to $1.6 billion, which includes $806 million of costs already incurred.
36
The Company will continue to focus on the development of its BioPharmaceuticals business and will maintain growth by investing in research and development as well as in key growth products, including specialty and biologic medicines and cardiovascular and metabolic drugs. The Company is seeking to reallocate resources to continue its string of pearls strategy and enable strategic transactions, which could range from collaboration and license agreements to outright acquisition of companies.
On July 22, 2009, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Medarex, Inc. (Medarex) announced that the companies signed a definitive merger agreement that provides for the acquisition of Medarex by Bristol-Myers Squibb for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.4 billion. See Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 22. Subsequent Event for further discussion.
Product and Pipeline Developments
Belatacept
| In May 2009, belatacept, an investigational co-stimulation blocker being studied for use in solid organ transplantation, was the subject of nine company-sponsored clinical presentations (including the first Phase III data) at the American Transplant Congress. The data suggest that belatacept may represent a promising therapeutic option for kidney transplant patients. |
ERBITUX*
| On July 20, the Company and Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved revisions to the U.S. prescribing information for ERBITUX* concerning the treatment of patients with an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressing metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The labeling revisions include a modification which states that ERBITUX* is not recommended for patients whose tumors had K-ras mutations in codon 12 or 13. An estimated 40% of patients with mCRC have K-ras mutations while the majority, approximately 60%, has a wild-type K-ras gene. |
SPRYCEL
| In May 2009, at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting, the Company presented interim results from two Phase II SPRYCEL studies, which demonstrate that SPRYCEL may have potential as a treatment for a castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). A Phase III study of SPRYCEL in CRPC is currently ongoing. |
| In May 2009, the Company announced that the FDA has granted full approval for SPRYCEL for the treatment of adults in all phases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) (chronic, accelerated, or myeloid or lymphoid blast phase) with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy including GLEEVEC* (imatinib mesylate). |
Dapagliflozin
| In June 2009, at the American Diabetes Association Annual Scientific Sessions, a 12-week study of dapagliflozin was presented which demonstrated improved glycemic control in inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes patients who were treated with high doses of insulin and common oral anti-diabetic medicines. |
ONGLYZA
| In June 2009, the Company and AstraZeneca PLC (AstraZeneca) announced that the marketing authorization application for ONGLYZA (saxagliptin) received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults as add-on therapy with metformin, a thiazolidinedione or a sulphonylurea. |
| In June 2009, at the American Diabetes Association Annual Scientific Sessions, interim analysis (at 102 weeks) of a 42-month long-term Phase III extension study was presented which showed that when ONGLYZA was added to metformin in patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes, the profile of adverse events was consistent with that seen at 24 weeks, and the treatment regimen produced long-term glycemic improvement. |
| In April 2009, the Company and AstraZeneca announced that the Prescription Drug User Fee Act date, which is the date by which a decision from the FDA is expected, for ONGLYZA was extended from April 30, 2009 to July 30, 2009. |
Ipilimumab
| In May 2009, the Company and Medarex announced, at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting, that updated survival results from follow-up extensions of three Phase II studies show a two-year survival ranging from 30% to 42% in patients with advanced metastatic melanoma (Stage III or IV). |
37
XL184
| In May 2009, the Company and Exelixis reported, at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting, encouraging data from an ongoing Phase II trial of XL184 in patients with previously-treated glioblastoma multiforme, the most common and aggressive form of brain tumor. |
ORENCIA
| In June 2009, the Company announced, at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology (EULAR), the results of two studies that demonstrated the consistent safety and effectiveness over five and seven years of treatment in rheumatoid arthritis patients who have had an inadequate response to methotrexate. |

The increase in U.S. net sales was driven by growth in key U.S. biopharmaceutical products, which are described below in further detail. Decreases in international net sales were primarily due to a strengthening U.S. dollar relative to certain foreign currencies, especially the euro and U.K. pound, and generic competition for PLAVIX* in the EU and certain mature brands. These decreases were partially offset by growth in certain key products, including BARACLUDE, the HIV portfolio, SPRYCEL, ORENCIA and Mead Johnson products.
In general, the Companys business is not seasonal. For information on U.S. biopharmaceutical prescriber demand, reference is made to the table within BioPharmaceuticals below, which sets forth a comparison of changes in net sales to the estimated total prescription growth (for both retail and mail order customers) for certain key biopharmaceuticals products and new products sold by the U.S. BioPharmaceuticals business. The U.S. and non-U.S. net sales are based upon the location of the customer.

Gross-to-net sales adjustments increased by 2%. Prime vendor charge-backs increased by 10% primarily due to higher government sales of PLAVIX* and higher rebates on ORENCIA. Managed health care rebates and other contract discounts increased by 21%, primarily due to higher PLAVIX* Medicare sales and an increase in contractual discount rates. Medicaid rebates decreased by 13% due to the recovery of net overpayments related to the three year period 2002 through 2004 offset by higher rebates.

U.S. biopharmaceutical net sales increased primarily due to increased sales of PLAVIX*, ABILIFY*, the HIV portfolio and ORENCIA. International biopharmaceutical net sales decreased as a result of unfavorable foreign exchange rates due to the strengthening U.S. dollar, which more than offset increased sales of BARACLUDE, SPRYCEL, the HIV portfolio and ABILIFY*. The Companys reported international net sales do not include copromotion sales reported by its alliance partner, sanofi-aventis (sanofi) for PLAVIX* and AVAPRO*/AVALIDE* (irbesartan/irbesartan-hydrochlorothiazide).

PLAVIX* | a platelet aggregation inhibitor that is part of the Companys alliance with sanofi |
| U.S. net sales increased primarily due to higher average selling prices and increased demand. Estimated total U.S. prescription demand increased approximately 3%. |
| International net sales were negatively impacted by the August 2008 launch in Germany of a clopidogrel alternative salt (clopidogrel besylate) and subsequent launches of other generic clopidogrel products in the EU. |
| See Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 21. Legal Proceedings and ContingenciesPLAVIX* Litigation. |
AVAPRO*/AVALIDE* | (known in the EU as APROVEL*/KARVEA*) an angiotensin II receptor blocker for the treatment of |
hypertension and diabetic nephropathy that is also part of the sanofi alliance |
| U.S. net sales decreased primarily due to lower demand partially offset by higher average selling prices. Estimated total U.S. prescription demand decreased approximately 10%. |
| International sales decreased primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange. In Spain, APROVEL*/KARVEA* began to experience generic competition in the first quarter of 2009 and the Company expects this competition to increase over time. In 2008, the Companys annual net sales of KARVEA* in Spain were $57 million. |
REYATAZ | a protease inhibitor for the treatment of HIV |
| U.S. net sales increased primarily due to higher estimated total U.S. prescription demand of approximately 7%. |
| International net sales decreased primarily due to unfavorable foreign exchange, which more than offset higher demand across most markets. |
SUSTIVA | Franchise a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of HIV, which includes SUSTIVA, an antiretroviral drug, and bulk efavirenz, which is also included in the combination therapy, ATRIPLA* (efavirenz 600mg/emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg), a product sold through a joint venture with Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Gilead) |
| U.S. net sales increased primarily due to higher demand as well as higher average selling prices. Estimated total U.S. prescription demand increased approximately 9%. |
| International net sales increased despite unfavorable foreign exchange primarily due to continued demand generated from the launch of ATRIPLA* in Canada and the EU in the fourth quarter of 2007. |
| In April 2009, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. (Teva) filed an Abbreviated New Drug Application with the FDA to manufacture and market a generic version of ATRIPLA*. In May 2009, Gilead filed a patent infringement action against Teva. For further details see Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies. |
BARACLUDE | an oral antiviral agent for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B |
| Worldwide net sales increased primarily due to continued growth across all markets, particularly international markets. |
| There continues to be increased awareness and acceptance of its long-term efficacy, safety and resistance as evidenced by the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease recommendation of BARACLUDE as a first-line treatment option. |
ERBITUX* | a monoclonal antibody designed to exclusively target and block the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, which is expressed on the surface of certain cancer cells in multiple tumor types as well as normal cells and is currently indicated for use against colorectal cancer and head and neck cancer. ERBITUX* is part of the Companys strategic alliance with Lilly |
| U.S. net sales decreased primarily due to study results released in 2008 regarding the impact of the K-ras gene expression on the effectiveness on patients with colorectal cancer. |
SPRYCEL | an oral inhibitor of multiple tyrosine kinases, for the treatment of adults with chronic, accelerated, or myeloid or lymphoid blast phase chronic myeloid leukemia with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy, including GLEEVEC* (imatinib meslylate), which is part of the Companys strategic alliance with Otsuka |
| Worldwide net sales increased primarily due to higher demand in previously launched markets, growth attributed to recently launched markets as well as higher U.S. average selling prices. |
41
IXEMPRA | a microtubule inhibitor for the treatment of patients with metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer, which is part of the Companys strategic alliance with Otsuka |
| Worldwide net sales were relatively flat. |
ABILIFY* | an antipsychotic agent for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar mania disorder and major depressive disorder and is part of the Companys strategic alliance with Otsuka |
| U.S. net sales increased primarily due to increased demand. Estimated total U.S. prescription demand increased approximately 29% and was primarily attributed to the 2008 and 2007 indications for certain patients with bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. |
| International net sales increased primarily due to increased prescription demand, which was aided by a new bipolar indication in the second quarter of 2008 in the EU. |
ORENCIA | a fusion protein indicated for adult patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have had an inadequate response to one or more currently available treatments, such as methotrexate or anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy |
| Worldwide net sales increased primarily due to increased demand. |
The estimated U.S. prescription change data provided throughout this report includes information only from the retail and mail order channels and does not reflect information from other channels such as hospitals, home health care, clinics, federal facilities including VA hospitals, and long-term care, among others.
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company changed its service provider for U.S. prescription data to Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. (WK), a supplier of market research audit data for the pharmaceutical industry, for external reporting purposes and internal demand for most products. Prior to 2009, the Company used prescription data based on the Next-Generation Prescription Service Version 2.0 of the National Prescription Audit provided by IMS Health (IMS). The Company continuously seeks to improve the quality of its estimates of prescription change amounts and ultimate patient/consumer demand by reviewing estimate calculation methodologies, processes, and analyzing internal and third-party data. The Company expects that it will continue to review and refine its methodologies and processes for calculation of these estimates and will continue to review and analyze its own and third-parties data used in such calculations.
The estimated prescription data is based on the Source Prescription Audit provided by the above suppliers and is a product of their respective recordkeeping and projection processes. As such, the data is subject to the inherent limitations of estimates based on sampling and may include a margin of error.
The Company has calculated the estimated total U.S. prescription change on a weighted-average basis to reflect the fact that mail order prescriptions include a greater volume of product supplied, compared to retail prescriptions. Mail order prescriptions typically reflect a 90-day prescription whereas retail prescriptions typically reflect a 30-day prescription. The calculation is derived by multiplying mail order prescription data by a factor that approximates three and adding to this the retail prescriptions. The Company believes that a calculation of estimated total U.S. prescription change based on this weighted-average approach, with respect to retail and mail order channels, provides a superior estimate of total prescription demand. The Company uses this methodology for its internal demand reporting.

Pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Consent Order described below under SEC Consent Order, the Company monitors the level of inventory on hand in the U.S. wholesaler distribution channel and outside of the U.S. in the direct customer distribution channel. The Company is obligated to disclose products with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand, subject to a de minimis exception. The Company discloses U.S. biopharmaceuticals products that had estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel in excess of one month on hand at June 30, 2009, and international biopharmaceuticals and Mead Johnson products that had estimated levels of inventory in the distribution channel in excess of one month on hand at March 31, 2009. Below is a discussion of those products that meet these criteria:
At March 31, 2009, FERVEX, a cold and flu product, had approximately 2.8 months of inventory on hand at direct customers compared to approximately 1.4 months of inventory on hand at December 31, 2008. The increased level of inventory on hand was primarily due to seasonality, changes in repackaging and other changes in the over-the-counter model in France.
At March 31, 2009, VIDEX/VIDEX EC, an antiviral product, had approximately 1.3 months of inventory on hand at direct customers compared to approximately 1.4 months of inventory on hand at December 31, 2008. The level of inventory on hand was primarily due to government purchasing patterns in Brazil. The Company is contractually obligated to provide VIDEX/VIDEX EC to the Brazilian government upon placement of an order for product by the government. Under the terms of the contract, the Company had no control over the inventory levels relating to such orders.
In the U.S., for all products sold exclusively through wholesalers or through distributors, the Company determines its months on hand estimates using information with respect to inventory levels of product on hand and the amount of out-movement of products provided by the Companys three largest wholesalers, which account for approximately 90% of total gross sales of U.S. BioPharmaceuticals products, and provided by the Companys distributors. Factors that may influence the Companys estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, wholesaler purchases in light of increases in wholesaler list prices, new product launches, new warehouse openings by wholesalers and new customer stockings by wholesalers. In addition, these estimates are calculated using third-party data, which may be impacted by their record keeping processes.
43
For biopharmaceutical products in the U.S. that are not sold exclusively through wholesalers or distributors and for the Companys BioPharmaceuticals business outside of the U.S. and Mead Johnson business units around the world, the Company has significantly more direct customers. Limited information on direct customer product level inventory and corresponding out-movement information and the reliability of third-party demand information, where available, varies widely. In cases where direct customer product level inventory, ultimate patient/consumer demand or out-movement data does not exist or is otherwise not available, the Company has developed a variety of other methodologies to calculate estimates of such data, including using such factors as historical sales made to direct customers and third-party market research data related to prescription trends and end-user demand. Accordingly, the Company relies on a variety of methods to estimate direct customer product level inventory and to calculate months on hand for these business units. Factors that may affect the Companys estimates include generic competition, seasonality of products, direct customer purchases in light of price increases, new product or product presentation launches, new warehouse openings by direct customers, new customer stockings by direct customers and expected direct customer purchases for governmental bidding situations. As such, all of the information required to estimate months on hand in the direct customer distribution channel for non-U.S. BioPharmaceuticals business for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 is not available prior to the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company will disclose any product with levels of inventory in excess of one month on hand or expected demand, subject to a de minimis exception, in the next quarterly report Form 10-Q.

The Asia/Latin America segment 2% increase was comprised of a 9% benefit from price and 1% from volume, partly offset by an 8% adverse impact of foreign exchange. The North America/Europe segment 5% decrease was comprised of 3% lower pricing, and a 3% decline due to foreign exchange, which was offset by a 1% increase in volume. Total sales growth was 5%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Performance was driven by double digit sales growth in key Asian markets, including China, Hong Kong and Malaysia as well as a number of markets in Latin America, partly offset by a decline in U.S. net sales.
Geographic Areas
In general, the Companys products are available in most countries in the world. The largest markets are in the U.S., France, Japan, Spain, Canada, Italy, Germany and China. The Companys net sales by geographic areas, based on the location of the customer, were as follows:

Cost of products sold
| The improvement in cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to realized manufacturing savings from PTI, other manufacturing efficiencies, favorable foreign exchange impact, favorable worldwide biopharmaceuticals product sales mix, and higher U.S. biopharmaceuticals average selling prices. These factors were partially offset by product and material price increases. The 2009 costs include manufacturing rationalization charges of $24 million related to the implementation of PTI, compared to $58 million of rationalization charges recorded in 2008. |
Marketing, selling and administrative
| The decrease, including a favorable 6% foreign exchange impact, was primarily due to PTI. |
Advertising and product promotion
| The decrease was primarily due to a favorable 5% foreign exchange impact. |
Research and development
| Remained flat despite a favorable 3% foreign exchange impact. Upfront and milestone payments were $29 million in 2009 and $31 million in 2008. In addition, key alliance partners share of development costs of $52 in 2009 and $83 million in 2008 are netted against research and development. For further details, see Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 2. Alliances and Collaborations. |
Acquired in-process research and development
| The charge in 2008 related to in-process research and development costs from the acquisition of Kosan, which was immediately expensed. |
Provision for restructuring, net
| The decrease was primarily due to the timing of the implementation of PTI. |
Litigation expense, net
| The increase was due to an additional $25 million reserve related to securities litigation. For further details refer to Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 21. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies. |

Equity in net income of affiliates
| Equity in net income of affiliates was flat and primarily related to the Companys international joint venture. See Item 1. Financial StatementsNote 2. Alliances and Collaborations. |

| Interest expense decreased primarily due to lower interest rates and the amortization of basis adjustment resulting from the termination of interest rate swaps during 2009 and 2008. |
| Interest income relates primarily to interest earned on cash, cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities. The decrease was primarily due to a change in mix of the Companys investment portfolio as well as a decrease in rates of returns on marketable securities, including U.S. Treasury Bills. |
| Foreign exchange transaction losses were primarily due to a weakening U.S. dollar impact on non-qualifying foreign exchange hedges and the re-measurement of non-functional currency denominated transactions. |
| Gain on sale of product lines, businesses and assets were primarily related to the sale of trademarks and mature brands. |
| Net royalty and alliance partners activity includes income earned from the sanofi partnership and amortization of certain upfront and milestone payments related to the Companys alliances. |
| Other, net includes income from third-party contract manufacturing, gains and losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment, deferred income recognized, certain litigation charges/recoveries, and ConvaTec and Medical Imaging net transitional service fees. |
