Pfizer Issues Prelim. Results for Zoetis Exchange Offer, Says 1.68B Shares Tendered, Sees Separation Adding to EPS

Pfizer Inc. PFE today announced that, based on preliminary results, its previously announced offer to its shareholders to exchange all, some or none of their shares of Pfizer common stock for shares of Zoetis Inc. ZTS common stock owned by Pfizer was oversubscribed. The exchange offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on June 21, 2013. Under the terms of the exchange offer, 0.9898 shares of Zoetis common stock will be exchanged for each share of Pfizer common stock accepted in the exchange offer. According to the exchange agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., 1,680,439,287 shares of Pfizer common stock were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, including 497,530,121 shares that were tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery. Pfizer has accepted 405,117,195 of the tendered shares in exchange for the 400,985,000 shares of Zoetis common stock owned by Pfizer. Because the exchange offer was oversubscribed, Pfizer accepted only a portion of the shares of its common stock that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of shares tendered. Shareholders who owned fewer than 100 shares of Pfizer common stock, or an “odd-lot”, who have validly tendered all of their shares and made the appropriate election, will not be subject to proration, in accordance with the terms of the exchange offer. Based on the total number of shares of Pfizer common stock reported to be tendered prior to the expiration of the exchange offer, it is estimated that approximately 24% of the tendered shares of Pfizer common stock will be exchanged, assuming all shares tendered by guaranteed delivery procedures are delivered under the terms of the exchange offer. This preliminary proration factor is subject to change based on the number of tendered shares that satisfy the guaranteed delivery procedures, as well as the number of “odd-lot” shares that were validly tendered and not subject to proration. Pfizer expects to announce the final proration factor promptly following the expiration of the guaranteed delivery period, which is expected to occur on June 26, 2013. Shares of Pfizer common stock tendered but not accepted for exchange will be returned to the tendering shareholders in book-entry form promptly after the final proration factor is announced. Promptly after the final proration factor is announced, the exchange agent will credit shares of Zoetis common stock for distribution in the exchange offer in book-entry form to accounts maintained by the Zoetis transfer agent for tendering shareholders who have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn their shares of Pfizer common stock. Checks in lieu of fractional shares of Zoetis common stock will be delivered after the exchange agent has aggregated all fractional shares and sold them in the open market. Following the expiration of the exchange offer, Pfizer converted all of its Zoetis Class B common stock into Zoetis Class A common stock and, as noted above, all such converted Class A common stock will be distributed to Pfizer shareholders who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their shares of Pfizer common stock. As a result, Pfizer no longer holds any ownership interest in Zoetis. Pfizer continues to expect the full separation of Zoetis to be accretive on a full-year basis to Pfizer's Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2) and Reported Diluted EPS^(3) in 2014. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs & Co. and Morgan Stanley served as the dealer managers for the exchange offer. 2013 Financial Guidance^(1) As a result of the full separation of Zoetis, Pfizer will now present Zoetis' financial results from January 1, 2013 to June 24, 2013 as a discontinued operation. Pfizer is adjusting its 2013 financial guidance solely to reflect the impact of the Zoetis exchange offer. The adjustment reflects modifications to the following components: * Reported Revenues, Adjusted Cost of Sales as a Percent of Revenues^(2), Adjusted SI&A Expenses^(2), Adjusted R&D Expenses^(2) and Adjusted Other (Income)/Deductions^(2) : Actual and projected revenue and expense contributions of Zoetis have been excluded for the full-year 2013 from these components. While such contributions of Zoetis also have been excluded for the full-year 2013 from the Effective Tax Rate on Adjusted Income^(2) , this did not result in a change in that component. * Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2): Actual and projected financial results of Zoetis have been excluded for the full-year 2013 through: * The presentation of Zoetis financial results as a discontinued operation from January 1, 2013 to June 24, 2013. Zoetis was wholly owned by Pfizer through February 6, 2013, and 80.2% owned by Pfizer from February 7, 2013 to June 24, 2013. * The removal of the 80.2% of Zoetis projected financial results from June 24, 2013 through December 31, 2013. In addition, the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2) reflects the net reduction^(4) in shares of Pfizer's outstanding common stock as a result of the exchange offer. Because this net reduction^(4) occurred on June 24, 2013, Pfizer will recognize only a partial-year benefit to its full-year 2013 Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2). The impact of the removal of the full-year 2013 financial contribution of Zoetis as well as the impact of the partial-year benefit from the net reduction^(4) in shares of Pfizer's outstanding common stock due to the exchange offer resulted in a $0.04 decrease to the upper and lower ends of Pfizer's projected range for 2013 Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2). * Reported Diluted EPS^(3): * As previously mentioned, the financial results of Zoetis from January 1, 2013 to June 24, 2013 are presented as a discontinued operation and, accordingly, continue to impact full-year 2013 guidance for Reported Diluted EPS^(3). * Full-year 2013 guidance for Reported Diluted EPS^(3) excludes the 80.2% of Zoetis projected financial results from June 24, 2013 through December 31, 2013. * Full-year 2013 guidance for Reported Diluted EPS^(3) reflects the partial-year benefit of the net reduction^(4) in weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate Reported Diluted EPS^(3). * Full-year 2013 guidance for Reported Diluted EPS^(3) was not adjusted to reflect the gain on the disposition of shares of Zoetis common stock. * The impact of the removal of the financial contribution of Zoetis from June 24, 2013 through December 31, 2013, as well as the impact of the partial-year benefit of the net reduction^(4) in shares of Pfizer's outstanding common stock due to the exchange offer, did not result in a change to Pfizer's projected range for 2013 Reported Diluted EPS^(3).   $50.8 to $52.8 billion Reported Revenues   (previously $55.3 to $57.3 billion) Adjusted Cost of Sales^(2) as a Percent of 18.0% to 19.0% Revenues   (previously 19.0% to 20.0%) $14.2 to $15.2 billion Adjusted SI&A Expenses^(2)   (previously $15.6 to $16.6 billion) $6.1 to $6.6 billion Adjusted R&D Expenses^(2)   (previously $6.5 to $7.0 billion) Approximately $800 million Adjusted Other (Income)/Deductions^(2)   (previously approximately $900 million) Effective Tax Rate on Adjusted Income^(2)   Approximately 28.0% Reported Diluted EPS^(3)   $1.44 to $1.59 $2.10 to $2.20 Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2)   (previously $2.14 to $2.24) (1) The 2013 financial guidance has been developed using the following estimates, assumptions and approaches: * Does not assume the completion of any business development transactions not completed as of March 31, 2013, including any one-time upfront payments associated with such transactions, except for the Zoetis exchange offer. * Reflects the impact of the Zoetis exchange offer, except for the gain on the disposition of shares of Zoetis common stock. * Excludes the potential effects of the resolution of litigation-related matters not substantially resolved as of March 31, 2013. * Assumes exchange rates that are a blend of the actual exchange rates in effect during the first three months of 2013 and the mid-April 2013 exchange rates for the remainder of the year. The reconciliation of the 2013 Adjusted Income^(2) and Adjusted Diluted EPS^(2) guidance to the 2013 Reported Net Income Attributable to Pfizer Inc. and Reported Diluted EPS Attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders guidance is as follows: ($ in billions, except per share amounts)   Income/(Expense)   Net Income   Diluted EPS Adjusted Income/Diluted EPS^(2) Guidance ~$14.4-$15.1 ~$2.10-$2.20 Purchase accounting impacts of transactions (3.4) (0.50) completed as of March 31, 2013 Acquisition-related costs (0.4 - 0.5) (0.06 - 0.07) Certain other items, including (0.5 – 0.8) (0.08 - 0.12) non-acquisition-related restructuring costs Discontinued Operations 0.2 0.03 Reported Net Income Attributable to Pfizer   ~$9.9-$11.0 ~$1.44-$1.59 Inc./Diluted EPS^(3) Guidance (2) "Adjusted Income" and its components and "Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS)" are defined as reported U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net income^(3) and its components and reported diluted EPS^(3) excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs, discontinued operations and certain significant items. Adjusted Cost of Sales, Adjusted Selling, Informational and Administrative (SI&A) expenses, Adjusted Research and Development (R&D) expenses and Adjusted Other (Income)/Deductions are income statement line items prepared on the same basis, and, therefore, components of the overall adjusted income measure. As described under Adjusted Income in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of Pfizer's Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2013, management uses adjusted income, among other factors, to set performance goals and to measure the performance of the overall company. We believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this measure. See the accompanying reconciliations of full-year 2013 guidance for adjusted income and adjusted diluted EPS to full-year 2013 guidance for reported net income^(3) and reported diluted EPS^(3). The adjusted income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS. (3) “Reported Net Income” is defined as net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. in accordance with U.S. GAAP. “Reported Diluted EPS” is defined as reported diluted EPS attributable to Pfizer Inc. common shareholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP. (4) The impact of the Zoetis exchange offer on the full-year weighted average shares outstanding also includes the negative impact on anticipated full-year share repurchases because of the prohibition imposed by law on share repurchases during and for 10 business days after the exchange offer period.
