Abbott Laboratories and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2011
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation and Change in Accounting Principle
The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been made. It is suggested that these statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in Abbott’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany transactions. Prior to January 1, 2011, the accounts of foreign subsidiaries were consolidated based on a fiscal year ended November 30 due to the time needed to consolidate these subsidiaries. Effective January 1, 2011, the one month lag in the consolidation of the accounts of foreign subsidiaries was eliminated and the year-end of foreign subsidiaries was changed to December 31. Abbott believes that the change in accounting principle related to the elimination of the one month reporting lag is preferable because it will result in more contemporaneous reporting of the results of foreign subsidiaries. In accordance with applicable accounting literature, a change in subsidiaries’ year-end is treated as a change in accounting principle and requires retrospective application. The cumulative effect of the change was an increase in retained earnings of $289 million as of January 1, 2009 and a corresponding decrease in other long-term liabilities. The impact of the change was not material to the results of operations for the previously reported annual and interim periods after January 1, 2009, and thus, those results have not been revised. A charge of $137 million was recorded to Other (income) expense, net in the three months ended March 31, 2011 to recognize the cumulative immaterial impacts to 2009 and 2010. Had the financial statements been revised, net sales, operating earnings and net earnings in calendar 2009 would have increased by $211 million, $36 million and $38 million, respectively, and net sales, operating earnings and net earnings in calendar 2010 would have decreased by $21 million, $195 million and $175 million, respectively. In addition, net sales and net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2010 would have decreased by $174 million and $3 million, respectively, and operating earnings would have increased by $5 million and net sales, operating earnings and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2010 would have increased by $94 million, $38 million and $35 million, respectively.
Note 2 — Supplemental Financial Information
Unvested restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are treated as participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities. Net earnings allocated to common shares for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 were $1.934 billion and $2.796 billion, respectively, and net earnings allocated to common shares for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 were $1.287 billion and $2.288 billion, respectively.
Net foreign exchange loss (gain) for the first six months of 2010 includes a charge of approximately $86 million for the impact of the devaluation of the bolivar currency in Venezuela on balance sheet translation.
Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2011 and 2010 includes the effects of contributions to defined benefit plans of $320 million and $490 million, respectively, and to the post-employment medical and dental benefit plans of $40 million and $66 million, respectively. In addition, Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2011 includes the non-cash impact of the $519 million of tax benefits recorded in the second quarter of 2011 related to the favorable resolution of various tax positions pertaining to prior years.
The judgment entered by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas against Abbott in its litigation with New York University and Centocor, Inc. required Abbott to secure the judgment in the event that its appeal to the Federal Circuit court was unsuccessful in overturning the district court’s decision. In the first quarter of 2010, Abbott deposited $1.87 billion with an escrow agent and considered these assets to be restricted. On February 23, 2011, the Federal Circuit reversed the district court’s final judgment and found Centocor’s patent invalid. On April 25, 2011 Centocor petitioned the Federal Circuit to rehear and reconsider the decision. In June 2011 the Federal Circuit denied Centocor’s petition, the restrictions on the funds were lifted and the funds are now classified as short-term investments.

Note 3 — Taxes on Earnings
Taxes on earnings reflect the estimated annual effective rates and include charges for interest and penalties. The effective tax rates are less than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate principally due to the benefit of lower statutory tax rates and tax exemptions in several foreign taxing jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2011, the change in the effective tax rate reflects the recognition of $519 million of tax benefits as a result of the favorable resolution of various tax positions pertaining to prior years, which also decreased the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $1.2 billion. Abbott believes that it is reasonably possible that the recorded amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $500 million, including cash adjustments, within the next twelve months as a result of concluding various tax matters.
As a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act which were signed into law in the first quarter of 2010, Abbott recorded a charge of approximately $60 million in the first quarter 2010 to reduce deferred tax assets associated with retiree health care liabilities related to the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy.
Note 4 — Litigation and Environmental Matters
Abbott has been identified as a potentially responsible party for investigation and cleanup costs at a number of locations in the United States and Puerto Rico under federal and state remediation laws and is investigating potential contamination at a number of company-owned locations. Abbott has recorded an estimated cleanup cost for each site for which management believes Abbott has a probable loss exposure. No individual site cleanup exposure is expected to exceed $3 million, and the aggregate cleanup exposure is not expected to exceed $15 million.
There are a number of patent disputes with third parties who claim Abbott’s products infringe their patents. In April 2007, New York University (NYU) and Centocor, Inc. filed a lawsuit in the Eastern District of Texas asserting that HUMIRA infringes a patent co-owned by NYU and Centocor and exclusively licensed to Centocor. In June 2009, a jury found that Abbott had willfully infringed the patent and awarded NYU and Centocor approximately $1.67 billion in past compensatory damages. In December 2009, the district court issued a final judgment and awarded the plaintiffs an additional $175 million in prejudgment interest. On February 23, 2011, the Federal Circuit reversed the district court’s final judgment and found Centocor’s patent invalid. On April 25, 2011 Centocor petitioned the Federal Circuit to rehear and reconsider the decision. In June 2011 the Federal Circuit denied Centocor’s request to reconsider. Absent obtaining an extension of time from the court, Centocor has until September 12, 2011 to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to review the Federal Circuit’s decision. Abbott is confident in the merits of its case and, as a result, no reserves have been recorded in this case.
The United States Department of Justice, through the United States Attorney for the Western District of Virginia, is investigating Abbott’s sales and marketing activities for Depakote . The government is seeking to determine whether any of these activities violated civil and/or criminal laws, including the Federal False Claims Act, the Food and Drug Cosmetic Act, and the anti-Kickback Statute in connection with Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement to third parties. Discussions are ongoing in an effort to resolve potential civil and criminal claims arising from this matter. Abbott is unable to predict the outcome of this matter or to estimate the range or amount of possible loss and no loss reserves have been recorded for this exposure.
Within the next year, legal proceedings may occur that may result in a change in the estimated reserves recorded by Abbott. For its legal proceedings and environmental exposures Abbott estimates the range of possible loss to be from approximately $85 million to $120 million. The recorded reserve balance at June 30, 2011 for these proceedings and exposures was approximately $100 million. These reserves represent management’s best estimate of probable loss, as defined by FASB ASC No. 450, “Contingencies.”
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2011
(Unaudited), continued
While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of all such proceedings and exposures with certainty, management believes that their ultimate disposition should not have a material adverse effect on Abbott’s financial position, cash flows, or results of operations except for the government investigation discussed in the third paragraph of this footnote, the resolution of which could be material to cash flows or the results of operations in a given year.
Note 5 — Post-Employment Benefits
Retirement plans consist of defined benefit, defined contribution, and medical and dental plans. Net cost for the three and six months ended June 30 for Abbott’s major defined benefit plans and post-employment medical and dental benefit plans is as follows:

Note 7 — Segment Information
Abbott’s principal business is the discovery, development, manufacture and sale of a broad line of health care products. Abbott’s products are generally sold directly to retailers, wholesalers, hospitals, health care facilities, laboratories, physicians’ offices and government agencies throughout the world. Effective January 1, 2011, Abbott’s segments were reorganized to reflect the shift of international branded generic pharmaceutical products to a newly formed division, Established Pharmaceuticals, and the combination of the domestic and international proprietary pharmaceuticals businesses into one global division. The segment information below has been adjusted to reflect the reorganizations. Abbott’s reportable segments are as follows:
Proprietary Pharmaceutical Products — Worldwide sales of a broad line of proprietary pharmaceutical products.
Established Pharmaceutical Products — International sales of a broad line of branded generic pharmaceutical products.
Nutritional Products — Worldwide sales of a broad line of adult and pediatric nutritional products.
Diagnostic Products — Worldwide sales of diagnostic systems and tests for blood banks, hospitals, commercial laboratories and alternate-care testing sites. For segment reporting purposes, the Core Laboratories Diagnostics, Molecular Diagnostics, Point of Care and Ibis diagnostic divisions are aggregated and reported as the Diagnostic Products segment.
Vascular Products — Worldwide sales of coronary, endovascular, structural heart, vessel closure and other medical device products.
Non-reportable segments include the Diabetes Care and Medical Optics segments.
Abbott’s underlying accounting records are maintained on a legal entity basis for government and public reporting requirements. Segment disclosures are on a performance basis consistent with internal management reporting. Intersegment transfers of inventory are recorded at standard cost and are not a measure of segment operating earnings. The cost of some corporate functions and the cost of certain employee benefits are charged to segments at predetermined rates that approximate cost. Remaining costs, if any, are not allocated to segments. For acquisitions prior to 2006, substantially all intangible assets and related amortization are not allocated to segments. In addition, no intangible assets or related amortization are allocated to the Established Pharmaceutical Products segment. The following segment information has been prepared in accordance with the internal accounting policies of Abbott, as described above, and are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied to the consolidated financial statements.

Note 8 — Incentive Stock Programs
In the first six months of 2011, Abbott granted 1,722,739 stock options, 509,839 replacement stock options, 1,167,570 restricted stock awards and 6,475,532 restricted stock units under these programs. At June 30, 2011, approximately 180 million shares were reserved for future grants. Information regarding the number of options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2011 is as follows:

Note 9 — Business Combinations and Technology Acquisitions
In February 2010, Abbott acquired Solvay’s pharmaceuticals business (Solvay Pharmaceuticals) for approximately $6.1 billion, in cash, plus additional payments of up to EUR 100 million per year if certain sales milestones are met in 2011, 2012 and 2013. Contingent consideration of approximately $290 million was recorded. The acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals provides Abbott with a large and complementary portfolio of pharmaceutical products and expands Abbott’s presence in key global emerging markets. Abbott acquired control of this business on February 15, 2010 and the financial results of the acquired operations are included in these financial statements beginning on that date. The acquisition was funded with cash and short-term investments. The allocation of the fair value of the acquisition is shown in the table below (in billions of dollars) .

Acquired intangible assets consist primarily of product rights for currently marketed products and are amortized over 2 to 14 years (average of 11 years). Acquired in-process research and development projects are accounted for as indefinite lived intangible assets until regulatory approval or discontinuation. The net tangible assets acquired consist primarily of trade accounts receivable of approximately $675 million, inventory of approximately $390 million, property and equipment of approximately $725 million, net of assumed liabilities, primarily trade accounts payable, accrued compensation and other liabilities.
Had the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals taken place on January 1, 2010, unaudited pro forma net sales, net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 would have been $8.8 billion and $17.1 billion, $1.3 billion and $2.3 billion and $0.83 and $1.46, respectively. The pro forma information includes adjustments for amortization of intangible assets and fair value adjustments to acquisition-date inventory as well as acquisition and integration expenses. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.
In March 2010, Abbott acquired STARLIMS Technologies for approximately $100 million, in cash, net of cash held by STARLIMS, providing Abbott with leading products and expertise to build its position in laboratory informatics. A substantial portion of the fair value of the acquisition has been allocated to amortizable intangible assets and goodwill.

In April 2010, Abbott acquired the outstanding shares of Facet Biotech Corporation for approximately $430 million, in cash, net of cash held by Facet. The acquisition enhances Abbott’s early- and mid-stage pharmaceutical pipeline, including a biologic for multiple sclerosis and compounds that complement Abbott’s oncology program. A substantial portion of the fair value of the acquisition has been allocated to acquired in-process research and development that is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until regulatory approval or discontinuation.
On September 8, 2010, Abbott acquired Piramal Healthcare Limited’s Healthcare Solutions business, a leader in the Indian branded generics market, for $2.2 billion, in cash, plus additional payments of $400 million annually in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Abbott recorded a $1.6 billion liability for the present value of the additional payments at the acquisition date. The acquisition was financed with cash. The preliminary allocation of the fair value of the acquisition resulted in the recording of $2.7 billion of deductible acquired intangible assets and $1.0 billion of deductible goodwill. Acquired intangible assets consist primarily of trade names, customer relationships and associated rights and are amortized over an average of 19 years. The allocation of the fair value of the acquisition will be finalized when the valuation is completed.
In 2010, Abbott entered into an agreement to acquire licensing rights outside the U.S., excluding certain Asian markets, to a product in development for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. In the first and second quarters of 2011, certain milestones were achieved and charges to acquired in-process research and development of $100 million and $88 million were recorded. In addition, Abbott also acquired an equity interest of approximately $62 million in the second quarter of 2011.
In the second quarter of 2011, Abbott entered into an agreement to develop and commercialize a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis resulting in a charge to acquired in-process research and development of $85 million. In the second quarter of 2010, Abbott entered into an agreement to develop and commercialize a product for the treatment of endometriosis resulting in a charge to acquired in-process research and development of $75 million.
Note 10 — Financial Instruments, Derivatives and Fair Value Measures
Certain Abbott foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage exposures to changes in foreign exchange rates for anticipated intercompany purchases by those subsidiaries whose functional currencies are not the U.S. dollar. These contracts, totaling $692 million and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, are designated as cash flow hedges of the variability of the cash flows due to changes in foreign exchange rates and are recorded at fair value. Accumulated gains and losses as of June 30, 2011 will be included in Cost of products sold at the time the products are sold, generally through the next twelve months. The amount of hedge ineffectiveness was not significant in 2011 and 2010.
Abbott enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage currency exposures for foreign currency denominated third-party trade payables and receivables, and for intercompany loans and trade accounts payable where the receivable or payable is denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity. For intercompany loans, the contracts require Abbott to sell or buy foreign currencies, primarily European currencies and Japanese yen, in exchange for primarily U.S. dollars and other European currencies. For intercompany and trade payables and receivables, the currency exposures are primarily the U.S. dollar, European currencies and Japanese yen. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, Abbott held $14.6 billion and $10.8 billion, respectively, of such foreign currency forward exchange contracts.
Abbott has designated foreign denominated short-term debt as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign subsidiary of approximately $660 million and approximately $650 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of this debt due to changes in exchange rates are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.
Abbott is a party to interest rate swap contracts totaling $6.8 billion at June 30, 2011 and $7.3 billion at December 31, 2010 to manage its exposure to changes in the fair value of fixed-rate debt. These contracts are designated as fair value hedges of the variability of the fair value of fixed-rate debt due to changes in the long-term benchmark interest rates. The effect of the hedge is to change a fixed-rate interest obligation to a variable rate for that portion of the debt. Abbott records the contracts at fair value and adjusts the carrying amount of the fixed-rate debt by an offsetting amount. No hedge ineffectiveness was recorded in income in 2011 or 2010 for these hedges.

The interest rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges of the variability of the fair value of fixed-rate debt due to changes in the long-term benchmark interest rates. The hedged debt is marked to market, offsetting the effect of marking the interest rate swaps to market.
The carrying values and fair values of certain financial instruments as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are shown in the table below. The carrying values of all other financial instruments approximate their estimated fair values. The counterparties to financial instruments consist of select major international financial institutions. Abbott does not expect any losses from nonperformance by these counterparties.

The fair value of the debt was determined based on the face value of the debt adjusted for the fair value of the interest rate swaps, which is based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on an independent appraisal adjusted for the time value of money and exchange.
Note 11 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Abbott recorded goodwill of approximately $2.2 billion in the first six months of 2010 related to the acquisitions of Solvay Pharmaceuticals, STARLIMS Technologies and Facet Biotech. In addition, in the first quarter of 2010, Abbott paid $250 million to Boston Scientific as a result of the approval to market the Xience V drug-eluting stent in Japan, resulting in an increase in goodwill. Goodwill related to the Solvay Pharmaceuticals acquisition was allocated to the Proprietary Pharmaceuticals Products and Established Pharmaceutical Products segments and goodwill related to the Boston Scientific payment was allocated to the Vascular Products segment. Foreign currency translation adjustments and other adjustments increased goodwill in the first six months of 2011 by approximately $830 million and decreased goodwill in the first six months of 2010 by approximately $1.3 billion. The amount of goodwill related to pharmaceutical segments at June 30, 2011 was $10 billion and will be allocated to the Proprietary Products and Established Products segments using a relative fair value approach after additional analysis is completed. Goodwill was $208 million for the Nutritional Products segment, $382 million for the Diagnostic Products segment and $2.8 billion for the Vascular Products segment. There were no significant reductions of goodwill relating to impairments or disposal of all or a portion of a business.

June 30, 2011
(Unaudited), continued
The gross amount of amortizable intangible assets, primarily product rights and technology was $18.1 billion as of June 30, 2011 and $17.3 billion as of December 31, 2010, and accumulated amortization was $7.3 billion as of June 30, 2011 and $6.5 billion as of December 31, 2010. Indefinite-lived intangible assets, which relate to in-process research and development acquired in a business combination, was approximately $900 million and $1.4 billion at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. In the second quarter of 2011, Abbott recorded an impairment charge of $125 million for certain research and development intangible assets related to a non-reportable segment due to changes in the projected development and regulatory timeframes for the project. The charge was based on a discounted cash flow analysis and is included in research and development expenses. The estimated annual amortization expense for intangible assets is approximately $1.6 billion in 2011, $1.3 billion in 2012, $1.2 billion in 2013, $925 million in 2014 and $812 million in 2015. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized over 2 to 30 years (average 12 years).
Note 12 — Restructuring Plans
In 2011 and prior years, Abbott management approved plans to realign its worldwide pharmaceutical and vascular manufacturing operations and selected domestic and international commercial and research and development operations in order to reduce costs. In the first quarter of 2011, Abbott recorded $49 million to Cost of products sold, $18 million to Research and development and $49 million to Selling, general and administrative. Charges of $7 million and $3 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to these restructurings, primarily for accelerated depreciation and product transfer costs. The following summarizes the activity for these restructurings: (dollars in millions)

In the third quarter of 2010, Abbott management approved a restructuring plan primarily related to the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals. This plan streamlines operations, improves efficiencies and reduces costs in certain Solvay sites and functions as well as in certain Abbott and Solvay commercial organizations in various countries. Charges of approximately $65 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 relating to this restructuring, primarily for accelerated depreciation. Additional charges will occur through 2011 primarily related to additional employee-related and asset disposal costs.

In 2008, Abbott management approved a plan to streamline global manufacturing operations, reduce overall costs, and improve efficiencies in Abbott’s core diagnostic business. Charges of approximately $18 million and $29 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to this restructuring, primarily for accelerated depreciation and product transfer costs. Additional charges will occur through 2011 as a result of product re-registration timelines required under manufacturing regulations in a number of countries and product transition timelines.

The net sales growth for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 reflects unit growth, the acquisition of Piramal Healthcare Limited’s Healthcare Solution business in September 2010 and the effect of exchange. The net sales growth for the first six months of 2011 also reflects the acquisition of Solvay’s pharmaceuticals business in February 2010. Excluding 4.6 percent and 3.1 percent of favorable exchange for the second quarter and first six months of 2011, net sales increased 4.4 percent and 9.8 percent, respectively. The relatively weaker U.S. dollar increased second quarter 2011 Total International sales by 8.1 percent, increased Proprietary Pharmaceutical Products segment sales by 4.1 percent, increased Established Pharmaceutical Products segment sales by 7.1 percent, increased Nutritional Product segment sales by 2.8 percent, increased Diagnostic Products segment sales by 6.0 percent and increased Vascular Products segment sales by 4.4 percent over the second quarter of 2010. The relatively weaker U.S. dollar increased the first six months 2011 Total International sales by 5.3 percent, increased Proprietary Pharmaceutical Products segment sales by 2.4 percent, increased Established Pharmaceutical Products segment sales by 5.6 percent, increased Nutritional Product segment sales by 2.4 percent, increased Diagnostic Products segment sales by 3.6 percent and increased Vascular Products segment sales by 3.1 percent over the first six months of 2010. Sales growth in the Proprietary Pharmaceutical Products segment was impacted by the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals in February 2010. Sales growth in the Established Pharmaceutical Products segment and in Total International sales was impacted by the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals in February 2010 and Piramal Healthcare Limited’s Healthcare solutions business in September 2010.

The increase in U.S. Proprietary product sales in 2011 is due primarily to the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals in February 2010 and to increased sales of HUMIRA and Synthroid and was partially offset by decreased sales of Zemplar . Increased sales of HUMIRA favorably impacted International Proprietary products sales in 2011. Abbott forecasts growth in the high teens for worldwide HUMIRA sales in 2011. U.S. Pediatric Nutritional sales in 2011 were affected by the voluntary recall of certain Similac-brand powder infant formulas, primarily in the U.S. in September 2010. International Pediatric and Adult Nutritionals sales increased in 2011 due primarily to volume growth in developing countries. The relatively weaker U.S. dollar increased International Pediatric sales and International Adult Nutritional sales in 2011 by 4.1 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively.
The gross profit margin was 59.8 percent for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010. First six months 2011 gross profit margin was 58.6 percent compared to 58.4 percent for the first six months 2010. Gross profit margins in 2011 were favorably impacted by improved margins in the diagnostics businesses which was offset by additional rebates under health care reform, the carryover effect of 2010 pharmaceutical pricing actions by European governments, and an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates.
Research and development expenses increased 21.0 percent in the second quarter 2011 and 23.9 percent for the first six months 2011 over comparable 2010 periods. These increases reflect the acquisitions of Solvay Pharmaceuticals in February 2010 and Facet Biotech in April 2010 and the impairment of certain in-process research and development intangible assets. Excluding the impairment charge, research and development expenses increased 6.4 percent and 16.1 percent for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011. These increases also reflect continued pipeline spending, including programs in vascular devices, biologics, neuroscience, oncology and hepatitis C. The majority of research and development expenditures are concentrated on pharmaceutical products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter and first six months 2011 increased 0.7 percent and 14.4 percent, respectively, over the comparable 2010 periods. Excluding charges relating to acquisition integration and restructurings, selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter and first six months of 2011 decreased by 1.1 percent and increased 11.1 percent, respectively. The decrease for the second quarter was due, in part, to higher provisions for litigation reserves in the second quarter of 2010. The increases for the first six months, exclusive of the charges relating to acquisition integration and restructurings, reflect the acquisitions of Solvay Pharmaceuticals in February of 2010 and Piramal Healthcare in September of 2010 and the impact of the pharmaceutical fees associated with U.S. health care reform. 2011 also reflects increased selling and marketing support for new and existing products, including spending for HUMIRA and inflation.

Business Combinations and Technology Acquisitions
In February 2010, Abbott acquired Solvay’s pharmaceuticals business (Solvay Pharmaceuticals) for approximately $6.1 billion, in cash, plus additional payments of up to EUR 100 million per year if certain sales milestones are met in 2011, 2012 and 2013. Contingent consideration of approximately $290 million was recorded. The acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals provides Abbott with a large and complementary portfolio of pharmaceutical products and expands Abbott’s presence in key global emerging markets. Abbott acquired control of this business on February 15, 2010 and the financial results of the acquired operations are included in these financial statements beginning on that date. The acquisition was funded with cash and short-term investments. The allocation of the fair value of the acquisition is shown in the table below (in billions of dollars) .

Acquired intangible assets consist primarily of product rights for currently marketed products and are amortized over 2 to 14 years (average of 11 years). Acquired in-process research and development projects are accounted for as indefinite lived intangible assets until regulatory approval or discontinuation. The net tangible assets acquired consist primarily of trade accounts receivable of approximately $675 million, inventory of approximately $390 million, property and equipment of approximately $725 million, net of assumed liabilities, primarily trade accounts payable, accrued compensation and other liabilities.
Had the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals taken place on January 1, 2010, unaudited pro forma net sales, net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 would have been $8.8 billion and $17.1 billion, $1.3 billion and $2.3 billion and $0.83 and $1.46, respectively. The pro forma information includes adjustments for amortization of intangible assets and fair value adjustments to acquisition-date inventory as well as acquisition and integration expenses. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.
In March 2010, Abbott acquired STARLIMS Technologies for approximately $100 million, in cash, net of cash held by STARLIMS, providing Abbott with leading products and expertise to build its position in laboratory informatics. A substantial portion of the fair value of the acquisition has been allocated to amortizable intangible assets and goodwill.
In April 2010, Abbott acquired the outstanding shares of Facet Biotech Corporation for approximately $430 million, in cash, net of cash held by Facet. The acquisition enhances Abbott’s early- and mid-stage pharmaceutical pipeline, including a biologic for multiple sclerosis and compounds that complement Abbott’s oncology program. A substantial portion of the fair value of the acquisition has been allocated to acquired in-process research and development that is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until regulatory approval or discontinuation.
On September 8, 2010, Abbott acquired Piramal Healthcare Limited’s Healthcare Solutions business, a leader in the Indian branded generics market, for $2.2 billion, in cash, plus additional payments of $400 million annually in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Abbott recorded a $1.6 billion liability for the present value of the additional payments at the acquisition date. The acquisition was financed with cash. The preliminary allocation of the fair value of the acquisition resulted in the recording of $2.7 billion of deductible acquired intangible assets and $1.0 billion of deductible goodwill. Acquired intangible assets consist primarily of trade names, customer relationships and associated rights and are amortized over an average of 19 years. The allocation of the fair value of the acquisition will be finalized when the valuation is completed.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
(continued)
In 2010, Abbott entered into an agreement to acquire licensing rights outside the U.S., excluding certain Asian markets, to a product in development for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. In the first and second quarters of 2011, certain milestones were achieved and charges to acquired in-process research and development of $100 million and $88 million were recorded. In addition, Abbott also acquired an equity interest of approximately $62 million in the second quarter of 2011.
In the second quarter of 2011, Abbott entered into an agreement to develop and commercialize a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis resulting in a charge to acquired in-process research and development of $85 million. In the second quarter of 2010, Abbott entered into an agreement to develop and commercialize a product for the treatment of endometriosis resulting in a charge to acquired in-process research and development of $75 million.
Restructuring Plans
In 2011 and prior years, Abbott management approved plans to realign its worldwide pharmaceutical and vascular manufacturing operations and selected domestic and international commercial and research and development operations in order to reduce costs. In the first quarter of 2011, Abbott recorded $49 million to Cost of products sold, $18 million to Research and development and $49 million to Selling, general and administrative. Charges of $7 million and $3 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to these restructurings, primarily for accelerated depreciation and product transfer costs. The following summarizes the activity for these restructurings: (dollars in millions)

In the third quarter of 2010, Abbott management approved a restructuring plan primarily related to the acquisition of Solvay Pharmaceuticals. This plan streamlines operations, improves efficiencies and reduces costs in certain Solvay sites and functions as well as in certain Abbott and Solvay commercial organizations in various countries. Charges of approximately $65 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 relating to this restructuring, primarily for accelerated depreciation. Additional charges will occur through 2011 primarily related to additional employee-related and asset disposal costs.

In 2008, Abbott management approved a plan to streamline global manufacturing operations, reduce overall costs, and improve efficiencies in Abbott’s core diagnostic business. Charges of approximately $18 million and $29 million were recorded in the first six months of 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to this restructuring, primarily for accelerated depreciation and product transfer costs. Additional charges will occur through 2011 as a result of product re-registration timelines required under manufacturing regulations in a number of countries and product transition timelines.

Interest Expense (Income)
Interest expense increased in the first six months 2011 compared to 2010 due to a higher level of borrowings. Interest income decreased in the second quarter and first six months 2011 compared to 2010 primarily as a result of lower interest rates.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
(continued)
Change in Accounting Principle, Other (income) expense, net and Net foreign exchange loss (gain)
Prior to January 1, 2011, the accounts of foreign subsidiaries were consolidated based on a fiscal year ended November 30 due to the time needed to consolidate these subsidiaries. Effective January 1, 2011, the one month lag in the consolidation of the accounts of foreign subsidiaries was eliminated and the year-end of foreign subsidiaries was changed to December 31. Abbott believes that the change in accounting principle related to the elimination of the one month reporting lag is preferable because it will result in more contemporaneous reporting of the results of foreign subsidiaries. In accordance with applicable accounting literature, a change in subsidiaries’ year-end is treated as a change in accounting principle and requires retrospective application. The cumulative effect of the change was an increase in retained earnings of $289 million as of January 1, 2009 and a corresponding decrease in other long-term liabilities. The impact of the change was not material to the results of operations for the previously reported annual and interim periods after January 1, 2009, and thus, those results have not been revised. A charge of $137 million was recorded to Other (income) expense, net in the three months ended March 31, 2011 to recognize the cumulative immaterial impacts to 2009 and 2010. Had the financial statements been revised, net sales, operating earnings and net earnings in calendar 2009 would have increased by $211 million, $36 million and $38 million, respectively, and net sales, operating earnings and net earnings in calendar 2010 would have decreased by $21 million, $195 million and $175 million, respectively. In addition, net sales and net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2010 would have decreased by $174 million and $3 million, respectively, and operating earnings would have increased by $5 million and net sales, operating earnings and net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2010 would have increased by $94 million, $38 million and $35 million, respectively.
Net foreign exchange loss (gain) for the first six months of 2010 includes a charge of approximately $86 million for the impact of the devaluation of the bolivar currency in Venezuela on balance sheet translation.
Taxes on Earnings
Taxes on earnings reflect the estimated annual effective rates and include charges for interest and penalties. The effective tax rates are less than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate principally due to the benefit of lower statutory tax rates and tax exemptions in several foreign taxing jurisdictions. In the second quarter of 2011, the change in the effective tax rate reflects the recognition of $519 million of tax benefits as a result of the favorable resolution of various tax positions pertaining to prior years, which also decreased the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $1.2 billion. Abbott believes that it is reasonably possible that the recorded amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $500 million, including cash adjustments, within the next twelve months as a result of concluding various tax matters.
As a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act which were signed into law in the first quarter of 2010, Abbott recorded a charge of approximately $60 million in the first quarter 2010 to reduce deferred tax assets associated with retiree health care liabilities related to the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy.
Liquidity and Capital Resources June 30, 2011 Compared with December 31, 2010
Net cash from operating activities for the first six months 2011 totaled approximately $4.5 billion. Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2011 and 2010 includes the effects of contributions to defined benefit plans of $320 million and $490 million, respectively, and to the post-employment medical and dental benefit plans of $40 million and $66 million, respectively. In addition, Other, net in Net cash from operating activities for 2011 includes the non-cash impact of the $519 million of tax benefits recorded in the second quarter of 2011 related to the favorable resolution of various tax positions pertaining to prior years.
As discussed in previous filings and Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the United States Department of Justice, through the Unites States Attorney for the Western District of Virginia, is investigating Abbott’s sales and marketing activities for Depakote . The government is seeking to determine whether any of these activities violated civil and/or criminal laws, including the Federal False Claims Act, the Food and Drug Cosmetic Act, and the anti-Kickback Statute in connection with Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement to third parties. Discussions are ongoing in an effort to resolve potential civil and criminal claims arising from this matter. Abbott is unable to predict the outcome of this matter or to estimate the range or amount of possible loss and no loss reserves have been recorded for this exposure. The resolution of this matter in any reporting period could have a material impact on Abbott’s cash flows for that period.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
(continued)
Working capital was $8.3 billion at June 30, 2011 and $5.1 billion at December 31, 2010.
At June 30, 2011 Abbott’s long-term debt rating was AA by Standard & Poor’s Corporation and A1 by Moody’s Investors Service. Abbott has readily available financial resources, including unused lines of credit of $6.7 billion that support commercial paper borrowing arrangements of which a $3.0 billion facility expires in October 2012 and a $3.7 billion facility expires in 2013.
Under a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in February 2009, Abbott issued $3.0 billion of long-term debt in the second quarter of 2010 that matures in 2015, 2020 and 2040 with interest rates of 2.7 percent, 4.125 percent and 5.3 percent, respectively. Proceeds from this debt were used to pay down short-term borrowings. In addition, Abbott repaid $1.5 billion and $500 million of long-term notes that were due in May and March of 2011 using primarily short-term borrowings.
In October 2008, the board of directors authorized the purchase of up to $5 billion of Abbott’s common shares from time to time and no shares were purchased under this authorization in the first six months of 2011. In the first six months of 2010, 14.8 million shares were purchased under this authorization at a cost of approximately $800 million.
Legislative Issues
In the first quarter 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively referred to herein as “health care reform legislation”) were signed into law in the U.S. Health care reform legislation includes an increase in the basic Medicaid rebate rate from 15.1% to 23.1% and extends the rebate to drugs provided through Medicaid managed care organizations. As a result, Abbott recorded an additional provision of approximately $60 million against gross sales in the first quarter 2010 for the impact of the rebate charges on first quarter sales as well as other products in the distribution channel. In 2011, Abbott also began incurring additional rebates related to the Medicare Part D coverage gap “donut hole.” These rebate changes will continue to have a negative effect on the gross profit margin of the Proprietary Pharmaceutical Products segment in future quarters.
Beginning in 2013, health care reform legislation will eliminate the federal income tax deduction for prescription drug expenses of retirees for which Abbott receives reimbursement under the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy program. As a result, Abbott recorded a charge of approximately $60 million in the first quarter 2010 to reduce deferred tax assets associated with retiree health care liabilities.
In 2011, Abbott began recording the annual fee imposed by health care reform legislation on companies that sell branded prescription drugs to specified government programs. The amount of the annual fee is based on the ratio of certain of Abbott’s sales as compared to the total such sales of all covered entities multiplied by a fixed dollar amount specified in the legislation by year. Beginning in 2013, Abbott will record the 2.3% excise tax imposed by health care reform legislation on the sale of certain medical devices.
Abbott’s primary markets are highly competitive and subject to substantial government regulations throughout the world. Abbott expects debate to continue over the availability, method of delivery, and payment for health care products and services. It is not possible to predict the extent to which Abbott or the health care industry in general might be adversely affected by these factors in the future. A more complete discussion of these factors is contained in Item 1, Business, and Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 — A Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
Under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Abbott cautions investors that any forward-looking statements or projections made by Abbott, including those made in this document, are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that may affect Abbott’s operations are discussed in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Chief Executive Officer, Miles D. White, and Chief Financial Officer, Thomas C. Freyman, evaluated the effectiveness of Abbott Laboratories’ disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, and concluded that Abbott Laboratories’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information Abbott is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Abbott in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to Abbott’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, there were no changes in Abbott’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Abbott’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Abbott is involved in various claims, legal proceedings and investigations, including (as of June 30, 2011) those described below. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of such pending claims, proceedings and investigations with certainty, management is of the opinion that their ultimate resolution should not have a material adverse effect on Abbott’s financial position, cash flows, or results of operations, except for the investigation discussed in the third paragraph of Note 4 to Abbott’s financial statements, the resolution of which could be material to cash flows or the results of operations in a given year.
In its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, Abbott reported that a case is pending against Abbott in which New York University (NYU) and Centocor, Inc. assert that adalimumab (a drug Abbott sells under the trademark Humira®) infringes a patent co-owned by NYU and Centocor and exclusively licensed to Centocor and that the Federal Circuit found Centocor’s patent invalid. In June 2011, the Federal Circuit denied Centocor’s petition to rehear and reconsider the decision.
In its 2010 Form 10-K, Abbott reported that lawsuits are pending against Abbott in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in which Bayer HealthCare LLC (Bayer) asserts that Humira® infringes a patent owned by Bayer. Abbott also reported that
infringement lawsuits are pending against Abbott in the District Court of The Hague, The Netherlands and in the Regional Court in Dusseldorf, Germany, in which Bayer asserts that Humira® infringes Bayer’s European patent, and that Abbott has filed an action in the German Federal Patent Court asking that Bayer’s patent be revoked. During the second quarter of 2011, all these cases were settled, and the United States and German lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice.
In its 2010 Form 10-K, Abbott reported that several lawsuits filed against Unimed Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (a company Abbott acquired in February 2010) et al. have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia under the Multi District Litigation Rules as In re AndroGel Antitrust Litigation , MDL No. 2084. An additional purported class action, Health Net, Inc. v. Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. et al. , has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia seeking the same remedies as the other purported class actions.
In its 2010 Form 10-K, Abbott reported that litigation is pending in the Regional Court in Dusseldorf, Germany in which Medinol Limited (Medinol) asserts that certain Abbott stents infringe various Medinol stent design patents and seeks damages and injunctions. In June 2011, Medinol added a related patent to this case seeking the same remedies. Abbott denies all substantive allegations with respect to this new patent.
In its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, Abbott reported that in March 2011 the High Court of Ireland found that Abbott’s Vision, Xience V, Multi-Link 8 and Xience Prime stents do not infringe one of Medinol’s European stent design patents. In May 2011, the High Court found that Medinol’s asserted patent is invalid.
In its 2010 Form 10-K, Abbott reported that lawsuits were pending in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in which Abbott and the patent owner, Laboratoires Fournier, S.A. (Fournier), alleged infringement of three patents relating to fenofibrate tablets (a drug Abbott sells under the trademark Tricor®) and sought injunctive relief against Impax Laboratories and Teva Pharmaceuticals USA Inc. (Teva). Abbott also reported that several other lawsuits were pending in that court involving its subsidiary, Fournier Laboratories Ireland Ltd. (Fournier Ireland) in which Fournier Ireland and joint patent owner Elan Pharma International Ltd. (Elan), alleged infringement of two jointly-owned patents and one Elan patent relating to fenofibrate tablets and sought injunctive relief against Impax and Teva. During the second quarter of 2011, these cases were settled and dismissed with prejudice.
In its 2010 Form 10-K, Abbott reported that a lawsuit is pending in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in which Abbott alleges infringement of its patents relating to niacin extended release tablets (a drug Abbott sells under the trademark Niaspan®) and seeks declarative and injunctive relief against Lupin Pharmaceuticals and Lupin Limited. During the second quarter of 2011, this case was settled and dismissed with prejudice.
Abbott is seeking to enforce its patent rights relating to testosterone gel product (a drug Abbott sells under the trademark AndroGel®). In a case filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in April 2011, Abbott alleges that Teva Pharmaceuticals USA’s
(Teva) proposed generic product infringes Abbott’s patent and seeks declaratory and injunctive relief. Teva has asserted various counterclaims, including monopolization claims.
