Pfizer to Hold Conference Call With Analysts to Review Reclassified Quarterly 2005 and 2006 Consolidated Statements of Income Reflecting Consumer Healthcare Business As Discontinued Operation

    NEW YORK, July 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- In advance of the release
of its Second Quarter 2006 Business Performance Report on July 20, Pfizer
Inc will hold a conference call at 4 p.m. EDT today to review reclassified
historical financial information reflecting Pfizer's Consumer Healthcare
business as a Discontinued Operation. Pfizer invites investors and the
general public to listen to a webcast of the conference call.
    During today's conference call, led by Pfizer's financial leadership,
analysts will have the opportunity to discuss the attached financial
statements and schedules: 1) quarterly 2005 and First Quarter 2006
Consolidated Statements of Income and 2) quarterly 2005 and First Quarter
2006 Reconciliations from Reported Net Income and Reported Diluted Earnings
Per Share to Adjusted Income(1) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share(1)
for Pfizer Inc, both reflecting the reclassification of Pfizer's Consumer
Healthcare (PCH) business as a Discontinued Operation.
    On June 26, 2006, Pfizer announced that it had reached an agreement to
sell its Consumer Healthcare business to Johnson & Johnson for
approximately $16.6 billion. The transaction is expected to close by the
end of 2006. The Company is now required to reflect its Consumer Healthcare
business as a discontinued operation under generally accepted accounting
principles. The reclassified financial statements and schedules reflect no
change in Reported Net Income and Reported Diluted Earnings Per Share
compared to previous disclosures. Rather, the financial results of PCH
previously required to be reflected in various line items on the
Consolidated Statement of Income (adjusted to reflect the business as
defined by the sale agreement) are now captured on a single line --
Discontinued Operations. The conference call is intended solely to assist
analysts in modeling Pfizer's financial performance on this new basis in
advance of the Company's release of its second quarter 2006 earnings on
July 20. Pfizer management will host a conference call on July 20 at 10:30
a.m. EDT to respond to investor queries with respect to its financial
results for the second quarter.
    To listen to today's webcast, analysts, investors, and the general
public should visit the Pfizer web site homepage at http://www.pfizer.com
and click on the "Pfizer Consumer Healthcare P&L Reclassification Webcast"
link.
    Information about accessing, and pre-registering for, the webcast will
be available at http://www.pfizer.com later today. Participants are advised
to pre-register in advance of the conference call.
    Visitors to http://www.pfizer.com will be able to listen to an archived
copy of the webcast of the conference call through 12 Noon, Monday, July
24.
    (1) "Adjusted income" and "adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS)" are
        defined as reported net income and reported diluted EPS excluding
        purchase-accounting adjustments, merger-related costs, discontinued
        operations, and certain significant items.  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 quarterly period ended April 2, 2006, 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.  Reconciliations of first quarter 2006 and quarterly
        2005 adjusted income and adjusted diluted EPS to reported net income
        and reported diluted EPS are provided in the materials accompanying
        this report.  The adjusted income and adjusted diluted EPS measures
        are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net
        income and diluted EPS.
