Results under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) include items as detailed in the schedules attached to this press release.

Net sales were $966 million in the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of 4 percent compared to the first quarter of 2011. The decrease is due primarily to a difficult year-over-year comparison related to the first-quarter 2011 U.S. launch of the generic oncolytic docetaxel, as well as the adverse impact to supply of the company's quality-improvement and remediation initiatives.

Adjusted* income from operations decreased 49 percent to $104 million in the first quarter of 2012, compared to $203 million in the first quarter of 2011. The majority of the decline reflects the decrease in net sales as well as the impact of costs associated with certain quality actions and inventory losses. Operating costs also increased in the first quarter of 2012 due to expected higher research and development spending, as well as higher selling and promotional costs.

The effective tax rate on an adjusted basis* in the quarter was 19.0 percent compared to 23.0 percent in the first quarter of 2011. The decrease is primarily due to lower operating income in higher-tax-rate jurisdictions.

Cash Flow

Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of 2012 was $87 million compared to $6 million in the first quarter of 2011. The increase is a result of lower investments in working capital, offset by lower net income in the first quarter of 2012.

Capital expenditures were $67 million for the first quarter of 2012, compared to $62 million for the same period in 2011. The increase was mainly due to the company's manufacturing capacity expansion initiatives in Vizag, India.

2012 Projections

Hospira is maintaining guidance for net sales for full-year 2012, projecting a net sales change in a range of negative 1 percent to positive 2 percent on a constant-currency basis, with foreign exchange expected to detract from results by a negative 1 percent.

Adjusted* diluted earnings per share projections for full-year 2012 remain in a range of $2.00 to $2.30.

The reconciliation between the projected 2012 adjusted* diluted earnings per share and GAAP diluted earnings per share follows:


    Diluted earnings per share --
     adjusted*                           $2.00 - $2.30

     (mid-point of an
    estimated range of $0.28 to $0.32

    (mid-point of an estimated range of
     $0.09 to $0.11                             ------

    Diluted earnings per share -- GAAP   $1.04 - $1.34
                                         =============

The adjusting items are shown net of tax in aggregate of $86 million, which is calculated for the specified adjustments stated above, based on the statutory tax rates in the various tax jurisdictions in which the items are expected to occur.

The company continues to project that cash flow from operations in 2012 will be between $575 million and $625 million. Depreciation and amortization is expected to be between $240 million and $260 million, and capital expenditures are projected to range between $350 million and $400 million.

        The Non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release include comparisons at constant currency
        rates, which reflect comparative local currency balances at prior period foreign exchange rates. Hospira
        calculated these percentages by taking current period reported net sales less the respective prior period
        reported net sales, divided by the prior period reported net sales, all at the respective prior period's
        foreign exchange rates. This measure provides information on the change in net sales assuming that foreign
        currency exchange rates have not changed between the prior and the current period. Management believes the
        use of this measure aids in the understanding of our change in net sales without the impact of foreign
        currency and provides greater transparency into Hospira's results of operations. Management uses these
        measures internally to monitor business unit performance and in evaluating management performance. These
        measures are intended to supplement the applicable GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation
    (1) from or a replacement for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
