As a result of the enactment of the TCJA in December 2017, Pfizer’s Provision for taxes on income for (i) the six months ended June 30, 2019 was favorably impacted by approximately $285 million, primarily as a result of additional guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury and (ii) the six months ended July 1, 2018 was favorably impacted by approximately $68 million, primarily related to certain tax initiatives associated with the lower U.S. tax rate as a result of the TCJA.

A. Basis of Presentation

See the Glossary of Defined Terms at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for terms used throughout the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements following the requirements of the SEC for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted.

The financial information included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for subsidiaries operating outside the U.S. is as of and for the three and six months ended May 26, 2019 and May 27, 2018. The financial information included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for U.S. subsidiaries is as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018.

Revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year.

We are responsible for the unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The interim financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 2018 Financial Report.

At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of three business segments––Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group (Biopharma), Upjohn and through July 31, 2019, Consumer Healthcare. Biopharma and Upjohn are the only reportable segments. We have revised prior-period segment information to reflect the reorganization. For additional information, see Note 13.

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and associated notes may not add due to rounding. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts.

In the first quarter of 2019, as of January 1, 2019, we adopted four new accounting standards. See Note 1B for further information.

Our recent significant business development activities include:

•

Acquisition of Array BioPharma Inc.––On July 30, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we acquired Array, a commercial stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted small molecule medicines to treat cancer and other diseases of high unmet need, for $48 per share in cash, for a total enterprise value of approximately $11.4 billion. We financed the majority of the transaction with debt and the balance with existing cash.

•

Agreement to Combine Upjohn with Mylan––On July 29, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, creating a new global pharmaceutical company. Under the terms of the agreement, which is structured as an all-stock, Reverse Morris Trust transaction, Upjohn is expected to be spun off or split off to Pfizer’s shareholders and simultaneously combined with Mylan. Pfizer shareholders would own 57% of the combined new company, and Mylan shareholders would own 43%. The transaction is expected to be tax free to Pfizer and Pfizer shareholders. The transaction is anticipated to close in mid-2020, subject to Mylan shareholder approval and customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

•

Acquisition of Therachon Holding AG––On July 1, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we acquired all the remaining shares of Therachon, a privately-held clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on rare diseases, with assets in development for the treatment of achondroplasia, a genetic condition and the most common form of short-limb dwarfism, for $340 million upfront, plus potential milestone payments of up to $470 million, contingent on the achievement of key milestones in the development and commercialization of the lead asset TA-46. In 2018, Pfizer acquired 3% of Therachon’s outstanding shares.

Acquisitions, Divestitures, Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale, Licensing Arrangements, Research and Development and Collaborative Arrangements, Equity-Method Investments and Privately Held Investment in Pfizer’s 2018 Financial Report.

B. Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2019, we adopted four new accounting standards.

Leases––On January 1, 2019, we adopted a new accounting standard for leases and changed our lease policies accordingly. Under the new standard, the most significant change is the requirement of balance sheet recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. We adopted the new accounting standard utilizing the modified retrospective method using a simplified transition approach, and, therefore, no adjustments were made to our prior period financial statements. We have elected the package of practical expedients for transition which are permitted in the new standard. Accordingly, we did not reassess whether (i) any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases under the new standard, (ii) classification of leases as operating leases or capital leases would be different under the new standard, or (iii) any initial direct costs would have met the definition of initial direct costs under the new standard. Additionally, we did not elect to use hindsight in determining the lease term for existing leases as of January 1, 2019. We recorded noncurrent ROU assets of $1.4 billion and current and noncurrent operating lease liabilities of $1.4 billion as of January 1, 2019. We also recorded the cumulative effect of adopting the standard as an adjustment to increase the opening balance of Retained earnings by $30 million on a pre-tax basis ($20 million after-tax), relating to previously deferred sale-leaseback gains that can be recognized under the new rules.



Adopting the standard related to leases impacted our prior period condensed consolidated balance sheet as follows:
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	As Previously Reported Balance at December 31, 2018		Effect of Change Higher/(Lower)			Balance at January 1, 2019
Other current assets	$	2,461	$	(1	)	$	2,460
Noncurrent deferred tax assets and other noncurrent tax assets	1,924		(11		)	1,913
Other noncurrent assets	2,799		1,351			4,149
Other current liabilities	10,753		258			11,011
Other noncurrent liabilities	5,850		1,060			6,910
Retained earnings	89,554		20			89,574

Adoption of the standard related to leases did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income or condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019. For additional information, see Note 1D.

Amortization Period for Certain Callable Debt Securities Held at a Premium––We prospectively adopted the standard, which shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The new guidance requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. We do not have any investments with features subject to this standard and, therefore, there was no impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this new standard.

Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Liabilities and Equity and Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features––We prospectively adopted the standard, which changes the accounting for warrants or convertible instruments that include a down round feature. We do not have any financial instruments with features subject to this standard and, therefore, there was no impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this new standard.

Accounting for Share-Based Payments to Nonemployees––We prospectively adopted the standard, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. Under the guidance, the measurement of equity-classified nonemployee awards will be

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

fixed at the grant date. We do not have any share-based awards issued to nonemployees and, therefore, there was no impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements from the adoption of this new standard.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted eleven new accounting standards. For additional information, see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 1B. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Adoption of New Accounting Standards in 2018 included in our 2018 Financial Report.

C. Revenues and Trade Accounts Receivable

Our accruals for Medicare rebates, Medicaid and related state program rebates, performance-based contract rebates, chargebacks, sales allowances and sales returns and cash discounts totaled $5.6 billion as of June 30, 2019 and $5.4 billion as of December 31, 2018.



The following table provides information about the balance sheet classification of these accruals:
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Reserve against Trade accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts	$	1,226	$	1,288

Accrued rebates	3,256		3,208
Other accruals	620		531
Other noncurrent liabilities	472		399
Total accrued rebates and other accruals	$	5,574	$	5,426

D. Leases

On January 1, 2019, we adopted a new accounting standard for leases. For further information, see Note 1B.

We lease real estate, fleet, and equipment for use in our operations. Our leases generally have lease terms of 1 to 30 years, some of which include options to terminate or extend leases for up to 5 to 10 years or on a month-to-month basis. We include options that are reasonably certain to be exercised as part of the determination of lease terms. We may negotiate termination clauses in anticipation of any changes in market conditions, but generally these termination options are not exercised. Residual value guarantees are generally not included within our operating leases with the exception of some fleet leases. In addition to base rent payments, the leases may require us to pay directly for taxes and other non-lease components, such as insurance, maintenance and other operating expenses, which may be dependent on usage or vary month-to-month. Variable lease payments amounted to $59 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and $118 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We have elected the practical expedient in the new standard to not separate non-lease components from lease components in calculating the amounts of ROU assets and lease liabilities for all underlying asset classes.

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract in accordance with guidance detailed in the new standard and we perform the lease classification test as of the lease commencement date. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments.



For operating leases, the ROU assets and liabilities are presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as follows:
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	Balance Sheet Classification	Balance at June 30, 2019
ROU assets	Other noncurrent assets	$	1,273
Lease liabilities (short-term)	Other current liabilities	263
Lease liabilities (long-term)	Other noncurrent liabilities	1,026

In April 2018, we entered an agreement to lease space in an office building in New York City. We expect to take control of the property in 2021 and relocate our global headquarters to this new office building in 2022. Our future minimum rental commitment under this 20-year lease is approximately $1.7 billion.

Prior to our adoption of the new lease standard, rental expense, net of sublease income, was $301 million in 2018, $314 million in 2017 and $292 million in 2016.



As of December 31, 2018, the future minimum rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases follow:

Note 2. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

On July 31, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we closed the transaction in which we and GSK combined our respective consumer healthcare businesses into a new consumer healthcare joint venture that operates globally under the GSK Consumer Healthcare name. In exchange for contributing our Consumer Healthcare business, we received a 32% equity stake in the new company and GSK owns the remaining 68%. Upon the closing of the transaction, we deconsolidated our

Consumer Healthcare business and expect to recognize a gain in our fiscal third quarter of 2019 for the difference in the fair value of our 32% equity stake in the new company and the carrying value of our Consumer Healthcare business. We will account for our 32% equity stake in the new company as an equity-method investment. Assets and liabilities associated with our Consumer Healthcare business were reclassified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Consumer Healthcare business assets held for sale are reported in Assets held for sale and Consumer Healthcare business liabilities held for sale are reported in Liabilities held for sale. This includes the Consumer Healthcare business tax assets and liabilities related to fully dedicated consumer healthcare subsidiaries.



The amounts associated with the Consumer Healthcare business, as well as other assets classified as held for sale consisted of the following:

Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives

We incur significant costs in connection with acquiring, integrating and restructuring businesses and in connection with our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives. For example:

•

In connection with acquisition activity, we typically incur costs associated with executing the transactions, integrating the acquired operations (which may include expenditures for consulting and the integration of systems and processes), and restructuring the combined company (which may include charges related to employees, assets and activities that will not continue in the combined company); and


•	In connection with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, we typically incur costs and charges associated with site closings and other facility rationalization actions, workforce reductions and the expansion of shared services, including the development of global systems.

All of our businesses and functions may be impacted by these actions, including sales and marketing, manufacturing and R&D, as well as groups such as information technology, shared services and corporate operations.

2017-2019 Initiatives and Organizing for Growth

During 2018, as we reviewed our business opportunities and challenges and the way in which we think about our business operations, we determined that at the start of our 2019 fiscal year, we would begin operating under our new commercial structure, which reorganized our operations into three businesses––Biopharma, a science-based innovative medicines business; Upjohn, a global, primarily off-patent branded and generic established medicines business; and through July 31, 2019, a Consumer Healthcare business (see Note 13). To operate effectively in this structure and position ourselves for future growth, we are focused on creating a simpler, more efficient operating structure within each business as well as the functions that support them. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, we reviewed previously planned initiatives and new initiatives to ensure that there was alignment around our new structure and combined the 2017-2019 initiatives with our current Organizing for Growth initiatives to form one cohesive plan. Initiatives for the combined program include activities related to the optimization of our manufacturing plant network, the centralization of our corporate and platform functions, and the simplification and optimization of our operating business structure and functions that support them. From 2017 through June 30, 2019, we incurred approximately $774 million associated with manufacturing optimization, and approximately $871 million associated with other activities.

In 2019, we expect restructuring, implementation and additional depreciation charges of about $600 million and, of that amount, we expect approximately 20% of the total charges will be non-cash.

Current-Period Key Activities

For the first six months of 2019, we incurred costs of $32 million composed of $180 million associated with the 2017-2019 and Organizing for Growth initiatives, $51 million associated with the integration of Hospira and income of $199 million primarily due to the reversal of certain accruals upon the effective favorable settlement of a U.S. IRS audit for multiple tax years and other acquisition-related initiatives.

In the second quarter and first six months of 2019, restructuring credits mostly represent the reversal of certain accruals related to our acquisition of Wyeth upon the effective favorable settlement of a U.S. IRS audit for multiple tax years (see Note 5B). In the three and six months ended July 1, 2018, restructuring credits were associated with cost-reduction and productivity initiatives not associated with acquisitions, as well as acquisition-related costs, primarily associated with Hospira.

Interest expense increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, mainly as a result of higher short-term interest rates, as well as the retirement of lower-coupon debt and the issuance of new debt with a higher coupon than the debt outstanding for the comparative prior year periods.


^(b)	The increase in royalty-related income for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 is primarily due to a one-time favorable resolution in the second quarter of 2019 of a legal dispute for $82 million.


^(c)	The second quarter of 2018 included gains of $142 million and the first six months of 2018 included gains of $203 million related to our investment in ICU Medical stock. For additional information, see Note 7B.

^(b)

Reflects intangible assets written down to fair value in the first six months of 2019. Fair value was determined using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method, also known as the discounted cash flow method. We started with a forecast of all the expected net cash flows associated with the asset and then applied an asset-specific discount rate to arrive at a net present value amount. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions inherent in this approach include: the amount and timing of the projected net cash flows, which includes the expected impact of competitive, legal and/or regulatory forces on the product; the discount rate, which seeks to reflect the various risks inherent in the projected cash flows; and the tax rate, which seeks to incorporate the geographic diversity of the projected cash flows.

Note 5. Tax Matters

A. Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations

During the second quarter of 2019, Pfizer reached settlement of disputed issues at the IRS Office of Appeals, thereby settling all issues related to U.S. tax returns of Pfizer for the years 2009-2010. As a result of settling these years, in the second quarter of 2019 we recorded a benefit of approximately $1.4 billion, representing tax and interest.

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was (22.1)% for the second quarter of 2019, compared to 14.3% for the second quarter of 2018 and was (5.7)% for the first six months of 2019, compared to 13.9% for the first six months of 2018.

The lower effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 in comparison with the same periods in 2018 was primarily due to:


•	an increase in tax benefits associated with the resolution of certain tax positions pertaining to prior years, primarily resulting from the aforementioned favorable settlement with the IRS;

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)


•	the tax benefit recorded as a result of additional guidance issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury related to the enactment of the TCJA, as well as


•	the favorable change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business.

Our estimated $15 billion repatriation tax liability on accumulated post-1986 foreign earnings for which we plan to elect, with the filing of our 2018 U.S. Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return, payment over eight years through 2026 is reported in Income taxes payable (approximately $750 million) and the remaining liability is reported in Other taxes payable in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. The first installment of $750 million was paid in April 2019. Our obligations may vary as a result of changes in our uncertain tax positions and/or availability of attributes such as foreign tax and other credit carryforwards.

B. Tax Contingencies

We are subject to income tax in many jurisdictions, and a certain degree of estimation is required in recording the assets and liabilities related to income taxes. All of our tax positions are subject to audit by the local taxing authorities in each tax jurisdiction. These tax audits can involve complex issues, interpretations and judgments and the resolution of matters may span multiple years, particularly if subject to negotiation or litigation. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but our estimates of unrecognized tax benefits and potential tax benefits may not be representative of actual outcomes, and variation from such estimates could materially affect our financial statements in the period of settlement or when the statutes of limitations expire, as we treat these events as discrete items in the period of resolution.

The U.S. is one of our major tax jurisdictions, and we are regularly audited by the IRS:


•	During the second quarter of 2019, Pfizer reached settlement of disputed issues at the IRS Office of Appeals, thereby settling all issues related to U.S. tax returns of Pfizer for the years 2009-2010. As a result of settling these years, in the second quarter of 2019 we recorded a benefit of approximately $1.4 billion, representing tax and interest.


•	With respect to Pfizer, tax years 2011-2015 are currently under audit. Tax years 2016-2019 are open, but not under audit. All other tax years are closed.

In addition to the open audit years in the U.S., we have open audit years in other major tax jurisdictions, such as Canada (2013-2019), Japan (2017-2019), Europe (2011-2019, primarily reflecting Ireland, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain and Germany), Latin America (1998-2019, primarily reflecting Brazil) and Puerto Rico (2014-2019).

E. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Foreign Exchange Risk

A significant portion of our revenues, earnings and net investments in foreign affiliates is exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We manage our foreign exchange risk, in part, through operational means, including managing same-currency revenues in relation to same-currency costs and same-currency assets in relation to same-currency liabilities. We also manage our foreign exchange risk, depending on market conditions, through fair value, cash flow, and net investment hedging programs through the use of derivative financial instruments and foreign currency debt. These financial instruments serve to protect net income against the impact of remeasurement into another currency, or against the impact of translation into U.S. dollars of certain foreign exchange-denominated transactions.

The derivative financial instruments primarily hedge or offset exposures in the euro, Japanese yen, U.K. pound, Chinese renminbi and Swedish krona.

As a part of our cash flow hedging program, we designate foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of our forecasted euro, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, Canadian dollar, U.K. pound and Australian dollar-denominated intercompany inventory sales expected to occur no more than two years from the date of each hedge.

Interest Rate Risk

Our interest-bearing investments and borrowings are subject to interest rate risk. With respect to our investments, we strive to maintain a predominantly floating-rate basis position, but our strategy may change based on prevailing market conditions. We currently borrow primarily on a long-term, fixed rate basis. From time to time, depending on market conditions, we will change the profile of our outstanding debt by entering into derivative financial instruments like interest rate swaps. We entered into derivative financial instruments to hedge or offset the fixed interest rates on the hedged item, matching the amount and timing of the hedged item. The derivative financial instruments primarily hedge U.S. dollar fixed-rate debt.



The following table provides the fair value of the derivative financial instruments and the related notional amounts presented between those derivatives that are designated as hedging instruments and those that are not designated as hedging instruments:

Certain of our derivative instruments are covered by associated credit-support agreements that have credit-risk-related contingent features designed to reduce both counterparties’ exposure to risk of defaulting on amounts owed by the other party. As of June 30, 2019, the aggregate fair value of these derivative instruments that are in a net liability position was $279 million, for which we have posted collateral of $283 million in the normal course of business. If there had been a downgrade to below an A rating by S&P or the equivalent rating by Moody’s, we would not have been required to post any additional collateral to our counterparties.

As of June 30, 2019, we received cash collateral of $1.6 billion from various counterparties. The collateral primarily supports the approximate fair value of our derivative contracts that are in a net asset position. With respect to the collateral received, the obligations are reported in Short-term borrowings, including current portion of long-term debt.

F. Credit Risk

On an ongoing basis, we review the creditworthiness of counterparties to our foreign exchange and interest rate agreements and do not expect to incur a significant loss from failure of any counterparties to perform under the agreements. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk related to our financial instruments with any individual counterparty, except for certain significant customers. For additional information on significant customers, see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 18C. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information: Other Revenue Information in Pfizer’s 2018 Financial Report. As of June 30, 2019, we had amounts due from a well-diversified, high quality group of banks ($2.0 billion) from around the world. For details about our investments, see Note 7B above.

In general, there is no requirement for collateral from customers. However, derivative financial instruments are executed under credit-support agreements that provide for the ability to request to receive cash collateral, depending on levels of exposure, our credit rating and the credit rating of the counterparty, see Note 7E above.

B. Goodwill

Prior to 2019, we managed our commercial operations through two distinct business segments: Pfizer Innovative Health (IH) and Pfizer Essential Health (EH). At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we reorganized our commercial operations and our businesses are now managed through three different operating segments––Biopharma, Upjohn and through July 31, 2019, Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business (see Note 13 for further information). Our Consumer Healthcare business is classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019 and, therefore the goodwill attributable to the Pfizer Consumer Healthcare business is included in Assets held for sale in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and not included in the table below (see Note 2 for further information). As a result of the reorganization of our commercial operations, our remaining goodwill was required to be reallocated amongst the new Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments by determining the fair value of each reporting unit under our old and new management structure and the portions being transferred. We completed this re-allocation based on relative fair value in the second quarter of 2019 and have retrospectively presented goodwill according to the new operating structure.

Note 12. Contingencies and Certain Commitments

We and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to numerous contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business, including tax and legal contingencies. For a discussion of our tax contingencies, see Note 5B. For a discussion of our legal contingencies, see below.

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

A. Legal Proceedings

Our legal contingencies include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

Patent litigation, which typically involves challenges to the coverage and/or validity of patents on various products, processes or dosage forms. We are the plaintiff in the majority of these actions. An adverse outcome in actions in which we are the plaintiff could result in loss of patent protection for a drug, a significant loss of revenues from that drug or impairment of the value of associated assets.


•	Product liability and other product-related litigation, which can include personal injury, consumer, off-label promotion, securities, antitrust and breach of contract claims, among others, often involves highly complex issues relating to medical causation, label warnings and reliance on those warnings, scientific evidence and findings, actual, provable injury and other matters.


•	Commercial and other matters, which can include merger-related and product-pricing claims and environmental claims and proceedings, can involve complexities that will vary from matter to matter.


•	Government investigations, which often are related to the extensive regulation of pharmaceutical companies by national, state and local government agencies in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions.

Certain of these contingencies could result in losses, including damages, fines and/or civil penalties, which could be substantial, and/or criminal charges.

We believe that our claims and defenses in matters in which we are a defendant are substantial, but litigation is inherently unpredictable and excessive verdicts do occur. We do not believe that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the amounts are accrued and/or our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid.

We have accrued for losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. Substantially all of our contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and/or the measurement of any loss can be complex. Consequently, we are unable to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but the assessment process relies heavily on estimates and assumptions that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause us to change those estimates and assumptions.

Amounts recorded for legal and environmental contingencies can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

The principal pending matters to which we are a party are discussed below. In determining whether a pending matter is a principal matter, we consider both quantitative and qualitative factors in order to assess materiality, such as, among other things, the amount of damages and the nature of any other relief sought in the proceeding, if such damages and other relief are specified; our view of the merits of the claims and of the strength of our defenses; whether the action purports to be, or is, a class action and, if not certified, our view of the likelihood that a class will be certified by the court; the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending; whether related actions have been transferred to multidistrict litigation; any experience that we or, to our knowledge, other companies have had in similar proceedings; whether disclosure of the action would be important to a reader of our financial statements, including whether disclosure might change a reader’s judgment about our financial statements in light of all of the information that is available to the reader; the potential impact of the proceeding on our reputation; and the extent of public interest in the matter. In addition, with respect to patent matters in which we are the plaintiff, we consider, among other things, the financial significance of the product protected by the patent(s) at issue. As a result of considering qualitative factors in our determination of principal matters, there are some matters discussed below with respect to which management believes that the likelihood of possible loss in excess of amounts accrued is remote.

A1. Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are involved in numerous suits relating to our patents, including but not limited to, those discussed below. Most of the suits involve claims by generic drug manufacturers that patents covering our products, processes or dosage forms are invalid and/or do not cover the product of the generic drug manufacturer. Also, counterclaims, as well as various independent actions, have been filed alleging that our assertions of, or attempts to enforce, patent rights with respect to certain products constitute unfair competition and/or violations of antitrust laws. In addition to the challenges to the U.S. patents on a number of our products that are discussed below, patent rights to certain of our products are being challenged in various other jurisdictions. We are also party to patent damages suits in various jurisdictions pursuant to which generic drug manufacturers, payers, governments or other parties are seeking damages from us for allegedly causing delay of generic entry.

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Additionally, our licensing and collaboration partners face challenges by generic drug manufacturers to patents covering products for which we have licenses or co-promotion rights. We also are often involved in other proceedings, such as inter partes review, post-grant review, re-examination or opposition proceedings, before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the European Patent Office, or other foreign counterparts relating to our intellectual property or the intellectual property rights of others. Also, if one of our patents is found to be invalid by such proceedings, generic or competitive products could be introduced into the market resulting in the erosion of sales of our existing products. For example, several of the patents in our pneumococcal vaccine portfolio were challenged in inter partes review and post-grant review proceedings in the U.S. The Patent Trial and Appeal Board refused to initiate proceedings as to two patents. In June 2018, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board ruled on another patent, holding that one claim was valid and that all other claims were invalid. The party challenging that patent has appealed the decision. In March and June 2019, an additional patent was found invalid in separate proceedings by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. We have appealed. Challenges to other patents remain pending in jurisdictions outside the U.S. The invalidation of all of the patents in our pneumococcal portfolio could potentially allow a competitor pneumococcal vaccine into the marketplace. In the event that any of the patents are found valid and infringed, a competitor pneumococcal vaccine might be prohibited from entering the market or required to pay Pfizer a royalty. We are also subject to patent litigation pursuant to which one or more third parties seeks damages and/or injunctive relief to compensate for alleged infringement of its patents by our commercial or other activities. For example, our Hospira subsidiaries are involved in patent and patent-related disputes over their attempts to bring generic pharmaceutical and biosimilar products to market. If one of our marketed products is found to infringe valid patent rights of a third party, such third party may be awarded significant damages, or we may be prevented from further sales of that product. Such damages may be enhanced as much as three-fold in the event that we or one of our subsidiaries, like Hospira, is found to have willfully infringed valid patent rights of a third party.

Actions In Which We Are The Defendant

Inflectra (infliximab-dyyb)

In March 2015, Janssen and New York University, together, brought a patent-infringement action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts against Hospira, Celltrion Healthcare Co. Ltd. and Celltrion Inc. alleging that infliximab-dyyb, to be marketed by Hospira in the U.S. under the brand name Inflectra, would infringe six patents relating to infliximab, its manufacture and use. Claims with respect to four of the patents were dismissed by the plaintiffs, leaving two patents at issue: the infliximab antibody patent and a patent relating to cell culture media. In January 2018, the antibody patent was declared invalid by the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. In July 2018, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment and ruled that the patent relating to cell culture media was not infringed. Janssen appealed the District Court’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

A2. Legal Proceedings––Product Litigation

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are defendants in numerous cases, including but not limited to those discussed below, related to our pharmaceutical and other products. Plaintiffs in these cases seek damages and other relief on various grounds for alleged personal injury and economic loss.

Asbestos

Between 1967 and 1982, Warner-Lambert owned American Optical Corporation (American Optical), which manufactured and sold respiratory protective devices and asbestos safety clothing. In connection with the sale of American Optical in 1982, Warner-Lambert agreed to indemnify the purchaser for certain liabilities, including certain asbestos-related and other claims. As of June 30, 2019, approximately 46,400 claims naming American Optical and numerous other defendants were pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged personal injury from exposure to asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials. Warner-Lambert was acquired by Pfizer in 2000 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer. Warner-Lambert is actively engaged in the defense of, and will continue to explore various means of resolving, these claims.

Numerous lawsuits are pending against Pfizer in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged personal injury from exposure to products allegedly containing asbestos and other allegedly hazardous materials sold by Pfizer and certain of its previously owned subsidiaries.

There also are a small number of lawsuits pending in various federal and state courts seeking damages for alleged exposure to asbestos in facilities owned or formerly owned by Pfizer or its subsidiaries.

Effexor

Beginning in May 2011, actions, including purported class actions, were filed in various federal courts against Wyeth and, in certain of the actions, affiliates of Wyeth and certain other defendants relating to Effexor XR, which is the extended-release formulation of Effexor. The plaintiffs in each of the class actions seek to represent a class consisting of all persons in the U.S. and its territories who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR from any of the defendants from June 14, 2008 until the time the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct ceased. The plaintiffs in all of the actions allege delay in the launch of generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories, in violation of federal antitrust laws and, in certain of the actions, the antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws of certain states, as the result of Wyeth fraudulently obtaining and improperly listing certain patents for Effexor XR in the Orange Book, enforcing certain patents for Effexor XR and entering into a litigation settlement agreement with a generic drug manufacturer with respect to Effexor XR. Each of the plaintiffs seeks treble damages (for itself in the individual actions or on behalf of the putative class

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

in the purported class actions) for alleged price overcharges for Effexor XR or generic Effexor XR in the U.S. and its territories since June 14, 2008. All of these actions have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.

In October 2014, the District Court dismissed the direct purchaser plaintiffs’ claims based on the litigation settlement agreement, but declined to dismiss the other direct purchaser plaintiff claims. In January 2015, the District Court entered partial final judgments as to all settlement agreement claims, including those asserted by direct purchasers and end-payer plaintiffs, which plaintiffs appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. In August 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit reversed the District Court’s decisions and remanded the claims to the District Court.

Lipitor


•	Antitrust Actions

Beginning in November 2011, purported class actions relating to Lipitor were filed in various federal courts against, among others, Pfizer, certain affiliates of Pfizer, and, in most of the actions, Ranbaxy, Inc. (Ranbaxy) and certain affiliates of Ranbaxy. The plaintiffs in these various actions seek to represent nationwide, multi-state or statewide classes consisting of persons or entities who directly purchased, indirectly purchased or reimbursed patients for the purchase of Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) from any of the defendants from March 2010 until the cessation of the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct (the Class Period). The plaintiffs allege delay in the launch of generic Lipitor, in violation of federal antitrust laws and/or state antitrust, consumer protection and various other laws, resulting from (i) the 2008 agreement pursuant to which Pfizer and Ranbaxy settled certain patent litigation involving Lipitor, and Pfizer granted Ranbaxy a license to sell a generic version of Lipitor in various markets beginning on varying dates, and (ii) in certain of the actions, the procurement and/or enforcement of certain patents for Lipitor. Each of the actions seeks, among other things, treble damages on behalf of the putative class for alleged price overcharges for Lipitor (or, in certain of the actions, generic Lipitor) during the Class Period. In addition, individual actions have been filed against Pfizer, Ranbaxy and certain of their affiliates, among others, that assert claims and seek relief for the plaintiffs that are substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above. These various actions have been consolidated for pre-trial proceedings in a Multi-District Litigation (In re Lipitor Antitrust Litigation MDL-2332) in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.

In September 2013 and 2014, the District Court dismissed with prejudice the claims by direct purchasers. In October and November 2014, the District Court dismissed with prejudice the claims of all other Multi-District Litigation plaintiffs. All plaintiffs have appealed the District Court’s orders dismissing their claims with prejudice to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. In addition, the direct purchaser class plaintiffs appealed the order denying their motion to amend the judgment and for leave to amend their complaint to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. In August 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit reversed the District Court’s decisions and remanded the claims to the District Court.

Also, in January 2013, the State of West Virginia filed an action in West Virginia state court against Pfizer and Ranbaxy, among others, that asserts claims and seeks relief on behalf of the State of West Virginia and residents of that state that are substantially similar to the claims asserted and the relief sought in the purported class actions described above.


•	Personal Injury Actions

A number of individual and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against us in various federal and state courts alleging that the plaintiffs developed type 2 diabetes purportedly as a result of the ingestion of Lipitor. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages.

In February 2014, the federal actions were transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Lipitor (Atorvastatin Calcium) Marketing, Sales Practices and Products Liability Litigation (No. II) MDL-2502) in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. Since 2016, certain cases in the Multi-District Litigation were remanded to certain state courts. In January 2017, the District Court granted our motion for summary judgment, dismissing substantially all of the remaining cases pending in the Multi-District Litigation. In January 2017, the plaintiffs appealed the District Court’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In June 2018, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the District Court’s decision.

Viagra

A number of individual and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against us in various federal and state courts alleging that the plaintiffs developed melanoma and/or the exacerbation of melanoma purportedly as a result of the ingestion of Viagra. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages.

In April 2016, the federal actions were transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In Re: Viagra (Sildenafil Citrate) Products Liability Litigation, MDL-2691) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. In December 2016, federal actions filed against Lilly and filed against both us and Lilly, were transferred for

(UNAUDITED)

coordinated pre-trial proceedings to the Multi-District Litigation (In re: Viagra (Sildenafil Citrate) and Cialis (Tadalafil) Products Liability Litigation, MDL-2691).

Intravenous Solutions

Beginning in November 2016, purported class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Hospira, Hospira Worldwide, Inc. and certain other defendants relating to intravenous saline solution. Plaintiffs seek to represent a class consisting of all persons and entities in the U.S. who directly purchased intravenous saline solution sold by any of the defendants from January 1, 2013 until the time the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct ceases. Plaintiffs allege that the defendants’ conduct restricts output and artificially fixes, raises, maintains and/or stabilizes the prices of intravenous saline solution sold throughout the U.S. in violation of federal antitrust laws. Plaintiffs seek treble damages (for themselves and on behalf of the putative classes) and an injunction against defendants for alleged price overcharges for intravenous saline solution in the U.S. since January 1, 2013. All of these actions have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. In July 2018, the District Court granted defendants’ motions to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint without prejudice. Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint in September 2018. On February 3, 2017, we completed the sale of our global infusion systems net assets, HIS, which includes intravenous saline solution, to ICU Medical. The litigation is the subject of cross-claims for indemnification by both Pfizer and ICU Medical under the purchase agreement.

Hormone Therapy Consumer Class Action

A certified consumer class action is pending against Wyeth in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California based on the alleged off-label marketing of its hormone therapy products. The case was originally filed in December 2003. The class consists of California consumers who purchased Wyeth’s hormone-replacement products between January 1995 and January 2003 and who do not seek personal injury damages therefrom. The class seeks compensatory and punitive damages, including a full refund of the purchase price.

EpiPen

Beginning in February 2017, purported class actions were filed in various federal courts by indirect purchasers of EpiPen against Pfizer, and/or its affiliates King and Meridian, and/or various entities affiliated with Mylan, and Mylan Chief Executive Officer, Heather Bresch. The plaintiffs in these actions seek to represent U.S. nationwide classes comprising persons or entities who paid for any portion of the end-user purchase price of an EpiPen between 2009 until the cessation of the defendants’ allegedly unlawful conduct. In August 2017, a similar lawsuit brought in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of a purported class of direct purchaser plaintiffs against Pfizer, King, Meridian and Mylan was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice. Against Pfizer and/or its affiliates, plaintiffs generally allege that Pfizer’s and/or its affiliates’ settlement of patent litigation regarding EpiPen delayed market entry of generic EpiPen in violation of federal antitrust laws and various state antitrust or consumer protection laws. At least one lawsuit also alleges that Pfizer and/or Mylan violated the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. Plaintiffs also filed various consumer protection and unjust enrichment claims against, and relating to conduct attributable solely to, Mylan and/or its affiliates regarding EpiPen. Plaintiffs seek treble damages for alleged overcharges for EpiPen since 2009. In August 2017, the actions were consolidated for coordinated pre-trial proceedings in a Multi-District Litigation (In re: EpiPen (Epinephrine Injection, USP) Marketing, Sales Practices and Antitrust Litigation, MDL-2785) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas with other EpiPen-related actions against Mylan and/or its affiliates to which Pfizer, King and Meridian are not parties.

Nexium 24HR and Protonix

A number of individual and multi-plaintiff lawsuits have been filed against Pfizer, certain of its subsidiaries and/or other pharmaceutical manufacturers in various federal and state courts alleging that the plaintiffs developed kidney-related injuries purportedly as a result of the ingestion of certain proton pump inhibitors. The cases against us involve Nexium 24HR and/or Protonix and seek compensatory and punitive damages and, in some cases, treble damages, restitution or disgorgement. In August 2017, the federal actions were ordered transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re: Proton-Pump Inhibitor Products Liability Litigation (No. II)) in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.

Docetaxel


•	Personal Injury Actions

A number of lawsuits have been filed against Hospira and Pfizer in various federal and state courts alleging that plaintiffs who were treated with Docetaxel developed permanent hair loss. The significant majority of the cases also name other defendants, including the manufacturer of the branded product, Taxotere. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages.

In October 2016, the federal cases were transferred for coordinated pre-trial proceedings to a Multi-District Litigation (In re Taxotere (Docetaxel) Products Liability Litigation, MDL-2740) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana.

•	Mississippi Attorney General Government Investigation

In October 2018, the Attorney General of Mississippi filed a complaint in Mississippi state court against the manufacturer of the branded product and eight other manufacturers including Pfizer and Hospira, alleging, with respect to Pfizer and Hospira, a failure to warn about a risk of permanent hair loss in violation of the Mississippi Consumer Protection Act.

Adalimumab Biosimilars

Beginning in March 2019, purported class actions relating to Humira and adalimumab biosimilars were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie), certain affiliates of AbbVie, and other pharmaceutical manufacturers. Pfizer is a named defendant in three of the actions. The plaintiffs seek to represent nationwide and multi-state classes consisting of persons and/or entities who are indirect purchasers of Humira from January 1, 2017 until the allegedly unlawful antitrust effects cease. Against Pfizer, the plaintiffs generally allege that Pfizer’s and AbbVie’s 2018 licensing agreements, resolving all global intellectual property matters for Pfizer’s proposed adalimumab biosimilar, delayed market entry of Pfizer’s biosimilar product in the U.S. in violation of federal antitrust laws, various state antitrust or consumer protection laws, and unjust enrichment laws. Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief and treble damages for alleged overcharges for Humira since 2017.

Array Securities Litigation

In November 2017, two purported class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado alleging that Array, which we acquired in July 2019 and is our wholly owned subsidiary, and certain of its former officers violated federal securities laws in connection with certain disclosures made, or omitted, by Array regarding the NRAS-mutant melanoma program. In March 2018, the actions were consolidated into a single proceeding.

A3. Legal Proceedings––Commercial and Other Matters

Average Wholesale Price Litigation

Pfizer, certain of its subsidiaries and other pharmaceutical manufacturers were sued in various state courts by a number of states alleging that the defendants provided average wholesale price (AWP) information for certain of their products that was higher than the actual average prices at which those products were sold. The AWP is used to determine reimbursement levels under Medicare Part B and Medicaid and in many private-sector insurance policies and medical plans. All but one of those actions have been resolved through settlement, dismissal or final judgment. The plaintiff state, Illinois, in the one remaining action, claims that the alleged spread between the AWPs at which purchasers were reimbursed and the actual sale prices was promoted by the defendants as an incentive to purchase certain of their products. The action alleges, among other things, fraud and violation of the state’s unfair trade practices and consumer protection statutes and seeks monetary and other relief, including civil penalties and treble damages.

Monsanto-Related Matters

In 1997, Monsanto Company (Former Monsanto) contributed certain chemical manufacturing operations and facilities to a newly formed corporation, Solutia Inc. (Solutia), and spun off the shares of Solutia. In 2000, Former Monsanto merged with Pharmacia & Upjohn Company to form Pharmacia. Pharmacia then transferred its agricultural operations to a newly created subsidiary, named Monsanto Company (New Monsanto), which it spun off in a two-stage process that was completed in 2002. Pharmacia was acquired by Pfizer in 2003 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer.

In connection with its spin-off that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities related to Pharmacia’s former agricultural business. New Monsanto has defended and/or is defending Pharmacia in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, the agricultural business, and has been indemnifying Pharmacia when liability has been imposed or settlement has been reached regarding such claims and litigation.

In connection with its spin-off in 1997, Solutia assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, liabilities related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses. As the result of its reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Solutia’s indemnification obligations relating to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses are primarily limited to sites that Solutia has owned or operated. In addition, in connection with its spinoff that was completed in 2002, New Monsanto assumed, and agreed to indemnify Pharmacia for, any liabilities primarily related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses, including, but not limited to, any such liabilities that Solutia assumed. Solutia’s and New Monsanto’s assumption of, and agreement to indemnify Pharmacia for, these liabilities apply to pending actions and any future actions related to Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses in which Pharmacia is named as a defendant, including, without limitation, actions asserting environmental claims, including alleged exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls. Solutia and/or New Monsanto are defending Pharmacia in connection with various claims and litigation arising out of, or related to, Former Monsanto’s chemical businesses, and have been indemnifying Pharmacia when liability has been imposed or settlement has been reached regarding such claims and litigation.

Environmental Matters

In 2009, we submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a corrective measures study report with regard to Pharmacia’s discontinued industrial chemical facility in North Haven, Connecticut. In September 2010, our corrective measures study report was approved by the EPA, and we commenced construction of the site remedy in late 2011 under an Updated Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA.

Also, in 2009, we submitted a revised site-wide feasibility study with regard to Wyeth Holdings Corporation’s (formerly, American Cyanamid Company) discontinued industrial chemical facility in Bound Brook, New Jersey. In July 2011, Wyeth Holdings Corporation finalized an Administrative Settlement Agreement with the EPA and Order on Consent for Removal Action (the 2011 Administrative Settlement Agreement) with the EPA with regard to the Bound Brook facility. In May 2012, we completed construction of an interim remedy to address the discharge of impacted groundwater from that facility to the Raritan River. In September 2012, the EPA issued a final remediation plan for the Bound Brook facility’s main plant area, which is generally in accordance with one of the remedies evaluated in our revised site-wide feasibility study. In March 2013, Wyeth Holdings Corporation (now Wyeth Holdings LLC) entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent with the EPA to allow us to undertake detailed engineering design of the remedy for the main plant area and to perform a focused feasibility study for two adjacent lagoons. In September 2015, the U.S., on behalf of the EPA, filed a complaint and consent decree with the federal District Court for the District of New Jersey that allows Wyeth Holdings LLC to complete the design and to implement the remedy for the main plant area. In December 2015, the consent decree (which supersedes the 2011 Administrative Settlement Agreement) was entered by the District Court. In September 2018, the EPA issued a final remediation plan for the two adjacent lagoons, which is generally in accordance with one of the remedies evaluated in our focused feasibility study. We have accrued for the estimated costs of the site remedies for the North Haven and Bound Brook facilities.

We are a party to a number of other proceedings brought under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, and other state, local or foreign laws in which the primary relief sought is the cost of past and/or future remediation.

Contracts with Iraqi Ministry of Health

In October 2017, a number of United States service members, civilians, and their families brought a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia against a number of pharmaceutical and medical devices companies, including Pfizer and certain of its subsidiaries, alleging that the defendants violated the United States Anti-Terrorism Act. The complaint alleges that the defendants provided funding for terrorist organizations through their sales practices pursuant to pharmaceutical and medical device contracts with the Iraqi Ministry of Health, and seeks monetary relief. In July 2018, the U.S. Department of Justice requested documents related to this matter, which are being provided.

Allergan Complaint for Indemnity

In August 2018, Pfizer was named as a defendant in a third-party complaint for indemnity, along with King, filed by Allergan Finance LLC (Allergan) in a Multi-District Litigation (In re National Prescription Opiate Litigation MDL 2804) in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The lawsuit asserted claims for indemnity related to Kadian, which was owned for a short period by King in 2008, prior to Pfizer's acquisition of King in 2010. In December 2018, the District Court dismissed the lawsuit. In February 2019, Allergan filed a similar complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, asserting claims for indemnity related to Kadian.

A4. Legal Proceedings––Government Investigations

Like other pharmaceutical companies, we are subject to extensive regulation by government agencies in the U.S., other developed markets and multiple emerging markets in which we operate. As a result, we have interactions with government agencies on an ongoing basis. Criminal charges, substantial fines and/or civil penalties, limitations on our ability to conduct business in applicable jurisdictions, corporate integrity or deferred prosecution agreements, as well as reputational harm and increased public interest in the matter could result from government investigations in the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which we do business. In addition, in a qui tam lawsuit in which the government declines to intervene, the relator may still pursue a suit for the recovery of civil damages and penalties on behalf of the government. Among the investigations by government agencies are the matters discussed below.

Phenytoin Sodium Capsules

In 2012, Pfizer sold the U.K. Marketing Authorisation for phenytoin sodium capsules to a third party, but retained the right to supply the finished product to that third party. In May 2013, the U.K. Competition & Markets Authority (CMA) informed us that it had launched an investigation into the supply of phenytoin sodium capsules in the U.K. market. In August 2015, the CMA issued a Statement of Objections alleging that Pfizer and Pfizer Limited, a U.K. subsidiary, engaged in conduct that violates U.K. and EU antitrust laws. In December 2016, the CMA imposed a £84.2 million fine on Pfizer and Pfizer Limited.

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

(UNAUDITED)

Pfizer appealed the CMA decision to The Competition Appeal Tribunal in February 2017. On June 7, 2018, the Competition Appeal Tribunal overturned the CMA decision as well as the associated fine. The CMA appealed the judgment to the Court of Appeal.

Greenstone Investigations


•	U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division Investigation

Since July 2017, the U.S. Department of Justice's Antitrust Division has been investigating our Greenstone generics business. We believe this is related to an ongoing broader antitrust investigation of the generic pharmaceutical industry. The government has been obtaining information from Greenstone.


•	State Attorneys General Generics Antitrust Litigation

In April 2018, Greenstone received requests for information from the Antitrust Department of the Connecticut Office of the Attorney General. In May 2019, Attorneys General of more than 40 states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico filed a complaint against a number of pharmaceutical companies, including Greenstone and Pfizer. The matter has been consolidated with a Multi-District Litigation (In re: Generic Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation MDL No. 2724) in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. As to Greenstone and Pfizer, the complaint alleges anticompetitive conduct in violation of federal and state antitrust laws and state consumer protection laws.

Subpoena relating to Manufacturing of Quillivant XR

In October 2018, we received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) seeking records relating to our relationship with another drug manufacturer and its production and manufacturing of drugs including, but not limited to, Quillivant XR. We are producing records pursuant to the subpoena.

Civil Investigative Demand relating to Meridian Medical Technologies

In February 2019, we received a civil investigative demand from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the SDNY. The civil investigative demand seeks records and information related to alleged quality issues involving the manufacture of auto-injectors at our Meridian site. We are producing records in response to this civil investigative demand.

Contracts with Iraqi Ministry of Health

See Note 12A3. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings––Commercial and Other Matters––Contracts with Iraqi Ministry of Health above for information regarding U.S. government investigations related to contracts with the Iraqi Ministry of Health.

Docetaxel––Mississippi Attorney General Government Investigation

See Note 12A2. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings––Product Litigation––Docetaxel––Mississippi Attorney General Government Investigation above for information regarding a government investigation related to Docetaxel marketing practices.

B. Guarantees and Indemnifications

In the ordinary course of business and in connection with the sale of assets and businesses and other transactions, we often indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with the transaction or that are related to events and activities prior to or following a transaction. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we may be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnifications are generally subject to various restrictions and limitations. Historically, we have not paid significant amounts under these provisions and, as of June 30, 2019, the estimated fair value of these indemnification obligations was not significant.

In addition, in connection with our entry into certain agreements, our counterparties agree to indemnify us. For example, our collaboration agreement with EMD Serono, Inc. to co-promote Rebif in the U.S. expired at the end of 2015 and included certain indemnity provisions. Patent litigation brought by Biogen Idec MA Inc. against EMD Serono Inc. and Pfizer is pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. EMD Serono Inc. has acknowledged that it is obligated to satisfy any award of damages.

Pfizer Inc. has also guaranteed the long-term debt of certain companies that it acquired and that now are subsidiaries of Pfizer.

C. Certain Commitments

On February 7, 2019, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement with GS&Co. to repurchase approximately $6.8 billion of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, on February 12, 2019, we paid approximately $6.8 billion to GS&Co. and received an initial delivery of approximately 130 million shares of our common stock from GS&Co., which represented, based on the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on February 7, 2019, approximately 80% of the notional amount of the accelerated share repurchase agreement. On August 1, 2019, the accelerated share repurchase agreement with GS&Co. was completed, which, per the terms of the agreement, resulted in GS&Co. owing us a certain number

PFIZER INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

of shares of Pfizer common stock. Pursuant to the agreement’s settlement terms, we received an additional 33.5 million shares of our common stock from GS&Co. on August 5, 2019. The average price paid for all of the shares delivered under the accelerated share repurchase agreement was $41.42 per share. The common stock received is included in Treasury stock. This agreement was entered into pursuant to our previously announced share repurchase authorization. After giving effect to the accelerated share repurchase agreement and other share repurchases through June 30, 2019, our remaining share-purchase authorization was approximately $5.3 billion on June 30, 2019.

Note 13. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information

A. Segment Information

At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of three distinct business segments: Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group (Biopharma), Upjohn and through July 31, 2019, Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business (Consumer Healthcare). The Biopharma, Upjohn and Consumer Healthcare segments are each led by a single manager. Each operating segment has responsibility for its commercial activities. Upjohn and Consumer Healthcare are responsible for their own R&D activities while Biopharma receives its R&D services from GPD and WRDM. These services include IPR&D projects for new investigational products and additional indications for in-line products. Each business has a geographic footprint across developed and emerging markets. Our chief operating decision maker uses the revenues and earnings of the three operating segments, among other factors, for performance evaluation and resource allocation. Biopharma and Upjohn are the only reportable segments. We have revised prior-period information (Revenues and Earnings, as defined by management) to conform to the current management structure. As our operations were not managed under the new structure until the beginning of fiscal 2019, certain costs and expenses could not be directly attributed to one of the new operating segments. As a result, our operating segment results for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 include allocations, which management believes are reasonable.

Operating Segments



Some additional information about our Biopharma and Upjohn business segments follows:
	Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group
Biopharma is a science-based innovative medicines business that includes six business units – Oncology, Inflammation & Immunology, Rare Disease, Hospital, Vaccines and Internal Medicine. The new Hospital unit commercializes our global portfolio of sterile injectable and anti-infective medicines and includes Pfizer’s contract manufacturing operation, Pfizer CentreOne. At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we also incorporated our biosimilar portfolio into our Oncology and Inflammation & Immunology business units and certain legacy established products into the Internal Medicine business unit. Each business unit is committed to delivering breakthroughs that change patients’ lives.		Upjohn is a global, primarily off-patent branded and generic established medicines business, which includes 20 primarily off-patent solid oral dose legacy brands, as well as certain generic medicines.
Select products include: - Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13 - Ibrance - Eliquis - Xeljanz - Enbrel (outside the U.S. and Canada) - Chantix/Champix - Sutent - Xtandi		Select products include: - Lyrica - Lipitor - Norvasc - Celebrex - Viagra - Certain generic medicines

(UNAUDITED)

On July 29, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, creating a new global pharmaceutical company. For additional information, see Note 1A.

Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare segment is an over-the-counter medicines business, which on July 31, 2019 was combined with GSK’s consumer healthcare business to form a new consumer healthcare joint venture. See Note 2 for additional information.

Other Costs and Business Activities

Certain pre-tax costs are not allocated to our operating segment results, such as costs associated with the following:

•

WRDM––the R&D and Medical expenses managed by our WRDM organization, which is generally responsible for research projects for our Biopharma portfolio until proof-of-concept is achieved and then for transitioning those projects to the GPD organization for possible clinical and commercial development. R&D spending may include upfront and milestone payments for intellectual property rights. The WRDM organization also has responsibility for certain science-based and other platform-services organizations, which provide end-to-end technical expertise and other services to the various R&D projects, as well as the Worldwide Medical and Safety group, which ensures that Pfizer provides all stakeholders––including patients, healthcare providers, pharmacists, payers and health authorities––with complete and up-to-date information on the risks and benefits associated with Pfizer products so that they can make appropriate decisions on how and when to use Pfizer’s medicines.


•	GPD––the costs associated with our GPD organization, which is generally responsible for clinical trials from WRDM in the Biopharma portfolio, including late stage portfolio spend. GPD also provides technical support and other services to Pfizer R&D projects. GPD is responsible for facilitating all regulatory submissions and interactions with regulatory agencies.


•	Other––the operating results of our Consumer Healthcare business, and costs associated with other commercial activities not managed as part of Biopharma or Upjohn, including all strategy, business development, portfolio management and valuation capabilities, which previously had been reported in various parts of the organization.

•

Corporate and Other Unallocated––the costs associated with platform functions (such as worldwide technology, global real estate operations, legal, finance, human resources, worldwide public affairs, compliance, and worldwide procurement), patient advocacy activities and certain compensation and other corporate costs, such as interest income and expense, and gains and losses on investments, as well as overhead expenses associated with our manufacturing (which include manufacturing variances associated with production) and commercial operations that are not directly assessed to an operating segment, as business unit (segment) management does not manage these costs.

•

Certain transactions and events such as (i) purchase accounting adjustments, where we incur expenses associated with the amortization of fair value adjustments to inventory, intangible assets and PP&E; (ii) acquisition-related costs, where we incur costs for executing the transaction, integrating the acquired operations and restructuring the combined company; and (iii) certain significant items, representing substantive and/or unusual, and in some cases recurring, items (such as restructuring charges, legal charges or net gains and losses on investments in equity securities) that are evaluated on an individual basis by management and that, either as a result of their nature or size, would not be expected to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis. Such items can include, but are not limited to, non-acquisition-related restructuring costs, as well as costs incurred for legal settlements, asset impairments and disposals of assets or businesses, including, as applicable, any associated transition activities.

Segment Assets

We manage our assets on a total company basis, not by operating segment, as many of our operating assets are shared or commingled (such as accounts receivable, as many of our customers are served by multiple operating segments). Therefore, our chief operating decision maker does not regularly review any asset information by operating segment and, accordingly, we do not report asset information by operating segment. Total assets were approximately $156 billion as of June 30, 2019 and $159 billion as of December 31, 2018.

^(a)	The Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group encompasses Internal Medicine, Oncology, Hospital, Vaccines, Inflammation & Immunology and Rare Disease. The new Hospital business unit commercializes our global portfolio of sterile injectable and anti-infective medicines, and also includes Pfizer CentreOne^(f).


^(b)	We reclassified certain products from the LEP category, including Premarin family products, and certain other products from the legacy Peri-LOE category, including Pristiq, to the Internal Medicine category and reclassified Lyrica from the Internal Medicine category to the Upjohn business to conform 2018 product revenues to the current presentation.


^(c)	We performed certain reclassifications in the All other Oncology category to conform 2018 product revenues to the current presentation.

^(d)

Hospital is a new business unit that commercializes our global portfolio of sterile injectable and anti-infective medicines. We performed certain reclassifications, primarily from the legacy Sterile Injectables Pharmaceuticals (SIP) category (Sulperazon, Medrol, Fragmin, Tygacil, Zosyn/Tazocin and Precedex, among other products), the LEP category (Epipen and Zithromax), and the legacy Peri-LOE category (Vfend and Zyvox) to the Hospital category to conform 2018 product revenues to the current presentation. Hospital also includes Pfizer CentreOne^(f). All other Hospital primarily includes revenues from legacy SIP products (that are not anti-infective products) and, to a much lesser extent, solid oral dose products (that are not anti-infective products). SIP anti-infective products that are not individually listed above are recorded in “All other Anti-infectives”.

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Pfizer Inc.:

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Pfizer Inc. and Subsidiary companies (the Company) as of June 30, 2019, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 28, 2019, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

OVERVIEW OF OUR PERFORMANCE, OPERATING ENVIRONMENT, STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK

Our Business

We apply science and our global resources to bring therapies to people that extend and significantly improve their lives through the discovery, development and manufacture of healthcare products, including innovative medicines and vaccines, as well as, through July 31, 2019, many of the world’s best-known consumer healthcare products. We work across developed and emerging markets to advance wellness, prevention, treatments and cures that challenge the most feared diseases of our time. We collaborate with healthcare providers, governments and local communities to support and expand access to reliable, affordable healthcare around the world. Our revenues are derived from the sale of our products and, to a much lesser extent, from alliance agreements, under which we co-promote products discovered or developed by other companies or us (Alliance revenues).

At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of three business segments––Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group (Biopharma), Upjohn and through July 31, 2019, Consumer Healthcare. Biopharma and Upjohn are the only reportable segments. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale and Note 13A. Segment, Geographic and Other Revenue Information: Segment Information and the “Our Strategy––Commercial Operations” section of this MD&A below.

The majority of our revenues come from the manufacture and sale of biopharmaceutical products. As explained more fully in our 2018 Form 10-K, the biopharmaceutical industry is highly competitive and highly regulated. As a result, we face a number of industry-specific factors and challenges, which can significantly impact our results. These factors include, among others: the loss or expiration of intellectual property rights and the expiration of co-promotion and licensing rights, the ability to replenish innovative biopharmaceutical products, healthcare legislation, pipeline productivity, the regulatory environment, pricing and access pressures and competition. We also face challenges as a result of the global economic environment. For additional information about these factors and challenges, see the “Our Operating Environment” and “The Global Economic Environment” sections of this MD&A and of our 2018 Financial Report and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

The financial information included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for our subsidiaries operating outside the U.S. is as of and for the three and six months ended May 26, 2019 and May 27, 2018. The financial information included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for U.S. subsidiaries is as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018.

References to operational variances in this MD&A pertain to period-over-period growth rates that exclude the impact of foreign exchange. The operational variances are determined by multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, our current period U.S. dollar results by the current period average foreign exchange rates and then multiplying or dividing, as appropriate, those amounts by the prior-year period average foreign exchange rates. Although exchange rate changes are part of our business, they are not within our control. Exchange rate changes, however, can mask positive or negative trends in the business; therefore, we believe presenting operational variances provides useful information in evaluating the results of our business.

Our significant recent business development activities include:

•

Formation of a New Consumer Healthcare Joint Venture––On July 31, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we closed the transaction in which we and GSK combined our respective consumer healthcare businesses into a new consumer healthcare joint venture that operates globally under the GSK Consumer Healthcare name. The joint venture is a category leader in pain relief, respiratory and vitamins, minerals and supplements, and therapeutic oral health and is the largest global OTC consumer healthcare business. In exchange for contributing our Consumer Healthcare business, we received a 32% equity stake in the new company and GSK owns the remaining 68%. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale and the “Our Strategy––Commercial Operations” section of this MD&A below.

•

57% of the combined new company, and Mylan shareholders would own 43%. The transaction is expected to be tax free to Pfizer and Pfizer shareholders. The transaction is anticipated to close in mid-2020, subject to Mylan shareholder approval and customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

•

Acquisition of Therachon Holding AG––On July 1, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we acquired all the remaining shares of Therachon, a privately-held clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on rare diseases, with assets in development for the treatment of achondroplasia, a genetic condition and the most common form of short-limb dwarfism, for $340 million upfront, plus potential milestone payments of up to $470 million. In 2018, Pfizer acquired 3% of Therachon’s outstanding shares.

For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale and the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” sections of this MD&A below.

Product Manufacturing

We periodically encounter difficulties or delays in manufacturing, including due to suspension of manufacturing or voluntary recall of a product, or legal or regulatory actions such as warning letters. For example, Hospira’s manufacturing facility in McPherson, Kansas is currently under the FDA inspection status of Official Action Indicated (OAI). As a result of this status, the FDA may refuse to grant premarket approval of applications and/or the FDA may refuse to grant export certificates related to products manufactured at our McPherson site until the site status is upgraded, which upgrade would be based on a re-inspection by the FDA. Future FDA inspections and regulatory activities will further assess the adequacy and sustainability of corrections implemented at the site. Communication with the FDA on the status of the McPherson site is ongoing. For additional information regarding the FDA inspection of the McPherson site, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors––Product Manufacturing, Sales and Marketing Risks” of our 2018 Form 10-K. Also, in March 2019, we received a warning letter from the FDA communicating the FDA’s view that certain violations of cGMP regulations exist at Pfizer’s Irungattukottai (IKKT) manufacturing facility in Chennai, India. The warning letter is related to the FDA’s March-April 2018 inspection of the IKKT facility. Following this inspection, Pfizer paused production at the IKKT facility and initiated implementation of a comprehensive corrective and preventive action plan to address the issues noted by the FDA. Due to long-term loss of product demand, Pfizer announced in January 2019 its intention to exit the IKKT facility and subsequently the site has been closed.

The product shortages we have been experiencing within our portfolio are primarily for products from the legacy Hospira portfolio and are largely driven by capacity constraints, technical issues and supplier quality concerns. We continue to remediate issues at legacy Hospira facilities manufacturing sterile injectables. Any continuing product shortage interruption at these manufacturing facilities could negatively impact our financial results, specifically in our Hospital portfolio. We continue to make progress on our comprehensive remediation plan to upgrade and modernize these facilities, and we expect our supply issues to be substantially improved by the end of 2019.

Our Second Quarter 2019 Performance

Revenues

Revenues in the second quarter of 2019 decreased $203 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2018, which reflects an operational increase of $324 million, or 2%, more than offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $527 million, or 4%. Revenues in the first six months of 2019 were relatively flat compared to the same period in 2018, and reflect an unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $980 million, or 4%, and an operational increase of $989 million.

The following provides an analysis of the changes in revenues for the second quarter and first six months of 2019:

Our Operating Environment

Industry-Specific Challenges

Intellectual Property Rights and Collaboration/Licensing Rights

The loss, expiration or invalidation of intellectual property rights, patent litigation settlements with manufacturers and the expiration of co-promotion and licensing rights can have a significant adverse effect on our revenues. Many of our branded products have multiple patents that expire at varying dates, thereby strengthening our overall patent protection. However, once patent protection has expired or has been lost prior to the expiration date as a result of a legal challenge, we typically lose exclusivity on these products, and generic and biosimilar pharmaceutical manufacturers generally produce similar products and sell them for a lower price. The date at which generic competition commences may be different from the date that the patent or regulatory exclusivity expires. However, when generic competition does commence, the resulting price competition can substantially decrease our revenues for the impacted products, often in a very short period of time. Also, if one of our patents is found to be invalid by judicial, court or administrative proceedings, such as inter partes review, post-grant review, re-examination or opposition proceedings, before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the European Patent Office, or other foreign counterparts, generic or competitive products could be introduced into the market resulting in the erosion of sales of our existing products. For example, several of the patents in our pneumococcal vaccine portfolio were challenged in inter partes review and post-grant review proceedings in the U.S. The Patent Trial and Appeal Board refused to initiate proceedings as to two patents. In June 2018, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board ruled on another patent, holding that one claim was valid and that all other claims were invalid. The party challenging that patent has appealed the decision. In March and June 2019, an

additional patent was found invalid in separate proceedings by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. We have appealed. Challenges to other patents remain pending in jurisdictions outside the U.S. The invalidation of all of the patents in our pneumococcal portfolio could potentially allow a competitor pneumococcal vaccine into the marketplace. In the event that any of the patents are found valid and infringed, a competitor pneumococcal vaccine might be prohibited from entering the market or required to pay Pfizer a royalty.

A number of our current products have experienced patent-based expirations or loss of regulatory exclusivity in certain markets in the last few years. For example, as a result of a patent litigation settlement, Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. launched a generic version of Viagra in the U.S. in December 2017. Patent expiries will continue over several years, with Lyrica (a product in our Upjohn business) losing patent protection in the U.S. in June 2019. We expect the impact of reduced revenues due to patent expiries will be significant in 2019 and 2020, then moderating downward to a much lower level from 2021 through 2025.

Our biologic products, including BeneFIX, ReFacto, Xyntha, Bavencio, Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13 and Enbrel (we market Enbrel outside the U.S. and Canada), may face in the future, or already face, competition from biosimilars (also referred to as follow-on biologics). If competitors are able to obtain marketing approval for biosimilars referencing our biologic products, our biologic products may become subject to competition from these biosimilars, with attendant competitive pressure, and price reductions could follow. For example, Enbrel faces ongoing biosimilar competition in most developed Europe markets. The expiration or successful challenge of applicable patent rights could trigger this competition, assuming any relevant regulatory exclusivity period has expired.

See the “Intellectual Property Rights and Collaboration/Licensing Rights” section of our 2018 Financial Report for additional information about recent losses and expected losses of product exclusivity in the U.S., Europe and/or Japan impacting product revenues.

For additional information, including the patent rights we consider most significant in relation to our business as a whole, together with the year in which the basic product patent expires, see the “Patents and Other Intellectual Property Rights” section in Part I, Item 1, “Business” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

We will continue to vigorously defend our patent rights whenever we deem appropriate. For a discussion of certain recent developments with respect to patent litigation, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A1. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation.

Regulatory Environment/Pricing and Access––U.S. Healthcare Legislation

In March 2010, the ACA was enacted in the U.S. For additional information, see the “Government Regulation and Price Constraints” section in Part I, Item 1, “Business” of our 2018 Form 10-K.



We recorded the following amounts as a result of the U.S. Healthcare Legislation:
	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	June 30, 2019		July 1, 2018		June 30, 2019		July 1, 2018
Reduction to Revenues, related to the Medicare “coverage gap” discount provision	$	154	$	117	$	289	$	218
Selling, informational and administrative expenses, related to the fee payable to the federal government (which is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes), based on our prior-calendar-year share relative to other companies of branded prescription drug sales to specified government programs. The first six months of 2018 also reflected a favorable true-up associated with the updated 2017 invoice received from the federal government, which reflected a lower expense than what was previously estimated for invoiced periods.	70		73		121		75

Regulatory Environment/Pricing and Access––Government and Other Payer Group Pressures

The pricing of medicines by pharmaceutical manufacturers and the cost of healthcare, which includes medicines, medical services and hospital services, continues to be important to payers, governments, patients, and other stakeholders. We believe that medicines are amongst the most powerful tools for patients in curing, treating and preventing illness and disability, and that all patients should have appropriate access to the medicines their doctors prescribe. We may consider a number of factors when determining a medicine’s price, including, for example, its impact on patients and their disease, other available treatments, the medicine’s potential to reduce other healthcare costs (such as hospital stays), and affordability. Within the U.S., in particular, we may also engage with patients, doctors and healthcare plans regarding their views. We also negotiate with insurers, including PBMs and MCOs, often providing significant discounts to them from the list price. The price that patients pay in the U.S. for the medicines their physicians prescribe is ultimately set by healthcare providers and insurers. On average, in the U.S., insurers

impose a higher out-of-pocket burden on patients for prescription medicines than for comparably-priced medical services. We will continue to work with insurance providers, governments and others to improve access to today’s innovative treatments.

Governments, MCOs and other payer groups continue to seek increasing discounts on our products through a variety of means, such as leveraging their purchasing power, implementing price controls, and demanding price cuts (directly or by rebate actions). In Europe, Japan, China, Canada, South Korea and some other international markets, governments provide healthcare at low-to-zero direct cost to consumers at the point of care and have significant power as large single payers to regulate pharmaceutical prices or patient reimbursement levels to control costs for the government-sponsored healthcare system, particularly under recent global economic pressures.

U.S.––In the U.S., government action to reduce federal spending on entitlement programs including Medicare and Medicaid may affect payment for our products or services provided using our products. Any significant spending reductions or cost controls affecting Medicare, Medicaid or other publicly funded or subsidized health programs that may be implemented could have an adverse impact on our results of operations. Significant Medicare reductions could also result if, for example, Congress proceeds with certain proposals to convert the Medicare fee-for-service program into a premium support program, or Congress chooses to implement the recommendations made annually by the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, which are primarily intended to extend the fiscal solvency of the Medicare program.

Consolidation among MCOs has increased the negotiating power of MCOs and other third-party payers. Private third-party payers, as well as governments, increasingly employ formularies to control costs by taking into account discounts in connection with decisions about formulary inclusion or favorable formulary placement. Failure to obtain or maintain timely or adequate pricing or favorable formulary placement for our products, or failure to obtain such formulary placement at favorable pricing, could adversely impact revenue.

Efforts by government officials or legislators to implement measures to regulate prices or payment for pharmaceutical products, including legislation on drug importation, could adversely affect our business if implemented. Recently, there has been considerable public and government scrutiny of pharmaceutical pricing and measures to address the perceived high cost of pharmaceuticals are being considered by Congress, the Presidential Administration and select states.

We believe medicines are the most efficient and effective use of healthcare dollars based on the value they deliver to the overall healthcare system. We will continue to work with law makers and advocate for solutions that effectively improve patient health outcomes, lower costs to the healthcare system, and ensure access to medicines within an efficient and affordable healthcare system.

There have been significant efforts at the federal and state levels to reform the healthcare system by enhancing access to healthcare, improving the delivery of healthcare and further rationalizing payment for healthcare. We face uncertainties due to federal legislative and administrative efforts to repeal, substantially modify or invalidate some or all of the provisions of the ACA. For example, tax reform legislation enacted at the end of 2017 eliminates the tax penalty for individuals who do not maintain sufficient health insurance coverage beginning in 2019 (the so-called “individual mandate”). We anticipate continued Congressional interest in modifying provisions of the ACA, particularly given the December 2018 ruling in Texas v. Azar to invalidate the law as unconstitutional, and the subsequent decision by the U.S. Department of Justice not to defend the law. At this time, the law remains in effect pending appeals of the decision. Given the outcomes of the 2018 U.S. midterm elections with Democrats taking over the U.S. House of Representatives and Republicans growing their majority in the U.S. Senate, we believe it is unlikely Congress will find bipartisan consensus to advance any significant changes to the ACA until the legal process unfolds. The revenues generated for Pfizer by the health insurance exchanges and Medicaid expansion under the ACA are not material, so the impact of the change in law and similar recent Presidential Administration actions is expected to be limited. Any future replacement, modification or repeal of the ACA may adversely affect our business and financial results, particularly if the legislation reduces incentives for employer-sponsored insurance coverage. As another example, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which increased the discount we pay in the Medicare Part D “coverage gap” from 50% to 70%, will modestly increase our future Medicare Part D rebates. Any future healthcare reform efforts may adversely affect our business and financial results.

The potential for additional pricing and access pressures in the commercial sector continues to be significant. Some employers, seeking to avoid the tax on high-cost health insurance in the ACA to be imposed in 2022, are already scaling back healthcare benefits and an increasing number are implementing high deductible benefit designs. This is a trend that is likely to continue. Private third-party payers, such as health plans, increasingly challenge pharmaceutical product pricing, which could result in lower prices, lower reimbursement rates and a reduction in demand for our products. Pricing pressures for our products may occur as a result of highly competitive insurance markets. Healthcare provider purchasers, directly or through group purchasing organizations, are seeking enhanced discounts or implementing more rigorous bidding or purchasing review processes.

Overall, there is increasing pressure on U.S. providers to deliver healthcare at a lower cost and to ensure that those expenditures deliver demonstrated value in terms of health outcomes. Longer term, we are seeing a shift in focus away from fee-for-service

payments towards outcomes-based payments and risk-sharing arrangements that reward providers for cost reductions and improved patient outcomes. These new payment models can, at times, lead to lower prices for, and restricted access to, new medicines. At the same time, these models can also promote utilization of drugs by encouraging physicians to screen and diagnose and consider drugs as a means of forestalling more costly medical interventions.

Outside the U.S.––Certain governments, including the different EU Member States, China, Japan, Canada and South Korea, have significant power as large single payers to regulate prices and may use a variety of cost-containment measures for our pharmaceutical products, including price cuts, mandatory rebates, public or private health technology assessments, forced localization as a condition of market access and international reference pricing (i.e., the practice of a country linking its regulated medicine prices to those of other countries). As a result, we expect that such pressures on the pricing component of operating results will continue. In addition, the international patchwork of price regulation and differing economic conditions and incomplete value assessments across countries has led to varying health outcomes and some third-party trade in our products between countries.

In particular, international reference pricing adds to the regional impact of price cuts in individual countries and hinders patient access and innovation. Price variations, exacerbated by international reference pricing systems, also have resulted from exchange rate fluctuations. The downward pricing pressure resulting from this dynamic can be expected to continue as a result of reforms to international reference pricing policies and measures targeting pharmaceuticals in some European countries.

In addition, several important multilateral organizations, such as the United Nations (UN), including the World Health Organization (WHO), and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), are increasing scrutiny of international pharmaceutical pricing through issuing reports and policy recommendations. In 2019, the WHO continued exerting pressure on pharmaceutical pricing practices by supporting strategies to reduce medicine prices, including calling for greater transparency around the cost of research and development and production of medicines, as well as disclosure of net prices.

In China, pricing pressures have increased in recent years, and Chinese government officials have consistently emphasized that decreased drug prices will serve as a key indicator of progress towards ambitious healthcare reform goals. While the government provides basic health insurance for the vast majority of Chinese citizens, that insurance is not adequate to cover many innovative medicines, and alternative funding sources for innovative medicines remain suboptimal.

In 2017 and 2018, China’s government negotiated with companies to add approximately 60 innovative drugs (mainly oncology medicines) to the National Reimbursement Drug List. Prices for drugs were reduced dramatically through this government-led process. While these negotiations included a path to access for companies, market access is not strictly assured. In addition, significant questions about the processes and negotiations for provincial tendering remain, as well as the need for multi-layered negotiations across provincial, municipal and hospital levels. In the off-patent space, in 2013, China began to implement a quality consistency evaluation (QCE) process in order to improve the quality of domestically-manufactured generic drugs, primarily by requiring such drugs to pass a test to assess their bioequivalence to a qualified reference drug (typically the originator drug). In 2018, numerous local generics were officially deemed bioequivalent under QCE. A pilot project for centralized volume-based procurement was then initiated including 31 categories of drugs covering 11 major Chinese cities. Under this procurement model, a tender process has been established where a certain portion of included molecule volumes are guaranteed to tender winners. The program is intended to contain healthcare cost by driving utilization of generics that have passed QCE and contain healthcare cost, which has resulted in dramatic price cuts for off-patent drugs. In July 2019, China’s government announced a plan for a nationwide expansion of the volume-based procurement model. We are taking steps to mitigate the revenue impact of these initiatives but anticipate that they will continue to affect Upjohn’s operations in China going forward.

In response to the evolving U.S. and global healthcare spending landscape, we continue to work with health authorities, health technology assessment and quality measurement bodies and major U.S. payers throughout the product-development process to better understand how these entities value our compounds and products. Further, we seek to develop stronger internal capabilities focused on demonstrating the value of the medicines that we discover or develop, register and manufacture, by recognizing patterns of usage of our medicines and competitor medicines along with patterns of healthcare costs.

For additional information, see the “Regulatory Environment––Pipeline Productivity” and “Competition” sections of our 2018 Financial Report and the “Government Regulation and Price Constraints” section in Part I, Item 1, “Business” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

The Global Economic Environment

In addition to the industry-specific factors discussed above, we, like other businesses of our size, are exposed to the economic cycle, which impacts our biopharmaceutical operations globally.

•

Governments, corporations, and insurance companies, which provide insurance benefits to patients, have implemented increases in cost-sharing and restrictions on access to medicines, potentially causing patients to switch to generic or biosimilar products, delay treatments, skip doses or use less effective treatments. As discussed above, government financing pressures can lead to negative pricing pressure in various markets where governments take an active role in setting prices, access criteria (e.g., through public or private health technology assessments), or other means of cost control. Examples include the different EU Member States, Japan, China, Canada, South Korea and a number of other international markets. The U.S. continues to maintain competitive insurance markets, but has also seen significant increases in patient cost-sharing and growing government influence as government programs continue to grow as a source of coverage.

•

Significant portions of our revenues, costs and expenses, as well as our substantial international net assets, are exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. We seek to manage our foreign exchange risk in part through operational means, including managing same-currency revenues in relation to same-currency costs and same-currency assets in relation to same-currency liabilities. Depending on market conditions, foreign exchange risk also is managed through the use of derivative financial instruments and foreign currency debt. As we operate in multiple foreign currencies, including the euro, the Japanese yen, the Chinese renminbi, the U.K. pound, the Canadian dollar and approximately 100 other currencies, changes in those currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will impact our revenues and expenses. If the U.S. dollar were to weaken against another currency, assuming all other variables remained constant, our revenues would increase, having a positive impact on earnings, and our overall expenses would increase, having a negative impact on earnings. Conversely, if the U.S. dollar were to strengthen against another currency, assuming all other variables remained constant, our revenues would decrease, having a negative impact on earnings, and our overall expenses would decrease, having a positive impact on earnings. Therefore, significant changes in foreign exchange rates can impact our results and our financial guidance.

The impact of possible currency devaluations in countries experiencing high inflation rates or significant exchange fluctuations, including Venezuela and Argentina, can impact our results and financial guidance. For further information about our exposure to foreign currency risk, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” and the “Our Financial Guidance for 2019” sections of this MD&A.

•

In June 2016, the U.K. electorate voted in a referendum to leave the EU, which is commonly referred to as “Brexit”. In March 2017, the U.K. government formally notified the European Council of its intention to leave the EU after it triggered Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty to begin the two-year negotiation process establishing the terms of the exit and outlining the future relationship between the U.K. and the EU. Formal negotiations officially started in June 2017. After multiple votes in the British Parliament in January and March 2019 failing to approve the draft Brexit withdrawal agreement with the EU, the U.K. government negotiated a delay to the U.K.’s withdrawal until October 31, 2019, with the option of an earlier date if agreement can be reached sooner, so the new date of Brexit is still uncertain. The outcome after Brexit also continues to be uncertain, which may pose certain implications to our research, commercial and general business operations in the U.K. and the EU, including the approval and supply of our products. At present, it is still unclear whether and to what extent the U.K. will remain within or aligned to the EU system of medicines regulation, depending on the ultimate outcome of the negotiations. However, both the U.K. and the EU have issued detailed guidance for the industry on how medicines, medical devices and clinical trials will be separately regulated in their respective territories in the event of a ‘hard Brexit’, meaning an outcome where no negotiated settlement is reached. This outcome is appearing increasingly more likely in light of recent political developments.

We generated approximately 2% of our worldwide revenues from the U.K. in 2018 and in the first six months of 2019, including the foreign currency exchange impact from the weakening U.K. pound relative to the U.S. dollar to date.

Pfizer’s preparations for Brexit, including for a ‘hard Brexit’, are well advanced to make the changes necessary to meet all relevant requirements in the EU and the U.K. after Brexit, especially in the regulatory, research, manufacturing and supply chain areas. The principal aim is to ensure the continuity of supply to patients in Europe (EU and the U.K.) and other global markets impacted by these changes. Between 2018 and 2021, we expect to spend up to approximately $70 million in one-time costs to make these adaptations.

Pfizer maintains a strong financial position while operating in a complex global environment. Due to our significant operating cash flows, financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we continue to believe that we have, and will maintain, the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. Our long-term debt is rated high quality by both S&P and Moody’s. As market conditions change, we continue to monitor our liquidity position. We have taken and will continue to take a conservative approach to our financial investments. Both short-term and long-term investments consist primarily of high-quality, highly liquid, well-diversified, available-for-sale debt securities. For further discussion of our financial condition and credit ratings, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.

These and other industry-wide factors that may affect our businesses should be considered along with information presented in the “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” section of this MD&A and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

Our Strategy

We believe that our medicines provide significant value for both healthcare providers and patients, not only from the improved treatment of diseases but also from a reduction in other healthcare costs, such as emergency room or hospitalization costs, as well as improvements in health, wellness and productivity. We continue to actively engage in dialogues about the value of our medicines and how we can best work with patients, physicians and payers to prevent and treat disease and improve outcomes. We continue to work within the current legal and pricing structures, as well as continue to review our pricing arrangements and contracting methods with payers, to maximize patient access and minimize any adverse impact on our revenues. We remain firmly committed to fulfilling our company’s purpose: Breakthroughs that change patients’ lives. By doing so, we expect to create value for the patients we serve and for our colleagues and shareholders.

Organizing for Growth

We believe we have one of the strongest pipelines in over a decade, and believe we are well positioned for future growth. Patent expiries will continue over several years, with Lyrica (a product in our Upjohn business) losing patent protection in the U.S. in June 2019. We expect the impact of reduced revenues due to patent expiries will be significant in 2019 and 2020, then moderating downward to a much lower level from 2021 through 2025. This confluence of events has given us an opportunity to look at and refine how we organize our business to best achieve sustainable growth and to deliver our medicines and vaccines to the maximum number of people who need them.

At the beginning of our fiscal year 2019, we began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of three businesses, each of which is led by a single manager—Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group (Biopharma), Upjohn and, through July 31, 2019, Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business. We designed this new global structure to take advantage of new growth opportunities driven by the evolving and unique dynamics of relevant markets.

See the “Commercial Operations” section below for additional information about each business.

We also reorganized our R&D operations as part of our Organizing for Growth reorganization:


•	The former Worldwide, Research and Development organization is renamed Worldwide Research, Development and Medical (WRDM) as we have created a new Worldwide Medical & Safety organization in WRDM that incorporates the former Chief Medical Office as well as the Worldwide Safety function;


•	The R&D organization within our former Essential Health business has been integrated into the WRDM, GPD and Upjohn organizations, including moving biosimilars into WRDM and GPD and realigning them with the relevant therapeutic areas (e.g., Oncology and Inflammation & Immunology);


•	The Regulatory function has been moved from the WRDM organization into the GPD organization; and


•	Late-stage portfolio spend has been moved from our former Innovative Health business to GPD and from our former Essential Health business to GPD and Upjohn.

We re-aligned our commercial operations in 2019 for a number of reasons, including:


•	Bringing biosimilars into our Oncology and Inflammation & Immunology therapeutic categories gives us the potential to leverage our R&D, regulatory and commercial infrastructure within the Biopharma business to more efficiently bring those assets to market;


•	Creating a business unit (i.e., the Hospital unit within Biopharma) that is solely focused on medicines that are used in hospitals can potentially bring greater focus and attention to serving those customers and developing those relationships;


•	Giving Upjohn more autonomy with a focus on maximizing the value of its products, particularly in emerging markets, provides it the opportunity to operate as a standalone business within Pfizer with the potential for sustainable modest growth; and


•	We believe this new structure better positions each business to achieve its growth potential as we transition to a period post-2020 where we expect higher and more sustained revenue growth due to declining LOEs and the potential of our late-stage pipeline.

Biopharma seeks to leverage a strong pipeline, organize around operational growth drivers, and capitalize on trends creating long-term growth opportunities, including:


•	an aging global population that is generating increased demand for innovative medicines that address patients’ unmet needs;


•	advances in both biological science and digital technology that are enhancing the delivery of breakthrough new medicines; and


•	the increasingly significant role of hospitals in healthcare systems.

Urbanization and the rise of the middle class in emerging markets, particularly in Asia, provide growth opportunities for the Upjohn business. Our ability to work collaboratively within local markets and to be fast, focused and flexible is intended to

position this business to seize these opportunities. Upjohn has distinct and dedicated manufacturing, marketing, regulatory and, subject to limited exceptions, enabling functions that report directly into the business providing autonomy and positioning Upjohn to operate as a true stand-alone division. We created this new structure to, among other things, position Upjohn to optimize its distinct growth potential and provide us with the flexibility to access further opportunities to enhance value.

Subsequent to the re-alignment of our commercial operations in 2019, on July 29, 2019, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, creating a new global pharmaceutical company. We believe the new company will transform and accelerate Upjohn’s and Mylan’s ability to serve patients’ needs and expand their capabilities across more than 165 markets. The combination will drive a sustainable, diverse and differentiated portfolio of prescription medicines, complex generics, over-the-counter products and biosimilars supported by commercial and regulatory expertise, established infrastructure, R&D capabilities and manufacturing and supply chain excellence.

As we prepare for expected growth, we are focused on creating a simpler, more efficient organization by streamlining structures, processes and governance within each business and the functions that support them. As our innovative pipeline matures based on anticipated progression of current trials and the initiation of new pivotal trials, including new trials for medicines we may acquire or in-license, we will need to increase our R&D investments. In addition, as our pipeline potentially delivers new commercialization opportunities, we will need to increase our investments in new-market-creation activities. We are also initiating an enterprise-wide digital effort to accelerate drug development, enhance experiences (patient and physician), and leverage technology and robotics to simplify and automate our processes.

In the fourth quarter of 2018, we took steps to simplify the organization, increase spans of control and reduce organizational layers, which impacted some managerial roles and responsibilities. We also offered enhancements to certain employee benefits for a short period of time. The expenses related to these enhancements for certain employee benefits did not have a material impact on our 2018 results of operations and any expected future impact of these enhancements are reflected in the totality of our annual guidance for 2019. To partially offset the incremental cost increases of increased R&D investments and marketing activities in future periods, we expect to generate cost reduction opportunities, particularly in indirect SI&A.

Commercial Operations

As discussed under “Organizing for Growth”, at the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we began to manage our commercial operations through a new global structure consisting of three business segments––Biopharma, Upjohn and through July 31, 2019, Consumer Healthcare, each led by a single manager. Each operating segment has responsibility for its commercial activities. Upjohn and Consumer Healthcare are responsible for their own R&D activities while Biopharma receives its R&D services from GPD and WRDM. These services include IPR&D projects for new investigational products and additional indications for in-line products. Each business has a geographic footprint across developed and emerging markets.



Some additional information about our Biopharma and Upjohn business segments follows:
	Pfizer Biopharmaceuticals Group
Biopharma is a science-based innovative medicines business that includes six business units – Oncology, Inflammation & Immunology, Rare Disease, Hospital, Vaccines and Internal Medicine. The new Hospital unit commercializes our global portfolio of sterile injectable and anti-infective medicines and includes Pfizer’s contract manufacturing operation, Pfizer CentreOne. At the beginning of our 2019 fiscal year, we also incorporated our biosimilar portfolio into our Oncology and Inflammation & Immunology business units and certain legacy established products into the Internal Medicine business unit. Each business unit is committed to delivering breakthroughs that change patients’ lives.		Upjohn is a global, primarily off-patent branded and generic established medicines business, which includes 20 primarily off-patent solid oral dose legacy brands, as well as certain generic medicines.
Select products include: - Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13 - Ibrance - Eliquis - Xeljanz - Enbrel (outside the U.S. and Canada) - Chantix/Champix - Sutent - Xtandi		Select products include: - Lyrica - Lipitor - Norvasc - Celebrex - Viagra - Certain generic medicines

Description of Research and Development Operations

Innovation is critical to the success of our company, and drug discovery and development are time-consuming, expensive and unpredictable. Our goal is to discover, develop and bring to market innovative products that address major unmet medical needs. Our R&D priorities include:


•	delivering a pipeline of differentiated therapies and vaccines with the greatest medical and commercial potential;


•	advancing our capabilities that can position Pfizer for long-term leadership; and


•	creating new models for biomedical collaboration that will expedite the pace of innovation and productivity.

To that end, our R&D primarily focuses on:


•	Oncology;


•	Inflammation and Immunology;


•	Rare Diseases;


•	Hospital;


•	Vaccines; and


•	Internal Medicine.

In 2019, we continue to strengthen our global R&D organization and pursue strategies intended to improve innovation and overall productivity in R&D to achieve a sustainable pipeline that is positioned to deliver value in the near term and over time.

Our R&D spending is conducted through a number of matrix organizations:

•

Research Units within our WRDM organization are generally responsible for research and early-stage development assets for our Biopharma business (assets that have not yet achieved proof-of-concept). Our Research Units are organized by therapeutic area to enhance flexibility, cohesiveness and focus. Because of our structure, we are able to rapidly redeploy resources within a Research Unit between various projects as necessary because in many instances the workforce shares similar skills, expertise and/or focus.

•

Our science-based and other platform-services organizations, where a significant portion of our R&D spending occurs, provide technical expertise and other services to the various R&D projects, and are organized into science-based functions (which are part of our WRDM organization), such as Pharmaceutical Sciences, Medicine Design, and non-science-based functions, such as Facilities, Business Technology and Finance. As a result, within each of these functions, we are able to migrate resources among projects, candidates and/or targets in any therapeutic area and in most phases of development, allowing us to react quickly in response to evolving needs. In addition, the Worldwide Medical and Safety group ensures that Pfizer provides all stakeholders, including patients, healthcare providers, pharmacists, payers and health authorities with complete and up-to-date information on the risks and benefits associated with Pfizer products so that they can make appropriate decisions on how and when to use Pfizer’s medicines.


•	Our R&D organization within the Upjohn business supports the off-patent branded and generic established medicines and helps develop product enhancements, new indications and new market registrations based on these medicines.

•

Our GPD organization is a unified center for clinical development and regulatory activities that is generally responsible for the clinical development strategy and operational execution of clinical trials for both early-stage assets in the WRDM portfolio as well as late-stage assets in the Biopharma portfolio. For WRDM assets, GPD works in close collaboration with the Early Clinical Development group, which has expertise in various disciplines such as Biostatistics, Clinical Pharmacology and Digital Medicine. GPD enables more efficient and effective development and enhances our ability to accelerate and progress assets through our pipeline. GPD also provides operational support to Upjohn for select clinical development and regulatory activities.

We manage R&D operations on a total-company basis through our matrix organizations described above. Specifically, a portfolio governance committee, comprised of senior executives, is accountable for aligning resources among all of our WRDM, GPD and Biopharma R&D projects and for seeking to ensure optimal capital allocation across the innovative R&D portfolio. We believe that this approach also serves to maximize accountability and flexibility. Our Upjohn R&D organization manages its resources separately from the WRDM and GPD organizations.

Generally, we do not disaggregate total R&D expense by development phase or by therapeutic area since, as described above, we do not manage a significant portion of our R&D operations by development phase or by therapeutic area. Further, as we are able to adjust a significant portion of our spending quickly, as conditions change, we believe that any prior-period information about R&D expense by development phase or by therapeutic area would not necessarily be representative of future spending.

While a significant portion of R&D is done internally, we continue to seek out promising chemical and biological lead molecules and innovative technologies developed by third parties to incorporate into our discovery and development processes or projects, as well as our product lines, by entering into collaboration, alliance and license agreements with other companies, as well as leveraging acquisitions and equity- or debt-based investments. These agreements enable us to co-develop, license or acquire promising compounds, technologies or capabilities. We also enter into agreements pursuant to which a third party agrees to fund a portion of the development costs of one or more of our pipeline products in exchange for rights to receive potential milestone payments, revenue sharing payments, profit sharing payments and/or royalties. Collaboration, alliance, license and funding agreements and equity- or debt-based investments allow us to share risk and cost and to access external scientific and technological expertise, and provide us the opportunity to advance our own products as well as the in-licensed or acquired products.

For additional information about R&D by operating segment, see the “Analysis of Operating Segment Information” section of this MD&A. For additional information about our pending new drug applications and supplemental filings, see the “Analysis of the Consolidated Statements of Income––Product Developments––Biopharmaceutical” section of this MD&A. For additional information about recent transactions and strategic investments that we believe have the potential to advance our pipeline, see the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A.

Intellectual Property Rights

We continue to vigorously defend our patent rights against increasingly aggressive infringement, and we will continue to support efforts that strengthen worldwide recognition of patent rights while taking necessary steps to ensure appropriate patient access. In addition, we will continue to employ innovative approaches designed to prevent counterfeit pharmaceuticals from entering the supply chain and to achieve greater control over the distribution of our products, and we will continue to participate in the generics market, whenever appropriate. Also, the pursuit of valid business opportunities may require us to challenge intellectual property rights held by other companies that we believe were improperly granted. Such challenges may include negotiation and litigation, which may not always be successful. For additional information about our current efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights and certain other patent proceedings, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A1. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings––Patent Litigation. For information on risks related to patent protection and intellectual property claims by third parties, see Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors––Risks Related to Intellectual Property” in our 2018 Form 10-K.

Capital Allocation and Expense Management

We seek to maintain a strong balance sheet and robust liquidity so that we continue to have the financial resources necessary to take advantage of prudent commercial, research and business development opportunities and to directly enhance shareholder value through share repurchases and dividends. For additional information about our financial condition, liquidity, capital resources, share repurchases (including accelerated share repurchases) and dividends, see the “Analysis of Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A. For additional information about our recent business development activities, see the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A.

We remain focused on achieving an appropriate cost structure for our company. For additional information about our cost-reduction and productivity initiatives, see the “Costs and Expenses––Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives.

Increasing Investment in the U.S.––After evaluating the expected positive net impact the TCJA will have on us, in early 2018, we decided to take several actions:

•

Over the five-year period from 2018 through 2022, we plan to invest approximately $5.0 billion in capital projects in the U.S., including the strengthening of our manufacturing presence in the U.S. As part of this plan, in July 2018, we announced that we will increase our commitment to U.S. manufacturing with a $465 million investment to build one of the most technically advanced sterile injectable pharmaceutical production facilities in the world in Portage, Michigan. This U.S. investment will strengthen our capability to produce and supply critical, life-saving injectable medicines for patients around the world. Known as Modular Aseptic Processing, the new, multi-story, 400,000-square-foot production facility will also support the area economy by creating an estimated 450 new jobs over the next several years.


•	We made a $500 million voluntary contribution to the U.S. Pfizer Consolidated Pension Plan in February 2018.


•	In the fourth quarter of 2017, we made a $200 million charitable contribution to the Pfizer Foundation, an organization that provides grant and investment funding to support organizations and social entrepreneurs in an effort to improve healthcare delivery.


•	In the first quarter of 2018, we paid a special, one-time bonus to virtually all Pfizer colleagues, excluding executives, of $119 million in the aggregate.

Our Business Development Initiatives

We are committed to capitalizing on growth opportunities by advancing our own pipeline and maximizing the value of our in-line products, as well as through various forms of business development, which can include alliances, licenses, joint ventures, collaborations, equity- or debt-based investments, dispositions, mergers and acquisitions. We view our business development activity as an enabler of our strategies, and we seek to generate earnings growth and enhance shareholder value by pursuing a disciplined, strategic and financial approach to evaluating business development opportunities. We continue to evaluate business development transactions that have the potential to strengthen our businesses and their capabilities, such as our recently-announced agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, our acquisitions of Array, Medivation, Anacor and AstraZeneca’s small molecule anti-infectives business, as well as collaborations, and alliance and license agreements with other companies. We assess our businesses, assets and scientific capabilities/portfolio as part of our regular, ongoing portfolio review process and also continue to consider business development activities that will advance our businesses.

The more significant recent transactions and events are described below:

•

Formation of a New Consumer Healthcare Joint Venture––On July 31, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we closed the transaction in which we and GSK combined our respective consumer healthcare businesses into a new consumer healthcare joint venture that operates globally under the GSK Consumer Healthcare name. The joint venture is a category leader in pain relief, respiratory and vitamins, minerals and supplements, and therapeutic oral health and is the largest global OTC consumer healthcare business. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 2. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale.

•

Acquisition of Therachon Holding AG––On July 1, 2019, which fell in the third fiscal quarter of 2019, we acquired all the remaining shares of Therachon, a privately-held clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on rare diseases, with assets in development for the treatment of achondroplasia, a genetic condition and the most common form of short-limbed dwarfism. We acquired Therachon for $340 million upfront, plus potential milestone payments of up to $470 million, contingent on the achievement of key milestones in the development and commercialization of the lead asset TA-46. In 2018, Pfizer acquired 3% of Therachon’s outstanding shares.

For a description of the more significant recent transactions through February 28, 2019, the filing date of our 2018 Form 10-K, see the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” section of our 2018 Financial Report.

Our Financial Guidance for 2019

On July 29, 2019, we updated our 2019 financial guidance, which reflects the following:


•	The formation of the Consumer Healthcare joint venture with GSK:


–	Includes revenue and expense contributions associated with Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business through July 31, 2019.

–

Includes Pfizer’s pro rata share of the joint venture anticipated earnings, which will be recorded on a quarterly basis in Adjusted other (income)/deductions, from August 1, 2019 through the end of 2019. Pfizer will record its share of the joint venture’s anticipated earnings on a one-quarter lag; therefore, updated 2019 financial guidance for Adjusted other (income)/deductions and Adjusted diluted EPS now reflects Pfizer’s share of two months of the joint venture’s earnings that are expected to be generated in the third quarter of 2019, which will be recorded by Pfizer in the fourth quarter of 2019.


•	The completion of the Array acquisition and the completion of the Therachon acquisition. See the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” section above for additional information.



The following table provides our financial guidance for full-year 2019^{(a), (b)}:
Revenues	$50.5 to $52.5 billion
	(previously $52.0 to $54.0 billion)
Adjusted cost of sales as a percentage of revenues	20.1% to 21.1%
	(previously 20.8% to 21.8%)
Adjusted selling, informational and administrative expenses	$13.0 to $14.0 billion
	(previously $13.5 to $14.5 billion)
Adjusted research and development expenses	$7.9 to $8.3 billion
	(previously $7.8 to $8.3 billion)
Adjusted other (income)/deductions	Approximately $200 million of income
Effective tax rate on adjusted income	Approximately 16.0%
Adjusted diluted EPS	$2.76 to $2.86
	(previously $2.83 to $2.93)


^(a)	In addition to the Consumer Healthcare, Array and Therachon transactions discussed above, the 2019 financial guidance reflects the following:


•	Does not assume the completion of any business development transactions not completed as of June 30, 2019 (except for the July 31, 2019 formation of the Consumer Healthcare joint venture with GSK, the July 30, 2019 acquisition of Array and the July 1, 2019 acquisition of Therachon), including any one-time upfront payments associated with such transactions.


•	Reflects an anticipated negative revenue impact of $2.4 billion due to recent and expected generic and biosimilar competition for certain products that have recently lost or are anticipated to soon lose patent protection.

•

Exchange rates assumed are a blend of the actual exchange rates in effect through second-quarter 2019 and mid-July 2019 rates for the remainder of the year. Reflects the anticipated unfavorable impact of approximately $1.2 billion on revenues and approximately $0.08 on adjusted diluted EPS as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar compared to foreign exchange rates from 2018.

•

Guidance for adjusted diluted EPS assumes diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of approximately 5.7 billion shares, which reflects the weighted-average impact of share repurchases totaling $8.9 billion executed in the first quarter of 2019. Dilution related to share-based employee compensation programs is currently expected to offset the reduction in shares associated with these share repurchases by approximately half.


^(b)	For an understanding of Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted EPS (all of which are non-GAAP financial measures), see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)” section of this MD&A.

Pfizer does not provide guidance for GAAP Reported financial measures (other than revenues) or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP Reported financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, net gains or losses on investments in equity securities and potential future asset impairments without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP Reported results for the guidance period.

For information about our actual costs and anticipated costs and cost savings associated with our 2017-2019 initiatives and Organizing for Growth, see the “Costs and Expenses––Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives” section of this MD&A and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives.

Our 2019 financial guidance is subject to a number of factors and uncertainties as described in the “Our Operating Environment”, “The Global Economic Environment”, “Our Strategy” and “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” sections of this MD&A; and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

Preliminary Financial Profile Upon the Completion of the Proposed Combination of Upjohn with Mylan

In connection with our agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, as adjusted for the proposed separation of the Upjohn business described in the “Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” section of this MD&A above, we also announced very preliminary targets for Pfizer without our Upjohn segment. We expect to generate 2020 revenues of approximately $40 billion, driven by our Biopharma business. We anticipate achieving Adjusted income before tax margins (defined as Revenue less the sum of Adjusted expenses plus Adjusted other (income)/deductions as a percentage of revenue) in the mid-30s% range and operating cash flow of $11 billion to $12 billion.

We will provide any appropriate updates to this as adjusted preliminary financial profile by or before the Company’s fourth-quarter 2019 earnings report, expected in late January 2020 or early February 2020. We also expect that following the closing of the transaction, the combined dividend dollar amount received by Pfizer shareholders in the event the equity distribution contemplated by the proposed transaction is structured as a spinoff, based upon the combination of continued ownership of Pfizer common stock and an expected 0.12 shares of the new company granted for each Pfizer share, will equate to our per share dividend amount in effect immediately prior to closing.

For an understanding of Adjusted income and its components (all of which are non-GAAP financial measures), see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)” section of this MD&A. Pfizer does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP Reported financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict certain items without unreasonable effort.

Our preliminary financial profile upon the completion of the proposed combination of Upjohn with Mylan is subject to a number of factors and uncertainties as described in the “Our Operating Environment”, “The Global Economic Environment”, “Our Strategy” and “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” sections of this MD&A; and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

For a description of our significant accounting policies, see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies in our 2018 Financial Report. Of these policies, the following are considered critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements as they require the application of the most subjective and the most complex judgments: Acquisitions (Note 1D); Fair Value (Note 1E); Revenues (Note 1G ); Asset Impairments (Note 1L); Tax Assets and Liabilities and Income Tax Contingencies (Note 1P); Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans (Note 1Q); and Legal and Environmental Contingencies (Note 1R).

Second Quarter of 2019 vs. Second Quarter of 2018



The following provides an analysis of the worldwide change in revenues by geographic areas in the second quarter of 2019:
	Three Months Ended June 30, 2019
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	Worldwide			U.S.			International
Operational growth/(decline):
Continued growth from certain key brands^(a)	$	675		$	311		$	364
Growth from Biosimilars, primarily in the U.S.	38			42			(5		)
Volume-driven growth from Celebrex and Effexor, primarily in Japan	31			(1		)	32
Growth in Consumer Healthcare reflecting growth in international markets	8			(11		)	19
Decline from Lipitor and Norvasc, primarily in China, driven by the March 2019 government implementation of a volume-based procurement program in certain cities	(131		)	(1		)	(130		)
Lower revenues for Enbrel internationally, reflecting continued biosimilar competition in most developed Europe markets	(87		)	—			(87		)
Lower revenues for the Hospital products business, primarily reflecting declines in developed markets, mostly due to the continued expected negative impact from generic competition for products that have previously lost marketing exclusivity as well as product supply shortages	(86		)	(77		)	(9		)
Lower revenues for Viagra and Upjohn's authorized generic for Viagra in the U.S. resulting from increased generic competition following Viagra's December 2017 patent expiration	(70		)	(69		)	(1		)
Lower revenues for certain rare disease products, including the hemophilia franchises (Refacto AF/Xyntha and BeneFIX), primarily due to competitive pressures, and Genotropin in developed markets, mainly due to unfavorable channel mix	(43		)	(9		)	(34		)
Lower revenues for Prevnar 13 in the U.S., primarily reflecting lower government purchases for the pediatric indication as well as continued decline in revenues for the adult indication due to a declining “catch up” opportunity compared to the prior year quarter. International revenues increased mostly due to higher volumes reflecting continued uptake following the second quarter 2017 launch in China, as well as higher volumes resulting from increased shipments associated with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of timing associated with government purchases for the pediatric indication in certain emerging markets	(38		)	(70		)	31
Lower worldwide revenues for Lyrica, primarily in the U.S., reflecting wholesaler destocking in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition expected to begin on July 1, 2019 (which instead began on July 19, 2019), and in developed Europe, reflecting continued generic competition	(31		)	(26		)	(5		)

^(a)	Certain key brands represent Ibrance, Eliquis and Xeljanz. See the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income––Revenues––Selected Product Discussion" section of this MD&A for product analysis information.

Emerging markets revenues decreased $152 million, or 5%, in the second quarter of 2019 to $3.1 billion from $3.2 billion, reflecting an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange of approximately 9%, partially offset by an operational increase of $128 million, or 4%. The operational increase in emerging markets was driven by Ibrance, Eliquis and Prevenar 13 in our Biopharma segment.

First Six Months of 2019 vs. First Six Months of 2018



The following provides an analysis of the change in worldwide revenues by geographic areas in the first six months of 2019:
	Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Volume-driven growth from Celebrex and Effexor, primarily in Japan	73			(3		)	77
Growth from Lipitor and Norvasc, primarily in emerging markets, driven by strong, volume-driven operational growth in China in the first fiscal quarter of 2019, partially offset by declines driven by the March 2019 government implementation of a volume-based procurement program in certain cities in the second quarter of 2019	73			(8		)	80
Higher revenues for Biosimilars, primarily in the U.S.	51			61			(10		)
Lower revenues for Viagra and Upjohn's authorized generic for Viagra in the U.S. resulting from increased generic competition following Viagra's December 2017 patent expiration	(167		)	(179		)	12
Lower revenues for the Hospital products business, primarily reflecting declines in developed markets, mostly due to the continued expected negative impact from generic competition for products that have previously lost marketing exclusivity as well as product supply shortages	(157		)	(145		)	(12		)
Lower revenues for Enbrel internationally, reflecting continued biosimilar competition in most developed Europe markets	(101		)	—			(101		)
Lower revenues for certain rare disease products, including the hemophilia franchises (Refacto AF/Xyntha and BeneFIX) primarily due to competitive pressures, and Genotropin in developed markets, primarily due to unfavorable channel mix	(95		)	(34		)	(61		)
Lower worldwide revenues for Lyrica, primarily in the U.S., reflecting wholesaler destocking in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition expected to begin on July 1, 2019 (which instead began on July 19, 2019), and in developed Europe, reflecting continued generic competition	(49		)	(44		)	(5		)
Lower revenues for Greenstone, Upjohn's authorized generic subsidiary, primarily due to continued industry-wide pricing challenges in the U.S., excluding revenues for Upjohn's authorized generic for Viagra in the U.S.	(22		)	(25		)	2
Lower revenues for Consumer Healthcare in the U.S., partially offset by growth in international markets	(11		)	(49		)	38

Unfavorable impact of foreign exchange	(980		)	—			(980		)
Revenues increase/(decrease)	$	9		$	10		$	(1	)


^(a)	Certain key brands represent Ibrance, Eliquis, Xeljanz and Prevnar 13/Prevenar 13. See the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income––Revenues––Selected Product Discussion" section of this MD&A for product analysis information.

Emerging markets revenues increased $91 million, or 1%, in the first six months of 2019 to $6.4 billion from $6.3 billion, reflecting an operational increase of $659 million, or 10%. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact of approximately 9% on emerging markets revenues. The operational increase in emerging markets was driven by Prevenar 13, Ibrance and Eliquis in our Biopharma segment and Lipitor, Norvasc and Celebrex in our Upjohn segment.

Revenue Deductions

Our gross product revenues are subject to a variety of deductions, which generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. Such variable consideration represents chargebacks, rebates, sales allowances and sales returns. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations and, as such, knowledge and judgment is required when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. Historically, our adjustments of estimates, to reflect actual results or updated expectations, have not been material to our overall business. On a quarterly basis, our adjustments of estimates to reflect actual results generally have been less than 1% of revenues, and have resulted in either a net increase or a net decrease in revenues. Product-specific rebates, however, can have a significant impact on year-over-year individual product growth trends.



The following table provides information about revenue deductions:
	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	June 30, 2019		July 1, 2018		June 30, 2019		July 1, 2018
Medicare rebates^(a)	$	351	$	425	$	785	$	823
Medicaid and related state program rebates^(a)	459		503		1,028		998
Performance-based contract rebates^{(a), (b)}	972		853		1,861		1,613
Chargebacks^(c)	1,368		1,584		2,924		3,196
Sales allowances^(d)	1,454		1,366		2,814		2,694
Sales returns and cash discounts	477		363		804		709
Total^(e)	$	5,082	$	5,094	$	10,216	$	10,033


^(a)	Rebates are product-specific and, therefore, for any given year are impacted by the mix of products sold.

^(b)

Performance-based contract rebates include contract rebates with MCOs within the U.S., including health maintenance organizations and PBMs, who receive rebates based on the achievement of contracted performance terms and claims under these contracts. Outside the U.S., performance-based contract rebates include rebates to wholesalers/distributors based on achievement of contracted performance for specific products or sales milestones.


^(c)	Chargebacks primarily represent reimbursements to U.S. wholesalers for honoring contracted prices to third parties.


^(d)	Sales allowances primarily represent price reductions that are contractual or legislatively mandated outside the U.S., discounts and distribution fees.

^(e)

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, associated with the following segments: Biopharma ($3.0 billion), Upjohn ($1.9 billion) and Other ($0.2 billion). For the three months ended July 1, 2018, associated with the following segments: Biopharma ($2.5 billion), Upjohn ($2.4 billion) and Other ($0.2 billion). For the six months ended June 30, 2019, associated with the following segments: Biopharma ($5.7 billion), Upjohn ($4.2 billion) and Other ($0.3 billion). For the six months ended July 1, 2018, associated with the following segments: Biopharma ($4.9 billion), Upjohn ($4.8 billion) and Other ($0.3 billion).

Total revenue deductions were flat for the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018, and total revenue deductions for the first six months of 2019 increased 2%, compared to the first six months of 2018, primarily as a result of:


•	an increase in performance-based contract rebates, primarily in the U.S. due to increased sales of certain Biopharma products;


•	an increase in Biopharma sales allowances in U.S. and ex-U.S. markets; and


•	an increase in sales returns and cash discounts primarily due to a sales returns reserve recorded for Lyrica in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2019 in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition that was expected to begin on July 1, 2019 but instead began on July 19, 2019,

partially offset by:


•	a decrease in chargebacks, primarily related to Upjohn products, including Viagra.

The decline in the second quarter of 2019 in the U.S. primarily reflects lower government purchases for the pediatric indication as well as the continued decline in revenues for the adult indication due to a high initial capture rate of the eligible population following its successful fourth-quarter 2014 launch, which resulted in a smaller remaining “catch up” opportunity (i.e., the opportunity to reach adults aged 65 years and older who have not been previously vaccinated with Prevnar 13). The decline in the first six months of 2019 in the U.S. was mainly due to the continued decline in revenues for the adult indication in the U.S. due to the aforementioned declining “catch up” opportunity for the adult indication compared to the prior-year period.

The operational growth in the second quarter of 2019 internationally was mostly due to higher volumes reflecting continued uptake following the second quarter 2017 launch in China, as well as higher volumes resulting from increased shipments associated with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of timing associated with government purchases for the pediatric indication in certain emerging markets. The operational growth in the first six months of 2019 internationally was primarily due to higher volumes resulting from increased shipments associated with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, and higher volumes reflecting continued uptake following the second quarter 2017 launch in China, partially offset by the non-recurrence of volumes associated with an adult national immunization program in first quarter 2018.

In 2014, the ACIP voted to recommend Prevnar 13 for routine use to help protect adults aged 65 years and older against pneumococcal disease, which for adults includes pneumonia caused by the 13 pneumococcal serotypes included in the vaccine. These ACIP recommendations were subsequently approved by the directors at the CDC and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and were published in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report in September 2014 by the CDC. The CDC regularly monitors the impact of vaccination and reviews the recommendations. During the February 2019 ACIP meeting, the CDC presented a formal evaluation of evidence to the recommendation framework (grading) for ACIP’s input. On June 26, 2019, the ACIP voted to revise the pneumococcal vaccination guidelines and recommend Prevnar 13 for adults 65 and older based on the shared clinical decision making of the provider and patient, which means the decision to vaccinate should be made at the individual level between health care providers and their patients. This revised recommendation reaffirms that there remains vaccine preventable pneumococcal disease in the population of adults 65 years or older, which may be prevented through direct vaccination, but we expect ACIP’s provisional recommendation will have a negative effect on Prevnar 13 revenues for the remainder of 2019.

The declines in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 in the U.S. were primarily due to lower volumes reflecting wholesaler destocking in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition that was expected to begin on July 1, 2019 but instead began on July 19, 2019.

The operational decline internationally in the second quarter of 2019 was mostly due to generic competition in developed Europe markets and pricing pressures across certain emerging markets, partially offset by increased volumes in Russia and across certain emerging markets. The operational decline internationally in the first six months of 2019 was mostly due to generic competition in developed Europe markets and pricing pressures across international markets, partially offset by increased volumes in Japan attributable to growth in the orally dissolving tablet formulation, and increased volumes in Russia.

Eliquis alliance revenues and direct sales (Biopharma): Eliquis has been jointly developed and is commercialized by Pfizer and BMS. Pfizer funds between 50% and 60% of all development costs depending on the study. Profits and losses are shared equally on a global basis, except in certain countries where Pfizer commercializes Eliquis and pays BMS compensation based on a percentage of net sales. We have full commercialization rights in certain smaller markets. BMS supplies the product to us at cost, plus a percentage of the net sales to end-customers in these markets. Eliquis is part of the Novel Oral

Anticoagulant (NOAC) market; the agents in this class were developed as alternative treatment options to warfarin in appropriate patients.

The growth in the U.S. in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 was primarily driven by volume growth from the launches of the UC indication in the third quarter of 2018 and PsA indication in the first quarter of 2018, as well as continued growth in the RA indication, partially offset by higher rebating and unfavorable channel mix in the second quarter and first six months of 2019.

The operational growth internationally in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 was primarily driven by continued uptake in the RA indication in developed Europe, emerging markets, Japan and Canada as well as from the recent launch of the UC indication in certain developed markets.

In July 2019, the FDA updated the U.S. prescribing information for Xeljanz to include two additional boxed warnings as well as changes to the indication and dosing for UC. These updates were based on the FDA’s review of data from the post-marketing requirement RA study A3921133. We expect these updates will have a negative effect on Xeljanz revenues for the remainder of 2019.

Worldwide operational revenues were relatively flat in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 due to continued volume growth in certain channels in the U.S., as well as in certain developed markets in Europe and Canada, offset by pricing pressures globally as well as competitive pressures internationally.

The growth in the U.S. in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 was primarily driven by demand in open systems, partially offset by price erosion. While Inflectra has achieved parity access to Remicade^® (infliximab) in Medicare Part B, nearly half of all commercial patients are not able to access Inflectra due to exclusionary contracting practices by J&J. In September 2017, Pfizer filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against J&J alleging that J&J’s exclusionary contracts and other anticompetitive practices concerning Remicade violate federal antitrust laws. In June 2019, Pfizer received a Civil Investigative Demand from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) seeking documents and information relating to the alleged conduct and market conditions at issue in Pfizer’s lawsuit against J&J.

In May 2012, the FDA’s Peripheral and Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee voted that the tafamidis meglumine data provide substantial evidence of efficacy for a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit. In June 2012, the FDA issued a “complete response” letter with respect to this tafamidis NDA. The FDA has requested the completion of a second efficacy study, and also has asked for additional information on the data within the current tafamidis NDA. Pfizer has completed study B3461028, a global Phase 3 study to support the new indication of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, which includes patients with wild type and variant transthyretin. We are working with the FDA to identify next steps.

In February 2019, the company took steps to transition rheumatoid arthritis study patients who were on tofacitinib 10 mg twice daily to tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily in the FDA post-marketing requirement study A3921133, a study performed in patients considered to be at high risk for certain side effects. This action was taken as the result of notification from the tofacitinib Rheumatology Data Safety Monitoring Board of a safety signal regarding the tofacitinib 10 mg twice daily treatment arm in study A3921133. The 5 mg twice daily dose is the FDA approved dose in the U.S. for adult patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. In July 2019, the FDA updated the U.S. prescribing information for Xeljanz to include two additional boxed warnings as well as changes to the indication and dosing for UC. These updates were based on the FDA’s review of data from the post-marketing requirement RA study A3921133. In addition, the EU product labeling (SmPC) for Xeljanz was updated in July 2019. This update is provisional, pending the outcome of the EMA’s risk/benefit review of Xeljanz, which is expected to take several months. Following the conclusion of that review, the current SmPC may be revised again, or confirmed.

^(a)

In August 2019, we announced that the rivipansel (GMI-1070) Phase 3 Rivipansel (GMI-1070): Evaluating Safety, Efficacy and Time to Discharge (RESET) pivotal study did not meet its primary or key secondary efficacy endpoints. The objective of the trial was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rivipansel in patients aged six and older with sickle cell disease who were hospitalized for a vaso-occlusive crisis and required treatment with IV opioids. The primary endpoint was time to readiness-for-discharge and the key secondary efficacy endpoints were time-to-discharge, cumulative IV opioid consumption, and time to discontinuation of IV opioids. Detailed analyses of the RESET study, including additional data on efficacy and safety endpoints, which are not available at this time, will be submitted for presentation at a future scientific meeting. We are awaiting additional data to determine next steps.

Additional product-related programs are in various stages of discovery and development.

As a percentage of Revenues	19.4		%	21.7		%			19.0		%	20.8		%

Cost of sales decreased $340 million, or 12%, in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to:


•	the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $176 million; and


•	the favorable impact of hedging activity on intercompany inventory of $91 million.

Cost of sales decreased $470 million, or 9%, in the first six months of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to:


•	the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $388 million; and


•	the favorable impact of hedging activity on intercompany inventory of $164 million,

partially offset by:


•	an unfavorable change in product mix.

The decrease in Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues in the second quarter and the first six months of 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, was primarily due to all of the factors discussed above, as well as an increase in alliance revenues, which have no associated cost of sales, and, for the first six months of 2019, a favorable change in product mix.

SI&A expenses decreased $31 million, or 1%, in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to:


•	the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $118 million; and


•	lower advertising, promotional and field force expenses in developed markets, primarily related to Lyrica in the U.S.,

partially offset by:


•	additional investment across several of our products, primarily Xeljanz and Chantix/Champix, and to support the Vyndaqel launches; and


•	additional investments in China.

SI&A expenses decreased $104 million, or 1%, in the first six months of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to:


•	the favorable impact of foreign exchange of $206 million;


•	lower advertising, promotional and field force expenses in developed markets, primarily related to Lyrica in the U.S.; and


•	the non-recurrence of a special, one-time bonus paid to virtually all Pfizer colleagues, excluding executives, of $119 million, in the aggregate, in the first quarter of 2018,

partially offset by:


•	additional investment across several of our key products, primarily Xeljanz and Chantix/Champix, and to support the Vyndaqel launches;


•	additional investments in China across key brands; and


•	the non-recurrence of a favorable true-up of healthcare reform expenses in the first quarter of 2018.

•	increased spending on our Inflammation & Immunology and Rare Disease portfolios due to several phase 3 programs and

investment in gene therapy; and


•	increased investments towards building new capabilities and driving automation,

partially offset by:


•	decreased spending across the Oncology, Vaccines and Internal Medicine portfolios, as select programs have reached completion;


•	the favorable impact of foreign exchange; and


•	the discontinuance of the Staphylococcus aureus vaccine trial.

Restructuring credits––acquisition-related costs include employee termination costs, asset impairments and other exit costs associated with business combinations. Credits for the second quarter and the first six months of 2019 were mostly due to the reversal of certain accruals related to our acquisition of Wyeth upon the effective favorable settlement of a U.S. IRS audit for multiple tax years. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5B. Tax Contingencies. Credits for the second quarter of 2018 were primarily due to the reversal of previously recorded accruals for employee termination costs related to our acquisition of Hospira and credits for the first six months of 2018 were mainly due to the reversal of previously recorded accruals for exit and employee termination costs related to our acquisition of Hospira.

^(b)

Restructuring charges/(credits)––cost reduction initiatives relate to employee termination costs, asset impairments and other exit costs not associated with acquisitions. For the second quarter of 2019, the charges were composed of employee termination costs and exit costs, partially offset by lower asset write downs, and for the first six months of 2019, the charges were mostly related to employee termination costs and exit costs. For the second quarter of 2018, the credits were mostly related to the reversal of previously recorded accruals for employee termination costs and, for the first six months of 2018, the credits were mainly related to the reversal of previously recorded accruals for employee termination costs and lower asset write downs, partially offset by exit costs.

2017-2019 Initiatives and Organizing for Growth

During 2018, as we reviewed our business opportunities and challenges and the way in which we think about our business operations, we determined that at the start of our 2019 fiscal year, we would begin operating under our new commercial structure, which reorganized our operations into three businesses––Biopharma, a science-based innovative medicines business; Upjohn, a global, primarily off-patent branded and generic established medicines business; and through July 31, 2019, a Consumer Healthcare business. To operate effectively in this structure and position ourselves for future growth, we are focused on creating a simpler, more efficient operating structure within each business as well as the functions that support them. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, we reviewed previously planned initiatives and new initiatives to ensure that there was alignment around our new structure and have combined the 2017-2019 initiatives with our current Organizing for Growth initiatives to form one cohesive plan. For the combined programs, to achieve targeted savings of approximately $1.9 billion, we expect to incur approximately $2.0 billion in costs over the three-year period 2017-2019, and approximately $500 million beyond 2019, primarily on manufacturing activities. Of the total $2.5 billion, we expect approximately 55% to be related to manufacturing operations, and we expect approximately 20% of the charges to be non-cash. We expect anticipated savings through 2020 associated with the Organizing for Growth initiatives of approximately $500 million will be reinvested in our R&D pipeline and in selling and marketing to support our current and recently launched products and indications. For additional information about these programs and expected and actual total costs, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 3. Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives.

In addition to these major initiatives, we continuously monitor our operations for cost reduction and/or productivity opportunities, especially in light of the losses of exclusivity and the expiration of collaborative arrangements for various products.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)

General Description of Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)

Adjusted income is an alternative view of performance used by management. We measure the performance of the overall Company on this basis in conjunction with other performance metrics. Because Adjusted income is an important internal measurement for Pfizer, we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this

performance measure. We report Adjusted income, certain components of Adjusted income, and Adjusted diluted earnings per share in order to portray the results of our major operations––the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of prescription medicines, vaccines and, through July 31, 2019, consumer healthcare (OTC) products––prior to considering certain income statement elements. We have defined Adjusted income as Net income attributable to Pfizer Inc. before the impact of purchase accounting for acquisitions, acquisition-related costs, discontinued operations and certain significant items, which are described below. Also, see the “Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)––General Description of Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)” section of our 2018 Financial Report for additional information. Similarly, we have defined the Adjusted income components as Cost of sales, Selling, informational and administrative expenses, Research and development expenses, Amortization of intangible assets and Other (income)/deductions––net each before the impact of purchase accounting for acquisitions, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. We have defined Adjusted diluted earnings per share as Earnings per common share attributable to Pfizer Inc.––diluted before the impact of purchase accounting for acquisitions, acquisition-related costs, discontinued operations and certain significant items. The Adjusted income measure, the Adjusted income component measures and the Adjusted diluted earnings per share measure are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income, U.S. GAAP net income components or U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share.

The following are examples of how the Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share measures are utilized:


•	senior management receives a monthly analysis of our operating results that is prepared on an Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share basis;


•	our annual budgets are prepared on an Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share basis; and


•	senior management’s annual compensation is derived, in part, using Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share measures.

See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)––General Description of Non-GAAP Financial Measure (Adjusted Income)” section of our 2018 Financial Report for additional information.

Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, are limited in their usefulness to investors. Because of their non-standardized definitions, Adjusted income and its components (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components) and Adjusted diluted earnings per share (unlike U.S. GAAP diluted earnings per share) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

We also recognize that, as internal measures of performance, the Adjusted income and its components and Adjusted diluted earnings per share measures have limitations, and we do not restrict our performance-management process solely to these metrics. A limitation of these measures is that they provide a view of our operations without including all events during a period, such as the effects of an acquisition or amortization of purchased intangibles, and do not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in the biopharmaceutical industry. We also use other specifically tailored tools designed to achieve the highest levels of performance. For example, our R&D organization has productivity targets, upon which its effectiveness is measured. In addition, total shareholder return, both on an absolute basis and relative to a publicly-traded pharmaceutical index, plays a significant role in determining payouts under certain of Pfizer’s long-term incentive compensation plans.

See the accompanying reconciliations of certain GAAP reported to non-GAAP adjusted information for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 and 2018 below.

Purchase Accounting Adjustments

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering certain significant purchase accounting impacts resulting from business combinations and net asset acquisitions. These impacts, primarily associated with Wyeth (acquired in 2009), Hospira (acquired in 2015), Anacor (acquired in June 2016) and Medivation (acquired in September 2016), can include the incremental charge to cost of sales from the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value, amortization related to the increase in fair value of the acquired finite-lived intangible assets, and to a much lesser extent, depreciation related to the increase/decrease in fair value of the acquired fixed assets (primarily manufacturing facilities), amortization related to the increase in fair value of acquired debt, and the fair value changes associated with contingent consideration. Therefore, the Adjusted income measure includes the revenues earned upon the sale of the acquired products without considering the acquisition cost of those products.

Acquisition-Related Costs

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering transaction, integration, restructuring and additional depreciation costs associated with business combinations because these costs are unique to each transaction and represent costs that were incurred

to restructure and integrate two businesses as a result of the acquisition decision. For additional clarity, only transaction costs, additional depreciation and restructuring and integration activities that are associated with a business combination or a net-asset acquisition are included in acquisition-related costs. We have made no adjustments for the resulting synergies.

Discontinued Operations

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering the results of operations included in discontinued operations, as well as any related gains or losses on the disposal of such operations.

Certain Significant Items

Adjusted income is calculated prior to considering certain significant items. Certain significant items represent substantive and/or unusual items that are evaluated on an individual basis. Such evaluation considers both the quantitative and the qualitative aspects of their nature. Certain significant items may be highly variable and difficult to predict. Furthermore, in some cases it is reasonably possible that they could reoccur in future periods. For example, major non-acquisition-related cost-reduction programs stand on their own as they are specific to an event or goal with a defined term, but we may have subsequent programs based on reorganizations of the business, cost productivity or in response to loss of exclusivity or economic conditions. Legal charges to resolve litigation are also related to specific cases, which are facts and circumstances specific and, in some cases, may also be the result of litigation matters at acquired companies that were inestimable, not probable or unresolved at the date of acquisition. Unusual items may represent items that are not part of our ongoing business; items that, either as a result of their nature or size, we would not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis; items that would be non-recurring; or items that relate to products we no longer sell. While not all-inclusive, examples of items that could be included as certain significant items would be a major non-acquisition-related restructuring charge and associated implementation costs; amounts related to certain disposals of businesses, products or facilities that do not qualify as discontinued operations under U.S. GAAP; certain intangible asset impairments; adjustments related to the resolution of certain tax positions; the impact of adopting certain significant, event-driven tax legislation, such as the TCJA discussed in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5A. Tax Matters: Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations; or charges related to certain legal matters, such as certain of those discussed in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12A. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Normal, ongoing defense costs of the Company or settlements of and accruals for legal matters made in the normal course of our business would not be considered certain significant items.

Beginning in 2019, we exclude the net gains and losses on investments in equity securities from our measure of Adjusted income because of their inherent volatility, which we do not control and cannot predict with any level of certainty and because we do not believe that including these gains and losses assists investors in understanding our business or is reflective of our core operations and business. We have revised Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted EPS for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 to conform with our 2019 presentation.

^(a)	For details of adjustments, see “Details of Income Statement Items Included in GAAP Reported but Excluded from Non-GAAP Adjusted Income” below.

^(b)

The effective tax rate on Non-GAAP Adjusted income was 16.9% in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 16.1% in the second quarter of 2018. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in tax benefits associated with the resolution of certain tax positions pertaining to prior years primarily with foreign tax authorities, partially offset by the favorable change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business. The effective tax rate on Non-GAAP Adjusted income was 16.0% in the first six months of 2019, compared to 16.4% in the first six months of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a favorable change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings as a result of operating fluctuations in the normal course of business, partially offset by the decrease in tax benefits associated with the resolution of certain tax positions pertaining to prior years primarily with foreign tax authorities.

⁽ⁱ⁾

WRDM—the R&D and Medical expenses managed by our WRDM organization, which is generally responsible for research projects for our Biopharma portfolio until proof-of-concept is achieved and then for transitioning those projects to the GPD organization for possible clinical and commercial development. R&D spending may include upfront and milestone payments for intellectual property rights. The WRDM organization also has responsibility for certain science-based and other platform-services organizations, which provide end-to-end technical expertise and other services to the various R&D projects, as well as the Worldwide Medical and Safety group, which ensures that Pfizer provides all stakeholders––including patients, healthcare providers, pharmacists, payers and health authorities––with complete and up-to-date information on the risks and benefits associated with Pfizer products so that they can make appropriate decisions on how and when to use Pfizer’s medicines.


⁽ⁱⁱ⁾	GPD––the costs associated with our GPD organization, which is generally responsible for clinical trials from WRDM in the Biopharma portfolio, including late stage portfolio spend. GPD also provides technical support and other services to Pfizer R&D projects. GPD is responsible for facilitating all regulatory submissions and interactions with regulatory agencies.


⁽ⁱⁱⁱ⁾	Other—the operating results of our Consumer Healthcare business, and costs associated with other commercial activities not managed as part of Biopharma or Upjohn, including all strategy, business development, portfolio management and valuation capabilities, which previously had been reported in various parts of the organization.

^(iv)

manufacturing (which include manufacturing variances associated with production) and commercial operations that are not directly assessed to an operating segment, as business unit (segment) management does not manage these costs.

We recognized the following amounts as an offset to Cost of sales primarily related to euro-denominated forward-exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges of a portion of our foreign exchange-denominated forecasted intercompany inventory sales:


•	a $59 million gain in the second quarter of 2019;


•	a $103 million gain in the first six months of 2019;


•	a $32 million loss in the second quarter of 2018; and


•	a $61 million loss in the first six months of 2018.

For information purposes only, the following tables present reconciliations of the Biopharma segment operating results and Upjohn segment operating results to Biopharma and Upjohn operating results including estimated Other costs generally associated with the Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments. While we do not manage our segments or have performance goals under such an allocated manner, we believe that some investors may find this information useful in their analyses.

The estimated Other costs generally associated with our operating segments do not purport to reflect the additional amounts that each of our operating segments would have incurred had each segment operated as a standalone company during the periods presented.

For information purposes only, for the first six months of 2019, we estimate that Other costs attributable to our Biopharma and Upjohn segments, as described above, for combined WRDM, GPD and other business activities costs are $2.9 billion, and combined Corporate and Other Unallocated costs are $2.2 billion, which excludes income and costs associated with our Consumer Healthcare business. The combined Corporate and Other Unallocated costs also exclude (i) net interest-related expense not attributable to an operating segment included in Corporate (approximately $633 million for the first six months of 2019 in Other (income)/deductions––net); and (ii) net income from investments and other assets not attributable to an operating segment included in Corporate (approximately $112 million for the first six months of 2019 in Other (income)/deductions––net). The remaining costs have been attributed to our Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments, as follows:

WRDM/GPD/Other Business Activities––The information provided for WRDM, GPD and Other Business Activities was substantially all derived from our estimates of the costs incurred in connection with the R&D projects associated with the Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments as well as specific identification and estimates of costs incurred in connection with activities associated with the Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments.

•

Corporate/Other Unallocated––The information provided for Corporate and Other Unallocated was derived mainly using proportional allocation methods based on global, regional or country revenues or global, regional or country headcount, as well as certain cost metrics, as appropriate, such as those derived from research and development and manufacturing costs, and, to a lesser extent, specific identification and estimates. Management believes that the allocations of Corporate and Other Unallocated costs are reasonable.

The estimated Other costs generally associated with our Biopharma and Upjohn operating segments do not purport to reflect the additional amounts that each of the operating segments would have incurred had each segment operated as a standalone company during the period presented.

Second Quarter of 2019 vs. Second Quarter of 2018

Biopharma Operating Segment

Revenues

Biopharma Revenues increased $160 million, or 2%, to $9.6 billion, reflecting an operational increase of $551 million, or 6%, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $390 million, or 4%.

The following provides an analysis of the increase in Biopharma worldwide Revenues:



(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)
Biopharma Revenues, for the three months ended July 1, 2018	$	9,434

Operational growth/(decline):
Continued worldwide growth from certain key brands^(a)	675
Growth from Biosimilars, primarily in the U.S.	38
Lower revenues for Enbrel internationally, reflecting continued biosimilar competition in most developed Europe markets	(87		)
Lower revenues for the Hospital products business, primarily reflecting declines in developed markets, mostly due to the continued expected negative impact from generic competition for products that have previously lost marketing exclusivity as well as product supply shortages	(86		)
Lower revenues for certain rare disease products, including the hemophilia franchises (Refacto AF/Xyntha and BeneFIX), primarily due to competitive pressures, and Genotropin in developed markets, mainly due to unfavorable channel mix	(43		)
Lower revenues for Prevnar 13 in the U.S., primarily reflecting lower government purchases for the pediatric indication as well as continued decline in revenues for the adult indication due to a declining “catch up” opportunity compared to the prior year quarter. International revenues increased mostly due to higher volumes reflecting continued uptake following the second quarter 2017 launch in China, as well as higher volumes resulting from increased shipments associated with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of timing associated with government purchases for the pediatric indication in certain emerging markets	(38		)
Other operational factors, net	92
Operational growth, net	551
Unfavorable impact of foreign exchange	(390		)
Biopharma Revenues increase	160
Biopharma Revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2019	$	9,595


^(a)	Certain key brands represent Ibrance, Eliquis and Xeljanz. See the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income––Revenues––Selected Product Discussion” section of this MD&A for product analysis information.

Total Biopharma revenues from emerging markets increased $31 million, or 2%, to $2.0 billion from $1.9 billion, reflecting 12% operational growth. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact of 10% on total Biopharma revenues from emerging markets. The operational increase in emerging markets was primarily driven by Ibrance, Eliquis and Prevenar 13.

Costs and Expenses


•	Cost of sales as a percentage of Revenues decreased 1 percentage point primarily driven by a favorable change in product mix, which includes an increase in alliance revenue which has no associated cost of sales.


•	The decrease in Cost of sales of 2% was mainly driven by the favorable impact of foreign exchange, partially offset by an unfavorable change in product mix, an increase in royalty expenses based on the mix of products sold and an increase in sales volumes for various products within our product portfolio.


•	The increase in Selling, informational and administrative expenses of 1% was mostly driven by additional investment across several of our products, primarily Chantix/Champix as well as to support the Vyndaqel launches, partially offset by the favorable impact of foreign exchange.


•	Research and development expenses were relatively flat.


•	The unfavorable change in Other (income)/deductions––net primarily reflects an $86 million decrease in income from collaborations, out-licensing arrangements and sales of compound/product rights, partially offset by an increase in royalty-related income mainly due to a one-time favorable resolution in the second quarter of 2019 of a legal dispute for $82 million.

Upjohn Operating Segment

Revenues

Upjohn Revenues decreased $339 million, or 11%, to $2.8 billion, reflecting an operational decrease of $235 million, or 7%, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $105 million, or 3%.

The following provides an analysis of the decrease in Upjohn worldwide Revenues:



(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)
Upjohn Revenues, for the three months ended July 1, 2018	$	3,147

Operational growth/(decline):
Decline from Lipitor and Norvasc, primarily in China, driven by the March 2019 government implementation of a volume-based procurement program in certain cities	(131		)
Lower revenues for Viagra and Upjohn's authorized generic for Viagra in the U.S. resulting from increased generic competition following Viagra's December 2017 patent expiration	(70		)
Lower worldwide revenues for Lyrica, primarily in the U.S., reflecting wholesaler destocking in advance of anticipated multi-source generic competition expected to begin on July 1, 2019 (which instead began on July 19, 2019), and in developed Europe, reflecting continued generic competition	(31		)
Volume-driven growth from Celebrex and Effexor, primarily in Japan	31
Other operational factors, net	(34		)
Operational decline, net	(235		)
Unfavorable impact of foreign exchange	(105		)
Upjohn Revenues decrease	(339		)
Upjohn Revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2019	$	2,807

Total Upjohn revenues from emerging markets decreased $177 million, or 17%, to $851 million from $1.0 billion, reflecting an 11% operational decline. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact of 6% on total Upjohn revenues from emerging markets. The operational decrease in emerging markets was primarily driven by Lipitor and Norvasc.

Costs and Expenses


•	Cost of sales as a percentage of Revenues decreased 1.1 percentage points and Cost of sales as compared to the prior year period decreased 17% driven by a decrease in royalty expense, the favorable impact of foreign exchange and lower atorvastatin active product ingredients import duties in China.


•	Selling, informational and administrative expenses increased 3% mostly driven by non-recurrence of a one-time general and administrative expense reversal in the second quarter of 2018, partially offset by a reduction in field force and advertising and promotion expenses in developed markets, primarily related to Lyrica in the U.S., and the favorable impact of foreign exchange.


•	Research and development expenses and Other (income)/deductions––net were relatively unchanged.

Consumer Healthcare Operating Segment

Consumer Healthcare Revenues decreased $23 million, or 3%, to $862 million, reflecting an operational increase of $8 million, or 1%, and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange of $32 million, or 4%.

ANALYSIS OF THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS



	Six Months Ended
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS)	June 30, 2019			July 1, 2018			% Change
Cash provided by/(used in):
Operating activities	$	4,309		$	5,830		(26	)
Investing activities	5,648			8,193			(31	)
Financing activities	(9,318		)	(12,628		)	(26	)
Effect of exchange-rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents	(28		)	(15		)	83
Net increase in Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents	$	612		$	1,381		(56	)

Operating Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $4.3 billion in the first six months of 2019, compared to $5.8 billion in the same period in 2018. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities reflects the timing of receipts from customers and payments to vendors in the ordinary course of business, partially offset by an increase in net income and a decrease in benefit plan contributions.

In the first six months of 2019, the change in the line item Other adjustments, net primarily reflects, among other items:


•	a reduction in net unrealized gains on equity securities; and


•	the non-recurrence of a non-cash gain on the contribution of Pfizer’s allogeneic CAR T developmental program assets, in connection with our contribution agreement with Allogene in 2018,

partially offset by:


•	net gains on foreign exchange contracts hedging a portion of our forecasted intercompany inventory sales (that fixes the cost of inventory sold later to customers).

In the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the line item Other changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures is presented excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as these changes do not reflect actual cash inflows or outflows, and excluding any other significant non-cash movements. Accordingly, the amounts shown will not necessarily agree with the changes in the assets and liabilities that are presented in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the first six months of 2019 and 2018, the line item Other changes in assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions and divestitures, primarily reflects changes, in the normal course of business, in trade accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets, other noncurrent assets, trade accounts payable, accrued compensation, other current and noncurrent liabilities, as well as the adjustment necessary to reflect the non-cash nature of a favorable settlement of a U.S. IRS audit for multiple tax years (see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5A. Tax Matters: Taxes on Income from Continuing Operations).

For additional information about changes in other assets and liabilities account balances, see the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets” in this MD&A.

Investing Activities

Our net cash provided by investing activities was $5.6 billion in the first six months of 2019, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $8.2 billion in the same period in 2018. The decrease in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily attributable to a decrease in net proceeds generated from the sale of investments of $2.2 billion in the first six months of 2019 for cash needs.

Financing Activities

Our net cash used by financing activities was $9.3 billion in the first six months of 2019, compared to $12.6 billion in the same period in 2018. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to:


•	the issuance of long-term debt of $4.9 billion in the first six months of 2019, with no corresponding issuance of debt in the first six months of 2018 (see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 7D. Financial Instruments: Long-Term Debt); and


•	$4.3 billion net proceeds raised from short-term borrowings in the first six months of 2019, compared to net proceeds of $0.9 billion in the first six months of 2018,

partially offset by:


•	higher purchases of common stock of $2.8 billion;


•	higher repayments on long-term debt of $2.3 billion; and


•	lower proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $226 million.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We rely largely on operating cash flows, short-term investments, short-term commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt to provide for our liquidity requirements. We continue our efforts to improve cash inflows through working capital efficiencies. We target specific areas of focus including accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable, and other working capital, which allows us to optimize our operating cash flows. Due to our significant operating cash flows as well as our financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we believe that we have, and will maintain, the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, which include:


•	the working capital requirements of our operations, including our R&D activities;


•	investments in our business;


•	dividend payments and potential increases in the dividend rate;


•	share repurchases;


•	the cash requirements associated with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives;


•	paying down outstanding debt;


•	contributions to our pension and postretirement plans; and


•	business-development activities.

Our long-term debt is rated high-quality by both S&P and Moody’s. See the “Credit Ratings” section below. As market conditions change, we continue to monitor our liquidity position. We have taken and will continue to take a conservative approach to our financial investments. Both short-term and long-term investments consist primarily of high-quality, highly liquid, well-diversified available-for-sale debt securities.

Selected Measures of Liquidity and Capital Resources



The following table provides certain relevant measures of our liquidity and capital resources:
(MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, EXCEPT RATIOS AND PER COMMON SHARE DATA)	June 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Selected financial assets^(a):
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,784		$	1,139
Short-term investments	11,128			17,694
Long-term investments	2,905			2,767
	15,817			21,600
Debt:
Short-term borrowings, including current portion of long-term debt	10,507			8,831
Long-term debt	36,168			32,909
	46,675			41,740
Selected net financial liabilities^(b)	$	(30,857	)	$	(20,140	)

Working capital^(c)	$	15,043		$	18,068
Ratio of current assets to current liabilities	1.47:1			1.57:1
Total Pfizer Inc. shareholders’ equity per common share^(d)	$	10.71		$	11.09


^(a)	See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 7. Financial Instruments for a description of certain assets held and for a description of credit risk related to our financial instruments held.

^(b)

The increase in selected net financial liabilities was primarily driven by the decrease in short-term investments used for cash needs and the net increase in long-term debt. We retain a strong financial liquidity position as a result of our net cash provided by operating activities, our high-quality financial asset portfolio and access to capital markets. For additional information, see the “Credit Ratings” section of this MD&A.


^(c)	The decrease in working capital was primarily due to:


•	a decrease in Short-term investments mainly driven by the financing requirements for share repurchase activities, dividend payments, capital expenditures and debt repayment, partially offset by operating cash flow generation, cash from employee stock option exercises and the long-term debt issuance;


•	an increase in short-term borrowings as a result of the issuance of commercial paper; and


•	the net impact of foreign currency exchange,

partially offset by:


•	the timing of accruals, cash receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business; and


•	an increase in inventory related to increases for certain products to meet targeted levels in the normal course of business, including inventory build for supply recovery and market demand.


^(d)	Represents total Pfizer Inc. shareholders’ equity divided by the actual number of common shares outstanding (which excludes treasury stock).

In March 2019, we completed a public offering of $5.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes (see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 7D. Financial Instruments: Long-Term Debt).

For additional information about the sources and uses of our funds, see the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets” and the “Analysis of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows” sections of this MD&A.

Domestic and International Selected Financial Assets

Many of our operations are conducted outside the U.S., and significant portions of our selected financial assets are held internationally. The amount of funds held in U.S. tax jurisdictions can fluctuate due to the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business and due to other reasons, such as business-development activities. As part of our ongoing liquidity assessments, we regularly monitor the mix of domestic and international cash flows (both inflows and outflows). The changes in tax law under the TCJA, which includes transitioning U.S. international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system, will also allow us to more easily access our selected financial assets globally. The majority of our cash we held internationally as of year-end 2017 was repatriated in 2018.

Agreement to Combine Upjohn with Mylan

In connection with the recently-announced agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan discussed in the “Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––Our Business”and “––Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” sections of this MD&A, Upjohn will incur $12 billion of debt prior to the closing of the transaction. Immediately prior to the separation, Upjohn will make a cash distribution of $12 billion to Pfizer, which will be funded by the proceeds of such debt. Following the separation, Upjohn will remain the obligor with respect to the debt.

Credit Ratings

Two major corporate debt-rating organizations, Moody’s and S&P, assign ratings to our short-term and long-term debt. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and the rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating.

In June 2019, S&P placed Pfizer on “CreditWatch Negative” following the announcement of Pfizer’s intention to acquire Array, with the expectation that the CreditWatch placement would be resolved with a one-notch downgrade of Pfizer’s debt rating to ‘AA-’ upon the consummation of the transaction. In July 2019, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan, which resulted in actions from both Moody’s and S&P. Moody’s placed Pfizer’s long-term rating under review for downgrade (limited to one-notch, or ‘A2’ upon close of the Mylan transaction) while S&P lowered Pfizer’s rating to ‘AA-’ (as a result of the Array transaction) and confirmed it will still remain on CreditWatch Negative (with the expectation the rating will be lowered one additional notch to ‘A+’ upon close of the Mylan transaction).



The following table provides the current ratings assigned by these rating agencies to our commercial paper and senior unsecured long-term debt:
NAME OF RATING AGENCY	Pfizer Commercial Paper	Pfizer Long-Term Debt	Outlook/Watch	Date of Last Rating Change
NAME OF RATING AGENCY	Rating	Rating	Outlook/Watch	Date of Last Rating Change
Moody’s	P-1	A1	Under Review for Downgrade	October 2009
S&P	A-1+	AA-	CreditWatch Negative	July 2019

Debt Capacity––Lines of Credit

We have available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements with a group of banks and other financial intermediaries. We typically maintain cash and cash equivalent balances and short-term investments in excess of our commercial paper and other short-term borrowings. As of June 30, 2019, we had access to a $7.0 billion U.S. revolving credit facility expiring in 2023, which may be used to support our commercial paper borrowings. In addition to the U.S. revolving credit facility, our lenders have provided us an additional $536 million lines of credit, of which $508 million expire within one year. Of these total lines of credit, $7.5 billion were unused as of June 30, 2019. In connection with the recently-announced agreement to combine Upjohn with Mylan discussed in the “Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––Our Business” and “––Our Strategy––Our Business Development Initiatives” sections of this MD&A, Upjohn entered into a $12 billion fully underwritten bridge facility. This bridge facility is fully committed financing that is expected to terminate upon the issuance of $12 billion of debt by Upjohn prior to the transaction close.

LIBOR

From time to time, we issue variable rate debt based on LIBOR, or undertake interest rate swaps that contain a variable element based on LIBOR. Banks currently reporting information used to set LIBOR will stop doing so after 2021. Various parties, including government agencies, are seeking to identify an alternative rate to replace LIBOR. We are monitoring their efforts, and we will likely amend contracts to accommodate any replacement rate where it is not already provided.

Global Economic Conditions––General

The global economic environment has not had, nor do we anticipate it will have, a material impact on our liquidity or capital resources. Due to our significant operating cash flows, financial assets, access to capital markets and available lines of credit and revolving credit agreements, we continue to believe that we have, and will maintain, the ability to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. We monitor our liquidity position continuously in the face of evolving economic conditions. For additional information see the “Overview of Our Performance, Operating Environment, Strategy and Outlook––Our Operating Environment––The Global Economic Environment” section in this MD&A.

Global Economic Conditions––Venezuela Operations

Our Venezuela operations continue to operate with the U.S. dollar as the functional currency due to the hyperinflationary status of the Venezuelan economy. Future actions by the Venezuelan government in response to economic uncertainties could impact the recoverability of our investment in Venezuela, which could result in an impairment charge and, under extreme circumstances, could impact our ability to continue to operate in the country in the same manner as we have historically. The impact to Pfizer is not considered material.

Global Economic Conditions––Argentina Operations

Our Argentina operations function in a hyperinflationary economy. The impact to Pfizer is not considered material.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business and in connection with the sale of assets and businesses and other transactions, we often indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with a transaction or that are related to events and activities prior to or following a transaction. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we may be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnification obligations generally are subject to various restrictions and limitations. Historically, we have not paid significant amounts under these provisions and, as of June 30, 2019, the estimated fair value of our indemnity obligations was not significant.

Certain of our co-promotion or license agreements give our licensors or partners the rights to negotiate for, or in some cases to obtain under certain financial conditions, co-promotion or other rights in specified countries with respect to certain of our products.

Share-Purchase Plans and Accelerated Share Repurchase Agreements

Our December 2017 $10 billion share repurchase program was exhausted in the first quarter of 2019.

In December 2018, the Board of Directors authorized a new $10 billion share repurchase program to be utilized over time (the 2018 program) and share repurchases commenced thereunder in the first quarter of 2019.

100

On February 7, 2019, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement with GS&Co. to repurchase approximately $6.8 billion of our common stock. For additional information, see Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12C. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Certain Commitments and “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds––Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” in Part II, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

After giving effect to the accelerated share repurchase agreement and other share repurchases through June 30, 2019, our remaining share-purchase authorization was approximately $5.3 billion on June 30, 2019.

Dividends on Common Stock

In June 2019, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.36 per share, payable on September 3, 2019, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 2, 2019.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 1B. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies: Adoption of New Accounting Standards.



Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Adopted as of June 30, 2019
Standard/Description	Effective Date	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for credit losses of financial instruments. The new guidance replaces the probable initial recognition threshold for incurred loss estimates in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit loss estimates.	January 1, 2020. Earlier application is permitted as of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year.	We are assessing the impact of the provisions of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. This standard includes our financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, and investments that are generally of high credit quality. Previously, when credit losses were measured under GAAP, an entity generally only considered past events and current conditions in measuring the incurred loss. The new guidance requires us to identify, analyze, document and support new methodologies for quantifying expected credit loss estimates for our financial instruments, using information such as historical experience and current economic conditions, plus the use of reasonable supportable forecast information.
In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance for goodwill impairment testing. The new guidance eliminates the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. Under the new guidance the goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, although it cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.	January 1, 2020. Earlier application is permitted.	We do not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance related to customers’ accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is considered a service contract. The new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in such arrangements with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The new guidance can be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively.	January 1, 2020. Earlier application is permitted.	We are assessing the impact of the provisions of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2018, the FASB issued new guidance clarifying the interaction between the accounting guidance for collaboration agreements and revenue from contracts with customers.	January 1, 2020. Earlier application is permitted	We have assessed the impact of the provisions of this new guidance and do not expect it will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

•

the risk we may not be able to successfully address all of the comments received from regulatory authorities such as the FDA or the EMA, or obtain approval from regulators, which will depend on myriad factors, including such regulator making a determination as to whether a product’s benefits outweigh its known risks and a determination of the product’s efficacy; regulatory decisions impacting labeling, manufacturing processes, safety and/or other matters; and recommendations by technical or advisory committees, such as ACIP, that may impact the use of our vaccines;


•	the speed with which regulatory authorizations, pricing approvals and product launches may be achieved;

103


•	the outcome of post-approval clinical trials, which could result in the loss of marketing approval, changes in product labeling, and/or new or increased concerns about the side effects or efficacy of, a product that could affect its availability or commercial potential, such as the update to the U.S. prescribing information for Xeljanz and Xeljanz extended release;

•

the success of external business-development activities, including the ability to identify and execute on potential business development opportunities, the ability to satisfy the conditions to closing of announced transactions in the anticipated time frame or at all, the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of any such transactions, and the potential need to obtain additional equity or debt financing to pursue these opportunities, which could result in increased leverage and impact our credit ratings;


•	competitive developments, including the impact on our competitive position of new product entrants, in-line branded products, generic products, private label products, biosimilars and product candidates that treat diseases and conditions similar to those treated by our in-line drugs and drug candidates;

•

risks related to our ability to develop and launch biosimilars, including risks associated with “at risk” launches, defined as the marketing of a product by Pfizer before the final resolution of litigation (including any appeals) brought by a third party alleging that such marketing would infringe one or more patents owned or controlled by the third party, and access challenges for our biosimilar products where our product may not receive appropriate formulary access or remains in a disadvantaged position relative to the innovator product;


•	the ability to meet competition from generic, branded and biosimilar products after the loss or expiration of patent protection for our products or competitor products;


•	the ability to successfully market both new and existing products domestically and internationally;


•	difficulties or delays in manufacturing, including delays caused by natural events, such as hurricanes; supply shortages at our facilities; and legal or regulatory actions, such as warning letters, suspension of manufacturing, seizure of product, injunctions, debarment, voluntary recall of a product or failure to secure product approvals;


•	trade buying patterns;


•	the impact of existing and future legislation and regulatory provisions on product exclusivity;


•	trends toward managed care and healthcare cost containment, and our ability to obtain or maintain timely or adequate pricing or favorable formulary placement for our products;

We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized. Achievement of anticipated results is subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. Investors should bear this in mind as they consider forward-looking statements, and are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law or by the rules and regulations of the SEC. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects.

Additional discussion regarding certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions described above, as well as other material risks to our business, is included under the heading entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. of our 2018 Form 10-K.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.

During our most recent fiscal quarter, there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The information required by this Item is incorporated herein by reference to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 12A. Contingencies and Certain Commitments: Legal Proceedings in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Tax Matters

Additional information with respect to tax matters required by this Item is incorporated herein by reference to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements––Note 5B. Tax Matters: Tax Contingencies in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We account for income tax contingencies using a benefit recognition model. If our initial assessment fails to result in the recognition of a tax benefit, we regularly monitor our position and subsequently recognize the tax benefit: (i) if there are changes in tax law, analogous case law or there is new information that sufficiently raise the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of the position to “more likely than not” (ii) if the statute of limitations expires; or (iii) if there is a completion of an audit resulting in a favorable settlement of that tax year with the appropriate agency. We regularly re-evaluate our tax positions based on the results of audits of federal, state and foreign income tax filings, statute of limitations expirations, changes in tax law or receipt of new information that would either increase or decrease the technical merits of a position relative to the “more-likely-than-not” standard.

Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but our estimates of unrecognized tax benefits and potential tax benefits may not be representative of actual outcomes, and variation from such estimates could materially affect our financial statements in the period of settlement or when the statutes of limitations expire, as we treat these events as discrete items in the period of resolution. Finalizing audits with the relevant taxing authorities can include formal administrative and legal proceedings, and, as a result, it is difficult to estimate the timing and range of possible changes related to our uncertain tax positions, and such changes could be significant.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We refer to the “Our Operating Environment” and “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” sections of the MD&A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2018 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes from the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2018 Form 10-K.
