RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION On October 31, 2006, the Perrigo Company released earnings for the first quarter and fiscal year 2007. The earnings release contains non-GAAP measures which are defined as a financial measure of the Company's performance that excludes or includes amounts thereby differentiating it from the most directly comparable measure presented in the financial statements that are calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation for gross profit, operating income, net income and earnings per share within its earnings release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure for these non-GAAP measures. The Company excludes a fiscal 2006 write-off of the step-up in value of inventory acquired when monitoring and evaluating the on-going financial results and trends of its business due to the non-recurring nature of this item. The Company believes this information is also useful for investors since excluding this non-recurring item provides important insight into the Company's on-going operations. The press release related to Perrigo's earnings is attached as Exhibit 99. The information in this Report is being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.
