improvement and Gillette acquisition benefits.


       “This was another solid quarter of broad-based sales and earnings growth during a
period of heavy Gillette integration activity,” said Chairman of the Board, President and Chief
Executive A.G. Lafley. “The results this quarter and a positive outlook for sales and margin
improvement give us confidence to raise our top and bottom line guidance for the fiscal year.”

Key Financial Highlights


         Net sales for the quarter increased eight percent to $19.73 billion. Every reportable
segment grew sales led by double-digit increases in Blades & Razors and in Fabric Care &
Home Care. Sales increased behind solid market share growth and continued success on
product initiatives including Gillette Fusion, Tide Simple Pleasures, Febreze Noticeables, Olay
Definity, Pantene Color Expressions, Head & Shoulders restage and Crest Pro Health. Volume
increased four percent and organic volume, which excludes the impacts of acquisitions and
divestitures, increased five percent during the quarter. Pricing added one percent to sales
growth and favorable foreign exchange added an additional three percent. Organic sales, which
exclude the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange, increased five percent.


         Net earnings during the quarter increased 12 percent to $2.86 billion. Net earnings were
up behind sales growth and operating margin improvements. Operating profit margin increased
90-basis points due to gross margin expansion and lower selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales. Diluted net earnings per share increased 17 percent to
$0.84.


         Gross margin increased 50-basis points to 52.9% of net sales during the quarter.
Commodity costs had a negative impact on gross margin of about 80-basis points.               Scale
leverage from volume growth, price increases and cost savings projects more than offset the
commodity cost impact.


         Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were 30.9% of net sales, 30-basis
points lower than the prior year period. SG&A improved primarily due to Gillette synergies,
which drove overhead expenses down as a percentage of net sales versus the year-ago period.


         Operating cash flow was $2.45 billion during the quarter driven by strong earnings,
partially offset by an increase in working capital.      Accounts receivable increased due to
business growth, holiday seasonality and temporary impacts related to the Gillette integration.
Free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, was $1.78 billion
during the quarter. Free cash flow productivity was 62% during the quarter and 75% fiscal year-
to-date. The company continues to expect free cash flow productivity to be at or above its 90%
target for the fiscal year. Capital expenditures were 3.4% of net sales during the quarter.

Business Segment Discussion


       The following provides perspective on the company’s October - December quarter
results by business segment.


Beauty and Health
•   Beauty net sales increased eight percent during the quarter to $5.88 billion driven by solid
    volume growth across most categories. Organic sales increased five percent, despite a
    negative impact from sales disruptions to the SK-II franchise in Asia. Volume was up four
    percent and organic volume increased five percent behind mid-single digit organic volume
    growth in Hair Care, Skin Care and Feminine Care and high-single digit organic growth in
    Prestige fragrances. Volume growth was driven by continued successful initiative activity
    including Pantene Color Expressions, Head & Shoulders and Herbal Essences restages,
    Olay Definity and Regenerist, Always Clean, Tampax Pearl product upgrades and the Dolce
    & Gabbana “The One” launch. Favorable product mix drove a positive one percent sales
    impact while favorable foreign exchange trends added an additional three percent to sales
    growth. Net earnings grew 19 percent to $1.01 billion behind sales growth and margin
    improvement. Profit margin increased 150-basis points behind improved gross margin from
    a more profitable product mix and lower overhead expenses as a percentage of net sales.


•   Health Care net sales increased seven percent to $2.36 billion during the quarter. Volume
    grew two percent, while organic volume was up three percent. Pricing contributed two
    percent to segment sales growth and favorable product mix added one percent. Foreign
    exchange had a two percent impact on sales growth. Pharmaceuticals and Personal Health
    sales increased high-single digits behind mid-single digit volume growth. Prilosec OTC had
    a strong quarter with market share up over two share points versus year ago. Volume on
    Prilosec OTC was up double-digits behind the market share growth and a low base period
    comparison. Oral Care sales increased mid-single digits globally behind double-digit growth
    in developing regions. Health Care net earnings grew 22 percent to $472 million. Profit
    margin improved 250-basis points due to a more profitable product mix, lower product costs
    on Prilosec OTC and Gillette synergies.


Household Care
•   Fabric Care and Home Care net sales increased 11 percent during the quarter to $4.68
    billion behind eight percent volume growth. Volume was up double-digits in Home Care and
    high-single digits in Fabric Care behind the continued success of recent initiatives including

                                                3
Tide Simple Pleasures, Gain Joyful Expressions, several Swiffer restages, Febreze
    Noticeables, Cascade Action Packs and the Fairy Auto Dish expansion in Western Europe.
    Previously executed price increases contributed one percent to sales growth while favorable
    foreign exchange had a two percent impact. Net earnings increased nine percent to $673
    million. Profit margin was down 20-basis points as scale benefits of volume growth, lower
    overhead expenses as a percentage of net sales and manufacturing cost savings projects
    were offset by higher commodity costs.


•   Baby Care and Family Care net sales increased five percent to $3.12 billion during the
    quarter. Volume grew two percent behind mid-single digit growth in Baby Care. Baby care
    volume increased high-single digits in developing regions behind strong market share
    growth in Greater China and in Central and Eastern Europe. In developed regions, Baby
    Care volume was up low-single digits. Pampers results were solid in North America due to
    continued growth of Baby Stages of Development and the Caterpillar stretch initiative on
    Pampers Baby Dry. This growth was partially offset by soft results on Pampers in Western
    Europe and Luvs in North America caused by low pricing of both branded and private label
    competitors.   Family Care organic volume was up low-single digits on growth in North
    America, led by strong results on Charmin and Bounty Basics. Pricing in North America
    Family Care added one point to segment sales growth and favorable foreign exchange had
    a two percent impact on sales growth.        Net earnings in Baby Care and Family Care
    increased three percent to $341 million as topline growth more than offset higher commodity
    costs.


•   Snacks, Coffee and Pet Care net sales increased three percent during the quarter to $1.25
    billion. Volume was up one percent behind mid-single digit growth on Coffee, partially offset
    by a decline on Pet Care. Coffee volume grew as a result of a base period that included
    impacts from Hurricane Katrina and behind solid results on Folgers Simply Smooth and
    Gourmet Selections. Snacks volume was in-line with the prior year period as strong results
    on the Pringles Minis and Gourmet initiatives were offset by a four percent contraction in the
    North America chips market and heavy competitive merchandising activity. Disproportionate
    Coffee growth and favorable product mix in Snacks drove a positive one percent mix impact
    while favorable foreign exchange added one percent to sales. Net earnings increased 34
    percent to $150 million during the quarter. Earnings increased due primarily to the base
    period earnings impacts related to Hurricane Katrina.




                                                4
Gillette GBU
•   Net sales in Blades and Razors increased 11 percent to $1.28 billion. Gillette blades and
    razors market consumption increased seven percent behind strong results on Fusion in
    developed regions and on Mach 3 in developing regions. Volume increased four percent
    during the quarter while favorable product mix and pricing each added two percent to sales
    growth. Foreign exchange had a positive three percent impact. Net earnings were up 11
    percent during the quarter to $301 million behind the strong sales growth.


•   Net sales in Duracell and Braun increased five percent to $1.35 billion. Volume was flat with
    organic volume up low-single digits. Duracell organic volume increased low-single digits as
    solid growth in developing regions was partially offset by a weaker hurricane season and
    strong competitive activity in North America and Western Europe. Braun volume was down
    slightly due primarily to the divestiture of thermometer and blood pressure devices. The
    Duracell and Braun business was impacted by one-time supply disruptions during systems
    cutover at a warehousing facility in the United States during a key holiday shipment period.
    The issue was completely resolved during the quarter and shipments capabilities returned to
    full capacity. A more premium product mix contributed two percent to sales growth while
    favorable foreign exchange had a three percent impact. Net earnings increased 32 percent
    to $218 million.   Earnings growth was driven by the increase in net sales and lower
    acquisition-related expenses versus the base period.


Fiscal Year and January – March Quarter Guidance


       The company raised its organic sales growth outlook for the 2007 fiscal year due to solid
business momentum and a positive outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year. The company
now expects organic sales to grow by five to six percent.       This compares to the previous
guidance range of four to six percent. The combination of pricing and product mix is expected
to have a neutral to positive one percent impact on sales growth. Foreign exchange is expected
to have a positive impact of one to two percent. Acquisitions and divestitures are expected to
add about four percent to sales growth.   Total sales are expected to increase 10 to 12 percent.


       The company also raised its earnings per share outlook for the fiscal year due to the
strong results in the December quarter. The company now expects earnings per share to be in
the range of $2.99 to $3.03, up 13 to 15 percent versus prior year. This includes Gillette
dilution, which is now expected to be toward the lower end of the previous $0.12 to $0.18 per
share guidance range. Gillette dilution is tracking better than expected due to strong results on

                                                5
Blades & Razors and good progress on cost synergies. Operating margins are expected to
improve by over 100-basis points driven primarily by gross margin improvement. The tax rate
for fiscal year 2007 is expected to be at or slightly below 30%, in-line with previous guidance.
One-time items associated with the Gillette acquisition are expected to be $0.06 to $0.08 per
share.


         For the January – March quarter, organic sales are expected to grow by five to seven
percent. The combination of pricing and product mix is expected to have a neutral to positive
one percent impact on sales growth. Foreign exchange is expected to have a positive impact of
about two percent. Total sales are expected to increase seven to nine percent. The company
expects earnings per share to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.74.            Operating margins are
expected to be up 50 to 100 basis points driven by both gross margin improvement and SG&A
efficiencies.

Exhibit 1: Non-GAAP Measures

       In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation G, the following provides definitions of the non-
GAAP measures used in the earnings release and the reconciliation to the most closely related
GAAP measure.


Organic Sales Growth.       Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth
excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year
comparisons.       The company believes this provides investors with a more complete
understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis.


The reconciliation of reported sales growth to organic sales in the Oct - Dec 2006 quarter:

Organic Sales Growth                          5%              5%


Free Cash Flow.      Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending.
Management views free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor in
determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash
flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in
determining their at-risk compensation.


Free Cash Flow Productivity. Free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of free cash flow
to net earnings.    The company’s long-term target is to generate free cash at or above 90
percent of net earnings. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior
management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. The reconciliation of free
cash flow and free cash flow productivity is provided below ($ millions):

  • 2. Key Financial Highlights Net sales for the quarter increased eight percent to $19.73 billion. Every reportable segment grew sales led by double-digit increases in Blades & Razors and in Fabric Care & Home Care. Sales increased behind solid market share growth and continued success on product initiatives including Gillette Fusion, Tide Simple Pleasures, Febreze Noticeables, Olay Definity, Pantene Color Expressions, Head & Shoulders restage and Crest Pro Health. Volume increased four percent and organic volume, which excludes the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures, increased five percent during the quarter. Pricing added one percent to sales growth and favorable foreign exchange added an additional three percent. Organic sales, which exclude the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange, increased five percent. Net earnings during the quarter increased 12 percent to $2.86 billion. Net earnings were up behind sales growth and operating margin improvements. Operating profit margin increased 90-basis points due to gross margin expansion and lower selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales. Diluted net earnings per share increased 17 percent to $0.84. Gross margin increased 50-basis points to 52.9% of net sales during the quarter. Commodity costs had a negative impact on gross margin of about 80-basis points. Scale leverage from volume growth, price increases and cost savings projects more than offset the commodity cost impact. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were 30.9% of net sales, 30-basis points lower than the prior year period. SG&A improved primarily due to Gillette synergies, which drove overhead expenses down as a percentage of net sales versus the year-ago period. Operating cash flow was $2.45 billion during the quarter driven by strong earnings, partially offset by an increase in working capital. Accounts receivable increased due to business growth, holiday seasonality and temporary impacts related to the Gillette integration. Free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, was $1.78 billion during the quarter. Free cash flow productivity was 62% during the quarter and 75% fiscal year- to-date. The company continues to expect free cash flow productivity to be at or above its 90% target for the fiscal year. Capital expenditures were 3.4% of net sales during the quarter. 2
  • 3. Business Segment Discussion The following provides perspective on the company’s October - December quarter results by business segment. Beauty and Health • Beauty net sales increased eight percent during the quarter to $5.88 billion driven by solid volume growth across most categories. Organic sales increased five percent, despite a negative impact from sales disruptions to the SK-II franchise in Asia. Volume was up four percent and organic volume increased five percent behind mid-single digit organic volume growth in Hair Care, Skin Care and Feminine Care and high-single digit organic growth in Prestige fragrances. Volume growth was driven by continued successful initiative activity including Pantene Color Expressions, Head & Shoulders and Herbal Essences restages, Olay Definity and Regenerist, Always Clean, Tampax Pearl product upgrades and the Dolce & Gabbana “The One” launch. Favorable product mix drove a positive one percent sales impact while favorable foreign exchange trends added an additional three percent to sales growth. Net earnings grew 19 percent to $1.01 billion behind sales growth and margin improvement. Profit margin increased 150-basis points behind improved gross margin from a more profitable product mix and lower overhead expenses as a percentage of net sales. • Health Care net sales increased seven percent to $2.36 billion during the quarter. Volume grew two percent, while organic volume was up three percent. Pricing contributed two percent to segment sales growth and favorable product mix added one percent. Foreign exchange had a two percent impact on sales growth. Pharmaceuticals and Personal Health sales increased high-single digits behind mid-single digit volume growth. Prilosec OTC had a strong quarter with market share up over two share points versus year ago. Volume on Prilosec OTC was up double-digits behind the market share growth and a low base period comparison. Oral Care sales increased mid-single digits globally behind double-digit growth in developing regions. Health Care net earnings grew 22 percent to $472 million. Profit margin improved 250-basis points due to a more profitable product mix, lower product costs on Prilosec OTC and Gillette synergies. Household Care • Fabric Care and Home Care net sales increased 11 percent during the quarter to $4.68 billion behind eight percent volume growth. Volume was up double-digits in Home Care and high-single digits in Fabric Care behind the continued success of recent initiatives including 3
  • 4. Tide Simple Pleasures, Gain Joyful Expressions, several Swiffer restages, Febreze Noticeables, Cascade Action Packs and the Fairy Auto Dish expansion in Western Europe. Previously executed price increases contributed one percent to sales growth while favorable foreign exchange had a two percent impact. Net earnings increased nine percent to $673 million. Profit margin was down 20-basis points as scale benefits of volume growth, lower overhead expenses as a percentage of net sales and manufacturing cost savings projects were offset by higher commodity costs. • Baby Care and Family Care net sales increased five percent to $3.12 billion during the quarter. Volume grew two percent behind mid-single digit growth in Baby Care. Baby care volume increased high-single digits in developing regions behind strong market share growth in Greater China and in Central and Eastern Europe. In developed regions, Baby Care volume was up low-single digits. Pampers results were solid in North America due to continued growth of Baby Stages of Development and the Caterpillar stretch initiative on Pampers Baby Dry. This growth was partially offset by soft results on Pampers in Western Europe and Luvs in North America caused by low pricing of both branded and private label competitors. Family Care organic volume was up low-single digits on growth in North America, led by strong results on Charmin and Bounty Basics. Pricing in North America Family Care added one point to segment sales growth and favorable foreign exchange had a two percent impact on sales growth. Net earnings in Baby Care and Family Care increased three percent to $341 million as topline growth more than offset higher commodity costs. • Snacks, Coffee and Pet Care net sales increased three percent during the quarter to $1.25 billion. Volume was up one percent behind mid-single digit growth on Coffee, partially offset by a decline on Pet Care. Coffee volume grew as a result of a base period that included impacts from Hurricane Katrina and behind solid results on Folgers Simply Smooth and Gourmet Selections. Snacks volume was in-line with the prior year period as strong results on the Pringles Minis and Gourmet initiatives were offset by a four percent contraction in the North America chips market and heavy competitive merchandising activity. Disproportionate Coffee growth and favorable product mix in Snacks drove a positive one percent mix impact while favorable foreign exchange added one percent to sales. Net earnings increased 34 percent to $150 million during the quarter. Earnings increased due primarily to the base period earnings impacts related to Hurricane Katrina. 4
  • 5. Gillette GBU • Net sales in Blades and Razors increased 11 percent to $1.28 billion. Gillette blades and razors market consumption increased seven percent behind strong results on Fusion in developed regions and on Mach 3 in developing regions. Volume increased four percent during the quarter while favorable product mix and pricing each added two percent to sales growth. Foreign exchange had a positive three percent impact. Net earnings were up 11 percent during the quarter to $301 million behind the strong sales growth. • Net sales in Duracell and Braun increased five percent to $1.35 billion. Volume was flat with organic volume up low-single digits. Duracell organic volume increased low-single digits as solid growth in developing regions was partially offset by a weaker hurricane season and strong competitive activity in North America and Western Europe. Braun volume was down slightly due primarily to the divestiture of thermometer and blood pressure devices. The Duracell and Braun business was impacted by one-time supply disruptions during systems cutover at a warehousing facility in the United States during a key holiday shipment period. The issue was completely resolved during the quarter and shipments capabilities returned to full capacity. A more premium product mix contributed two percent to sales growth while favorable foreign exchange had a three percent impact. Net earnings increased 32 percent to $218 million. Earnings growth was driven by the increase in net sales and lower acquisition-related expenses versus the base period. Fiscal Year and January – March Quarter Guidance The company raised its organic sales growth outlook for the 2007 fiscal year due to solid business momentum and a positive outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year. The company now expects organic sales to grow by five to six percent. This compares to the previous guidance range of four to six percent. The combination of pricing and product mix is expected to have a neutral to positive one percent impact on sales growth. Foreign exchange is expected to have a positive impact of one to two percent. Acquisitions and divestitures are expected to add about four percent to sales growth. Total sales are expected to increase 10 to 12 percent. The company also raised its earnings per share outlook for the fiscal year due to the strong results in the December quarter. The company now expects earnings per share to be in the range of $2.99 to $3.03, up 13 to 15 percent versus prior year. This includes Gillette dilution, which is now expected to be toward the lower end of the previous $0.12 to $0.18 per share guidance range. Gillette dilution is tracking better than expected due to strong results on 5
  • 6. Blades & Razors and good progress on cost synergies. Operating margins are expected to improve by over 100-basis points driven primarily by gross margin improvement. The tax rate for fiscal year 2007 is expected to be at or slightly below 30%, in-line with previous guidance. One-time items associated with the Gillette acquisition are expected to be $0.06 to $0.08 per share. For the January – March quarter, organic sales are expected to grow by five to seven percent. The combination of pricing and product mix is expected to have a neutral to positive one percent impact on sales growth. Foreign exchange is expected to have a positive impact of about two percent. Total sales are expected to increase seven to nine percent. The company expects earnings per share to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.74. Operating margins are expected to be up 50 to 100 basis points driven by both gross margin improvement and SG&A efficiencies.

  • 8. The Procter & Gamble Company Exhibit 1: Non-GAAP Measures In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation G, the following provides definitions of the non- GAAP measures used in the earnings release and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure. Organic Sales Growth. Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year comparisons. The company believes this provides investors with a more complete understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. The reconciliation of reported sales growth to organic sales in the Oct - Dec 2006 quarter: Total P&G Beauty Total Sales Growth 8% 8% Less: Foreign Exchange Impact -3% -3% Less: Acquisition/Divestiture Impact 0% 0% Organic Sales Growth 5% 5% Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending. Management views free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor in determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. Free Cash Flow Productivity. Free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings. The company’s long-term target is to generate free cash at or above 90 percent of net earnings. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation.
