Forward Looking Statement
This presentation contains forward-looking information about 3M's financial results and estimates and business prospects that
involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the use of words such as "anticipate,"
"estimate,” "expect," “aim," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "will," “should," “could," "target," "forecast" and other words
and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or business plans
or prospects. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: (1) worldwide economic
and capital markets conditions and other factors beyond 3M's control, including natural and other disasters affecting the
operations of 3M or its customers and suppliers; (2) 3M's credit ratings and its cost of capital; (3) competitive conditions and
customer preferences; (4) foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates; (5) the timing and market
acceptance of new product offerings; (6) the availability and cost of purchased components, compounds, raw materials and
energy (including oil and natural gas and their derivatives) due to shortages, increased demand or supply interruptions
(including those caused by natural and other disasters and other events); (7) the impact of acquisitions, strategic alliances,
divestitures, and other unusual events resulting from portfolio management actions and other evolving business strategies, and
possible organizational restructuring; (8) generating fewer productivity improvements than estimated; (9) unanticipated
problems or delays with the phased implementation of a global enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, or security breaches
and other disruptions to 3M's information technology infrastructure; and (10) legal proceedings, including significant
developments that could occur in the legal and regulatory proceedings described in 3M's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2014, and its subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q (the “Reports”). Changes in such
assumptions or factors could produce significantly different results. A further description of these factors is located in the
Reports under “Cautionary Note Concerning Factors That May Affect Future Results” and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Items 1 and
1A (Annual Report) and in Part I, Item 2 and Part II, Item 1A (Quarterly Report). The information contained in this presentation is
as of the date indicated. 3M assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation as
a result of new information or future events or developments.
