2. Forward-Looking Statement
The statements in this presentation that are not historical facts are forward-
looking statements based on current expectations of future events that
involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, risks
associated with the inherent uncertainty of pharmaceutical research,
product development, manufacturing, commercialization, economic
conditions including interest and currency exchange rate fluctuations, the
impact of competitive or generic products, product liability and other types
of lawsuits, the impact of legislative and regulatory compliance and
obtaining approvals, and patent, and other risks and uncertainties,
including those detailed from time to time in Wyeth’s periodic reports,
including quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and the annual report on Form 10-
K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Quarterly results, in
particular, can vary due to issues which include, but are not limited to,
changes in exchange rates, the timing of actions taken by the Company to
ensure long-term improvements to our manufacturing processes, the
timing of regulatory approval of new products and/or facilities and the
timing of promotional programs. Actual results may vary materially from
