Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AMO and all of its subsidiaries. All significant transactions among the consolidated entities have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if AMO will continue to operate as a separate company and no adjustments have been made to reflect future operations under Abbott.

The Company expects that its merger with Abbott will be completed during the first
quarter of 2009. The terms of the Merger Agreement indicate that, if a majority of the outstanding shares of AMO’s common stock is tendered in the merger, Abbott will advance, provide access to or otherwise fund sufficient amounts to the
Company to satisfy its outstanding debt obligations, including the credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), the convertible senior subordinated notes and the senior subordinated notes upon the close of the merger or shortly thereafter.
Abbott has a substantial amount of available capital to support the operations of the acquired AMO business, including available cash and investment balances, operating cash flows and access to credit facilities, in addition to AMO’s operating
cash flows.

Should the merger with Abbott not be consummated and given the worldwide economic crisis and its effects on the Company’s
refractive business, the Company’s current financial projections indicate that it may not be in

compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Facility in 2009, possibly as early as the second quarter. The Company would revert to the immediate
exploration of one or more of the alternatives that it was pursuing as part of its capital raising and debt reduction program that began in the second half of 2008. As a result of the Merger Agreement, the Company suspended work on these capital
raising and debt reduction efforts.

There were various elements to the Company’s capital raising and debt reduction efforts, which
were being explored either individually or in some combination at that time, including:

 







  

continued use of its Credit Facility to repurchase its convertible senior subordinated notes which were trading at a substantial discount to their face value;

 







  

further restructuring and cost reduction opportunities, as these actions are most controllable by the Company;

completion of one or more various types of equity investments, or alternatively, a debt recapitalization or restructuring; and

negotiation of a satisfactory package providing future covenant relief on the financial covenants of its Credit Facility.

mentioned above, were this to occur the Company would immediately renew the capital raising and debt reduction alternatives it was previously pursuing. The Company believes that a number of these options, in combination with each other, when
supplemented with its available cash, projected operating cash flows and availability under the Credit Facility, would provide sufficient resources to fund operations, capital expenditures, working capital, debt service and other cash needs over the
next twelve months, as well as to repurchase any remaining outstanding 2

The financial position and results of AMO’s foreign operations are generally
determined using local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each year-end. Income statement amounts are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing
during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign
currency transactions and remeasurements relating to foreign operations deemed to be operating in U.S. dollar functional currency are included in “Other, net” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) for a fair statement of the financial information contained therein. These statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. (the “Company” or “AMO”) for the year ended December 31, 2007. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.

All material intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, and related disclosures. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value within generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements. Although SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, its application may, in certain instances, change current practice. Where applicable, SFAS No. 157 simplifies and codifies fair value related guidance previously issued within GAAP. The Company has adopted FASB Staff Position 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP 157-2”), issued February 2008, and as a result the Company has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 157 that are applicable as of January 1, 2008, which had no material effect on its consolidated financial statements. FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities until January 1, 2009. See Note 5 for the interim disclosures required by SFAS No. 157.

In October 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active” (“FSP No. 157-3”). FSP No. 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP No. 157-3 was effective upon issuance on October 10, 2008, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The application of the provisions of FSP No. 157-3 did not materially affect the Company’s results of operations or financial condition as of and for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”), and SFAS No. 160, “Accounting and Reporting of Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). These new standards will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions and noncontrolling (or minority) interests in consolidated financial statements. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 141R and SFAS No. 160 effective January 1, 2009. The Company has not yet determined the effect, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 141R and SFAS No. 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for the Company January 1, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard but currently does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as a result of the implementation of SFAS No. 161.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (“FSP No. 142-3”). FSP No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing assumptions about renewal or extension used in estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). This standard is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141R and other GAAP. FSP No. 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The measurement provisions of this standard will apply only to intangible assets of the Company acquired after January 1, 2009.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”), which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of non-governmental entities that are presented in conformity with GAAP in the United States. SFAS No. 162 is effective sixty days following the SEC’s approval of The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s related amendments to remove the GAAP hierarchy from auditing standards.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP No. APB 14-1”). FSP No. APB 14-1 applies to convertible debt instruments that, by their stated terms, may be settled in cash (or other assets) upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, unless the embedded conversion option is required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under SFAS 133. FSP No. APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of convertible debt instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP No. APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. FSP No. APB 14-1 shall be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle on periods prior to those presented shall be recognized as of the beginning of the first period presented. An offsetting adjustment shall be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that period, presented separately. The Company has not yet determined the effect that the adoption of FSP No. APB 14-1 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008, which did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

non-marketable equity investments in conjunction with its various collaboration arrangements. The non-marketable equity investments are recorded at cost and are evaluated periodically for other than temporary declines in fair value. The Company uses
the following criteria to determine if such a decline should be considered other than temporary:

 







  

the duration and extent to which the market value has been less than cost;

STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"> 







  

the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee;

 







  

the reasons for the decline in market value;

the investee’s performance against product development milestones; and

STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"> 







  

the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

If it is determined that a decline of any investment is other than temporary, then the carrying value would be written
down to fair value, and the write-down would be included in earnings as a loss. There have been no such impairments in any period presented.

SIZE="2">Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. On a regular basis, the
Company evaluates its inventory balances for excess quantities and obsolescence by analyzing demand, inventory on hand, sales levels and other information. Based on these evaluations, inventory balances are written down, if necessary.

STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%">Concentration of Suppliers

SIZE="2">The Company depends on a limited number of suppliers, which typically include contract manufacturers, subcontractors and third-party vendors, for raw materials, packaging, components, assemblies and certain finished goods. These items are
normally purchased through standard purchase orders or short-term supply agreements. The Company’s business, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected by events including, but not limited to, an unforeseen delay of
supply, work stoppage, product design changes, regulatory changes, deterioration of quality of procured items or circumstances that limit the Company’s ability to negotiate competitive pricing on its purchases. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to successfully maintain a sufficient safety stock of its products or to guard against supply disruptions if an adverse event were to occur.

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Additions,
major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is generally provided on the straight-line method over the useful lives of the related assets, which are 20
to 40 years for buildings and improvements and from 2 to 15 years for machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the related facility lease or the asset, whichever is shorter. Accelerated depreciation methods are
generally used for income tax purposes.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) for a fair statement of the financial information contained therein. These statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. (the “Company” or “AMO”) for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007.

All material intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007 and recorded an increase in accumulated deficit of $0.3 million related to the cumulative effect of adoption. The components of the cumulative effect of adoption included an increase of $1.8 million in the gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits, an increase in gross deferred tax assets of $3.5 million and a decrease in goodwill of $1.4 million.

As of the adoption date, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $30.1 million of which $20.2 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. As of September 28, 2007, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $37.5 million of which $24.1 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. The difference primarily relates to timing differences and amounts arising from business combinations which, if recognized, would be recorded to goodwill.

We conduct business globally and, as a result, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Ireland, Japan, Germany, China, and Netherlands. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 1999.

The Company anticipates that the total amount of liability for unrecognized tax benefits may change due to the settlement of audits and the expiration of statute of limitations in the next 12 months. Quantification of such change cannot be estimated at this time.

The Company recognizes potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of the date of adoption, the Company had a liability for interest and penalties of $1.4 million (net of tax). As of September 28, 2007, the Company had a liability for interest and penalties of $2.1 million (net of tax).

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurement.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 157 on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact (if any) of SFAS No. 159 on its financial statements.
