On February 15, 2006, Hewlett-Packard Company (“HP”) issued a press release relating to its fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2006, entitled “HP Reports First Quarter 2006 Results.” The text of this press release, along with the non-GAAP consolidated condensed statements of earnings, the GAAP consolidated condensed statements of cash flows and certain additional financial information are furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1. The information in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
In connection with its press release announcing its earnings for its fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2006, HP also provided the GAAP consolidated
condensed statements of earnings, consolidated condensed balance sheets and segment information for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2006 filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2. Exhibit 99.2 is filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act and therefore may be incorporated by reference into filings under the Securities Act.
To supplement HP’s consolidated condensed financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, HP provides certain non-GAAP financial measures. Each of these non-GAAP measures is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide both management and investors with a more complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends and an enhanced overall understanding of HP’s financial performance, liquidity and prospects for the future. This non-GAAP information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial
measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additional information about HP’s use of non-GAAP financial information is included in Exhibit 99.1.
At the beginning of each fiscal year, HP conducts a review of its financial reporting structure and determines whether changes should be made to more closely align its financial reporting with its business structure. As a result of HP’s fiscal 2006 review, HP is releasing today modified quarterly and year-to-date consolidated condensed statements of earnings and segment results for fiscal 2004 and 2005, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3. The new information set forth in the modified financial statements reflects primarily the impact of certain fiscal 2006 organizational realignments. To provide improved visibility and comparability, HP has reflected these realignments in prior periods on an as-if basis. The changes are immaterial in size and reflect primarily revenue shifts among business units within the same
business segment. At the segment level, only HP’s Enterprise Storage and Servers and Software segments were impacted by these realignments, with quarterly revenue and operating profit fluctuations of no more than $5 million. None of the changes reflected in these modified financial statements impacts HP’s previously reported consolidated net revenue, earnings from operations, net earnings or net earnings per share. Exhibit 99.3 is filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act and therefore may be incorporated by reference into filings under the Securities Act.
In connection with HP’s release of its modified quarterly and year-to-date consolidated condensed statements of earnings and segment results for fiscal 2004 and 2005, HP is also providing revised business unit revenue for fiscal 2004 and 2005 along with supplemental financial tables illustrating the impact by segment and business unit of the fiscal 2006 organizational realignments. This information is
furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.4 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act.
