ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
As disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30,
2005, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) effective July 1, 2005 which requires that
all stock-based compensation, including grants of employee stock options, be
accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company has elected to adopt
SFAS 123(R) using the modified retrospective method under which prior years'
results will be revised to give effect to the value of options granted in fiscal
years beginning on or after July 1, 1995. The recognized compensation expense
will be consistent with the amounts previously reported in the Company's pro
forma footnote disclosure for stock-based compensation on Form 10-K for the year
ended June 30, 2005. Consistent with the Company's basis of measurement for
segment performance, the additional expense associated with stock-based
compensation under SFAS 123(R) will be also reflected in segment results.
The attached exhibits are intended to provide investors more insight into
the impact of SFAS 123(R) on the Company's 2005 results by quarter and for the
full year. Exhibits 99-1 and 99-2 provide consolidated earnings information both
as reported and reflecting the retrospective impact of SFAS 123(R) for the
fiscal years ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Exhibits 99-3 and 99-4
provide business segment information both as reported and reflecting the
retrospective impact of SFAS 123(R) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2005 and
2004, respectively.
As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131,
consolidated financial statements issued by the Company in the future will
reflect these modifications, including reclassification of all comparative prior
period segment information.
These financial statements, conformed for the changes, will become the
historical financial statements of The Procter & Gamble Company and consolidated
subsidiaries for currently open and future filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
