Cautionary Statements
Our presentation today will include forward looking statements relating to the Company’s future performance, goals, strategic actions and
initiatives and similar intentions and beliefs, including expectations, goals, beliefs, intentions and the like regarding future sales, earnings, free
cash flow, share repurchases and other matters. These statements are based on assumptions regarding Company operations, investments and
acquisitions and conditions in the markets the Company serves.  We believe that these expectations are reasonable and well-founded. The
forward-looking statements in this presentation are subject to risks and uncertainties including, among others, certain economic, political and
technological factors. Actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied during this review or contained in other Company
communications due to, but not limited to, such factors as (1) global economic conditions, (2) changes in pricing and the competitive environment
and the global demand for our products, (3) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, (4) changes in research funding and the success of
research and development activities, (5) dependence on uninterrupted manufacturing operations, (6) changes in the regulatory environment in
which the Company operates, (7) changes in worldwide tax rates or tax benefits from domestic and international operations, including the matter
described in Note 4–Income Taxes– to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-Q report for the quarter ended March
31, 2010,  (8) exposure to litigation, including product liability claims, (9) the ability to maintain adequate quality standards, (10) reliance on third
party package delivery services, (15) failure to achieve planned cost reductions in global supply chain rationalization, (12) an unanticipated
increase in interest rates, (13) failure of planned sales initiatives in our Research and SAFC businesses, (14)  other changes in the business
environment in which the Company operates, and (15) the outcome of the matters described in Note 15-Contingent Liabilities and Commitments-in
the Company’s Form 10-Q report for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  A further discussion of risk factors can be found in Item 1A of the
Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update the
matters covered in this presentation.
With over 60% of sales denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, management uses currency-adjusted growth, and believes it is
useful to investors, to judge the Company’s controllable, local currency performance. Organic sales growth data presented in this review is
proforma data and excludes currency impacts. While able to report historical currency impacts after the fact, we are unable to estimate changes
that may occur later in 2010 to applicable rates of exchange and thus are unable to reconcile the projected non-GAAP currency adjusted internal
growth rates to reported GAAP growth rates for 2010.  Any significant changes in currency exchange rates would likely have a significant impact
on our reported growth rates due to the volume of our sales denominated in foreign currencies.
Management also uses proforma net income and free cash flow, non-GAAP measures, to judge its performance and ability to pursue opportunities
that enhance shareholder value. Due to the uncertain timing of the future restructuring charges, we are unable to include this in the 2010 diluted
EPS forecast. Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful to investors as well.  Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP information
are included in the Company’s July 22, 2010 earnings release posted on its website, www.sigma-aldrich.com
