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,
acquisitions
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) failure of planned sales initiatives in our
Research and SAFC businesses, (6) dependence on uninterrupted manufacturing operations, (7) failure to achieve planned cost reductions
in global supply chain initiatives and restructuring actions, (8) changes in the regulatory environment in which the Company operates, (9)
changes
in
worldwide
tax
rates
or
tax
benefits
from
domestic
and
international
operations,
including
the
matters
described
in
Note
10–
Income Taxes–
to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010,  (10)
exposure
to
litigation,
including
product
liability
claims,
(11)
the
ability
to
maintain
adequate
quality
standards,
(12)
reliance
on
third
party
package delivery services, (13) an unanticipated increase in interest rates, (14)  other changes in the business environment in which the
Company operates, and (15) the outcome of the outstanding matters described in Note 11-Contingent Liabilities and Commitments to the
Consolidated Financial Statements-in the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010.  A further discussion of risk
factors can be found in Item 1A of Part 1 of the Company’s Form 10-K report for the year ended December 31, 2010. 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 and acquisition impacts. The Company calculates the impact of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates by multiplying current period activity by the difference between current period exchange rates and prior period exchange
rates. The result is the defined impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. While we are able to report historical currency
impacts after the fact, we are unable to estimate changes that may occur later in 2011 to applicable exchange rates. 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 adjusted  net income and EPS, adjusted operating income and operating income margins (excluding restructuring
and
impairment
costs)
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 and other extraordinary special changes, we are unable to include
a 2011 diluted GAAP EPS forecast or reconcile to our 2011 diluted adjusted EPS forecast or provide a reconciliation to corresponding
GAAP
measures
.
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
April
26,
2011
earnings
release
posted
on
its
website,
www.sigma-aldrich.com,
and
in

Appendix –
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures beginning on Slide 12.
