EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY
“In the third quarter, we grew revenue 4% operationally, with particular strength in our companion animal portfolio due to increased global sales of APOQUEL and other new products,” said Zoetis Chief Executive Officer Juan Ramón Alaix. “The livestock portfolio also showed positive operational growth in the quarter, excluding the impact of product rationalizations -- a testament to the value of our diversification.”

“Our operational efficiency initiative as well as recent product launches are having clear benefits on our profitability, while we continue to invest in our business to sustain and grow our market leadership over the long term,” said Alaix.

“We continue to deliver solid operational revenue growth, while reducing our costs and improving margins. We are effectively implementing our operational efficiency initiative and are on target to exceed $300 million in savings in 2017,” said Glenn David, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Zoetis. “We remain committed to allocating resources to the most promising opportunities and returning excess capital to our shareholders. Based on our strong performance through the first nine months, we are raising our earnings guidance for 2016 and improving our earnings guidance for 2017 despite the impact of foreign currency.”

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS
Zoetis organizes and manages its commercial operations across two regional segments: the United States (U.S.) and International. Within these segments, the company delivers a diverse portfolio of products for livestock and companion animals tailored to local trends and customer needs. In the third quarter of 2016:

Revenue in the U.S. segment was $640 million, an increase of 1% compared with the third quarter of 2015. Sales of companion animal products grew 5%, driven by increased sales of APOQUEL® and several other new product launches, which were partially offset by declines in the company’s surgical fluid products. Sales of livestock products declined 2%, primarily due to product rationalizations as part of the company’s operational efficiency initiative, which impacted both poultry and swine. Swine also declined due to increased competition. The declines were partially offset by increased sales of cattle products due to promotional activities.

Revenue in the International segment was $585 million, an increase of 3% on a reported basis and an increase of 6% operationally, compared with the third quarter of 2015. Growth was partially offset by product rationalizations as a result of the company’s operational efficiency initiative and business changes in Venezuela and India. Sales of companion animal products grew 14% on a reported basis and 15% operationally, driven primarily from increased sales of APOQUEL, due in part to initial customer purchases in Japan, and other new product launches. In addition, sales grew in China, primarily in the vaccine portfolio, due to increased field force expansions and positive medicalization trends. Sales of livestock products declined 2% on a reported basis and grew 2%

operationally, driven primarily by the acquisition of PHARMAQ, with sales primarily in Chile and Norway. Growth also resulted from an increase in sales of cattle products in Brazil and swine products in China.

Zoetis continues to drive demand and strengthen its diverse portfolio of products through lifecycle innovations, strong customer relationships and access to new markets and technologies. The company is focused on improving the performance and delivery of its current product lines; expanding product indications across species; pursuing approvals in new geographies; and developing and marketing innovative medicines, treatments and solutions for emerging diseases and unmet customer needs.

As part of the companys focus on lifecycle innovation, Zoetis received approvals for new indications and formulations of key livestock products.

For swine, the company obtained approvals in the U.S. for new combinations of its FLUSURE XP® vaccine, which now helps guard against additional flu strains threatening swine herd health. Zoetis also expanded the breadth of its FOSTERA® swine vaccine franchise. In Mexico, the FOSTERA porcine reproductive and respiratory (PRRS) vaccine received an additional approval for reproductive protection, helping to prevent loss of piglets in utero due to PRRS infection. The company continued to bring its FOSTERA PCV MH vaccine to key markets with approvals in Brazil and Korea. This combination vaccine helps protect swine from porcine circovirus-associated disease and enzootic pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae.

DRAXXIN®, an injectable anti-infective to control and treat bovine respiratory disease, was approved for use in cattle in Japan, and it received an additional approval in Canada for use in pre-ruminating calves and veal cattle. Zoetis also obtained approval in Japan for BOPRIVA®, a unique vaccine that temporarily reduces testosterone in bulls, providing farmers with a highly effective therapy to manage aggressive behavior in cattle herds.

Zoetis continued to grow its diagnostics business through both an acquisition and the expansion of products into new markets.

In August, Zoetis acquired Scandinavian Micro Biodevices, a pioneer in developing and manufacturing microfluidic lab on a chip diagnostic analyzers and tests for veterinary point-of-care services. The acquisition gives the company an expanded and promising pipeline in this fast-growing segment of the animal health industry.

Zoetis also obtained new approvals for its WITNESS, SERELISA® and PROFLOK® lines of diagnostic test kits in new markets such as Mexico, Japan and Korea. WITNESS diagnostic test kits help detect parvovirus in dogs. SERELISA PRV and PROFLOK diagnostic test kits help detect Aujeszkys disease in swine and various diseases in poultry, respectively.

DISCLOSURE NOTICES

Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views of Zoetis with respect to business plans or prospects, future operating or financial performance, future guidance, future operating models, expectations regarding products, future use of cash and dividend payments, tax rate and tax regimes, changes in the tax regimes and laws in other jurisdictions, and other future events. These statements are not guarantees of future performance or actions. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if management's underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. Zoetis expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. A further list and description of risks, uncertainties and other matters can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, including in the sections thereof captioned “Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results” and “Item 1A.

These filings and subsequent filings are available online at www.sec.govwww.zoetis.com, or on request from Zoetis. 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and operational results (which exclude the impact of foreign exchange), to assess and analyze our results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are also useful to investors because they provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release should not be considered alternatives to measurements required by GAAP, such as net income, operating income, and earnings per share, and should not be considered measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures and GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this press release and are posted on our website at www.zoetis.com.

Internet Posting of Information: We routinely post information that may be important to investors in the 'Investors' section of our website at www.zoetis.com, on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/zoetis and on Twitter @zoetis.

(a)
The condensed consolidated statements of income present the three and nine months ended October 2, 2016, and September 27, 2015. Subsidiaries operating outside the United States are included for the three and nine months ended August 28, 2016 and August 23, 2015.
(b)
Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Non-GAAP adjusted net income and its components, and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.
(c)
Exclusive of amortization of intangible assets, except as discussed in footnote (d) below.
(d)
Amortization expense related to finite-lived acquired intangible assets that contribute to our ability to sell, manufacture, research, market and distribute products, compounds and intellectual property is included in Amortization of intangible assets as these intangible assets benefit multiple business functions.

(g)
Included in Provision for taxes on income.

The nine months ended October 2, 2016, includes (i) a net tax benefit of approximately $7 million related to a revaluation of the company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities using the tax rates expected to be in place going forward as a result of the implementation of certain operational changes and (ii) a net tax charge of approximately $38 million related to the impact of the European Commission’s negative decision on the excess profits rulings in Belgium. This net charge represents the recovery of prior tax benefits for the periods 2013 through 2015 offset by the revaluation of the company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities, using the rates expected to be in place at the time of the reversal, and does not include any benefits associated with a successful appeal of the decision.
The nine months ended September 27, 2015, includes a net tax benefit related to the revaluation of deferred taxes and other deferred tax adjustments.  
Certain amounts may reflect rounding adjustments.

(a)
Adjusted cost of sales, adjusted selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses, adjusted research and development (R&D) expenses, and adjusted net income attributable to Zoetis (non-GAAP financial measures) are defined as the corresponding reported U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) income statement line items excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs, and certain significant items. Reconciliations of certain reported to adjusted information for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2016, and September 27, 2015, are provided in the materials accompanying this report. These adjusted income statement line item measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for the corresponding U.S. GAAP line items. For the corresponding GAAP line items, see Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Non-GAAP Adjusted Information.
(b)
Operational growth (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as growth excluding the impact of foreign exchange.

(a)
Operational growth (a non-GAAP financial measure) excludes the impact of foreign exchange.
(b)
Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are defined as reported U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net income and its components and reported diluted EPS excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. Adjusted cost of sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, adjusted research and development (R&D) expenses, adjusted interest expense and adjusted other (income)/deductions are income statement line items prepared on the same basis, and, therefore, components of the overall adjusted income measure. Adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is defined as reported EBIT excluding purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related costs and certain significant items. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS (unlike U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS) may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. Adjusted net income and its components and adjusted diluted EPS are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income and its components and diluted EPS.
(c)
We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted net income operational growth to the most directly comparable GAAP Reported financial measure because we are unable to calculate with reasonable certainty the foreign exchange impact of unusual gains and losses, acquisition-related expenses, potential future asset impairments and other certain significant items, without unreasonable effort. The foreign exchange impacts of these items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP Reported results for the guidance period.
(d)
Primarily includes certain nonrecurring costs related to restructuring, net gains/losses on sales of assets, and other charges for the operational efficiency initiative and supply network strategy, becoming an independent public company, such as the creation of standalone systems and infrastructure, site separation, new branding (including changes to the manufacturing process for required new packaging), and certain legal registration and patent assignment costs.
