P&G Delivers Strong Sales and EPS Growth - Raises Fiscal Year Outlook

Organic Sales Growth Above Long-Term Target, Base Business EPS Growth of 19% to 20%

CINCINNATI, May 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE: PG) announced earnings per share of $0.63 for the January - March quarter. Earnings per share grew behind a six percent increase in organic sales coupled with significant expansion in both gross and operating profit margin. The company's organic sales increase was broad-based across all business segments and in both developed and developing regions. Reported net sales, which include the Gillette business, increased 21 percent, to $17.25 billion.

"The combination of strong topline momentum, improving gross margins and good progress on Gillette integration gives us the confidence to raise our EPS outlook for the fiscal year," said Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive A. G. Lafley. "P&G is delivering strong, sustainable earnings growth despite Gillette dilution. Excluding Gillette, P&G is on track to deliver a fourth consecutive year of double digit EPS growth."

    Executive Summary
     * Unit volume for the quarter grew 22 percent, driven by solid organic
       growth in both developed and developing regions and the addition of the
       Gillette business.  Organic volume, which excludes the impacts of
       acquisitions and divestitures, increased five percent behind double
       digit developing market growth.  Volume growth was broad-based behind
       product innovations that drove market share growth.

     * Net sales grew 21 percent to $17.25 billion.  Organic sales, which
       exclude the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange,
       increased six percent, exceeding the top end of the company's base
       business long-term organic growth target range of three to five
       percent.

     * Net earnings increased 37 percent to $2.21 billion behind sales growth
       and significant margin improvement.  Operating margin increased by 160
       basis points behind an expansion in gross margin of 110 basis points as
       the mix benefits of Gillette, along with volume growth, price increases
       and cost savings initiatives more than offset higher commodity costs.

     * Earnings per share were $0.63, up seven percent versus the prior year,
       including an estimated $0.07-$0.08 of dilution from the Gillette
       acquisition.  Dilution from Gillette was within the company's prior
       guidance range.  Base business earnings per share, which exclude the
       impact of Gillette dilution, grew 19 to 20 percent.  Earnings per share
       also benefited by $0.01 from a lower than expected tax rate due to a
       favorable tax settlement in the quarter.

    Key Financial Highlights
     * Net sales increased 21 percent to $17.25 billion, including a negative
       three percent foreign exchange impact.  Sales increased behind the
       addition of Gillette and five percent organic volume growth.  Organic
       sales increased six percent in the quarter.  Pricing increases and
       favorable product mix each added one percent to sales growth.

     * Gross margin expanded by 110 basis points in the quarter to 51.7%.
       Commodity cost increases had a negative impact on gross margin of about
       100 basis points.  Organic volume growth, pricing and cost savings
       projects roughly offset commodity cost increases while the mix benefit
       from adding the Gillette business drove margin expansion.

     * Selling, General and Administrative expenses (SG&A) as a percentage of
       sales improved by 60 basis points in the quarter.  This was driven by
       strong organic sales growth, good overhead cost control and high base
       period marketing spending against new product initiatives.

     * The company's operating cash flow was $3.44 billion during the quarter,
       an increase of 31 percent, versus the prior year period.  Operating
       cash improved behind the addition of Gillette and earnings growth on
       the base business.  Working capital increased cash versus the prior
       year period due primarily to a reduction in accounts receivables during
       the quarter.  Free cash flow, defined as operating cash flow less
       capital spending, was $2.80 billion.  Free cash flow productivity was
       127 percent during the quarter, bringing the fiscal year to date free
       cash flow productivity to 96 percent, slightly ahead of the comparable
       prior year period.  Capital spending for the quarter was 3.7% of sales.

     * The company repurchased $3.7 billion of P&G stock during the quarter as
       part of its previously announced Gillette share repurchase program,
       including some transactions that settled in April.  This brings the
       cumulative value of shares purchased under the program to $15.8
       billion.  The company continues to expect to repurchase about $20
       billion in total under the program and to complete the program by mid-
       calendar year 2006.

    Business Segment Discussion

The following provides perspective on the company's January - March results by business segment.

    P&G Beauty
     * Beauty volume increased eight percent for the quarter behind solid
       organic volume growth and the addition of Gillette Personal Care.
       Organic volume increased four percent with broad-based growth across
       categories and double digit developing region growth.  Skin Care volume
       increased double digits behind strong growth on Olay.  Cosmetics volume
       decreased versus last year due to declines on Max Factor in North
       America resulting from more focused distribution.  Retail Hair Care
       volume increased mid-single digits behind strong growth on Pantene,
       Head and Shoulders and Rejoice.  Beauty net sales increased by six
       percent to $5.16 billion driven by the addition of Gillette Personal
       Care, organic volume growth and a one percent favorable product mix
       impact, partially offset by three percent of unfavorable foreign
       exchange trends.  Organic sales increased five percent.  Net earnings
       in Beauty increased 10 percent to $738 million behind the addition of
       Gillette, solid organic sales growth, reduced Wella integration costs
       and a more profitable product mix, partially offset by an increase in
       commodity costs and marketing investments.

    P&G Family Health
     * Health Care volume increased 18 percent for the quarter, including the
       addition of Gillette Oral Care.  Despite positive share trends across
       most businesses and regions, organic volume declined by one percent.
       Year-on-year comparisons were significantly impacted by a very strong
       base period in which volume grew 14 percent behind the rebuild of
       Prilosec OTC trade inventory following an allocation period.  The prior
       year also benefited from a late flu season in North America and Western
       Europe.  Importantly, market shares grew in Oral Care, Respiratory and
       on Prilosec OTC.  Health Care net sales grew 21 percent to $2.43
       billion due primarily to the addition of Gillette Oral Care.  Organic
       sales increased three percent.  Favorable product mix in
       Pharmaceuticals and Personal Health and on the base Oral Care business
       added three percent to sales growth.  In addition, previously announced
       price increases in Pharmaceuticals and Personal Health added one
       percent to sales growth, but were offset by one percent of unfavorable
       foreign exchange rate trends.  Net earnings in Health Care grew 28
       percent to $298 million, primarily behind the addition of the Gillette
       Oral Care business and margin expansion on the base business.

     * Baby Care and Family Care volume increased two percent in the quarter,
       with organic volume up three percent.  Baby Care volume increased in
       the low-single digits with developing regions up double digits behind
       strong market share results in China and in Central and Eastern Europe.
       In developed regions, market share on Pampers in North America was in-
       line with the prior year period while continued pricing pressure from
       private label brands drove some softness on the Luvs brand.  Diaper
       market share remained strong in Western Europe at over 54%.  Family
       Care organic volume grew in the mid-single digits, largely behind
       Bounty and on the continued success of the Charmin Basic initiative.
       Net sales in the segment were $3.03 billion, down one percent versus
       the prior year, including a negative three percent foreign exchange
       impact.  Previously announced price increases in North America Baby
       Care, coupled with a late January increase in North America Family
       Care, added two percent to sales growth.  Disproportionate growth in
       mid-tier products and in developing regions resulted in a negative two
       percent mix effect.  Net earnings increased two percent to $326 million
       against a strong base period in which earnings increased 60% driven by
       13 percent sales growth.  Earnings growth was driven by organic sales
       growth and margin improvements.

    P&G Household Care
     * Fabric Care and Home Care volume increased seven percent.  Growth was
       broad-based across regions and across both Fabric Care and Home Care
       driven by continued successful initiative activity including Tide with
       Febreze, Bounce with Febreze, Gain Joyful Expressions, Bold Liquid
       Tablets and Febreze Noticeables.  Net sales increased seven percent to
       $4.08 billion, including a negative two percent foreign exchange
       impact.  Pricing activity, primarily in Latin America Fabric Care and
       North America Dish Care, added two percent to sales growth.  Earnings
       grew 13 percent to $545 million behind sales growth and margin
       expansion.  Operating margin expanded as volume growth, pricing
       activity and cost savings projects offset increased commodity costs and
       initiative marketing investments.

     * Snacks and Coffee volume increased three percent.  Coffee volume
       increased mid-single digits as Folgers market share, which was impacted
       by disruptions related to Hurricane Katrina, returned to pre-hurricane
       levels during the quarter.  Snacks volume was flat versus the prior
       year period.  Net sales for the segment increased four percent to $796
       million, including a negative two percent impact from unfavorable
       foreign exchange rate trends.  Sales benefited by three percent from
       previously announced Coffee price increases.  Earnings were up 12
       percent to $109 million driven by sales growth and an insurance
       recovery from Hurricane Katrina, which more than offset current quarter
       hurricane-related costs.

Gillette (comparisons are versus published pro forma results released on October 4, 2005)

     * Blades and Razors sales increased one percent during the quarter to
       $1.19 billion, including a negative two percent foreign exchange
       impact.  The launch of Fusion in North America led to a significant
       increase in sales in the region but was partially offset by a decline
       in Western Europe.  In Western Europe, sales were down despite a one
       point increase in market share to 75 percent.  This was due to a very
       strong base comparison period that included the launch of M3Power and
       Venus Disposables.  Additionally, sales were impacted by a planned
       reduction in distributor inventory levels in several developing
       countries in Asia where the Gillette business was integrated into
       existing P&G distributors.  Overall, Blades and Razors volume/mix
       increased two percent and previously announced price increases added
       one percent to sales growth.  Global market share on the Gillette
       Blades and Razors franchise grew roughly one point versus the prior
       year period to 73 percent.  Earnings before income taxes were $361
       million, down 17 percent versus the prior year due primarily to
       increased amortization charges from purchase accounting adjustments
       that impacted earnings before income taxes by 20 percent.  Earnings
       benefited from strong sales in North America and synergy savings from
       overhead cost reductions, largely offset by increased marketing
       investment behind the Fusion launch and the sales declines in Western
       Europe and Asia.  Net earnings for the segment were $265 million in the
       quarter.

     * Duracell and Braun sales were $763 million, down one percent versus the
       prior year including three percent of unfavorable foreign exchange.  In
       the Duracell business, market share growth and price increases taken in
       North America to compensate for rising commodity costs were more than
       offset by unfavorable foreign exchange, strong competitive activity in
       Western Europe and unfavorable mix due to a trend toward larger pack
       sizes.  Braun sales increased in North America behind Tassimo, but were
       partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange and strong competitive
       activity in Germany.  Overall, volume/mix and pricing each contributed
       one percent to segment sales growth, but were offset by negative three
       percent of unfavorable foreign exchange.  Earnings before income taxes
       increased one percent to $76 million, including purchase accounting
       adjustments that negatively impacted earnings before income taxes by 13
       percent.  Earnings grew ahead of sales primarily because of base period
       charges for the shutdown of the Lexington manufacturing facility and
       synergy savings from overhead cost reductions.  In addition, cost
       savings efforts resulting largely from the Gillette Functional
       Excellence program more than offset the effect of increased commodity
       costs.  Net earnings for the segment were $54 million in the quarter.

    April - June and Fiscal Year Guidance

For the current fiscal year, the company expects its fourth consecutive year of base business growth at or above its long-term growth targets. Organic sales, which exclude the impact of foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures, are expected to grow six to seven percent. The sales growth estimate includes a positive one percent contribution from pricing and mix. Foreign exchange is expected to have a negative one percent impact on sales growth while acquisitions and divestitures are expected to add about 14 percent growth to sales. Net sales are expected to grow 19 to 20 percent for the fiscal year.

Earnings per share for the fiscal year are now expected to be between $2.61 and $2.63. The company raised the mid-point of its earnings per share estimate by $0.02 due to strong base business performance in the March quarter and the good progress the company is making on the Gillette integration. The earnings per share estimate includes $0.19 - $0.23 of Gillette dilution. The dilution estimate includes $0.10 to $0.11 of one-time expenses.

In the April - June quarter, the company expects organic sales, which exclude the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange, to grow four to six percent compared to a very strong base period in which organic sales grew 9 percent. This includes up to one percent impact from pricing and mix. Foreign exchange is estimated to have a negative one to two percent impact on sales growth. Acquisitions and divestitures are expected to add 18 to 19 percent, resulting in net sales growth of 20 to 24 percent in the June quarter.

Earnings per share for the June quarter are expected to be $0.52 to $0.54. This reflects the timing change of the favorable tax settlement from the June quarter to the March quarter as well as higher non-operating income in the June quarter versus the prior year period due to higher interest income and the planned impact of divestitures. For the fiscal year, the company continues to expect non-operating income to be down as a percentage of total net earnings. The June earnings per share estimate includes $0.06 to $0.09 per share of Gillette dilution. This dilution estimate includes one-time expenses of $0.03 - $0.04 per share. Excluding the impact of Gillette dilution, earnings per share for the June quarter are expected to be up high teens versus a strong year-ago base period.

    Exhibit 1: Non-GAAP Measures

In accordance with the SEC's Regulation G, the following provides definitions of the non-GAAP measures used in the earnings release and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure.

Organic Sales Growth. Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We believe this provides investors with a more complete understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis.

Base Business EPS. Base EPS growth is defined as diluted earnings per share growth on the company's business excluding the impact of Gillette dilution. Management views this as a more comparable measure of year-on-year earnings per share growth since the effects of Gillette only impact the current year period. The following provides a reconciliation of Base Business EPS and Base Business EPS growth in the March quarter versus the comparable prior year period:

     Diluted EPS per Share (January - March 2006)            $0.63
     Gillette Dilution Impact (January - March 2006)     $0.07 - $0.08
     Base Business EPS (January - March 2006)            $0.70 - $0.71

     Diluted EPS (January - March 2005)                      $0.59
     Base Business EPS Growth                              19% - 20%

Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow, less capital spending. We view free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor in determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation.

Free Cash Flow Productivity. Free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings. The Company's long-term target is to generate free cash at or above 90 percent of net earnings. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management. The reconciliation of free cash flow and free cash flow productivity is provided below ($ millions):
