The interim financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the interim results of operations, comprehensive earnings, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as updated by the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 6, 2014. The December 31, 2013 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, as updated, was derived from audited financial statements. The interim results of operations, comprehensive earnings and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other future period. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified from selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense to other operating (income) expense, net to conform to the presentation for the current period. The reclassifications had no impact on the previously reported net earnings attributable to Mylan Inc. common shareholders.
