3M Releases Additional Information on
Fourth-Quarter, Year 2000 Results
ST. PAUL, Minn., Jan. 24 3M , as it indicated
last week in its discussion of fourth-quarter 2000 results, today issued
additional financial information for the quarter and year 2000. This
information follows.
3M, as discussed in its January 17, 2001, press release of fourth-quarter
2000 results (excluding non-recurring items), has now issued additional
financial information for the quarters and years 2000 and 1999. This document
does not contain certain information that will be included in the company's
2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which will be published at a later date.
Reclassifications:
Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
presentation. Research, development and related expenses have been
reclassified from cost of sales and are now separately presented. Pursuant to
FASB Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and
Handling Fees and Costs, the company has also reclassified freight billed to
customers from selling, general and administrative expenses to net sales, and
has reclassified related freight costs from selling, general and
administrative expenses to cost of sales.
Revenue Recognition:
During the fourth quarter of 2000, the company changed its revenue
recognition policy. The company's previous policy stated that revenue is
recognized upon shipment of goods to customers and upon performance of
services. Essentially, the new policies recognize that the risks and rewards
of ownership in many transactions do not substantively transfer to customers
until the product has been delivered, regardless of whether or not legal title
has transferred. In addition to this change in accounting that affects a
substantial portion of its product sales, the company has revised aspects of
its accounting for services provided in several of its smaller businesses.
These new policies are consistent with the guidance contained in SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101. The effect of these changes in revenue
recognition policies, as of January 1, 2000, has been reported as the
cumulative effect of an accounting change in the fourth quarter of 2000. This
change did not have a significant effect on previously reported 2000 quarters.
Non-recurring Items - Fourth Quarter:
The company had several significant non-recurring items in the fourth
quarter of 2000 which reduced net income by $121 million, or $.30 per share.
Cost of sales includes $90 million of expenses related to the company's
previously announced intentions to phase-out perfluorooctanyl chemistry, the
write down of certain corporate assets and acquisition related expenses. Other
expense (income) -- net includes a $16 million gain from the sale of
securities. These items reduced operating income by $74 million and net income
by $46 million. The cumulative effect of an accounting change related to
revenue recognition, net of taxes, amounted to $75 million. Without these
items, net income would have been $447 million, or $1.12 per share. The
schedule that follows reconciles the impact of these non-recurring items on
our consolidated statement of income.
