Note 1: Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present fairly the financial information contained therein. These statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.

All material intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform with current year presentation.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures stock-based compensation for option grants to employees and members of the board of directors using the intrinsic value method. Restricted stock awards are valued based on the market price of a share of nonrestricted stock on the grant date. No compensation expense has been recognized for stock-based incentive compensation plans other than for restricted stock awards. Had compensation expense for the Company’s stock options and employee stock purchase plans been recognized based upon the fair value for awards granted, the Company’s net earnings (loss) would have been decreased (increased) to the following pro forma amounts (in thousands, except per share data):

These pro forma effects are not indicative of future amounts. The Company expects to grant additional awards in the future.

The components of amortizable intangibles and goodwill were as follows:

Intangibles

Amortization expense of intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003 was immaterial.

Goodwill

There was no activity related to goodwill during the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, except for the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Note 3: Debt and Interest Rate Swap Agreements

On June 22, 2004, the Company issued $350.0 million of 2½% convertible senior subordinated notes due July 15, 2024 (Notes). Interest on the Notes is payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2005. The Notes are convertible into 19.9045 shares of AMO’s common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes (conversion price of approximately $50.24 per share), subject to adjustment. The Notes may be converted, at the option of the holders, on or prior to the final maturity date under certain circumstances, including:

7

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Upon conversion, the Company has the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash, on or after January 20, 2010 for a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The Notes contain put options which may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Notes on January 15, 2010, July 15, 2014, and July 15, 2019 at a repurchase price of 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest, if any, to, but excluding the repurchase date. The Company may choose to pay the repurchase price in cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

Beginning with the six-month interest period commencing January 15, 2010, holders of the Notes will receive contingent interest payments during any six-month interest period if the trading price of the Notes for each of the five trading days ending on the second trading day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable six-month interest period equals or exceeds 120% of the principal amount of the Notes. The contingent interest payable will equal 0.25% of the average trading price of $1,000 principal amount of Notes during the five trading days immediately preceding the first day of the applicable six-month interest period. This contingent interest payment feature represents an embedded derivative. However, based on the de minimis value associated with this feature, no value has been assigned at issuance and at June 25, 2004.

On or prior to January 15, 2010, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change, under certain circumstances, the Company will pay a make whole premium on notes converted in connection with, or tendered for repurchase upon, the fundamental change. The make whole premium will be payable, in the same form of consideration into which the Company’s common stock has been exchanged or converted, on the repurchase date for the notes after the fundamental change, both for notes tendered for repurchase and for notes converted in connection with the fundamental change. The amount of the make whole premium, if any, will be based on the Company’s stock price on the effective date of the fundamental change. This make whole premium feature represents an embedded derivative. However, based on the de minimis value associated with this feature, no value has been assigned at issuance and at June 25, 2004.

On June 25, 2004, the Company amended and restated its senior credit facility to provide a $250.0 million term loan and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The amended and restated senior credit facility matures on June 25, 2009. At June 25, 2004, the Company did not have any borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Approximately $9.6 million of the revolving credit facility has been reserved to support letters of credit issued on the Company’s behalf. The Company recorded a charge for and paid a $0.5 million fee to the senior credit facility lenders for their commitment to provide $450.0 million to fund the Company’s acquisition of Pfizer Inc.’s surgical ophthalmic business (Acquisition) in the event certain other financing transactions were not completed in a timely manner.

The term loan bears interest at current market rates plus a 2.25% margin (3.83% per annum at June 25, 2004). Borrowings under the revolving credit facility, if any, bear interest at current market rates plus a margin based upon the Company’s ratio of debt to EBITDA,

8

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

as defined. The incremental interest margin on borrowings under the revolving credit facility decreases as the Company’s ratio of debt to EBITDA decreases to specified levels. Under the senior credit facility, certain transactions may trigger mandatory prepayment of borrowings, if any. Such transactions may include equity or debt offerings, certain asset sales and extraordinary receipts. The Company pays a quarterly fee (2.25% per annum at June 25, 2004) on the average balance of outstanding letters of credit and a quarterly commitment fee (0.50% per annum at June 25, 2004) on the average unused portion of the revolving credit facility.

The senior credit facility provides that the Company will maintain certain financial and operating covenants which include, among other provisions, maintaining specific leverage and coverage ratios. These covenants are effective beginning with the quarter ending September 24, 2004. Certain covenants under the senior credit facility and the indentures relating to the 31/2% convertible senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2023 (Existing Notes) and the Notes may limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness. The senior credit facility prohibits dividend payments.

The proceeds from the term loan and a portion of the net proceeds from the Notes aggregating $450.0 million were used to fund the Acquisition, which was completed on June 26, 2004. In addition, approximately $80.8 million of the net proceeds from the Notes were used to consummate the June 2004 tender offer to purchase the remaining $70.0 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 91/4% senior subordinated notes due 2010 (Senior Subordinated Notes) and pay the related premium and consent fees. As a result of the purchase of the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $10.8 million for the premium and consent fees paid and a net gain of $0.7 million for the write-off of capitalized debt related costs and recognition of the realized gain on interest rate swaps.

On June 2, 2004, the Company’s Japan subsidiary repaid its ¥2.5 billion term loan facility. As a result of the prepayment of the term loan, a charge of $0.7 million for the write-off of capitalized debt related costs was recorded.

In June 2004 prior to the end of the second quarter, the Company exchanged approximately 5.8 million shares of common stock and approximately $4.6 million in cash for approximately $108.6 million in aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes in privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of holders (Exchanges). The Exchanges resulted in an aggregate increase of $216.4 million to common stock and additional paid in capital. Because the Existing Notes were not convertible into equity at the time of the Exchanges, a non-cash charge of approximately $107.2 million and a cash charge of approximately $4.6 million was recorded. The Company also recorded a charge of approximately $3.2 million for the write-off of the pro-rata portion of capitalized debt related costs. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company exchanged approximately 0.2 million shares of common stock for approximately $3.0 million aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes.

At June 25, 2004, an aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million of Notes, an aggregate principal amount of $31.4 million of Existing Notes and a balance of $250.0 million on the term loan were outstanding.

The aggregate maturities of total long-term debt as of June 25, 2004 are as follows: $1.3 million in 2004; $2.5 million in 2005, 2006 and 2007; $121.2 million in 2008; and $501.4 million after 2008.

In 2003 and 2002, the Company realized the value of certain interest rate swaps qualifying as fair value hedges. The unamortized gain was recorded as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes as a premium and was being amortized over the remaining life of the Senior Subordinated Notes. As a result of the purchase of the Senior Subordinated Notes, the remaining unamortized gain on the interest rate swaps was fully recognized.

At June 25, 2004, the Company did not have any interest rate swap agreements outstanding.

Note 4: Arrangements with Allergan

Prior to the June 29, 2002 spin-off from Allergan, Inc. (Allergan), the Company entered into several agreements with Allergan in connection with, among other things, transitional services, employee matters, manufacturing and tax sharing. These agreements generally require the Company to indefinitely indemnify Allergan from liabilities related to the business contributed to AMO. The transitional services agreement set forth charges generally intended to allow Allergan to fully recover the allocated costs of providing certain services, plus all out-of-pocket expenses, except that AMO paid to Allergan a commission related to AMO products that were sold by Allergan during the transition period. The Company recovered costs from Allergan in a similar manner for services provided by AMO. All transitional services with the exception of limited facility leases terminated in June 2003.

9

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Under the manufacturing agreement, Allergan manufactures certain eye care products and VITRAX® viscoelastics for a period of up to three years from the date of the spin-off. The Company purchases these products from Allergan at a price equal to Allergan’s fully allocated costs plus 10%. During the three months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003 and during the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, the Company purchased $24.1 million and $18.2 million, respectively, and $43.5 million and $36.8 million, respectively, of product from Allergan. On an annual basis, a pricing “true up” calculation is to be performed during the first calendar quarter. This “true up” calculation is based upon the actual volume of products shipped by Allergan to AMO during the preceding year versus the forecasted volume submitted by AMO that was used to calculate the invoiced prices. During the year, the Company periodically reviews the volume of purchases and accrues for estimated shortfalls, if any.

The following table summarizes the charges from Allergan for the above-mentioned services (in thousands):

Note 5: Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided using an estimated annual effective tax rate, which includes, in addition to foreign income taxes, U.S. federal income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries.

No income tax benefit has been recognized for the non-cash charge of approximately $107.2 million and the cash charge of approximately $4.6 million related to the Exchanges.

Note 6: Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated by adjusting weighted average outstanding shares, assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive stock options and awards.

The following represents a reconciliation from basic earnings (loss) per share to diluted earnings (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share data):

The effect of approximately 7.0 million common shares related to the assumed conversion of the Notes has been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for both 2004 periods presented because none of the conditions that would permit conversion had been satisfied during the periods. Options to purchase 6.1 million shares of common stock and the effect of approximately 1.5 million common shares related to the assumed conversion of the Existing Notes have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for both 2004 periods as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Note 7: Other Comprehensive Income

The following table summarizes components of comprehensive income (loss) (in thousands):

Note 8: Business Segment Information

Effective January 1, 2004, the Company organized its operations into four geographic operating segments or regions: the Americas, which is comprised of North and South America, Europe/Africa/Middle East, Japan and Asia Pacific (excluding Japan, but including Australia and New Zealand). Previously, Europe/Africa/Middle East and Asia Pacific were combined into one geographic region. Prior period property, plant and equipment, net sales and operating income (loss) have been reclassified to reflect the four operating segments.

The United States information is presented separately as it is the Company’s headquarters country, and U.S. sales represented 24.9% and 25.1% of total net sales for the three months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively, and 25.2% and 25.7% of total net sales for the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. Additionally, sales in Japan represented 25.7% and 27.5% of total net sales for the three months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively, and 25.2% and 27.0% of total net sales for the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. No other country, or single customer, generates over 10% of total net sales.

Operating income attributable to each operating segment is based upon the management assignment of costs to such regions, which includes the manufacturing standard cost of goods produced by the Company’s manufacturing operations (or the cost to acquire goods from third parties), freight, duty and local distribution costs, and royalties.

11

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Income from manufacturing operations is not assigned to geographic regions because most manufacturing operations produce products for more than one region. Research and development costs are corporate costs.

Geographic Operating Segments

12

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

In each geographic segment, the Company markets products in two product lines: Ophthalmic Surgical and Eye Care. The Ophthalmic Surgical product line markets intraocular lenses, phacoemulsification equipment, viscoelastics, and other products related to cataract and refractive surgery. The Eye Care product line markets cleaning, storage and disinfection products for the consumer contact lens market. The Company provides global marketing strategy teams to ensure development and execution of a consistent marketing strategy for products in all geographic operating segments. There are no transfers between product lines.

Net Sales by Product Line

Note 9: Commitments and Contingencies

On December 3, 2003, the Company filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Alcon, Inc. and Alcon Laboratories, Inc. for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 5,700,240 and 6,059,765. The Company alleged that Alcon’s “Infiniti” and “Series 2000 Legacy” phacoemulsification machines infringe the patents. The Company is seeking damages and a permanent injunction.

On January 28, 2004, Alcon Manufacturing, Ltd. filed a complaint against the Company and Allergan, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, for infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 4,832,685 and 4,935,005. Alcon alleged that the Company’s Prestige® and Sovereign® phacoemulsification systems and replacement cassettes infringe the patents. Alcon is seeking damages and a permanent injunction.

The Company is involved in various litigation and claims arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that recovery or liability with respect to any other pending lawsuits or asserted claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 10: Pension Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans in Japan and in certain European countries. Components of net periodic benefit cost under these plans were (in thousands):

Note 11: Subsequent Events

On June 26, 2004, the Company completed the Acquisition for $450 million in cash. The Company acquired ophthalmic surgical products and certain manufacturing and research and development facilities located in Uppsala, Sweden, Groningen, Netherlands and

13

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Bangalore, India. The products acquired include the Healon® line of viscoelastic products used in ocular surgery, the CeeOn® and Tecnis® intraocular lenses and the Baerveldt® glaucoma shunt. These assets generated sales of approximately $150 million in 2003.

The total estimated cost of the Acquisition is as follows (in thousands):

The allocation of the above purchase price is estimated to be as follows (in thousands):

The preliminary purchase price allocation above is based upon balances as of March 28, 2004 as more current information is not yet available. A final determination of fair values may differ materially from the preliminary estimates above and will include management’s consideration of a final valuation prepared by independent valuation specialists. This final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible assets acquired on June 26, 2004 and will likely include a significant charge to in-process research and development.

The following discussion and analysis presents the factors that had a material effect on AMO’s cash flows and results of operations during the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, and the Company’s financial position at that date. Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the subsection entitled “Certain Factors and Trends Affecting AMO and Its Businesses.” The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the 2003 Form 10-K and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

We are a global leader in the development, manufacture and marketing of medical devices for the eye and contact lens care products. Our products in the ophthalmic surgical market include intraocular lenses, phacoemulsification systems, viscoelastics and surgical packs used in cataract surgery, and microkeratomes used in refractive surgery. Our eye care products include disinfecting solutions to destroy harmful microorganisms in and on the surface of contact lenses, daily cleaners to remove undesirable film and deposits from contact lenses, enzymatic cleaners to remove protein deposits from contact lenses and lens rewetting drops to provide added wearing comfort.

We have operations in approximately 20 countries, sell our products in approximately 60 countries and have organized our operations into four regions:

Acquisition of Pfizer Inc. Surgical Ophthalmic Business

On June 26, 2004, we completed the acquisition of the Pfizer Inc. Surgical Ophthalmic Business for $450 million in cash (Acquisition). We acquired ophthalmic surgical products and certain manufacturing and research and development facilities located in Uppsala, Sweden, Groningen, Netherlands and Bangalore, India. The products acquired include the Healon® line of viscoelastic products used in ocular surgery, the CeeOn® and Tecnis® intraocular lenses and the Baerveldt® glaucoma shunt. These assets generated sales of approximately $150 million in 2003.

Separation from Allergan

On June 29, 2002, Allergan, Inc. (Allergan) transferred its optical medical device business consisting of the ophthalmic surgical and eye care product lines to us in connection with a tax-free spin-off. Prior to the spin-off, we entered into several agreements with Allergan in connection with, among other things, transitional services, employee matters, manufacturing and tax sharing.

Under the manufacturing agreement, Allergan manufactures certain eye care products and VITRAX® viscoelastics for a period of up to three years from the date of the spin-off. The Company purchases these products from Allergan at a price equal to Allergan’s fully allocated costs plus 10%. During the three months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003 and during the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, the Company purchased $24.1 million and $18.2 million, respectively, and $43.5 million and $36.8 million, respectively, of product from Allergan. On an annual basis, a pricing “true up” calculation is to be performed during the first calendar quarter. This “true up” calculation is based upon the actual volume of products shipped by Allergan to AMO during the preceding year versus the forecasted volume submitted by AMO that was used to calculate the invoiced prices. During the year, the Company periodically reviews the volume of purchases and accrues for estimated shortfalls, if any.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 25, 2004

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue and Accounts Receivable

We recognize revenue from product sales when title and risk of loss transfers, delivery has occurred, the price to the buyer is determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured, with the exception of intraocular lenses, which are generally distributed on a consignment basis and recognized as revenue upon implantation in a patient and fulfillment of the other revenue recognition criteria. We generally permit returns of product from a customer if the product is returned in a timely manner, in good condition, and through the normal channels of distribution. Return policies in certain international markets can be more stringent and are based on the terms of contractual agreements with customers. Allowances for returns are provided for based upon an analysis of our historical patterns of returns matched against the sales from which they originated. Historically, product returns have been within the amounts estimated.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by analyzing specific customer accounts and assessing the risk of uncollectibility based on insolvency, disputes or other collection issues. In addition, we routinely analyze the different receivable aging categories and establish allowances based on the length of time receivables are past due.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. On a regular basis, we evaluate inventory balances for excess quantities and obsolescence by analyzing estimated demand, inventory on hand, sales levels and other information. Based on these evaluations, inventory balances are reduced, if necessary.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

On January 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” whereby goodwill is no longer amortized, but instead is subject to a periodic impairment review. As our operations are comprised of four reporting units, we review the recoverability of our goodwill at the end of the second fiscal quarter of each year by comparing each reporting unit’s fair value to the net book value of its assets. If the book value of the reporting unit’s assets exceeds its fair value, the goodwill is written down to its implied fair value.

Additionally, we review the carrying amounts of goodwill and other intangibles whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit and adverse legal or regulatory developments. If it is determined that such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, based upon undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization periods for other intangibles and fair value for goodwill, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair market value. Estimated fair market value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. For the purposes of identifying and measuring impairment, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

Deferred Taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We evaluate the need to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based upon the amount of existing temporary differences, the period in which they are expected to be recovered and expected levels of taxable income. A valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets is established when it is “more likely than not” that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation

We measure stock-based compensation for option grants to employees and members of the board of directors using the intrinsic value method.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales. The following table compares net sales by product line for the three months and six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003:

Net sales increased $16.6 million, or 10.9%, to $168.7 million in the three months ended June 25, 2004 from $152.1 million in the three months ended June 27, 2003. Net sales for the six months ended June 25, 2004 were $319.0 million, a 12.6% increase from the comparable 2003 amount. The increase in net sales in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 compared with the same periods last year was the result of sales gains in both product lines and favorable foreign currency changes. Foreign currency fluctuations increased sales by $7.7 million, or 5.0%, and $19.7 million, or 7.0%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, as compared to average rates in effect in the prior year periods.

Global sales of our ophthalmic surgical products increased $8.4 million, or 10.7%, and increased $19.1 million, or 13.1%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared with the same periods last year. In the United States, sales of our ophthalmic surgical products increased $1.3 million, or 4.5%, in the three months ended June 25, 2004 and increased $3.2 million, or 6.1%, in the six months ended June 25, 2004 compared with the same periods last year, primarily due to increased sales of phacoemulsification equipment and the SENSAR® and CLARIFLEX® intraocular lenses, both with the OPTIEDGE™ design. International sales of our ophthalmic surgical products increased $7.1 million, or 14.0%, and increased $15.9 million, or 17.0%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared with the same periods last year, primarily due to increases in sales of the SENSAR® intraocular lens and phacoemulsification equipment and favorable currency changes. Foreign currency fluctuations increased international ophthalmic surgical sales by $3.5 million, or 4.4%, and by $9.4 million, or 6.5%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively. We believe that global sales of ophthalmic surgical products will continue to grow due to increased sales of our SOVEREIGN® COMPACT™ with WHITESTAR™ phacoemulsification system and the SENSAR® and the CLARIFLEX® intraocular lenses, both with the OPTIEDGE™ design.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2004, our sales will also include sales of products acquired in the Acquisition including, the Healon® family of viscoelastics, the CeeOn® and Tecnis® intraocular lenses and the Baerveldt® glaucoma shunt.

Global sales of our eye care products increased $8.2 million, or 11.2%, and increased $16.6 million, or 12.1%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, as compared with the same periods last year. Sales of our eye care products in the United States increased $2.5 million, or 23.6%, and increased $4.3 million, or 20.8%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, as compared with the same periods last year primarily due to an increase in sales of COMPLETE® branded products. International sales of our eye care products increased $5.7 million, or 9.1%, and increased $12.3 million, or 10.5%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, as compared with the same periods last year primarily due to an increase in sales of our

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 25, 2004

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

COMPLETE® branded and hydrogen peroxide-based products and favorable currency changes. Foreign currency fluctuations increased international eye care sales by $4.2 million, or 5.7%, and by $10.3 million, or 7.5%, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively. We believe that global eye care sales will continue to grow due to increased sales of our COMPLETE® branded and hydrogen peroxide-based products and continued sales growth in Europe, Asia Pacific and Japan. The market for eye care products is impacted by trends in the contact lens market such as advances in surgical procedures for vision correction and the growth of the market for daily and extended wear lenses. These trends could reduce demand for lens care products generally, which we may not be able to completely mitigate.

Gross margin. Our gross margin was 62.1% of net sales in the three months ended June 25, 2004, a decrease of 0.6 percentage points from the comparable prior year period. Our gross margin was 61.2% of net sales in the six months ended June 25, 2004, a decrease of 1.1 percentage points from the comparable prior year period. The decrease in gross margin as a percent of net sales in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 as compared to the same periods last year was primarily due to pre-production costs incurred at our manufacturing facility in Madrid, Spain, costs incurred for expansion of our manufacturing facility in Hangzhou, China and higher costs of product supplied by Allergan, partially offset by sales growth in the higher margin COMPLETE® branded line of eye care products. During the remainder of 2004, we expect our eye care product gross margin percentage will continue to be unfavorably impacted by higher costs of product supplied by Allergan and pre-production costs incurred at the Spain manufacturing facility.

Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $76.9 million, or 45.6% of net sales, and $148.1 million, or 46.4% of net sales, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared to $69.9 million, or 45.9% of net sales, and $137.5 million, or 48.5% of net sales, in the three and six months ended June 27, 2003. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was partially due to expenses incurred in preparation for the integration of the acquired business. Additionally, we increased our allowance for doubtful accounts by $1.4 million during the three months ended June 25, 2004 as a result of the termination of a distributor contract in Europe and the likely uncollectibility of amounts due from this former distributor.

Research and development. Research and development expenses were $10.2 million, or 6.0% of net sales, and $19.2 million, or 6.0% of net sales, in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared to $9.0 million, or 5.9% of net sales, and $17.7 million, or 6.3% of net sales, in the three and six months ended June 27, 2003. The increase in research and development dollars was primarily the result of an increase in spending for research efforts in the ophthalmic surgical business. As a result of our continued investment in research and development and other business development activities, we launched our new vitreal retinal system, AMO GEMINI™ in Europe, a capsular tension ring in North America, the ARRAY®II intraocular lens in Europe and an advanced formulation of our blink™ contact lens rewetter in the U.S. and Europe and expect to bring to market later this year our next generation microkeratome, the VERISYSE™ phakic intraocular lens for correction of myopia in the U.S. and enhancements to our phacoemulsification platform.

Non-operating expense. Interest expense was $7.2 million and $11.0 million in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared to $9.7 million and $14.6 million in the three and six months ended June 27, 2003, respectively. Interest expense decreased due to a lower average debt balance and a lower weighted average interest rate. Interest expense in both 2004 periods includes aggregate costs of $3.6 million comprised of the pro-rata write-off of debt issuance costs and one-time commitment fee of $6.1 million, write-off of original issue discount of $0.7 million and recognition of net realized gains on interest rate swaps of $3.2 million associated with the prepayment of the Japan term loan in June 2004, the consummation of the June 2004 tender offer for $70.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9¼% senior subordinated notes (Senior Subordinated Notes) and the exchange of $108.6 million aggregate principal amount of 3½% convertible senior subordinated notes for common stock and cash in June 2004 (Exchanges). Interest expense in both 2003 periods includes aggregate costs of $4.6 million comprised of the write-off of debt issuance costs and a realized loss on an interest rate swap associated with the prepayment of the term loan in June 2003

We recorded an unrealized gain on derivative instruments of $0.3 million and $0.5 million in the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, compared to an immaterial unrealized gain and an unrealized loss of $0.3 million in the three and six months ended June 27, 2003. We record as “unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments” the mark to market adjustments on the outstanding foreign currency options which we enter into as part of our overall risk management strategy to reduce the volatility of expected earnings in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Other non-operating expense in both 2004 periods includes early debt extinguishment costs aggregating $122.7 million associated with the debt transactions noted above.

Income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 was zero and 2.0%, respectively, compared to the effective tax rate of 41.0% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2003. Excluding the non-cash charge of approximately $107.2 million and the cash charge of approximately $4.6 million related to the Exchanges as no tax benefit has been recognized, the 2004 effective tax rate would have been 35.0%. The lower rate in 2004 is due to a shift in income to lower tax jurisdictions. Income taxes are provided on taxable income at the statutory rates applicable to such income. We have provided for U.S. federal income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries.

We believe our future effective income tax rate may vary depending on our mix of domestic and international taxable income or loss and the various tax and treasury methodologies that we implement, including our policy regarding repatriation of future accumulated foreign earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management assesses our liquidity by our ability to generate cash to fund operations. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are: funds generated by operations; levels of accounts receivable, inventories, accounts payable and capital expenditures; adequate lines of credit; and financial flexibility to attract long-term capital on satisfactory terms.

Historically, we have generated cash from operations in excess of working capital requirements, and we expect to do so in the future. Net cash used in operating activities was $4.7 million in the six months ended June 25, 2004 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $13.1 million in the six months ended June 27, 2003. Operating cash flow decreased in the six months ended June 25, 2004 compared to the six months ended June 27, 2003 primarily due to the approximately $10.0 million after tax effect of cash payments for early debt extinguishment costs, an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $460.3 million and $7.9 million in the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. The 2004 amount includes a $450.0 million advance to Pfizer Inc. for the Acquisition, which was completed on June 26, 2004. Expenditures for property, plant and equipment totaled $6.8 million and $4.4 million in the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. The 2004 expenditures are primarily comprised of expansion of our manufacturing facilities and construction of research and development facilities at our leased headquarters. The 2003 expenditures are primarily comprised of improvements to our leased headquarters, expansion of manufacturing facilities and a variety of other projects designed to improve productivity. We expect to invest approximately $20.0 million to $25.0 million in property, plant and equipment in 2004. Expenditures for demonstration (demo) and bundled equipment, primarily phacoemulsification and microkeratome surgical equipment, were $3.3 million and $3.7 million in the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. We maintain demo and bundled equipment to facilitate future sales of similar equipment and related products to our customers. We expect to invest approximately $6.0 million to $8.0 million in demo and bundled equipment in 2004. Expenditures for capitalized internal-use software were $0.2 million and immaterial in the six months ended June 25, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively. We expect to invest approximately $1.0 million to $2.0 million in capitalized internal-use software in 2004.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $494.7 million in the six months ended June 25, 2004, which was primarily comprised of $350.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of 2½% convertible senior subordinated notes and a $250.0 term loan partially offset by repayment of debt of $93.2 million and financing related costs of $15.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $61.7 million in the six months ended June 27, 2003, which was primarily comprised of $140.0 million of long-term borrowings partially offset by long-term debt repayments of $75.0 million and financing related costs of $6.2 million.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 25, 2004

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)

In June 2004 prior to the end of the second quarter, we exchanged approximately $108.6 million aggregate principal amount of 3½% convertible senior subordinated notes for common stock and cash. Because these notes were not convertible into equity at the time of the exchanges, a non-cash charge of approximately $107.2 million and a cash charge of approximately $4.6 million were recorded. Also in June 2004, our Japan subsidiary repaid its ¥2.5 billion term loan facility. Subsequent to quarter end, we exchanged an additional $3.0 million of 3½% convertible senior subordinated notes for common stock.

On June 22, 2004, we consummated the private offering of $350.0 million of 2½% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024.

On June 25, 2004, we amended and restated our senior credit facility to provide a $250.0 million term loan and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The amended and restated senior credit facility matures on June 25, 2009. As of June 25, 2004, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

The proceeds from the term loan and a portion of the net proceeds from the private offering aggregating $450.0 million were used to fund the Acquisition. In addition, approximately $80.8 million of the net proceeds from the private offering were used to consummate the June 2004 tender offer to purchase the remaining $70.0 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes and pay the related premium and consent fees.

Our cash position includes amounts denominated in foreign currencies, and the repatriation of those cash balances from some of our non-U.S. subsidiaries will result in additional tax costs. However, these cash balances are generally available without legal restriction to fund ordinary business operations.

We believe that the expected net cash provided by our operating activities, supplemented as necessary with borrowings available under our senior credit facility and existing cash and equivalents, will provide sufficient resources to meet our working capital requirements, debt service and other cash needs over the next year.

We are partially dependent upon the reimbursement policies of government and private health insurance companies. Government and private sector initiatives to limit the growth of health care costs, including price regulation and competitive pricing, are continuing in many countries where we do business. As a result of these changes, the marketplace has placed increased emphasis on the delivery of more cost-effective medical therapies. While we have been unaware of significant price resistance resulting from the trend toward cost containment, changes in reimbursement policies and other reimbursement methodologies and payment levels could have an adverse effect on our pricing flexibility.

Additionally, the current trend among U.S. hospitals and other customers of medical device manufacturers is to consolidate into larger purchasing groups to enhance purchasing power. The enhanced purchasing power of these larger customers may also increase the pressure on product pricing, although we are unable to estimate the potential impact at this time.

Inflation. Although at reduced levels in recent years, inflation may cause upward pressure on the cost of goods and services used by us. The competitive and regulatory environments in many markets substantially limit our ability to fully recover these higher costs through increased selling prices. We continually seek to mitigate the adverse effects of inflation through cost containment and improved productivity and manufacturing processes.

Foreign currency fluctuations. Approximately 75% of our revenues for the six months ended June 25, 2004 were derived from operations outside the United States, and a significant portion of our cost structure is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Japanese yen and the euro. Therefore, we are subject to fluctuations in sales and earnings reported in U.S. dollars as a result of changing currency exchange rates.

The impact of foreign currency fluctuations on sales was a $7.7 million increase and a $19.7 million increase for the three and six months ended June 25, 2004, respectively, and a $13.1 million increase and a $25.1 million increase for the three and six months ended June 27, 2003, respectively.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We routinely monitor our risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates. We address these risks through controlled risk management that may include the use of derivative financial instruments to economically hedge or reduce these exposures. We do not expect to enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Given the inherent limitations of forecasting and the anticipatory nature of the exposures intended to be hedged, there can be no assurance that such programs will offset more than a portion of the adverse financial impact resulting from unfavorable movements in either interest or foreign exchange rates. In addition, the timing of the accounting for recognition of gains and losses related to mark-to-market instruments for any given period may not coincide with the timing of gains and losses related to the underlying economic exposures and, therefore, may adversely affect our operating results and financial position.

To ensure the adequacy and effectiveness of our interest rate and foreign exchange hedge positions, we continually monitor, from an accounting and economic perspective, our interest rate swap positions and foreign exchange forward and option positions, when applicable, both on a stand-alone basis and in conjunction with our underlying interest rate and foreign currency exposures.

Interest rate risk. Our debt is comprised solely of domestic borrowings and is comprised of $381.4 million of fixed rate debt and $250.0 million of variable rate debt.

In 2003 and 2002, the Company realized the value of certain interest rate swaps qualifying as fair value hedges. The unamortized gain was recorded as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes as a premium and was being amortized over the remaining life of the Senior Subordinated Notes. As a result of the purchase of the Senior Subordinated Notes, the remaining unamortized gain on the interest rate swaps was fully recognized.

At June 25, 2004, the Company did not have any interest rate swap agreements outstanding.

If interest rates were to increase or decrease by 1.0% for the year, annual interest expense would increase or decrease by approximately $2.5 million.

The table below presents information about our debt obligations as of June 25, 2004:

Foreign currency risk. Overall, we are a net recipient of currencies other than the U.S. dollar and, as such, we benefit from a weaker dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger dollar relative to major currencies worldwide. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates, and in particular a strengthening of the U.S. dollar, may negatively affect our consolidated net sales and gross profit as expressed in U.S. dollars.

24

Advanced Medical Optics, Inc.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (continued)

We may enter into foreign exchange option and forward contracts to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus its attention on its core business operations. Accordingly, we enter into contracts which change in value as foreign exchange rates change to economically offset the effect of changes in value of foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments and anticipated foreign currency denominated sales and operating expenses. We enter into foreign exchange option contracts in amounts between minimum and maximum anticipated foreign exchange exposures, generally for periods not to exceed one year.

We use foreign currency option contracts, which provide for the sale of foreign currencies to offset foreign currency exposures expected to arise in the normal course of our business. While these instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, such fluctuations are anticipated to offset changes in the value of the underlying exposures. The principal currencies subject to this process are the Japanese yen and the euro.

The foreign currency options are entered into to reduce the volatility of earnings generated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily earnings denominated in Japanese yen and the euro. As a result, the changes in the fair value of foreign currency option contracts are recorded through earnings as “Unrealized (gain) loss on derivative instruments” while any realized gains or losses on expired contracts are recorded through earnings as “Other, net” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The premium cost of purchased foreign exchange option contracts are recorded in “Other current assets” and amortized over the life of the options.

At June 25, 2004, the aggregate notional amounts and strike amounts of our outstanding yen and euro currency option contracts were $38.8 million and 121.04 and $26.2 million and 1.09, respectively. The notional principal amount provides one measure of the transaction volume outstanding as of the end of the period, and does not represent the amount of our exposure to market loss. The fair value of these foreign currency option contracts was $0.1 million at June 25, 2004. The estimate of fair value is based on applicable and commonly used prevailing financial market information as of June 25, 2004. The amounts ultimately realized upon settlement of these financial instruments, together with the gains and losses on the underlying exposures, will depend on actual market conditions during the remaining life of the instruments.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force finalized it consensus on EITF Issue 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method Under FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share” (EITF 03-6). EITF 03-6 clarifies what constitutes a participating security and requires the use of the two-class method for computing basic earnings per share when participating convertible securities exist. EITF 03-6 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after March 31, 2004. Adoption of EITF 03-6 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

At its June 2004 meeting, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a tentative conclusion on EITF Issue No. 04-8, “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share” (EITF 04-8). EITF No. 04-8 addresses when the dilutive effect of contingently convertible debt with a market price trigger should be included in diluted earnings per share (EPS). The EITF reached a tentative conclusion that the market price contingency should be ignored and that these securities should be treated as noncontingent, convertible securities and always included in the diluted EPS computation. The tentative conclusion would result in these securities being included in diluted EPS using either the if-converted method or the net share settlement method, depending on the conversion terms of the security. The EITF agreed that the tentative conclusion would be applied by retroactively restating previously reported EPS. Conclusions are expected to be finalized at the September 2004 EITF meeting and EITF No. 04-8 is expected to be effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 2004, with restatement of previously reported EPS required. If the tentative conclusion is adopted by the EITF, we expect to irrevocably elect to cash settle the principal amount of the 21/2% convertible senior subordinated notes and thus, the dilutive effect of these notes would be calculated under the net share settlement method. If the tentative conclusion is adopted by the EITF, it would not have a material impact on reported EPS for the three and six months ended June 27, 2003 as the contingent convertible securities outstanding as of June 27, 2003 were issued on June 24, 2003. The tentative conclusion would not have an impact on reported EPS for the year ended December 31, 2003, as the impact of the contingent convertible securities is antidilutive. The tentative conclusion would not have an impact on reported EPS for the three and six months ended June 25, 2004 as we have reported a net loss for both periods.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC. In addition, we evaluated our internal control over financial reporting and there have been no changes during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

(c) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

2.50% Convertible Notes

On June 22, 2004, we consummated a private offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of 2.50% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024 (the “2.50% convertible notes”) at an offering price equal to 100% of the principal amount. We received approximately $340.5 million in net proceeds from the offering after deducting underwriters’ fees and offering expenses. The 2.50% convertible notes were issued by us to certain institutional investors (the “initial purchasers”) in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and were subsequently resold by the initial purchasers in the United States in reliance on Rule 144A under the Act only to “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A) in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Act.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2.50% convertible notes will be convertible at each holder’s option into 19.9045 shares of our common stock (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $50.24 per share), subject to adjustment as provided in the indenture governing the notes, only during specified periods under the following circumstances: (i) during any fiscal quarter commencing after September 24, 2004 if the closing sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on that 30th trading day; (ii) subject to certain exceptions, during the five business days after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2.50% convertible notes for each day of such measurement period was less than 95% of the product of the closing sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate then in effect; (iii) if after the earlier of (A) the date the 2.50% convertible notes are rated by both Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and Moody’s Investor Services and (B) thirty business days from the date the 2.50% convertible notes are issued, during any period in which the credit rating assigned to the notes by either agency falls below a specified level, or if either of these rating agencies does not rate or no longer rates the notes, or if either of these rating agencies suspends or withdraws the rating assigned to the notes; (iv) we have called the 2.50% convertible notes for redemption; (v) a fundamental change has occurred; or (vi) during prescribed periods upon the occurrence of certain corporate events. Upon conversion, we will have the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of our common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock. We also will have the right on or prior to the 26th trading day preceding the maturity date to irrevocably elect to satisfy our conversion obligation with respect to the principal amount of the 2.50% convertible notes to be converted in cash, with any remaining amount to be satisfied in shares of our common stock.

Common Stock

During the quarter ended June 25, 2004, we issued an aggregate of 5,786,775 shares of common stock and paid approximately $4.6 million in cash to a limited number of holders of our 3½% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2023 (the “3½% convertible notes”) in exchange for approximately $108.6 million aggregate principal amount of the 3½% convertible notes in privately negotiated transactions (the “Private Exchanges”). The issuance of the shares of common stock was made in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Act.
