TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
As
disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005, The Procter
and Gamble Company (“the Company”, “we”) adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
SFAS 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123 (R)) effective July 1, 2005 which requires
that all stock-based compensation, including grants of employee stock options, be accounted for
using a fair-value-based method. The Company has elected to adopt SFAS 123(R) using the modified
retrospective method under which prior years’ results will be revised to give effect to the value
of options granted in fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 1995.
In addition, the Company elected to change its method of accounting for Treasury Stock. The
Company previously accounted for share repurchases as if the Treasury
Stock was constructively
retired by reducing Common Stock and Retained Earnings within Shareholders’ Equity. Our new method
of accounting will present Treasury Stock as a separate component of Shareholders’ Equity. We
believe that our new accounting method is preferable as it more closely depicts the underlying intent
of the share repurchases.
The Company is providing this Form 8-K to present only those sections in its Form 10-K filing
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, that are conformed for the adoption of the accounting
changes described above. For reference, the Company has included the entire text of the affected
sections. Other than as presented here, the sections of the Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2005
remain as previously filed. This Form 8-K does not purport to provide an update or a discussion of
any other developments at the Company subsequent to the original Form 10-K filing.
These financial statements, conformed for the changes, will become the historical financial
statements of The Procter & Gamble Company and consolidated subsidiaries for currently open and
future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly
