1st earnings for Abbott spin-off show 86% jump

August 11, 2004

BY FRANCINE KNOWLES Business Reporter

Hospital products maker Hospira Inc. reported second-quarter net income of $125.8 million, up 86 percent from the year-ago period, as it released its first earnings report since being spun off by Abbott Laboratories in April.

Lake Forest-based Hospira reported earnings per share of 80 cents, up from 43 cents. That includes a gain of 26 cents a share related to the discontinuance of one of its U.S. post-retirement employee benefit programs and non-recurring expenses of 2 cents per share related to building the company's independent infrastructure.
