Exhibit 99.2

Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and related notes present the historical consolidated balance sheet and statements of earnings of the Company adjusted to reflect the Company’s acquisition of 45% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Alliance Boots GmbH (“Alliance Boots”), in exchange for $4.0 billion in cash and 83.4 million shares of Walgreens common stock (the “first step transaction”) and certain related financing transactions (together with the first step transaction, referred to as the “Transaction”). The pro forma adjustments related to the Transaction include:

 

   

the consideration paid in the first step transaction, which includes both the 45% investment in Alliance Boots and the Company’s right, but not the obligation, to acquire the remaining 55% interest in Alliance Boots (the “call option”), pursuant to the Purchase and Option Agreement dated June 18, 2012, by and among the Company, Alliance Boots and AB Acquisitions Holdings Limited (the “Purchase and Option Agreement”);

   

the impact of preliminary fair value adjustments to the underlying assets and liabilities of Alliance Boots;

   

the conversion of the Alliance Boots financial information from the applicable International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”) to the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) and the translation of British pounds sterling to US dollars;

   

the impact of the borrowings under the unsecured 364-Day Bridge Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 23, 2012, described in our From 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 26, 2012 (the “bridge term loan”) used to fund the first step transaction; and

   

the removal of results of Galenica Ltd. (“Galenica”) and related amounts from the Alliance Boots historical financial statements; the Company’s initial investment and the call option excludes Alliance Boots’ interest in Galenica, and the Company will not have any risks and rewards nor share in the profits of Galenica.

The pro forma adjustments related to the Transaction do not reflect the offering of long-term debt financing or the use of any proceeds in connection therewith (including, without limitation, repayment of the bridge term loan). Moreover, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information does not assume the exercise of the call option and accordingly does not give effect to the acquisition of the remaining 55% of Alliance Boots.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on May 31, 2012. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of earnings for the nine months ended May 31, 2012 and for the year ended August 31, 2011, give effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on September 1, 2010, the first day of the Company’s 2011 fiscal year.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information included herein is derived from the Company’s historical financial statements and those of Alliance Boots and is based on certain assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, which are described in the notes below. We have not completed a final valuation analysis necessary to determine the fair market values of all of Alliance Boots’ assets and liabilities or the allocation of our purchase price between the investment and the call option. As described in note 3 below, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to reflect the fair value of those assets and liabilities.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on August 31 and the Alliance Boots fiscal year ends on March 31. As the fiscal years differ by more than 93 days, financial information for Alliance Boots for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2011 and the nine months ended June 30, 2012 has been used in preparation of the pro forma financial statements. The Alliance Boots financial information for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2011 was derived by adding the unaudited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the six month period ended September 30, 2011 to the audited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the year ended March 31, 2011 and deducting the unaudited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the six months ended September 30, 2010. The Alliance Boots financial information for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was derived by adding the unaudited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to the audited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the year ended March 31, 2012 and deducting the unaudited consolidated income statement of Alliance Boots for the six months ended September 30, 2011.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of earnings for the nine months ended May 31, 2012, includes the unaudited consolidated statement of earnings of the Company for the nine months ended May 31, 2012, as adjusted to include the equity in earnings of Alliance Boots for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and the impacts of the Transaction. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of earnings for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2011, includes the audited consolidated statement of earnings of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2011, as adjusted to include equity in earnings of Alliance Boots for the twelve months ended September 30, 2011 and the impacts of the Transaction.

Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The historical financial information of Alliance Boots was prepared in accordance with IFRS and prepared in British pounds sterling. The unaudited pro forma financial statements include adjustments to convert the financial statements of Alliance Boots from IFRS to US GAAP and to translate the British pounds sterling amounts into US dollars.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Transaction, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statements of earnings, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with (1) the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011, the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended May 31, 2012, and the notes relating thereto, the discussion under “Part II – Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2011 and the discussion under “Part I – Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 31, 2012, as amended, and (2) the audited consolidated financial statements of Alliance Boots for the years ended March 31, 2012, March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, and the notes relating thereto, contained in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 6, 2012, as amended by the Company’s Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 10, 2012.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is not intended to represent or be indicative of what the combined company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the Transaction been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not include the impacts of any revenue, cost or other operating synergies that may result from the investment in Alliance Boots or any related one-time Transaction costs. One-time Transaction related costs of $84 million for financing, legal and other professional services were incurred through August 31, 2012 and additional costs are expected in fiscal 2013.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts are Presented in US $ Millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

1. Equity Investment in Alliance Boots – Balance Sheet Adjustments

The investment in Alliance Boots will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company acquired its 45% investment in Alliance Boots through the payment of $4.0 billion in cash and the issuance of 83.4 million Company shares with a value of $3.0 billion based on the August 2, 2012 closing price of $35.75. As part of the investment, the Company received the call option, which allows it to acquire the remaining 55% in Alliance Boots in exchange for an additional £3.1 billion ($4.9 billion as of September 10, 2012) in cash as well as an additional 144.3 million Company shares, subject to certain specified adjustments. The call option can be exercised beginning six months prior to the third anniversary of the first step transaction (February 2, 2015) and ending on the third anniversary (August 2, 2015).

The following details the adjustments to the pro forma balance sheet:

 

  (a) Reflects the $4.0 billion cash portion of the consideration paid to the shareholders of Alliance Boots.

 

  (b) Reflects the Company’s equity method investment in Alliance Boots which was determined based on the preliminary allocation of the total purchase price of $7.0 billion to the equity method investment and the call option based on their relative fair values.

 

  (c) Reflects the Company’s call option to acquire the remaining 55% interest in Alliance Boots which was determined based on the preliminary allocation of the total purchase price of $7.0 billion to the equity method investment and the call option based on their relative fair values.

 

  (d) Reflects the increase in common stock and paid in capital resulting from the issuance of 2.8 million new shares and the issuance of 80.6 million shares from treasury stock.

As noted above, the transaction date fair value of $7.0 billion of consideration transferred, which consisted of a combination of cash and Company shares, was allocated to the equity method investment and call option. The preliminary allocation was based upon an independent appraisal of the preliminary fair values of the equity method investment and call option. The call option was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation using assumptions surrounding Walgreens equity value as well as the potential impacts of the certain provisions of the Purchase and Option Agreement dated June 18, 2012 by and among the Company, Alliance Boots and AB Acquisitions Holdings Limited that are described in the Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 19, 2012. The preliminary allocation resulted in $6.1 billion being allocated to the equity method investment and $0.9 billion being allocated to the call option based on their relative fair values.

3. Equity Method Step-Up

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet reflects the Company’s equity investment in Alliance Boots, excluding Galenica and related amounts. Under the equity method of accounting, the net assets acquired in the purchase form the basis of the Company’s investment in Alliance Boots. The difference between the Company’s acquired net assets and its 45% basis in the total historical net assets of Alliance Boots is required to be allocated to the fair value of the net assets acquired in order to determine the amount of income from the equity method investment. The Company’s investment is recorded as “Investment in Alliance Boots” in the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as follows:

  (i) The inventories step-up is expensed as the acquired inventory is sold. The incremental amortization expense on property and equipment and definite lived intangible assets was calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining useful life.

The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined at a later date and is dependent on a number of factors, including the final evaluation of the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. An independent third-party appraiser assisted in performing a preliminary valuation of these assets and the purchase price allocation will be adjusted upon a final valuation. The final purchase price allocation may result in a material change in the fair value of the net assets acquired and consequently in the value of non-amortizable goodwill recognized as part of the Company’s investment in Alliance Boots. Any change in fair value adjustments, specifically any reallocation between definite and indefinite lived intangible assets, may result in a material change in the amortization shown above and, accordingly, in the Company’s share of profit from its equity investment in Alliance Boots.

5. Effects of the Transaction

To finance a portion of the first step transaction, the Company entered into a $3.0 billion bridge term loan with various financial institutions. This pro forma adjustment related to the financing consists of the following:

 

  (a) Adjustment to reflect the incremental interest expense under the bridge loan for the nine months ended May 31, 2012 and for the year ended August 31, 2011 as if the loan had been obtained as of September 1, 2010. The interest adjustment was estimated using an effective interest rate of 1.496%, which was based on the one month LIBOR plus a margin spread as charged in the bridge loan agreement.

 

6. Income Taxes

The income tax benefit reflects the tax impact of adjustments to the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of earnings which were tax affected at the combined U.S. federal and state statutory rate of 37.8% applied by the Company.
