Fourth Quarter
US$ in millions, except per share data
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, the IRS issued a revised Revenue Agent Report effectively withdrawing its
proposed adjustment, which would have disallowed the deduction of payments made in fiscal 2008 to settle the
American Express litigation. As a result, during that quarter, we reevaluated and reversed all previously recorded
tax reserves and accrued interest associated with the deductibility of covered litigation expense (“reversal of tax
reserves”), which increased our net income by $627M for that quarter. These adjustments were non-recurring in
nature and not indicative of our financial performance in that or future periods. As such, we believe the
presentation of adjusted financial results excluding these amounts provides a clearer understanding of our
operating performance for that period.

Our financial results for fiscal 2012 were impacted by the following special items:
We believe inclusion of these items was not indicative of our financial performance in that or future periods, as amounts were either non-
recurring,
had
no
cash
impact
or
are
covered
by
the
plan.
As
such,
we
believe
the
presentation
of
our
adjusted
financial
results
provides
a
clearer understanding of our operating performance for that period.

Operating margin is calculated as operating income divided by net operating revenues.

Reversal of tax reserves:
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, we reversed all previously recorded tax reserves and accrued interest
associated
with
the
deductibility
of
covered
litigation
expense,
which
increased
our
net
income
by
$627
million
for
the
fourth
quarter
of
fiscal
2012.
The
reversed
tax
reserves
included
$301
million
originally
recorded
in
the
third
quarter
of
fiscal
2012;
therefore,
the
full-year
impact of this adjustment was only $326 million.
Litigation provision:
During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, we recorded a provision of $4.1 billion and related tax benefits associated
with
litigation
covered
by
the
retrospective
responsibility
plan
(the
“plan”).
Deferred tax adjustment:
During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, we recorded a one-time, non-cash benefit of $208 million resulting
from the remeasurement of our net deferred tax liabilities due to changes in the California state apportionment rules.
