"GAAP" refers to financial information presented in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

This press release includes historical non-GAAP financial
measures, as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, with respect to the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Allergan believes that its
presentation of historical non-GAAP financial measures provides useful
supplementary information to investors. The presentation of historical
non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation
from or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

In this press release, Allergan reported the non-GAAP financial
measure "adjusted earnings" and related "adjusted diluted earnings per
share." Allergan uses adjusted earnings to enhance the investor's
overall understanding of the financial performance and prospects for
the future of Allergan's core business activities. Specifically,
Allergan believes that a report of adjusted earnings provides
consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates the comparison
of results of core business operations between its current, past and
future periods. Adjusted earnings is one of the primary indicators
management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods.
Allergan also uses adjusted earnings for evaluating management
performance for compensation purposes.

In this press release, Allergan reported sales performance using
the non-GAAP financial measure of constant currency sales. Constant
currency sales represent current period reported sales adjusted for
the translation effect of changes in average foreign exchange rates
between the current period and the corresponding period in the prior
year. Allergan calculates the currency effect by comparing adjusted
current period reported amounts, calculated using the monthly average
foreign exchange rates for the corresponding period in the prior year,
to the actual current period reported amounts. Management refers to
growth rates at constant currency so that sales results can be viewed
without the impact of changing foreign currency exchange rates,
thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of Allergan's sales.
Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other
currencies, the growth at constant currency rates will be higher or
lower, respectively, than growth reported at actual exchange rates.
