design and expansion of our American Girl Place®retail stores, partially offset by lower incentive compensation,
lower advertising expenses and favorable changes in currency exchange rates. Income before income taxes in 2004
was negatively impacted by a pre-tax charge of $16.2 million, primarily related to the elimination of approximately
285 positions as a result of headcount reductions, and integration of the Matchbox®and Tyco®R/C business into
the Hot Wheels®business in California, partially offset by net favorable legal settlements.
Net income in 2005 was negatively impacted by incremental tax expense of $107.0 million resulting from
Mattel’s decision to repatriate $2.4 billion in previously unremitted foreign earnings under AJCA, partially offset
by $38.6 million of tax benefit primarily relating to audit settlements with certain tax authorities in both the US
and abroad. Net income in 2004 was positively impacted by a $65.1 million tax benefit related to an audit
settlement with the IRS.
Shares repurchased under Mattel’s share repurchase program resulted in a benefit to Mattel’s earnings per
share in 2005 when compared to 2004, by reducing the average number of common shares outstanding. Since
inception of the share repurchase program in July 2003, Mattel has repurchased 56.3 million shares, representing
13% of common shares outstanding.
