Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On July 26, 2006, ConocoPhillips issued a press release announcing the
company's financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. A
copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated
herein by reference. Additional financial and operating information about the
quarter is furnished as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3 hereto and incorporated herein by
reference. The press release contains a measure, "effective tax rate," that is
not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). We have included this non-GAAP financial measure because, in
management's opinion, excluding the favorable impact from certain tax
legislation changes in Canada and Texas in calculating our effective tax rate
for the second quarter of 2006 is a better indicator of the company's ongoing
effective tax rate and is therefore more useful in comparing the Company's
effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2006 with prior and future periods.
