ITEM 2.02.  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

 

(a).                               This amended periodic report on Form 8-K/A is required to correct an error to Exhibit 99 furnished with the January 25, 2006 Form 8-K.  This error occurred during the process of converting that Exhibit into electronic format.  Specifically, the press release furnished as Exhibit 99 included the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for Bemis Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries for the years ending December 31, 2005 and 2004.  The first section of that Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows (Cash flows from operating activities) contained a line item for which the narrative description was missing to explain the amounts which were correctly displayed.  The omitted narrative description was, “Changes in working capital, net of effects of acquisitions” to align with the correctly displayed amounts $(23,524) and $(15,307) for the years ending December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

 

 

 

ITEM 9.01.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

 

(c).                               The January 25, 2006, Bemis Company, Inc. press release for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005, is furnished as Exhibit 99 to this report.
