Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Participants, the Pension Committee and the Compensation & Benefits Committee of the Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan for Union Represented Employees:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan for Union Represented Employees (the Plan) at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan for Union Represented Employees
Notes to Financial Statements
| 1. |
| --- |
| General |
| The Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan for Union Represented Employees (the Plan) is a
participant directed defined contribution plan which was established on January 1, 1993 by
Johnson & Johnson (J&J or the Company). The Plan was designed to enhance the existing
retirement program of eligible employees covered under collective bargaining agreements with
the Company. The funding of the Plan is made through employee and Company contributions.
The net assets of the Plan are held in the Johnson & Johnson Pension and Savings Plans
Master Trust (the Trust). Transactions in the Trust are
executed by the Trustee, State
Street Trust Company (State Street or Trustee). The Plans interest in the Trust is
allocated to the Plan based upon the total of each participants share of the Trust. |
| This brief description of the Plan is provided for general information purposes only.
Participants should refer to the Plan document for complete information. |
| Contributions |
| In general, full-time employees 21 years or older represented by a collective bargaining unit participating in
the Plan with at least one year of eligible service can contribute to the Plan. |
| Contributions are made to the Plan by participants through payroll deductions and by the
Company on behalf of participants. Participating employees may contribute a minimum of
$0.20 per hour up to a maximum of $3.00 per hour of the first forty hours worked in each
payroll week, depending on the negotiated contract rate. All contributions are on a pre-tax
basis and may not exceed $15,500 in 2007. |
| Participant contributions are invested in any of the four investment funds offered by the
Plan at the direction of the participating employees. |
| Effective July 1, 2002, participants age 50 and over are eligible to contribute extra
pre-tax contributions (catch-up contribution) above the
annual Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limitations up to
$5,000 in 2007. Participants can elect an amount to be contributed from each paycheck as
their catch-up contribution. This amount will be in addition to the pre-tax cents per hour
contribution participants have elected. |
| After one year of eligible service, the Company contributes to the Plan an amount equal to
50% of the employee directed contributions on the first $0.20 to
$1.50 per hour of the participants contribution (depending
on the negotiated collective bargaining agreement), directly into the Johnson & Johnson
Stock Fund. Participants have the option to elect that the Company matching contribution be
invested in the current investment fund mix chosen by the participant. |
| Investments |
| Participants may invest in one or more of the four investment funds offered by the Plan.
The investment mix chosen by the participant will apply to employee contributions while
Company matching contributions are invested in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund unless
participants elect to diversify. |
| In the third quarter of 1998, J&J incorporated a dividend pass-through feature into the
Plan. Effective January 1, 2002, dividends are automatically reinvested in the Johnson &
Johnson Stock Fund unless specific elections are made to receive payment via check. |

Notes to Financial Statements
| The 2007
dividend pass-through amount paid to participants of $5,410 is
included in payments to
participants in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits. |
| --- |
| For all other funds the Trustee reinvests all dividend and interest income. |
| Vesting |
| A participants plan account, including participant contributions, Company contributions and
earnings thereon, is always fully vested. As a result, there are no forfeitures under the
Plan. |
| Payment of Benefits |
| Benefits are paid to participants upon termination, retirement, long-term disability or
death. Participants can elect to defer payment until age 65. Distributions are paid in a
lump sum payment for all fund balances. |
| A participants account may be distributed to his/her beneficiaries upon the participants
death in the same manner described for participants. |
| Participants may withdraw pre-tax contributions only upon meeting certain hardship
conditions. Participants are entitled to benefits provided by contributions (Company and
participant) and investment earnings thereon, including realized and unrealized gains and
losses, which have been allocated to the participants account balance. Participants have
the option of receiving all or part of their balance in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund as
either cash or in shares of Johnson & Johnson Common Stock (plus cash for fractional shares)
for distributions other than a hardship. |
| Administrative Expenses |
| All third-party administrative expenses are paid by the Plan, unless otherwise provided for
by the Company. |
| Termination |
| Although it has not expressed an intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan
to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions of ERISA. In the event of a partial or full Plan termination, all Plan funds
must be used exclusively for the benefit of the Plan participants, in
that each participant
would receive the respective value in their account. |

| Basis of Accounting |
| The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. |
| Investment Valuation and Income Recognition of the Trust |
| The Plans interest in the Trust is stated at fair value. The majority of
the securities are traded on a national securities exchange and are valued
at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year.
Securities not traded on a national securities exchange are valued using
external pricing vendors, which may include the investment manager.
Estimated fair market value for these securities, primarily fixed income,
are typically made using pricing matrices or models. Where readily
available, multiple pricing sources are used by the custodian bank to
verify these estimates. |
| As the investment funds contain various underlying assets such as stock and short-term
investments, the participants account balance is reported in units of participation, which
allows for immediate transfers in and out of the funds. The purchase or redemption price of the
units is determined by the Trustee, based on the current market value of the underlying
assets of the funds. Each funds net asset value is the value of a single unit, which is
computed by adding the value of the funds investments, cash and other assets, and
subtracting liabilities, then dividing the result by the number of units outstanding. |
| Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Gains and losses on
the sale of investment securities are determined on the average cost method. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as earned on an
accrual basis. |
| Net Appreciation (Depreciation) |
| The Plan presents, in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits, the
Plans interest in the net appreciation (depreciation) of the fair value of investments held
in the Trust, which consists of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the underlying
investments and realized gains and losses on sales of investments. |
| Payment of Benefits |
| Benefits are recorded when paid. |
| Derivatives |
| The Trust will invest in securities from time to time that are denominated in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. To hedge against adverse changes in foreign exchange rates
relating to non-U.S. dollar denominated investments, the Trust can enter into forward
foreign exchange contracts. Forward foreign exchange contracts qualify as a derivative
under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). The holder is exposed to credit risk for
nonperformance and to market risk for changes in interest and currency rates. Those
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the Statements of Net Assets Available For Benefits. The Trust attempts to
mitigate this credit risk by utilizing the same policies in making commitments and
conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments, and through structured
trading with reputable parties and continual monitoring procedures. Accordingly the Trust
does not anticipate losses for nonperformance. The Trust does not require collateral or
other security to support forward foreign exchange contracts. The Trust accounts for
forward foreign exchange contracts at fair value. The Trust had forward exchange contracts
outstanding at December 31, 2007 and 2006 in various currencies. At December 31, 2007 and
2006, the notional amount outstanding for these contracts in the Trust was $7,090,172 and
$3,162,281, respectively, and the net currency (loss)/gain recognized during 2007 and 2006
by the Trust was $31,996 and ($94,770) respectively. The Trust held no other material
derivative financial instruments at December 31, 2007 and 2006. |

| Fair Value Measurements |
| --- |
| In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements . This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007 and the Plan will adopt the statement and become effective in 2008. The Plan believes that the adoption
of SFAS No. 157 will not have a material effect on its
Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and Statement
of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits. |
| Use of Estimates |
| --- |
| The preparation of the Plans financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of net assets available for benefits at the date of the financial
statements and the changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period
and when applicable disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
| Risks and Uncertainties |
| The Plan provides for various investment options in funds which can invest in a combination
of equity and fixed income securities. Investments are exposed to various risks, such as
interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain
investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could
materially affect participants account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements
of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available
for Benefits. |
| Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts |
| On December 29, 2005, the FASB released FASB Staff
Position Nos. AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment
Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide
and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans (the FSP), which became
effective for the Plan on December 31, 2006. The FSP requires that investment contracts
held by a defined-contribution plan be reported at fair value. However, contract value is
the relevant measurement criteria for that portion of the net assets available for benefits
of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts
because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate
permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. As required by the FSP, the Statements
of Net Assets Available for Benefits present the fair value of the investment contracts as
well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value
to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is
prepared on a contract value basis. |

| Effective January 1, 2003, the assets of the Plan are maintained in the Johnson & Johnson
Pension and Savings Plans Master Trust. The Plan holds approximately 0.30% and 0.32%,
respectively, of the Trusts net assets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. The Plans sole
investment is its interest in the Trust and therefore is greater than 5% of Plan assets. |

| The Trust holds investments in traditional and synthetic guaranteed investment contracts
(GICs). The weighted average insurance financial strength rating of the insurers for these
contracts is AA. These investments are recorded at their fair values. The traditional
GICs contract value represents contributions made under the contract and reinvested income,
less any withdrawals. The synthetic GICs are recorded at the wrapper contract value, which
represents the value of the underlying assets owned by the Trust plus the amount designed to
smooth the impact of normal market fluctuations on those assets. Both the traditional and
synthetic GICs are fully benefit-responsive. Participants may under most circumstances
direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value.
Currently no reserves are needed against contract values for credit risk of the contract
issuers or otherwise. |
| The traditional GICs provide a fixed return on principal over a specified period of time
through fully benefit-responsive contracts issued by an insurance company, which are backed
by the general account of that insurer. The contract value of the traditional GICs was
$668,248,591 and $690,625,785 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of
the traditional GICs, as determined by using discounted cash flows, was $676,465,649 and
$685,036,934 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. |
| The synthetic GIC provides a return over a period of time through a fully benefit-responsive
contract, or wrapper contract, which is backed by the underlying assets owned by the Trust.
The portfolio of assets, overall of AA+ credit quality, underlying the synthetic GIC
includes mortgages, corporate, and United States Treasury Notes and Bonds. The contract
value of the synthetic GIC was $449,244,716 and |
Folio -9- /Folio
PAGEBREAK
Table of Contents

Notes to Financial Statements
| | $377,024,858 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The fair value of the synthetic GICs, as determined by using discounted cash flows, was
$454,418,527 and $378,480,691 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. |
| --- | --- |
| | The crediting interest rates for the synthetic GIC is calculated on a quarterly basis using
the contract value, and the market value, yield and duration of the underlying securities,
and cannot be less than zero. The crediting interest rates for the traditional GICs are
agreed to in advance with the issuer. The crediting interest rate for the contracts at
December 31, 2007 and 2006 was 5.03% and 4.53%, respectively. Effective April 2007, the
crediting rate is calculated on a monthly basis, and no longer on a quarterly basis. In the
event of extreme changes in interest rates, the crediting rate may be adjusted to reflect
current market condition |
| | Key factors that could influence future average interest crediting rates include, but are
not limited to: participant directed cash flows; changes in interest rates; total return
performance of the fair market value bond strategies underlying the synthetic GIC contract;
default or credit failures of any of the securities, investment contracts, or other
investments held in the Plan; the initiation of an extended termination (immunization) of
the synthetic GIC contract. |
| | The average market value yield of the contracts for 2007 and 2006 was 4.86% and 4.35%,
respectively (calculated by taking the average of the monthly market value weighted yields
of the investments). The average yield earned by the contracts that reflects the actual
interest credited to participants for 2007 and 2006 was 4.60% and 4.20%, respectively
(calculated by dividing annualized earnings credited to participants by the market value of
the Interest Income Fund). |
| | There are certain events not initiated by Plan participants that limit the ability of the
Plan to transact with the issuer of a GIC at its contract value. Specific coverage provided
by each traditional GIC and synthetic GIC may be different from each issuer, and can be
found in the individual traditional GIC or synthetic GIC contracts held by the Plan.
Examples of such events include: the Plans failure to qualify under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 as amended; full or partial termination of the Plan; involuntary termination of
employment as a result of a corporate merger, divestiture, spin-off, or other significant
business restructuring, which may include early retirement incentive programs or bankruptcy;
changes to the administration of the Plan which decreases employee or employer
contributions, the establishment of a competing Plan by the plan sponsor, the introduction
of a competing investment option, or other Plan amendment that has not been approved by the
contract issuers; dissemination of a participant communication that is designed to induce
participants to transfer assets from this investment option; events resulting in a material
and adverse financial impact on the contract issuer, including changes in the tax code, laws
or regulations. The Plan Fiduciaries do not believe that the occurrence of any of the
aforementioned events, which would limit the Plans ability to transact with the issuer of a
GIC at its contract value with participants, is probable. |
| 5. | Tax Status |
| | The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated
December 31, 2002, that the Plan and the Trust are in compliance with applicable sections of
the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the
determination letter, the Plan Administrator and the Plans tax counsel believe that the
Plan is currently designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the IRC. |

| 6. | Related Party Transactions |
|---|---|
| Certain Plan investments are shares of institutional commingled funds managed by State | |
| Street Global Advisors, a division of State Street. State Street is the Trustee as defined | |
| by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. | |
| As of December 31, 2007 the total market value of investments for the Plan in the | |
| institutional commingled funds managed by State Street was $1,838,441. | |
| The Plan also invests in shares of the Company, which is managed by State Street Global | |
| Advisors. The Company is the plan sponsor and, therefore, these transactions qualify as | |
| party-in-interest transactions. As of December 31, 2007 the market value of investments in | |
| the Johnson & Johnson Common Stock Fund managed by State Street was $27,237,502. | |
| 7. | Reconciliation of Financial Statements to Form 5500 |
| The net assets available for benefits per the December 31, 2007 and 2006 financial statements, for | |
| the years respectively, is less than the amounts per the Form 5500 by $24,097 and $6,000 resulting | |
| from the adjustment of synthetic GIC values from contract value to fair value. At December 31, | |
| 2007 and 2006, the net assets available for benefits per the Form 5500 were $42,765,887 and | |
| $42,892,836, respectively. |
