Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Participants of the Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan and the Pension Committee of Johnson & Johnson:

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 Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan (the “Plan”) at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s 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 Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s 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

Notes to Financial Statements

| 1. |
| --- |
| General |
| The Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan (the “Plan”) is a participant directed defined
contribution plan which was established on June 1, 1982 for eligible salaried and non-union
hourly employees of Johnson & Johnson (“J&J” or the “Company”) and certain domestic
subsidiaries. The Plan was designed to enhance the existing retirement program of eligible
employees. The funding of the Plan is made through employee and Company contributions. The
assets of the Plan are held in the Johnson & Johnson Pension and Savings Plans Master Trust
(the “Trust”). The Plan’s interest in the Trust is allocated to the Plan based upon the
total of each participant’s share in 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 salaried employees and certain non-union hourly, part-time and
temporary employees can contribute to the Plan, as there is no service requirement for
employee contributions. |
| Contributions are made to the Plan by participants through payroll deductions and by the
Company on behalf of the participants. Participating employees may contribute a minimum of
3% up to a maximum of 50% of eligible pay, as defined by the Plan. Contributions can be
pre-tax, Roth, post-tax or a combination of all three. Pre-tax and Roth contributions may
not exceed the smaller of (i) 50% of a participant’s base salary (and 1 / 2 paid commissions,
if applicable) or (ii) $15,500 for 2008. The maximum contributions to a participant’s
account including participant pre-tax, Roth and post-tax contributions and the employer
match is $46,000 for 2008. |
| Participants age 50 and over are eligible to contribute extra pre-tax and/or Roth
contributions (“catch-up contributions”) above the annual IRS limitations up to $5,000 in
2008. 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, Roth and post-tax
contribution percentages that participants have elected. |
| After one year of service, participants receive an employer matching contribution equal to
75% of the first 6% of a participant’s contributions. The employer matching contribution is
composed of cash and invested in the current investment fund mix chosen by the participant. |
| Investments |
| Participants may invest in one or more of the nine investment funds offered by the Plan.
The investment mix chosen by the participant will apply to employee and Company matching
contributions. Rollover contributions are invested at the election of the participant. |
| Dividends are automatically reinvested in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund unless specific
elections are made to receive payment via check. The eligibility to receive a dividend
pass-through is contingent on the ownership of shares in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund, |

| which includes shares owned in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan Fund (“ESOP”). The 2008 dividend
pass-through amount paid to participants of $4,035,510 is reflected in benefits paid 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 participant’s interest in his/her 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 of employment, long-term disability or
retirement. Participants can elect to defer payment until age 70 1 / 2 if account balances are
greater than $5,000. Distributions are paid either in a lump sum payment or installment
payments made on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis over a period of years selected by
the participant. |
| A participant’s account may be distributed to his/her beneficiaries in lump sum, in
installments or maintained in the Trust upon the participant’s death only if the
beneficiary is a spouse.
Otherwise, it is paid to the beneficiary in a lump sum, either directly or rolled over to
an IRA. |
| Participants are allowed to withdraw an amount equal to their pre-August 1, 2003 post-tax
contributions and earnings thereon, and unmatched post-tax contributions made after August
1, 2003 by the employee and earnings thereon, at any time. Participants may withdraw
pre-tax, Roth or post-tax matched contributions, and the employer match after August 1,
2003, only upon meeting certain hardship conditions. The benefits to which participants are
entitled are the amounts provided by contributions (Company and participant) and investment
earnings thereon, including net realized and unrealized gains and losses which have been
allocated to the participant’s 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 lump sum
distributions other than a hardship. |
| Administrative Expenses |
| All third-party administrative expenses are paid by the Plan, unless otherwise provided for
by the Company. |
| Participant Loans |
| Participants may borrow up to a maximum of 50% of their account balance. The minimum loan
amount is $1,000 and the maximum amount of all outstanding loans cannot exceed $50,000.
Loans bear an interest rate of prime plus 1% and are repayable within one to five years.
Due to acquisitions, there are some existing loans extending beyond five years, which must
be allowed to continue once transferred into the Johnson & Johnson Savings Plan. The
collateralized balance in the participant’s account bears interest at rates that range from
3.8% to 11.33%. Principal and interest is paid ratably through payroll deductions for
active employees. Loans must be paid within two months following retirement or termination
of employment with the Company. If the loan is not repaid in full, the unpaid balance, plus
accrued interest, will be deducted from the participant’s account balance and reported to the IRS as a distribution. |

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.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
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. Certain amounts in the prior year financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current
presentation.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition of the Trust
The Plan’s 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, models or bids from brokers/dealers.
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 participant’s 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 fund’s net asset value for a single
unit which is computed by adding the value of the fund’s 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
Plan’s 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 may 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 Plan 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 foreign exchange contracts
outstanding at December 31, 2008 and 2007 in various currencies. At December 31, 2008 and
2007, the notional amount outstanding for these contracts in the Trust was $21,719,902 and
$7,090,172, respectively, and the net currency gain/(loss) recognized during 2008 and 2007
by the Trust was $137,863 and $31,996 respectively. The Trust held no other material
derivative financial instruments at December 31, 2008 and 2007. |
| In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities , an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, to enhance the
disclosure regarding the Trust’s derivative and hedging activities, to improve the
transparency of financial reporting. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have no impact on the Trust’s
financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. |
| Fair Value Measurements |
| In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and
liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS 157 establishes the following: |

| • | Defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date, and establishes a framework for measuring fair value; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Establishes a three-tier hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the
transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the
measurement date; |
| • | Eliminates large position discounts for financial instruments quoted in active
markets; and |
| • | Expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value. |

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.

| The Plan adopted SFAS No. 157 in the fiscal first quarter of 2008, the impact of which is
discussed in Note 4. |
| --- |
| Use of Estimates |
| The preparation of the Plan’s 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, fixed income securities and other investments. 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. |

Master Trust. The Plan holds approximately 54.70% and 51.94%, respectively of the Trust’s

| The Plan’s valuation methodologies were applied to all of the trust investments carried at
fair value, effective January 1, 2007. The Plan has an established and well-documented
process for determining fair values. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where
available. If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon models
that primarily use, as inputs, market-based or independently sourced market parameters,
including yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, equity or debt prices, foreign
exchange rates and credit curves. |
| While the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other
market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the
fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair
value at the reporting date. |
| Valuation Hierarchy |
| SFAS 157 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value
measurements. The three levels are defined based on the inputs to the valuation methodology
as follows: |

| • | Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Level 2 — quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets and
inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly,
for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |

• Level 3 — inputs are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These are usually negotiated prices between two parties.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the investments measured at fair value.

| • | Short-term investments — Cash and quoted short-term instruments are valued at the
closing price or the amount held on deposit by the custodian bank. Other investments are
through investment vehicles valued using the Net Asset Value (NAV) provided by the
administrator of the fund. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by
the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. The
NAV is a quoted price in a market that is not active and classified as Level 2. |
| --- | --- |
| • | U.S. government & agency issues — A limited number of these investments are valued at
the closing price reported on the major market on which the individual securities are
traded. Where quoted prices are available in an active market, the investments are
classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not
available for the specific security, then fair values are estimated by using pricing
models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows.
When quoted market prices for a security are not available in an active market, they are
classified as Level 2. |
| • | Corporate Debt — A limited number of these investments are valued at the closing price
reported on the major market on which the individual securities are traded. Where quoted
prices are available in an active market, the investments are classified as Level 1. If
quoted market prices are not available for the specific security, then fair values are
estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics
or discounted cash flows and are classified as Level 2. Level 3 debt instruments are priced
based on unobservable inputs, usually negotiated values agreed to by the interested
parties. |
| • | Common and preferred stocks — Common stocks are valued at the closing price reported
on the major market on which the individual securities are traded. Substantially all common
stock is classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. |
| • | Common Collective Trusts — The investments are public investment vehicles valued
using the Net Asset Value (NAV) provided by the fund administrator. The NAV is based on the
value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided
by the number of shares outstanding. Assets in the Level 2 category have a quoted market
price in a market that is not active. |

| • | Guaranteed insurance contracts (GICs) — Traditional GICs are valued at fair value by
discounting the related cash flows based on current yields of similar instruments with
comparable durations while considering the creditworthiness of the issuer, and are
classified as Level 3. The fair value of the synthetic guaranteed investment contract is
based on the underlying investments held in separate account portfolios. The underlying
investments are U.S. Government, Agencies, Fixed Income and Asset-Backed Securities. The
synthetic guaranteed investment contract and related investments are classified as Level 2.
The synthetic GIC contracts had a fair value of $590,498,037 and $454,418,527 at December
31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. See Note 5 of these financial statements for further
information on these contracts. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Other assets — Other assets are represented primarily by limited partnerships, as well
as commercial loans and commercial mortgages that are not classified as corporate debt.
Other assets that are exchange listed and actively traded are classified as Level 1 while
inactively traded assets are classified as Level 2. Most limited partnerships represent
investments in private equity and similar funds that are valued by the general partners.
These, as well as any other assets valued using unobservable inputs, are classified as
Level 3. |

Participant Loans
Certain investments representing outstanding participant loans are included only at the
Plan level. These are categorized as Level 3 for FAS reporting purposes, since the fair
market value is the outstanding principal of the loans and related accrued interest
receivable. Therefore, the only changes in the loan value for the year are the new
issuances of loans less the loan retirements during the year.
The Plan had participant loans outstanding at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 of
$82.6 million and $77 million, respectively. The net increase of $5.6 million for 2008
represents loan issuances of $47.3 million, less loan retirements and payments toward
outstanding loans of $41.7 million.
5. Guaranteed and Synthetic Investment Contracts
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 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
$968,022,313 and $668,248,591 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The fair value
of the traditional GICs, as determined by using discounted cash flows, was $991,565,725 and
$676,465,649 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, 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 $603,635,992 and $449,244,716 at December 31,
2008 and 2007, respectively. The fair value of the synthetic GICs is
based on the fair value of the underlying pool of securities, and at
December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $590,498,037 and $454,418,527, 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, 2008 and 2007 was 5.20% and 5.03%, 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; and the initiation of an extended termination (immunization) of
the synthetic GIC contract. |
| The average market value yield of the contracts for 2008 and 2007 was 5.07% and 4.86%,
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 2008 and 2007 was 5.10% and 4.80%, 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 Plan’s 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 |

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 Plan’s ability to transact with the issuer of a GIC at its contract value
with participants, is probable. |

| 6. | 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 Plan’s tax counsel believe that
the Plan is currently designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC. |
| 7. | 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, 2008 the total market value of investments in the institutional
commingled funds for the Plan managed by State Street was $582,538,959. |
| | The Plan also invests in shares of the Company. The Company is the Plan sponsor and,
therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. As of December 31,
2008 and 2007, the market value of investments in Johnson &
Johnson Common Stock was $2,015,957,762 and $2,180,237,427,
respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Plan made purchases of $205,289,622 and sales
of $125,995,251 of the Company’s common stock. The total dividend income received during
2008 was $58,706,815. |
