CHIRON REVISES FULL-YEAR 2004 PRO-FORMA EARNINGS FROM 70
CENTS TO 67 CENTS PER SHARE, GAAP EARNINGS FROM 32 CENTS TO 28
CENTS PER SHARE

—Chiron will restate second-quarter and third-quarter 2004 financial statements—

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Tuesday, March 8, 2005 — Chiron Corporation (NASDAQ: CHIR) today announced that it has revised its fourth-quarter and year-end December 31, 2004, financial results, previously released on January 26, 2005.  The company also announced that it will restate its second-quarter and third-quarter 2004 financial statements in connection with a revenue recognition adjustment for certain travel vaccine sales.  Specifically, the company has determined that certain sales of the travel vaccine recorded as revenues in the second quarter of 2004 should not have been recorded as revenue at that time, and that portions of those sales should have been recorded as revenues in the third and fourth quarters of 2004 and possibly in later quarters.  The revisions and restatements, which include adjustments to revenues and expenses, and reclassifications of certain balance sheet accounts, were identified during the company’s ongoing year-end financial statement review and Section 404 Sarbanes-Oxley review.

Chiron also today announced that it has identified three material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, one related to the revenue recognition for certain travel vaccine sales described above, one related to booking of entries to tax accounts, including computational errors, and one related to the reporting of legal expense accruals.  Chiron will report on its final assessment of its internal controls over financial reporting in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.  Chiron’s year-end financial statement review and Section 404 Sarbanes-Oxley review are continuing, and there can be no assurance that the company and its external auditors will not identify further material weaknesses.  In addition, there can be no assurance that the company will not identify further adjustments to its previously announced financial information.

Year-End December 31, 2004, Financial Results

For the year ended December 31, 2004, Chiron reported revised pro-forma income from continuing operations of $127 million, or $0.67 per share, a decrease of $0.03 per share from financial results as reported on January 26, 2005.  On a GAAP basis, Chiron reported revised income from continuing operations of $54 million, or $0.28 per share, a decrease of $0.04 per share from financial results as reported on January 26, 2005.

Revised revenues for 2004 reflect a decrease of $2.5 million from financial results as reported on January 26, 2005 but remain at $1.7 billion after rounding.  Chiron has also identified an additional $5 million in expenses incurred in the year ended December 31, 2004 and not included in the results of operations previously announced on January 26, 2005.

Fourth-Quarter 2004 Financial Results

For the fourth quarter of 2004, Chiron reported a revised pro-forma loss from continuing operations of $7 million, or a loss of $0.04 per share, consistent with the loss of $0.04 per share reported on January 26, 2005.  On a GAAP basis, Chiron reported a revised loss from continuing operations of $23 million, or a loss of $0.12 per share, consistent with the loss of $0.12 per share reported on January 26, 2005.

Chiron reported revised revenues for the fourth quarter of 2004 of $434 million, an increase of $6 million from financial results as reported on January 26, 2005.  Chiron has also identified an additional $6 million in expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of 2004 and not included in the results of operations previously announced on January 26, 2005.

Second-Quarter and Third-Quarter 2004 Financial Results; Unavailability of Registration Statements

Chiron will restate the financial statements included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for each of the second quarter of 2004 and third quarter of 2004.  Chiron’s previously issued financial statements included in those reports should no longer be relied upon.  In addition, the availability of Chiron’s registration statements relating to its 1 5/8% convertible debentures due 2033 and 2 ¾% convertible debentures due 2034 is suspended until such time as Chiron provides the holders with notice that such registration statements are again available.

Chiron management uses pro-forma financial statements to gain an understanding of the company’s operating performance on a comparative basis.  Pro-forma amounts exclude certain revenue items and special items relating to certain acquisitions, which may not be indicative of the company’s trends or potential future performance.  Please refer to the tables at the end of this document for more detail on these items and a reconciliation of

the pro-forma information to GAAP financial statements.  All references to per-share amounts are per diluted share.

For revised financial results for the year ended December 31, 2004, and for the fourth quarter of 2004, please refer to the tables at the end of this document or visit our website at www.chiron.com.  Chiron intends to file amendments to its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004, to include the restated financial statements mentioned above.
