Taro Provides Estimates for 2005 Sales and Net Income and Will Restate
2003 and 2004 Results; Non-Cash Adjustments to 2003 and 2004 Will
Reflect New Information Used in Estimating Accounts Receivable
Reserves

    HAWTHORNE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 22, 2006--Taro
Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NASDAQ: TARO) today said that it
expects to report 2005 sales in a range of approximately $295 million
to $305 million, and net income in a range of approximately $14.0
million to $16.0 million. These estimates are subject to change
pending completion of the audit of 2005 results. Although Taro does
not ordinarily provide estimates or guidance on earnings, the Company
is making an exception in light of the extended period for completion
of its 2005 audit.
    The Company had previously reported that during its 2005 audit
process, its independent outside auditors were conducting additional
work related to how the Company estimated its accounts receivable
reserves. During this time, the Company received additional
information, previously unavailable to the Company, from certain
principal customers which is now being used to revise its estimates of
the Company's accounts receivable reserves for prior years. These
adjustments will result in a restatement of financial results for 2003
and 2004.

    Restatement of 2003 and 2004 Results

    Based upon the additional information, Taro's 2003 opening
balances for net accounts receivable will be reduced by approximately
$45.0 - 48.0 million. Sales and pre-tax income for 2003 will each be
reduced by approximately $37.0 - 40.0 million. Sales and pre-tax
income for 2004 will each be reduced by approximately $8.0 - 11.0
million.
    As a result of these adjustments to accounts receivable reserves,
the Company will also fully reserve for its deferred tax assets.
Including this reserve for taxes, the 2003 opening balance for
retained earnings will be reduced by approximately $56.0 - 60.0
million, the net income for 2003 will be reduced by approximately
$28.0 - 30.0 million, and the net income for 2004 will be reduced by
approximately $28.0 - 30.0 million.
    All of these estimates are subject to change pending completion of
the 2005 audit.
    The Company is seeking to complete the restatement and finalize
the audit of its 2005 financial statements as soon as possible. Given
the steps which must be taken, the Company does not believe it will be
in a position to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year
ended December 31, 2005 by June 30, 2006, but believes that it may be
able to file within the 15-day automatic extension period. The Company
intends to make an update announcement regarding the timing of its
Form 20-F filing and to report its earnings for 2005 upon completion
of the audit of its 2005 financial statements. The inability to
provide 2005 audited financial statements to date is resulting in the
Company not being in compliance with certain reporting obligations in
certain of its debt instruments, which the Company is discussing with
its lenders. While no assurances can be given, based in part on such
discussions, on the circumstances giving rise to the delay and on the
estimated financial impact of the anticipated adjustments, the Company
believes it will be able to resolve any non-compliance issues with its
lenders without any material adverse effects.

    Taro is a multinational, science-based pharmaceutical company
dedicated to meeting the needs of its customers through the discovery,
development, manufacturing and marketing of the highest quality
healthcare products.
