EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q/A”) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 9, 2005 (“Original Filing”), reflects a restatement (“Restatement”) of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Hillenbrand Industries, Inc. as discussed in Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

This Form 10-Q/A only amends and restates Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I of the Original Filing and we have revised language in these Items from the Original Filing to reflect the Restatement. No other information in the Original Filing is amended hereby. The foregoing items have not been updated to reflect other events occurring after the Original Filing or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Other events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been addressed in our reports filed with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, which was previously filed on December 23, 2005.

1.		Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
		Basis of Presentation
		The unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004 as amended and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Hillenbrand”, “the Company”, “we”, “our” and “us” refer to Hillenbrand Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and the terms “Hill-Rom Company”, “Batesville Casket Company”, and derivations thereof, refer to one or more of the subsidiary companies of Hillenbrand that comprise those respective business units. Prior to July 1, 2004, Forethought Financial Services (“Forethought”) was our third operating company. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the financial statements herein include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
		We divested the piped-medical gas and infant care businesses of Hill-Rom and Forethought in the first, third and fourth quarters, respectively, of fiscal 2004 as further described in Note 4 below. These operations were presented as discontinued operations within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for all periods up to the disposal date. Under this presentation, the revenues and variable costs associated with the businesses have been removed from the individual line items comprising the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and are presented in a separate section entitled, “Discontinued Operations”. In addition, fixed costs related to the businesses eliminated with the divestitures have also been included as a component of discontinued operations. The results of discontinued operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the businesses if they had been operated on a stand-alone basis. On the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations are also presented separately beginning in the period in which the businesses were discontinued. On the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, proceeds from the sale of discontinued operations are classified as an investing cash inflow and any losses are presented as a reconciling item in the reconciliation of net income to net cash provided from operations. Year-to-date operating, investing and financing activities of the discontinued operations are reflected within the respective captions of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows up to the disposal date, consistent with previous periods. As of and for the three- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2005, the condensed consolidated financial statements included as a discontinued operation the results of Forethought Federal Savings Bank, whose divestiture is expected to close by the end of fiscal 2005.
		Principles of Consolidation
		The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
		Reclassification
		Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation, including the reclassification to discontinued operations of the four real estate partnerships that were sold by Forethought in June 2004. These partnerships were previously consolidated as variable interest entities.

		Revision in the Classification of Certain Securities
		During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we concluded that it was appropriate to classify our auction rate municipal bonds as current investments. Previously, such investments had been classified as cash and cash equivalents. Accordingly, we have revised the classification to report these securities as current investments in a separate line item on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2004. We have also made corresponding adjustments to our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the period ended March 31, 2004, to reflect the gross purchases and sales of these securities as investing activities rather than as a component of cash and cash equivalents. This change in classification does not affect previously reported cash flows from operations or from financing activities in our previously reported Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, or our previously reported Consolidated Statements of Income for any period.
		As of September 30, 2003, $33.4 million of these current investments were classified as cash and cash equivalents on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
		For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and for the ten months ended September 30, 2002, net cash provided by (used in) investing activities related to these current investments of ($19.1) million, $169.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, were included in cash and cash equivalents in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
		Current Investments
		At March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004, we held $111.9 million and $52.5 million, respectively, of current investments, which consist of auction rate municipal bonds classified as available-for-sale securities. Our investments in these securities are recorded at cost, which approximates fair market value due to their variable interest rates, which typically reset every 7 to 35 days, and, despite the long-term nature of their stated contractual maturities, we have the ability to quickly liquidate these securities. As a result, we had no cumulative gross unrealized holding gains (losses) or gross realized gains (losses) from our current investments. All income generated from these current investments was recorded as Investment income.
		Investments
		We use the equity method of accounting for certain private equity limited partnership investments, with earnings or losses reported within Investment income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Other minority investments are accounted for on either a cost or equity basis, dependent upon our level of influence over the investee.
		Stock-Based Compensation
		We apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, in accounting for stock-based compensation. As a result, no compensation expense is recognized for stock options granted with exercise prices equivalent to the fair market value of stock on date of grant. Compensation expense is recognized on other forms of stock-based compensation, including stock and performance-based awards and units.
		The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, to all stock-based employee compensation for the periods covered in this report. The fair values of stock option grants are estimated on the date of grant. Prior to fiscal year 2005 we used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, but all stock options granted in fiscal year 2005 are valued with the Binomial option-pricing model for pro forma expense purposes only. Our Binomial model incorporates the possibility of early exercise of options into the valuation, as well as our

historical exercise and termination experience to determine the option value. For these reasons, we believe the Binomial model provides a fair value that is more representative of actual historical experience than the value calculated under the Black-Scholes model.

The weighted average fair value of options granted in the first six months of fiscal 2005 was $13.19 under the Binomial model using the following assumptions: (i) risk-free interest rates of 2.64-4.09 percent; (ii) expected dividend yields of 1.70-2.08 percent; (iii) expected volatility factors of 0.2023-0.2592; and (iv) expected term of 6.8 years.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” This Statement requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock options and share-based compensation transactions using a fair-value-based method. SFAS No. 123(R) thereby eliminates the use of the intrinsic value method of accounting in APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, which was permitted under SFAS No. 123, as long as the footnotes to the financial statements disclosed pro forma net income as if the fair-value-based method had been used. In April 2005, the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) was delayed to the annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005, and thus will become effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. We are currently evaluating the adoption methods available and the impact of this pronouncement to our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs”, to amend Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing”. SFAS No. 151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material by requiring these items to be recognized as current-period charges. Additionally, the Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on normal capacity of the production facilities. The adoption of SFAS No. 151 is required for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We adopted SFAS No. 151 in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 without an impact on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Assets”. SFAS No. 153 requires that exchanges of nonmonetary assets be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, it expands the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets to nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. The provisions of the Statement are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143” (FIN 47). FIN 47 provides guidance relating to the identification of and financial reporting for legal obligations to perform an asset retirement activity. FIN 47 clarifies a conditional asset retirement obligation, as used in SFAS 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional asset retirement obligation should be recognized when incurred, generally upon acquisition, construction or development and/or through the normal operation of the asset. Uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of the conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. The provisions of FIN 47 are required to be applied no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. As such, we are required to adopt FIN 47 by September 30, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of FIN 47 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

At the November 2004 meeting, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) regarding Issue No. 03-13, “Applying the Conditions in Paragraph 42 of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, in Determining Whether to Report Discontinued Operations.” The Issue provides a model to assist in evaluating (a) which cash flows should be considered in the determination of whether cash of the discontinued operation have been, or will be, eliminated from ongoing operations and (b) the types of continuing involvement that constitute significant continuing involvement. The Issue should be applied to a component of an enterprise that is either disposed of or classified as held for sale in fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2004. In analyzing the model included in this Issue, we determined that, although we receive continuing cash flows from a transition agreement with the previously disposed Forethought business, these cash flows are not significant, they are indirect cash flows and we do not have significant continuing involvement in the operations of their business. Therefore, the classification of Forethought as a discontinued operation under SFAS No. 144 is appropriate.

On October 22, 2004, the President signed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “Act”). The Act provides a deduction for income from qualified domestic production activities, which will be phased in from 2005 — 2010. In return, the Act also provides for a two-year phase-out of the existing extra-territorial income exclusion (ETI) for foreign sales that was viewed to be inconsistent with international trade protocols by the European Union. We expect the net effect of the phase out of the ETI and the phase in of this new deduction to result in a minimal impact in the effective tax rate for 2005 based on current earnings levels. In the long-term, we expect the new deduction will result in a decrease in the annual effective tax rate by at least one percent based on current earnings levels.

Under the guidance in FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 109-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, the deduction will be treated as a “special deduction” as described in FASB Statement 109. As such, the special deduction has no effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities existing at the

enactment date. Rather, the impact of this deduction will be reported in the period in which the deduction is claimed on our tax return.

In December 2004, the FASB also issued FSP No. FAS 109-2, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. The Act created a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85 percent dividends received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. It is not anticipated that we will benefit from this provision of the Act.

3.		Acquisitions
		During fiscal 2004, Hill-Rom completed the acquisitions of Advanced Respiratory, Inc. (“ARI”), Mediq, Incorporated (“Mediq”) and NaviCare Systems, Inc. (“NaviCare”). The results of these businesses have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since each acquisition’s date of close.
		On October 17, 2003, Hill-Rom acquired ARI, a manufacturer and distributor of non-invasive airway clearance products and systems, for approximately $103.0 million, plus an additional $2.2 million of acquisition costs incurred in relation to the transaction. This purchase price included a first quarter 2005 payment of $8.2 million resulting from net revenues achieved in fiscal 2004. An additional deferred payment of $5.7 million is outstanding and payable no later than the end of calendar 2005 and is accrued in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004. An additional contingent payment, which could also be payable by the end of calendar 2005, is dependent upon ARI achieving certain net revenue targets over the next year. Any such contingent payment will increase goodwill associated with the acquisition.
		On January 30, 2004, Hill-Rom acquired Mediq, a company in the medical equipment outsourcing and asset management business, for approximately $328.9 million, plus an additional $5.9 million of acquisition costs incurred in relation to the transaction. This purchase price included $23 million deposited in an escrow account, of which $20 million remained at March 31, 2005 related to potential adjustments resulting primarily from the funded status of Mediq’s defined benefit pension plan as of the end of the first quarter of

		2006, along with the occurrence of any issues associated with seller representations, warranties and other matters. The escrow amount has been included in the allocation of purchase price outlined below. Final resolution of the remaining amount in escrow is expected in fiscal 2006. If any adjustment differs in amount from the current escrow balance, the reported purchase price would be decreased by the amount of any valid claims against the escrow amounts, and the reported amount of goodwill associated with the Mediq acquisition would be adjusted accordingly.
		On January 30, 2004, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 84 percent of the equity of NaviCare that we did not already own for approximately $14.1 million.
		The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their dates of acquisition. During the first six months of fiscal 2005, we reduced goodwill by approximately $3.3 million to reflect the true-up of deferred taxes for opening balance sheet adjustments on ARI and NaviCare and a reduction to the previously accrued contingent payment made to ARI in the first quarter of 2005. The purchase prices remain subject to adjustment for the contingent payments outlined above; thus, the allocation of the purchase prices is subject to refinement.

4.		Discontinued Operations
		On July 1, 2004, we closed the sale of Forethought Financial Services, Inc. to FFS Holdings, Inc., an acquisition vehicle formed by the Devlin Group, LLC, which acquired all the common stock of Forethought and its subsidiaries for a combination of cash, seller financing, certain retained assets of Forethought and stock warrants. Total nominal consideration for the transaction was approximately $295.1 million, which included the value of the partnership assets transferred to us. This consideration excluded a dividend received by us in December 2003 from Forethought in the amount of approximately $28.6 million made in anticipation of the transaction. Hillenbrand received cash proceeds in the transaction of approximately $104.9 million. An additional cash payment of approximately $6.4 million is due upon the regulatory approval of the sale of Forethought Federal Savings Bank, which is expected to occur by the end of fiscal 2005.
		In October 2003, Hill-Rom sold its piped-medical gas business to Beacon Medical Products LLC, for $13 million, after final purchase price adjustments.
		In August 2004, Hill-Rom completed the sale of its Air-Shields infant care business to a subsidiary of Dräger Medical AG & Co. KGaA for approximately $31 million.
		These businesses have been treated as discontinued operations for all periods presented within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”.

Operating results for the discontinued operations were as follows for the quarterly and six-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004:

5.		Earnings per Common Share
		Basic earnings per share were calculated based upon the weighted average number of outstanding common shares for the period, plus the effect of deferred vested shares. Diluted earnings per share were calculated consistent with the basic earnings per share calculation including the effect of dilutive unissued common shares related to stock-based employee compensation programs. For all periods presented, anti-dilutive stock options were excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Excluded shares were 1,312,257 and 1,100,481 for the three- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and zero and 200,666 for the comparable periods of 2004. Cumulative treasury stock acquired, less cumulative shares reissued, have been excluded in determining the average number of shares outstanding.

Earnings per share is calculated as follows:

		Quarterly								Year-to-Date

6.		Comprehensive Income
		SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, requires unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities, foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability adjustments to be included in accumulated other comprehensive income.
		The components of comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

		Quarterly								Year-to-Date
		Period Ended								Period Ended
		3/31/05				3/31/04				3/31/05				3/31/04
		(As Restated,								(As Restated,
		See Note 13)								See Note 13)
Net income (loss)		$	54.0			$	(34.7	)		$	97.6			$	27.4
Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities, net-of-tax			(1.1	)			(96.5	)			(1.3	)			(114.5	)
Foreign currency translation adjustment			(1.5	)			(0.5	)			3.2				5.2
Minimum pension liability			—				—				(0.8	)			—
Comprehensive income (loss)		$	51.4			$	(131.7	)		$	98.7			$	(81.9	)

The composition of accumulated other comprehensive income at March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004 was the cumulative adjustment for unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities of

		$9.1 million and $10.4 million, respectively, foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.6 million and ($2.6) million, respectively, and a minimum pension liability adjustment of ($2.6) million and ($1.8) million, respectively.
7.		Retirement Plans
		Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries have several defined benefit retirement plans covering the majority of employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. We contribute funds to trusts as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded projected future benefit obligation over a reasonable period. The benefits for these plans are based primarily on years of service and the employee’s level of compensation during specific periods of employment. We also sponsor nonqualified, unfunded defined benefit pension plans for certain members of management.
		The components of net pension expense for defined benefit retirement plans in the United States for the quarterly and six-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

		Quarterly								Year-to-Date
		Period Ended								Period Ended
		3/31/05				3/31/04				3/31/05				3/31/04
Service cost		$	2.6			$	2.6			$	5.2			$	5.1
Interest cost			4.6				3.8				9.2				7.4
Expected return on plan assets			(4.5	)			(3.9	)			(9.0	)			(7.7	)
Amortization of prior service cost, net			0.6				0.3				1.2				0.6
Net periodic benefit cost		$	3.3			$	2.8			$	6.6			$	5.4

		The 2005 periods presented above include the net pension expense associated with our nonqualified supplemental pension plan offered to certain members of management. The comparable 2004 fiscal year presentation does not include these costs, as the amounts were immaterial to the total net periodic pension cost for all defined benefit retirement plans for those periods.
		As of March 31, 2005 we have made contributions of approximately $0.8 million to our defined benefit pension plans during fiscal 2005. We presently anticipate contributing an additional $6.8 million during fiscal year 2005 to fund our pension plans, for a total contribution of $7.6 million.
		We sponsor both qualified and nonqualified defined contribution retirement plans for all eligible employees, as defined in the plan documents. The qualified plans fall under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions to the qualified plans are based on both employee and Company contributions. Our contributions to the plans were $3.6 million and $7.5 million, for the quarterly and six-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and $2.8 million and $5.4 million for the same periods ended March 31, 2004. We expect to contribute an additional $6.2 million to the plans during the remainder of fiscal year 2005 for a total of $13.7 million. The nonqualified plans are unfunded and carried a liability of less than $1 million at March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004.
8.		Guarantees
		Limited warranties are routinely granted on our products with respect to defects in material and workmanship. The terms of these warranties are generally one year, however, certain components and products have substantially longer warranty periods. A reserve is recognized with respect to these obligations at the time of product sale, with subsequent warranty claims recorded directly against the reserve. The amount of the warranty reserve is determined based on historical trend experience for the covered products. For more significant warranty-related matters which might require a broad-based correction, separate reserves are established when such events are identified and

the cost of correction can be reasonably estimated. A reconciliation of changes in the warranty reserve for the periods covered in this report is as follows:

		Quarterly								Year-to-Date
		Period Ended								Period Ended
		3/31/05				3/31/04				3/31/05				3/31/04
Balance at beginning of period		$	18.8			$	20.8			$	18.6			$	20.8
Provision for warranties during the period			2.8				2.9				6.9				6.5
Warranty reserves acquired			—				—				—				1.1
Warranty claims during the period			(4.5	)			(4.0	)			(8.4	)			(8.7	)
Balance at end of period		$	17.1			$	19.7			$	17.1			$	19.7

		In the normal course of business we enter into various other guarantees and indemnities in our relationships with suppliers, service providers, customers, business partners and others. Examples of these arrangements would include guarantees of product performance, indemnifications to service providers and indemnifications of our actions to business partners. These guarantees and indemnifications would not materially impact our financial condition or results of operations, although indemnifications associated with our actions generally have no dollar limitations.
		In conjunction with our acquisition and divestiture activities, we have entered into select guarantees and indemnifications of performance with respect to the fulfillment of commitments under applicable purchase and sale agreements. The arrangements generally indemnify the buyer or seller for damages associated with breach of contract, inaccuracies in representations and warranties surviving the closing date and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments retained under the applicable agreement. For those representations and warranties that survive closing, they generally survive for periods up to five years or the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Potential losses under the indemnifications are generally limited to a portion of the original transaction price, or to other lesser specific dollar amounts for select provisions. With respect to sale transactions, we also routinely enter into non-competition agreements for varying periods of time. Guarantees and indemnifications with respect to acquisitions and divestiture activities would not materially impact our financial condition or results of operations.
9.		Commitments and Contingencies
		On June 30, 2003, Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System (the “Plaintiff”) filed an antitrust suit against Hillenbrand and its Hill-Rom subsidiary, in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, as described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2004. Plaintiff alleges violations of the federal antitrust laws, including attempted monopolization and tying claims. Discovery is underway. The trial is currently scheduled to occur on or after April 28, 2006. The hearing on class certification may occur in June, 2005.
		On May 6, 2005, the Court granted Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to File a Second Amended Complaint with the effects of adding new theories of recovery, significantly enlarging the potential class and significantly extending the class period. Specifically, among other things, the period for which Plaintiff seeks damages has been extended from 1990 through the present, and a new allegation of monopoly maintenance of an alleged standard hospital bed market has been added. The proposed class definition has also been broadened so that Plaintiff is seeking certification of a class of all purchasers of Hill-RomÒ standard and/or specialty hospital beds and/or architectural and in-room products from 1990 to the present where there have been contracts between Hill-Rom and such purchasers, either on behalf of

		themselves or through purchasing organizations, where those contracts conditioned discounts on Hill-RomÒ hospital beds and other architectural and in-room products on commitments to rent or purchase a very high percentage (e.g. ninety percent) of specialty beds from Hill-Rom. Plaintiff claims that it and the alleged class sustained injury caused by the Hill-Rom package discount, because, even with the discount, the alleged lack of competition resulted in higher prices for standard and/or specialty hospital beds and/or architectural and in-room products.
		Plaintiff seeks actual monetary damages on behalf of the purported class in excess of $100 million, trebling of any such damages that may be awarded, recovery of attorney’s fees and injunctive relief. If a class is certified and if Plaintiffs prevail at trial, potential trebled damages awarded the Plaintiffs could be substantially in excess of $100 million and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. Therefore, we are aggressively defending against Plaintiff’s allegations and will assert what we believe to be meritorious defenses to class certification and Plaintiff’s allegations and damage theories.
		On May 2, 2005, Funeral Consumers Alliance, Inc. and other individuals (the “Plaintiffs”) filed an antitrust suit against several national owners and operators of funeral homes, including Service Corporation International, Alderwoods Group, Inc., and Stewart Enterprises, Inc., together with Hillenbrand and its Batesville Casket Company subsidiary, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs allege violations of the federal antitrust laws and California unfair competition laws, including price-fixing, group boycott, and conspiracy to monopolize claims. The court has scheduled a case management conference for August 31, 2005.
		Plaintiffs are seeking certification of two classes, the first consisting of all consumers located in the United States who purchased Batesville caskets at allegedly supracompetitive prices from co-defendant owners and operators of funeral homes and the second consisting of those same consumers, the Funeral Consumers Alliance, Inc. and all other consumers allegedly threatened with injury by the alleged conspiracies. Plaintiffs allege these supracompetitive prices resulted, in part, from Batesville Casket’s policy of selling its caskets only to licensed funeral homes.
		Plaintiffs seek actual monetary damages on behalf of the purported class, trebling of any such damages that may be awarded, recovery of attorneys’ fees, and injunctive relief. If a class is certified and if Plaintiffs prevail at trial, potential trebled damages awarded to the Plaintiffs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity. Accordingly, we intend to aggressively defend against Plaintiffs’ allegations and intend to assert what we believe to be meritorious defenses to class certification and Plaintiffs’ allegations and damage theories.
		We are subject to various other claims and contingencies arising out of the normal course of business, including those relating to commercial transactions, product liability, employee related matters, antitrust, safety, health, taxes, environmental and other matters. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. It is possible that some litigation matters for which reserves have not been established could be decided unfavorably to us, and that any such unfavorable decisions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
10.		Special Charges
		2004 Actions
		During the fourth fiscal quarter of 2004, we announced a restructuring intended to better align Hill-Rom’s financial and personnel resources to fully support its growth initiatives, decrease overall costs, and improve performance in Europe. The plan included the expected elimination of approximately 130 salaried positions in the U.S. and approximately 100 positions in Europe and resulted in a fourth quarter charge of approximately $7.3

		million, associated with severance and benefit-related costs. As of March 31, 2005, approximately 160 positions have been eliminated with 35 of the original list of terminees being transferred to other positions or retained. As of this same date, there was approximately $3.7 million remaining in the reserve, after cash payments of $1.7 million and a reversal of excess reserves of $0.1 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. All obligations associated with this action, which is expected to be completed in fiscal 2005, will be settled in cash.
		2003 Actions
		During the third fiscal quarter of 2003, we announced a new business structure at Hill-Rom to accelerate the execution of its strategy and strengthen its businesses. As a result of this action, Hill-Rom announced it expected to eliminate approximately 300 salaried positions globally. Hill-Rom also announced it expected to hire approximately 100 new personnel with the skills and experience necessary to execute its business strategy. A fiscal 2003 third quarter charge of $9.3 million was recognized with respect to this action, essentially all related to severance and benefit-related costs. During fiscal 2004, approximately $1.4 million of the originally recorded reserve was reversed. This action was completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2005. We eliminated 288 salaried positions under this action, with 65 of the original list of terminees being transferred to other positions in line with Hill-Rom’s strategy. In addition, approximately 90 new positions were hired under the new business structure.
11.		Income Taxes
		The effective income tax rate for the second quarter and the year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2005 was 37.0 percent. The effective tax rates for the same periods ending March 31, 2004 were 45.2 percent and 41.2 percent, respectively. The higher effective tax rates for last year reflect the establishment of a valuation allowance of $8 million on foreign net operating losses provided in the second quarter. Excluding the effect of the prior year’s portion of the valuation allowance, the effective tax rate for the first six months of 2004 would have approximated 38 percent compared to 37.0 percent for the first six months of 2005. We continue to provide a full valuation allowance for certain foreign net operating losses in the current year. Although these loss carryforwards have no expiration date, current operating results and economic conditions have made it difficult to predict full recoverability of these tax assets. We will continue to pursue opportunities to reduce our effective tax rate in future periods.
12.		Segment Reporting
		SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, requires reporting of segment information that is consistent with the way in which management operates and views the business.
		With the continued evolution of the prior year realignment of the Hill-Rom business structure, changes were adopted in fiscal 2004 and 2005 in terms of the way in which management views the business, including reporting to our executive management team. With these changes, in fiscal 2004 the prior Hill-Rom reporting segment was split into Americas/Asia Pacific and EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) reporting segments, with performance measured on a divisional income basis before special items. Divisional income under this approach was defined as the division’s gross profit less their direct operating costs. This measure excluded a number of functional costs which were managed on an overall Hill-Rom basis, including finance, information technology, human resources, legal, regulatory and strategy. In fiscal 2005, a change was made to the definition of divisional income. Beginning in the first quarter of 2005, divisional income now includes functional costs previously excluded from the measure. Functional costs directly related to a specific division are now borne directly by such division based on the Hill-Rom annual plan. For functional costs not directly tied to a specific division, the costs have been allocated to the respective divisions on the basis of various allocation methodologies, also based on the Hill-Rom annual plan. Management now evaluates divisional performance on

		this new basis. Segment data for 2004 has been restated to conform with this new presentation.
		Intersegment sales between the Americas/Asia Pacific and EMEA are generally accounted for at current market value or cost plus markup. Eliminations, net of allocations, while not considered a segment, will be presented separately to aid in the reconciliation of segment information to consolidated Hill-Rom financial information.
		The reporting segment of Batesville Casket is measured on the basis of income from continuing operations before income taxes. Intersegment sales do not occur between Hill-Rom and Batesville Casket. Forethought results, which were previously considered a reporting segment, are now being presented in the results from discontinued operations as further discussed in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Corporate, while not a segment, is presented separately to aid in the reconciliation of segment information to that reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
		Financial information regarding our reportable segments is presented below:

13.		Restatement and Revised Classification of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
		Restatement
		During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, we entered into definitive agreements to sell Hill-Rom’s piped-medical gas and infant care businesses and in the second quarter of fiscal 2004, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell Forethought Financial Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Forethought”). The divestitures of these businesses were all finalized in fiscal 2004 and all were accounted for as discontinued operations in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for all periods presented herein. While finalizing the fiscal 2004 U.S. federal and state income tax returns, and during preparation of the subsequent tax provision to income tax return reconciliations, management identified errors which understated the income tax benefits associated with these discontinued operations. Further, while assessing the implications of these errors, management determined that it had also made errors with respect to the allocation of goodwill to Hill-Rom’s piped-medical gas and infant care businesses for purposes of determining both the impairment loss recognized in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003 and the effect of the dispositions recognized upon the closure of the transactions in fiscal 2004. As a result of the identification of these errors, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors concluded, after consultation with management and a review of the pertinent facts, that it was necessary to restate (the “Restatement”) the previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2003 and 2004 and for all interim periods in 2004 and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the interim periods of 2005.
		As part of this Restatement, income from discontinued operations and net income in fiscal 2003 increased $51.0 million, or $0.82 per fully diluted share, and income from discontinued operations and net income in fiscal 2004 increased $33.6 million, or $0.53 per fully diluted share. The effects of this Restatement on the income statement impacted only discontinued operations and had no impact on income from continuing operations or

		cash flows. Hillenbrand’s balance sheets as of September 30, 2003 and all succeeding periods were also adjusted to reflect $69.4 million of additional goodwill as a result of the Restatement.
		Specifics related to the errors identified for fiscal 2003 and 2004 are further outlined below:
		Impairment Loss and Gain Recognition on Disposal of Piped-Medical Gas and Infant Care Businesses
		Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (“SFAS 142”), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, requires that all goodwill acquired in a business combination be assigned to one or more reporting units. Upon adopting SFAS 142 in fiscal 2002, the net assets of Hill-Rom’s piped-medical gas and infant care businesses were included in the Hill-Rom reporting unit. When a portion of a reporting unit that constitutes a business is sold, SFAS 142 requires that the amount of goodwill associated with that business be determined based on the relative fair values of the business to be sold versus the portion of the reporting unit to be retained. SFAS 142 further provides, however, that if a business to be disposed of was never integrated into the reporting unit after its acquisition, the current carrying amount of acquired goodwill should be included in the carrying amount of the business to be disposed of.
		When we reached definitive agreements in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 to sell Hill-Rom’s piped-medical gas and infant care businesses, we incorrectly conducted a SFAS 142 impairment assessment for these businesses as if they were non-integrated, separate, stand-alone entities for which it was concluded that the benefits of the acquired goodwill associated with these businesses had not been realized, and would not be realized in the future. This impairment assessment included all the original non-amortized goodwill associated with the acquisition of the businesses, other than a portion pertaining to a retained business, which led to the recognition of an impairment loss of $50.0 million ($51.0 million, net-of-tax) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. No impairment loss should have been recorded based on the fair value of the entire reporting unit that included the disposed businesses.
		Had we appropriately applied the provisions of SFAS 142 and allocated goodwill to the disposed businesses based on their relative fair values compared to the fair value of the reporting unit, the carrying amounts of the disposed businesses would have been lower and no impairment loss would have been recorded. Further, we would have recognized a gain on the divestiture of the piped-medical gas business in the first quarter of fiscal 2004 of $5.3 million, net-of-tax.
		Accounting for Income Taxes
		With respect to the accounting for income taxes related to discontinued operations, including the dispositions of Hill-Rom’s piped-medical gas and infant care businesses and the pre-need insurance business of Forethought, we made certain errors with respect to the recognition of income tax benefits associated with these discontinued operations. These errors related to the following:
