REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Administrative Committee of

The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership

Plan of CVS Caremark Corporation and Affiliated Companies

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Caremark Corporation and Affiliated Companies (the “Plan”) (formerly the 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Corporation and Affiliated Companies) as of December 31, 2007, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. 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 audit. The financial statements of The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Caremark Corporation and Affiliated Companies for the year ended December 31, 2006, were audited by other auditors whose report dated June 21, 2007, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conducted our audit 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the 2007 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2007, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2007, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the 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 audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE 401(k) PLAN AND THE EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP

PLAN OF CVS CAREMARK CORPORATION AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

 

(1) Plan Description

The following description of The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Caremark Corporation and Affiliated Companies (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan documents for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

 

  (a) Background

The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended. The general administration of the Plan and the responsibility for carrying out the provisions of the Plan are maintained by a committee (the “Plan Committee”) of not less than three persons appointed by the Board of Directors of CVS Caremark Corporation (“CVS Caremark” or the “Company”), the sponsor of the Plan. In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the Plan Committee has appointed an administrator (the “Administrator”) and a trustee (the “Trustee”). The Administrator maintains participant account records and instructs the Trustee to execute transactions such as benefit payments to participants. The Trustee holds the assets of the Plan and executes transactions at the direction of the Plan Committee and the Administrator.

Effective April 9, 2002, the 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan of CVS Corporation (the “401(k) Plan”) was merged into this Plan, and the name of this plan was changed from CVS Corporation and Subsidiaries Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”) to The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Corporation and Affiliated Companies. All assets and liabilities under the 401(k) Plan as of April 9, 2002 were transferred to the Plan and, as of that date, benefits for the participants and beneficiaries of the 401(k) Plan have been paid from the Plan. See note 2(a) for further breakdown between ESOP and 401(k) assets.

The ESOP and the 401(k) Plan were established as of January 1, 1989.

Effective March 22, 2007, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of November 1, 2006, as amended, Caremark Rx, Inc. (“Caremark”) was merged into a newly formed subsidiary of CVS Caremark Corporation (“CVS”) with the CVS subsidiary continuing as the surviving entity (the “Caremark Merger”). Subsequently, the name of this plan was changed from The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Corporation and Affiliated Companies to The 401(k) Plan and the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of CVS Caremark Corporation and Affiliated Companies. The Plan has not been amended to allow for participation by Caremark employees and as such, the financial statements herein do not reflect any consolidation of benefits as provided to employees by Caremark at the time of the Caremark Merger.

 

  (b) Eligibility

Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan upon attainment of age 21 and on the earliest of:

 

   

The first payroll period of the first month after completion of 90 continuous days of service as a full-time employee; or

 

   

Completion of 12 months of service beginning on the employee’s enrollment date with at least 1,000 hours worked; or

 

   

Completion of at least 1,000 hours of service in the course of one calendar year.

Table of Contents

THE 401(k) PLAN AND THE EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP

PLAN OF CVS CAREMARK CORPORATION AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

“Employees” referred to above are defined as regular employees of the Company other than:

 

   

A nonresident alien receiving no United States (“U.S.”) earned income from the Company;

 

   

An individual covered under a collective bargaining agreement (unless the agreement provides for membership);

 

   

A leased employee (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code);

 

   

A temporary employee (as determined by the Company); or

 

   

An independent contractor or consultant (as defined by the Company).

 

  (c) Leveraged ESOP Transaction

On June 23, 1989, the ESOP borrowed $357,500,000 from qualified lenders at an interest rate of 8.60% for a 20-year term. The loan to the ESOP is guaranteed by CVS Caremark. The ESOP used the proceeds of the loan to purchase 6,688,494 shares of CVS Caremark Corporation Series One ESOP Convertible Preference Stock (“ESOP Preference Stock”). Each share of ESOP Preference Stock is convertible into shares of CVS Caremark Common Stock at the election of the Plan’s Trustee. The conversion rate is 4.628 shares of CVS Caremark Common Stock for each share of ESOP Preference Stock. Shares of ESOP Preference Stock converted into common stock and retired amounted to 192,396 and 174,706 shares in 2007 and 2006, respectively. The annual dividend on the ESOP Preference Stock is $3.90 per share. Cash dividend payments on ESOP Preference Stock are used to make debt service payments and are not allocated to participants’ accounts.

In accordance with the terms of the loan agreement, the interest rate on the loan was adjusted as of January 1, 1995 in connection with the increase in the Federal income tax rate to 35%. The adjusted interest rate is 8.52%.

As of December 31, 2007, annual maturities of notes payable are $44,500,000 for the year ending December 31, 2008.

Table of Contents

THE 401(k) PLAN AND THE EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP

PLAN OF CVS CAREMARK CORPORATION AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

As the Plan makes principal payments, a specified percentage of ESOP Preference Stock becomes available to be allocated to participants’ accounts. If the amount of a scheduled debt payment due by the Plan on its notes payable outstanding is in excess of the cash available to the Plan from dividends, CVS Caremark contributes to the Plan the amount of the difference. The borrowing is collateralized by the unallocated shares of ESOP Preference Stock. The lenders have no rights against the shares once they are allocated to participants’ accounts.

 

  (d) Contributions

Participants may elect to have the Company contribute to their accounts from 1% to 85% of the compensation that would otherwise be due them, in multiples of 1%, pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. Each participant’s total elective deferrals for any calendar year may not exceed 85% of annual compensation or the maximum allowed by the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), whichever is less, as specified in the Plan document. The maximum elective deferrals allowed by the Code were $15,500 for 2007 and $15,000 for 2006.

The Company matches 100% up to 5% of pre-tax compensation contributed, 50% to the employees’ 401(k) Plan account quarterly and 50% to the employees’ ESOP Diversification Account at year-end if the employee is actively employed at that time. Shares of ESOP Preference Stock allocated to a participant account are calculated by dividing the greater of $53.45 (the cash liquidation value as specified in the Plan document) or the market price of CVS Caremark Common Stock at the time of allocation. Shortfalls in the number of shares allocated to participants and new shares to be allocated based on debt retirements are alleviated by the use of forfeited shares as described in 1(i) below. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s account (see 1(g) below). The ESOP portion of the match may be diversified into other 401(k) investment elections any time after it has been made. Upon the merger of the two plans, this matching contribution agreement was not changed.

All employees at least age 50 that contribute the maximum amount to the Plan are permitted to make additional pre-tax catch-up contributions. The Company does not make a matching contribution. Catch-up contributions may be made up to an additional $5,000 for 2007 and 2006.

 

  (e) Participant’s Account

Each participant’s account is credited with an allocable share of their selected Plan’s investments, ESOP Preference Stock, and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation of those investments. The total amount of new shares to be allocated each year is calculated by multiplying the ratio of each year’s debt service payments to total current and future debt service payments by the total number of unallocated shares of ESOP Preference Stock in the Plan. Allocations to individual participant’s accounts are based on the number of shares due to each participant as described in 1(d) above.

 

  (f) Vesting

Participants become fully vested in Company contributions made to their accounts prior to January 1, 2002, upon the completion of five years of credited service. For Company contributions made after January 1, 2002, participants will vest after three years of credited service.

Participants whose account balances have been transferred into the Plan from other defined contribution plans maintain at least the degree of vesting in the account they had at the time of the transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, participants are fully vested in, and have a nonforfeitable right to (1) their accounts upon death or disability, and (2) any elective deferrals described in note 1(d).

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

 

  (g) Payment of Benefits

Upon termination of service by the participant, the Administrator will direct the Trustee to pay to the participant their benefit under one or more options, such as a single lump-sum, or in equal annual installments over a period not exceeding fifteen years, with interest payable at a reasonable rate as determined by the Plan Committee. The beneficiary may elect to receive their ESOP payment in shares of CVS Caremark Common Stock or in cash at $53.45 per ESOP Preference Stock or the fair market value of a share of CVS Caremark Common Stock at the time of the distribution times a factor of 4.628, whichever is greater.

 

  (h) Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses specifically attributable to the Plan and not covered by forfeitures were funded by the Plan for 2007 and 2006. Trustee’s fees were paid by the Plan for 2007 and 2006.

 

  (i) Forfeitures

On a participant’s termination date, any unvested portion of their account is forfeited. If a former participant resumes employment and eligibility in the Plan within five years of termination, any amounts previously forfeited are restored to the participant’s account, but remain subject to the vesting provisions of the Plan. Forfeitures during any plan year are applied as follows: (i) to restore amounts previously forfeited by participants but required to be reinstated upon resumption of employment; (ii) to pay administrative expenses of the Plan; or (iii) to reduce future CVS Caremark contributions. If forfeitures for any plan year are insufficient to restore the required forfeitures, CVS Caremark shall contribute the balance required for that purpose.

Approximately 15,321 and 12,717 shares of ESOP Preference Stock previously allocated to participant accounts were forfeited during 2007 and 2006, respectively, and have been applied as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. Forfeitures restored to participants in ESOP Preference Stock upon resumption of employment for 2007 and 2006 were approximately 1,447 and 1,811 shares of ESOP Preference Stock, respectively.

Cash forfeitures for 2007 and 2006 were $818,907 and $791,067, respectively. Cash forfeitures restored to participants upon resumption of employment for 2007 and 2006 were approximately $77,334 and $89,421, respectively. The remainder of the forfeitures for each year was applied to the administrative expenses of the Plan and to reduce the CVS Caremark contribution.

 

  (j) Investment Options

Upon enrollment in the Plan or at select intervals thereafter, a participant may elect to direct contributions or investment balances within the investments which are comprised of guaranteed insurance contracts, securities of CVS Caremark and securities of unaffiliated issuers. The securities in unaffiliated issuers include marketable mutual funds and self managed funds, comprised of marketable securities. The following is a brief explanation of each fund’s investment objectives:

Core Equity Fund (Vanguard Index Trust 500 Portfolio Fund)

This fund’s objective is to replicate the total return of the Standard and Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index by investing in the stocks that make up the Index. The S&P 500 Index consists mainly of large companies and represents about 75% of the U.S. stock market value.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

Diversified Bond Fund (PIMCO Total Return Admin Fund)

This fund is a core bond fund that seeks to outperform the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index on a consistent basis while maintaining an overall risk similar to the Index. Investments may include government and corporate debt securities, mortgage and other asset backed securities, money market instruments and derivatives.

International Equity Fund (Templeton Institutional Foreign Equity Fund)

This fund’s investment objective is long-term capital growth through participation in stock markets outside the U.S. The fund invests primarily in the common stock of companies based in more developed countries, but may also include investments in developing countries.

Small Cap Growth Fund (Vanguard Explorer Fund)

This fund seeks long-term growth of capital and dividend income. This fund invests primarily in the stocks of relatively small companies, making it a high-risk investment with potential for large rewards.

Global Equity Fund (American Funds New Perspective)

This fund seeks long-term growth of capital. The fund invests primarily in stocks of U.S. companies, as well as developed European and Asian companies.

Small Cap Value Fund (Columbia Small Cap Value Fund)

This fund’s investment objective is long-term capital appreciation. This fund invests primarily in the stocks of companies that have market capitalization similar in size to those companies in the Russell 2000 Index.

Lifestyle Conservative Fund (various managers)

This fund is for people who will need access to their money in less than five years. Approximately 70% of the fund is invested in fixed-income or low-risk investments. The remaining 30% is invested in stock-oriented mutual funds or moderate-risk investments.

PLAN OF CVS CAREMARK CORPORATION AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

Lifestyle Moderate Fund (various managers)

This fund is for less conservative investors who can keep their money invested for at least five years. Because stocks make up approximately 60% of the fund’s mix, the fund has more exposure to the fluctuations in the stock market than the Lifestyle Conservative Fund. The remaining 40% is invested in bonds.

Lifestyle Aggressive Fund (various managers)

This fund is for those individuals who can keep their money invested for at least ten years or those who are willing to accept a greater level of risk in return for greater possible reward. Therefore, 80% of the fund is invested in stocks and the remaining 20% is invested in fixed-income securities.

CVS Caremark Corporation Common Stock Fund

This fund was established as a result of the transfer of assets from the Revco D.S., Inc. 401(k) Plan during 1997. The Plan may, at the discretion of the Plan Committee, offer a company stock fund as one of the available investment funds for employee and employer contributions. The fund holds CVS Caremark Common Stock. This fund seeks long-term growth and dividend income by purchasing shares of CVS Caremark Common Stock. Because the fund invests in only one company, it is considered a high-risk investment with potential for large rewards.

Investment Contract Fund (managed by State Street Bank & Trust Co.)

This fund seeks to preserve capital, while generating a steady rate of return higher than money market funds. The fund’s investments consist of highly-rated (AA or higher) insurance company and bank investment contracts.

Growth and Income Fund (J&W Seligman Large Cap Value Fund)

This self managed fund seeks long-term capital growth and dividend income through participation in the stock market. Investment advisory services are provided by J&W Seligman. The fund invests primarily in the common stock of U.S. based, well established medium to large size companies.

Large Cap Growth Fund (Columbus Circle Core Equity Fund)

This self managed fund’s investment objective is long-term capital growth, through participation in the stock market. Investment advisory services are provided by Columbus Circle. The fund invests primarily in the common stock of established large companies that are based in the U.S. and that represent industries expected to outperform the stock market as a whole.

THE 401(k) PLAN AND THE EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP

PLAN OF CVS CAREMARK CORPORATION AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

 

  (b) Investment Valuation

The value of the investments in the 401(k) portion of the Plan held at December 31, 2007 and 2006 is based on the fair value of the underlying funds. Shares of mutual funds are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net asset values of shares held by the Plan at year end. CVS Caremark common stock and common stock owned directly in the two self managed funds are valued based upon quoted market prices. The participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 157 may have on our Statements of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits, or the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits.

On December 29, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position, FSP 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 Audit Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans (the “FSP”). The FSP provides a definition of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts and guidance on financial statement presentation and disclosure of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts.

The Plan adopted the FSP for the year ended December 31, 2006. One of the investment options offered by the Plan is guaranteed insurance contracts that are common collective trusts that are fully invested in contracts deemed to be fully benefit-responsive within the meaning of the FSP. The FSP requires that this investment be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measure to the Plan because it is the amount that is available for Plan benefits. Accordingly, investments as reflected in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits state the guaranteed insurance contracts at their fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to reflect the investment at contract value. The adoption of the FSP had no impact on total net assets available for plan benefits or changes in net assets available for plan benefits.

The contract value represents contributions made under the contract, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. The value fluctuates in response to various factors including, but not limited to, the price of the shares in the underlying funds, dividends paid, earnings and losses and the mix of assets in the respective fund. The fair value for the guaranteed insurance contracts at December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $399,720,798 and $346,668,369 respectively. The contract value for the guaranteed insurance contracts at December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $390,114,167 and $350,754,935, respectively. The average yield for 2007 and 2006 was 4.43% and 4.41%, respectively.

Short-term investments, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, are at fair value.

The ESOP portion of the Plan invests its funds primarily in ESOP Preference Stock. The investment in ESOP Preference Stock is carried at the higher of the cash liquidation value of $53.45 or 4.628 times the market value of an equivalent share of CVS Caremark Common Stock. The market value of CVS Caremark Common Stock was $39.75 and $30.91 per share at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Table of Contents

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

 

  (c) Benefits Paid

Benefits are recorded when paid.

 

  (d) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial

statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets available for plan benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

  (e) Accrual Basis of Accounting

The Plan utilizes the accrual basis of accounting, except for benefit payments.

 

  (f) Purchase and Sale of Securities

Purchase and sales of securities are made on a trade-date basis.

 

  (g) Investment Income

Dividend and interest income is recorded when earned.

 

  (h) Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements of prior years to conform to the current year presentation.

 

(3) Loans to Participants

Participants may obtain bona fide loans from the Plan, utilizing funds accumulated in their accounts. The minimum amount, which may be borrowed is $1,000. Participants can borrow up to 50% of their vested account balance but not more than $50,000 less their highest outstanding loan balance during the previous twelve months. The loans are repaid to the Plan through after-tax payroll deductions. The term of the loan is selected at the discretion of the participant, but may not exceed five years for a general loan and twenty-five years for a home purchase loan. Interest on loans is equal to the Prime rate as of the prior month end plus 1%.

 

(4) Investment Policy

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, most of the Plan’s 401(k) related assets were allocated among the investment options discussed in note 1(j) based on Employees’ elections. The investment options are administered by independent investment managers. Employee asset allocations that are awaiting processing are temporarily invested in commingled funds held by a bank-administered trust fund. These commingled funds are also used to account for and administer participants’ loans. The loan repayments and interest earned are allocated to each of the investment funds based upon the participants’ contribution election percentages.

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) represents the net difference between the fair value of the investment and its historical cost basis if purchased during the Plan year or the change in its fair value during the Plan year. During 2007 and 2006, the Plan’s investments (including investments bought, sold and held during the year) experienced net appreciation as follows:

(5) Plan Termination and Related Commitments

Although it has not expressed any intention 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. If the Company terminates the Plan, all participants in the Plan become fully vested.

 

(6) Federal Income Taxes

The Plan is qualified pursuant to Section 401(a) and 4975(e)(7) of the Code and the trust established under the Plan to hold the Plan’s assets is exempt from Federal income taxes pursuant to Section 501(a) of the Code; accordingly, the trust’s net investment income is exempt from income taxes. The Plan has obtained a favorable tax determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service and the Plan’s sponsor believes that the Plan, as amended, continues to qualify and operate as designed.
