These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's trustees. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits 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, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /S/ DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom _______________________, 2006 PROCTER & GAMBLE IRELAND EMPLOYEES SHARE OWNERSHIP PLAN STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS JUNE 30, 2006 AND 2005 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2006 2005 (Euros) (Euros) ASSETS: Investment in The Procter & Gamble Company common stock, at fair value (56,445 shares at 30 June 2006, 54,418 shares at 30 June 2005) 2,454,228 2,379,628 Investment in J.M.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006, 2005 AND 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. PLAN DESCRIPTION The following brief description of the Procter & Gamble Ireland Employees Share Ownership Plan ("Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information. GENERAL - The Plan is a share purchase plan established by Procter & Gamble (Manufacturing) Ireland Limited and Procter & Gamble Limited ("Companies") to provide a means for eligible Irish employees to tax efficiently purchase shares in The Procter & Gamble Company ("Parent"). The Plan is administered by Mercer Limited who were appointed by the Trustees of the Plan and who hold the Plan assets on behalf of the Trustees of the Plan. CONTRIBUTIONS - Employees can contribute up to 2.5% of their base salary. The participating Procter & Gamble companies (see note 7) match all contributions by employees in full. WITHDRAWALS - Participants may withdraw shares from the Plan at any time subject to the following Plan rules. Participants who withdraw shares from the Plan within 3 years of purchase become liable for income tax. Participants who withdraw shares from the Plan after 3 years can do so without attracting any income tax. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS - Individual accounts are maintained for each plan participant. Each participant's account is credited the participants' contribution, the participating Procter & Gamble companies' (see Note 7) matching contribution and allocations of Plan earnings, and charged with withdrawals and an allocation of Plan losses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is limited to the shares that can be provided from the participant's account. VESTING - Participants are immediately vested in their contributions, the participating companies' (see Note 7) matching contributions and earnings. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. EXPENSES OF THE PLAN - Investment management expenses and all other fees and expenses are paid by the participating Procter & Gamble companies (see note 7). USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The plan invests in The Procter & Gamble Company and J.M. Smucker Company common stock. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION - The Plan's investment in The Procter & Gamble Company common stock and J.M. Smucker Company common stock is stated at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices and is translated into Euros at the rate of exchange at 30 June. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. 3. INVESTMENTS The Plan's investment in The Procter & Gamble Company and J M Sucker Company common stock experienced net (depreciation) appreciation in value as follows for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005, and 2004: 2006 2005 2004 (Euros) (Euros) (Euros) Unrealized (depreciation) appreciation (20,127) (119,699) 147,182 --------- --------- --------- 4.
