Note 1. Organization and Business

Organization and Business Purpose

Hewlett-Packard Erste Vermögensverwaltungs- und Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH ("HP Erste V&B"), a corporation organized under the laws of Germany, was incorporated in September 2001 under the name David Hundertdreiundreissigste Vermögensverwaltungs-GmbH by a third party for the purpose of establishing an inactive shell company. In September 2001, Hewlett-Packard Company, a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware ("HP Parent"), entered into an Offer Agreement (as amended in February 2002) with Indigo N.V., a corporation organized under the laws of The Netherlands ("Indigo"), pursuant to which HP Parent, either directly or through a subsidiary, would commence an exchange offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Indigo (the "Offer"). In December 2001, all of the outstanding stock of HP Erste V&B was purchased by an indirect subsidiary of HP Parent for the purpose of utilizing HP Erste V&B to effect the Offer. In March 2002, the Offer expired and, according to its terms, HP Erste V&B accepted for payment 94,522,517 common shares of Indigo that were tendered pursuant to the Offer (the "Tendered Indigo Shares"). In April 2002, HP Erste V&B delivered the Offer consideration in exchange for the Tendered Indigo Shares, which consisted of 31,578,153 shares of HP Parent common stock, 52,625,240 contingent value rights ("CVRs") and $5,940 cash paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of HP Parent common stock. The shares of HP Parent common stock were purchased by HP Erste V&B from HP Parent in March and April 2002. Prior to the completion of the Offer, HP Erste V&B had not conducted any business.

Intercompany Loan and Stock Purchase

In March and April 2002, HP Erste V&B borrowed $573,155,924 from an indirect subsidiary of HP Parent for the purpose of acquiring newly issued shares of HP Parent common stock to be exchanged for the Tendered Indigo Shares in connection with the Offer. The loan was made pursuant to the terms of a loan agreement between HP Erste V&B and HP Europa Holding GmbH & Co. KG ("HP Europa KG") dated March 26, 2002 (the "Loan"). In March and April 2002, HP Erste V&B purchased 31,578,153 shares of HP Parent common stock for $573,149,984 pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement between HP Erste V&B and HP Parent dated March 22, 2002.

Issuance of CVRs and HP Parent Guaranty

In April 2002 and pursuant to the terms of the Offer, HP Erste V&B entered into an indenture, the Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the "CVR Agreement"), with J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (the "Trustee") and issued 52,625,240 CVRs. Each CVR entitles the holder to a one-time contingent cash payment of up to $4.50, based on the achievement of certain cumulative revenue results of HP Parent and its affiliates relating to Indigo (as described in the CVR Agreement, which is incorporated by reference to this report as exhibit 4(a)) during the three-year period commencing April 1, 2002. In April 2002, and in connection with the issuance of the CVRs, HP Parent executed and delivered to the Trustee a Corporate Guaranty regarding HP Erste V&B's payment obligations pursuant to the CVRs and the CVR Agreement (the "Corporate Guaranty").

Sale of Indigo and Repayment of Intercompany Loan

In June 2002, HP Erste V&B sold the Tendered Indigo Shares to HP Europa KG in satisfaction of all remaining obligations under the Loan.

Corporate Information

The managing directors of HP Erste V&B are Ann O. Baskins, Jürgen Banhardt and Charles N. Charnas. Ms. Baskins also serves as Chief Executive Officer of HP Erste V&B and as Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of HP Parent. Mr. Banhardt also serves as Director of Finance and Administration for Hewlett-Packard Germany GmbH, a German operating subsidiary of HP Parent. Mr. Charnas also serves as Chief Financial Officer of HP Erste V&B, as Vice President, Deputy General Counsel and Assistant Secretary of HP Parent and as Managing Director of Indigo. The fiscal year of HP Erste V&B ends on December 31.

Note 2: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements for HP Erste V&B contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3: Significant Accounting Policies

Cash

Cash is held in an interest bearing account at a third party financial institution. HP Erste V&B holds no cash equivalents or short-term investments.

Foreign Exchange

HP Erste V&B uses the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Foreign currency assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for stockholders' equity, which is remeasured at historical exchange rates. Income and expense amounts are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during each period. Gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurement are included in net earnings.

Dividends

HP Erste V&B has not declared or paid dividends since its purchase by a subsidiary of HP Parent in December 2001.

Note 4: Purchase of HP Erste V&B

On December 20, 2001, an indirect subsidiary of HP Parent purchased HP Erste V&B, which then was organized under the name David Hundertdreiundreissigste Vermögensverwaltungs-GmbH, for approximately $5,700, net of cash acquired. For the period from December 20, 2001 to March 22, 2002, HP Erste V&B's only activity was interest earned on its cash balance.

Note 5: Indigo Purchase and Sale

In March 2002, HP Erste V&B completed the Offer and thereby acquired 94,522,517 common shares of Indigo, which constituted approximately 85% of Indigo's issued and outstanding share capital, excluding shares held by Indigo in treasury. As explained in Note 1, HP Erste V&B sold these shares to HP Europa KG, another HP Parent subsidiary. The common shares of Indigo were acquired and sold for the same amount resulting in no gain or loss to HP Erste V&B.

It was HP Erste V&B's and HP Parent's intent that the Tendered Indigo Shares would be sold to HP Europa KG immediately after the completion of the Offer so that none of Indigo's results of operations would accrue to HP Erste V&B. However, due to administrative reasons, the transfer of the Tendered Indigo Shares to HP Europa KG was delayed until June 24, 2002. Accordingly, HP Erste V&B has accounted for the operations of Indigo during the period March 22, 2002 to June 24, 2002 using the equity method since HP Erste V&B's control of Indigo was considered to be temporary. The losses from the operations of Indigo were then recouped by HP Erste V&B through gains on the related intercompany transactions, resulting in no net earnings to HP Erste V&B attributable to the transactions involving Indigo.

HP Erste V&B's loss on its equity method investment in Indigo was $65.6 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, which loss was offset by gains of the same amount on related intercompany transactions. Included in this equity loss was HP Erste V&B's proportionate share of the pre-tax charge of approximately $58.2 million, which is the portion of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development, and amortization expense related to specifically identified amortizable assets and additional expenses related to fair value adjustments to tangible assets.

Note 6: Indigo Contingent Value Rights

In addition to the 31,578,153 shares of HP Parent common stock exchanged by HP Erste V&B for the Tendered Indigo Shares, HP Erste V&B also issued and exchanged 52,625,240 non-transferable CVRs. Each CVR entitles the holder to a one-time contingent cash payment of up to $4.50 per CVR, based on the achievement of certain cumulative revenue results of HP Parent and its affiliates relating to Indigo (as described in the CVR Agreement, which is incorporated by reference to this report as exhibit 4(a)) over a three-year period commencing on April 1, 2002. Under the terms of the CVR Agreement, no liability accrues unless the total cumulative revenue results during the three-year period reaches $1.0 billion. At September 30, 2002, this minimum threshold had not been met and, accordingly, no amounts have been accrued. The maximum contingent liability related to the CVRs is approximately $240 million if the cumulative revenue results during the three-year period equals or exceeds $1.6 billion.

The future cash payment, if any, of the CVRs will be payable after April 1, 2005. HP Erste V&B's payment obligations pursuant to the CVRs and the CVR Agreement are fully guaranteed by HP Parent under the terms of the Corporate Guaranty.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

HEWLETT-PACKARD ERSTE
VERMÖGENSVERWALTUNGS- und BETEILIGUNGSGESELLSCHAFT mbH

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the related notes that appear in Part I, Item 1 of this document.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 2, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause the results of HP Erste V&B to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including any projections of or statements regarding earnings, revenue, expenses, future access to capital, or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations, including statements regarding the on-going purpose of HP Erste V&B and any statements regarding any potential payment obligations under the CVRs; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions referred to above include the risks that are described under "Factors That Could Affect Future Results" as set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 2 of this report. HP Erste V&B assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

General

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its financial statements.

Contingent Value Rights

HP Erste V&B's liability related to the CVRs will be accrued, and a related intercompany receivable from HP Europa KG recorded, when and if certain cumulative revenue results of HP Parent and its affiliates relating to Indigo (as described in the CVR Agreement, which is incorporated by reference to this report as exhibit 4(a)) are achieved during the three-year period commencing on April 1, 2002. The future cash payment, if any, pursuant to the CVRs will be payable after April 1, 2005. HP Erste V&B's payment obligations pursuant to the CVRs and the CVR Agreement are fully guaranteed by HP Parent. The maximum contingent liability related to the CVRs is approximately $240 million if the cumulative revenue results during the three-year period equals or exceeds $1.6 billion.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a summary of operating results of HP Erste V&B for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002. Prior to March 22, 2002, HP Erste V&B was an inactive shell company.

For a discussion of the intercompany transactions see Note 5 to the accompanying Financial Statements.

For the three months ended September 30, 2002, HP Erste V&B recorded interest income and other, net, of $63, consisting of interest income on its cash balance offset by miscellaneous expenses. In May 2002, HP Erste V&B's cash account was converted from a Euro-denominated account to a U.S. dollar-denominated account and accordingly, no currency exchange gains or losses were incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2002. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, HP Erste V&B recorded interest income and other, net, of $79, consisting of interest income on its cash balance partially offset by miscellaneous expenses and currency exchange losses. HP Erste V&B's future results of operations are expected to be limited to interest income on its existing cash balance and minor miscellaneous expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

HP Erste V&B's primary source of liquidity is its current cash balance of $22,516. This amount is held in an interest-bearing account.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, HP Erste V&B's cash flows from operating activities were $79, consisting of interest income on its cash balance partially offset by miscellaneous expenses and exchange losses.

Cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, consisted of the purchase of 31,578,153 shares of HP Parent common stock for an aggregate price of approximately $573.1 million and the $5,940 payment in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of HP Parent common stock. HP Erste V&B's cash flows from financing activities consisted of a loan from an affiliated entity, HP Europa KG, to fund the purchase of the HP Parent common stock. HP Erste V&B used the HP Parent common stock as part of the offer consideration to complete the purchase of the Tendered Indigo Shares. Ownership of the Tendered Indigo Shares, including the associated cash balance, was subsequently transferred to HP Europa KG in full settlement of the loan from HP Europa KG to HP Erste V&B.

HP Erste V&B's contingent liability for the Indigo CVRs is guaranteed by HP Parent. Management expects that the company will have minimal other cash requirements, and that the current cash balance is sufficient to meet miscellaneous operating expenses, if any, that may be incurred over the next twelve months.

FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Because of the following factors, as well as other variables affecting our operating results, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance.

We have no significant assets.

We have no significant assets. Our operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, reflected, in part, our temporary ownership of the Tendered Indigo Shares. We no longer own the Tendered Indigo Shares. Our current operating plans are limited to performing our obligations and enforcing our rights pursuant to the CVRs and the CVR Agreement and to investing our limited cash assets in interest bearing bank accounts. Pursuant to a Profit Transfer Agreement entered into in May

2002 between HP Erste V&B and HP Europa KG, we are obligated to transfer our future profits to HP Europa KG and may not retain such profits unless otherwise approved by HP Europa KG. As a result, we do not expect to be able to increase our capital base to any significant extent in the future. Pursuant to the Profit Transfer Agreement, HP Europa KG also is obligated to compensate us for any annual deficit if such deficit cannot be satisfied out of our uncommitted reserves. In addition, HP Parent has guaranteed our payment and performance obligations under or pursuant to the CVRs and the CVR Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Corporate Guaranty. However, if HP Europa KG and HP Parent are unable to satisfy their obligations under the Profit Transfer Agreement or the Corporate Guaranty and we incur significant liabilities in the future, it is unlikely that we would have access to sufficient resources to satisfy such liabilities.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

HP Erste V&B has no financial instruments subject to market risk.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of HP Erste V&B's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of HP Erste V&B's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act 13a-14. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that HP Erste V&B's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information related to HP Erste V&B and required to be included in HP Erste V&B's periodic SEC reports.

There were no significant changes in HP Erste V&B's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
