EXPLANATORY NOTE
Starbucks Corporation is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (“Form 10-K/A”) to its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2006 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
December 14, 2006 (the “Original Filing”) solely to correct an administrative error in the content of Item 7,
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The error appears in
the first full paragraph on page 25 of the Original Filing. In the third sentence of that paragraph the 7% increase in
comparable store sales growth in fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005 is attributed to a 5% increase in the average value per
transaction and a 2% increase in the number of customer transactions. The correct explanation is as follows: “The
increase in comparable store sales was due to a 5% increase in the number of customer transactions and a 2% increase in
the average value per transaction.”
This Amendment does not update any disclosures to reflect developments since the filing date of the Original Filing.
In accordance with SEC Rule 12b-15, this Form 10-K/A sets forth the complete text of Item 7, “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, as amended. However, in order to reduce
printing and mailing costs, for purposes of providing the disclosure required under SEC rules in the Company’s fiscal
2006 Annual Report to Shareholders (the “Annual Report”), the Company intends to provide shareholders (1) this
Form 10-K/A, with only its explanatory note, signatures and certifications, (but excluding the full Item 7 as amended),
together with (2) the Original Filing filed on December 14, 2006. The complete Form 10-K/A, including the full Item 7
as amended, will be available at the Company’s web site set forth below and on the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, and will
be provided without charge upon written request to the following address:
