Forward-looking statements 2 This slide presentation contains a number of forward-looking statements. The words “deliver,” “accelerating,” “leverage,” “drive,” “expand,” “create,” “expect,” “opportunity,” “achievable,” and “increase” and similar expressions are intended to identify our forward-looking statements. Examples of our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, sustainable profitable growth; H2 2013 growth; long runway for growth; Power Brands; innovation platforms; Hot Zone penetration; Traditional Trade coverage; Next Wave markets; long-term growth target; Free Cash Flow; use of capital; balance sheet; and ROIC. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, increased competition, pricing actions, continued volatility in commodity costs, continued weak economic conditions, risks from operating globally and tax law changes. For additional information on these and other factors that could affect our forward-looking statements, see our risk factors, as they may be amended from time to time, set forth in our filings with the SEC, including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. We disclaim and do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this slide presentation, except as required by applicable law or regulation. |
