Average WC(2) | $86 | $150 | -$64 | | | |
Average WC % net sales(4) | 1.4% | 2.5% | | | | |
- Receivablesdecreased primarily due to the timing of sales in the quarter and the impact of weaker foreign currencies.
- Inventoriesdecreased primarily as a result of a reduction in inventory values due to lower commodity prices.
- Accounts payabledecreased mainly due to a decline in certain commodity prices.
- Accrued liabilitiesincreased primarily due to an increase in commodity hedging liabilities as a result of the reduction in the market prices of certain commodities.
Supplemental Information – Cash Flow
(Unaudited)
For the quarter and year ended June 30, 2009
Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter were $62 million (full year = $197 million)
Depreciation and amortization for the fourth quarter was $48 million (full year = $190 million)
Cash provided by operations
Net cash provided by operations in the fourth quarter was $315 million, compared with $254 million provided by operations in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher net earnings and lower tax payments, partially offset by a voluntary $30 million pension contribution.
(1) | Days of accounts payable is calculated as follows: average accounts payable / [(cost of products sold + change in inventory) / 90]. |
|
(2) | Working capital (WC) is defined in this context as current assets minus current liabilities excluding cash and short-term debt, based on end of period balances. Average working capital represents a two-point average of working capital. |
|
(3) | Represents working capital at the end of the period divided by annualized net sales(current quarter net sales x 4). |
|
(4) | Represents a two-point average of working capital divided by annualized net sales(current quarter net sales x 4). |
|
(5) | Days calculations based on a two-point average. |

(1) | In accordance with SEC's Regulation G, this schedule provides the definition of a non-GAAP measure and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure.
Management believes the presentation of economic profit (EP) provides additional information to investors about current trends in the business. EP is used by management to evaluate business performance and was taken into account in determining management’s incentive compensation and the Company’s contribution to employee profit sharing plans in fiscal year 2009. EP represents profit generated over and above the cost of paying for assets used by the business to generate that profit. |
|
(2) | Non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs are added back to earnings and adjusted capital employed to more closely reflect cash earnings and the total capital investment used to generate those earnings. |
|
(3) | Interest expense is added back to earnings because it is included as a component of the capital charge. |
|
(4) | Adjusted after tax profit represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs, and interest expense, after tax. The tax rate applied is the effective tax rate on continuing operations which was 33.8%, 33.6%, and 33.2% in fiscal years 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. |

(5) | Total capital employed represents total assets less non-interest bearing liabilities. Adjusted capital employed represents total capital employed adjusted to add back current year non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs. Average capital employed represents a two-point average of adjusted capital employed for the current year and total capital employed for the prior year, based on year-end balances. See below for details of the average capital employed calculation: |
| FY09 | | FY08 | | FY07 | | FY06 |

Average capital employed | $ | 3,045 | | $ | 2,680 | | $ | 2,165 | | | |
(6) | Capital charge represents average capital employed multiplied by the weighted-average cost of capital. Weighted-average cost of capital is the blended average of the cost of the Company’s debt and equity capital. The weighted-average cost of capital used to calculate capital charge was 9% for fiscal years 2009, 2008, and 2007. |
|
(7) | EP represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs, and interest expense, after tax, less a capital charge (as defined above). |

(1) | In accordance with SEC's Regulation G, this schedule provides the definition of a non-GAAP measure and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure. Management believes the presentation of return on invested capital (ROIC) provides additional information to investors about current trends in the business. ROIC is a measure of how effectively the company allocates capital. Beginning with fiscal year 2008, the company adopted a simplified ROIC calculation (see definition below). |
|
(2) | Restructuring and asset impairment costs are added back to earnings and average invested capital to more closely reflect operating results. |
|
(3) | Interest expense is added back to earnings because it is factored in debt, a component of average invested capital (as defined below). |
|
(4) | Adjusted after tax profit represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, restructuring and asset impairment costs, and interest expense; after tax. The tax rate applied is the effective tax rate on continuing operations, which was 33.8%, 33.6%, 33.2%, 32.1%, and 29.4% in fiscal years 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. |
|
(5) | Average invested capital represents a five quarter average of debt and equity. Adjusted average invested capital represents average invested capital adjusted to add back a five quarter average of cumulative, current-year after-tax restructuring and asset impairment costs. See below for details of the adjusted average invested capital calculation: |
(amounts shown below are five quarter averages) | FY09 | | FY08 | | FY07 | | FY06 | | FY05 |
Debt | $ | 3,338 | | | $ | 3,161 | | | $ | 2,181 | | $ | 2,533 | | | $ | 1,820 |
Equity | | (324 | ) | | | (372 | ) | | | 4 | | | (439 | ) | | | 366 |
Average invested capital | | 3,014 | | | | 2,789 | | | | 2,185 | | | 2,094 | | | | 2,186 |
Cumulative after-tax restructuring and asset impairment costs | | 5 | | | | 16 | | | | 4 | | | 1 | | | | 18 |
Adjusted average invested capital | $ | 3,019 | | | $ | 2,805 | | | $ | 2,189 | | $ | 2,095 | | | $ | 2,204 |
(6) | ROIC is calculated as earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, excluding restructuring and asset impairment costs and interest expense, computed on an after-tax basis as a percentage of adjusted average invested capital (as defined above). |
