Chart connections

  • Beginning cash plus operating, investing and financing cash flows plus the exchange-rate effect equals ending cash. Negative amounts reduce cash.
  • Financing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Investing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Operating reconciliation adjustments are not all independent cash receipts.
  • Net income exceeds operating cash. The diagram allocates $507.00M of net income directly to operating cash and $361.00M to the adjustment junction, where it combines with other additions to reconcile deductions. This is an accounting presentation, not a tracing of cash receipts.
  • Each activity has one net cash bar connected to the shared cash pool. Positive activity totals enter the pool; negative activity totals leave the pool to fund that activity's net payments. The central pool does not assign a particular funding source to a particular payment.
  • The intermediate calculation bars include both sides of the displayed activity breakdowns; they are not additional cash flows.
  • The filer's reported cash figures differ by $1.00 M: its ending cash less its beginning cash does not equal its reported net change in cash. The chart shows the difference as its own calculated flow; no reported amount has been adjusted.
  • Operating cash flow minus cash purchases of property, plant and equipment equals free cash flow: 507,000,000 US dollars minus 193,000,000 US dollars equals 314,000,000 US dollars.
  • The filer's reported cash figures differ by $1.00 M: its ending cash less its beginning cash does not equal its reported net change in cash. The chart shows the difference as its own calculated flow; no reported amount has been adjusted.
