### 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 enters operating cash directly in the reconciliation. The adjustment junction contributes the remaining $161.00M after reconciling the other positive and negative adjustments. These connections depict an accounting reconciliation, not traced 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.
- Operating cash flow minus cash purchases of property, plant and equipment equals free cash flow: 197,000,000 US dollars minus 12,000,000 US dollars equals 185,000,000 US dollars.
