Supplemental Information – Cash Flow
(Unaudited)
For the quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2012

Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter were $73 million versus $69 million in the year-ago quarter (fiscal year 2012 = $192).

Depreciation and amortization for the fourth quarter was $45 million versus $43 million in the year-ago quarter (fiscal year 2012 = $178)

Net cash provided by continuing operations in the fourth quarter was $287 million, or 19 percent of sales.

(2)      Working capital (WC) is defined in this context as current assets minus current liabilities excluding cash, assets held for sale, 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.

Economic profit (6) (Adjusted after tax profit less capital charge) $ 402 $ 393 $ 392
       % change over prior year +2.3% +0.3%        +12.6%

(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 in fiscal year 2012. EP represents profit generated over and above the cost of paying for assets used by the business to generate that profit.
(2) In the fiscal year 2011 Annual Report to shareholders and in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, EP for all fiscal years presented included the results of the Auto Businesses (but excluded the net gain on sale) because this was the method used by the company to calculate EP to determine the amount of short-term compensation for fiscal year 2011. In the current fiscal year, EP calculations for all fiscal years presented exclude the Auto Businesses.
(3) 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 before the non-cash goodwill impairment charge for fiscal year 2011, which was 31.4%, 33.8% and 34.7% in fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively. The difference between the fiscal year 2011 effective tax rate on continuing operations before the non-cash goodwill impairment charge and the effective tax rate on continuing operations of 49% is (16.0)% related to the non-deductible non-cash goodwill impairment charge and 0.8% for other tax effects related to excluding this charge.
(4) 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 and non-cash goodwill impairment. 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:



      FY12       FY11(2)       FY10(2)
Total assets $ 4,355 $ 4,163 $ 4,548
Adjustments related to the Auto businesses - - (405 )
Total assets adjusted for Auto businesses 4,355 4,163 4,143

       Accounts payable 412 423 409
       Accrued liabilities 494 442 491
       Income taxes payable 5 41 74
       Other liabilities 739 619 677
       Deferred income taxes 119 140 19
              Non-interest bearing liabilities 1,769   1,665 1,670
Total capital employed 2,586 2,498 2,473
Non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs   4 6 4
Non-cash goodwill impairment -   258   -
Adjusted capital employed $      2,590 $      2,762   $      2,477
Average capital employed $ 2,544 $ 2,618 $ 2,525

(5)         Capital charge represents average capital employed multiplied by the weighted-average cost of capital. The weighted-average cost of capital used to calculate capital charge was 9% for all fiscal years presented.
(6)         EP represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, non-cash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs, non-cash goodwill impairment and interest expense, after tax, less a capital charge (as defined above).

Adjusted average invested capital (3) $      2,606 $      2,632   $      2,645
Return on invested capital (4) 24.2% 23.9% 23.4%

(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.
(2) Adjusted after tax profit represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, restructuring and asset impairment costs, non-cash goodwill impairment and interest expense, after tax. The tax rate applied is the effective tax rate on continuing operations, before the non-cash goodwill impairment charge for fiscal year 2011, which was 31.4%, 33.8% and 34.7% in fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively. The difference between the fiscal year 2011 effective tax rate on continuing operations before the non-cash goodwill impairment charge and the effective tax rate on continuing operations of 49% is (16.0)% related to the non-deductible non-cash goodwill impairment charge and 0.8% for other tax effects related to excluding this charge.
(3) Average invested capital represents a five quarter average of total assets less non-interest bearing liabilities and assets held for sale. 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)       FY12       FY11       FY10
Total Assets $ 4,254 $ 4,343 $ 4,585
Less: non-interest bearing liabilities (1,652 ) (1,638 )   (1,538 )
  Less: assets held for sale     - (175 ) (404 )
Average invested capital 2,602     2,530   2,643
Cumulative after-tax restructuring and asset impairment costs 4 102   2
Adjusted average invested capital $ 2,606 $ 2,632 $ 2,645

(4)       ROIC is calculated as earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, excluding restructuring and asset impairment costs, non-cash goodwill impairment and interest expense, computed on an after-tax basis as a percentage of adjusted average invested capital (as defined above).
