MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--General Mills (NYSE: GIS) today reported results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 29, 2022.

“Fiscal 2022 was another successful year for General Mills, marking the fourth consecutive year that we’ve delivered results that met or exceeded our targets for top and bottom-line growth and cash generation,” said General Mills Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jeff Harmening. “I am proud of the way our team advanced our Accelerate strategy this year by executing well on our core business while taking significant steps to reshape our portfolio. Though significant inflation and supply chain disruptions put pressure on our margins, we responded quickly to address those challenges and keep our brands on shelf for our customers and consumers.

“We plan to build on our strong momentum in fiscal 2023 by continuing to compete effectively, investing in our brands and capabilities, and reshaping our portfolio. Importantly, our board reinforced its confidence in our performance and outlook by approving a six percent increase in our dividend, underlining our commitment to driving strong returns for General Mills shareholders over the long term.”

General Mills is executing its Accelerate strategy to drive sustainable, profitable growth and top-tier shareholder returns over the long term. The strategy focuses on four pillars to create competitive advantages and win: boldly building brands, relentlessly innovating, unleashing scale, and being a force for good. The company is prioritizing its core markets, global platforms, and local gem brands that have the best prospects for profitable growth and is committed to reshaping its portfolio with strategic acquisitions and divestitures, including seven transactions announced or completed in fiscal 2022, to further enhance its growth profile.

Fourth Quarter Results Summary

  • Net sales increased 8 percent to $4.9 billion, including a 4-point net headwind from divestiture and acquisition activity and one point of unfavorable foreign currency exchange. Organic net sales increased 13 percent. Organic net price realization and mix added 14 points to organic net sales growth, driven by Strategic Revenue Management (SRM) actions put in place in response to significant input cost inflation including a 2-point benefit from index pricing on bakery flour in the North America Foodservice segment. Lower organic pound volume was a 2-point headwind to organic net sales growth.
  • Gross margin was up 120 basis points to 36.2 percent of net sales, driven by favorable net price realization and mix and mark-to-market effects, partially offset by higher input costs. Adjusted gross margin was down 70 basis points to 33.8 percent of net sales, driven by double-digit input cost inflation, higher other cost of goods sold, and supply chain deleverage, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix and Holistic Margin Management (HMM) cost savings.
  • Operating profit of $1.0 billion was up 85 percent, driven primarily by higher gross profit dollars, lower restructuring charges, and divestiture gains, partially offset by unfavorable net investment activity. Operating profit margin of 20.8 percent was up 870 basis points. Constant-currency adjusted operating profit increased 21 percent, driven by higher adjusted gross profit dollars and lower adjusted selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses. Adjusted operating profit margin increased 200 basis points to 18.3 percent.
  • Net earnings attributable to General Mills were up 97 percent to $823 million and diluted EPS was up 98 percent to $1.35, driven primarily by higher operating profit and lower average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.12 increased 23 percent in constant currency, driven primarily by higher adjusted operating profit and lower average diluted shares outstanding.

Full Year Results Summary

  • Net sales increased 5 percent to $19.0 billion, including a 1-point net headwind from divestiture and acquisition activity. Organic net sales increased 6 percent. Organic net price realization and mix added 7 points to organic net sales growth, driven by SRM actions put in place in response to significant input cost inflation including a 1-point benefit from index pricing on bakery flour in the North America Foodservice segment. Lower organic pound volume was a 1-point headwind to organic net sales growth.
  • Gross margin was down 190 basis points to 33.7 percent of net sales, driven by higher input costs, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix. Adjusted gross margin was down 180 basis points to 33.0 percent of net sales, driven by 8 percent annual input cost inflation, higher other cost of goods sold, and supply chain deleverage, partially offset by favorable net price realization and mix and HMM cost savings.
  • Operating profit of $3.5 billion was up 11 percent, driven primarily by gains on divestitures and lower restructuring charges, partially offset by unfavorable net investment activity. Operating profit margin of 18.3 percent was up 100 basis points. Constant-currency adjusted operating profit increased 2 percent, driven by lower adjusted SG&A expenses. Adjusted operating profit margin decreased 50 basis points to 16.9 percent.
  • Net earnings attributable to General Mills were up 16 percent to $2.7 billion and diluted EPS was up 17 percent to $4.42, primarily reflecting higher operating profit, a lower effective tax rate, and lower average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted diluted EPS of $3.94 was up 4 percent in constant currency, driven primarily by higher adjusted operating profit, lower net interest expense, and lower average diluted shares outstanding, partially offset by lower non-service benefit plan income.

Portfolio Reshaping

General Mills took important steps to advance its portfolio reshaping efforts during fiscal 2022, announcing or closing seven transactions that are expected to increase the company’s top- and bottom-line growth profile over the long term. These include the acquisition of the Nudges, True Chews, and Top Chews pet treats brands in North America, which closed in the first quarter of fiscal 2022; the divestiture of yogurt in Europe, which closed in the second quarter of fiscal 2022; a series of divestitures of dough in Europe and Israel, which closed between the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and the first quarter of fiscal 2023; the acquisition of the TNT Crust foodservice pizza crust business in North America, which closed in the first quarter of fiscal 2023; and the prospective divestiture of the Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes businesses in North America, which is expected to close in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The adjusted effective tax rate was 20.9 percent compared to 21.1 percent a year ago.

Net earnings attributable to redeemable and non-controlling interests totaled $28 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $6 million a year ago, driven primarily by the loss on the sale of the Laticínios Carolina yogurt business in Brazil in fiscal 2021, partially offset by the sale of the company’s interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl in fiscal 2022.

Cash Flow Generation and Cash Returns

Fiscal 2022 cash provided by operating activities increased 11 percent to $3.3 billion, driven primarily by higher net earnings. Capital investments of $569 million were up 7 percent from a year ago. Full-year operating cash flow conversion was 121 percent of after-tax earnings and free cash flow conversion was 113 percent of adjusted after-tax earnings. Dividends paid essentially matched year-ago levels at $1.2 billion. General Mills repurchased approximately 14 million shares of common stock in fiscal 2022 for a total of $877 million compared to $301 million in share repurchases a year ago. Average diluted shares outstanding decreased 1 percent to 613 million.

Dividend Increase

The General Mills board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.54 per share, payable August 1, 2022, to shareholders of record July 8, 2022. This represents a 6 percent increase from the previous quarterly rate of $0.51 per share. General Mills and its predecessor company have paid dividends without interruption for 123 years.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

General Mills expects the largest factors impacting its performance in fiscal 2023 will be the economic health of consumers, the inflationary cost environment, and the frequency and severity of disruptions in the supply chain. The company anticipates double-digit inflation on its cost of goods sold in fiscal 2023 and is addressing inflation headwinds with HMM cost savings and net price realization generated through its SRM capability. The company is planning for volume elasticities to increase but remain below historical levels and supply chain disruptions to slowly moderate in fiscal 2023 compared to fiscal 2022 levels.

General Mills has announced a series of portfolio reshaping transactions over the past year that are expected to increase the company’s top- and bottom-line growth profile over the long term. The company estimates the net impact of these transactions will reduce fiscal 2023 adjusted operating profit growth and adjusted diluted EPS growth by approximately 3 percent each, driven by the impact of foregone operating profit and stranded costs related to the divested businesses, partially offset by incremental profit from the acquired businesses. The company expects the net proceeds from the divestitures will support an increased share repurchase plan in fiscal 2023, resulting in a 2 to 3 percent net reduction in its average diluted share count for the year, which is above its long-run target of a 1 to 2 percent annual net share count reduction.

With these assumptions in mind, General Mills outlined its key full-year fiscal 2023 financial targets:

  • Organic net sales are expected to increase 4 to 5 percent.
  • Adjusted operating profit is expected to range between down 2 percent and up 1 percent in constant currency from the base of $3.2 billion reported in fiscal 2022, including a 3-point net headwind from divestitures and acquisitions announced or closed in fiscal 2022.
  • Adjusted diluted EPS are expected to range between flat and up 3 percent in constant currency from the base of $3.94 earned in fiscal 2022, including a 3-point net headwind from divestitures and acquisitions announced or closed in fiscal 2022.
  • Free cash flow conversion is expected to be at least 90 percent of adjusted after-tax earnings.
  • The net impact of divestitures, acquisitions, and foreign currency exchange is expected to reduce full-year reported net sales growth by approximately 3 percent, and foreign currency exchange is expected to reduce adjusted operating profit and adjusted diluted EPS growth by approximately 1 percent.

General Mills will issue pre-recorded management remarks today, June 29, 2022, at approximately 6:30 a.m. Central time (7:30 a.m. Eastern time) and will hold a live, webcasted question and answer session beginning at 8:00 a.m. Central time (9:00 a.m. Eastern time).

GENERAL MILLS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

   

(1)

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of General Mills, Inc. (we, us, our, General Mills, or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for annual and interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

 

Our fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in May. Fiscal years 2022 and 2021 consist of 52 weeks, while fiscal 2020 consisted of 53 weeks.

 

As part of a long-term plan to conform the fiscal year ends of all our operations, in fiscal 2020 we changed the reporting period of our Pet segment from an April fiscal year-end to a May fiscal year-end to match our fiscal calendar. Accordingly, our fiscal 2020 results include 13 months of Pet segment results compared to 12 months in fiscal 2022 and 2021. The impact of this change was not material to our consolidated results of operations and, therefore, we did not restate prior period financial statements for comparability. Our India business is on an April fiscal year end.

 

(2)

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust. The transaction closed subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business to Eagle Family Foods Group for approximately $610 million. We expect to close the divestiture in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. We have classified all related assets as held for sale in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 29, 2022.

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we sold our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl to Sodiaal International (Sodiaal) in exchange for Sodiaal’s interest in our Canadian yogurt business, a modified agreement for the use of Yoplait and Liberté brands in the United States and Canada, and cash. We recorded a net pre-tax gain of $164 million on the sale of these businesses including an additional net pre-tax gain of $15 million related to purchase price adjustments in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we acquired Tyson Foods’ pet treats business for $1.2 billion in cash. We financed the transaction with a combination of cash on hand and short-term debt. We consolidated Tyson Foods’ pet treats business into our Consolidated Balance Sheets and recorded goodwill of $762 million, indefinite-lived intangible assets for the Nudges, Top Chews, and True Chews brands totaling $330 million in aggregate, and a finite-lived customer relationship asset of $40 million. The goodwill is included in the Pet reporting unit and is deductible for tax purposes. The pro forma effects of this acquisition were not material.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $54 million related to the sale of our Laticínios Carolina business in Brazil.

Restructuring and impairment charges and project-related costs are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as follows:

In fiscal 2022, we approved restructuring actions in the International segment to drive efficiencies in manufacturing and logistics operations. We expect to incur approximately $21 million of restructuring charges and project-related costs related to these actions, of which approximately $12 million will be cash. These charges are expected to consist of approximately $8 million of severance and $10 million of other costs, primarily asset write-offs. We also expect to incur approximately $3 million of project-related costs. We recognized $8 million of severance and $7 million of other costs in fiscal 2022. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2024.

 

As a result of shifts in the composition of estimated expenses related to our previously announced global organizational structure and resource realignment actions, we recorded a $34 million reduction to our restructuring reserves as of May 29, 2022, primarily related to estimated severance charges. We expect these actions to incur total restructuring charges of approximately $125 million to $135 million, of which we expect approximately $100 million to be severance and $30 million of other costs. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2023.

 

In fiscal 2021, we approved restructuring actions designed to better align our organization structure and resources with strategic initiatives and recognized $157 million of restructuring charges, consisting of $149 million of severance and other benefits costs and $8 million of other costs. In fiscal 2021, we also approved restructuring actions to leverage more efficient and effective route- to-market models and to optimize our supply chain in our International segment and recognized $13 million of restructuring charges related to these actions, consisting of $9 million of severance costs and $4 million of other costs.

 

(4)

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, unallocated corporate expense decreased $40 million to $74 million compared to $114 million last year. We recorded a $117 million net decrease in expense related to mark-to-market valuations of certain commodity positions and grain inventories in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to a $21 million net decrease in expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2022, we recorded $36 million of net losses related to the sale of corporate investments and valuation adjustments, compared to $2 million of net losses in fiscal 2021. We recorded $2 million of integration costs related to acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business and $16 million of transaction costs primarily related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl, the definitive agreements to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business, and definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust in fiscal 2022, compared to $9 million of transaction costs in fiscal 2021. In addition, we recorded a $2 million recovery related to a Brazil indirect tax item in fiscal 2022 compared to a $9 million recovery in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2021, we recorded a $3 million favorable adjustment related to a product recall in fiscal 2020 in our international Green Giant business.
 

In fiscal 2022, unallocated corporate expense increased $191 million to $403 million compared to $212 million last year. In fiscal 2022, we recorded a $133 million net decrease in expense related to mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions and grain inventories, compared to a $139 million net decrease in expense in the prior year. In fiscal 2022, we recorded $15 million of net losses related to the sale of corporate investments and valuation adjustments, compared to $76 million of net gains in fiscal 2021. We recorded $22 million of integration costs related to our acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business and $73 million of transaction costs primarily related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl, the definitive agreements to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business, and definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust in fiscal 2022 compared to $10 million of transaction costs in fiscal 2021.

The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was 14.3 percent compared to 22.3 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The 8.0 percentage point decrease was primarily due to a change in valuation allowance on our capital loss carryforward, certain non-taxable components of the divestiture gains, and certain unfavorable non-recurring discrete tax items in fiscal 2021. Our adjusted effective tax rate was 19.0 percent in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to 18.5 percent in the same period last year (see Note 7 below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

 

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2022 was 18.3 percent compared to 22.0 percent in fiscal 2021. The 3.7 percentage point decrease was primarily due to a change in valuation allowance on our capital loss carryforward, certain non-taxable components of the divestiture gains, and favorable changes in earnings mix by jurisdiction. Our adjusted effective tax rate was 20.9 percent in fiscal 2022, compared to 21.1 percent in the same period of fiscal 2021 (see Note 7 below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

We have included measures in this release that are not defined by GAAP. For each of these non-GAAP financial measures, we are providing below a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP measure and the most directly comparable GAAP measure, an explanation of why we believe the non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors and any additional material purposes for which our management or Board of Directors uses the non-GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the comparable GAAP measure.

 

We provide organic net sales growth rates for our consolidated net sales and segment net sales. This measure is used in reporting to our Board of Directors and executive management and as a component of the Board of Directors’ measurement of our performance for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that organic net sales growth rates provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to underlying performance in our net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, acquisitions, divestitures, and a 53rd week, when applicable, have on year-to-year comparability. A reconciliation of these measures to reported net sales growth rates, the relevant GAAP measures, are included in our Operating Segment Results above.

 

Certain measures in this release are presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange (constant-currency). To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year. Therefore, the foreign currency impact is equal to current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in the average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We believe that these constant-currency measures provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to underlying performance by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-to-period comparability given volatility in foreign currency exchange markets.

 

Also, certain measures in this release are presented on an adjusted basis. The adjustments are either items resulting from infrequently occurring events or items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the year-to-year assessment of operating results.

 

Our fiscal 2023 outlook for organic net sales growth, constant-currency adjusted operating profit, adjusted diluted EPS, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude, or have otherwise been adjusted for, items impacting comparability, including the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, restructuring charges and project-related costs, acquisition transaction and integration costs, acquisitions, divestitures, and mark-to-market effects. We are not able to reconcile these forward- looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices or the timing or impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and restructuring actions throughout fiscal 2023. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our fiscal 2023 GAAP financial results.

 

For fiscal 2023, we currently expect: foreign currency exchange rates (based on a blend of forward and forecasted rates and hedge positions) and acquisitions and divestitures completed prior to fiscal 2023 and those closed or expected to close in fiscal 2023 to reduce net sales growth by approximately 3 percent; foreign currency exchange rates to reduce adjusted operating profit and adjusted diluted EPS growth by approximately 1 percent; and restructuring charges and project-related costs and transaction and acquisition integration costs related to actions previously announced to total approximately $15 million to $25 million.

Significant Items Impacting Comparability

Several measures below are presented on an adjusted basis. The adjustments are either items resulting from infrequently occurring events or items that, in management’s judgement, significantly affect the year-to-year assessment of operating results.

The following are descriptions of significant items impacting comparability of our results.

Divestitures (gain) loss Divestitures gain related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl and the sale of our European dough businesses in fiscal 2022. Divestiture loss related to the sale of our Laticínios Carolina business in Brazil in fiscal 2021. Please see Note 2.

Transaction costs Fiscal 2022 transaction costs relate primarily to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl, the sale of our European dough businesses, the definitive agreements to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business, and the definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust. Fiscal 2021 transaction costs related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl and the acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business. Please see Note 2.

Non-income tax recovery Recovery related to a Brazil indirect tax item recorded in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021. Please see Note 4.

Acquisition integration costs Integration costs resulting from the acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business. Please see Note 4.

Investment activity, net Valuation adjustments and the gain on sale of certain corporate investments in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021. Valuation adjustments and the loss on sale of certain corporate investments in fiscal 2020. Please see Note 4.

Mark-to-market effects Net mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions recognized in unallocated corporate items. Please see Note 4.

Restructuring (recoveries) charges Restructuring charges for International supply chain optimization actions and net restructuring recoveries for previously announced restructuring actions in fiscal 2022. Restructuring charges for previously announced restructuring actions in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020. Please see Note 3.

Product recall Product recall adjustment recorded in fiscal 2021 related to a recall in our international Green Giant business in fiscal 2020. Please see Note 4.

CPW restructuring charges CPW restructuring charges related to previously announced restructuring actions.

Tax items Discrete tax benefit recognized in fiscal 2022 related to a release of a valuation allowance associated with our capital loss carryforwards expected to be used against future divestiture gains. Discrete tax item related to amendments to reorganize certain U.S. retiree health and welfare benefits plans in fiscal 2021. Discrete tax benefit related to the reorganization of certain wholly owned subsidiaries in fiscal 2020.

Adjusted Operating Profit Growth on a Constant-currency Basis

This measure is used in reporting to our Board of Directors and executive management and as a component of the measurement of our performance for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it is the operating profit measure we use to evaluate operating profit performance on a comparable year-to-year basis. The measure is evaluated on a constant-currency basis by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on year-to-year comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange rates.

Our adjusted operating profit growth on a constant-currency basis is calculated as follows:

Constant-currency Segment Operating Profit Growth Rates

We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it provides transparency to underlying performance of our segments by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on year-to-year comparability given volatility in foreign currency exchange markets.

Our segments' operating profit growth rates on a constant-currency basis are calculated as follows:

1 Пожалуйста, смотрите Примечание 7 к Консолидированной финансовой отчетности ниже для сверки этого и других показателей, не относящихся к GAAP, используемых в этом выпуске.

МИННЕАПОЛИС -(BUSINESS WIRE)-General Mills (NYSE: GIS) сегодня сообщила о результатах за четвертый квартал и финансовый год, закончившийся 29 мая 2022 года.

“2022 финансовый год стал еще одним успешным годом для General Mills, отметив четвертый год подряд, когда мы добились результатов, которые достигли или превысили наши целевые показатели по росту прибыли и прибыли и генерированию денежных средств”, - сказал председатель правления и главный исполнительный директор General Mills Джефф Харменинг. “Я горжусь тем, как наша команда продвинула нашу стратегию ускорения в этом году, успешно реализовав наш основной бизнес и предприняв значительные шаги по изменению нашего портфеля. Несмотря на то, что значительная инфляция и сбои в цепочках поставок оказали давление на нашу маржу, мы быстро отреагировали на эти проблемы и сохранили наши бренды на полках для наших клиентов и потребителей.

“Мы планируем развить наш сильный импульс в 2023 финансовом году, продолжая эффективно конкурировать, инвестируя в наши бренды и возможности, а также изменяя наш портфель. Важно отметить, что наш совет директоров укрепил свою уверенность в наших результатах и перспективах, одобрив шестипроцентное увеличение наших дивидендов, подчеркнув нашу приверженность обеспечению высокой доходности для акционеров General Mills в долгосрочной перспективе”.

General Mills реализует свою стратегию ускорения, направленную на обеспечение устойчивого, прибыльного роста и доходности акционеров высшего уровня в долгосрочной перспективе. Стратегия фокусируется на четырех столпах создания конкурентных преимуществ и победы: смелое создание брендов, неустанные инновации, расширение масштабов и стремление к добру. Компания уделяет приоритетное внимание своим основным рынкам, глобальным платформам и местным брендам драгоценных камней, которые имеют наилучшие перспективы для прибыльного роста, и стремится изменить свой портфель за счет стратегических приобретений и распродаж, включая семь сделок, объявленных или завершенных в 2022 финансовом году, чтобы еще больше повысить свой профиль роста.

Сводка результатов за Четвертый квартал

  • Чистые продажи выросли на 8 процентов до 4,9 миллиарда долларов, включая чистый встречный ветер на 4 пункта из-за распродажи и поглощений и один пункт из-за неблагоприятного обмена иностранной валюты. Чистые органические продажи выросли на 13 процентов. Реализация и смешивание органических продуктов по чистой цене добавили 14 пунктов к органическому росту чистых продаж, чему способствовали меры Стратегического управления доходами (SRM), принятые в ответ на значительную инфляцию затрат на сырье, включая 2-процентную выгоду от индексных цен на хлебобулочную муку в сегменте общественного питания Северной Америки. Снижение органического объема продаж в фунтах стерлингов стало встречным ветром на 2 пункта для органического роста чистых продаж.
  • Валовая прибыль выросла на 120 базисных пунктов до 36,2 процента от чистых продаж, что обусловлено благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене, а также эффектом смешивания и выхода на рынок, частично компенсируемым более высокими затратами на ввод. Скорректированная валовая прибыль снизилась на 70 базисных пунктов до 33,8 процента от чистых продаж, что обусловлено двузначной инфляцией затрат на ввод, более высокой прочей себестоимостью проданных товаров и сокращением доли заемных средств в цепочке поставок, что частично компенсируется благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене и экономией затрат на комплексное и целостное управление маржой (HMM).
  • Операционная прибыль в размере 1,0 миллиарда долларов выросла на 85 процентов, главным образом за счет увеличения валовой прибыли в долларах, снижения расходов на реструктуризацию и прибыли от продажи активов, частично компенсированной неблагоприятной чистой инвестиционной активностью. Маржа операционной прибыли в размере 20,8 процента выросла на 870 базисных пунктов. Скорректированная на постоянную валюту операционная прибыль увеличилась на 21 процент, что обусловлено более высокой скорректированной валовой прибылью в долларах и более низкими скорректированными расходами на продажу, общие и административные расходы (SG&A). Скорректированная маржа операционной прибыли увеличилась на 200 базисных пунктов до 18,3 процента.
  • Чистая прибыль, приходящаяся на General Mills, выросла на 97 процентов до 823 миллионов долларов, а разводненная прибыль на акцию выросла на 98 процентов до 1,35 доллара США, главным образом за счет более высокой операционной прибыли и более низких средних разводненных акций в обращении. Скорректированная разводненная прибыль на акцию в размере 1,12 доллара США увеличилась на 23 процента в постоянной валюте, главным образом за счет более высокой скорректированной операционной прибыли и более низких средних разводненных акций в обращении.

Сводка Результатов За Весь Год

  • Чистые продажи выросли на 5 процентов до 19,0 миллиарда долларов, включая чистый прирост на 1 пункт в результате продажи и поглощения. Чистые органические продажи выросли на 6 процентов. Реализация органической муки по чистой цене и смешивание добавили 7 пунктов к органическому росту чистых продаж, чему способствовали действия SRM, предпринятые в ответ на значительную инфляцию затрат на сырье, включая выгоду на 1 пункт от индексных цен на хлебобулочную муку в сегменте общественного питания Северной Америки. Снижение органического объема продаж в фунтах стерлингов стало встречным ветром на 1 пункт для органического роста чистых продаж.
  • Валовая прибыль снизилась на 190 базисных пунктов до 33,7 процента от чистых продаж, что обусловлено более высокими затратами на ввод, частично компенсируемыми благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене и сочетанием. Скорректированная валовая прибыль снизилась на 180 базисных пунктов до 33,0% от чистого объема продаж, что обусловлено 8-процентной годовой инфляцией затрат на ввод, более высокой прочей себестоимостью проданных товаров и сокращением издержек в цепочке поставок, что частично компенсируется благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене и снижением затрат на смешивание и переработку.
  • Операционная прибыль в размере 3,5 миллиарда долларов выросла на 11 процентов, главным образом за счет прибыли от продажи активов и снижения расходов на реструктуризацию, частично компенсированных неблагоприятной чистой инвестиционной активностью. Рентабельность по операционной прибыли в размере 18,3 процента выросла на 100 базисных пунктов. Скорректированная на постоянную валюту операционная прибыль увеличилась на 2 процента, что обусловлено более низкими скорректированными расходами на НИОКР. Скорректированная маржа операционной прибыли снизилась на 50 базисных пунктов до 16,9 процента.
  • Чистая прибыль, приходящаяся на General Mills, выросла на 16 процентов до 2,7 миллиарда долларов, а разводненная прибыль на акцию выросла на 17 процентов до 4,42 доллара, что в основном отражает более высокую операционную прибыль, более низкую эффективную налоговую ставку и более низкие средние разводненные акции в обращении. Скорректированная разводненная прибыль на акцию в размере $3,94 выросла на 4% в постоянной валюте, главным образом за счет более высокой скорректированной операционной прибыли, более низких чистых процентных расходов и более низких средних разводненных акций в обращении, что частично компенсируется более низким доходом от плана выплат, не связанных с обслуживанием.

Изменение структуры портфолио

General Mills предприняла важные шаги для продвижения своих усилий по изменению структуры портфеля в течение 2022 финансового года, объявив или закрыв семь сделок, которые, как ожидается, увеличат показатели роста прибыли и прибыли компании в долгосрочной перспективе. К ним относятся приобретение брендов Nudges, True Chews и Top Chews pet treats в Северной Америке, которые закрылись в первом квартале 2022 финансового года; продажа йогурта в Европе, которая закрылась во втором квартале 2022 финансового года; серия продаж теста в Европе и Израиле, которые закрыта в период с третьего квартала 2022 финансового года по первый квартал 2023 финансового года; приобретение бизнеса TNT Crust foodservice pizza crust в Северной Америке, который был закрыт в первом квартале 2023 финансового года; и предполагаемая продажа предприятий по производству вторых блюд и гарниров к салатам в Северной Америке, которые ожидается, что он будет закрыт в первом квартале 2023 финансового года.

Чистая реализация и смешивание цен добавили 19 пунктов к чистому росту продаж, чему способствовали 11 пунктов рыночного индекса цен на хлебобулочную муку и другие меры SRM, принятые в ответ на значительный рост затрат на сырье. Объем продаж в фунтах добавил 5 пунктов к чистому росту продаж. Чистые органические продажи также выросли на 24 процента. Операционная прибыль сегмента увеличилась на 26% до 256 миллионов долларов США благодаря благоприятной реализации по чистой цене и ассортименту, а также увеличению объема, что частично компенсировалось более высокими затратами на ввод.

Международный сегмент

Чистый объем продаж в международном сегменте в четвертом квартале снизился на 21% до 750 миллионов долларов, включая снижение на 25 пунктов из-за продажи европейских предприятий по производству йогуртов и теста и на 2 пункта из-за неблагоприятного обменного курса иностранной валюты. Чистые органические продажи выросли на 6 процентов. Операционная прибыль сегмента в размере 76 миллионов долларов выросла на 36 процентов, как сообщалось, и на 40 процентов в постоянной валюте, что обусловлено, в первую очередь, благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене и смесью, а также снижением затрат на НИОКР, частично компенсируемых снижением объема, в том числе влиянием распродажи йогуртов и теста в Европе, и более высокими затратами на сырье.

За весь год международные чистые продажи снизились на 9 процентов до 3,3 миллиарда долларов, в том числе на 12 пунктов из-за продажи европейских предприятий по производству йогуртов и теста и на 1 пункт из-за благоприятного обмена иностранной валюты. Чистые продажи органической продукции выросли на 2 процента благодаря благоприятной реализации и сочетанию чистых цен на органическую продукцию. Операционная прибыль сегмента в размере 232 миллионов долларов снизилась на 2 процента, как сообщалось, и на 4 процента в постоянной валюте, что обусловлено главным образом более высокими затратами на сырье и меньшими объемами, включая влияние распродажи йогуртов и теста в Европе, что частично компенсируется благоприятной реализацией по чистой цене и смесью, а также снижением затрат на НИОКР.

Краткое описание Совместного предприятия

Чистые продажи в четвертом квартале для зерновых партнеров по всему миру (CPW) в основном соответствовали результатам годичной давности в неизменной валюте, что обусловлено положительной реализацией по чистой цене и сочетанием, компенсируемым меньшим объемом. Чистые продажи Häagen-Dazs Japan (HDJ) в постоянной валюте увеличились на 6 процентов за квартал благодаря высоким основным показателям и улучшению дистрибуции. Совокупная прибыль от совместных предприятий после уплаты налогов за квартал составила 20 миллионов долларов по сравнению с 28 миллионами долларов год назад, что обусловлено главным образом снижением прибыли CPW. За весь год прибыль от совместных предприятий после уплаты налогов снизилась на 5 процентов и составила 112 миллионов долларов. На основе совокупного роста за 3 года по сравнению с уровнями, существовавшими до пандемии, прибыль после уплаты налогов от совместных предприятий выросла на 16 процентов.

Прочие Статьи Отчета О прибылях и убытках

Нераспределенные корпоративные статьи за весь год составили 403 миллиона долларов чистых расходов по сравнению с 212 миллионами долларов чистых расходов год назад. Без учета влияния рыночной оценки и других статей, влияющих на сопоставимость, нераспределенные корпоративные статьи составили в этом году чистые расходы в размере 445 миллионов долларов США по сравнению с чистыми расходами в размере 428 миллионов долларов США в прошлом году.

Компания зафиксировала чистую прибыль до налогообложения в размере 194 миллионов долларов США от продажи активов в 2022 финансовом году по сравнению с убытком в размере 54 миллионов долларов год назад (пожалуйста, смотрите Примечание 2 ниже для получения дополнительной информации по этим статьям). Реструктуризация, обесценение и другие расходы на выход составили в этом году чистое возмещение в размере 26 миллионов долларов США по сравнению с расходами в размере 170 миллионов долларов год назад (пожалуйста, смотрите Примечание 3 ниже для получения дополнительной информации об этих расходах).

Чистые процентные расходы в 2022 финансовом году составили 380 миллионов долларов по сравнению с 420 миллионами долларов год назад, что обусловлено главным образом более низким средним балансом долга. Эффективная налоговая ставка на 2022 финансовый год составила 18,3 процента по сравнению с 22,0 процента в прошлом году (пожалуйста, смотрите Примечание 6 ниже для получения дополнительной информации о нашей эффективной налоговой ставке). Скорректированная эффективная налоговая ставка составила 20,9 процента по сравнению с 21,1 процента год назад.

Чистая прибыль, приходящаяся на выкупаемые и неконтролирующие доли участия, составила 28 миллионов долларов в 2022 финансовом году по сравнению с 6 миллионами долларов год назад, в основном за счет убытка от продажи йогуртового бизнеса Laticínios Carolina в Бразилии в 2021 финансовом году, частично компенсированного продажей доли компании в Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC и Liberté Marques Sàrl в 2022 финансовом году.

Формирование денежных потоков и возврат денежных средств

Денежные средства, полученные от операционной деятельности в 2022 финансовом году, увеличились на 11 процентов до 3,3 миллиарда долларов, главным образом за счет увеличения чистой прибыли. Капитальные вложения в размере 569 миллионов долларов выросли на 7 процентов по сравнению с прошлым годом. Пересчет операционного денежного потока за весь год составил 121% от прибыли после уплаты налогов, а пересчет свободного денежного потока составил 113% от скорректированной прибыли после уплаты налогов. Выплаченные дивиденды практически соответствовали уровню прошлого года и составили 1,2 миллиарда долларов. General Mills выкупил около 14 миллионов обыкновенных акций в 2022 финансовом году на общую сумму 877 миллионов долларов по сравнению с выкупом акций на 301 миллион долларов год назад. Среднее количество разводненных акций в обращении сократилось на 1 процент до 613 миллионов.

Увеличение дивидендов

Совет директоров General Mills объявил о выплате ежеквартальных дивидендов в размере 0,54 доллара на акцию, подлежащих выплате 1 августа 2022 года акционерам record 8 июля 2022 года. Это представляет собой 6-процентное увеличение по сравнению с предыдущим квартальным показателем в размере 0,51 доллара на акцию. General Mills и его предшественница компания выплачивали дивиденды без перерыва в течение 123 лет.

Прогноз на 2023 финансовый год

General Mills ожидает, что основными факторами, влияющими на его показатели в 2023 финансовом году, будут экономическое состояние потребителей, инфляционные издержки, а также частота и серьезность сбоев в цепочке поставок. Компания ожидает двузначную инфляцию стоимости проданных товаров в 2023 финансовом году и борется с инфляционными препятствиями за счет экономии затрат и реализации чистой цены, полученной благодаря возможностям SRM. Компания планирует, что эластичность объемов увеличится, но останется ниже исторических уровней, а сбои в цепочках поставок постепенно уменьшатся в 2023 финансовом году по сравнению с уровнями 2022 финансового года.

General Mills объявила о серии сделок по изменению структуры портфеля за последний год, которые, как ожидается, увеличат показатели роста прибыли и прибыли компании в долгосрочной перспективе. По оценкам компании, чистое влияние этих сделок приведет к снижению скорректированного роста операционной прибыли в 2023 финансовом году и скорректированного роста разводненной прибыли на акцию примерно на 3 процента каждый, что обусловлено влиянием упущенной операционной прибыли и непредвиденных расходов, связанных с отчуждением бизнеса, частично компенсируемых дополнительной прибылью от приобретенных предприятий. Компания ожидает, что чистая выручка от продажи поддержит увеличенный план обратного выкупа акций в 2023 финансовом году, что приведет к чистому сокращению среднего разводненного количества акций на 2-3 процента за год, что выше ее долгосрочной цели по сокращению чистого количества акций на 1-2 процента в год.

Принимая во внимание эти предположения, General Mills изложил свои ключевые финансовые цели на весь 2023 финансовый год:

  • Ожидается, что чистые органические продажи увеличатся на 4-5 процентов.
  • Ожидается, что скорректированная операционная прибыль снизится на 2% и увеличится на 1% в постоянной валюте по сравнению с базовым показателем в 3,2 миллиарда долларов, о котором сообщалось в 2022 финансовом году, включая чистый встречный ветер на 3 пункта из-за продажи и поглощений, объявленных или закрытых в 2022 финансовом году.
  • Ожидается, что скорректированная разводненная прибыль на акцию составит от неизменной до 3% в постоянной валюте по сравнению с базовой суммой в 3,94 доллара США, полученной в 2022 финансовом году, включая чистый встречный ветер на 3 пункта от продажи и поглощений, объявленных или закрытых в 2022 финансовом году.
  • Ожидается, что конвертация свободного денежного потока составит не менее 90 процентов скорректированной прибыли после уплаты налогов.
  • Ожидается, что чистое влияние распродаж, приобретений и обмена иностранной валюты приведет к снижению чистого роста продаж за весь год примерно на 3 процента, а обмен иностранной валюты, как ожидается, снизит скорректированную операционную прибыль и скорректированный разводненный рост прибыли на акцию примерно на 1 процент.

General Mills, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

   

(1)

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of General Mills, Inc. (we, us, our, General Mills, or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for annual and interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

 

Our fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in May. Fiscal years 2022 and 2021 consist of 52 weeks, while fiscal 2020 consisted of 53 weeks.

 

As part of a long-term plan to conform the fiscal year ends of all our operations, in fiscal 2020 we changed the reporting period of our Pet segment from an April fiscal year-end to a May fiscal year-end to match our fiscal calendar. Accordingly, our fiscal 2020 results include 13 months of Pet segment results compared to 12 months in fiscal 2022 and 2021. The impact of this change was not material to our consolidated results of operations and, therefore, we did not restate prior period financial statements for comparability. Our India business is on an April fiscal year end.

 

(2)

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust. The transaction closed subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business to Eagle Family Foods Group for approximately $610 million. We expect to close the divestiture in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. We have classified all related assets as held for sale in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 29, 2022.

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we sold our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl to Sodiaal International (Sodiaal) in exchange for Sodiaal’s interest in our Canadian yogurt business, a modified agreement for the use of Yoplait and Liberté brands in the United States and Canada, and cash. We recorded a net pre-tax gain of $164 million on the sale of these businesses including an additional net pre-tax gain of $15 million related to purchase price adjustments in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we acquired Tyson Foods’ pet treats business for $1.2 billion in cash. We financed the transaction with a combination of cash on hand and short-term debt. We consolidated Tyson Foods’ pet treats business into our Consolidated Balance Sheets and recorded goodwill of $762 million, indefinite-lived intangible assets for the Nudges, Top Chews, and True Chews brands totaling $330 million in aggregate, and a finite-lived customer relationship asset of $40 million. The goodwill is included in the Pet reporting unit and is deductible for tax purposes. The pro forma effects of this acquisition were not material.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $54 million related to the sale of our Laticínios Carolina business in Brazil.

In fiscal 2022, we approved restructuring actions in the International segment to drive efficiencies in manufacturing and logistics operations. We expect to incur approximately $21 million of restructuring charges and project-related costs related to these actions, of which approximately $12 million will be cash. These charges are expected to consist of approximately $8 million of severance and $10 million of other costs, primarily asset write-offs. We also expect to incur approximately $3 million of project-related costs. We recognized $8 million of severance and $7 million of other costs in fiscal 2022. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2024.

 

As a result of shifts in the composition of estimated expenses related to our previously announced global organizational structure and resource realignment actions, we recorded a $34 million reduction to our restructuring reserves as of May 29, 2022, primarily related to estimated severance charges. We expect these actions to incur total restructuring charges of approximately $125 million to $135 million, of which we expect approximately $100 million to be severance and $30 million of other costs. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2023.

 

In fiscal 2021, we approved restructuring actions designed to better align our organization structure and resources with strategic initiatives and recognized $157 million of restructuring charges, consisting of $149 million of severance and other benefits costs and $8 million of other costs. In fiscal 2021, we also approved restructuring actions to leverage more efficient and effective route- to-market models and to optimize our supply chain in our International segment and recognized $13 million of restructuring charges related to these actions, consisting of $9 million of severance costs and $4 million of other costs.

 

(4)

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, unallocated corporate expense decreased $40 million to $74 million compared to $114 million last year. We recorded a $117 million net decrease in expense related to mark-to-market valuations of certain commodity positions and grain inventories in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to a $21 million net decrease in expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2022, we recorded $36 million of net losses related to the sale of corporate investments and valuation adjustments, compared to $2 million of net losses in fiscal 2021. We recorded $2 million of integration costs related to acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business and $16 million of transaction costs primarily related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl, the definitive agreements to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business, and definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust in fiscal 2022, compared to $9 million of transaction costs in fiscal 2021. In addition, we recorded a $2 million recovery related to a Brazil indirect tax item in fiscal 2022 compared to a $9 million recovery in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2021, we recorded a $3 million favorable adjustment related to a product recall in fiscal 2020 in our international Green Giant business.
 

In fiscal 2022, unallocated corporate expense increased $191 million to $403 million compared to $212 million last year. In fiscal 2022, we recorded a $133 million net decrease in expense related to mark-to-market valuation of certain commodity positions and grain inventories, compared to a $139 million net decrease in expense in the prior year. In fiscal 2022, we recorded $15 million of net losses related to the sale of corporate investments and valuation adjustments, compared to $76 million of net gains in fiscal 2021. We recorded $22 million of integration costs related to our acquisition of Tyson Foods’ pet treats business and $73 million of transaction costs primarily related to the sale of our interests in Yoplait SAS, Yoplait Marques SNC, and Liberté Marques Sàrl, the definitive agreements to sell our Helper main meals and Suddenly Salad side dishes business, and definitive agreement to acquire TNT Crust in fiscal 2022 compared to $10 million of transaction costs in fiscal 2021. In addition, we recorded a $22 million recovery related to a Brazil indirect tax item in fiscal 2022 compared to a $9 million recovery in fiscal 2021. We recorded a $13 million insurance recovery in fiscal 2022. In fiscal 2021, we recorded a $4 million favorable adjustment related to a product recall in fiscal 2020 in our international Green Giant business.

The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was 14.3 percent compared to 22.3 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The 8.0 percentage point decrease was primarily due to a change in valuation allowance on our capital loss carryforward, certain non-taxable components of the divestiture gains, and certain unfavorable non-recurring discrete tax items in fiscal 2021. Our adjusted effective tax rate was 19.0 percent in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to 18.5 percent in the same period last year (see Note 7 below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

 

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2022 was 18.3 percent compared to 22.0 percent in fiscal 2021. The 3.7 percentage point decrease was primarily due to a change in valuation allowance on our capital loss carryforward, certain non-taxable components of the divestiture gains, and favorable changes in earnings mix by jurisdiction. Our adjusted effective tax rate was 20.9 percent in fiscal 2022, compared to 21.1 percent in the same period of fiscal 2021 (see Note 7 below for a description of our use of measures not defined by GAAP).

 

(7)

We have included measures in this release that are not defined by GAAP. For each of these non-GAAP financial measures, we are providing below a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP measure and the most directly comparable GAAP measure, an explanation of why we believe the non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors and any additional material purposes for which our management or Board of Directors uses the non-GAAP measure. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the comparable GAAP measure.

 

We provide organic net sales growth rates for our consolidated net sales and segment net sales. This measure is used in reporting to our Board of Directors and executive management and as a component of the Board of Directors’ measurement of our performance for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that organic net sales growth rates provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to underlying performance in our net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, acquisitions, divestitures, and a 53rd week, when applicable, have on year-to-year comparability. A reconciliation of these measures to reported net sales growth rates, the relevant GAAP measures, are included in our Operating Segment Results above.

 

Certain measures in this release are presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange (constant-currency). To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year. Therefore, the foreign currency impact is equal to current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in the average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We believe that these constant-currency measures provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to underlying performance by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-to-period comparability given volatility in foreign currency exchange markets.

 

Also, certain measures in this release are presented on an adjusted basis. The adjustments are either items resulting from infrequently occurring events or items that, in management’s judgment, significantly affect the year-to-year assessment of operating results.

 

Our fiscal 2023 outlook for organic net sales growth, constant-currency adjusted operating profit, adjusted diluted EPS, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude, or have otherwise been adjusted for, items impacting comparability, including the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, restructuring charges and project-related costs, acquisition transaction and integration costs, acquisitions, divestitures, and mark-to-market effects. We are not able to reconcile these forward- looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices or the timing or impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and restructuring actions throughout fiscal 2023. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our fiscal 2023 GAAP financial results.

 

For fiscal 2023, we currently expect: foreign currency exchange rates (based on a blend of forward and forecasted rates and hedge positions) and acquisitions and divestitures completed prior to fiscal 2023 and those closed or expected to close in fiscal 2023 to reduce net sales growth by approximately 3 percent; foreign currency exchange rates to reduce adjusted operating profit and adjusted diluted EPS growth by approximately 1 percent; and restructuring charges and project-related costs and transaction and acquisition integration costs related to actions previously announced to total approximately $15 million to $25 million.
