Category: Analysis 1 Identify the net increase/decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the two most recent years. 2 Compute Free Cash Flows (show your computations) for the two most recent years. Free Cash Flows can be computed in several ways, but we will use this formula in our class: Free Cash Flows = Cash flows from operating activities Additions to property, plant and equipment Dividends to shareholders Additions to property, plant and equipment can be found in the investing activities section. Some companies call it Capital expenditures, Investments in property and equipment, or something similar. Dividends to shareholders can be found in the financing activities section. Some companies call it Dividends paid or something similar. Please include the name of your company in the subject line and the link to your company's 10-K in your posting. Example: Johnson & Johnson (J&J) (THIS IS HOW IT NEEDS TO LOOK) Use this example as a guide for answering these discussion questions for your company. For this example, please refer to the J&J's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on page 24 of its 2014 10-K. Cash Flows from/for Operating Activities 2014 2013 Net earnings $16,323 $13,831 Net cash flows from operating activities 18,471 17,414 Note the positive amount of Net cash flows from operating activities, which is a good sign and shows that J&J is generating cash flows from selling their products. Identify three significant operating activities for your company. Please note that you do not need to identify the exact same three items that I identified for J&J, and you should use the titles/phrases used by your company and not the ones used by J&J. 2014 2013 Depreciation and amortization of property and intangibles $3,895 $4,104 Net gain on sale of assets/businesses (2,383) (113) Increase in inventories (1,120) (622) Cash Flows from/for Investing and Financing Activities Identify three significant investing and financing activities. Please note that you do not need to identify the exact same three items that I identified for J&J, and you should use the titles used by your company and not the ones used by J&J. For example, if your company uses the phrase Capital Expenditures instead of Additions to property, plant and equipment, then you should also use the phrase Capital Expenditures. Three significant investing activities 2014 2013 Additions to property, plant and equipment ($3,714) ($3,595) Purchases of investments (34,913) (18,923) Sales of investments 24,119 18,058 Three significant financing activities 2014 2013 Dividends to shareholders ($7,768) ($7,286) Repurchase of common stock (7,124) (3,538) Proceeds from long-term debt 2,098 3,607 Analysis 2014 2013 calculations (Decrease)/Increase in cash and cash equivalents ($6,404) $6,016 amounts given Free Cash Flows 6,989 6,533 Cash flows from operating activities Additions to property, plant and equipment Dividends to shareholders 2014: 18,471 3,714 7,768 2013: 17,414 3,595 7,286
