H. J.
HEINZ COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
|
|
(1)
|
Basis of
Presentation
|
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of H. J.
Heinz Company, together with its subsidiaries (collectively
referred to as the Company), are unaudited. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal
and recurring nature, except those which have been disclosed
elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q,
necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations of
these interim periods, have been included. The results for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full fiscal year due to the seasonal nature
of the Companys business. Certain prior year amounts have
been reclassified to conform with the Fiscal 2011 presentation.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the
Companys consolidated financial statements and related
notes, and managements discussion and analysis of
financial condition and results of operations which appear in
the Companys Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended April 28, 2010.

Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
|
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued an amendment to the accounting and
disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets. This
amendment removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose
entity and requires that a transferor recognize and initially
measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities
incurred as a result of a transfer of financial assets accounted
for as a sale. This amendment also requires additional
disclosures about any transfers of financial assets and a
transferors continuing involvement with transferred
financial assets. The Company adopted this amendment on
April 29, 2010, the first day of Fiscal 2011. This adoption
did not have a material impact on the Companys financial
statements. Refer to Note 13 for additional information.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and
disclosure requirements for variable interest entities. This
amendment changes how a reporting entity determines when an
entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled
through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The
determination of whether a reporting entity is required to
consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the
purpose and design of the other entity and the reporting
entitys ability to direct the activities of the other
entity that most significantly impact its economic performance.
The amendment also requires additional disclosures about a
reporting entitys involvement with variable interest
entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to
that involvement. A reporting entity will be required to
disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity
affects the reporting entitys financial statements. The
Company adopted this amendment on April 29, 2010, the first
day of Fiscal 2011. This adoption did not have a material impact
on the Companys financial statements.

Discontinued
Operations
|
During Fiscal 2010, the Company completed the sales of its
Appetizers And, Inc. and Kabobs frozen hors doeuvres
businesses which were previously reported within the
U.S. Foodservice segment and the sale of its private label
frozen desserts business in the U.K. In accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the operating results related to these businesses have
been included in discontinued operations in the companys
consolidated statements of income for all periods presented.
These discontinued operations generated sales of
$26.2 million and a net loss of $2.2 million (net of
$0.9 million of a tax benefit) for the first quarter ended
July 29, 2009.

Amortization expense for trademarks and other intangible assets
was $7.1 million and $6.6 million for the quarters
ended July 28, 2010 and July 29, 2009, respectively.
Based upon the amortizable intangible assets recorded on the
balance sheet as of July 28, 2010, annual amortization
expense for each of the next five fiscal years is estimated to
be approximately $28 million.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization at July 28,
2010 totaled $832.2 million and consisted of
$684.8 million of trademarks, $115.6 million of
recipes/processes, and $31.8 million of licenses.
Intangible assets not subject to amortization at April 28,
2010, totaled $847.1 million and consisted of
$701.2 million of trademarks, $113.8 million of
recipes/processes, and $32.1 million of licenses.

The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for
uncertain tax positions, including positions impacting only the
timing of tax benefits, was $53.0 million and
$57.1 million, on July 28, 2010 and April 28,
2010, respectively. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits
that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate was
$35.4 million and $38.2 million, on July 28, 2010
and April 28, 2010, respectively. It is reasonably possible
that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by as
much as $27.5 million in the next 12 months due to the
expiration of statutes of limitations in various foreign
jurisdictions along with the progression of federal, state, and
foreign audits in process.
The Company classifies interest and penalties on tax
uncertainties as a component of the provision for income taxes.
The total amount of interest and penalties accrued at
July 28, 2010 was $14.1 million and $0.7 million,
respectively. The corresponding amounts of accrued interest and
penalties at April 28, 2010 were $17.3 million and
$1.2 million, respectively.
The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for
federal, state and foreign income taxes. The Company operates in
an international environment with significant operations in
various locations outside the U.S. Accordingly, the
consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the
earnings in various locations and the applicable tax rates. In
the normal course of business, the Company is subject to
examination by taxing authorities throughout the world,
including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, Italy,
the United Kingdom and the United States. The Company has
substantially concluded all national income tax matters for
years through Fiscal 2008 for the United Kingdom, through Fiscal
2007 for the U.S., through Fiscal 2006 in Canada, and through
Fiscal 2005 for Australia and Italy.
The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 25.3%
compared to 28.5% last year. The decrease in the effective tax
rate is primarily the result of increased benefits from foreign
tax planning and the benefit of a statutory tax rate reduction
in the United Kingdom, partially offset by higher repatriation
costs.

Employees
Stock Incentive Plans and Management Incentive Plans
|
At July 28, 2010, the Company had outstanding stock option
awards, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards
issued pursuant to various shareholder-approved plans and a
shareholder-authorized employee stock purchase plan, as
described on pages 61 to 66 of the Companys Annual Report
on
Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2010. The compensation
cost related to these plans recognized in general and
administrative expenses (G&A), and the related
tax benefit was $5.2 million and $1.6 million for the
first quarter ended July 28, 2010, and $6.3 million
and $1.9 million for the first quarter ended July 29,
2009, respectively.
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company granted
performance awards as permitted in the Fiscal Year 2003 Stock
Incentive Plan, subject to the achievement of certain
performance goals. These performance awards are tied to the
Companys relative Total Shareholder Return (Relative
TSR) Ranking within the defined Long-term Performance
Program (LTPP) peer group and the
2-year
average after-tax Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
metrics. The Relative TSR metric is based on the two-year
cumulative return to shareholders from the change in stock price
and dividends paid between the starting and ending dates. The
starting value was based on the average of each LTPP peer group
company stock price for the 60 trading days prior to and
including April 28, 2010. The ending value will be based on
the average stock price for the 60 trading days prior to
and including the close of the Fiscal 2012 year end, plus
dividends paid over the 2 year performance period. The
compensation cost related to current and prior period LTPP
awards recognized in G&A was $2.8 million, and the
related tax benefit was $0.9 million for the first quarter
ended July 28, 2010. The compensation cost related to LTPP
awards recognized in G&A was $2.6 million, and the
related tax benefit was $0.8 million for the first quarter
ended July 29, 2009.

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company contributed
$7 million to these defined benefit plans. The Company
expects to make combined cash contributions of less than
$50 million in Fiscal 2011; however actual contributions
may be affected by pension asset and liability valuations during
the year.
The Companys segments are primarily organized by
geographic area. The composition of segments and measure of
segment profitability are consistent with that used by the
Companys management.
Descriptions of the Companys reportable segments are as
follows:
North American Consumer ProductsThis segment primarily
manufactures, markets and sells ketchup, condiments, sauces,
pasta meals, and frozen potatoes, entrees, snacks, and
appetizers to the grocery channels in the United States of
America and includes our Canadian business.
EuropeThis segment includes the Companys operations
in Europe, including Eastern Europe and Russia, and sells
products in all of the Companys categories.
Asia/PacificThis segment includes the Companys
operations in Australia, New Zealand, India, Japan, China, South
Korea, Indonesia, and Singapore. This segments operations
include products in all of the Companys categories.
U.S. FoodserviceThis segment primarily manufactures,
markets and sells branded and customized products to commercial
and non-commercial food outlets and distributors in the United
States of America including ketchup, condiments, sauces, frozen
soups and desserts.
Rest of WorldThis segment includes the Companys
operations in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East that
sell products in all of the Companys categories.
The Companys management evaluates performance based on
several factors including net sales, operating income and the
use of capital resources. Inter-segment revenues, items below
the operating income line of the consolidated statements of
income, and certain costs associated with the corporation-wide
productivity initiatives in the prior year are not presented by
9
segment, since they are not reflected in the measure of segment
profitability reviewed by the Companys management.

Companys reportable segments:

In Fiscal 2010, the Company adopted accounting guidance for
determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment
transactions are participating securities. This guidance states
that unvested share-based payment awards that contain
non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents
(whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall
be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to
the two-class method.
Diluted earnings per share is based upon the average shares of
common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding
during the periods presented. Common stock equivalents arising
from dilutive stock options, restricted common stock units, and
the global stock purchase plan are computed using the treasury
stock method.
Options to purchase an aggregate of 2.9 million and
8.5 million shares of common stock for the first quarters
ended July 28, 2010 and July 29, 2009, respectively,
were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
share because inclusion of these options would be anti-dilutive.
These options expire at various points in time through 2017.

The allocation of the individual components of comprehensive
income attributable to H. J. Heinz Company and the
noncontrolling interest is disclosed in Note 10. |
At July 28, 2010, the Company had $1.7 billion of
credit agreements, $1.2 billion of which expires in April
2012 and $500 million which expires in April 2013. These
credit agreements support the Companys commercial paper
borrowings. As a result, the commercial paper borrowings are
classified as long-term debt based upon the Companys
intent and ability to refinance these borrowings on a long-term
basis. The credit agreements have identical covenants which
include a leverage ratio covenant in addition to customary
covenants. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt
covenants as of July 28, 2010.
|
|

|
Financing
Arrangements
|
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company entered into a
three-year $175 million accounts receivable securitization
program. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company sells, on
a revolving basis, its U.S. trade receivables to a
wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote-subsidiary. This subsidiary then
sells all of the rights, title and interest in these
receivables, all of which are short-term, to an unaffiliated
entity. On April 29, 2010, the Company adopted new
accounting guidance related to the transfer of financial assets.
The securitization agreement continues to qualify for sale
accounting treatment under the new guidance. After the sale, the
Company, as servicer of the assets, collects the receivables on
behalf of the unaffiliated entity. On the statements of cash
flows, all cash flows related to this securitization program are
included as a component of operating activities because the cash
received from the unaffiliated entity and the cash collected
from servicing the transferred assets are not subject to
significantly different risks due to the short-term nature of
the Companys trade receivables.
For the sale of receivables under the program, the Company
receives initial cash funding and a deferred purchase price. The
initial cash funding was $116.2 million and
$131.8 million during the first quarters ended
July 28, 2010 and July 29, 2009, respectively,
resulting in an increase of
13
cash for sales under this program for the first quarters ended
July 28, 2010 and July 29, 2009 of $32.0 million
and $131.8 million, respectively. The fair value of the
deferred purchase price was $37.6 million and
$89.2 million as of July 28, 2010 and April 28,
2010, respectively. Cash proceeds for the deferred purchase
price were $51.5 million for the first quarter ended
July 28, 2010. This deferred purchase price is included as
a trade receivable on the consolidated balance sheets and has a
carrying value which approximates fair value as of July 28,
2010 and April 28, 2010, due to the nature of the
short-term underlying financial assets.
In addition, the Company acted as servicer for approximately
$147 million and $126 million of trade receivables
which were sold to unrelated third parties without recourse as
of July 28, 2010 and April 28, 2010, respectively.
These trade receivables are short-term in nature. The proceeds
from these sales are also recognized on the statements of cash
flows as a component of operating activities.
The Company has not recorded any servicing assets or liabilities
as of July 28, 2010 or April 28, 2010 for the
arrangements discussed above because the fair value of these
servicing agreements as well as the fees earned were not
material to the financial statements.

Fair
Value Measurements
|
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize
the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect
unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in
active markets.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset
or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or
liability.
As of July 28, 2010 and April 28, 2010, the fair
values of the Companys assets and liabilities measured on
a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

(a)
|
Foreign currency derivative contracts are valued based on
observable market spot and forward rates, and are classified
within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Interest rate
swaps are valued based on observable market swap rates, and are
classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps are valued based on
observable market spot and swap rates, and are classified within
Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There have been no
transfers between Levels 1 and 2 in Fiscals 2011 and 2010.
|
As of July 28, 2010 and April 28, 2010, the aggregate
fair value of the Companys debt obligations, based on
market quotes, approximated the recorded value, with the
exception of the 7.125% notes issued as part of the dealer
remarketable securities exchange transaction. The
14
book value of these notes has been reduced as a result of the
cash payments made in connection with the exchange, which
occurred in Fiscal 2010.

Foreign
Currency Hedging:
The Company uses forward contracts and to a lesser extent,
option contracts to mitigate its foreign currency exchange rate
exposure due to forecasted purchases of raw materials and sales
of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign currency
denominated assets and liabilities. The Companys principal
foreign currency exposures include the Australian dollar,
British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro, and the New
Zealand dollar. Derivatives used to hedge forecasted
transactions and specific cash flows associated with foreign
currency denominated financial assets and liabilities that meet
the criteria for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow
hedges. Consequently, the effective portion of gains and losses
is deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive
loss and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item
affects earnings, in the same line item as the underlying hedged
item.
The Company has used certain foreign currency debt instruments
as net investment hedges of foreign operations. During the first
quarter of Fiscal 2010, losses of $15.6 million, net of
income taxes of $9.9 million, which represented effective
hedges of net investments, were reported as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive loss within unrealized
translation adjustment.
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company early
terminated certain foreign currency forward contracts, receiving
cash proceeds of $11.6 million, and will release the gain
in accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings when the
underlying transactions occur. The underlying transactions are
scheduled to occur at various points in time through 2014.
17
Interest
Rate Hedging:
The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage debt and interest
rate exposures. The Company is exposed to interest rate
volatility with regard to existing and future issuances of fixed
and floating rate debt. Primary exposures include
U.S. Treasury rates, London Interbank Offered Rates
(LIBOR), and commercial paper rates in the United States.
Derivatives used to hedge risk associated with changes in the
fair value of certain fixed-rate debt obligations are primarily
designated as fair value hedges. Consequently, changes in the
fair value of these derivatives, along with changes in the fair
value of the hedged debt obligations that are attributable to
the hedged risk, are recognized in current period earnings.
The Company had outstanding cross-currency interest rate swaps
with a total notional amount of $171.5 million and
$159.5 million as of July 28, 2010 and April 28,
2010, respectively, which were designated as cash flow hedges of
the future payments of loan principal and interest associated
with certain foreign denominated variable rate debt obligations.
These contracts are scheduled to mature in Fiscal 2013.
Deferred
Hedging Gains and Losses:
As of July 28, 2010, the Company is hedging forecasted
transactions for periods not exceeding 4 years. During the
next 12 months, the Company expects $1.8 million of
net deferred gains reported in accumulated other comprehensive
loss to be reclassified to earnings, assuming market rates
remain constant through contract maturities. Hedge
ineffectiveness related to cash flow hedges, which is reported
in current period earnings as other income/(expense), net, was
not significant for the first quarters ended July 28, 2010
and July 29, 2009. Amounts reclassified to earnings because
the hedged transaction was no longer expected to occur were not
significant for the first quarters ended July 28, 2010 and
July 29, 2009.
Other
Activities:
The Company enters into certain derivative contracts in
accordance with its risk management strategy that do not meet
the criteria for hedge accounting but which have the economic
impact of largely mitigating foreign currency or interest rate
exposures. The Company maintained foreign currency forward
contracts with a total notional amount of $429.6 million
and $284.5 million that did not meet the criteria for hedge
accounting as of July 28, 2010 and April 28, 2010,
respectively. These forward contracts are accounted for on a
full
mark-to-market
basis through current earnings, with gains and losses recorded
as a component of other income/(expense), net. Net unrealized
losses related to outstanding contracts totaled
$2.7 million and $2.6 million as of July 28, 2010
and April 28, 2010, respectively. These contracts are
scheduled to mature within one year.
During the second quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company terminated
its $175 million notional total rate of return swap that
was being used as an economic hedge to reduce a portion of the
interest cost related to the Companys remarketable
securities. Prior to termination, the swap was being accounted
for on a full
mark-to-market
basis through earnings, as a component of interest income.
During the first quarter ended July 29, 2009, the Company
recorded a benefit in interest income of $24.7 million,
representing changes in the fair value of the swap and interest
earned on the arrangement.
Concentration
of Credit Risk:
Counterparties to currency exchange and interest rate
derivatives consist of major international financial
institutions. The Company continually monitors its positions and
the credit ratings of the counterparties involved and, by
policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one party.
While the Company may be exposed to potential losses due to the
credit risk of non-performance by these counterparties, losses
are not anticipated. The Company closely monitors the credit
risk associated with its counterparties and customers and to
date has not experienced material losses.

Venezuela-
Foreign Currency and Inflation
|
Foreign
Currency
The local currency in Venezuela is the Venezuelan bolivar fuerte
(VEF). A currency control board exists in Venezuela
that is responsible for foreign exchange procedures, including
approval of requests for exchanges of VEF for U.S. dollars
at the official (government established) exchange rate. Our
business in Venezuela has historically been successful in
obtaining U.S. dollars at the official exchange rate for
imports of ingredients, packaging, manufacturing equipment, and
other necessary inputs, and for dividend remittances, albeit on
a delay. In May 2010, the government of Venezuela effectively
closed down the unregulated parallel market, which existed for
exchanging VEF for U.S. dollars through securities
transactions. Our Venezuelan subsidiary has no recent history of
entering into exchange transactions in this parallel market.
The Company uses the official exchange rate to translate the
financial statements of its Venezuelan subsidiary, since we
expect to obtain U.S. dollars at the official rate for
future dividend remittances. The official exchange rate in
Venezuela had been fixed at 2.15 VEF to 1 U.S. dollar
for several years, despite significant inflation. On
January 8, 2010, the Venezuelan government announced the
devaluation of its currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
The official exchange rate for imported goods classified as
essential, such as food and medicine, changed from 2.15 to 2.60,
while payments for other non-essential goods moved to an
exchange rate of 4.30. The majority, if not all, of our imported
products in Venezuela are expected to fall into the essential
classification and qualify for the 2.60 rate. However, our
Venezuelan subsidiarys financial statements are remeasured
using the 4.30 rate, as this is the rate expected to be
applicable to dividend repatriations. As of July 28, 2010,
the amount of VEF pending government approval to be used for
dividend repatriations is $8.5 million at the 4.30 rate and
requests for exchange have been pending government approval
since September 2008.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company recorded a
$61.7 million currency translation loss as a result of the
currency devaluation, which had been reflected as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive loss within unrealized
translation adjustment. The net asset position of our Venezuelan
subsidiary has also been reduced as a result of the devaluation
to approximately $88 million at July 28, 2010.
Highly
Inflationary Economy
An economy is considered highly inflationary under
U.S. GAAP if the cumulative inflation rate for a three-year
period meets or exceeds 100 percent. Based on the blended
National Consumer Price Index, the Venezuelan economy exceeded
the three-year cumulative inflation rate of 100 percent
during the third quarter of Fiscal 2010. As a result, the
financial statements of our Venezuelan subsidiary have been
consolidated and reported under highly inflationary accounting
rules beginning on January 28, 2010, the first day of our
Fiscal 2010 fourth quarter. Under highly inflationary
accounting, the financial statements of our Venezuelan
subsidiary are remeasured into the Companys reporting
currency (U.S. dollars) and exchange gains and losses from
the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities are
reflected in current earnings, rather than accumulated other
comprehensive loss on the balance sheet, until such time as the
economy is no longer considered highly inflationary.
The impact of applying highly inflationary accounting for
Venezuela on our consolidated financial statements is dependent
upon movements in the applicable exchange rates (at this time,
the official rate) between the local currency and the
U.S. dollar and the amount of monetary assets and
liabilities included in our subsidiarys balance sheet. At
July 28, 2010, the U.S. dollar value of monetary
assets, net of monetary liabilities, which would be subject to
an earnings impact from exchange rate movements for our
Venezuelan subsidiary under highly inflationary accounting was
$48.8 million.

Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
|
Executive
Overview
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company reported
diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.75,
compared to $0.68 in the prior year, an increase of 10.3%. The
Companys growth in EPS for the first quarter of Fiscal
2011 reflects 1.6% growth in sales, a 90 basis point
improvement in the gross profit margin and a 9.9% increase in
operating income. First quarter sales growth was driven by
increased volume of 2.5% and net pricing of 1.1%. The emerging
markets, which represented 18% of total Company sales in the
quarter, led the sales growth with combined volume and pricing
gains of 21.9%. Our top 15 brands also performed well, with
combined volume and pricing gains of 5.7% driven by the
Heinz®,
Smart
Ones®,
Complan®
and
ABC®
brands. Driving the sales growth was increased trade promotion
and consumer marketing investments. Foreign exchange translation
rates reduced sales by 2.1%. The gross profit margin increased
as a result of productivity improvements and higher net pricing,
partially offset by higher commodity input costs. Strong profit
growth and the continuing focus on cash generated
$272 million of cash flows from operations during the first
quarter, a $104 million increase from the prior year.
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, foreign currency continued
to unfavorably impact the Companys results, but to a much
lesser magnitude than what was experienced in Fiscal 2010.
Overall, currency movements had a $0.03 unfavorable impact on
the change in EPS from continuing operations versus prior year.
The impact reflects currency translation net of translation
hedges. While the Company anticipates that our full-year results
will be impacted by foreign currency movements, we remain
confident in our business fundamentals and plan to continue
executing our following strategies:
|
|
|
|
|
Grow the core portfolio;
|
|
|
|
Accelerate growth in emerging markets;
|
|
|
|
Strengthen and leverage global scale; and
|
|
|
|
Make talent an advantage.

Discontinued
Operations
During Fiscal 2010, the Company completed the sales of its
Appetizers And, Inc. and Kabobs frozen hors doeuvres
businesses which were previously reported within the
U.S. Foodservice segment and the sale of its private label
frozen desserts business in the U.K. In accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the operating results related to these businesses have
been included in discontinued operations in the companys
consolidated statements of income in the prior year. These
discontinued operations generated sales of $26.2 million
and a net loss of $2.2 million (net of $0.9 million of
a tax benefit) for the first quarter ended July 29, 2009.
20
THREE
MONTHS ENDED JULY 28, 2010 AND JULY 29, 2009
Results
of Continuing Operations
Sales for the three months ended July 28, 2010 increased
$39 million, or 1.6%, to $2.48 billion. Volume
increased 2.5%, as favorable volume in emerging markets as well
as improvements in the U.S. and U.K. retail businesses were
partially offset by declines in U.S. Foodservice and
Australia. The volume in the U.S. and U.K. retail
businesses benefited from increased trade promotions. Emerging
markets and our top 15 brands continued to be important growth
drivers, with combined volume and pricing gains of 21.9% and
5.7%, respectively. Net pricing increased sales by 1.1%, as
price increases in emerging markets, particularly Latin America,
and U.S. Foodservice were partially offset by increased
trade promotions in the U.S. and U.K. retail businesses.
Acquisitions increased sales by 0.1%. Foreign exchange
translation rates reduced sales by 2.1%.
Gross profit increased $36 million, or 4.1%, to
$908 million, and the gross profit margin increased to
36.6% from 35.7%, as higher volume, net pricing and productivity
improvements were partially offset by a $23 million
unfavorable impact from foreign exchange translation rates as
well as higher commodity costs. In addition, last years
gross profit included $7 million in charges for targeted
workforce reductions and non-cash asset write-offs related to a
factory closure.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
(SG&A) decreased $1 million, or 0.2% to
$502 million, and improved as a percentage of sales to
20.2% from 20.6%. These improvements reflect a $13 million
impact from foreign exchange translation rates, $9 million
related to prior year targeted workforce reductions, and lower
selling and distribution expenses (S&D)
reflecting productivity improvements. These improvements were
partially offset by higher marketing investments, particularly
in the emerging markets and Europe, and general and
administrative expenses (G&A) reflecting
increased compensation expense. Operating income increased
$37 million, or 9.9%, to $406 million, reflecting the
items above.
Net interest expense increased $8 million, to
$63 million, reflecting a $25 million decrease in
interest income and a $16 million decrease in interest
expense. The decrease in interest income is mainly due to a
$20 million
mark-to-market
gain in the prior year period on a total rate of return swap,
which was terminated in August 2009. Interest expense decreased
largely due to lower average interest rates. Other expenses,
net, increased $5 million, to $10 million, primarily
due to increased currency losses.
The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 25.3%
compared to 28.5% last year. The decrease in the effective tax
rate is primarily the result of increased benefits from foreign
tax planning and the benefit of a statutory tax rate reduction
in the United Kingdom, partially offset by higher repatriation
costs.
Income from continuing operations attributable to H. J. Heinz
Company was $240 million compared to $215 million in
the prior year, an increase of 12.0%. The increase was due to
higher operating income, $12 million in prior year
after-tax charges ($0.04 per share) for targeted workforce
reductions and non-cash asset write-offs, and a lower effective
tax rate, partially offset by a $12 million after-tax gain
in the prior year on a total rate of return swap. Diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.75 in the
current year compared to $0.68 in the prior year, up 10.3%. EPS
movements were unfavorably impacted by $0.03 from currency
fluctuations, after taking into account the net effect of
current and prior year currency translation contracts and
foreign currency movements on translation.
The impact of fluctuating translation exchange rates in Fiscal
2011 has had a relatively consistent impact on all components of
operating income on the consolidated statement of income.
21
OPERATING
RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
North
American Consumer Products
Sales of the North American Consumer Products segment increased
$35 million, or 4.8%, to $762 million. Volume
increased 5.3% mainly due to increases in
Heinz®
ketchup, Smart
Ones®
frozen entrees and
Classico®
pasta sauces which is primarily a result of increased trade
promotions under the Consumer Value Program launched in the
U.S. in the second half of the prior year. The Smart
Ones®
frozen entrees volume improvement was also a result of
innovation and new products. Net prices decreased 2.7%
reflecting these trade promotion increases. The acquisition of
Arthurs Fresh Company, a small chilled smoothies business
in Canada, in the third quarter of Fiscal 2010 increased sales
0.3%. Favorable Canadian exchange translation rates increased
sales 1.7%.
Gross profit increased $9 million, or 2.9%, to
$319 million, while the gross profit margin decreased to
41.9% from 42.6%. The increase in gross profit dollars was aided
by favorable foreign exchange translation rates and favorable
volume. Gross profit margin declined as productivity
improvements were more than offset by trade promotion
investments and increased commodity costs, particularly resin,
dairy and meats. Operating income increased $7 million, or
3.7%, to $191 million, reflecting the improvement in gross
profit, with SG&A being relatively flat.
Europe
Heinz Europe sales decreased $60 million, or 7.7%, to
$713 million. Unfavorable foreign exchange translation
rates decreased sales by 7.5%. Volume increased 0.2%, as
increases in ketchup across Europe, particularly in Russia and
France, along with frozen potatoes in the U.K. were offset by
category-related declines in Italian infant nutrition and soups
in the U.K. and Germany. Net pricing decreased 0.4%, driven by
increased promotional activity across the product portfolio in
the U.K. partially offset by increases in the Italian infant
nutrition business.
Gross profit decreased $15 million, or 5.3%, to
$269 million, and the gross profit margin increased to
37.7% from 36.8%. The $15 million decline in gross profit
is largely due to unfavorable foreign exchange translation rates
while the improvement in gross margin reflects productivity
improvements partially offset by higher commodity costs.
Operating income decreased $13 million, or 10.4%, to
$115 million, reflecting unfavorable foreign currency
translation, increased marketing investments and commodity costs
and higher G&A partially offset by productivity
improvements.
Asia/Pacific
Heinz Asia/Pacific sales increased $89 million, or 19.0%,
to $558 million. Favorable exchange translation rates
increased sales by 9.7%. Volume increased 6.9%, due to
significant growth in
Complan®
and Glucon
D®
nutritional beverages in India,
ABC®
products in Indonesia reflecting significant new product
activity and holiday timing, new infant feeding products in
China, and
Watties®
and
Heinz®
products in New Zealand aided by increased promotions. These
increases were partially offset by general softness in
Australia, which has been impacted by competitive activity and
reduced market demand associated with higher prices. Pricing
increased 2.4%, reflecting increases on
ABC®
syrup and sauces in Indonesia.
Gross profit increased $33 million, or 22.6%, to
$181 million, and the gross profit margin increased to
32.4% from 31.4%. These increases reflect higher volume and
pricing, favorable foreign exchange translation rates and
productivity improvements, partially offset by increased
commodity costs. Operating income increased by $18 million,
or 34.6%, to $72 million, primarily reflecting the increase
in gross profit, partially offset by increased SG&A,
largely related to foreign exchange translation rates and
increased marketing investments.
22
U.S.
Foodservice
Sales of the U.S. Foodservice segment decreased
$8 million, or 2.3%, to $329 million. Pricing
increased sales 2.8%, largely due to prior year price increases
on
Heinz®
ketchup and tomato products to help offset commodity cost
increases. Volume decreased by 5.1%, due to declines in sauces
as well as frozen desserts and soup. The volume reflects ongoing
weakness in restaurant foot traffic, rationalization of
less-profitable products and the timing of new product launches
and promotions in the prior year.
Gross profit increased $7 million, or 8.5%, to
$94 million, and the gross profit margin increased to 28.5%
from 25.6%, as pricing and productivity improvements more than
offset increased commodity costs and unfavorable volume.
Operating income increased $8 million, or 24.1%, to
$39 million, which is primarily due to gross profit
improvements.
Rest of
World
Sales for Rest of World decreased $17 million, or 12.6%, to
$119 million. Foreign exchange translation rates decreased
sales 36.9%, largely due to the devaluation of the Venezuelan
bolivar fuerte (VEF) late in the third quarter of
Fiscal 2010 (See the Venezuela- Foreign Currency and
Inflation section below for further explanation). Higher
pricing increased sales by 20.5%, largely due to price increases
in Latin America taken to mitigate raw material and labor
inflation. Volume increased 3.8% as increases in the Middle East
resulting from new products, market expansion and increased
marketing and promotions were partially offset by declines in
baby food in Latin America.
Gross profit decreased $6 million, or 12.9%, to
$44 million, due mainly to the impact of VEF devaluation
and increased commodity costs, partially offset by increased
pricing. Operating income decreased $2 million, or 12.1%,
to $16 million.
Liquidity
and Financial Position
Cash provided by operating activities was $272 million in
the current year and $169 million in the prior year. The
improvement in the first quarter of Fiscal 2011 versus Fiscal
2010 reflects higher earnings and favorable movements in
inventories, payables and income taxes partially offset by
higher payments in the current year on incentive compensation
accruals. The Company received $12 million in the first
quarter of Fiscal 2011 for the termination of foreign currency
hedge contracts (see Note 15, Derivative Financial
Instruments and Hedging Activities for additional
information). In addition, reduced pension contributions were
offset by declines in cash flows from receivables, largely due
to the cash received in the prior year in connection with
commencement of an accounts receivable securitization program
(see additional explanation below). The Companys cash
conversion cycle improved 5 days, to 44 days in the
first quarter of Fiscal 2011. Receivables accounted for
2 days of the improvement, which is largely a result of the
impact of the accounts receivable securitization program. There
was a 1 day improvement in inventories as a result of the
Companys continued efforts to reduce inventory levels.
Accounts payable also contributed 3 days to the improvement.
In the first quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company entered into a
three-year $175 million accounts receivable securitization
program. For the sale of receivables under the program, the
Company receives initial cash funding and a deferred purchase
price. The initial cash funding was $116.2 million and
$131.8 million during the first quarters ended
July 28, 2010 and July 29, 2009, respectively,
resulting in an increase of cash for sales under this program
for the first quarters ended July 28, 2010 and
July 29, 2009 of $32.0 million and
$131.8 million, respectively. Cash proceeds for the
deferred purchase price were $51.5 million for the first
quarter ended July 28, 2010. See Note 13,
Financing Arrangements for additional information.
Cash used for investing activities totaled $53 million
compared to $47 million last year. Capital expenditures
totaled $56 million (2.2% of sales) compared to
$49 million (2.0% of sales) in the prior year. The Company
still expects capital spending of approximately 3.0% of sales
for the year. Net
23
proceeds from divestitures provided cash of $1 million in
the current year compared to $2 million in the prior year.
Proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment were
less than $1 million in the current year and
$1 million in the prior year.
Cash used for financing activities totaled $198 million
compared to providing $33 million of cash last year.
Proceeds from long-term debt were $9 million in the current
year and $250 million in the prior year due to the issuance
of $250 million of 7.125% notes due 2039 by H. J.
Heinz Finance Company (HFC), a subsidiary of Heinz,
through a private placement in July 2009. These notes were
fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by the
Company. The proceeds from the notes were used for payment of
the cash component of the dealer remarketable securities
exchange transaction that occurred in the second quarter of
Fiscal 2010 as well as various expenses relating to this
exchange, and for general corporate purposes. Payments on
long-term debt were $8 million in the current year compared
to $27 million in the prior year. Net payments on
commercial paper and short-term debt were $91 million this
year compared to $67 million in the prior year. Cash
proceeds from option exercises provided $19 million of cash
in the current year compared to $2 million in the prior
year. Dividend payments totaled $144 million this year,
compared to $133 million for the same period last year,
reflecting an increase in the annualized dividend per common
share to $1.80.
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2011, the Company announced
that it signed an agreement to acquire Foodstar, a manufacturer
of soy sauces and fermented bean curd in China. The purchase
price consists of a cash payment at closing of approximately
$165 million and an earn-out potentially payable in 2014
based on the performance of the business. The completion of the
proposed acquisition is subject to regulatory approval in China
and other customary conditions.
At July 28, 2010, the Company had total debt of
$4.55 billion (including $208 million relating to the
hedge accounting adjustments) and cash and cash equivalents of
$495 million. Total debt balances have declined slightly
since prior year end due to payments on commercial paper.
The Company and HFC maintain $1.7 billion of credit
agreements, $1.2 billion of which expires in April 2012 and
$500 million which expires in April 2013. These credit
agreements support the Companys commercial paper
borrowings. As a result, the commercial paper borrowings are
classified as long-term debt based upon the Companys
intent and ability to refinance these borrowings on a long-term
basis. The credit agreements have identical covenants which
include a leverage ratio covenant in addition to other customary
covenants. The Company was in compliance with all of its
covenants as of July 28, 2010. In addition, the Company has
approximately $500 million of other credit facilities
available for use primarily by the Companys foreign
subsidiaries.
The Company will continue to monitor the credit markets to
determine the appropriate mix of long-term debt and short-term
debt going forward. The Company believes that its strong
operating cash flow, existing cash balances, together with the
credit facilities and other available capital market financing,
will be adequate to meet the Companys cash requirements
for operations, including capital spending, debt maturities,
acquisitions, share repurchases and dividends to shareholders.
While the Company is confident that its needs can be financed,
there can be no assurance that increased volatility and
disruption in the global capital and credit markets will not
impair its ability to access these markets on commercially
acceptable terms.
Venezuela-
Foreign Currency and Inflation
Foreign
Currency
The local currency in Venezuela is the VEF. A currency control
board exists in Venezuela that is responsible for foreign
exchange procedures, including approval of requests for
exchanges of VEF for U.S. dollars at the official
(government established) exchange rate. Our business in
Venezuela has historically been successful in obtaining
U.S. dollars at the official exchange rate for imports of
ingredients, packaging, manufacturing equipment, and other
necessary inputs, and for dividend remittances, albeit on a
delay. In May 2010, the government of Venezuela effectively
closed down the
24
unregulated parallel market, which existed for exchanging VEF
for U.S. dollars through securities transactions. Our
Venezuelan subsidiary has no recent history of entering into
exchange transactions in this parallel market.
The Company uses the official exchange rate to translate the
financial statements of its Venezuelan subsidiary, since we
expect to obtain U.S. dollars at the official rate for
future dividend remittances. The official exchange rate in
Venezuela had been fixed at 2.15 VEF to 1 U.S. dollar for
several years, despite significant inflation. On January 8,
2010, the Venezuelan government announced the devaluation of its
currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The official exchange
rate for imported goods classified as essential, such as food
and medicine, changed from 2.15 to 2.60, while payments for
other non-essential goods moved to an exchange rate of 4.30. The
majority, if not all, of our imported products in Venezuela are
expected to fall into the essential classification and qualify
for the 2.60 rate. However, our Venezuelan subsidiarys
financial statements are remeasured using the 4.30 rate, as this
is the rate expected to be applicable to dividend repatriations.
As of July 28, 2010, the amount of VEF pending government
approval to be used for dividend repatriations is
$8 million at the 4.30 rate and requests for exchange
have been pending government approval since September 2008.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company recorded a
$62 million currency translation loss as a result of the
currency devaluation, which had been reflected as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive loss within unrealized
translation adjustment. The net asset position of our Venezuelan
subsidiary has also been reduced as a result of the devaluation
to approximately $88 million at July 28, 2010. While
our future operating results in Venezuela will be negatively
impacted by the currency devaluation, we plan to take actions to
help mitigate these effects. Accordingly, we do not expect the
devaluation to have a material impact on our operating results
going forward.
Highly
Inflationary Economy
An economy is considered highly inflationary under
U.S. GAAP if the cumulative inflation rate for a three-year
period meets or exceeds 100 percent. Based on the blended
National Consumer Price Index, the Venezuelan economy exceeded
the three-year cumulative inflation rate of 100 percent
during the third quarter of Fiscal 2010. As a result, the
financial statements of our Venezuelan subsidiary have been
consolidated and reported under highly inflationary accounting
rules beginning on January 28, 2010, the first day of our
Fiscal 2010 fourth quarter. Under highly inflationary
accounting, the financial statements of our Venezuelan
subsidiary are remeasured into the Companys reporting
currency (U.S. dollars) and exchange gains and losses from
the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities are
reflected in current earnings, rather than accumulated other
comprehensive loss on the balance sheet, until such time as the
economy is no longer considered highly inflationary.
The impact of applying highly inflationary accounting for
Venezuela on our consolidated financial statements is dependent
upon movements in the applicable exchange rates (at this time,
the official rate) between the local currency and the
U.S. dollar and the amount of monetary assets and
liabilities included in our subsidiarys balance sheet. At
July 28, 2010, the U.S. dollar value of monetary
assets, net of monetary liabilities, which would be subject to
an earnings impact from exchange rate movements for our
Venezuelan subsidiary under highly inflationary accounting was
$49 million.
Contractual
Obligations
The Company is obligated to make future payments under various
contracts such as debt agreements, lease agreements and
unconditional purchase obligations. In addition, the Company has
purchase obligations for materials, supplies, services, and
property, plant and equipment as part of the ordinary conduct of
business. A few of these obligations are long-term and are based
on minimum purchase requirements. Certain purchase obligations
contain variable pricing components, and, as a result, actual
cash payments are expected to fluctuate based on changes in
these variable components. Due to the proprietary nature of some
of the Companys materials and processes, certain supply
25
contracts contain penalty provisions for early terminations. The
Company does not believe that a material amount of penalties is
reasonably likely to be incurred under these contracts based
upon historical experience and current expectations. There have
been no material changes to contractual obligations during the
three months ended July 28, 2010. For additional
information, refer to page 26 of the Companys Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2010.
As of the end of the first quarter, the total amount of gross
unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions, including
an accrual of related interest and penalties along with
positions only impacting the timing of tax benefits, was
approximately $66 million. The timing of payments will
depend on the progress of examinations with tax authorities. The
Company does not expect a significant tax payment related to
these obligations within the next year. The Company is unable to
make a reasonably reliable estimate as to when cash settlements
with taxing authorities may occur.
Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued an amendment to the accounting and
disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets. This
amendment removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose
entity and requires that a transferor recognize and initially
measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities
incurred as a result of a transfer of financial assets accounted
for as a sale. This amendment also requires additional
disclosures about any transfers of financial assets and a
transferors continuing involvement with transferred
financial assets. The Company adopted this amendment on
April 29, 2010, the first day of Fiscal 2011. This adoption
did not have a material impact on the Companys financial
statements. Refer to Note 13, Financing
Arrangements for additional information.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and
disclosure requirements for variable interest entities. This
amendment changes how a reporting entity determines when an
entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled
through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The
determination of whether a reporting entity is required to
consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the
purpose and design of the other entity and the reporting
entitys ability to direct the activities of the other
entity that most significantly impact its economic performance.
The amendment also requires additional disclosures about a
reporting entitys involvement with variable interest
entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to
that involvement. A reporting entity will be required to
disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity
affects the reporting entitys financial statements. The
Company adopted this amendment on April 29, 2010, the first
day of Fiscal 2011. This adoption did not have a material impact
on the Companys financial statements.

CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Statements about future growth, profitability, costs,
expectations, plans, or objectives included in this report,
including in managements discussion and analysis, and the
financial statements and footnotes, are forward-looking
