Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending. We view free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor in determining the amount of cash available for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash flow is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor in determining their at-risk compensation.

Free Cash Flow Productivity. Free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings. The company's long-term target is to generate free cash at or above 90 percent of net earnings. Free cash flow productivity is also one of the measures used to evaluate senior management. The reconciliation of free cash flow and free cash flow productivity is provided below ($ millions):

Operating Capital Free Cash Net Free Cash Flow

Cash Flow Spending Flow Earnings Productivity

Apr - Jun '08 $4,096 $(1,194) $2,902 $3,016 96%

Fiscal 2008 $15,814 $(3,046) $12,768 $12,075 106%

Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share. Adjusted net earnings per share exclude the net tax benefits from a number of significant adjustments to tax reserves during fiscal year 2008. We believe this provides investors with a more consistent and comparable reference point for assessing the underlying earnings growth since we do not view items of this magnitude as part of our sustainable results.
