48 The <strong>Procter</strong> & <strong>Gamble</strong> Company Management’s Discussion and Analysis<br />
rate movements on our investments in foreign operations. These<br />
currency interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the Company’s<br />
foreign net investments.<br />
Based on our overall interest rate exposure as of and during the year<br />
ended June 30, <strong>2009</strong>, including derivative and other instruments<br />
sensitive to interest rates, we believe a near-term change in interest<br />
rates, at a 95% confidence level based on historical interest rate<br />
movements, would not materially affect our financial statements.<br />
Currency Rate Exposure on Financial Instruments. Because we<br />
manufacture and sell products in a number of countries throughout<br />
the world, we are exposed to the impact on revenue and expenses of<br />
movements in currency exchange rates. The primary purpose of our<br />
currency hedging activities is to reduce the risk that our financial<br />
position will be adversely affected by short-term changes in exchange<br />
rates. Corporate policy prescribes the range of allowable hedging<br />
activity. We primarily use forward contracts with maturities of less than<br />
18 months. In addition, we enter into certain currency swaps with<br />
maturities of up to five years to hedge our exposure to exchange rate<br />
movements on inter<strong>com</strong>pany financing transactions.<br />
Based on our overall currency rate exposure as of and during the year<br />
ended June 30, <strong>2009</strong>, we believe, at a 95% confidence level based<br />
on historical currency rate movements, the impact of a near-term<br />
change in currency rates on derivative and other instruments would<br />
not materially affect our financial statements.<br />
Commodity Price Exposure on Financial Instruments. We use raw<br />
materials that are subject to price volatility caused by weather, supply<br />
conditions, political and economic variables and other unpredictable<br />
factors. In addition to fixed price contracts, we use futures, options<br />
and swap contracts to manage the volatility related to the above<br />
exposures.<br />
Based on our overall <strong>com</strong>modity price exposure as of and during the<br />
year ended June 30, <strong>2009</strong>, we believe, at a 95% confidence level<br />
based on historical <strong>com</strong>modity price movements, the impact of a<br />
near-term change in <strong>com</strong>modity prices on derivative and other<br />
instruments would not materially affect our financial statements.<br />
Measures Not Defined By U.S. GAAP<br />
Our discussion of financial results includes several “non-GAAP”<br />
financial measures. We believe these measures provide our investors<br />
with additional information about our underlying results and trends, as<br />
well as insight to some of the metrics used to evaluate management.<br />
When used in MD&A, we have provided the <strong>com</strong>parable GAAP<br />
measure in the discussion. These measures include:<br />
Organic Sales Growth. Organic sales growth measures sales growth<br />
excluding the impacts of foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures<br />
from year-over-year <strong>com</strong>parisons. We believe this provides<br />
investors with a more <strong>com</strong>plete understanding of underlying results<br />
and trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis.<br />
The following tables provide a numerical reconciliation of organic<br />
sales growth to reported net sales growth:<br />

Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less<br />
capital spending. We view free cash flow as an important measure<br />
because it is one factor in determining the amount of cash available<br />
for dividends and discretionary investment. Free cash flow is also one<br />
of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a factor<br />
in determining their at-risk <strong>com</strong>pensation.<br />
Free Cash Flow Productivity. Free cash flow productivity is defined as<br />
the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings. Our target is to generate free<br />
cash flow at or above 90% of net earnings. Free cash flow productivity<br />
is one of the measures used to evaluate senior management and is a<br />
factor in determining their at-risk <strong>com</strong>pensation.<br />
