Statement of Cash Flows Chapter 12 Statement of Cash Flows PowerPoint Author: Brandy Mackintosh, CA Chapter 12: Statement of Cash Flows
Learning Objective 12-1 Identify cash flows arising from operating, investing, and financing activities. Learning objective number 12-1 is to identify cash flows arising from operating, investing, and financing activities.
Business Activities and Cash Flows The Statement of Cash Flows focuses attention on: Operating Cash received and paid for day-to-day activities with customers, suppliers, and employees. The Statement of Cash Flows shows each major type of business activity that caused a company’s cash to increase or decrease during the accounting period. The major types of business activities are: Operating – The Statement of Cash Flows shows the cash received and paid for day-to-day activities with customers, suppliers, and employees. Investing – The Statement of Cash Flows shows cash paid and received from buying and selling long-term assets. Financing – The Statement of Cash Flows shows cash received and paid for exchanges with lenders and stockholders. Investing Cash paid and received from buying and selling long-term assets. Financing Cash received and paid for exchanges with lenders and stockholders.
Business Activities and Cash Flows Checking and Savings Accounts Currency Cash Equivalents Highly liquid short-term investments within three months of maturity. Part I Cash includes currency on hand. Part II Cash also includes checking accounts, savings accounts, and certain money market accounts. Part III The third component of cash is called cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are easily converted into cash and that have very little risk of loss. An example of a cash equivalent would be a short-term Treasury Bill that is government issued, is within three months of its maturity date, and has very little risk associated with it.

Notice the three basic sections on the Statement of Cash Flows: operating activities investing activities financing activities The statement also includes a reconciliation between beginning and ending Cash and Cash Equivalents. We will be examining the sections of this statement in detail for the remainder of the chapter.
Operating Activities Cash inflows and outflows that directly relate to revenues and expenses reported on the Income Statement. Part I The cash flows from operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows shows us the inflows and outflows of cash that directly relate to income from normal operations reported on the Income Statement. Part II The Operating Activities Section includes cash inflows and cash outflows that result from the operations of the business and some incidental business transactions. Operating cash inflows include cash collected from customers, receiving dividends, and receiving interest. Operating cash outflows include purchasing services and goods for resale, paying salaries and wages, paying income taxes, paying interest.
Under Armour’s 2012 Investing Activities Part I The Investing Activities Section includes cash inflows from the sale or disposal of equipment, and the sale or maturity of investments in securities and cash outflows for the purchase of equipment and the purchase of investments in securities. The difference between these cash inflows and outflows is reported on the statement of cash flows as a subtotal, Net Cash Provided by (Used for) Investing Activities. Part II Under Armour had two investing activities in 2012 that required cash: the purchase of equipment for $52 million and the purchase of intangible assets for $2 million.
Under Armour’s 2012 Financing Activities Part I The financing activities section includes cash inflows from borrowing from lenders through formal debt contracts and issuing stock to owners and cash outflows for repaying principal to lenders, repurchasing stock from owners, and paying cash dividends to owners. The difference between these cash inflows and outflows is reported on the Statement of Cash Flows as a subtotal, net cash provided by (used for) financing activities. Part II Under Armour had the following financing activities in 2012: $50 million in new long-term loans were issued. Long-term Debt of $61 million was paid. Shares of Stock were issued for $53 million. Although exceptions exist, a general rule is that operating cash flows cause changes in Current Assets and Current Liabilities, investing cash flows affect Noncurrent Assets, and financing cash flows affect Noncurrent Liabilities or Stockholders’ Equity accounts.
Relationships Between Classified Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flow (SCF) Categories Part I Let’s examine the relationship between the Classified Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flow (SCF) categories. Generally, operating cash flows cause changes in current assets and current liabilities. Part II Investing cash flows affect noncurrent assets. Part III Financing cash flows affect noncurrent liabilities or stockholders’ equity accounts.
Relationship to Other Financial Statements Information needed to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows: Comparative Balance Sheets. Income Statement. Additional details concerning selected accounts. Additional transactions that do not involve cash. We prepare a Statement of Cash flows by analyzing the Income Statement and changes in Balance Sheet accounts. So, we need the following information: Comparative Balance Sheets for the beginning and end of the period covered by the Statement of Cash Flows. An Income Statement for the period between the comparative Balance Sheet dates. Additional details concerning selected accounts that increase and decrease as a result of investing and/or financing activities. Additional transactions that do not involve cash.
Relationship to Other Financial Statements Recall that the basic Balance Sheet equation is: We can recast the equation as follows: The following equation is true: Part I The basic Balance Sheet equation is: Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity Part II We can recast the basic Balance Sheet by dividing Assets into Cash plus Noncash Assets. Part III We can isolate cash on one side of the equation by subtracting Noncash Assets from both sides. Part IV Using this basic Balance Sheet equation, we are able to rearrange the terms to isolate cash on one side of the equation. As you can see from this relationship, our approach to preparing a Statement of Cash Flows will involve an analysis of the changes in all noncash Balance Sheet accounts. From this basic Balance Sheet equation, we develop our model to solve for the change in cash:
Direct and Indirect Reporting of Operating Cash Flows Two alternative methods may be used when presenting the operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows: The direct method reports the total cash inflow or outflow from each main type of transaction (that is, transactions with customers, suppliers, employees, etc.). The difference between these cash inflows and outflows equals the net cash provided by (used for) operating activities. The indirect method starts with Net Income from the Income Statement and adjusts it by eliminating the effects of items that do not involve Cash (for example, Depreciation) and including items that do have cash effects. Adjusting Net Income for these items yields the amount of net cash provided by (used for) operating activities. The point to remember about these two methods is that they are simply different ways to arrive at the same number. Net cash flows provided by (used for) operating activities is always the same under the direct and indirect methods. Also, the choice between the two methods affects only the operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows, not the investing and financing sections. We will concentrate on the indirect method for now, and we will look at the direct method in a little more detail later in the chapter. Same result We will concentrate on the indirect method for now, and we will look at the direct method again later in the chapter.
Learning Objective 12-2 Report cash flows from operating activities, using the indirect method. Learning objective number 12-2 is to report cash flows from operating activities, using the indirect method.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities - Indirect Method The indirect method adjusts Net Income by analyzing noncash items. Changes in non-cash Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Cash Flows from Operating Activities - Indirect Method Net Income + Noncash expenses such as Depreciation and Amortization. + Losses and - Gains Part I We will begin by focusing on the indirect method, which is used by almost all companies. The indirect method starts with the accrual based Net Income and makes certain adjustments to arrive at cash flows from operating activities. Part II Adjustments to the accrual based Net Income include adding back any noncash expenses that are included to arrive at Net Income, such as Depreciation and Amortization. Adding these back on the Statement of Cash Flows basically cancels out the fact that they were originally subtracted to arrive at Net Income. Since these expenses do not represent cash outlays, we would not want them included in the Statement of Cash Flows. Part III We also have to make appropriate adjustments to reflect the change from accrual based revenues and expenses reported on the Income Statement to cash based revenues and expenses. This is accomplished by analyzing the changes in noncash Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Part IV Other items on the Income Statement to consider are gains and losses. Gains and losses result from the sale of long-term assets. Gains are added on the Income Statement and losses are subtracted on the Income Statement to arrive at Net Income. Since gains and losses do not represent operating cash flows, we cancel out gains by subtracting them from Net Income and cancel out losses by adding them to Net Income in the operating section. The actual cash flow from the sale of the asset will be properly reported, in most cases, in the investing section.
Relationships to the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement Change in account balances during the year This chart explains how to treat a change in a noncash Current Asset or Current Liability in the operating section of the Statement of Cash Flows. Maybe a couple of examples will help you see how this table works. Let’s start with Current Assets. If Accounts Receivable, a current asset, decreased during the year, this decrease would be added to Net Income. A decrease in Accounts Receivable means that customer cash payments on account exceeded customer charges on account during the period. This excess of cash receipts over sales on account is used to adjust the accrual based revenues reported on the Income Statement to the amount of total cash received from customers during the period. Similarly, if Accounts Receivable increased during the year, this increase would be subtracted from Net Income. An increase in Accounts Receivable means that customer charges on account exceeded customer cash payments on account during the period. This excess of sales on account over cash receipts is used to adjust the accrual based revenues reported on the Income Statement to the amount of total cash received from customers during the period. Now, let’s look at how to treat changes in current liabilities. If Salaries Payable, a current liability, decreased during the year, this decrease would be subtracted from Net Income. A decrease in Salaries Payable means that the company’s cash payments for salaries were more than its Salaries Expense during the period. This excess of cash payments over Salaries Expense is used to adjust the accrual based expense reported on the Income Statement to the amount of total cash paid for salaries during the period. Similarly, if Salaries Payable increased during the year, this increase would be added to Net Income. An increase in Salaries Payable means the company recognized more salaries expense than its cash payments to employees during the period. This excess of Salaries Expense over cash payments is used to adjust the accrual based expense reported on the Income Statement to the amount of total cash paid for salaries during the period. Use this table when adjusting Net Income to operating cash flows using the indirect method.
Statement of Cash Flows Indirect Method Example Use the following financial statements for Under Armour, Inc. and prepare the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2012. Let’s look at an example of how to prepare the Statement of Cash Flows using the indirect method. The next few slides present the necessary financial statements for Under Armour, Inc.
Statement of Cash Flows Indirect Method Example Here is the asset portion of a comparative Balance Sheet for Under Armour, Inc., for 2012 and 2011. Notice that the change in each account for the year is shown.
Statement of Cash Flows Indirect Method Example Here are the liability and equity sections of a comparative balance sheet for Under Armour, Inc. Notice again that the change in each account for the year is shown.
Statement of Cash Flows Indirect Method Example The Statement of Cash Flows using the indirect method will begin with Under Armor, Inc.’s Net Income from the Income Statement. Here is Under Armour, Inc.’s Income Statement for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Indirect Reporting of Operating Cash Flows When using the indirect method, the schedule of operating activities has the format shown on the slide. Remember that because we start with accrual basis Net Income we must adjust Net Income for items that are included in Net Income but do not involve cash and for items that are not included in Net Income but do involve cash. For example, depreciation does not involve cash, but it was subtracted on the Income Statement to arrive at Net Income. By adding depreciation back, we eliminate the effect of having deducted it in the Income Statement. Based on our previous discussion, you should also be able to make similar statements as they pertain to the additions and subtractions of the changes in current assets and current liabilities. When using the indirect method, start with accrual basis Net Income and adjust it for: items that are included in Net Income but do not involve cash, and items that are not included in Net Income but do involve cash.
Next, adjust for the non-cash items included in Net Income. For Under Armour, the only non-cash adjustment is for Depreciation Expense. Part I First, we start with the accrual-basis Net Income. Part II Then, we adjust Net Income for non-cash expenses and gains and losses. Depreciation is the only non-cash adjustment to accrual income. Will depreciation be added or subtracted from Net Income?
Accumulated Depreciation increased by $30, from $115 in the 2011 Balance Sheet to $145 in the 2012 Balance sheet. The same $30 is shown as Depreciation Expense in the 2012 Income Statement. To complete the Cash Flows from Operating Activities section, we must examine comparative Balance Sheets to determine the changes in current assets and current liabilities from the beginning of the period to the end of the period. Part I Depreciation is a non-cash expense that reduced income, so it is added to Net Income. Net Income and Depreciation are always the first two lines to appear in a Statement of Cash Flows prepared using the indirect method. They begin the process of converting Net Income to operating cash flows. Part II Accumulated Depreciation increased by $30, from $115 in the 2011 Balance Sheet to $145 in the 2012 Balance Sheet. The same $30 is shown as Depreciation in the 2012 Income Statement. Next, we need to adjust Net Income for the changes in the noncash current assets and current liabilities.
These five items were shown earlier in the current portions of Under Armour’s comparative Balance Sheets for 2011 and 2012 The changes in the non-cash current asset and current liability accounts are added or subtracted as appropriate. Refer back to Under Armour’s comparative Balance Sheets for 2011 and 2012 to confirm the changes in noncash current assets and current liabilities. Use the table shown and determine whether to add or subtract the change in noncash current assets and current liabilities. Since Accounts Receivable, a current asset, increased, the change needs to be subtracted from Net Income. Since Inventory, a current asset, decreased, the change needs to be added to Net Income. Use the table to confirm the remaining additions and subtractions to Net Income that result in the $179,000,000 of cash provided by operations.
Report cash flows from investing activities. Learning Objective 12-3 Report cash flows from investing activities. Learning objective number 12-3 is to report cash flows from investing activities.
Reporting Cash Flows from Investing Activities We will need this additional data to prepare the investing portion of the statement. No disposals or impairments of Equipment or Intangibles occurred Equipment costing $52 million and Intangibles costing $2 million were purchased with Cash. The investing activities section includes cash inflows from the sale or disposal of long-term assets and cash outflows for the purchase of long-term assets. Under Armour had two investing activities that required cash: the purchase of equipment for $52 million and the purchase of intangible assets for $2 million.
Reporting Cash Flows from Investing Activities Under Armour, Inc., has two investing activities on the Statement of Cash Flows that required the use of Cash: Purchase of Equipment, and Purchase of Intangibles and Other Assets. Under Armour, Inc., has two investing activities on the Statement of Cash Flows that required the use of cash: Purchase of Equipment, and Purchase of Intangibles and Other Assets. The additional data provided indicates that Under Armour purchased Equipment for $52 million Cash. This purchase is a cash outflow, which we subtract in the schedule of investing activities. The analysis of Under Armour ’s detailed records indicate that the company did not have any reductions in its Intangible assets as a result of disposals, impairments, or amortization during the year. However, Under Armour did purchase Intangible assets for $2 million Cash, as noted in the additional data. This cash outflow is subtracted in the schedule of investing activities.
Report cash flows from financing activities. Learning Objective 12-4 Report cash flows from financing activities. Learning objective number 12-4 is to report cash flows from financing activities.
Reporting Cash Flows from Financing Activities We will need this additional data to prepare the financing portion of the statement. No Dividends were declared or paid. Long-term Debt of $61 million was paid. $50 million in new long-term loans were issued. Shares of Stock were issued for $53 million. The financing activities section includes cash inflows from borrowing from lenders through formal debt contracts and issuing stock to owners and cash outflows for repaying principal to lenders, repurchasing stock from owners, and paying cash dividends to owners. Under Armour had the following financing activities: Long-term debt of $61 million was paid. $50 million in new long-term loans were issued. Shares of stock were issued for $53 million.
Reporting Cash Flows from Financing Activities Under Armour, Inc., has three financing activities on the Statement of Cash Flows. The first financing activity is the increase in Long-term Debt caused by borrowing $50,000,000. The borrowed money is a cash inflow. Long-term Debt increased because of $50 in new loans during the year. The long-term Debt increase is a Cash inflow.
Reporting Cash Flows from Financing Activities The second financing activity is the payments on Long-term Debt resulting in a cash outflow of $61,000,000. The net effect of these two Long-term Debt transactions decreased Long-term Debt by $11,000,000 from $99,000,000 on the 2011 Balance Sheet to $88,000,000 on the 2012 Balance Sheet. Payments on Long-term Debt resulted in a Cash outflow of $61. The net effect of these two Long-term Debt transactions decreased Long-term Debt by $11, from $99 on the 2011 Balance Sheet to $88 on the 2012 Balance Sheet.
Reporting Cash Flows from Financing Activities The third financing activity is the issuance of Common Stock resulting in a cash inflow of $53,000,000. Common Stock increased from $268,000,000 in the 2011 Balance Sheet to $321,000,000 in the 2012 Balance Sheet. The third financing activity is the issuance of Common Stock resulting in a Cash inflow of $53. Common Stock increased from $268 in the 2011 Balance Sheet to $321 in the 2012 Balance Sheet.
Reporting Cash Flows Now we can reconcile the change in Cash to the ending $342 Cash balance that appears on the Balance Sheet. The three financing activities provided a total of $42,000,000. Total cash flow from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities is an increase of $167,000,000. When this amount is added to the $175,000,000 Cash balance at the beginning of the year, the total is equal to the $342,000,000 Cash balance at the end of the year.
Noncash Investing and Financing Activities Required Supplemental Information: Cash paid for taxes and interest. Significant non-cash investing and financing activities. In addition to the three major sections of the Statement of Cash Flows, operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities, we must also disclose the amount of cash paid for taxes and interest and significant non-cash investing and financing activities. The exchange of shares of stock in the company for land would be an example a significant noncash investing and financing activity that must be disclosed. Under Armour, Inc., had two supplemental disclosures cash paid for interest and cash paid for income tax.
Learning Objective 12-5 Interpret cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities. Learning objective number 12-5 is to interpret cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.
Evaluating Operating Cash Flows Operating cash flows must be positive over the long-run for a company to be successful. An upward trend in operating cash flows over time indicates growth and efficient operations. Look at the relationship between operating cash flows and Net Income. Part I When evaluating cash flows from operations, the most important consideration is that cash flows must be positive over the long-run for a company to be successful. It is difficult to survive with continual cash outflows from operations over long periods of time. Part II Given that cash flows from operations are positive, an upward trend in the amount of these cash flows indicates growth and efficient operations. Part III We should also look at the relationship between operating cash flows and Net Income. All other things being equal, when Net Income and operating cash flows are similar, there is a high likelihood that revenues are realized in cash and that expenses are associated with cash outflows. Any major deviations should be investigated. In some cases, a deviation may be nothing to worry about, but in others, it could be the first sign of big problems to come. Four potential causes of deviations to consider include: Seasonality The corporate life cycle (growth in sales) Changes in revenue and expense recognition Changes in working capital management
Evaluating Investing Cash Flows Healthy companies tend to show negative cash flows in the investing activities section. Be cautious over a positive total cash flow in the investing activities section Part I Although it might seem counterintuitive at first, healthy companies tend to show negative cash flows in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows. A negative total for this section means the company is spending more to acquire new long-term assets than it is taking in from selling its existing long-term assets. That’s normal for any healthy, growing company. Part II If you see a positive total cash flow in the investing activities section, you should be concerned because it could mean the company is selling off its long-term assets just to generate cash inflows. If a company sells off too many long term assets, it may not have a sufficient base to continue running its business effectively, which would likely lead to further decline in the future.
Evaluating Financing Cash Flows It’s not possible to evaluate the company’s financing cash flows by simply determining whether they are positive or negative on an overall basis. Instead, consider detailed line items with this section to assess the company’s overall financing strategy. Part I Unlike the operating and investing activities sections, where a healthy company typically shows positive and negative cash flows, respectively, the financing activities section does not have an obvious expected direction for cash flows. For example, a healthy company that is growing rapidly could need financing cash inflows to fund its expansion. In this case, the company could take out new loans or issue new shares, both of which would result in positive net cash flows from financing activities. Alternatively, a healthy company could use its cash resources to repay existing loans, pay dividends, or repurchase shares, all of which would result in negative net cash flows from financing activities. Thus, it’s not possible to evaluate the company’s financing cash flows by simply determining whether they are positive or negative on an overall basis. Part II Rather, you will need to consider detailed line items within this section to assess the company’s overall financing strategy (is the company moving toward greater reliance on risky debt financing?).
Overall Patterns of Cash Flows Just as most products go through a series of developmental phases, most companies have lifecycles as well. The corporate lifecycle phases include an introductory phase when the company is being established, a growth phase when the company’s presence expands, a maturity phase when the company stabilizes, and finally a decline phase when the company loses its way. During each of these phases, a company is likely to show different patterns of net cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities as shown in this diagram.
Learning Objective 12-6 Report and interpret cash flows from operating activities using the direct method. Learning objective number 12-6 is to report and interpret cash flows from operating activities using the direct method.
Reporting Operating Cash Flows with the Direct Method Provides more detailed information Identifies cash inflows and outflows relationships Earlier in this chapter, we discussed the indirect method of presenting a company’s Statement of Cash Flows. This method computes operating cash flows indirectly, by adding and subtracting items from Net Income. Because these items, by themselves, don’t mean a lot, analyses of operating cash flows are limited to using just the overall Net Cash Provided by (Used for) Operating Activities. In comparison, the direct method of presentation provides more detailed information on each input into overall operating cash flows, which allows analysts to conduct more detailed analyses. The direct method also provides financial statement users with more information to identify potential relationships between cash inflows and outflows. An increase in some activities, such as sales, generally leads to an increase in cash inflows from customers and cash outflows to inventory suppliers. However, an increase in sales activity only loosely affects other cash outflows, such as interest paid on loans. Knowing the detailed components of operating cash flows allows analysts to more reliably predict a company’s future cash flows. The direct method presents a summary of all operating transactions that result in either a debit or a credit to Cash. It is prepared by adjusting each revenue and expense on the Income Statement from the accrual basis to the cash basis. Prepared by adjusting accrual basis to cash basis Investing and financing sections for the two methods are identical
Direct Method Operating Activities Here is the operating activities section of the Statement of Cash Flows prepared using the direct method. The $179,000,000 of cash flow provided by operations is the same amount we saw with the indirect method. You might want return to the indirect method and compare the two statements. Remember that a very small percentage of companies use the direct method. Now, let’s see how we arrive at the individual cash flows by adjusting each revenue and expense on the Income Statement from the accrual basis to the cash basis. When we prepared the operating section using the indirect method, we also arrived at net cash inflow of $179. Let’s see how we arrive at these cash flows.
Direct Method Operating Activities With the direct method, we convert each revenue and expense on the Income Statement to a cash flow. For example, since Accounts Receivable increased, cash collections from customers were less than the amount of Sales Revenue recorded in Accounts Receivable. So, we subtract the increase in receivables from net sales to obtain the cash inflow. We convert the expense accounts in the same manner. For example, since Prepaid Expenses increased, cash payments were greater than expenses recognized. And, since Accrued Liabilities increased, cash payments were less then the expenses recognized. We add the increase in prepaid expenses to Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and subtract the increase in Accrued Liabilities from Selling, General and Administrative Expenses to obtain cash outflow for expenses. With the direct method, we convert each revenue and expense on the Income Statement to a cash flow.
Supplement 12A Reporting Disposals of Property, Plant, and Equipment (Indirect Method) Supplement 12A: Reporting Disposals of Property, Plant, and Equipment (Indirect Method)
Report cash flows from PPE disposals using the indirect method. Learning Objective 12-S1 Report cash flows from PPE disposals using the indirect method. Learning objective number 12-S1 is to report cash flows from PPE disposals using the indirect method.
Reporting Sales of Property, Plant, and Equipment (PPE) (Indirect) Depreciation Expense Loss on Sale of PPE A loss on the sale of PPE is added back to Net Income just as Depreciation Expense is added back. Adding these noncash items restores Net Income to what it would have been had Depreciation and the loss not been subtracted at all. Part I Amounts that were subtracted in determining Net Income but did not reduce cash from operating activities are added back to Net Income to reverse the effect of their having been subtracted. Examples of these amounts are Depreciation Expense and Loss on Sale of Equipment. Part II Similarly, amounts that were added in determining Net Income but did not increase cash from operating activities are subtracted from Net Income to reverse the effect of their having been added. An example of this is the Gain on Sale of Land. Just the opposite is true for a gain on the sale of PPE. Subtracting the gain reverses the effect of the gain having been added to Net Income. Gain on Sale of PPE
T-Account (Indirect Method) Supplement 12B T-Account (Indirect Method) Supplement 12B: T-Account Approach (Indirect Method)
Learning Objective 12-S2 Use the T-account approach for preparing an indirect method statement of cash flows. Learning objective number 12-S2 is to use the T-account approach for preparing an indirect method statement of cash flows.
T-account Approach (Indirect Method) Instead of creating schedules for each section of the Statement of Cash Flows, some prefer to prepare a single large T-account to represent the changes that have taken place in Cash subdivided into the three sections of the Statement of Cash Flows. Instead of creating schedules for each section of the cash flow statement, some prefer to prepare a single large T-account to represent the changes that have taken place in cash subdivided into the three sections of the cash flow statement. Let’s see how to use a T-account to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows on the next slide. Let’s see how to use a T-account to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows on the next slide.
T-account Approach(Indirect Method) The Cash account in this slide shows increases in Cash as debits and decreases in Cash as credits. Note how each section matches the three schedules that we prepared for Under Armour’s cash flows presented in the previous slides.
