Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for the quarter ended July 2, 2011 (unaudited)
Note 1 Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The unaudited interim financial information of Kellogg Company (the Company) included in this report reflects normal recurring adjustments that management believes are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position, equity and cash flows for the periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes contained on pages 27 to 57 of the Companys 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The condensed balance sheet data at January 1, 2011 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The results of operations for the quarterly period ended July 2, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or the full year.
Accounting standards to be adopted in future periods
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, requiring most entities to present items of net income and other comprehensive income either in one continuous statement referred to as the statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. The update does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU No. 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will be adopting ASU 2011-05 at the beginning of its 2012 fiscal year.
Note 2 Goodwill and other intangible assets
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the quarter ended July 2, 2011 are presented in the following table.

Note 3 Exit or disposal activities
The Company views its continued spending on cost-reduction activities as part of its ongoing operating principles to provide greater visibility in achieving its long-term profit growth targets. Initiatives undertaken are currently expected to recover cash implementation costs within a five-year period of completion. Upon completion (or as each major stage is completed in the case of multi-year programs), the project begins to deliver cash savings and/or reduced depreciation.
2011 activities
During 2011, the Company incurred exit costs related to two ongoing programs which will result in cost of goods sold (COGS) and selling, general and administrative (SGA) expense savings. The COGS program relates to Kelloggs lean, efficient, and agile network (K LEAN). The SGA programs focus on the efficiency and effectiveness of various support functions.
Total charges incurred during the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 were as follows:

Note 4 Equity
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income attributable to Kellogg Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is similarly determined, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist principally of employee stock options issued by the Company, and to a lesser extent, certain contingently issuable performance shares. Basic earnings per share is reconciled to diluted earnings per share in the following table. The total number of anti-dilutive potential common shares excluded from the reconciliation were 5 million and 8 million for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011, respectively, and 4 million for both the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 3, 2010.

During the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011, the Company issued 0.4 million shares to employees and directors under various benefit plans and stock purchase programs. Equity-based compensation is discussed further in Note 6.
On April 23, 2010, the Companys board of directors authorized a $2.5 billion three-year share repurchase program for 2010 through 2012. During the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011, the Company repurchased 9 million shares of common stock for a total of $513 million. During the year-to-date period ended July 3, 2010, the Company repurchased 7 million shares of common stock for a total of $356 million, of which $266 million was paid during the six-month period and $90 million was payable at July 3, 2010 for stock repurchases that did not settle prior to the end of the reporting period.
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income includes net income and all other changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by or distributions to shareholders. Other comprehensive income for all periods presented consists of foreign currency translation adjustments, fair value adjustments associated with cash flow hedges and adjustments for net experience losses and prior service cost related to employee benefit plans.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company amended its U.S. postretirement healthcare benefit plan, which resulted in a $17 million decrease of a deferred tax asset.

In May 2011, the Company issued $400 million of seven-year 3.25% fixed rate U.S. Dollar Notes, using the proceeds from these Notes for general corporate purposes including repayment of commercial paper. The Notes contain customary covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries (as defined) to incur certain liens or enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions, as well as a change of control provision.
During the first quarter of 2011, the Company repaid its $946 million, ten-year 6.6% U.S. Dollar Notes at maturity with U.S. commercial paper.
In March 2011, the Company entered into an unsecured Four-Year Credit Agreement to replace its existing unsecured Five-Year Credit Agreement, which would have expired in November 2011. The Four-Year Credit Agreement allows the Company to borrow, on a revolving credit basis, up to $2.0 billion, to obtain letters of credit in an aggregate amount up to $75 million, U.S. swingline loans in an aggregate amount up to $200 million and European swingline loans in an aggregate amount up to $400 million and to provide a procedure for lenders to bid on short-term debt of the Company. The agreement contains customary covenants and warranties, including specified restrictions on indebtedness, liens, sale and leaseback transactions, and a specified interest coverage ratio. If an event of default occurs, then, to the extent permitted, the administrative agent may terminate the commitments under the credit facility, accelerate any outstanding loans under the agreement, and demand the deposit of cash collateral equal to the lenders letter of credit exposure plus interest.

Note 6 Stock compensation
The Company uses various equity-based compensation programs to provide long-term performance incentives for its global workforce. Currently, these incentives consist principally of stock options, and to a lesser extent, executive performance shares and restricted stock grants. Additionally, the Company awards restricted stock to its non-employee directors. The interim information below should be read in conjunction with the disclosures included on pages 41 to 44 of the Companys 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company classifies pre-tax stock compensation expense in SGA expense principally within its corporate operations. For the periods presented, compensation expense for all types of equity-based programs and the related income tax benefit recognized were as follows:

$ 4 | $ 3 | $ 8 | $ 8 | ||||
As of July 2, 2011, total stock-based compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $63 million and the weighted-average period over which this amount is expected to be recognized was 2 years.
Stock options
During the year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to eligible employees as presented in the following activity tables. Terms of these grants and the Companys methods for determining grant-date fair value of the awards were consistent with that described on pages 42 and 43 of the Companys 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Performance shares
In the first quarter of 2011, the Company granted performance shares to a limited number of senior executive-level employees, which entitle these employees to receive a specified number of shares of the Companys common stock on the vesting date, provided cumulative three-year operating profit and internal net sales growth targets are achieved.
The 2011 target grant currently corresponds to approximately 225,000 shares, with a grant-date fair value of $48 per share. The actual number of shares issued on the vesting date could range from 0 to 200% of target, depending on actual performance achieved. Based on the market price of the Companys common stock at July 2, 2011, the maximum future value that could be awarded to employees on the vesting date for all outstanding performance share awards was as follows:
(millions) | July 2, 2011 | |
2009 Award |
$19 | |
2010 Award |
$22 | |

The 2008 performance share award, payable in stock, was settled at 69% of target in February 2011 for a total dollar equivalent of $6 million.
Note 7 Employee benefits
The Company sponsors a number of U.S. and foreign pension, other nonpension postretirement and postemployment plans to provide various benefits for its employees.

Note 8 Income taxes
The consolidated effective tax rate for the quarter ended July 2, 2011, of 30% was comparable to prior years rate of 30%. The consolidated effective tax rate for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011 was 29%, compared to the prior year-to-date period ended July 3, 2010 rate of 28%. Both year-to-date periods were positively impacted by discrete items. The effective rate for 2011 benefited from a first quarter international legal restructuring as well as the closing of various audits, while the effective rate for 2010 benefited from an immaterial correction of an item related to prior years.
As of July 2, 2011, the Company classified $12 million of unrecognized tax positions as a net current liability, representing several income tax positions under examination in various jurisdictions. Managements estimate of reasonably possible changes in unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months consists of the current liability balance, expected to be settled within one year, offset by $9 million of projected additions. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant additional payments, accruals or other material deviation in this estimate.

Following is a reconciliation of the Companys total gross unrecognized tax benefits for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011; $50 million of this total represents the amount that, if recognized, would affect the Companys effective income tax rate in future periods.

Note 9 Derivative instruments and fair value measurements
The Company is exposed to certain market risks such as changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity prices, which exist as a part of its ongoing business operations. Management uses derivative financial and commodity instruments, including futures, options, and swaps, where appropriate, to manage these risks. Instruments used as hedges must be effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the inception of the contract.
The Company designates derivatives as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges, net investment hedges, and uses other contracts to reduce volatility in interest rates, foreign currency and commodities. As a matter of policy, the Company does not engage in trading or speculative hedging transactions.
Total notional amounts of the Companys derivative instruments as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 were as follows:

Following is a description of each category in the fair value hierarchy and the financial assets and liabilities of the Company that were included in each category at July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, measured on a recurring basis.
Level 1 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market. For the Company, level 1 financial assets and liabilities consist primarily of commodity derivative contracts.
Level 2 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
For the Company, level 2 financial assets and liabilities consist of interest rate swaps and over-the-counter commodity and currency contracts.
The Companys calculation of the fair value of interest rate swaps is derived from a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contract and the interest rate curve. Over-the-counter commodity derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the commodity index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Foreign
17
currency contracts are valued using an income approach based on forward rates less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. The Companys calculation of the fair value of level 2 financial assets and liabilities takes into consideration the risk of nonperformance, including counterparty credit risk.
Level 3 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect managements own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company did not have any level 3 financial assets or liabilities as of July 2, 2011 or January 1, 2011.

Certain of the Companys derivative instruments contain provisions requiring the Company to post collateral on those derivative instruments that are in a liability position if the Companys credit rating falls below BB+ (S&P), or Baa1 (Moodys). The fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a liability position on July 2, 2011 was $33 million. If the credit-risk-related contingent features were triggered as of July 2, 2011, the Company would be required to post collateral of $33 million. In addition, certain derivative instruments contain provisions that would be triggered in the event the Company defaults on its debt agreements. There were no collateral posting requirements as of July 2, 2011 triggered by credit-risk-related contingent features.
20
Financial instruments
The carrying values of the Companys short-term items, including cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable approximate fair value. The fair value of the Companys long-term debt is calculated based on broker quotes and was as follows at July 2, 2011:
(millions) | Fair Value | Carrying Value | ||||||
Long-term debt |
$ | 5,767 | $ | 5,308 | ||||
Credit risk concentration
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties on derivative financial and commodity contracts. Management believes a concentration of credit risk with respect to derivative counterparties is limited due to the credit ratings of the counterparties and the use of master netting and reciprocal collateralization agreements.
Master netting agreements apply in situations where the Company executes multiple contracts with the same counterparty. Certain counterparties represent a concentration of credit risk to the Company. If those counterparties fail to perform according to the terms of derivative contracts, this would result in a loss to the Company of $48 million as of July 2, 2011.
For certain derivative contracts, reciprocal collateralization agreements with counterparties call for the posting of collateral in the form of cash, treasury securities or letters of credit if a fair value loss position to the Company or our counterparties exceeds a certain amount. There were no collateral balance requirements at July 2, 2011.
Management believes concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited due to the generally high credit quality of the Companys major customers, as well as the large number and geographic dispersion of smaller customers. However, the Company conducts a disproportionate amount of business with a small number of large multinational grocery retailers, with the five largest accounts encompassing approximately 28% of consolidated trade receivables at July 2, 2011.
Note 10 Product recall
On June 25, 2010, the Company announced a recall of select packages of Kelloggs cereal in the U.S. due to an odor from waxy resins found in the package liner. Estimated customer returns and consumer rebates were recorded as a reduction of net sales; costs associated with returned product and the disposal and write-off of inventory were recorded as COGS; and other recall costs were recorded as SGA expenses. In addition to the costs of the recall, the Company also lost sales of the impacted products in the second quarter of 2010.

PART IFINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of operations
Overview
For more than 100 years, consumers have counted on Kellogg for great-tasting, high-quality and nutritious foods. Kellogg Company is the worlds leading producer of cereal and a leading producer of convenience foods, including cookies, crackers, toaster pastries, cereal bars, frozen waffles and veggie foods. Kellogg products are manufactured and marketed globally. We currently manage our operations in four geographic operating segments, consisting of North America and the three International operating segments of Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific.
We manage our Company for sustainable performance defined by our long-term annual growth targets. These targets are 3 to 4% for internal net sales, mid single-digit (4 to 6%) for internal operating profit, and high single-digit (7 to 9%) for net earnings per share on a currency-neutral basis. Internal net sales and internal operating profit exclude the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions, dispositions and shipping day differences. See the Foreign currency translation section for an explanation of managements definition of currency neutral.
For the quarter ended July 2, 2011, our reported net sales increased 11% and internal net sales increased 6%. Consolidated operating profit increased 12%, while internal operating profit increased 8%. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 19% to $0.94, compared to $0.79 in the comparable prior year quarter. EPS on a currency-neutral basis was up 13%. Our performance was in-line with our expectations for the quarter. We had strong top-line growth, driven by price execution, and invested in brand building and in our supply chain. We lapped a soft 2010 second quarter.
For the full year 2011, we expect our internal net sales to increase by approximately 4-5%. We are on track to meet our internal operating profit guidance of flat to down 2%, and our currency-neutral earnings per diluted share growth of low single-digits (1 to 3%).

Our reported consolidated net sales grew by 11%. Volumes increased slightly in the quarter and pricing/mix increased net sales by 5.4%. We lapped the soft comparisons of the second quarter of 2010 when we were negatively impacted by weakness in cereal, lower waffle sales and a recall of select packages of breakfast cereals. If we exclude the impact of the cereal recall, volume would have been down slightly, but net sales would have been up almost 5%. Overall, we are pleased with the performance as we continued to execute our plan to gain momentum in our business by price realization, innovation and brand building. Foreign exchange provided a favorable impact of almost 5%.
Our North America operating segment had internal net sales growth of 8%. North America has three product groups: retail cereal; retail snacks; and frozen and specialty channels. Internal net sales of retail cereal increased 13%, lapping a soft second quarter 2010 which was negatively impacted by the recall of select breakfast cereals. During the second quarter of 2011, we saw improving trends in the cereal category, which responds well to innovation and brand building. These positive trends were reflected in our second quarter results. Our growth was driven by net price realization, good base performance which was supported by our 2011 first half innovation and increased distribution points.
The retail snack product group (cookies, crackers, toaster pastries, cereal bars and fruit-flavored snacks) grew 3% driven by strength in our cracker business. Our first quarter cracker innovation has been very successful. Our cookie sales saw strong base growth but delivered lower net sales in the quarter. We launched the Keebler® master brand initiative in the second quarter which aligned pricing, packaging and scale across the Keebler® brand. This caused a reduction in activity during the quarter, which negatively impacted our results.
Internal net sales in the frozen and specialty channels (frozen foods, food service and vending) increased 10%, driven by growth in our frozen food business, particularly in our waffle business. The veggie category remained strong. Our food service business was soft in the quarter due to a continued difficult operating environment.
Internal net sales in our international operating segments increased 3%. Europes internal net sales grew by 1%, driven by positive performance in France, Italy and Russia. In the U.K., we began to see early signs of improvement in the cereal category, while snacks continued to struggle in the tough consumer and trade environment. Latin Americas internal net sales grew by 7% due to price realization and volume recovery in Brazil, as well as strength in Colombia. Net sales in Mexico were flat, where we have been negatively impacted by trade issues which we believe are behind us. In Asia Pacific, internal net sales were up 4% as a result of the strong sales in our India, South Africa and Korea businesses. In Australia, our sales were up slightly over last year in a difficult retail environment.
Consolidated operating profit increased by 12% on a reported basis, and 8% on an internal basis. The increase was driven by strong sales growth and savings from our cost savings initiatives. We lapped a soft second quarter of 2010 where internal operating profit was down 11%.
Internal operating profit in North America increased by 11% in the quarter, lapping last years decline of 16%. The increase in operating profit reflected strong net sales growth, which more than offset higher input costs and increased brand building investments. Europes internal operating profit declined by 9%, impacted by the difficult operating environment in the U.K. and input cost inflation across the region. In Latin America, internal operating profit increased by 19%, driven by strong sales growth, partially offset by a double-digit increase in brand-building investment. Latin Americas operating profit for the quarter includes a few discrete items, including a gain on the sale of a previously closed facility. Excluding these discrete items, Latin America operating profit grew approximately 10%. Asia Pacifics internal operating profit increased by 3% primarily due to price execution across the region.
The following tables provide analysis of our net sales and operating performance for the year-to-date periods of 2011 as compared to 2010. Our net sales benefited from a slight increase in volume, improved pricing/mix due to price realization and foreign exchange. Internal operating profit was down on a year-to-date basis due to a lag in price execution behind a significant increase in input cost inflation in the first quarter of 2011.

(b) | Selling, general, and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales. |
Gross profit dollars in the quarter were up 11% to $1.4 billion. Our price realization and cost savings initiatives covered input cost inflation, resulting in a flat gross margin compared to a year ago at 42.6 percent. Our selling, general and administrative (SGA) expense as a percentage of net sales decreased by 20 basis points primarily due to an increase in the net sales base.
On a year-to-date basis, gross margin is down 110 basis points. This is due to the lag of price execution in the first quarter of 2011 to cover increased input costs. Our SGA expense as a percentage of net sales increased by 30 basis points primarily due to increased investments in advertising and promotion.
For the full year, we expect gross margin to remain under pressure and be down approximately 50 basis points.
25
Foreign currency translation
The reporting currency for our financial statements is the U.S. dollar. Certain of our assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily in the euro, British pound, Mexican peso, Australian dollar and Canadian dollar. To prepare our consolidated financial statements, we must translate those assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates. As a result, increases and decreases in the value of the U.S. dollar against these other currencies will affect the amount of these items in our consolidated financial statements, even if their value has not changed in their original currency. This could have a significant impact on our results if such increase or decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar is substantial.
Volatility in the foreign exchange markets has limited our ability to forecast future U.S. dollar reported earnings. As such, we are measuring diluted earnings per share growth and providing guidance on future earnings on a currency neutral basis, assuming earnings are translated at the prior years exchange rates. This non-GAAP financial measure is being used to focus management and investors on local currency business results, thereby providing visibility to the underlying trends of the Company. Management believes that excluding the impact of foreign currency from EPS provides a useful measurement of comparability given the volatility in foreign exchange markets.

Cost reduction initiatives
We view our continued spending on cost reduction initiatives as part of our ongoing operating principles to provide greater visibility in achieving our long-term profit growth targets. Initiatives undertaken are currently expected to recover cash implementation costs within a five-year period of completion. Each cost reduction initiative is normally up to three years in duration. Upon completion (or as each major stage is completed in the case of multi-year programs), the project begins to deliver cash savings and/or reduced depreciation. Certain of these initiatives represent exit or disposal plans for which material charges will be incurred. See further discussion in Note 3. We include these charges in our measure of operating segment profitability. In 2009, we announced our intention to achieve $1 billion plus of annual cost savings in three years (beginning in 2012). These initiatives are integral to meeting our $1 billion plus savings challenge.
2011 activities
We incurred costs related to our cost reduction initiatives which do not qualify as exit costs under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These represent cash costs for consulting and other charges for our COGS and SGA programs.

The additional cost and cash outlay in 2011 for these programs, excluding exit costs, is estimated to be $5 million. The projects are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2011.
SAP reimplementation
We are reimplementing SAP which will result in process and productivity improvements. The program is expected to require approximately $70 million of incremental expense, including consulting, in addition to capital investments. The reimplementation will begin in the third quarter of 2011.

Total costs incurred for this program during the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 were as follows:

To date, we have incurred $14 million in program costs. These costs impacted our operating segments as follows (in millions): North America-$12; and Latin America-$2. The additional cost and cash outlay for the remainder of 2011 through 2014 for this program is expected to be approximately $55 million.
Interest expense
For the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011, interest expense was $ 53 million and $ 120 million, respectively, as compared to the quarter and year-to-date periods ended July 3, 2010 with interest expense of $ 61 million and $ 126 million, respectively. Second quarter 2011 interest expense was lower than prior periods due to the differential in interest rates on debt that matured in March 2011 versus debt that was issued in May 2011.
For the full year 2011, we expect gross interest expense to be approximately $235 to $245 million, compared to 2010s full year amount of $248 million.
Income taxes
The consolidated effective income tax rate was 30% for the quarter ended July 2, 2011, as compared to 30% for the comparable quarter of 2010. Refer to Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
For the full year 2011, we currently expect the consolidated effective income tax rate to be approximately 29%. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could impact the expected effective income tax rate as it is dependent upon U.S. dollar earnings of foreign subsidiaries doing business in various countries with differing statutory rates. Additionally, the rate could be impacted if pending uncertain tax matters, including tax positions that could be affected by planning initiatives, are resolved more or less favorably than we currently expect.
Liquidity and capital resources
Our principal source of liquidity is operating cash flows supplemented by borrowings for major acquisitions and other significant transactions. Our cash-generating capability is one of our fundamental strengths and provides us with substantial financial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs.
The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows:

Operating activities
The principal source of our operating cash flow is net earnings, meaning cash receipts from the sale of our products, net of costs to manufacture and market our products.
Net cash provided by our operating activities for the first half of 2011 amounted to $646 million, an increase of more than $50 million compared with the first half of 2010, attributable to lower incentive compensation payments during first quarter 2011, partially offset by a negative impact of the timing of working capital.
Our cash conversion cycle (defined as days of inventory and trade receivables outstanding less days of trade payables outstanding, based on a trailing 12 month average) is relatively short, equating to approximately 23 days and 22 days for the 12 month periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. Compared with the 12 month period ended July 3, 2010, the unfavorable impact on the 2011 cash conversion cycle resulted from higher days of inventory outstanding.
Our pension and other postretirement benefit plan contributions amounted to $183 million and $36 million for the year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. For full year 2011, we currently expect that our contributions to pension and other postretirement plans will total approximately $200 million. Plan funding strategies may be modified in response to our evaluation of tax deductibility, market conditions and competing investment alternatives.
We measure cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by expenditures for property additions. We use this non-GAAP financial measure of cash flow to focus management and investors on the amount of cash available for debt repayment, dividend distributions, acquisition opportunities, and share repurchases. Our cash flow metric is reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure, as follows:

For 2011, we are projecting cash flow (as defined) within a range of $1.1 billion to $1.2 billion. This projection reflects the impact of our expected pension and postretirement benefit plan contributions, net of tax.
Investing activities
Our net cash used in investing activities during the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011 amounted to $238 million, an increase of almost $100 million compared with the same period in 2010. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to the addition of manufacturing capacity to support growth and innovation as well as investments in our supply chain infrastructure.
For full-year 2011, we project capital spending of approximately 4 to 5% of net sales. We are increasing our investment in manufacturing capacity as well as improving our information technology infrastructure.
Financing activities
Our net cash used in financing activities for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2011 amounted to $417 million compared with $289 million for the comparable period in 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in repurchases of common stock.
We spent $518 million and $356 million to repurchase common stock during the year-to-date periods ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. Of the $518 million spent in 2011, $5 million was related to shares purchased in 2010 that did not settle prior to the end of the 2010 reporting period. During the first half of 2011 we repurchased approximately 9.5 million shares of our common stock. During the same period of 2010, we repurchased approximately 7 million shares of our common stock, $266 million of which was paid during the six-month period ending July 3, 2010; $90 million was payable at that date, for stock repurchases that did not settle prior to the end of the reporting period.
On April 23, 2010, our board of directors authorized a $2.5 billion, three-year share repurchase program for 2010 through 2012. As of July 2, 2011, total purchases under the repurchase authorization amounted to 30 million shares totaling $1.6 billion. During the remainder of 2011 and 2012, we plan to execute the remaining repurchases under the 2010 authorization. We project total purchases of $800 million in 2011, which includes the $518 million executed in the first half of 2011, with the balance in 2012. Actual repurchases could be different from our current projections, as influenced by factors such as the impact of changes in our stock price and other competing priorities.
29
We paid cash dividends of $296 million in the first half of 2011, compared to $286 million during the same period in 2010. In July 2011, the board of directors declared a dividend of $.43 per common share, payable September 15, 2011 to shareholders of record at close of business on September 1, 2011. The dividend of $.43 per share represents a 6% increase in the $.405 per share quarterly dividend rate paid during the trailing twelve months. This increase is consistent with our current plan to maintain our dividend pay-out between 40% and 50% of reported net income.
We used commercial paper to refinance $946 million of long-term debt that matured in the first quarter of 2011. In May 2011, we issued $400 million of seven-year 3.25% fixed rate U.S. Dollar Notes, and used proceeds of $397 million to pay down commercial paper.
In March 2011, we entered into an unsecured Four-Year Credit Agreement to replace our existing unsecured Five-Year Credit Agreement, which would have expired in November 2011. The Four-Year Credit Agreement allows us to borrow, on a revolving credit basis, up to $2.0 billion, although we do not plan to use it. (See Note 5 within Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Four-Year Credit Agreement.)
We are in compliance with all debt covenants. We continue to believe that we will be able to meet our interest and principal repayment obligations and maintain our debt covenants for the foreseeable future. We expect our access to public debt and commercial paper markets, along with operating cash flows, will be adequate to meet future operating, investing and financing needs, including the pursuit of selected acquisitions.
Accounting standards to be adopted in future periods
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, requiring most entities to present items of net income and other comprehensive income either in one continuous statement referred to as the statement of comprehensive income or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. The update does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU No. 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We will be adopting ASU 2011-05 at the beginning of our 2012 fiscal year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our Company is exposed to certain market risks, which exist as a part of our ongoing business operations. We use derivative financial and commodity instruments, where appropriate, to manage these risks. Refer to Note 9 within Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our derivative financial and commodity instruments.
Refer to disclosures contained on pages 25-26 of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than changes noted here, there have been no material changes in the Companys market risk as of July 2, 2011.
During the quarter ended April 2, 2011, we entered into additional interest rate swaps in connection with certain U.S. Dollar Notes. The total notional amount of interest rate swaps at July 2, 2011 was $2.7 billion, representing a settlement receivable of $67 million. The total notional amount of interest rate swaps at January 1, 2011 was $1.9 billion, representing a settlement receivable of $74 million.
The total notional amount of commodity derivative instruments at July 2, 2011 was $291 million, representing a settlement obligation of approximately $40 million. The total notional amount of commodity derivative instruments at January 1, 2011 was $379 million, representing a settlement obligation of approximately $16 million. Assuming a 10% decrease in period-end commodity prices, the settlement obligation would have increased by approximately $25 million at July 2, 2011, and $36 million at January 1, 2011, generally offset by a reduction in the cost of the underlying commodity purchases.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
As of July 2, 2011, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
During the last fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
