APPENDIX NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION TABLE

Free cash flow represents net cash provided from operating activities less purchases of plant, property and equipment. Hormel considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of plants, property, equipment and technology. Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP measure in assessing the company’s liquidity for the periods presented. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. In the table that follows, free cash flow for each period presented is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities.
