Operating Cash Flow was so high in **Q1 2024** primarily because the company experienced **lower cash outflows for inventories**, as stock rebuilding that occurred in the prior year did not recur in the current period. This favorable condition was partially offset by **higher cash outflows for variable compensation**, but the net effect was a significant increase in operating cash flow.  **[0001637459-24-000066_ex991-erq12024.htm:1]** **[0001637459-24-000069_khc-20240330.htm:39]** 

Why was Operating Cash Flow so high in Q1 2024?

The documents do not provide any details regarding Free Cash Flow or the reasons for its near doubling in Q1 2024 [N/A].

Why did Free Cash Flow nearly double in Q1 2024?

Operating cash flow in Q2 2024 was lower primarily **because higher cash outflows for variable compensation** partially offset other favorable factors such as improvements in working capital (notably in inventory and accounts payable) and higher Adjusted Operating Income.  **[0001637459-24-000129_khc-20240629.htm:51]** 

Why was Operating Cash Flow lower in Q2 2024?

Based on the provided documents, there is no information regarding **Free Cash Flow** or the reasons behind its decline in Q2 2024. The documents only address the **Payments to acquire business, net of cash acquired** line item, which remained at **$0 million** for both Q2 2023 and Q2 2024.  **[0001637459-24-000125_ex991-erq22024.htm:15]** **[0001637459-24-000129_khc-20240629.htm:8]**  Therefore, we cannot definitively determine why Free Cash Flow declined in Q2 2024.

Why did Free Cash Flow decline in Q2 2024?

The operating income turned negative in Q3 2024 primarily due to **non-cash impairment losses totaling $1.4 billion**. These losses included **$707 million in goodwill impairments** and **$721 million in intangible asset impairments** (notably on the Lunchables brand), which were **$766 million higher** than in Q3 2023. Without these impairments, operating income would have actually increased by **$12 million**, but the substantial impact of the impairments, combined with factors such as unfavorable volume/mix, increased manufacturing expenses, and changes in unrealized losses/gains on commodity hedges, drove the operating income to a loss.  **[0001637459-24-000144_khc-20240928.htm:46]** **[0001637459-24-000138_ex991-erq32024.htm:3]** 

Why did Operating income/(loss) turn negative in Q3 2024?

The sharp increase in SG&A expenses in Q2 2024 was primarily driven by a **$854 million goodwill impairment loss**—a non-cash charge that was absent in Q2 2023—and secondarily by a rise in underlying expenses (from **$885 million to $918 million**) due to increased investments in **marketing, technology, and R&D**.  **[0001637459-24-000125_ex991-erq22024.htm:3]** **[0001637459-24-000125_ex991-erq22024.htm:10]** **[0001637459-24-000129_khc-20240629.htm:5]** **[0001637459-24-000125_ex991-erq22024.htm:10]** **[KHC_3395530_3]** 

What drove the sharp increase in SG&A expenses in Q2 2024?

Goodwill impairment losses nearly tripled in FY 2024 because of a combination of **segment-specific impairments**, significant **macroeconomic challenges**, and **reporting unit reorganizations**. Notably, the **North America** impairment increased substantially due to the reorganization and subsequent impairment of the **Meat & Cheese (MC)** reporting unit, while the **International Developed Markets** experienced sharp impairments driven by declining profitability assumptions, and **Emerging Markets** were impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions such as currency devaluation. These factors collectively resulted in a marked rise in impairment losses from **$510 million** in FY 2023 to **$1.6 billion** in FY 2024.  **[0001637459-25-000011_khc-20241228.htm:115]** **[0001637459-25-000011_khc-20241228.htm:116]** 

Why did Goodwill impairment losses nearly triple in FY 2024?

The spike in **Intangible asset impairment losses** in Q4 2024 was primarily driven by a **non-cash impairment loss related to the Oscar Mayer brand**, which resulted from additional perceived risk in achieving long-term cash flow forecasts for the meats business. This impairment contributed to the total of **$1.31 billion** in losses during the quarter, and additional impairments recognized in Q3 2024 for other brands also played a role.  **[0001637459-25-000011_khc-20241228.htm:122]** **[0001637459-25-000006_ex991-erq42024.htm:3]** **[0001637459-25-000006_ex991-erq42024.htm:10]** 

What caused the spike in Intangible asset impairment losses in Q4 2024?

The basic EPS turned negative in Q3 2024 primarily due to **significant non-cash impairment losses** totaling **$1.4 billion** (including **$707 million in goodwill impairment losses** and **$721 million in intangible asset impairment losses**) largely related to the Lunchables brand. Additionally, a **sharp decline in operating income**—falling to a loss of **$(101) million** compared to **$653 million** in Q3 2023—combined with **unfavorable volume/mix** and **higher manufacturing expenses**, contributed to a net loss of **$(290) million** in the period, which drove the basic EPS into negative territory.  **[0001637459-24-000138_ex991-erq32024.htm:3]** **[0001637459-24-000144_khc-20240928.htm:46]** **[0001637459-24-000138_ex991-erq32024.htm:10]**

The high **Cash and cash equivalents** in **Q1 2024** were attributed to strong operating performance. Specifically, the net cash provided by operating activities increased by **58.6%** to **$771 million**, and free cash flow grew by **116.8%** to **$477 million**. These improvements were driven by lower cash outflows for inventories during a prior period of stock rebuilding, partially offset by increased cash outflows for variable compensation.  **[0001637459-24-000066_ex991-erq12024.htm:11]** **[0001637459-24-000069_khc-20240330.htm:5]** **[0001637459-24-000066_ex991-erq12024.htm:1]** 

Why was Cash and cash equivalents so high in Q1 2024?

The current portion of long-term debt dropped by **$16 million** in Q1 2024, from **$638 million as of December 30, 2023** to **$622 million as of March 30, 2024**. The change is relatively small and was not explicitly explained in the documents. However, such fluctuations typically result from **scheduled repayments** or **reclassifications** of debt obligations between current and non-current portions.  **[0001637459-24-000066_ex991-erq12024.htm:11]** **[0001637459-24-000069_khc-20240330.htm:5]** 

What led to the drop in the current portion of long-term debt in Q1 2024?

The documents do not provide specific factors that contributed to the rise in long-term debt in Q1 2024. They only note that the debt increased from **$19,394 million** as of December 30, 2023, to **$19,923 million** as of March 30, 2024.  **[0001637459-24-000069_khc-20240330.htm:5]** **[0001637459-24-000066_ex991-erq12024.htm:11]** 

What factors contributed to the rise in long-term debt in Q1 2024?

The decline in total assets in Q4 2024 was primarily driven by decreases in **goodwill** (a reduction of **$1,786 million**, linked to non-cash impairment losses related to the Oscar Mayer brand), **intangible assets, net** (a decline of **$2,349 million**), and **inventories** (a decrease of **$238 million**).  **[0001637459-25-000011_khc-20241228.htm:94]** **[0001637459-25-000006_ex991-erq42024.htm:3]**
