Note: Prior-period information has been restated for the retrospective application of a change in accounting principle related to the amortization of actuarial gains and losses for our qualified U.S. government pension plans, which we adopted in the fourth quarter of 2020. For further discussion of this change in accounting principle, see Note T to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.

(a)Return on sales is calculated as earnings from continuing operations divided by revenue.

(b)Debt-to-equity ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total equity as of year end.

(c)Debt-to-capital ratio is calculated as total debt divided by the sum of total debt plus total equity as of year end.

(d)Book value per share is calculated as total equity divided by total outstanding shares as of year end.

(e)See Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow from operations and the calculation of return on invested capital (ROIC), both of which are non-GAAP management metrics.

(f)Return on equity is calculated by dividing earnings from continuing operations by our average equity during the year.
