9 Bavelos Working Capital Rules of Thumb* For every $1 billion of targetable spend Annual INCOME of $3-$5 million CASH in excess of $250 million *Based on over 100 client implementations and more than $1 trillion in spend 9

10 There is GOLD in them Terms The B2B Cash Gap (Supplier payment delay) 0 Days Invoice 15 Days Approval 60 Days Payment The Business-to-Business Pay Cycle B2B payment terms starve suppliers of cash Over $9 trillion is waiting to be paid on any given day Cash delays limit investment, slow supplier growth 10

11 How to Enable Working Capital Opportunity Faster invoice approval Longer Net Terms Day 10 Day 30 Day 45 Day 60 Longer net terms more need for cash Faster approval more early payments 11

12 A Few Guiding Principles All suppliers will pay to accelerate cash it s a question of price Value is the spread between what suppliers will pay and the cost of the financing capital Value is interchangeable between cash and income Maximum income Interchangeable Maximum cash 12

13 Landscape of the Opportunity Spend $M Spend Spend Spend Value APR APR $40 APR 70.0% $35 $30 $ % 50.0% 40.0% $20 $15 $ % 20.0% $5 10.0% $ ,000 1,250 1,500 1,750 2,000 Opportunity Typical Supplier spend cost distribution of capital by by ranked supplier size size 0.0% Value = Spend x APR (what suppliers will pay) 13

15 ❶Supply Chain Financing Increases CASH by using bank financing to help extend terms Suppliers get cash at the BUYERS COST OF CAPITAL Banks pay suppliers upon notice of approved invoices from buyer This Payment Intent notice limits bank s risk to default of buyer Creates a WIN/WIN that is good for suppliers Buyer gets FREE CASH from DPO extension Supplier gets PAID SOONER at low rate enabled by the BUYER NO IMPACT to buyer s credit rating or debt Over 2,000 ADOPTERS FASB trade payables accounting 15

16 ❶Supply Chain Finance - How it Works Buyer s Notice of Payment Intent to Bank Enables Low Cost Financing for Suppliers ❸ Day 90 Buyer Pays Bank Net Invoice Amount Buyer ❷ Day 10 Invoice Approved - Buyer Sends Bank Payment Intent Notice SCF Bank ❷ Day 10 Bank Pays Supplier net of Fee Supplier ❶ Day 1 Supplier Sends Buyer Invoice 16

18 Why Suppliers Like Supply Chain Finance They can get PAID SOONER at LESS COST EXAMPLE Annual spend $10,000,000 Supplier cost of capital 8% Bank SCF APR 1.2% Approval Current Net New Net Financing Cost Current cost to supplier $111,111 Cost with SCF $16,667 Additional cost for longer terms $10,000 AVAILABLE SAVINGS TO SUPPLIER $84,444 Even with longer net terms Suppler SAVES $84,444 and gets paid early! 18

19 ❷ Early Pay Programs Dynamic Discounting Use of ASAP (sliding slope) Terms How it works APR rate is fixed Discount varies Benefits Discounts on any approval up to net date Picks up large savings for earlier payment 3.0% 2.5% 2.0% 1.5% 1.0% 0.5% 0% Day 10 Invoice approval time Expanded Opportunity Day 30 Day 45 Day 60 2% 10 ASAP 45 ALL INVOICES qualify for a discount 19

20 ❷Early Pay Programs Dynamic Offers Use of ad hoc early payment terms How it works Ad hoc early pay terms Methods: POs, , web site Benefits Skims savings at key times Offers based on supplier end of month & quarter cash needs No pre-existing terms needed Pay Me Now Offer $3,200 approved to pay Pay today for 1% discount Press here to approve Skims out discounts at optimal times 20

21 BIP Card Programs Buyer Initiated Payment Cards Payment initiated directly from buyer s ERP Suppliers get paid 30 days sooner via card Buyer earns a rebate on all spend Offered by AMEX, Visa, & MasterCard Low administration Provides 30 days of credit to the supply chain 21

31 Showcasing Supply Chain Finance for Analysts We are now executing a supplier financing initiative which allows us to extend payment days with suppliers by providing suppliers third party cash at a nominal cost of money, so they can get their cash sooner. We believe and know this will provide great benefits to our working capital of about $200 to $300 million and should reduce our debt levels slightly versus what we previously expected. i Ron Dissinger, CFO CAGNY Conference Feb. 19, 2014 There has been some press recently about a new program that we've introduced with suppliers called Supply Chain Finance, where we're partnering with some of i our world-class banking partners to present a win-win solution to suppliers. As part of that, we'll be extending our payment terms which obviously frees up cash for us. So this is something that we think, will free up a tremendous amount of cash starting next year and then over the next two to three years. Teri List-Stoll, Former Treasurer (Current CFO of Kraft) 3Q 2013 Earnings Call Our cash from operations in the third quarter was $912 million, up 7% compared to $844 million last year. We continue to manage primary working capital well. Our yearto-date cash conversion cycle is down four days compared to full-year Mark A. Buthman, CFO 3Q 2013 Earnings Call, Oct. 22, 2013 Working capital is an area that we've just done a really a terrific job. We've done it through extending payables terms and being pretty innovative in how we engage suppliers with our banks to provide supplier financing. So we expect continuous improvement in working capital going forward. Mark A. Buthman, CFO Barclays Back-to-School Conference September 4, 2013 We expect to show another year of growth in 2014, reflecting anticipated earnings growth and the continued strong working capital management. We ll stay disciplined about how we use our cash flow. Simply put, we will balance the need to make well-considered investments designed to full General Mills growth Donal Lee Mulligan, CFO CAGNY Conference Feb. 18, 2014 In a year where net sales increased 7%, our core working capital declined 5%, reflecting our focus on extending payable terms. The strong cash flow funded $614 million in capital spending. Donal Lee Mulligan, CFO 4Q13 Earnings Call July 26,
