Kraft Foods Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include Kraft Foods, as well as our wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries.

Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted. It is management’s opinion that these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results. Net revenues and net earnings for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. You should read these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Certain reclassifications of prior-year amounts were made to conform to current-year presentation.

The majority of our operating subsidiaries report results as of the last Saturday of the period. A portion of our international operating subsidiaries report results as of the last calendar day of the period or two weeks prior to the last Saturday of the period.

In the second quarter of 2011, we changed the consolidation date for certain operations of our Kraft Foods Europe segment and operations in certain regions of our Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment [Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa (“CEEMA”)]. Previously, these operations primarily reported results two weeks prior to the end of the period. Now, our Kraft Foods Europe segment reports results as of the last Saturday of each period. Our operations in Latin America and certain operations in CEEMA report results as of the last calendar day of the period. These changes resulted in a favorable impact to net revenues of $360 million and a favorable impact of $50 million to operating income.

In the second quarter of 2010, we changed the consolidation date for certain European biscuits operations within our Kraft Foods Europe segment and certain operations in Asia Pacific within our Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment. Previously, these operations primarily reported period-end results one month prior to the end of the period and moved to reporting results two weeks prior to the last Saturday of the period. These changes resulted in a favorable impact to net revenues of $70 million and had an insignificant impact on operating income.

We believe these changes are preferable and will improve business planning and financial reporting by better matching the close dates of the operating subsidiaries within our Kraft Foods Europe segment and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment and by bringing the reporting date closer to the period-end date. As the impact to prior-period results was not material, we have not revised prior-period results.

Highly Inflationary Accounting:

We account for our Venezuelan subsidiaries under highly inflationary accounting rules, which principally means all transactions are recorded in U.S. dollars. Venezuela has two exchange rates: the official rate and the government-regulated Transaction System for Foreign Currency Denominated Securities (“SITME”) rate. We used both the official rate and the SITME rate to translate our Venezuelan operations into U.S. dollars, based on the nature of the operations of each individual subsidiary.

We recorded $11 million of favorable foreign currency impacts relating to highly inflationary accounting in Venezuela during the first nine months of 2011 and approximately $85 million of unfavorable foreign currency impacts during the first nine months of 2010. The 2010 loss included a one-time impact to translate cash of $34 million that we previously carried at the secondary market exchange rate. Upon the change to highly inflationary accounting in January 2010, we were required to translate the U.S. dollars on hand using the official rate.

5


New Accounting Pronouncements:

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment related to multiemployer pension plans. This amendment increases the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about an employer’s participation in individually significant multiemployer plans that offer pension and other postretirement benefits. The guidance is effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on our financial results, but will expand our annual disclosures related to multiemployer pension plans within the notes to our annual financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. An entity now has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that goodwill may be impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, goodwill impairment is determined to be not likely, then performing the quantitative two-step impairment test would not be required. The new guidance also modifies goodwill evaluation during the year to make it consistent with the new annual qualitative approach. The update is effective for annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. We plan to early adopt in the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The new guidance will not have an impact on our financial results but is expected to simplify the goodwill testing we do on an annual and interim basis.

In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment related to statements of comprehensive income. This amendment requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This amended guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on our financial results, but will change the financial presentation of other comprehensive income within our financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to revise certain fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. This amendment establishes common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. These changes will be effective January 1, 2012 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial results.

Subsequent Events:

We evaluated subsequent events and included all accounting and disclosure requirements related to subsequent events in our financial statements.

Note 2.  Proposed Spin-off Transaction

On August 4, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors intends to create two independent public companies: (i) a global snacks business (the “Global Snacks Business”) and (ii) a North American grocery business (the “North American Grocery Business”). The Global Snacks Business will consist of our current Kraft Foods Europe and Developing Markets segments as well as our North American snack and confectionary brands. The North American Grocery Business will primarily consist of our current U.S. Beverages, Cheese, Convenient Meals and Grocery segments, grocery-related categories in our Canada & N.A. Foodservice segment as well as the Planters and Corn Nuts brands and businesses. We expect to create these companies through a U.S. tax-free spin-off of the North American Grocery Business to our shareholders.

The transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals, a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service to ensure the U.S. tax-free status of the spin-off, execution of intercompany agreements, further diligence as appropriate and final approval from our Board of Directors. While our current target is to complete the spin-off before year-end 2012, we cannot assure that the spin-off will be completed on the anticipated timeline or that the terms of the spin-off will not change.

Note 3.  Acquisitions and Divestitures

Cadbury Acquisition and related Divestitures:

On February 2, 2010, we acquired 71.73% of Cadbury Limited (“Cadbury”) and as of June 1, 2010, we owned 100% of all outstanding Cadbury Shares. The Cadbury acquisition was valued at $18,547 million, or $17,503 million net of cash and cash equivalents.

As part of our Cadbury acquisition, we expensed and incurred transaction-related fees of $2 million for the three months and $217 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses. We also incurred acquisition financing fees of $96 million in the first quarter of 2010. We recorded these expenses within interest and other expense, net.

The EU Commission required, as a condition of our Cadbury acquisition, that we divest certain Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania. In the third quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of the assets of the confectionery operations in Poland and Romania. The total proceeds from the divestitures were $342 million and the impacts of these divestitures were reflected as adjustments to the purchase price allocations.

Cadbury contributed net revenues of $6,376 million and net earnings of $369 million from February 2, 2010 through September 30, 2010. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents Kraft Foods’ consolidated information as if Cadbury had been acquired on January 1, 2010. These amounts were calculated after conversion to U.S. GAAP, applying our accounting policies, and adjusting Cadbury’s results to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied from January 1, 2010, together with the consequential tax effects. These adjustments also reflect the additional interest expense incurred on the debt to finance the purchase and the divestitures of the Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania.

Non-amortizable intangible assets consist substantially of brand names purchased through our acquisitions of Nabisco Holdings Corp., the Spanish and Portuguese operations of United Biscuits, the global LU biscuit business of Groupe Danone S.A. and Cadbury. Amortizable intangible assets consist primarily of trademark licenses, customer-related intangibles, process technology and non-compete agreements. Amortization expense was $58 million for the three months and $172 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. We currently estimate annual amortization expense for each of the next five years to be approximately $220 million. At September 30, 2011, the weighted-average life of our amortizable intangible assets was 13.2 years.

Note 7.  Integration Program

Our combination with Cadbury has the potential for meaningful synergies and cost savings. We expect to recognize annual cost savings of at least $750 million by the end of the third year following completion of the acquisition. Additionally, we expect to create revenue synergies from investments in distribution, marketing and product development. In order to achieve these cost savings and synergies, we expect to incur total integration charges of approximately $1.5 billion in the first three years following the acquisition to combine and integrate the two businesses (the “Integration Program”).

Integration Program costs include the costs associated with combining our operations with Cadbury’s and are separate from the costs related to the acquisition. We incurred charges under the Integration Program of $112 million for the three months and $352 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, and $92 million for the three months and $284 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these charges within selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of sales primarily within our Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segments as well as general corporate expenses. Since the inception of the Integration Program, we have incurred approximately $1.0 billion of the $1.5 billion in expected charges.

Within our Integration Program, we include certain costs along with exit and disposal costs that are directly attributable to those activities although they do not qualify for treatment as exit or disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These costs, which we commonly refer to as other project costs or implementation costs, generally include the integration and reorganization of operations and facilities, the discontinuance of certain product lines and the incremental expenses related to the closure of facilities. Management believes the disclosure and inclusion of these charges provides readers of our financial statements greater transparency to the total costs of our Integration Program.

Our U.S. plans also incurred a $5 million curtailment expense in the first quarter of 2010 related to the divestiture of our Frozen Pizza business.

Employer Contributions:

We make contributions to our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, primarily to the extent that they are tax deductible and do not generate an excise tax liability. During the first nine months of 2011, we contributed $536 million to our U.S. plans and $248 million to our non-U.S. plans. Based on current tax law, we plan to make further contributions of approximately $5 million to our U.S. plans and approximately $150 million to our non-U.S. plans during the remainder of 2011. However, our actual contributions may differ due to many factors, including changes in tax and other benefit laws, or significant differences between expected and actual pension asset performance or interest rates.

Level 2 financial assets and liabilities consist of foreign exchange forwards and currency swaps; commodity forwards, and options; and interest rate swaps. Foreign currency contracts are valued using an income approach based on observable market forward rates less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Commodity derivatives are valued using an income approach based on the observable market commodity index prices less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. Our 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 observable market interest rate curve. Our calculation of the fair value of financial instruments takes into consideration the risk of nonperformance, including counterparty credit risk.

Legal Proceedings:

We routinely are involved in legal proceedings, claims and governmental inspections or investigations (“Legal Matters”) arising in the ordinary course of our business.

Other information regarding Legal Matters is available in the Legal Proceedings discussions in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and is incorporated by reference into this report.

While we cannot predict with certainty the results of any Legal Matters in which we are currently involved, we do not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve any of these matters will have a material effect on our financial results.

Third-Party Guarantees:

We have third-party guarantees primarily covering the long-term obligations of our vendors. As part of those transactions, we guarantee that third parties will make contractual payments or achieve performance measures. At September 30, 2011, the carrying amount of our third-party guarantees on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and the maximum potential payment under these guarantees was $22 million. Substantially all of these guarantees expire at various times through 2018.

As of January 1, 2011, our unrecognized tax benefits were $1,281 million. If we had recognized all of these benefits, the net impact on our income tax provision would have been $1,062 million. Our unrecognized tax benefits increased $245 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 for additions based on prior year tax positions and current year tax positions, partially offset by decreases from positions taken during prior periods and adjustments for currency. As of September 30, 2011, our unrecognized tax benefits were $1,526 million. If we had recognized all of these benefits, the net impact on our income tax provision would have been $1,304 million.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $160 – $200 million during the next 12 months due to audit settlements and the expiration of statutes of limitations in various jurisdictions.

We include accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in our tax provision. As of January 1, 2011, we had $246 million of accrued interest and penalties. The increase in accrued interest and penalties during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $26 million.

Our income tax returns are regularly examined by various federal, state and foreign tax authorities. The U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for all tax periods beginning with the 2004 tax year. The IRS is currently examining our 2004 – 2006 tax returns and we expect this examination to close during 2012. Our income tax filings are also currently under examination by taxing authorities in various U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions have statutes of limitations generally ranging from three to five years, however these statutes are often extended by mutual agreement with the tax authorities. Years still open to examination by foreign tax authorities in major jurisdictions include (earliest open tax year in parentheses): Germany (1999), Brazil (2005), Canada (2003), Spain (2002), France (2006), United Kingdom (2006), Australia (2008), Russia (2004) and India (2003).

Note 15.  Segment Reporting

We manufacture and market packaged food products, including snacks, beverages, cheese, convenient meals and various packaged grocery products. We manage and report operating results through three geographic units: Kraft Foods North America, Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets. We manage the operations of Kraft Foods North America and Kraft Foods Europe by product category and we manage the operations of Kraft Foods Developing Markets by location. Our reportable segments are U.S. Beverages, U.S. Cheese, U.S. Convenient Meals, U.S. Grocery, U.S. Snacks, Canada & N.A. Foodservice, Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets.

Management uses segment operating income to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. We believe it is appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze segment performance and trends. Segment operating income excludes unrealized gains and losses on hedging activities (which are a component of cost of sales), certain components of our U.S. pension plan cost (which are a component of cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses), general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses) and amortization of intangibles for all periods presented. We exclude the unrealized gains and losses on hedging activities from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of our segment operating results. Once realized, the gains and losses on hedging activities are recorded within segment operating results. We exclude certain components of our U.S. pension plan cost from segment operating income because we centrally manage pension plan funding decisions and the determination of discount rate, expected rate of return on plan assets and other actuarial assumptions. Therefore, we allocate only the service cost component of our U.S. pension plan expense to segment operating income. Furthermore, we centrally manage interest and other expense, net. Accordingly, we do not present these items by segment because they are excluded from the segment profitability measure reviewed by management.

On March 1, 2011, the Starbucks Coffee Company (“Starbucks”), without our authorization and in what we contend is a violation and breach of our agreements with Starbucks, took control of the Starbucks packaged coffee business (“Starbucks CPG business”) in grocery stores and other channels, after alleging Kraft had breached the CPG Agreements. The dispute is pending in Arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, where we are seeking appropriate remedies, including but not limited to payment of the Fair Market Value of the Agreement plus the premium the agreements specify and with Starbucks counterclaiming for unspecified damages. The results of the Starbucks CPG business were included primarily in our U.S. Beverage and Canada and N.A. Foodservice segments through March 1, 2011.

We incurred charges under the Integration Program of $112 million for the three months and $352 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, and $92 million for the three months and $284 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these charges within selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of sales primarily within our Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segments as well as general corporate expenses.

The increase in general corporate expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was due primarily to the timing of certain selling, general and administrative expenses. The decrease in general corporate expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was due primarily to Cadbury acquisition-related transaction fees in the prior year.

We reversed $11 million of previously accrued costs savings initiative charges during the three months and $34 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. We recorded these reversals, which were primarily related to severance charges for previously announced and planned position eliminations that did not occur, in operations, primarily within selling, general and administrative expenses across all reportable business segments, except Kraft Foods Europe. We incurred charges associated with our cost savings initiatives of $17 million for the three months and $93 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Net revenues by consumer sector, which includes Kraft macaroni and cheese dinners in the Convenient Meals sector and the separation of Canada & N.A. Foodservice, Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets into sector components, were:

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Description of the Company

We manufacture and market packaged food products, including snacks, beverages, cheese, convenient meals and various packaged grocery products. We have operations in more than 75 countries and sell our products in approximately 170 countries.

Proposed Spin-Off Transaction

On August 4, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors intends to create two independent public companies: (i) a global snacks business (the “Global Snacks Business”) and (ii) a North American grocery business (the “North American Grocery Business”). The Global Snacks Business will consist of our current Kraft Foods Europe and Developing Markets segments as well as our North American snack and confectionary brands. The North American Grocery Business will primarily consist of our current U.S. Beverages, Cheese, Convenient Meals and Grocery segments, grocery-related categories in our Canada & N.A. Foodservice segment as well as the Planters and Corn Nuts brands and businesses. We expect to create these companies through a U.S. tax-free spin-off of the North American Grocery Business to our shareholders.

The transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals, a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service to ensure the U.S. tax-free status of the spin-off, execution of intercompany agreements, further diligence as appropriate and final approval from our Board of Directors. While our current target is to complete the spin-off before year-end 2012, we cannot assure that the spin-off will be completed on the anticipated timeline or that the terms of the spin-off will not change. See “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” for certain risk factors relating to the proposed spin-off transaction. The disclosures within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are on a consolidated Kraft Foods Inc. basis and do not take into account the proposed spin-off of the North American Grocery Business.

Summary of Results

Net revenues increased 11.5% to $13.2 billion in the third quarter of 2011 and increased 12.0% to $39.7 billion in the first nine months of 2011 as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Organic net revenues increased 8.4% to $12.7 billion in the third quarter of 2011 and increased 6.7% to $37.2 billion in the first nine months of 2011 as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods increased 20.9% to $0.52 in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $0.43 for the same period in the prior year. Diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods decreased 27.3% to $1.52 in the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $2.09 for the same period in the prior year. The first nine months of 2010 included $0.96 related to discontinued operations from our divestiture of our North American frozen pizza business. Diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods from continuing operations increased 34.5% to $1.52 in the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $1.13 for the same period in the prior year.

Operating EPS attributable to Kraft Foods increased 23.4% to $0.58 in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $0.47 for the same period in the prior year. Operating EPS attributable to Kraft Foods increased 10.3% to $1.72 in the first nine months of 2011 as compared to $1.56 for the same period in the prior year.

Discussion and Analysis

Items Affecting Comparability of Financial Results

Acquisitions and Divestitures

Cadbury Acquisition and related Divestitures:

On February 2, 2010, we acquired 71.73% of Cadbury Limited (“Cadbury”) and as of June 1, 2010, we owned 100% of all outstanding Cadbury Shares. The Cadbury acquisition was valued at $18,547 million, or $17,503 million net of cash and cash equivalents.

As part of our Cadbury acquisition, we expensed and incurred transaction-related fees of $2 million for the three months and $217 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses. We also incurred acquisition financing fees of $96 million in the first quarter of 2010. We recorded these expenses within interest and other expense, net.

The EU Commission required, as a condition of our Cadbury acquisition, that we divest certain Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania. In the third quarter of 2010, we completed the sale of the assets of the confectionery operations in Poland and Romania. The total proceeds from the divestitures were $342 million and the impacts of these divestitures were reflected as adjustments to the purchase price allocations.

Cadbury contributed net revenues of $6,376 million and net earnings of $369 million from February 2, 2010 through September 30, 2010. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents Kraft Foods’ consolidated information as if Cadbury had been acquired on January 1, 2010. These amounts were calculated after conversion to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), applying our accounting policies, and adjusting Cadbury’s results to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied from January 1, 2010, together with the consequential tax effects. These adjustments also reflect the additional interest expense incurred on the debt to finance the purchase and the divestitures of the Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania.

Accordingly, the results of the Frozen Pizza business have been reflected as discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated statement of earnings in the prior-period results.

Integration Program

Our combination with Cadbury has the potential for meaningful synergies and cost savings. We expect to recognize annual cost savings of at least $750 million by the end of the third year following completion of the acquisition. Additionally, we expect to create revenue synergies from investments in distribution, marketing and product development. In order to achieve these cost savings and synergies, we expect to incur total integration charges of approximately $1.5 billion in the first three years following the acquisition to combine and integrate the two businesses (the “Integration Program”).

Integration Program costs include the costs associated with combining our operations with Cadbury’s and are separate from the costs related to the acquisition. We incurred charges under the Integration Program of $112 million for the three months and $352 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, and $92 million for the three months and $284 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these charges within selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of sales primarily within our Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segments as well as general corporate expenses. Since the inception of the Integration Program, we have incurred approximately $1.0 billion of the $1.5 billion in expected charges. At September 30, 2011, we had an accrual of $333 million related to the Integration Program.

Within our Integration Program, we include certain costs along with exit and disposal costs that are directly attributable to those activities although they do not qualify for treatment as exit or disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These costs, which we commonly refer to as other project costs or implementation costs, generally include the integration and reorganization of operations and facilities, the discontinuance of certain product lines and the incremental expenses related to the closure of facilities. Management believes the disclosure and inclusion of these charges provides readers of our financial statements greater transparency to the total costs of our Integration Program.

Starbucks CPG Business

On March 1, 2011, the Starbucks Coffee Company (“Starbucks”), without our authorization and in what we contend is a violation and breach of our agreements with Starbucks, took control of the Starbucks packaged coffee business (“Starbucks CPG business”) in grocery stores and other channels, after alleging Kraft had breached the CPG Agreements. The dispute is pending in Arbitration in Chicago, Illinois with Kraft seeking appropriate remedies, including but not limited to payment of the Fair Market Value of the Agreement plus the premium the agreements specify and with Starbucks counterclaiming for unspecified damages. The results of the Starbucks CPG business were included primarily in our U.S. Beverage and Canada and N.A. Foodservice segments through March 1, 2011.

Accounting Calendar Changes in 2011 and 2010

The majority of our operating subsidiaries report results as of the last Saturday of the period. A portion of our international operating subsidiaries report results as of the last calendar day of the period or two weeks prior to the last Saturday of the period.

In the second quarter of 2011, we changed the consolidation date for certain operations of our Kraft Foods Europe segment and operations in certain regions of our Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment [Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa (“CEEMA”)]. Previously, these operations primarily reported results two weeks prior to the end of the period. Now, our Kraft Foods Europe segment reports results as of the last Saturday of each period. Our operations in Latin America and certain operations in CEEMA report results as of the last calendar day of the period. These changes resulted in a favorable impact to net revenues of $360 million and a favorable impact of $50 million to operating income.

In the second quarter of 2010, we changed the consolidation date for certain European biscuits operations within our Kraft Foods Europe segment and certain operations in Asia Pacific within our Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment. Previously, these operations primarily reported period-end results one month prior to the end of the period and moved to reporting results two weeks prior to the last Saturday of the period. These changes resulted in a favorable impact to net revenues of $70 million and had an insignificant impact on operating income.

23


We believe these changes are preferable and will improve business planning and financial reporting by better matching the close dates of the operating subsidiaries within our Kraft Foods Europe segment and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segment and by bringing the reporting date closer to the period-end date. As the impact to prior-period results was not material, we have not revised prior-period results.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 27.2% in the third quarter of 2011 and 29.5% in the first nine months of 2011. The 2011 third quarter effective tax rate was favorably impacted by net discrete items totaling $111 million, primarily from the revaluation of U.K. deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from tax legislation enacted during the quarter that reduced U.K. corporate income tax rates, and the reversal of valuation allowances on certain foreign deferred tax assets that are now expected to be realized. For the first nine months of 2011, our effective tax rate was favorably impacted by net discrete items totaling $168 million, primarily from the revaluation of U.K. deferred tax assets and liabilities in the third quarter, the reversal of valuation allowances on certain foreign deferred tax assets in the third quarter and the net favorable impact from various U.S. federal, U.S. state and foreign tax audit developments year to date.

Our effective tax rate was 30.0% in the third quarter of 2010 and 33.5% in the first nine months of 2010. Our third quarter 2010 effective tax rate included net tax benefits of $68 million, primarily resulting from several items in our international operations. For the first nine months of 2010, our effective tax rate included net tax benefits of $100 million. These net benefits were primarily due to the second quarter resolution of a federal tax audit, the tax impacts of the highly inflationary accounting adjustments related to our Venezuelan subsidiaries, and the resolution of several items in our international operations, partially offset by a $137 million write-off of deferred tax assets as a result of the U.S. health care legislation enacted in March 2010.

Organic net revenues growth was driven by higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix. Higher net pricing was reflected across all reportable business segments as we increased pricing to offset higher input costs. Favorable volume/mix was driven primarily by higher shipments in Kraft Foods Developing Markets and Kraft Foods Europe. Favorable foreign currency increased net revenues by $535 million, due primarily to the strength of the euro, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Brazilian real, British pound, Swiss franc and Russian ruble versus the U.S. dollar. These gains were partially offset by the impact of divestitures (including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business).

Higher pricing outpaced increased input costs during the quarter. The increase in input costs was driven by significantly higher raw material costs, partially offset by lower manufacturing costs due to our end-to-end cost management program. Favorable volume/mix was driven by strong contributions from Kraft Foods Developing Markets and Kraft Foods Europe, partially offset by a net decline for the segments within Kraft Foods North America. Total selling, general and administrative expenses increased $108 million over the third quarter of 2010. Excluding the impacts of divestitures (including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business), foreign currency and our Cadbury acquisition (including Integration Program and acquisition-related costs), selling, general and administrative expenses increased $33 million from the third quarter of 2010. Favorable foreign currency increased operating income by $73 million, due primarily to the strength of the euro, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and Brazilian real versus the U.S. dollar. The impact of divestitures, including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business and the 2010 divestitures of certain Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania, decreased operating income by $36 million. The change in unrealized gains/losses on hedging activities also decreased operating income by $20 million, as we recognized losses of $4 million in the third quarter of 2011, versus gains of $16 million in the third quarter of 2010. As a result of the net effect of these drivers, operating income margin was unchanged, at 12.8% in both the third quarter of 2010 and the third quarter of 2011. Our operating income margin was flat as overhead leverage offset the decline in gross profit margin which reflected the impact of the higher revenue base on the margin calculation.

Organic net revenues growth was driven by higher net pricing and favorable volume/mix. Higher net pricing was reflected across all reportable business segments as we increased pricing to offset higher input costs. Favorable volume/mix was driven primarily by higher shipments in Kraft Foods Developing Markets and Kraft Foods Europe. Favorable foreign currency increased net revenues by $1,343 million, due primarily to the strength of the euro, Brazilian real, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, British pound, Swiss franc, and Swedish krona versus the U.S. dollar. The Cadbury acquisition, due to the incremental January 2011 operating results, added $697 million in net revenues. Excluding the effects of foreign currency, accounting calendar changes added $316 million in net revenues in the first nine months of 2011, as compared to $63 million in the first nine months of 2010. These gains were partially offset by the impact of divestitures (including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business).

(2) Impact of acquisition reflects the incremental January 2011 operating results from our Cadbury acquisition.

Higher pricing outpaced increased input costs during the first nine months of 2011. The increase in input costs was driven by significantly higher raw material costs, as manufacturing costs were essentially flat. Favorable volume/mix was driven by strong contributions from Kraft Foods Developing Markets and Kraft Foods Europe, partially offset by a net decline for the segments within Kraft Foods North America. Total selling, general and administrative expenses increased $266 million from the first nine months of 2010. Excluding the impacts of divestitures (including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business), foreign currency, accounting calendar changes and our Cadbury acquisition (including Integration Program and acquisition-related costs), selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $7 million from the first nine months of 2010. The Cadbury acquisition, due to the incremental January 2011 operating results, increased operating income by $83 million. Favorable foreign currency increased operating income by $205 million, due primarily to the strength of the euro, Brazilian real, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and British pound versus the U.S. dollar. Accounting calendar changes added $34 million in operating income, as we realized operating income from accounting calendar changes of $44 million (excluding the effects of foreign currency) in the first nine months of 2011, versus $10 million in the first nine months of 2010. The impact of divestitures, including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business and the 2010 divestitures of certain Cadbury confectionery operations in Poland and Romania, decreased operating income by $94 million. The change in unrealized gains/losses on hedging activities decreased operating income by $42 million, as we recognized losses of $42 million in the first nine months of 2011, versus no net gain or loss in the first nine months of 2010. As a result of the net effect of these drivers, operating income margin increased, from 12.5% in the first nine months of 2010 to 13.0% in the first nine months of 2011. The margin gain was driven primarily by lower corporate expenses reflecting lower acquisition-related costs and overhead leverage, which more than offset the decline in gross profit margin, driven primarily by the impact of the higher revenue base on the margin calculation.

As discussed in Note 15, Segment Reporting , management uses segment operating income to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. We believe it is appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze segment performance and trends. Segment operating income excludes unrealized gains and losses on hedging activities (which are a component of cost of sales), certain components of our U.S. pension plan cost (which is a component of cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses), general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses) and amortization of intangibles for all periods presented. We exclude the unrealized gains and losses on hedging activities from segment operating income in order to provide better transparency of our segment operating results. Once realized, we record the gains and losses on hedging activities within segment operating results. We exclude certain components of our U.S. pension plan cost from segment operating income because we centrally manage pension plan funding decisions and the determination of discount rate, expected rate of return on plan assets and other actuarial assumptions. Therefore, we allocate only the service cost component of our U.S. pension plan expense to segment operating income.

On March 1, 2011, the Starbucks Coffee Company (“Starbucks”), without our authorization and in what we contend is a violation and breach of our agreements with Starbucks, took control of the Starbucks packaged coffee business (“Starbucks CPG business”) in grocery stores and other channels, after alleging Kraft had breached the CPG Agreements. The dispute is pending in Arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, where we are seeking appropriate remedies, including but not limited to payment of the Fair Market Value of the Agreement plus the premium the agreements specify and with Starbucks counterclaiming for unspecified damages. The results of the Starbucks CPG business were included primarily in our U.S. Beverage and Canada and N.A. Foodservice segments through March 1, 2011.

We incurred charges under the Integration Program of $112 million for the three months and $352 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, and $92 million for the three months and $284 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. We recorded these charges within selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of sales primarily within our Kraft Foods Europe and Kraft Foods Developing Markets segments as well as general corporate expenses.

The increase in general corporate expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was due primarily to the timing of certain selling, general and administrative expenses. The decrease in general corporate expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was due primarily to Cadbury acquisition-related transaction fees in the prior year.

We reversed $11 million of previously accrued costs savings initiative charges during the three months and $34 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. These reversals primarily relate to severance charges for previously announced and planned position eliminations that did not occur. They were recorded primarily within selling, general and administrative expenses and across all reportable business segments, except Kraft Foods Europe. We incurred charges associated with our cost savings initiatives of $17 million for the three months and $93 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Higher net pricing was due primarily to input cost-driven pricing in coffee. Favorable volume/mix was driven primarily by the introduction of MiO liquid concentrate and higher shipments in ready-to-drink beverages, primarily Capri Sun and Kool-Aid pouches, Tassimo coffee and powdered beverages, which were partially offset by lower shipments in Maxwell House and Gevalia coffee.

Net revenues decreased $182 million (7.4%), due to the impact of the Starbucks CPG business cessation (11.7 pp) and unfavorable volume/mix (1.9 pp), partially offset by higher net pricing (6.2 pp). Unfavorable volume/mix was driven primarily by lower shipments in mainstream coffee, primarily Maxwell House, Gevalia coffee and Country Time and Kool-Aid powdered beverages. These factors were partially offset by the introduction of MiO liquid concentrate and higher shipments in ready-to-drink beverages, primarily Capri Sun and Kool-Aid, Tassimo coffee and Tang powdered beverages. Higher net pricing was due primarily to input cost-driven pricing in coffee.

Net revenues increased $85 million (3.4%), due to higher net pricing (5.6 pp), partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix (2.2 pp). Higher net pricing was reflected across most grocery categories including spoonable dressings, Kraft macaroni and cheese dinners, dry packaged desserts and ready-to-eat desserts. Unfavorable volume/mix was driven by lower shipments, primarily spoonable dressings, ready-to-eat desserts, dessert toppings and dry packaged desserts, partially offset by the introduction of Planters peanut butter and higher shipments in Kraft macaroni and cheese dinners.

Segment operating income increased $76 million (8.6%), due primarily to higher net pricing, lower manufacturing costs, lower advertising and consumer promotion costs and lower other selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix and higher raw material costs.

Three Months Ended September 30:

Net revenues increased $429 million (16.1%), due to favorable foreign currency (10.9 pp), higher net pricing (4.0 pp) and favorable volume/mix (1.2 pp). Favorable foreign currency primarily reflected the strength of the euro, British pound, Swiss franc and Swedish krona against the U.S. dollar. Higher net pricing was due primarily to input cost-driven pricing in coffee and cheese. Favorable volume/mix was due primarily to higher shipments in biscuits, chocolate and cheese, partially offset by lower shipments in coffee, gum and candy.

Segment operating income increased $2 million (0.6%), due primarily to higher net pricing, favorable volume/mix, favorable foreign currency, lower other selling, general and administrative expenses and lower manufacturing costs, mostly offset by higher raw material costs, higher Integration Program costs and higher advertising and consumer promotion costs.

Favorable foreign currency primarily reflected the strength of the euro, British pound, Swiss franc and Swedish krona against the U.S. dollar. Higher net pricing was reflected across most major categories. The change in the consolidation date for certain operations increased net revenues. Favorable volume/mix was due primarily to higher shipments in chocolate, cheese and biscuits.

Segment operating income increased $101 million (10.6%), due primarily to higher net pricing, lower manufacturing costs, lower other selling, general and administrative expenses, favorable foreign currency, favorable volume/mix, the impact of accounting calendar changes, our Cadbury acquisition due to the incremental January 2011 operating results and lower acquisition-related costs. These favorable factors were partially offset by higher raw material costs and higher Integration Program costs.

Venezuela – We account for our Venezuelan subsidiaries under highly inflationary accounting rules, which principally means all transactions are recorded in U.S. dollars. Venezuela has two exchange rates: the official rate and the government-regulated Transaction System for Foreign Currency Denominated Securities (“SITME”) rate. We used both the official rate and the SITME rate to translate our Venezuelan operations into U.S. dollars, based on the nature of the operations of each individual subsidiary.

We recorded $11 million of favorable foreign currency impacts relating to highly inflationary accounting in Venezuela during the first nine months of 2011 and approximately $85 million of unfavorable foreign currency impacts during the first nine months of 2010. The 2010 loss included a one-time impact to translate cash of $34 million that we previously carried at the secondary market exchange rate. Upon the change to highly inflationary accounting in January 2010, we were required to translate those U.S. dollars on hand using the official rate.

We do not expect our 2011 full year operating results to be significantly impacted by the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.

Commodity Trends

We purchase large quantities of commodities, including dairy, coffee, cocoa, wheat, corn products, soybean and vegetable oils, nuts, meat products, and sugar and other sweeteners. In addition, we use significant quantities of plastic, glass and cardboard to package our products, and natural gas for our factories and warehouses. We continuously monitor worldwide supply and cost trends of these commodities so we can act quickly to procure ingredients and packaging materials needed for production.

During the first nine months of 2011, our aggregate commodity costs increased primarily as a result of coffee, dairy, grains and oils, packaging material costs and meat. In the first nine months of 2011, our commodity costs were approximately $1.7 billion higher than in the first nine months of 2010. We expect the price volatility and higher cost environment to continue over the remainder of the year.

Liquidity

We believe that our cash from operations, our existing $4.5 billion revolving credit facility (which supports our commercial paper program) and our authorized long-term financing will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, future contractual obligations and payment of our anticipated quarterly dividends. We continue to use our commercial paper program and primarily uncommitted international credit lines for daily funding requirements. We also use short-term intercompany loans from foreign subsidiaries to improve financial flexibility. Overall, we do not expect any negative effects to our funding sources that would have a material effect on our liquidity.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities:

During the first nine months of 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.7 billion, compared with $1.2 billion provided in the first nine months of 2010. The increase in operating cash flows primarily relates to the prior-year payment of taxes in connection with the 2010 Frozen Pizza divestiture and increased earnings from continuing operations, partially offset by increased contributions to our pension plans and the timing of receivables and increased inventory levels.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities:

During the first nine months of 2011, net cash used in investing activities was $1.2 billion, compared with $6.8 billion used in the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in cash used in investing activities primarily relates to $9.8 billion in cash payments in the prior year related to the 2010 Cadbury acquisition partially offset by $3.7 billion in proceeds from the sale of the Frozen Pizza business and $0.3 billion in proceeds from the divestitures in Poland and Romania.

Capital expenditures, which were funded by operating activities, were $1.3 billion in the first nine months of 2011, compared with $1.0 billion in the first nine months of 2010. We expect full-year capital expenditures to be approximately $1.9 billion, including capital expenditures required for systems investments and the Integration Program. We expect to fund these expenditures from operations.

Net Cash (Used in) / Provided by Financing Activities:

During the first nine months of 2011, net cash used in financing activities was $843 million, compared with $5.9 billion provided in the first nine months of 2010. The net cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of 2011 primarily relates to $1.5 billion in dividends paid, partially offset by $522 million in proceeds from primarily stock option exercises. The net cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2010 primarily related to proceeds from our long-term debt issuance of $9.4 billion, partially offset by $1.3 billion in net repayments of short-term borrowings, $1.7 billion in dividends paid and $512 million in long-term debt repayments.

39


Borrowing Arrangements:

On April 1, 2011, we entered into an agreement for a $4.5 billion four-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The agreement replaced our former revolving credit agreement, which was terminated upon the signing of the new agreement. We intend to use the revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, including for working capital purposes, and to support our commercial paper issuances. No amounts have been drawn on the facility.

The revolving credit facility agreement includes a covenant that we maintain a minimum total shareholders’ equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive earnings / (losses) and non-controlling interest, of at least $28.6 billion. At September 30, 2011, our total shareholders’ equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive losses and non-controlling interest, was $41.5 billion. We expect to continue to meet this covenant. The revolving credit facility agreement also contains customary representations, covenants and events of default. However, there are no other financial covenants, credit rating triggers or provisions that could require us to post collateral as security.

In addition to the above, some of our international subsidiaries maintain primarily uncommitted credit lines to meet short-term working capital needs. Collectively, these credit lines amounted to $2.3 billion at September 30, 2011. In the aggregate, borrowings on these lines were $232 million at September 30, 2011 and $267 million at December 31, 2010.

Debt:

Our total debt was $28.9 billion at September 30, 2011 and $28.7 billion at December 31, 2010. Our debt-to-capitalization ratio was 0.44 at September 30, 2011 and 0.44 at December 31, 2010. At September 30, 2011, the weighted-average term of our outstanding long-term debt was 9.1 years.

We expect to continue to comply with our long-term debt covenants. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for further details of these debt covenants.

In the next twelve months, $4.8 billion of long-term debt becomes due as follows: $1.1 billion in November 2011, 2.0 billion (approximately $2.7 billion) in March 2012, $900 million in June 2012 and C$150 million (approximately $146 million) due in August 2012. We expect to fund these repayments with cash from operations, the issuance of commercial paper and the issuance of additional debt.

From time to time we refinance long-term and short-term debt. The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt and the proportionate amount of each varies as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. As of September 30, 2011, we had $12 billion remaining in long-term financing authority from our Board of Directors.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

There were no material changes to our off-balance sheet arrangements and aggregate contractual obligations disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. We also do not expect a material change in the effect these arrangements and obligations will have on our liquidity. See Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies , for a discussion of guarantees.

Equity and Dividends

Stock Plans:

In January 2011, we granted 1.5 million shares of stock in connection with our long-term incentive plan, and the market value per share was $31.62 on the date of grant. In February 2011, as part of our annual equity program, we issued 2.6 million shares of restricted and deferred stock to eligible employees, and the market value per restricted or deferred share was $31.83 on the date of grant. In aggregate, we issued 4.7 million restricted and deferred shares during the first nine months of 2011, including those issued as part of our long-term incentive plan, with a weighted-average market value per share of $31.83.

40


In February 2011, as part of our annual equity program, we also granted 15.8 million stock options to eligible employees at an exercise price of $31.83. In aggregate, we granted 16.3 million stock options in the first nine months of 2011 with a weighted-average market value per share of $31.80.

Dividends:

We paid dividends of $1,535 million in the first nine months of 2011 and $1,664 million in the first nine months of 2010. The 7.8% decrease is due to a dividend payment of $224 million in the prior year related to the Cadbury acquisition. The present annualized dividend rate is $1.16 per share. The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and depends on various factors, including our net earnings, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant to its analysis and decision making.

Outlook

We increased our expectations for organic net revenue growth from at least 5 percent to at least 6 percent reflecting strong results in the third quarter. We increased our Operating EPS guidance from at least $2.25 to at least $2.27 as we expect strong operating momentum to continue and a neutral impact from currency in the fourth quarter as recent volatility has made such forecasts difficult.

Please see the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below.

Significant Accounting Estimates

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our significant accounting estimates are described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There were no changes in our accounting policies in the current period that had a material impact on our financial statements.

Contingencies

See Note 12, Commitments and Contingencies , and Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings for a discussion of contingencies.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to budget, make operating and strategic decisions and evaluate our performance. We have disclosed the following measures so that you have the same financial data that management uses with the intention of assisting you in making comparisons to our historical operating results and analyzing our underlying performance.

Our management believes that the presentation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides you with a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting Kraft Foods than could be obtained absent these disclosures. Because non-GAAP financial measures may vary among other companies, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in the Consolidated Results of Operations section may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure. You should carefully evaluate the following tables reconciling U.S. GAAP reported figures to non-GAAP financial measures.

41


We use the non-U.S. GAAP financial measure “organic net revenues” and corresponding growth ratios. The difference between “organic net revenues” and “net revenues,” which is the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is that organic net revenues excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures (including for reporting purposes the Starbucks CPG business), currency and accounting calendar changes. Our management believes that organic net revenues better reflects the underlying growth from the ongoing activities of our business and provides improved comparability of results because they exclude the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which are not under our control, and also exclude the one-time impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and accounting calendar changes from net revenues. The limitation of this measure is that it excludes items that have an impact on net revenues. The best way that this limitation can be addressed is by using organic net revenues in combination with our U.S. GAAP reported net revenues.

We use the non-U.S. GAAP financial measure “underlying operating income” and corresponding growth ratios. The difference between “underlying operating income” and “operating income,” which is the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is that underlying operating income excludes costs related to: the Integration Program and acquisition-related costs, including transaction advisory fees, U.K. stamp taxes and the impact of the Cadbury inventory revaluation. Our management believes that underlying operating income provides improved comparability of results because it excludes certain impacts related to the Cadbury acquisition from operating income.

We use the non-U.S. GAAP financial measure “Operating EPS” and corresponding growth ratios. The difference between “Operating EPS” and “diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods from continuing operations,” which is the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is that Operating EPS excludes costs related to: the Integration Program; acquisition-related costs, including transaction advisory fees, U.K. stamp taxes and the impact of the Cadbury inventory revaluation; acquisition-related financing fees, including hedging and foreign currency impacts associated with the Cadbury acquisition and other fees associated with the Cadbury Bridge Facility; and the impact of a deferred tax charge resulting from the recently enacted U.S. health care legislation. Our management believes Operating EPS provides improved comparability of results because it excludes certain impacts related to the Cadbury acquisition and other one-time impacts from earnings per share. The limitation of this measure is that it excludes items that have an impact on diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods from continuing operations. The best way that this limitation can be addressed is by using Operating EPS in combination with our U.S. GAAP reported diluted EPS attributable to Kraft Foods from continuing operations.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to create two independent companies, continued volatility and increase in commodity costs, pricing actions, increased competition, the continuing weak economic environment, our indebtedness and our ability to pay our indebtedness, risks from operating globally and tax law changes. For additional information on these and other factors that could affect our forward-looking statements, see our risk factors, as they may be amended from time to time, set forth in our filings with the SEC, including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

As a global operation, we use certain financial instruments to manage our foreign currency exchange rate, commodity price and interest rate risks. We monitor and manage these exposures as part of our overall risk management program. Our risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of these markets may have on our operating results. We maintain foreign currency, commodity price and interest rate risk management policies that principally use derivative instruments to reduce significant, unanticipated earnings fluctuations that may arise from volatility in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. We also sell commodity futures to unprice future purchase commitments, and we occasionally use related futures to cross-hedge a commodity exposure. We are not a party to leveraged derivatives and, by policy, do not use financial instruments for speculative purposes. Refer to Note 11, Financial Instruments , for further information on the types of derivative instruments we used to hedge our exposures. There were no significant changes in the types of derivative instruments we use to hedge those exposures since December 31, 2010.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, together with our CEO and CFO, evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011. We determined that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

We routinely are involved in legal proceedings, claims and governmental inspections or investigations (“Legal Matters”) arising in the ordinary course of our business.

Other information regarding Legal Matters is available in the Legal Proceedings discussions in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and is incorporated by reference into this report.

While we cannot predict with certainty the results of these or any other Legal Matters in which we are currently involved, we do not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve any of these matters will have a material effect on our financial results.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 contains a detailed discussion of risk factors that could materially adversely affect our business, our operating results, or our financial condition. The risk factor described below is in addition to those risk factors.

The proposed spin-off may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, if at all, and may not achieve the intended results.

Unanticipated developments could delay, prevent or otherwise adversely affect the proposed spin-off of the North American Grocery Business, including possible problems or delays in obtaining various regulatory and tax approvals or clearances and disruptions in general market conditions, among other things. In addition, consummation of the proposed spin-off will require final approval from our Board of Directors. Therefore, we cannot assure that we will be able to complete the spin-off on the terms or on the timeline that we announced, if at all.

We will incur significant expenses in connection with the spin-off. In addition, completion of the proposed spin-off will require significant amounts of management’s time and effort which may divert management’s attention from other aspects of our business operations.

Further, if the spin-off is completed, it may not achieve the intended results. Any such difficulties could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The following activity represents shares tendered to us by employees who used shares to exercise options, and who used shares to pay the related taxes for grants of restricted and deferred stock that vested. Accordingly, these are non-cash transactions.
