1 Adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude special charges, net of tax. We consider items recorded in special charges, such as enterprise-wide restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, and acquisition-related restructuring, integration and transaction costs, to be of a non-recurring nature that is not indicative of ongoing operations. In addition, we have excluded certain impacts of the enterprise-wide restructuring plan on TRU Simulation + Training Canada Inc. (TRU Canada) that are not included within special charges, but are of a non-recurring nature and are not indicative of ongoing operations. At TRU Canada, an inventory charge is excluded as it relates to the write-down of inventory in connection with an action taken under the restructuring plan. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we reached a definitive agreement to sell TRU Canada, which resulted in the recognition of a tax benefit, and in the first quarter of 2021, TRU Canada was sold. The tax benefit and the after-tax gain are both excluded as they were incurred in connection with the enterprise-wide restructuring plan. The impact from the Tax Act is not considered to be indicative of ongoing operations, since they represent significant one-time adjustments.
2 Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions adjusts net cash from operating activities (GAAP) for the following:
  • Deducts capital expenditures and includes proceeds from insurance recoveries and the sale of property, plant and equipment to arrive at the net capital investment required to support ongoing manufacturing operations;
  • Excludes dividends received from Textron Financial Corporation (TFC) and capital contributions to TFC provided under the Support Agreement and debt agreements as these cash flows are not representative of manufacturing operations;
  • Adds back pension contributions as we consider our pension obligations to be debt-like liabilities. Additionally, these contributions can fluctuate significantly from period to period and we believe that they are not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations during the period.
While we believe this measure provides a focus on cash generated from manufacturing operations, before pension contributions, and may be used as an additional relevant measure of liquidity, it does not necessarily provide the amount available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations that are not deducted from the measure.
