Adjustments to Calculate Compensation Actually Paid to PEO (Column (c)) and Average Compensation Actually Paid to Other NEOs (Column (e))

The table below describes the adjustments, each of which is required by SEC rules, to calculate CAP from the SCT Total of our PEO (column (b)) and our Other NEOs (column (d)). The SCT Total and CAP do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our executives during the applicable years, but rather are amounts determined in accordance with Item 402(v).

To determine the value of stock options included in CAP, the lattice valuation model was used, which differs from the Black-Scholes valuation model that was used at grant date. The lattice valuation model was deemed most appropriate because it is better able to value stock options at varying levels of stock price relative to the option exercise price and is consistent with valuation methodologies permitted under GAAP.

Total Shareholder Return (Column (f); Column (g))

Total shareholder return assumes that dividends were reinvested on the day of issuance.

Peer Group Total Shareholder Return (Column (g))

The peer group used in this disclosure is the Dow Jones U.S. Food & Beverage Total Return Index, which is the same peer group used in Part II, Item 5 of our Form 10-K.

Net Income (Column (h))

Consolidated net income as reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income included in our Form 10-K.

Organic Revenue (non-GAAP) Growth (Column (i))

Organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth is referred to as “net operating revenue growth” in our Named Executive Officers’ incentive programs (see “Business Performance Factor” on page 52 in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis). Organic revenue growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or has otherwise been adjusted for the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and structural changes, as applicable, and the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Organic revenue (non-GAAP) growth was determined to be the most important financial performance measure linking CAP to Company performance for 2024 and was therefore selected as the 2024 “Company-Selected Measure” as defined in Item 402(v).

Equity Awards Adjustments, Footnote

CAP, as calculated in accordance with Item 402(v), reflects, among other items, adjustments to the fair value of equity awards during the years presented. Factors impacting the fair value of equity awards include the price of our Common Stock at year end, as well as the projected and actual achievement of performance goals. These adjustments contributed to the change in CAP reported year-over-year.
