Newell Rubbermaid Inc.  2010 Annual Report Operating income for 2009 was $274.7 million, or 11.6% of net sales, an increase of $56.4 million, or 25.8%, from $218.3 million, or 8.2% of net sales, for 2008.
The 340 basis point improvement in operating margin was primarily due to moderating input costs, product line exits and rationalizations and productivity improvements.
In the aggregate, these improvements contributed 450 basis points to the net expansion in operating margin and were partially offset by unfavorable mix and an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales.
Office Products Net sales for 2009 were $1,674.7 million, a decrease of $316.1 million, or 15.9%, from $1,990.8 million for 2008.
Core sales declined 6.5%, which was primarily attributable to weak consumer demand both domestically and internationally and inventory destocking at the retail level.
Reduced sales relating to product line exits and rationalizations and unfavorable foreign currency contributed an additional 6.0% and 3.4%, respectively, to the year-over-year decline.
Operating income for 2009 was $235.2 million, or 14.0% of net sales, an increase of $22.8 million, or 10.7%, from $212.4 million, or 10.7% of net sales for 2008.
The 330 basis point improvement in operating margin was primarily attributable to product line exits and rationalizations.
In constant currency, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2009 were comparable to 2008.
Tools, Hardware & Commercial Products Net sales for 2009 were $1,525.7 million, a decrease of $299.3 million, or 16.4%, from $1,825.0 million for 2008.
Core sales declined 15.8% as sales volumes were negatively impacted by inventory management by retail, commercial and industrial customers; continued softness in the residential construction market, both domestically and internationally; and sustained weakness in industrial and commercial channels.
Unfavorable foreign currency contributed an additional 2.0% decline, and the Technical Concepts acquisition increased sales $26.2 million, or 1.4%, versus the prior year.
Operating income for 2009 was $245.6 million, or 16.1% of net sales, a decrease of $26.1 million, or 9.6%, from $271.7 million, or 14.9% of net sales, for 2008.
The 120 basis point expansion in operating margin was primarily driven by the moderation of input costs compared to the prior year and improved product mix, which combined contributed 190 basis points to the expansion, as well as productivity gains, all of which were partially offset by the adverse impacts of lower production volumes.
The lower production volumes were primarily the result of aggressive management of inventory levels by the Company’s customers and lower sales resulting from weak demand.
In constant currency, SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2009 were comparable to 2008.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash Flows Cash and cash equivalents increased (decreased) as follows for the year ended December 31, (in millions):
## Table 0 ##
In the cash flow statement, the changes in operating assets and liabilities are presented excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the effects of acquisitions.
Accordingly, the amounts in the cash flow statement differ from changes in the operating assets and liabilities that are presented in the balance sheets.
Sources Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have included cash provided by operations, issuance of debt and use of available borrowing facilities.
Cash provided by operating activities for 2010 was $582.6 million compared to $602.8 million for 2009.
This reduction is primarily attributable to changes in working capital, specifically accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable, as net changes in working capital generated cash of $237.5 million in 2009, as the Company implemented initiatives to significantly reduce inventory in 2009 due to the global economic downturn.
The cash provided by net reductions in working capital in 2009 compared to a use of cash for working capital of $79.0 million in 2010.
The year-over-year decline in cash provided by working capital of $316.5 million was offset by the following items: ?
a $55.0 million increase in operating income; ?
an $11.2 million decline in cash paid for interest; ?
a $31.7 million decline in cash paid for income taxes; ?
a $25.0 million decline in voluntary contributions to the Company’s primary U. S.  defined benefit pension plan, from $75.0 million in 2009 to $50.0 million in 2010; and ?
$126.6 million of cash used in 2009 to settle foreign exchange contracts on intercompany financing arrangements, which is included in accrued liabilities and other in 2009, with similar settlements not occurring in 2010.

Capital expenditures were $222.9 million, $164.7 million and $153.3 million for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Cash Conversion Cycle The Company defines its cash conversion cycle as the sum of inventory and accounts receivable days outstanding (based on cost of products sold and net sales, respectively, for the most recent three-month period, including discontinued operations) minus accounts payable days outstanding (based on cost of products sold for the most recent three-month period, including discontinued operations) at the end of the year.
The following table depicts the Company’s cash conversion cycle at December 31, (in number of days):
## Table 2 ##
The Company’s cash conversion cycle is impacted by the seasonality of its businesses and generally tends to be longer in the first and second quarters, based on historical trends, due to inventory build-ups early in the year for seasonal sales activity and credit terms provided to customers.
The Company’s cash conversion cycle at December 31, 2011 approximated its cash conversion cycle at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
The Company has leveraged the implementation of SAP in North America to improve working capital, with a focus on reducing the number of days of inventory on hand.
The improvement in days of inventory on hand over the period from 2009 to 2011 was offset by an inventory build-up in late 2011 in advance of the SAP go-live in the European region planned for the first half of 2012 and increased safety stocks in North America related to the planned closure of the Greenville, Texas manufacturing facility.
2011 Financial Statements and Related Information In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods, and therefore, generally affect recognized expense and the recorded obligation in future periods.
While management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the Company’s pension and other postretirement plan obligations and future expense.
See Footnote 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the assumptions used.
The following tables summarize the Company’s pension and other postretirement plan assets and obligations included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011 (in millions):
## Table 3 ##
