****************************************
( $ in millions )	2006	2005	2004
cash flows from operating activities	$ 401.4	$ 558.8	$ 535.9
capital spending	-279.6 ( 279.6 )	-291.7 ( 291.7 )	-196.0 ( 196.0 )
proceeds for replacement of fire-damaged assets	61.3	2013	2013
free cash flow	$ 183.1	$ 267.1	$ 339.9
****************************************

cash flows from operating activities in 2006 were negatively affected by higher cash pension funding and higher working capital levels compared to the prior year . the higher working capital was a combination of higher than planned raw material inventory levels , higher income tax payments and higher accounts receivable balances , the latter resulting primarily from the repayment of a portion of the accounts receivable securitization program and late payments from customers in europe . management expects the increase in working capital to be temporary and that working capital levels will return to normal levels by the end of the first half of 2007. .
