NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements and Policies
On July 1, 2012, the Company adopted ASU 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Presentation of Comprehensive Income" (ASU 2011-05), as amended by ASU 2011-12, which deferred the effective date for the presentation of reclassifications of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity and requires entities to present the components of net earnings and other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. We chose to present net earnings and other comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
During the current quarter, the Company adopted ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Reporting of Amounts Reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2013-02). This guidance requires entities to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component and to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income. We chose to present the requirements in the notes to the financial statements (See Note 8). The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had or is expected to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In October 2012, the Company acquired our partner's interest in a joint venture in Iberia that operates in our Baby Care and Family Care and Health Care reportable segments. The acquisition price for the partner's interest was $1.1 billion and the transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The total enterprise value of $1.9 billion was allocated primarily to indefinite-lived intangible assets of $0.2 billion, defined-life intangible assets of $0.9 billion and goodwill of $1.1 billion. These were offset somewhat by $0.3 billion of deferred tax liabilities on the intangibles. The Company recognized a $0.6 billion holding gain on its previously held investment, which was included in other non-operating income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Goodwill also increased from June 30, 2012 due to currency translation across all reportable segments.
Identifiable intangible assets as of March 31, 2013, are comprised of (amounts in millions):
|
| | | | | | | |
| Gross Carrying Amount | | Accumulated Amortization |
Amortizable intangible assets with determinable lives | $ | 9,955 |
| | $ | 5,066 |
|
Intangible assets with indefinite lives | 26,850 |
| | — |
|
Total identifiable intangible assets | $ | 36,805 |
| | $ | 5,066 |
|
Amortizable intangible assets consist principally of brands, patents, technology and customer relationships. The intangible assets with indefinite lives consist primarily of brands.
The amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $136 million and $122 million, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the amortization of intangibles was $389 million and $373 million, respectively.
5. Share-Based Compensation
Pursuant to applicable accounting guidance for share-based payments, companies must recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards.
Total share-based compensation for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are summarized in the following table (amounts in millions):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

For the year ending June 30, 2013, the expected return on plan assets is 7.4% and 8.3% for pensions and other retiree benefit plans, respectively. The return for pension plans is the same as prior year and the return for other retiree benefit plans was reduced from 9.2% in the prior year.
7. Risk Management Activities and Fair Value Measurements
As a multinational company with diverse product offerings, we are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices.
For details on the Company’s risk management activities and fair value measurement policies under the fair value hierarchy, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, segregated by level within the fair value hierarchy:
|

(1) | Other foreign currency instruments are comprised of foreign currency financial instruments that do not qualify as hedges. |
| |
(2) | Investment securities and all derivative assets are presented in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other noncurrent assets. The amortized cost of the U.S. government securities was $1,504 and $0 as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively. All U.S. government securities have contractual maturities between one and five years. |
| |
(3) | All liabilities are presented in accrued and other liabilities or other noncurrent liabilities. |
| |
(4) | Long-term debt includes the current portion ($2,513 and $4,095 as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively) of debt instruments. Long term debt is not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, but is measured at fair value for disclosure purposes. Fair values are generally estimated based on quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments. |
The Company recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy, if any, at the end of each quarter. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company transferred long-term debt instruments with a fair value of $455 million from Level 1 to Level 2. The transferred instruments represent the Company's investment in industrial development bonds which are infrequently traded in an observable market. There were no additional transfers between levels during the periods presented. Also, there was no significant activity within the Level 3 assets and liabilities during the periods presented and there were no assets or liabilities that were remeasured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the period ended March 31, 2013.
Certain of the Company’s financial instruments used in hedging transactions are governed by industry standard netting agreements with counterparties. If the Company’s credit rating were to fall below the levels stipulated in the agreements, the counterparties could demand either collateralization or termination of the arrangement. The aggregate fair value of the instruments covered by these contractual features that are in a net liability position as of March 31, 2013 was $47 million. The Company has never been required to post any collateral as a result of these contractual features.

9. Restructuring Program
The Company has historically incurred an ongoing annual level of restructuring-type activities to maintain a competitive cost structure, including manufacturing and workforce optimization. Before-tax costs incurred under the ongoing program have generally ranged from $250 to $500 million annually. In February and November 2012, the Company made announcements regarding an incremental restructuring program as part of a productivity and cost savings plan to reduce costs in the areas of
supply chain, research and development, marketing and overheads. The productivity and cost savings plan was designed to accelerate cost reductions by streamlining management decision making, manufacturing and other work processes in order to help fund the Company's growth strategy. The Company expects to incur in excess of $3.5 billion in before-tax restructuring costs over a five year period (from fiscal 2012 through fiscal 2016), including costs incurred as part of the ongoing and incremental restructuring program. The Company expects to incur approximately 50% of the costs under this plan by the end of fiscal 2013, with the remainder incurred in fiscal years 2014 through 2016.
The restructuring program is being executed across the Company's centralized organization as well as across virtually all of its Market Development Organizations (MDO) and Global Business Units (GBU). The restructuring program plans included an initial net reduction in non-manufacturing overhead personnel of approximately 5,700 by the end of fiscal 2013, which the company surpassed during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The restructuring program includes plans for a further non-manufacturing overhead personnel reduction of approximately 2% - 4% annually from fiscal 2014 through fiscal 2016. This is being done via the elimination of duplicate work, simplification through the use of technology, and the optimization of the various functional organizations, the number of business units and the Company's global footprint. In addition, the plan includes integration of newly acquired companies and the optimization of the supply chain and other manufacturing processes.
Restructuring costs incurred consist primarily of costs to separate employees and asset-related costs to exit facilities. The Company is also incurring other types of costs as outlined below. For the three-and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2013, the Company incurred charges of $180 million and $772 million, respectively. For the three-and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2013, approximately $110 million and $510 million of these charges were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense, respectively. The remainder is included in cost of products sold. Since the inception of this restructuring program, the Company has incurred charges of $1.8 billion. Approximately $1 billion of these charges were related to separations, $448 million were asset-related, and $358 million were related to other restructuring-type costs.
The following table presents restructuring activity for the nine months ended March 31, 2013: |

Separation Costs
Employee separation charges for the three-and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2013, relate to severance packages for approximately 690 employees and 3,140 employees, respectively. Separations related to non-manufacturing overhead personnel were approximately 170 and 2,220 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, respectively; these separations occurred primarily in North America and Western Europe. Severance costs related to voluntary separations are generally charged to earnings when the employee accepts the offer. Since its inception, the restructuring program has incurred separation charges related to approximately 6,440 employees, of which approximately 4,470 are non-manufacturing overhead personnel.
Asset-Related Costs
Asset-related costs consist of both asset write-downs and accelerated depreciation. Asset write-downs relate to the establishment of a new fair value basis for assets held-for-sale or disposal. These assets were written down to the lower of their current carrying basis or amounts expected to be realized upon disposal, less minor disposal costs. Charges for accelerated depreciation relate to long-lived assets that will be taken out of service prior to the end of their normal service period. These shortened-lived assets relate primarily to manufacturing consolidations and technology standardization. The asset-related charges will not have a significant impact on future depreciation charges.
Other Costs
Other restructuring-type charges are incurred as a direct result of the restructuring program. Such charges primarily include employee relocation related to separations and office consolidations, termination of contracts related to supply chain redesign and the cost to change internal systems and processes to support the underlying organizational changes.
Consistent with our historical policies for ongoing restructuring-type activities, the restructuring program charges are funded by and included within Corporate for both management and segment reporting. Accordingly, 100% of the charges under the program are included within the Corporate reportable segment. However, for informative purposes, the following table summarizes the total restructuring costs related to our reportable segments.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of our business which cover a wide range of matters such as antitrust, trade and other governmental regulations, product liability, patent and trademark matters, advertising, contracts, environmental issues, labor and employment matters and income taxes.
As previously disclosed, the Company has had a number of antitrust matters in Europe. These matters involve a number of other consumer products companies and/or retail customers. The Company’s policy is to comply with all laws and regulations, including all antitrust and competition laws, and to cooperate with investigations by relevant regulatory authorities, which the Company is doing. Competition and antitrust law inquiries often continue for several years and, if violations are found, can result in substantial fines.
In response to the actions of the regulatory authorities, the Company launched its own internal investigations into potential violations of competition laws. The Company identified violations in certain European countries and appropriate actions were taken.
Several regulatory authorities in Europe have issued separate decisions pursuant to their investigations alleging that the Company, along with several other companies, engaged in violations of competition laws in those countries. The Company has accrued the assessed fines for each of the decisions, of which all but $15 million has been paid as of March 31, 2013. Many of those are on appeal. As a result of our initial and on-going analyses of other formal complaints, the Company has accrued liabilities for competition law violations totaling $48 million as of March 31, 2013. While the ultimate resolution of these matters for which we have accrued liabilities may result in fines or costs in excess of the amounts reserved, we do not expect any such incremental losses to materially impact our financial statements in the period in which they are accrued and paid, respectively. The remaining authorities' investigations are in various stages of the regulatory process. For these other remaining competition law matters, we cannot reasonably estimate any additional fines to which the Company may be subject as a result of the investigations. We will continue to monitor developments for all of these investigations and will record additional charges as appropriate.
With respect to other litigation and claims, while considerable uncertainty exists, in the opinion of management and our counsel, the ultimate resolution of the various lawsuits and claims will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We are also subject to contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require us to take action to correct the effects on the environment of prior manufacturing and waste disposal practices. Based on currently available information, we do not believe the ultimate resolution of environmental remediation will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Income Tax Uncertainties
The Company is present in over 150 taxable jurisdictions and, at any point in time, has 40 – 50 audits underway at various stages of completion. We evaluate our tax positions and establish liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite our belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law and closing of statutes of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the tax provision as appropriate. We have tax years open ranging from 2002 and forward. We are generally not able to reliably estimate the ultimate settlement amounts or timing until the close of the audit. While we do not expect material changes, it is possible that the amount of unrecognized benefit with respect to our uncertain tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months related to audits described above. At this time, we are not able to make a reasonable estimate of the range of impact on the balance of uncertain tax positions or the impact on the effective tax rate related to these items.
Additional information on the Commitments and Contingencies of the Company can be found in Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, which appears in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
11. Discontinued Operations
In May 2012, the Company completed the divestiture of our global Snacks business to The Kellogg Company for $2.7 billion in cash. Under the terms of the agreement, Kellogg acquired our branded snack products, manufacturing facilities in Belgium and the United States and the majority of the employees working on the Snacks business. The Company recorded an after-tax gain on the transaction of $1.4 billion, which was included in net earnings from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the year ended June 30, 2012.
The Snacks business had historically been part of the Company’s Snacks & Pet Care reportable segment. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, the results of the Snacks business are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. Additionally, as a result of this transaction, the Pet Care business is included in the Fabric Care and Home Care segment.
Following is selected financial information included in net earnings from discontinued operations for the Snacks business:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements may appear throughout this report, including without limitation, the following sections: “Management's Discussion and Analysis,” and “Risk Factors.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. A detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in the section titled "Economic Conditions, Challenges and Risks" and the section titled “Risk Factors” (Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q). We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise.
The purpose of this Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is to provide an understanding of Procter & Gamble's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows by focusing on changes in certain key measures from year to year. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. MD&A is organized in the following sections:
| |
• | Economic Conditions, Challenges and Risks |
| |
• | Results of Operations – Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2013 |
| |
• | Business Segment Discussion – Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2013 |
| |
• | Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures |
Throughout MD&A, we refer to measures used by management to evaluate performance, including unit volume growth, net sales and net earnings. We also refer to a number of financial measures that are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), including organic sales growth, core net earnings per share (EPS), free cash flow and free cash flow productivity. Organic sales growth is net sales growth excluding the impacts of foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures. Core EPS is a measure of the Company's diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations excluding certain items that are not judged to be part of the Company's sustainable results or trends. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less capital spending. Free cash flow productivity is the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings. We believe these measures provide investors with important information that is useful in understanding our business results and trends. The explanation at the end of MD&A provides more details on the use and the derivation of these measures.
Management also uses certain market share and market consumption estimates to evaluate performance relative to competition despite some limitations on the availability and comparability of share and consumption information. References to market share and market consumption in MD&A are based on a combination of vendor-reported consumption and market size data, as well as internal estimates. All market share references represent the percentage of sales in dollar terms on a constant currency basis of our products, relative to all product sales in the category.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS
Following are highlights of results for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 versus the nine months ended March 31, 2012:
| |
• | Net sales were consistent with the prior year at $63.5 billion. Organic sales, which exclude the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange, were up 2%. |
| |
• | Unit volume increased 1%. Volume grew low single digits for Baby Care and Family Care, Fabric Care and Home Care, and Health Care, and declined low single digits for Beauty and Grooming. |
| |
• | Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble were $9.4 billion, an increase of $2.3 billion, or 32% versus the prior year period. This net earnings balance increased $1.8 billion or 25% due to non-core items, primarily including a $623 million after tax current period holding gain resulting from P&G's purchase of the balance of its Baby Care and Feminine Care joint venture in Iberia and a prior year $1.5 billion after tax non-cash goodwill and intangible assets impairment charge |
associated with the Appliances and Salon Professional businesses, partially offset by a $236 million after tax current period charge from the balance sheet impact of a devaluation of the official foreign exchange rate in Venezuela.
| |
• | Diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations increased 36% to $3.22. Diluted net earnings per share increased 33% to $3.22. The prior year net earnings per share included $0.05 per share from discontinued operations related to our divested Snacks business. |
| |
• | Core net earnings per share increased 8% to $3.27. |
| |
• | Operating cash flow for the fiscal year to date increased 13% to $10.5 billion. Free cash flow, which is operating cash flow less capital expenditures, was $8.1 billion. Free cash flow productivity, which is the ratio of free cash flow to net earnings, was 85%. |
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, CHALLENGES AND RISKS
Ability to Achieve Business Plans. We are a consumer products company and rely on continued demand for our brands and products. To achieve business goals, we must develop and sell products that appeal to consumers and retail trade customers. Our continued success is dependent on leading-edge innovation with respect to both products and operations, on the continued positive reputations of our brands and on our ability to successfully maintain patent and trademark protection. This means we must be able to obtain patents and trademarks, and respond to technological advances and patents granted to competition. Our success is also dependent on effective sales, advertising and marketing programs. Our ability to innovate and execute in these areas will determine the extent to which we are able to grow existing sales and volume profitably, especially with respect to the product categories and geographic markets (including developing markets) in which we have chosen to focus. There are high levels of competitive activity in the environments in which we operate. To address these challenges, we must respond to competitive factors, including pricing, promotional incentives, trade terms and product initiatives. We must manage each of these factors, as well as maintain mutually beneficial relationships with our key customers, in order to effectively compete and achieve our business plans. As a company that manages a portfolio of consumer brands, our ongoing business model involves a certain level of ongoing acquisition, divestiture and joint venture activities. We must be able to successfully manage the impacts of these activities, while at the same time delivering against base business objectives. Daily conduct of our business also depends on our ability to maintain key information technology systems, including systems operated by third-party suppliers, and to maintain security over our data.
Cost Pressures. Our costs are subject to fluctuations, particularly due to changes in commodity prices, raw materials, labor costs, foreign exchange and interest rates. Therefore, our success is dependent, in part, on our continued ability to manage these fluctuations through pricing actions, cost savings projects, sourcing decisions and certain hedging transactions, as well as through consistent productivity improvements. We also must manage our debt and currency exposure, especially in certain countries with currency exchange, import authorization and pricing controls, such as Venezuela, China, India, and Argentina. We need to maintain key manufacturing and supply arrangements, including sole supplier and sole manufacturing plant arrangements, and successfully manage any disruptions at Company manufacturing sites. We must implement, achieve and sustain cost improvement plans, including our outsourcing projects and those related to general overhead and workforce optimization. Successfully managing these changes, including identifying, developing and retaining key employees, is critical to our success.
Global Economic Conditions. Demand for our products has a correlation to global macroeconomic factors. The current macroeconomic factors remain dynamic. Economic changes, terrorist activity, political unrest and natural disasters may result in business interruption, inflation, deflation, lack of market growth or decreased demand for our products. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to manage continued global political and/or economic uncertainty, especially in our significant geographic markets. We could also be negatively impacted by a global, regional or national economic crisis, including sovereign risk in the event of a deterioration in the credit worthiness of or a default by local governments, resulting in a disruption of credit markets. Such events could negatively impact our ability to collect receipts due from governments, including refunds of value added taxes, create significant credit risks relative to our local customers and depository institutions, and/or negatively impact our overall liquidity.
Regulatory Environment. Changes in laws, regulations and the related interpretations may alter the environment in which we do business. This includes changes in environmental, competitive and product-related laws, as well as changes in accounting standards and taxation requirements. Our ability to manage regulatory, tax and legal matters (including, but not limited to, product liability, patent, intellectual property, competition law matters and tax policy) and to resolve pending legal matters within current estimates may impact our results.
For more information on risks that could impact our results, refer to Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in this Form 10-Q.

Net Sales
Net sales increased 2% to $20.6 billion for the third quarter on a 2% increase in unit volume versus the prior year period. Health Care grew volume mid-single digits. Baby Care and Family Care and Fabric Care and Home Care volume grew low single digits. Beauty and Grooming volume decreased low single digits. Volume was in line with the prior year period in developed regions and grew mid single digits in developing regions. Price increases added 1% to net sales, primarily executed in prior periods to offset cost increases and devaluing developing market currencies. Unfavorable foreign exchange reduced net sales by 1%. Organic sales grew 3% driven by the unit volume increase and price increases.

Net sales percentage changes are approximations based on quantitative formulas that are consistently applied.
* Other includes the sales mix impact from acquisitions/divestitures and rounding impacts necessary to reconcile volume to net sales.
Operating Costs
Gross margin expanded 50 basis points to 49.8% of net sales for the quarter. The increase in gross margin was driven by a 50 basis point impact from higher pricing and approximately 170 basis point impact from manufacturing cost savings. Gross margin also improved by 30 basis points from a decrease in restructuring spending and by 30 basis points from volume leverage due to the increase in unit volume. Gross margin was negatively impacted by 120 basis points from negative product and geographic mix, behind disproportionate growth in mid-tier products and developing regions, which have lower gross margins than the Company average. Gross margin was also negatively impacted by 70 basis points from innovation and new production capacity start-up costs and by 40 basis points from a combination of foreign exchange and higher commodity costs.
Total selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 3% to $6.8 billion, primarily behind an increase in marketing spending and a charge from the balance sheet impact of the devaluation of the official foreign exchange rate in Venezuela (See Foreign Currency Translation - Venezuela Impacts, below). These increases were partially offset by a reduction in restructuring spending and reduced overhead costs as the result of the productivity and cost savings plan. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 40 basis points to 33.3% primarily due to the impact of the Venezuela devaluation charge.
Non-Operating Costs
Interest expense was $163 million for the quarter, down $16 million versus the prior year period due to lower interest rates on floating rate debt, partially offset by an increase in debt outstanding. Other non-operating income/(expense) decreased $21 million to $46 million.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate on continuing operations decreased 250 basis points to 21.2%. The current year decline resulted primarily from an 110 basis point tax reduction from the Venezuela currency devaluation and a 150 basis point reduction from reflecting the fiscal year to date impact of the U.S. corporate tax law changes made in early January in the quarter.
Net Earnings
Net earnings from continuing operations increased $158 million or 6% to $2.6 billion for the quarter. The increase was due to the increase in net sales, the 50 basis point gross margin expansion in the current year and the reduction in the effective tax rate,
partially offset by the increase in SG&A. Diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations increased 9% to $0.88. Earnings per share grew more than net earnings due to the impact of noncontrolling interests. Diluted net earnings per share from discontinued operations was $0.01 in the prior year period (zero in the current period) from earnings of the divested snacks business. Core net earnings per share increased 5% to $0.99. Core net earnings per share represents diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations excluding the current period charge from the impact of the Venezuela devaluation, incremental restructuring charges in both periods related to our productivity and cost savings plan, and prior year charges for impairments and European legal matters.
Foreign Currency Translation – Venezuela Impacts
Venezuela is a highly inflationary economy under U.S. GAAP. As a result, the U.S. dollar is the functional currency for our subsidiaries in Venezuela. Any currency remeasurement adjustments for non-dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities held by these subsidiaries and other transactional foreign exchange gains and losses are reflected in earnings.
The Venezuelan government has established one official exchange rate for qualifying dividends, and imported goods and services. That rate was equal to 4.3 Bolivares Fuertes to one U.S. dollar through February 12, 2013. Effective February 13, 2013, the Venezuelan government devalued its currency relative to the U.S. dollar from 4.3 to 6.3. Transactions at the official exchange rate are subject to CADIVI (Venezuela government's Foreign Exchange Administrative Commission). Our overall results in Venezuela are reflected in our Consolidated Financial Statements at the official rate, which is also expected to be applicable to dividend repatriations.
The remeasurement of our local balance sheets in the third fiscal quarter to reflect the impact of the devaluation resulted in an after tax charge of $236 million ($0.08 per share). There will also be an ongoing impact related to measuring our income statement at the new exchange rates. Moving from the 4.3 rate to 6.3 will reduce future total company reported sales by less than 1% on a going basis. This does not impact our organic sales growth rate, which excludes the impact of foreign currency changes. Versus our existing business plans, the exchange rate change reduced our reported earnings per share by approximately $0.01 in the third fiscal quarter and is expected to reduce fourth quarter results by about $0.02 per share.
In addition to the official exchange rate, there had been a parallel exchange market that was controlled by the Central Bank of Venezuela as the only legal intermediary to execute foreign exchange transactions outside of CADIVI. This was executed at the SITME rate which was approximately 5.3 through February 12, 2013. The notional amount of transactions that ran through this foreign exchange rate for nonessential goods was restrictive, which for us essentially eliminated our ability to access any foreign exchange rate other than the official CADIVI rate to pay for imported goods and/or manage our local monetary asset balances. When the government devalued its currency in February, 2013, it also eliminated the parallel SITME exchange market. In March, 2013, the Venezuelan government announced the establishment of a new currency exchange market that will also be administered by the Central Bank of Venezuela as the only legal intermediary to execute foreign exchange transactions outside of CADIVI. This will be referred to as the SICAD rate and be executed through an auction process. As of March 31, 2013, there had been one SICAD auction executed but there is no official information available on the details or planned frequency of the auction process or the underlying auction rates.
As of March 31, 2013, we had net monetary assets denominated in local currency of $957 million. Local currency balances increased approximately 20% since June 30, 2012 due to a slow-down by the government in the exchange of funds requested by us through CADIVI and an increase in the net amount of indirect value added taxes (VAT) receivable from the government from goods receipts and shipments. This local currency increase was offset by the impacts of the February 2013 devaluation. Prior to the February 2013 devaluation, a portion of our net monetary assets denominated in local currency ($333 million as of December 31, 2012) was remeasured using the SITME rate because we planned to use that amount of the net assets (largely cash) to satisfy U.S. dollar denominated liabilities that do not qualify for official rate dollars. The remaining net monetary asset balances had been reflected within our Consolidated Financial Statements at the 4.3 official exchange rate. However, as noted in the preceding paragraph, the parallel SITME market was eliminated at the time of the February 2013 devaluation, and there is no information available on the details or planned frequency of the SICAD mechanism. Accordingly, all of our net monetary assets are measured at the official 6.3 exchange rate at March 31, 2013.
Finally, the Venezuelan government enacted a price control law during the second half of fiscal 2012 that negatively impacted the net selling prices of certain products sold in Venezuela. Fiscal year to date, the impact of this law was not significant.
Depending on the ultimate transparency and liquidity of the SICAD market, it is possible that we may remeasure a portion of our net monetary balances (the amount of the net assets needed to satisfy U.S. dollar denominated liabilities that do not qualify for official rate dollars-$313 million as of March 31, 2013) at the SICAD rate. This would result in an additional devaluation charge. Over time, we intend to restore the sales and profit to levels achieved prior to the devaluation. However, our ability to do so will be impacted by several factors. These include the Company's ability to mitigate the effect of the recently enacted
price controls, any potential future devaluation, any further Venezuelan government price or exchange controls, economic conditions, and the availability of raw materials and utilities. In addition, depending on the future availability of U.S. dollars at the official rate, our local U.S. dollar needs, our overall repatriation plans, the creditworthiness of the local depository institutions and other creditors and our ability to collect amounts due from customers and the government, including VAT receivables, we may have exposure for our local monetary assets. We also have devaluation exposure for the differential between the current and potential future official and parallel exchange rates.
