[1] Capital expenditures increased in 2013 due to including the results of our Central Europe operations for a full year. Capital expenditures decreased in 2012 as the impact of including the results of our Central Europe operations was more than offset by the decrease due to cycling the 2011 Canada capital spending on the high-speed can line in our Montréal brewery.
