US: Calories = [(Total Carbs + Protein) * 4 Cal/g + (Fat * 9 Cal/g)]. Soluble fiber is included in Total Carbs. In the US, food manufacturers have the option to exclude the amount of insoluble fiber from the calorie calculation.
EU: Calories = ([Carbs (sugars + starch ) + Protein] * 4 Cal/g) + (Fat * 9 Cal/g) + (All dietary fiber * 2 Cal/g)+ (Organic acids * 3 Cal/g)). In Europe, fiber is listed separately and is not included in the carb content. Other calorie conversion factors exist, none of which is relevant to this product.
