Net sales	$	282.2		$	272.3		$	9.9		3.6	%
Segment net income	48.0			38.0			10.0			26.3	%

Adjusted EBITDA	$	56.7		$	53.6		$	3.1		5.8	%

Net sales increased 3.6%, with an increase in organic net sales of 4.1%, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of $1.2 million.

The increase in net sales was driven by growth in global Companion Animal sales in both North America and internationally. North American Companion Animal sales benefited from strong e-commerce sales offset by some softness in the mass and dollar channels. E-commerce sales also drove EMEA Companion Animal sales growth. Global Aquatics organic sales were flat to last year, with growth in nutrition and consumables offset by softness in new environments and other hard goods. North American Aquatics sales were lower than last year while overall EMEA aquatics sales increased compared to last year.

Segment net income, Adjusted EBITDA and margins increased due to volume growth, lower input costs, savings from operational productivity investments, and favorable mix, partially offset by increased investments and unfavorable FX.

Home & Garden (H&G)


	Three Month Periods Ended
(in millions, except %)	June 30, 2024			July 2, 2023			Variance
Net sales	$	211.0		$	186.6		$	24.4		13.1	%

Adjusted EBITDA	$	43.3		$	38.6		$	4.7		12.2	%
Adjusted EBITDA margin	20.5		%	20.7		%	(20)		bps

Net sales and organic net sales increased 13.0%. The net sales increase was primarily driven by higher sales volumes in the Controls, Household, and Repellents categories due to favorable weather conditions and lower retail inventory levels compared to last year, partially offset by declines in the Cleaning category.

The improved segment net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and margins were driven by higher sales, operational cost reductions from cost improvement initiatives and pricing, offset by increased investments in advertising, marketing and innovation.

Net sales increased 3.5%, with an increase in organic net sales of 6.1%, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of $7.4 million. The increase in net sales is attributable to growth in Personal Care, driven by strong growth e-commerce sales. North American sales grew in both Personal Care and Home Appliances. Sales in EMEA increased, with growth in Personal Care offsetting sales declines in small Home Appliances. Sales in LATAM Personal Care increased while small Home Appliances were flat.

The improvement in the segment's net loss and Adjusted EBITDA were driven by higher sales volume, lower inventory related expenses and cost improvement initiatives, offset by higher brand-focused investments, unfavorable mix and pricing.

Liquidity and Debt

As of the end of the quarter, the Company had a cash balance of $158 million plus $149 million of short-term investments consisting of term deposits with a maturity greater than 3 months but less than 12 months, and total liquidity of $797 million, including undrawn capacity on its cash flow revolver.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Within this document, including the tables that follow, reference is made to organic net sales, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted earnings per share (EPS). Management believes that organic net sales provide for a more complete understanding of underlying business trends of regional and segment performance by excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations and the impact of acquisitions (when applicable) when there is no comparable sales in the prior period. Organic sales growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to net sales in the prior comparative period. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates is determined by translating the period’s net sales using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior comparative period. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management to evaluate segment performance and frequently used by the financial community, which provides insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, because interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure for determining the Company's debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Management uses adjusted diluted EPS as a useful measure for providing further insight into our operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. The tax impact on adjustments reflect the income tax effect from adjustments made to diluted EPS. The Company provides this information to investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to

Page 5 / 19

assist in highlighting the results of on-going operations. While the Company's management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Company's GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results. Supplemental tables have been provided within the Appendix to this document to demonstrate reconciliation of non-GAAP measurements to the most comparable GAAP measure.

We define organic net sales as reported net sales excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and acquisitions. We believe this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors because it reflects regional and operating segment performance from our activities without the effect of changes in currency exchange rate and acquisitions. We use organic net sales as one measure to monitor and evaluate our regional and segment performance. Organic growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to reported net sales in the prior year. The effect of changes in currency exchange rates is determined by translating the current period net sales using the currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior period. Net sales are attributed to the geographic regions based on the country of destination. We exclude net sales from acquired businesses in the current year for which there are no comparable sales in the prior period. The following is a reconciliation of reported sales to organic sales for the three and nine month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to reported net sales for the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2023:

ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN

Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) is a non-GAAP metric used by management that we believe provides useful information to investors because it reflects ongoing operating performance and trends of our segments excluding certain non-cash based expenses and non-recurring items during each of the comparable periods and facilitates comparisons between peer companies since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Further, adjusted EBITDA is a measure used for determining the Company’s debt covenant. EBITDA is calculated by excluding the Company’s income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense from intangible assets from net income. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the following:

•Share based compensation costs consist of costs associated with long-term incentive compensation arrangements that generally consist of non-cash, stock-based compensation;

•Incremental project costs associated with strategic transactions, restructuring and optimization initiatives including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestitures of a business, costs to effect and facilitate a transaction, including such cost to integrate or separate the respective business, development and implementation of strategies to optimize operations, reduce costs, increase revenues, improve profit margins, including recognition of one-time exit or disposal costs. These amounts are excluded from our performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards strategic initiatives and business development activities, incremental costs directly attributable to such initiatives and are not considered recurring or reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or segments;

•Non-cash purchase accounting adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition, including, but not limited to, the costs attributable to the step-up in inventory value, and the incremental value in operating lease assets with below market rent, among others. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, the Company recognized non-cash expense due to the incremental value recognized as part of the Tristar Business acquisition on right of use operating leases with below market rent;

•Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations, including impairments from property, plant and equipment, operating and finance leases, and goodwill and other intangible assets, when applicable. During the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized impairment charges on a right of use operating lease asset associated with a HPC facility that was exited prior to the end of its term. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized impairments of its Rejuvenate® and a non-core HPC tradename indefinite lived intangible assets, along with impairment charges on right of use operating lease assets associated with HPC distribution facilities that were exited prior to end of its term. During the three and nine periods ended July 2, 2023, the Company recognized impairment of indefinite lived intangible assets for its Rejuvenate® and PowerXL® indefinite lived tradenames, along with an impairment on idle equipment associated with the early exit of a GPC warehouse lease and impairments on right of use operating lease assets associated with GPC and HPC facilities that were exited prior to the end of their term;

•Gain realized from proceeds received on the representation and warranties insurance policies associated with the Tristar Business acquisition realized during the nine month period ended June 30, 2024;

•Incremental reserves for non-recurring litigation or environmental remediation activity attributable to significant and unusual nonrecurring matters with no previous history or precedent. During the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, such costs were directly attributable to legal costs incurred for the proceeds received from the representation and warranties insurance policies associated with the Tristar Business acquisition;

•Gain or loss from the early extinguishment of debt realized through the repurchase or early redemption of outstanding debt obligations, net write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs during the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023;

•Incremental costs associated with the recognition of product recall costs incurred by the HPC segment in collaboration with the CPSC, initiated at the end of the year ended September 30 2022 and during the year ended September 30, 2023, resulting in the accrual and recognition of incremental costs for the recall, product returns from customers, write-off of inventory on hand, and other costs such as notification, shipping and handling, rework and destruction of affected products, and consumer refunds, as needed. Such costs are not recurring and directly attributable to the recall event, excluding all other costs associated with product warranty and returns;

•Unallocated shared costs reflect the costs associated with certain shared and center-led administrative functions such as information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain and commercial operations, supporting the HHI business during the period the Company owned and operated the business through the close of the HHI divestiture on June 20, 2023. Such costs are excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations in accordance of US GAAP, but reflected as part of income from continuing operations for all periods presented, and requiring retroactive adjustment for all periods presented. HHI was previously a segment of the consolidated group and was excluded from the consolidated Adjusted EBITDA since being recognized as discontinued operations. As a result, for all periods in which HHI was owned and operated by the Company, including comparable periods requiring retroactive adjustment, the adjustment is recognized to reconcile net income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA of the remaining segments of the consolidated group. With the close of the HHI divestiture on June 20, 2023, there is no adjustment recognized as such shared costs are mitigated through income from TSAs during the transition period post-separation, with subsequent restructuring initiatives to rightsize extraneous costs;

•Non-cash gain from the remeasurement in the contingent consideration liability associated with the Tristar Business acquisition during the nine month period ended July 2, 2023;

•For the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2023, the impact from the early settlement of foreign currency cash flow hedges during the year ended September 30, 2022, resulting in assumed losses at the original stated maturities of foreign currency cash flow hedges in our EMEA region that were settled early due to changes in the Company's legal entity organizational structure and forecasted purchasing strategy of HPC finished goods inventory within the region, resulting in excluded gains intended to mitigate costs during the year ending September 30, 2023; and

•Other adjustments are attributable to: (1) key executive severance and other one-time compensatory costs; and (2) non-recurring unusual insurable losses, including the receipt of related insurance proceeds.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of reported net sales for the respective periods.

ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS

We define adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) as reported diluted EPS excluding the effect of one-time, non-recurring activity and volatility associated with our income tax expense. The Company believes that adjusted diluted EPS provides further insight and comparability in operating performance as it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next. Tax impact on adjustments reflects the income tax effect of the other adjustments further summarized below. Adjustments to diluted EPS include the following:

•Non-cash gain from the remeasurement in the contingent consideration liability associated with the Tristar Business acquisition during the nine month period ended July 2, 2023;
