Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The August 31, 2010 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods shown reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation thereof. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on October 18, 2010.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Sales Concentration

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. is a significant U.S. and global mass retail customer and offers a variety of the Company’s products. Sales to U.S. Wal-Mart stores and its affiliates worldwide accounted for approximately 8 percent and 10 percent of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and approximately 7 percent and 10 percent of the Company’s consolidated net sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Accounts receivable from Wal-Mart stores and its affiliates accounted for 6 percent and 9 percent of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable balances at February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010, respectively.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

In the normal course of business, the Company employs established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s U.K. subsidiary, whose functional currency is Pound Sterling, utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to limit its exposure in converting cash and intercompany accounts receivable balances denominated in non-functional currencies. The principal currency affected is the Euro. The Company regularly monitors its foreign currency exchange rate exposures to ensure the overall effectiveness of its foreign currency hedge positions. While the Company engages in foreign currency hedging activity to reduce its risk, for accounting purposes, none of its foreign currency forward contracts are designated as hedges.

Foreign currency forward contracts are accounted for on a mark-to-market basis, with net realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized currently in other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Cash flows from settlements of foreign currency forward contracts are included in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Foreign currency forward contracts in a net asset position at the end of the reporting period are included in other current assets, while foreign currency forward contracts in a net liability position at the end of the reporting period are included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institution that is counterparty to its foreign currency forward contracts, and has not experienced nonperformance by this counterparty. As a matter of policy, the Company does not purchase foreign currency forward contracts that exceed the amount of its cash and intercompany accounts receivable balances denominated in non-functional currencies. At February 28, 2011, the Company had $13.4 million of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding which mature from March 2011 through June 2011. Unrealized net gains related to foreign currency forward contracts were not material at February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010. Realized net gains and losses related to foreign currency forward contracts were not material for each of the three and six month periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010.

Income Taxes

Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the current year. A deferred income tax liability or asset is established for the expected future tax consequences resulting from the differences in financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In addition to valuation allowances, the Company provides for uncertain tax positions when such tax positions do not meet the recognition thresholds or measurement standards prescribed by the authoritative guidance on income taxes. Amounts for uncertain tax positions are adjusted in periods when new information becomes available or when positions are effectively settled. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

U.S. federal income tax expense is provided on remittances of foreign earnings and on unremitted foreign earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested. U.S. federal income taxes and foreign withholding taxes are not provided when foreign earnings are indefinitely reinvested. The Company determines whether its foreign subsidiaries will invest their undistributed earnings indefinitely based on the capital needs of the foreign subsidiaries and reassesses this determination each reporting period. Changes to the Company’s determination may be warranted based on the Company’s experience as well as plans regarding future international operations and expected remittances.

Earnings per Common Share

The Company calculates earnings per common share (“EPS”) using the two-class method, which provides for an allocation of net income between common stock and other participating securities based on their respective participation rights to share in dividends. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income available to common shareholders for the period includes dividends paid to common shareholders during the period plus a proportionate share of undistributed net income allocable to common shareholders for the period; the proportionate share of undistributed net income allocable to common shareholders for the period is based on the proportionate share of total weighted-average common shares and participating securities outstanding during the period.

Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased by the weighted-average number of potentially dilutive common shares (dilutive securities) that were outstanding during the period if the effect is dilutive. Dilutive securities are comprised of stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units granted under the Company’s prior stock option plan and current equity incentive plan.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated authoritative guidance related to when to perform step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. Per this updated authoritative guidance, when a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount, Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test will be performed if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The qualitative factors to be considered are consistent with the current interim impairment triggers for goodwill. Upon adoption, an entity will perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. Furthermore, any impairment identified at the time of adoption will be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The Company is required to apply these new requirements in its fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company has evaluated this updated authoritative guidance, and it does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued updated authoritative guidance related to financing receivables which enhances the disclosure requirements about the credit quality and related allowance for credit losses of financing receivables. This updated authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The Company has evaluated this updated authoritative guidance, and it does not expect it to impact its consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In January 2010, the FASB issued updated authoritative guidance related to fair value measurements which requires certain new disclosures related to activities in Level 3 fair value measurements, including purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. This updated authoritative guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of this updated authoritative guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Note 3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired. Other intangible assets, including both indefinite-lived intangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets, consist of trade names and non-contractual customer relationships. The carrying values of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment annually during the Company’s second fiscal quarter.

In addition to the annual impairment tests, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated each reporting period. Goodwill is evaluated each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life and to determine whether any indicators of impairment exist. Indicators such as

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, changes in the Company’s strategy for its overall business or use of acquired assets, unexpected negative industry or economic trends, decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period, decreased market capitalization relative to net book values, unanticipated technological change or competitive activities, loss of key distribution, change in consumer demand, loss of key personnel and acts by governments and courts may signal that an asset has become impaired.

Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable and/or their remaining useful lives may no longer be appropriate.

During the quarter ended February 28, 2011, the Company performed its annual impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. The annual goodwill impairment test was performed at the reporting unit level as required by the authoritative guidance on intangibles, goodwill and other. This annual test follows a two-step process and is conducted by applying fair value concepts. Only the first step of the annual goodwill impairment test was required as the fair values of all reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying values. In performing the annual impairment test of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company considered the fair value concepts of a market participant and the highest and best use for its intangible assets. Based on the results of the annual goodwill impairment test, the Company determined that its goodwill was not impaired since the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by more than 10% as of February 28, 2011.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company conducted the annual impairment test for its indefinite-lived intangible assets, which included the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names. All three of these trade names generate their own revenue streams and the revenues for each are in no way dependent on the revenue streams of any of the other trade names. Based on the results of this annual impairment test, the Company determined that none of these intangible assets were impaired as of February 28, 2011. Although no impairment was identified during this annual impairment test, the amount by which the fair values exceeded the carrying values for two of the three trade names decreased from the fiscal year 2010 annual impairment test. This is due to the manner in which the Company plans to manage these trade names in future periods, the decreased sales for these trade names in recent periods and the lower level of forecasted sales for these trade names in future periods.

In conjunction with the annual impairment test that was conducted in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company also performed an evaluation of its indefinite-lived intangible assets to determine whether an indefinite life for each trade name was still warranted as of February 28, 2011. As a result of this evaluation, the Company determined that events and circumstance had occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2011 which indicated that the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names should no longer be considered to have indefinite lives. These events and circumstances included the following, all of which indicate that these three trade names are definite-lived:

• The Company’s strategic decision to divert research and development resources from its 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names so that the Company can focus more specifically and continue to gain momentum on the development and extension of its multi-purpose maintenance products;

• The tactical manner in which management intends to manage all three trade names in future periods;

• Lost distribution within certain channels for these trade names, which the Company may or may not be able to recover in future periods;

• The recent increased variability of promotional activities with certain of the Company’s key customers for these trade names, which the Company may or may not be able to reverse in future periods; and

• A lower level of forecasted sales for each of these trade names as a result of decreased sales for each in recent periods and the manner in which management intends to manage these trade names in future periods.

As a result of the aforementioned events and circumstances, the Company determined that it was appropriate to change the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names from indefinite-lived to definite-lived intangibles effective February 28, 2011.

The Company determined the estimated remaining economic lives of the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names based on future forecasted cash flows for these trade names, as well as the consideration of various other factors. These factors included the strength of each trade name and their respective market share within the category

10

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

in which each operates, the stability of the household cleaning products industry, the fact that these trade names have been in existence for a long period of time and are expected to remain in existence for a significant number of years in the future and the fact that no legal, regulatory, or contractual conditions currently exist that would limit their remaining useful lives. After taking all of these factors into consideration, the Company concluded that the 1001 trade name will generate future cash flows for at least the next twenty years and the 2000 Flushes and Spot Shot trade names will generate future cash flows for at least the next seventeen years. As a result, these are the periods over which each trade name will be amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on March 1, 2011. In future periods, total amortization expense of approximately $0.4 million quarterly or $1.6 million annually will be recorded associated with these three trade names.

Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

Prior to February 28, 2011, indefinite-lived intangible assets, which are not being amortized, consisted of the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names and were included in other intangible assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. At February 28, 2011, the Company changed the classification of all three trade names from indefinite-lived to definite-lived. As a result, the Company no longer has indefinite-lived intangible assets as of February 28, 2011. Changes in the carrying amounts of indefinite-lived intangible assets by segment for the six months ended February 28, 2011 are summarized below (in thousands):

Definite-lived Intangible Assets

Prior to February 28, 2011, the Company’s definite-lived intangible assets consisted of the Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names and certain non-contractual customer relationships from the acquisition of the 1001 line of products in fiscal year 2004. The Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of thirteen and eight years, respectively. The non-contractual customer relationships intangible asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of eight years. At February 28, 2011, the Company changed the classification of its 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names from indefinite-lived to definite-lived. Thus, beginning on March 1, 2011, the 1001 trade name will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of twenty years, and the 2000 Flushes and Spot Shot trade names will be amortized over their estimated useful lives of seventeen years. The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets are included in other intangible assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes the definite-lived intangible assets and the related accumulated amortization (in thousands):

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a hierarchy that categorizes fair value measurements into the following three levels based on the types of inputs used in measuring their fair value:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or observable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below (in thousands):

	February 28, 2011
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Money market funds	$	10,419	$	—	$	10,419	$	—

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Money market funds	$	24,362	$	—	$	24,362	$	—

Money market funds are highly liquid investments classified as cash equivalents in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010. These securities are valued based on third party quotations of similar assets in active markets, and are thus classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the six months ended February 28, 2011.

The carrying values of trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The estimated fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities, was $11.2 million and $22.4 million at February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010, respectively, based on discounted future cash flows using current market interest rates.

Nonfinancial Assets and Liabilities

The Company’s nonfinancial assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value subsequent to initial recognition when they are deemed to be impaired. There were no nonfinancial assets and liabilities deemed to be impaired and measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010.

Note 6. Share Repurchase Plan

On December 14, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share buy-back plan, which is in effect through December 13, 2011. Under the plan, the Company is authorized to acquire up to $25.0 million of its outstanding shares on such terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto. During the period from December 14, 2010 through February 28, 2011, the Company repurchased 243,500 shares at a total cost of $9.6 million.

On April 4, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $35.0 million to the existing $25.0 million share buy-back plan, for a total of $60.0 million, and an extension of the expiration date to April 4, 2013. See Note 11 – Subsequent Events for additional details.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

The Company has relationships with various suppliers (contract manufacturers) who manufacture the Company’s products. Although the Company typically does not have definitive minimum purchase obligations included in the contract terms with its contract manufacturers, when such obligations have been included, they have been immaterial to date. Supply needs are communicated by the Company to its contract manufacturers and the Company is committed to purchase the products produced based on orders and short-term projections, ranging from two to five months, provided to the contract manufacturers. The Company is also obligated to purchase obsolete or slow-moving inventory from its contract manufacturers and has done so in the past under these commitments, the amounts of which have been immaterial.

In addition to the commitments to purchase products from contract manufacturers described above, the Company may also enter into commitments with other manufacturers to purchase finished goods and components to support innovation initiatives and/or supply chain initiatives. As of February 28, 2011, no such commitments were outstanding.

Litigation

The Company is party to various claims, legal actions and complaints, including product liability litigation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that none of these matters is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On October 3, 2010, a legal action was filed against the Company in the United States Federal Court for the Eastern District of Texas (Promote Innovation, LLC v. WD-40 Company). The complaint is a qui tam action brought by the plaintiff on behalf of the United States of America for alleged violation of Section 292 of the Patent Act (Title 35 U.S. Code, Section 292) for false patent marking. The complaint alleges that the Company included reference to an expired patent on certain product packaging, specifically including 2000 Flushes brand products, with an intent to deceive the public. The complaint seeks to recover a civil monetary fine of $500 per false marking offense, or an alternative amount determined by the court, one-half of which is to be paid to the United States. The Company intends to vigorously defend this claim of intentional false patent marking. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss from this action is remote.

On June 18, 2010, a legal action, entitled Andrea Burns v. WD-40 Company, was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Orange (“Burns”). The complaint seeks class action status and alleges that the Company misrepresented that its 2000 Flushes Bleach and 2000 Flushes Blue Plus Bleach automatic toilet bowl cleaners (“ATBCs”) are safe for plumbing systems and unlawfully omitted to advise consumers regarding the allegedly damaging effect the use of the ATBCs has on toilet parts made of plastic and rubber. The plaintiff seeks damages and/or restitution, an injunction and other relief, including punitive damages, attorneys fees and costs.

The Burns action is substantively similar to three previous legal proceedings filed against the Company since 2002. Each of the prior actions was dismissed, including the most recent proceeding, Drimmer v. WD-40 Company (“Drimmer”), a case filed by the same plaintiff law firm in April 2006 in the United States District Court, Southern District of California. In August 2008, the Company defeated the Drimmer plaintiff’s motion for class certification, a decision that was upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in September 2009. The Drimmer action was subsequently dismissed with prejudice in March 2010.

In the Burns action, the parties have conducted limited discovery, including the Company’s deposition of the plaintiff in March 2011 to determine the facts upon which the plaintiff bases its individual claims and suitability as a proposed class representative. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss in Burns is remote.

Since 2004, the Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits brought by a group of attorneys on behalf of individual plaintiffs who assert that exposure to products that allegedly contain benzene is a cause of certain cancers

15

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(the “Benzene Lawsuits”). The Company is one of many defendants in these legal proceedings whose products are alleged to contain benzene. However, the Company specifies that its suppliers provide constituent ingredients free of benzene. The Company believes its products have always been formulated without containing benzene and that the facts developed in litigation to date support this position. The plaintiffs in the Benzene Lawsuits typically seek damages in unspecified amounts for injuries or death attributable to a form of cancer linked to exposure to benzene. The Company is unable to quantify the total amount of damages asserted by the plaintiffs in the Benzene Lawsuits. Except for self-insured retention amounts applicable to each separately filed lawsuit, the Company expects that the Benzene Lawsuits will be adequately covered by insurance and will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company is vigorously defending these lawsuits and continues to obtain dismissals reducing the number of pending actions. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss from the Benzene Lawsuits is remote.

Indemnifications

As permitted under Delaware law, the Company has agreements whereby it indemnifies senior officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, the Company maintains Director and Officer insurance coverage that mitigates the Company’s exposure with respect to such obligations. As a result of the Company’s insurance coverage, management believes that the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Thus, no liabilities have been recorded for these agreements as of February 28, 2011.

From time to time, the Company enters into indemnification agreements with certain contractual parties in the ordinary course of business, including agreements with lenders, lessors, contract manufacturers, marketing distributors, customers and certain vendors. All such indemnification agreements are entered into in the context of the particular agreements and are provided in an attempt to properly allocate risk of loss in connection with the consummation of the underlying contractual arrangements. Although the maximum amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited, management believes that the Company maintains adequate levels of insurance coverage to protect the Company with respect to most potential claims arising from such agreements and that such agreements do not otherwise have value separate and apart from the liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Thus, no liabilities have been recorded with respect to such indemnification agreements as of February 28, 2011.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, to determine its quarterly provision for income taxes. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

The provision for income taxes was 32.9% and 34.2% of income before income taxes for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 32.2% and 34.3% of income before income taxes for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rates for both the three and six month periods was primarily due to the increasing income from the Company’s foreign operations which are taxed at lower rates when compared to domestic rates and an increase in the tax benefit associated with the qualified domestic production activities deduction from period to period. The decrease was also caused by the reversal of uncertain tax position reserves due to various state audit settlements, the release of the remaining valuation allowance on foreign net operating loss carryforwards, and the tax impact of the recent reinstatement of the federal research and development credit on the Company’s 2010 and 2011 fiscal years.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $3.6 million as of February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010, of which $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The gross liability for income taxes related to unrecognized tax benefits is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

16

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

The total balance of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions was $0.2 million as of February 28, 2011 and August 31, 2010. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. There were no material interest or penalties included in income tax expense for each of the three and six month periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010. During the three months ended February 28, 2011, the Company recognized tax benefits of $0.1 million primarily due to expiring state statutes.

During the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Company recognized tax benefits of $0.1 million primarily due to expiring state statutes.

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. Due to expired statutes, the Company’s federal income tax returns for years prior to fiscal year 2007 are not subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Generally, for the majority of state and foreign jurisdictions where the Company does business, periods prior to fiscal year 2006 are no longer subject to examination. The Company is currently under audit in various state and local jurisdictions for fiscal years 2005 through 2007. The Company has estimated that up to $0.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits related to income tax positions may be affected by the resolution of tax examinations or expiring statutes of limitation within the next twelve months. Audit outcomes and the timing of settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.

Note 10. Business Segments and Foreign Operations

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on sales, operating income and expected return. The Company is organized based on geographic location. Segment data does not include inter-segment revenues and incorporates corporate expenses into the Americas segment, with the exception of certain research and development expenses which the Europe segment started to incur during the current fiscal year. All such corporate expenses are not allocated to other segments because the Company’s segments are run independently. As a result, there are few costs that could be considered only corporate expenses that would qualify for allocation to other segments. The most significant portion of corporate expenses relates to the Americas segment both as a percentage of time and sales. Therefore, any allocation to other segments would be arbitrary.

Note 11. Subsequent Events

On March 22, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.27 per share payable on April 29, 2011 to shareholders of record on April 15, 2011.

On April 4, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase to the existing $25.0 million share buy-back plan, which was previously approved on December 14, 2010, to authorize the Company to acquire an additional $35.0 million of its outstanding shares and to extend the expiration date of the plan to April 4, 2013. As a result, the Company is now authorized to acquire shares of its common stock in the aggregate amount of $60.0 million, less the $9.6 million utilized to date, subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

As used in this report, the terms “we,” “our,” “us” and “the Company” refer to WD-40 Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless the context suggests otherwise. Amounts and percents in tables and discussions may not total due to rounding.

The following information is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I—Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 18, 2010.

In order to show the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our results of operations, we have included constant currency disclosures, where necessary, in the Overview and Results of Operations sections which follow. Constant currency disclosures represent the translation of our current fiscal year revenues and expenses from the functional currencies of our subsidiaries to U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We use results on a constant currency basis as one of the measures to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Results on a constant currency basis are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”) and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Overview

The Company

WD-40 Company, based in San Diego, California, is a global consumer products company dedicated to delivering unique, high value and easy-to-use solutions for a wide variety of maintenance needs of “doer” and “on-the-job” users by leveraging and building the brand fortress of the Company. We market three multi-purpose maintenance product brands, WD-40^®, 3-IN-ONE^® Oil and BLUE WORKS™. Blue Works, which is targeted at the industrial channel, is the newest of these product brands. We launched Blue Works in the U.S. in the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 and in select markets in Europe starting in November 2010. We also market the following homecare and cleaning product brands: X-14^® mildew stain remover and automatic toilet bowl cleaners, 2000 Flushes^® automatic

19

toilet bowl cleaners, Carpet Fresh^® and No Vac^® rug and room deodorizers, Spot Shot^® aerosol and liquid carpet stain removers, 1001^® household cleaners and rug and room deodorizers and Lava^® and Solvol^® heavy-duty hand cleaners.

Our brands are sold in various locations around the world. Multi-purpose maintenance products are sold worldwide in markets throughout North, Central and South America, Asia, Australia and the Pacific Rim, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Homecare and cleaning products are sold primarily in North America, the U.K., Australia and the Pacific Rim. We sell our products primarily through mass retail and home center stores, warehouse club stores, grocery stores, hardware stores, automotive parts outlets and industrial distributors and suppliers.

Highlights

Highlights for our business for the six months ended February 28, 2011, include the following:

• Consolidated net sales increased $1.9 million, or 1%, and consolidated net income decreased $1.9 million, or 9%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an unfavorable impact of $0.9 million on consolidated net sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on consolidated net income for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

• Sales of multi-purpose maintenance products increased 4% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to sales growth in the Europe and Asia-Pacific segments of 13% and 44%, respectively. Sales of multi-purpose maintenance products in the Europe segment increased primarily due to the continued growth of the WD-40 Smart Straw product, an increased focus on the industrial channel and the ongoing growth of our base business. Sales of multi-purpose maintenance products in the Asia-Pacific segment increased due to improved economic conditions, significant promotional activities and the ongoing growth of our base business. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in sales of multi-purpose maintenance products in the Americas segment of 10% due to lower U.S. sales of WD-40 products. Sales of the WD-40 products in the U.S. decreased primarily due to lost distribution, a lower level of replenishment orders from and timing of promotional activities with certain of our key customers.

• Sales of homecare and cleaning products decreased 12% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to the sales decrease of 17% in the Americas segment related to Spot Shot products. Although we remain focused on stabilizing the sales of our homecare and cleaning products, sales of these products continue to be negatively impacted by competition, lost distribution and the volatility of orders from and promotional programs with customers, particularly those in the warehouse club and mass retail channels.

• Our gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 51.4% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 51.9% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to several factors. Gross margin was unfavorably impacted by the combined effects of changes in the costs of petroleum-based materials and aerosol cans, sales mix changes and the impact of unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates from period to period. These unfavorable items were partially offset by lower advertising and promotional discounts and the impact of sales price increases from period to period.

Our core strategic initiatives and the areas where we will continue to focus our time and resources for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 and in future periods include: (i) expanding geographically in countries where end users could benefit from or continue to benefit from using the WD-40 brand; (ii) maximizing our position in the multi-purpose maintenance products segment by focusing our research and development resources to leverage our multi-purpose maintenance products and adjacent categories; (iii) developing our business through acquisitions, joint ventures, licensing and/or other strategic partnerships; and (iv) leveraging the trust the WD-40 brand has established with its wide user base to grow our revenues and profits.

Sales in the Americas segment, which includes the U.S., Canada and Latin America, decreased to $38.1 million, down $6.1 million, or 14%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Sales of multi-purpose maintenance products in the Americas segment decreased $4.7 million, or 14%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. This sales decrease was driven by lower sales of WD-40 products in the U.S. which were down $5.0 million, or 20%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to a lower level of replenishment orders from and promotional activities with certain of our key customers. As a result of

21

fluctuations in the promotional patterns with certain of our key customers, particularly those in the mass retail, home center and warehouse club channels, it is common for our sales to vary period over period and year and year.

Sales of homecare and cleaning products in the Americas segment decreased $1.4 million, or 12%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Although we remain focused on stabilizing the sales of our homecare and cleaning products, sales of these products continue to be negatively impacted by competition, lost distribution and the volatility of orders from and promotional programs with certain customers, particularly those in the warehouse club and mass retail channels. Sales of homecare and cleaning products in the U.S., which is where the majority of such sales originate, decreased $1.2 million, or 12%, from period to period. This sales decrease was driven primarily by lower sales of Spot Shot products, which were down $0.8 million, or 15%, in the U.S. for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease in Spot Shot sales was due to several factors, including the timing and lower level of promotional activities, specifically those within the warehouse club channel, lost distribution and the effect of competitive factors. Sales of our automatic toilet bowl cleaners in the Americas segment also decreased $0.5 million, or 15%, from period to period due to lost distribution and competitive factors.

For the Americas segment, 79% of sales came from the U.S., and 21% of sales came from Canada and Latin America combined for the three months ended February 28, 2011, compared to the distribution for the three months ended February 28, 2010, when 82% of sales came from the U.S., and 18% of sales came from Canada and Latin America combined.

Europe

The following table summarizes net sales by product line for the Europe segment (in thousands, except percentages):

	Three Months Ended February 28,
							Change from Prior Year
	2011			2010			Dollars			Percent
Multi-purpose maintenance products	$	29,804		$	26,590		$	3,214			12	%
Homecare and cleaning products		1,953			2,044			(91	)		(4	)%
Total	$	31,757		$	28,634		$	3,123			11	%
% of consolidated net sales		40	%		35	%

Sales in the Europe segment increased to $31.8 million, up $3.1 million, or 11%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year had an unfavorable impact on sales. Sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 translated at the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year would have been $32.7 million in the Europe segment. Thus, on a constant currency basis, sales would have increased by $4.0 million, or 14%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

The countries in Europe where we sell through a direct sales force include the U.K., Italy, France, Iberia (which includes Spain and Portugal) and the Germanics sales region (which includes Germany, Austria, Denmark, Holland, Switzerland and Belgium). Overall, sales from direct markets decreased $0.4 million, or 2%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We experienced sales increases in Italy and France of 22% and 10%, respectively, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. More than offsetting these sales increases were sales decreases in the Germanics sales region, Iberia and the U.K. of 10%, 6% and 3%, respectively, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

The sales growth in Italy and France was primarily due to new distribution, the continued growth of the WD-40 Smart Straw product, our increased focus on the industrial channel and the ongoing growth of our base business. The sales decreases in the Germanics sales region, Iberia and the U.K. were primarily due to the unfavorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Sales from direct markets accounted for 65% of the Europe segment’s sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 72% of the Europe segment’s sales for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

22

In the countries in which we sell through local distributors, sales increased $3.5 million, or 46%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased sales of WD-40 products in Eastern Europe and Northern Europe as a result of increased promotional activities and the ongoing growth of our base business. The distributor markets accounted for 35% of the total Europe segment’s sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011, compared to 28% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Asia-Pacific

The following table summarizes net sales by product line for the Asia-Pacific segment (in thousands, except percentages):

	Three Months Ended February 28,
							Change from Prior Year
	2011			2010			Dollars		Percent
Multi-purpose maintenance products	$	7,699		$	6,395		$	1,304		20	%
Homecare and cleaning products		1,664			1,307			357		27	%
Total	$	9,363		$	7,702		$	1,661		22	%
% of consolidated net sales		12	%		10	%

In the Asia-Pacific segment, which includes Asia and Australia, sales increased to $9.4 million, up $1.7 million, or 22%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year had a favorable impact on sales. Sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 translated at the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year would have been $9.1 million in the Asia-Pacific segment. Thus, on a constant currency basis, sales would have increased by $1.4 million, or 17%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Sales in Asia, which represented 60% of the total sales in the Asia-Pacific segment for the three months ended February 28, 2011, increased $1.0 million, or 20%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to improved economic conditions throughout the Asia region. The distributor markets in the Asia region experienced a sales increase of $0.5 million, or 15%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the continued growth of the WD-40 products throughout the distributor markets, including those in Indonesia, the Philippines and Korea. Sales in China increased $0.5 million, or 38%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to the ongoing growth of our base business and the timing of promotional activities.

Sales in Australia increased $0.7 million, or 24%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year partially due to the favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. On a constant currency basis, sales would have increased $0.4 million, or 12%, for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to improved economic conditions and the ongoing growth of our base business.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased to $41.0 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to $42.2 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased slightly to 51.8% for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 52.4% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to a variety of items which offset each other, including costs associated with petroleum-based materials and aerosol cans, sales mix changes, sales price increases and the level of discounts offered to our customers.

Gross margin was negatively impacted by 0.4 percentage points due to the combined effects of changes in the costs of petroleum-based materials and aerosol cans from period to period. There is often a delay of one quarter or more before changes in raw material costs impact cost of products sold due to production and inventory life cycles. As a

23

result of an aerosol can price increase that our suppliers implemented in January 2011 and the continued pressures on the costs associated with petroleum-based materials, we expect that raw materials will continue to have a negative impact on our cost of products sold in future periods.

Sales mix changes unfavorably impacted gross margin by 0.7 percentage points for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. In addition, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other miscellaneous items when combined unfavorably impacted gross margin by 0.2 percentage points from period to period.

Partially offsetting the aforementioned unfavorable impacts to gross margin were sales price increases and a lower level of advertising, promotional and other discounts offered to our customers from period to period. Sales price increases implemented on certain products during the three months ended February 28, 2011 positively affected gross margin by 0.3 percentage points. Advertising, promotional and other discounts decreased during the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year positively impacting gross margin by 0.4 percentage points. The decrease in such discounts was due to the fact that a lower percentage of sales during the three months ended February 28, 2011 was subject to promotional allowances compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. In general, the timing of advertising, promotional and other discounts, which are recorded as a reduction to sales, as well as shifts in product and customer mix, may cause fluctuations in gross margin from period to period. Examples of advertising, promotional and other discounts include coupon redemptions, consideration and allowances given to retailers for space and/or favorable display positions in their stores, co-operative advertising and promotional activity, volume discounts and other one-time or ongoing incentives.

Note that our gross profits and gross margins may not be comparable to those of other reporting entities, since some entities include all costs related to distribution of their products in cost of products sold, whereas we exclude the portion associated with amounts paid to third parties for distribution to our customers from our contract packagers and include these costs in selling, general and administrative expenses. These costs totaled $3.4 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2011 increased $1.5 million, or 8%, to $21.6 million from $20.1 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 27.3% for the three months ended February 28, 2011 from 24.9% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in SG&A expenses was largely attributable to higher employee-related costs and increased freight and professional services costs. Employee-related costs, which include salaries, bonuses, profit sharing, stock-based compensation and other fringe benefits, increased $0.3 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in employee-related costs from period to period was primarily due to annual compensation increases and higher staffing levels, which were significantly offset by lower bonus expenses. Professional services costs increased $0.5 million due to higher consulting and legal fees. Freight costs increased $0.3 million primarily due to higher diesel costs for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Other miscellaneous expenses, which include travel and meeting expenses and research and development expenses increased by $0.4 million period over period. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on SG&A expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

We continued our research and development investment, the majority of which is associated with our multi-purpose maintenance products, in support of our focus on innovation and renovation of our products. Research and development costs for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010 were $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Our product development team, Team Tomorrow, engages in consumer research, product development, current product improvement and testing activities. This team leverages its development capabilities by partnering with a network of outside resources including our current and prospective outsource suppliers. We have recently developed a new WD-40 Specialist line of products which consist of certain specialty products aimed at current users of the WD-40 brand. We plan to launch some of the products in this line in the U.S. and U.K. at the end of the current fiscal year.

Advertising and Sales Promotion Expenses

Advertising and sales promotion expenses remained constant at $5.4 million for each of the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses increased to 6.8% for the three months ended February 28, 2011 from 6.6% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on advertising and sales promotion expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Investment in global advertising and sales promotion expenses for fiscal year 2011 is expected to be in the range of 6.5% to 8.0% of net sales.

As a percentage of net sales, advertising and sales promotion expenses may fluctuate period to period based upon the type of marketing activities we employ and the period in which the costs are incurred. The costs of certain promotional activities are required to be recorded as a reduction to sales, while others are recorded as advertising and sales promotion expenses. Total promotional costs recorded as a reduction to sales for the three months ended February 28, 2011 were $3.5 million compared to $3.3 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Therefore, our total investment in advertising and sales promotion activities totaled $8.9 million and $8.7 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Amortization of Definite-lived Intangible Assets Expense

Amortization of our definite-lived intangible assets, which included the Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names and the 1001 non-contractual customer relationships, was $181,000 and $185,000 for the three months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Non-Operating Items

The following table summarizes non-operating income and expenses for our consolidated operations (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended February 28,
	2011		2010		Change
Interest income	$	53	$	40	$	13
Interest expense	$	219	$	401	$	(182	)
Other expense, net	$	119	$	36	$	83
Provision for income taxes	$	4,468	$	5,538	$	(1,070	)

Interest Income

Interest income increased for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher average cash balances during the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $0.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to the lower principal balance on long-term borrowings resulting from the annual $10.7 million principal payment made in October 2010.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net increased $0.1 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher foreign currency exchange losses for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was 32.9% of income before taxes for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 34.2% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to the increasing income from our foreign operations which are taxed at lower rates when compared to domestic rates and

25

the increase in the tax benefit associated with the qualified domestic production activities deduction. The decrease was also due to the reversal of uncertain tax position reserves due to various state audit settlements, the release of the remaining valuation allowance on foreign net operating loss carryforwards, and the tax impact of the recent reinstatement of the federal research and development credit on our 2010 and 2011 fiscal years.

Net Income

Net income was $9.1 million, or $0.53 per common share on a fully diluted basis for the three months ended February 28, 2011, compared to $10.7 million, or $0.64 per common share on a fully diluted basis for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The change in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on net income for the three months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Sales in the Americas segment, which includes the U.S., Canada and Latin America, decreased to $77.3 million, down $10.6 million, or 12%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Sales of multi-purpose maintenance products in the Americas segment decreased $6.2 million, or 10%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. This sales decrease was driven by lower sales of WD-40 products in the U.S. which were down $6.6 million, or 14%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to lost distribution, a lower level of replenishment orders from and the timing of promotional activities with certain of our key customers. As a result of fluctuations in the promotional patterns with certain of our key customers, particularly those in the mass retail, home center and warehouse club channels, it is common for our sales to vary period over period and year and year.

Sales of homecare and cleaning products in the Americas segment decreased $4.4 million, or 17%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Although we remain focused on stabilizing the sales of our homecare and cleaning products, sales of these products continue to be negatively impacted by competition, lost distribution and the volatility of orders from and promotional programs with certain customers, particularly those in the warehouse club and mass retail channels. Sales of homecare and cleaning products in the U.S., which is where the majority of such sales originate, decreased $4.2 million, or 18%, from period to period. This sales decrease was driven primarily by lower sales of Spot Shot products, which were down $3.2 million, or 30%, in the U.S. for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease in Spot Shot sales was due to several factors, including the timing and lower level of promotional activities, specifically those within the warehouse club channel, lost distribution and the effect of competitive factors. Sales of our automatic toilet bowl cleaners in the Americas segment also decreased $0.7 million, or 10%, from period to period due to lost distribution and competitive factors.

For the Americas segment, 79% of sales came from the U.S., and 21% of sales came from Canada and Latin America combined for the six months ended February 28, 2011, compared to the distribution for the six months ended February 28, 2010, when 82% of sales came from the U.S., and 18% of sales came from Canada and Latin America combined.

Europe

The following table summarizes net sales by product line for the Europe segment (in thousands, except percentages):

	Six Months Ended February 28,
							Change from Prior Year
	2011			2010			Dollars		Percent
Multi-purpose maintenance products	$	58,347		$	51,751		$	6,596		13	%
Homecare and cleaning products		4,167			4,130			37		1	%
Total	$	62,514		$	55,881		$	6,633		12	%
% of consolidated net sales		39	%		35	%

Sales in the Europe segment increased to $62.5 million, up $6.6 million, or 12%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year had an unfavorable impact on sales. Sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 translated at the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year would have been $64.4 million in the Europe segment. Thus, on a constant currency basis, sales would have increased by $8.5 million, or 15%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

The countries in Europe where we sell through a direct sales force include the U.K., Italy, France, Iberia (which includes Spain and Portugal) and the Germanics sales region (which includes Germany, Austria, Denmark, Holland, Switzerland and Belgium). Overall, sales from direct markets increased $2.2 million, or 6%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We experienced sales growth throughout most of the Europe segment for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, with percentage increases in sales as follows: Italy, 24%; U.K., 11%;

27

France, 5%; and the Germanics sales region, 2%. Partially offsetting these sales increases was a sales decrease in Iberia of 6% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

The sales growth throughout most of the Europe segment direct markets was primarily due to new distribution, the continued growth of the WD-40 Smart Straw product, our increased focus on the industrial channel and the ongoing growth of our base business. The sales decrease in Iberia was solely related to the unfavorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates which more than offset the sales increase in local currency of 2% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Sales from direct markets accounted for 65% of the Europe segment’s sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 67% of the Europe segment’s sales for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

In the countries in which we sell through local distributors, sales increased $4.4 million, or 25%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased sales of WD-40 products in Eastern Europe and Northern Europe as a result of increased promotional activities and the ongoing growth of our base business. The distributor markets accounted for 35% of the total Europe segment’s sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011, compared to 33% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Asia-Pacific

The following table summarizes net sales by product line for the Asia-Pacific segment (in thousands, except percentages):

	Six Months Ended February 28,
							Change from Prior Year
	2011			2010			Dollars		Percent
Multi-purpose maintenance products	$	17,233		$	11,994		$	5,239		44	%
Homecare and cleaning products		3,085			2,503			582		23	%
Total	$	20,318		$	14,497		$	5,821		40	%
% of consolidated net sales		13	%		9	%

In the Asia-Pacific segment, which includes Asia and Australia, sales increased to $20.3 million, up $5.8 million, or 40%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year had a favorable impact on sales. Sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 translated at the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year would have been $19.6 million in the Asia-Pacific segment. Thus, on a constant currency basis, sales would have increased by $5.1 million, or 35%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Sales in Asia, which represented 65% of the total sales in the Asia-Pacific segment for the six months ended February 28, 2011, increased $4.4 million, or 50%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to improved economic conditions throughout the Asia region. The distributor markets in the Asia region experienced a sales increase of $2.9 million, or 43%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the continued growth of the WD-40 products throughout the distributor markets, including those in Indonesia, the Philippines and Korea. Sales in China increased $1.5 million, or 76%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to the ongoing growth of our base business and significant promotional activities that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 aimed at building user awareness and distribution in the China region.

Sales in Australia increased $1.4 million, or 25%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year partially due to the favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. On a constant currency basis, sales would have increased $0.8 million, or 14%, for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to improved economic conditions, promotional activities with several key customers during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 and the ongoing growth of our base business.

28

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased to $82.3 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to $82.1 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased slightly to 51.4% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 51.9% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to a variety of items which offset each other, including costs associated with petroleum-based materials and aerosol cans, sales mix changes, sales price increases and the level of discounts offered to our customers.

Gross margin was negatively impacted by 0.5 percentage points due to the combined effects of changes in the costs of petroleum-based materials and aerosol cans from period to period. There is often a delay of one quarter or more before changes in raw material costs impact cost of products sold due to production and inventory life cycles. As a result of an aerosol can price increase that our suppliers implemented in January 2011 and the continued pressures on the costs associated with petroleum-based materials, we expect that raw materials will continue to have a negative impact on our cost of products sold in future periods.

Sales mix changes unfavorably impacted gross margin by 0.4 percentage points for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. In addition, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other miscellaneous items when combined unfavorably impacted gross margin by 0.3 percentage points from period to period.

Partially offsetting the aforementioned unfavorable impacts to gross margin were sales price increases and a lower level of advertising, promotional and other discounts offered to our customers from period to period. Sales price increases implemented on certain products during the six months ended February 28, 2011 positively affected gross margin by 0.2 percentage points. Advertising, promotional and other discounts decreased during the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year positively impacting gross margin by 0.5 percentage points. The decrease in such discounts was due to the fact that a lower percentage of sales during the six months ended February 28, 2011 was subject to promotional allowances compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. In general, the timing of advertising, promotional and other discounts, which are recorded as a reduction to sales, as well as shifts in product and customer mix, may cause fluctuations in gross margin from period to period. Examples of advertising, promotional and other discounts include coupon redemptions, consideration and allowances given to retailers for space and/or favorable display positions in their stores, co-operative advertising and promotional activity, volume discounts and other one-time or ongoing incentives.

Note that our gross profits and gross margins may not be comparable to those of other reporting entities, since some entities include all costs related to distribution of their products in cost of products sold, whereas we exclude the portion associated with amounts paid to third parties for distribution to our customers from our contract packagers and include these costs in selling, general and administrative expenses. These costs totaled $6.8 million and $6.5 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2011 increased $3.4 million, or 9%, to $43.3 million from $39.9 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 27.0% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 from 25.2% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in SG&A expenses was largely attributable to higher employee-related costs, a higher level of expenses associated with travel and meetings, and increased freight and professional services costs. Employee-related costs, which include salaries, bonuses, profit sharing, stock-based compensation and other fringe benefits, increased $0.8 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in employee-related costs from period to period was primarily due to annual compensation increases, which were implemented in the first quarter of the current fiscal year and not in the prior fiscal year, and higher staffing levels. These increases in employee-related costs were partially offset by the lower bonus expenses from period to period. Travel and meeting expenses increased $0.7 million due to a higher level of travel expenses associated with various sales meetings and activities in support of our strategic initiatives. Professional services costs increased $0.9 million due to higher consulting and legal fees. Freight costs increased $0.4 million primarily due to increased diesel costs and slightly higher sales

29

volumes for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Other miscellaneous expenses, which include broker sales commissions, research and development expenses and general office expenses increased by $0.6 million period over period. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on SG&A expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

We continued our research and development investment, the majority of which is associated with our multi-purpose maintenance products, in support of our focus on innovation and renovation of our products. Research and development costs for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010 were $2.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Our product development team, Team Tomorrow, engages in consumer research, product development, current product improvement and testing activities. This team leverages its development capabilities by partnering with a network of outside resources including our current and prospective outsource suppliers. We have recently developed a new WD-40 Specialist line of products which consist of certain specialty products aimed at current users of the WD-40 brand. We plan to launch some of the products in this line in the U.S. and U.K. at the end of the current fiscal year.

Advertising and Sales Promotion Expenses

Advertising and sales promotion expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2011 increased $0.8 million, or 8%, to $11.4 million from $10.6 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses increased to 7.1% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 from 6.7% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in advertising and sales promotion expenses was due to a higher level of advertising and promotional activities period over period, primarily in our Europe and Asia-Pacific segments. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on advertising and sales promotion expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Investment in global advertising and sales promotion expenses for fiscal year 2011 is expected to be in the range of 6.5% to 8.0% of net sales.

As a percentage of net sales, advertising and sales promotion expenses may fluctuate period to period based upon the type of marketing activities we employ and the period in which the costs are incurred. The costs of certain promotional activities are required to be recorded as a reduction to sales, while others are recorded as advertising and sales promotion expenses. Total promotional costs recorded as a reduction to sales for the six months ended February 28, 2011 were $8.0 million compared to $8.2 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Therefore, our total investment in advertising and sales promotion activities totaled $19.4 million and $18.8 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Amortization of Definite-lived Intangible Assets Expense

Amortization of our definite-lived intangible assets, which included the Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names and the 1001 non-contractual customer relationships, was $363,000 and $370,000 for the six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Non-Operating Items

The following table summarizes non-operating income and expenses for our consolidated operations (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended February 28,
	2011		2010		Change
Interest income	$	108	$	75	$	33
Interest expense	$	541	$	925	$	(384	)
Other income, net	$	78	$	78	$	—
Provision for income taxes	$	8,641	$	10,479	$	(1,838	)

30

Interest Income

Interest income increased for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher average cash balances during the first six months of fiscal year 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $0.4 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due to the lower principal balance on long-term borrowings resulting from the annual $10.7 million principal payment made in October 2010.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net remained constant at $0.1 million for each of the six month periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was 32.2% for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to 34.3% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the increasing income from our foreign operations which are taxed at lower rates when compared to domestic rates and the increase in the tax benefit associated with the qualified domestic production activities deduction. The decrease was also due to favorable provision adjustments, most of which were recorded during the three months ended November 30, 2010, the reversal of uncertain tax position reserves due to various state audit settlements, the release of the remaining valuation allowance on foreign net operating loss carryforwards, and the tax impact of the recent reinstatement of the federal research and development credit on our 2010 and 2011 fiscal years.

Net Income

Net income was $18.2 million, or $1.06 per common share on a fully diluted basis for the six months ended February 28, 2011, compared to $20.1 million, or $1.20 per common share on a fully diluted basis for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The change in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material impact on net income for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Performance Measures and Non-GAAP Reconciliations

In managing our business operations and assessing our financial performance, we supplement the information provided by our financial statements with certain non-GAAP performance measures. These performance measures are part of our 50/30/20 rule, which includes gross margin, cost of doing business, and EBITDA, the latter two of which are non-GAAP performance measures. Cost of doing business is defined as total operating expenses less amortization of definite-lived intangible assets and depreciation in operating departments and EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We target our gross margin to be at or above 50% of net sales, our cost of doing business to be at or below 30% of net sales, and our EBITDA to be at or above 20% of net sales. Although our results for these performance measures may vary from period to period depending on various factors, including economic conditions and our level of investment in activities for the future, we continue to focus on and work towards achievement of our 50/30/20 targets over the long-term.

The following table summarizes the results of these performance measures for the three and six months ended February 28, 2011 and 2010:

	Three Months Ended February 28,						Six Months Ended February 28,
	2011			2010			2011			2010
Gross margin		52	%		52	%		51	%		52	%
Cost of doing business as a percentage of net sales		34	%		31	%		34	%		31	%
EBITDA as a percentage of net sales		18	%		22	%		18	%		21	%

31

We use the performance measures above to establish financial goals and to gain an understanding of the comparative performance of the Company from period to period. We believe that these measures provide our shareholders with additional insights into the Company’s results of operations and how we run our business. The non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental in nature and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, income from operations or other financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP as indicators of the Company’s performance or operations. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to our financial statements as prepared in accordance with GAAP are as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

The Company’s financial condition and liquidity remain strong. Net cash provided by operations was $8.0 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to $23.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. We believe we continue to be well positioned to weather any uncertainty in the capital markets and global economy due to our strong balance sheet and efficient business model, along with our growing and diversified global revenues. We continue to manage all aspects of our business including, but not limited to, monitoring the financial health of our customers, suppliers and other third-party relationships, implementing gross margin enhancement strategies and developing new opportunities for growth.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and cash available from our $10.0 million revolving credit facility, which expires in October 2011, and is currently undrawn. At February 28, 2011, we had a total of $67.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. We believe that these existing cash and cash equivalents at February 28, 2011, the liquidity provided by our revolving credit facility and our anticipated cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet the projected operating and capital requirements for our current business plans. We consider various factors when reviewing liquidity needs and plans for available cash on hand including: future debt, principal and interest payments, early debt repayment penalties, future capital expenditure requirements, stock repurchases, future dividend payments (which are determined on a quarterly basis by the Company’s Board of Directors), alternative investment opportunities, loan covenants and any other relevant considerations currently facing our business.

The outstanding indebtedness under our original $75 million, 7.28% fixed-rate term loan was $10.7 million as of February 28, 2011. The final payment on this term loan is due in October 2011.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows by category for the periods presented (in thousands):

	Six Months Ended February 28,
	2011			2010			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	7,959		$	23,423		$	(15,464	)
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(1,186	)	$	(698	)	$	(488	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(17,188	)	$	(18,018	)	$	830

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $15.5 million to $8.0 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 from $23.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Cash provided by operating activities decreased for the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a decrease in net income and changes in operating assets and liabilities, changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses and liabilities, inventories, other assets and income taxes payable. Accounts payable and accrued expenses and liabilities decreased from period to period primarily due to the payment of fiscal year 2010 bonuses during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 which were significantly higher than those paid in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Inventories increased due to additional purchases in support of promotions in the upcoming quarters and purchases associated with innovation initiatives and/or supply chain initiatives. Other assets, which include income taxes receivable amounts, decreased and income taxes payable increased both of which were primarily due to the timing of income tax accruals and the related payments during the six months ended February 28, 2011 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities increased $0.5 million to $1.2 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 from $0.7 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to higher capital expenditures. Capital expenditures during the six months ended February 28, 2011 were primarily for machinery and equipment, computer equipment and software.

Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities decreased $0.8 million to $17.2 million for the six months ended February 28, 2011 from $18.0 million for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to significantly higher proceeds from the issuance of common stock which were significantly offset by treasury stock purchases which were transacted during the second quarter of fiscal year 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Commercial Commitments

We have relationships with various suppliers (contract manufacturers) who manufacture our products. Although we typically do not have definitive minimum purchase obligations included in the contract terms with the contract manufacturers, when such obligations have been included, they have been immaterial to date. Supply needs are communicated by us to our contract manufacturers, and we are committed to purchase the products produced based on orders and short-term projections, ranging from two to five months, provided to the contract manufacturers. We are also obligated to purchase obsolete or slow-moving inventory from our contract manufacturers and have done so in the past under these commitments, the amounts of which have been immaterial.

In addition to the commitments to purchase products from contract manufacturers described above, we may also enter into commitments with other manufacturers to purchase finished goods and components to support innovation initiatives and/or supply chain initiatives. As of February 28, 2011, no such commitments were outstanding.

Share Repurchase Plan

On December 14, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share buy-back plan, which is in effect through December 13, 2011. Under the plan, we are authorized to acquire up to $25.0 million of our outstanding shares on such terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto. During the period from December 14, 2010 through February 28, 2011, we repurchased 243,500 shares at a total cost of $9.6 million.

On April 4, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase to the existing $25.0 million share buy-back plan, which was previously approved on December 14, 2010, to authorize the Company to acquire an additional $35.0 million of its outstanding shares and to extend the expiration date of the plan to April 4, 2013. As a result, the Company is now authorized to acquire shares of its common stock in the aggregate amount of $60.0 million, less the $9.6 million utilized to date, subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto.

Dividends

On March 22, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.27 per share payable on April 29, 2011 to shareholders of record on April 15, 2011. Our ability to pay dividends could be affected by future business performance, liquidity, capital needs, alternative investment opportunities and loan covenants.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our operating results and financial condition is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Critical accounting policies are those that involve subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates. The following areas all require the use of judgments and estimates: revenue recognition and sales incentives, allowance for doubtful accounts, accounting for income taxes and valuation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Estimates in each of these areas are based on historical experience and various judgments and assumptions that we believe are appropriate. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

There have been no changes to the items disclosed as critical accounting policies in Part II — Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of our Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, with the exception of the changes that we made to the critical accounting policy on the valuation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as it relates to the results of the annual impairment test and evaluation that we conducted in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011.

Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

The carrying values of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment in accordance with the authoritative guidance on goodwill, intangibles and other. We assess possible impairments to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets at least annually during our second fiscal quarter and otherwise when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment condition may exist. In addition, indefinite-lived intangible assets are evaluated each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. In performing the annual impairment test of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, we consider the new fair value concepts of a market participant and the highest and best use for our intangible assets.

We test for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level based on a two-step process which is conducted by applying fair value concepts. First, the book value of our net assets is compared to the fair value of the net assets of the reporting units that have goodwill assigned to them. If the fair value is determined to be less than book value, a second step is performed to compute the amount of impairment. In the second step, the implied fair value of goodwill is estimated as the fair value of the reporting unit used in the first step less the fair values of all other net tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value,

34

an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill. Any required impairment losses are recorded as a reduction in the carrying amount of the related asset and charged to results of operations.

We test for impairment of our indefinite-lived intangible assets based on a discounted cash flow approach that requires significant management judgment and estimates with respect to, among other considerations, forecasted sales revenue, advertising and promotional expenses, cost of products sold, gross margins, operating margins, the success of product innovations and introductions, customer retention, tax rates, terminal growth values and the selection of appropriate discount and royalty rates. Many of the factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and it is reasonably likely that assumptions and estimates will change in future periods. These changes could result in future impairments. For our indefinite-lived intangible assets, an impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount and is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

Events and circumstances that we consider important which could trigger impairment include the following:

• Significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;

• Significant changes in the extent or manner to which an acquired asset is being utilized by the Company;

• Significant negative industry or global economic trends;

• Significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period;

• Decreased market capitalization relative to net book value;

• Unanticipated competitive activities;

• Loss of key distribution;

• Change in consumer demand;

• Loss of key personnel; and

• Acts by governments and courts.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, we performed our annual impairment test of goodwill. Based on the results of this test, we determined that our goodwill was not impaired since the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by more than 10% as of February 28, 2011. To date, we have not identified or recorded any impairment losses related to our goodwill.

During fiscal year 2009, we recorded impairments to certain of our indefinite-lived intangible assets, all of which were related to brands included in our homecare and cleaning products line, based on the results of our annual or subsequent events and circumstances driven impairment tests. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, we determined, while performing our annual impairment tests, that our indefinite-lived intangible asset related to our Carpet Fresh brand was impaired as of February 28, 2009. Due to the declines in profit margin and forecasted sales revenue for the Carpet Fresh brand, both of which occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, we concluded that the Carpet Fresh trade name was impaired by $2.8 million as of February 28, 2009. The decline in forecasted sales revenue for the Carpet Fresh brand resulted from our strategic decision to focus our research and development resources on our multi-purpose maintenance products and not our homecare and cleaning products, the loss of distribution with a significant U.S. mass retail customer and assumed lower future foreign currency exchange rates in the U.K. and Australia. While some of these factors also impacted the indefinite-lived intangible assets related to our other homecare and cleaning product brands, they did not result in impairment to any of such other indefinite-lived intangible assets as of February 28, 2009.

During the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2009, we reevaluated our indefinite-lived intangible assets and determined that indicators of potential impairment existed due to lower than forecasted sales revenue for several of our homecare and cleaning products, including the Carpet Fresh, X-14, Spot Shot and 2000 Flushes brands. As a result, we tested these indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment for both periods. For the test conducted during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, we concluded that no impairment existed as of May 31, 2009. For the test conducted during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, we concluded that the intangible assets associated with our Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names were impaired by $3.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, as of August 31, 2009.

Due to the continued sales declines in fiscal year 2009 and the lower level of forecasted sales for the Carpet Fresh and X-14 brands which were caused by a variety of factors, including lost distribution and our strategic decision to focus our research and development resources on our multi-purpose maintenance products, we concluded that these

35

two trade names should no longer be considered to have indefinite lives. As a result, effective August 31, 2009, we changed the classification of the Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names from indefinite-lived to definite-lived intangible assets. We began to amortize the Carpet Fresh and X-14 trade names on a straight-line basis effective on September 1, 2009 based on their estimated remaining useful lives of thirteen and eight years, respectively.

No impairment was identified or recorded related to our indefinite-lived intangible assets during fiscal year 2010 and no events or circumstances occurred during this period that indicated that an indefinite life was no longer warranted for any of these intangible assets.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, we conducted the annual impairment test for our indefinite-lived intangible assets, which included the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names. All three of these trade names generate their own revenue streams and the revenues for each are in no way dependent on the revenue streams of any of the other trade names. Based on the results of this annual impairment test, we determined that none of these intangible assets were impaired as of February 28, 2011. Although no impairment was identified during this annual impairment test, the amount by which the fair values exceeded the carrying values for two of the three trade names decreased from the fiscal year 2010 annual impairment test. This is due to the manner in which the Company plans to manage these trade names in future periods, the decreased sales for these trade names in recent periods and the lower level of forecasted sales for these trade names in future periods.

In conjunction with the annual impairment test that was conducted in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, we also performed an evaluation of our indefinite-lived intangible assets to determine whether an indefinite life for each trade name was still warranted as of February 28, 2011. As a result of this evaluation, we determined that events and circumstance had occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2011 which indicated that the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names should no longer be considered to have indefinite lives. These events and circumstances included the following, all of which indicate that these three trade names are definite-lived:

• Our strategic decision to divert research and development resources from our 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names so that we can focus more specifically and continue to gain momentum on the development and extension of our multi-purpose maintenance products;

• The tactical manner in which we intend to manage all three trade names in future periods;

• Lost distribution within certain channels for these trade names, which we may or may not be able to recover in future periods;

• The recent increased variability of promotional activities with certain of our key customers for these trade names, which we may or may not be able to reverse in future periods; and

• A lower level of forecasted sales for each of these trade names as a result of decreased sales for each in recent periods and the manner in which we intend to manage these trade names in future periods.

As a result of the aforementioned events and circumstances, we determined that it was appropriate to change the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names from indefinite-lived to definite-lived intangibles effective February 28, 2011.

We determined the estimated remaining economic lives of the 2000 Flushes, Spot Shot and 1001 trade names based on future forecasted cash flows for these trade names, as well as the consideration of various other factors. These factors included the strength of each trade name and their respective market share within the category in which each operates, the stability of the household cleaning products industry, the fact that these trade names have been in existence for a long period of time and are expected to remain in existence for a significant number of years in the future and the fact that no legal, regulatory, or contractual conditions currently exist that would limit their remaining useful lives. After taking all of these factors into consideration, we concluded that the 1001 trade name will generate future cash flows for at least the next twenty years and the 2000 Flushes and Spot Shot trade names will generate future cash flows for at least the next seventeen years. As a result, these are the periods over which each trade name will be amortized on a straight-line basis beginning on March 1, 2011. In future periods, total amortization expense of approximately $0.4 million quarterly or $1.6 million annually will be recorded associated with these three trade names.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated authoritative guidance related to when to perform step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying

36

amounts. Per this updated authoritative guidance, when a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount, Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test will be performed if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The qualitative factors to be considered are consistent with the current interim impairment triggers for goodwill. Upon adoption, an entity will perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. Furthermore, any impairment identified at the time of adoption will be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. We are required to apply these new requirements in its fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2010. We have evaluated this updated authoritative guidance, and we do not expect it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued updated authoritative guidance related to financing receivables which enhances the disclosure requirements about the credit quality and related allowance for credit losses of financing receivables. This updated authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. We have evaluated this updated authoritative guidance, and we do not expect it to impact our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In January 2010, the FASB issued updated authoritative guidance related to fair value measurements which requires certain new disclosures related to activities in Level 3 fair value measurements, including purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. This updated authoritative guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. We do not expect the adoption of this updated authoritative guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Refer to Part II-Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on October 18, 2010.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of a Company that are designed to ensure the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of February 28, 2011, the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date), and they have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, such controls and procedures were effective at ensuring that required information will be disclosed on a timely basis in the Company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act. Although management believes the Company’s existing disclosure controls and procedures are adequate to enable the Company to comply with its disclosure obligations, management continues to review and update such controls and procedures. The Company has a disclosure committee, which consists of certain members of the Company’s senior management.

There were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or would be reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various claims, legal actions and complaints, including product liability litigation, arising in the ordinary course of business.

On October 3, 2010, a legal action was filed against the Company in the United States Federal Court for the Eastern District of Texas (Promote Innovation, LLC v. WD-40 Company). The complaint is a qui tam action brought by the plaintiff on behalf of the United States of America for alleged violation of Section 292 of the Patent Act (Title 35 U.S. Code, Section 292) for false patent marking. The complaint alleges that the Company included reference to an expired patent on certain product packaging, specifically including 2000 Flushes brand products, with an intent to deceive the public. The complaint seeks to recover a civil monetary fine of $500 per false marking offense, or an alternative amount determined by the court, one-half of which is to be paid to the United States. The Company intends to vigorously defend this claim of intentional false patent marking. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss from this action is remote.

On June 18, 2010, a legal action, entitled Andrea Burns v. WD-40 Company, was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for the County of Orange (“Burns”). The complaint seeks class action status and alleges that the Company misrepresented that its 2000 Flushes Bleach and 2000 Flushes Blue Plus Bleach automatic toilet bowl cleaners (“ATBCs”) are safe for plumbing systems and unlawfully omitted to advise consumers regarding the allegedly damaging effect the use of the ATBCs has on toilet parts made of plastic and rubber. The plaintiff seeks damages and/or restitution, an injunction and other relief, including punitive damages, attorneys fees and costs.

The Burns action is substantively similar to three previous legal proceedings filed against the Company since 2002. Each of the prior actions was dismissed, including the most recent proceeding, Drimmer v. WD-40 Company (“Drimmer”), a case filed by the same plaintiff law firm in April 2006 in the United States District Court, Southern District of California. In August 2008, the Company defeated the Drimmer plaintiff’s motion for class certification, a decision that was upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in September 2009. The Drimmer action was subsequently dismissed with prejudice in March 2010.

In the Burns action, the parties have conducted limited discovery, including the Company’s deposition of the plaintiff in March 2011 to determine the facts upon which the plaintiff bases its individual claims and suitability as a proposed class representative. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss in Burns is remote.

Since 2004, the Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits brought by a group of attorneys on behalf of individual plaintiffs who assert that exposure to products that allegedly contain benzene is a cause of certain cancers (the “Benzene Lawsuits”). The Company is one of many defendants in these legal proceedings whose products are alleged to contain benzene. However, the Company specifies that its suppliers provide constituent ingredients free of benzene. The Company believes its products have always been formulated without containing benzene and that the facts developed in litigation to date support this position. The plaintiffs in the Benzene Lawsuits typically seek damages in unspecified amounts for injuries or death attributable to a form of cancer linked to exposure to benzene. The Company is unable to quantify the total amount of damages asserted by the plaintiffs in the Benzene Lawsuits. Except for self-insured retention amounts applicable to each separately filed lawsuit, the Company expects that the Benzene Lawsuits will be adequately covered by insurance and will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Company is vigorously defending these lawsuits and continues to obtain dismissals reducing the number of pending actions. Based on information known to the Company at this time, the Company has concluded that its exposure to material loss from the Benzene Lawsuits is remote.

Other than set forth herein, during the quarter ended February 28, 2011, there were no developments with respect to legal proceedings that were pending as of the prior fiscal year end and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on October 18, 2010.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I — Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on October 18, 2010.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On December 14, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share buy-back plan, which is in effect through December 13, 2011. Under the plan, the Company is authorized to acquire up to $25.0 million of its outstanding shares on such terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto. During the period from December 14, 2010 through February 28, 2011, the Company repurchased 243,500 shares at a total cost of $9.6 million.

The following table provides information with respect to all purchases made by the Company during the three months ended February 28, 2011. All purchases listed below were made in the open market at prevailing market prices.

Total		243,500	$	39.21		243,500

On April 4, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase to the existing $25.0 million share buy-back plan, which was previously approved on December 14, 2010, to authorize the Company to acquire an additional $35.0 million of its outstanding shares and to extend the expiration date of the plan to April 4, 2013. As a result, the Company is now authorized to acquire shares of its common stock in the aggregate amount of $60.0 million, less the $9.6 million utilized to date, subject to lender approval from Prudential Capital and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto.
