We are actively managing the timing of inventory decisions by some of our customers, and our recent order trends reinforce our prior outlook for stronger organic sales growth in the second half of the year. As we navigate the near-term headwinds, we are controlling our costs while making strategic investments in new manufacturing capacity in both our Contract Manufacturing segment and our Proprietary Products segment, which positions us well for future organic sales growth.”

15 Notes to Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures The Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are incorporated into our discussion and analysis as management uses them in evaluating our results of operations and believes that this information provides users a valuable insight into our overall performance and financial position. A reconciliation of these adjusted Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying tables. For the purpose of aiding the comparison of our year-over-year results, we may refer to net sales and other financial results excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Organic net sales exclude the impact from acquisitions and/or divestitures and translate the current-period reported sales of subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. Dollar at the applicable foreign exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior-year period. We may also refer to financial results excluding the effects of unallocated items. The re-measured results excluding effects from currency translation, the impact from acquisitions and/or divestitures, and the effects of unallocated items are not in conformity with U.S. GAAP and should not be used as a substitute for the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Reconciliation of Reported-Diluted EPS Guidance to Adjusted-Diluted EPS Guidance 2023 Actual 2024 Guidance % Change Reported-diluted EPS (U.S. GAAP) $7.88 $7.59 to $7.84 (3.7%) to (0.5%) Loss on disposal of plant 0.16 - Cost investment activity 0.06 - Restructuring and other charges (0.02) - Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets 0.04 0.04 Legal settlement (0.04) - Adjusted-diluted EPS (Non-U.S. GAAP) (1) $8.08 $7.63 to $7.88 (5.6%) to (2.5%) (1) See “Full-year 2024 Financial Guidance” and “Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures” in today’s press release for additional information regarding adjusted-diluted EPS. We have opted not to forecast 2024 tax benefits from stock-based compensation in upcoming quarters, as they are out of the Company’s control. Instead, we recognize the benefits as they occur. In the first-quarter 2024, tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation increased adjusted-diluted EPS by $0.15. Any future tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation that we receive in 2024 would provide a positive adjustment to our full-year EPS guidance. In 2023, tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation increased adjusted-diluted EPS by $0.42. WST Q1 2024 Earnings
