NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of The Procter & Gamble Company and subsidiaries (the "Company," "Procter & Gamble," "P&G," "we" or "our") contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods reported. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of annual results.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements and Policies

In November 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2021-10, "Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance". This guidance requires annual disclosures for transactions with a government authority that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution model. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We have completed our evaluation of significant transactions. The guidance has not had, and is not expected to have, a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, "Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations". This guidance requires annual and interim disclosures for entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

No other new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal year had, or is expected to have, a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. Segment Information

Under U.S. GAAP, our operating segments are aggregated into five reportable segments: 1) Beauty, 2) Grooming, 3) Health Care, 4) Fabric & Home Care and 5) Baby, Feminine & Family Care. Our five reportable segments are comprised of:

(1)% of Net sales by operating segment excludes sales held in Corporate.

(2)Effective July 1, 2022, the Grooming Sector Business Unit completed the full integration of its Shave Care and Appliances categories to cohesively serve consumers' grooming needs. This transition included the integration of the management team, strategic decision-making, innovation plans, financial targets, budgets and internal management reporting. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, Appliances was presented in Other.

The following is a summary of reportable segment results:

4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is allocated by reportable segment as follows:

	Beauty		Grooming		Health Care		Fabric & Home Care		Baby, Feminine & Family Care		Total Company
Goodwill at June 30, 2022	$	13,296	$	12,571	$	7,589	$	1,808	$	4,436	$	39,700
Acquisitions and divestitures	—		—		—		—		34		34
Translation and other	88		53		44		4		28		217
Goodwill at December 31, 2022	$	13,384	$	12,624	$	7,633	$	1,812	$	4,498	$	39,951

Goodwill increased from June 30, 2022 primarily due to minor brand acquisitions in the Baby, Feminine & Family Care segment and currency translation.

Identifiable intangible assets at December 31, 2022 were comprised of:

	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Intangible assets with determinable lives	$	8,897	$	(6,268)
Intangible assets with indefinite lives	20,965		—
Total identifiable intangible assets	$	29,862	$	(6,268)

Intangible assets with determinable lives consist of brands, patents, technology and customer relationships. The intangible assets with indefinite lives primarily consist of brands. The amortization expense of determinable-lived intangible assets for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $79 and $74, respectively. For the six-months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, amortization expense was $159 and $151, respectively.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are tested at least annually for impairment. We use the income method to estimate the fair value of these assets, which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. If the resulting fair value is less than the asset's carrying value, that difference represents an impairment.

Most of our goodwill reporting units have fair value cushions that significantly exceed their underlying carrying values. In connection with the Grooming operating segment integration as described further in Note 3, we concluded that the Shave Care and Appliances categories are one reporting unit (Grooming) for goodwill impairment testing. Based on our impairment testing performed during the three months ended December 31, 2022, our Grooming goodwill reporting unit, which is comprised entirely of acquired businesses, has a fair value cushion of over 30% and the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset's fair value exceeded its carrying value by approximately 5%.

The Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset is most susceptible to future impairment risk. Adverse changes in the business or in the macroeconomic environment, including foreign currency devaluation, increasing global inflation, market contraction from an economic recession and the Russia-Ukraine War, could reduce the underlying cash flows used to estimate the fair value of the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset and trigger a future impairment charge. Further reduction of the Gillette business activities in Russia could reduce the estimated fair value by up to 5%.

The most significant assumptions utilized in the determination of the estimated fair value of the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset are the net sales growth rates (including residual growth rates), discount rate and royalty rates.

Net sales growth rates could be negatively impacted by reductions or changes in demand for our Gillette products, which may be caused by, among other things: changes in the use and frequency of grooming products, shifts in demand away from one or more of our higher priced products to lower priced products or potential supply chain constraints. In addition, relative global and country/regional macroeconomic factors, including the Russia-Ukraine War, could result in additional and prolonged devaluation of other countries' currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The residual growth rates represent the expected rate at which the Gillette brand is expected to grow beyond the shorter-term business planning period. The residual growth rates utilized in our fair value estimates are consistent with the brand operating plans and approximate expected long-term category market growth rates. The residual growth rate depends on overall market growth rates, the competitive environment, inflation, relative currency exchange rates and business activities that impact market share. As a result, the residual growth rate could be adversely impacted by a sustained deceleration in category growth, grooming habit changes, devaluation of currencies against the U.S. dollar or an increased competitive environment.

The discount rate, which is consistent with a weighted average cost of capital that is likely to be expected by a market participant, is based upon industry required rates of return, including consideration of both debt and equity components of the

Amounts in millions of dollars unless otherwise specified.

capital structure. Our discount rate may be impacted by adverse changes in the macroeconomic environment, volatility in the equity and debt markets or other country specific factors, such as further devaluation of currencies against the U.S. dollar. Spot rates as of the fair value measurement date are utilized in our fair value estimates for cash flows outside the U.S.

The royalty rate used to determine the estimated fair value for the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset is driven by historical and estimated future profitability of the underlying Gillette business. The royalty rate may be impacted by significant adverse changes in long-term operating margins.

We performed a sensitivity analysis for the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset during our annual impairment testing, utilizing reasonably possible changes in the assumptions for the discount rate, the short-term and residual growth rates and the royalty rates to demonstrate the potential impacts to estimated fair values. The table below provides, in isolation, the estimated fair value impacts related to a 25 basis-point increase in the discount rate, a 25 basis-point decrease in our short-term and residual growth rates or a 50 basis-point decrease in our royalty rates, which may result in an impairment of the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset.

5. Earnings Per Share

Basic net earnings per common share are calculated by dividing Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share are calculated by dividing Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The diluted shares include the dilutive effect of stock options and other stock-based awards based on the treasury stock method and the assumed conversion of preferred stock.

Net earnings per share were calculated as follows:

CONSOLIDATED AMOUNTS	Three Months Ended December 31				Six Months Ended December 31
	2022		2021		2022		2021

7. Risk Management Activities and Fair Value Measurements

As a multinational company with diverse product offerings, we are exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices. There have been no significant changes in our risk management policies or activities during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

The Company has not changed its valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period. The Company recognizes transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy, if any, at the end of each quarter. There were no transfers between levels during the periods presented. Also, there was no significant activity within the Level 3 assets and liabilities during the periods presented. There were no significant assets or liabilities that were remeasured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Cash equivalents were $5.1 billion and $6.0 billion as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively, and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. Other investments had a fair value of $86 and $140 as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively, including equity securities of $60 and $113 as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively, and are presented in Other noncurrent assets. Investments measured at fair value are primarily classified as Level 1 and Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments. There are no material investment balances classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy or using net asset value as a practical expedient. Unrealized losses on equity securities were $1 and $2 during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Unrealized gains/(losses) on equity securities were $8 and $(31) during the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These unrealized gains/(losses) are recognized in Other non-operating income, net.

The fair value of long-term debt was $22.7 billion and $25.7 billion as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. This includes the current portion of long-term debt instruments ($3.6 billion as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022). Certain long-term debt (debt designated as a fair value hedge) is recorded at fair value. All other long-term debt is recorded at amortized cost but is measured at fair value for disclosure purposes. We consider our debt to be Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values are generally estimated based on quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments.

Disclosures about Financial Instruments

The notional amounts and fair values of financial instruments used in hedging transactions as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 are as follows:

	Notional Amount				Fair Value Asset				Fair Value (Liability)
	December 31, 2022		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2022		June 30, 2022		December 31, 2022		June 30, 2022

Amounts in millions of dollars unless otherwise specified.

The fair value of the interest rate derivative asset/(liability) directly offsets the cumulative amount of the fair value hedging adjustment included in the carrying amount of the underlying debt obligation. The carrying amount of the underlying debt obligation, which includes the unamortized discount or premium and the fair value adjustment, was $3.5 billion and $4.7 billion as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. In addition to the foreign currency derivative contracts designated as net investment hedges, certain of our foreign currency denominated debt instruments are designated as net investment hedges. The carrying value of those debt instruments designated as net investment hedges, which includes the adjustment for the foreign currency transaction gain or loss on those instruments, was $10.2 billion and $11.2 billion as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in the notional balance of derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges is partially offset by the decrease in debt designated as a net investment hedge due to maturities. The net increase in the total amount of instruments designated as net investment hedges is primarily driven by the Company's decision to leverage favorable interest rate spreads in the foreign currency swap market.

All derivative assets are presented in Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Other noncurrent assets. All derivative liabilities are presented in Accrued and other liabilities or Other noncurrent liabilities. Changes in the fair value of net investment hedges are recognized in the Foreign currency translation component of Other comprehensive income (OCI). All of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Substantially all of the Company's financial instruments used in hedging transactions are governed by industry standard netting and collateral agreements with counterparties. If the Company's credit rating were to fall below the levels stipulated in the agreements, the counterparties could demand either collateralization or termination of the arrangements. The aggregate fair value of the instruments covered by these contractual features that are in a net liability position was $911 and $219 as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company has not been required to post collateral as a result of these contractual features.

Before tax gains on our financial instruments in hedging relationships are categorized as follows:

	Amount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in OCI on Derivatives
	Three Months Ended December 31				Six Months Ended December 31
	2022		2021		2022		2021
DERIVATIVES IN NET INVESTMENT HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS (1) (2)
Foreign exchange contracts	$	(1,013)	$	218	$	(305)	$	426

(1)For the derivatives in net investment hedging relationships, the amount of gain excluded from effectiveness testing, which was recognized in earnings, was $69 and $17 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount of gain excluded from effectiveness testing was $115 and $32 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(2)In addition to the foreign currency derivative contracts designated as net investment hedges, certain of our foreign currency denominated debt instruments are designated as net investment hedges. The amount of gain/(loss) recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) for such instruments was $(862) and $264 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount of gain/(loss) recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) for such instruments was $(164) and $567 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

	Amount of Gain/(Loss) Recognized in Earnings

DERIVATIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS HEDGING INSTRUMENTS
Foreign currency contracts	$	95	$	54	$	(51)	$	30

The loss on the derivatives in fair value hedging relationships is fully offset by the mark-to-market impact of the related exposure. These are both recognized in Interest expense. The loss on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments is substantially offset by the currency mark-to-market of the related exposure. These are both recognized in Selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A).

Amounts in millions of dollars unless otherwise specified.

Postretirement benefit plan amounts are reclassified from AOCI into Other non-operating income, net and included in the computation of net periodic postretirement costs.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

We are subject, from time to time, to certain legal proceedings and claims arising out of our business, which cover a wide range of matters, including antitrust and trade regulation, product liability, advertising, contracts, environmental, patent and trademark matters, labor and employment matters and tax. While considerable uncertainty exists, in the opinion of management and our counsel, the ultimate resolution of the various lawsuits and claims will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We are also subject to contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require us to take action to correct the effects on the environment of prior manufacturing and waste disposal practices. Based on currently available information, we do not believe the ultimate resolution of environmental remediation will materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Income Tax Uncertainties

The Company is present in approximately 70 countries and over 150 taxable jurisdictions and, at any point in time, has 40–50 jurisdictional audits underway at various stages of completion. We evaluate our tax positions and establish liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite our belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law and closing of statutes of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the tax provision as appropriate. We have tax years open ranging from 2010 and forward. We are generally not able to reliably estimate the ultimate settlement amounts until the close of an audit. Based on information currently available, we anticipate that over the next 12-month period, audit activity could be completed related to uncertain tax positions in multiple jurisdictions for which we have accrued existing liabilities of approximately $140, including interest and penalties.

Additional information on the Commitments and Contingencies of the Company can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

Purpose, Approach and Non-GAAP Measures

The purpose of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is to provide an understanding of Procter & Gamble's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows by focusing on changes in certain key measures from year to year. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes.

The MD&A is organized into the following sections:

•Overview

•Summary of Results – Six months ended December 31, 2022

•Economic Conditions and Uncertainties

•Results of Operations – Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2022

•Business Segment Discussion – Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2022

•Liquidity and Capital Resources

•Reconciliation of Measures Not Defined by U.S. GAAP

Throughout the MD&A, we refer to measures used by management to evaluate performance, including unit volume growth, net sales, net earnings, diluted net earnings per share and operating cash flow. We also refer to a number of financial measures that are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) that include organic sales growth, core net earnings per share (Core EPS), adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow productivity. The explanation at the end of the MD&A provides the definition of these non-GAAP measures, details on the use and the derivation of these measures, as well as reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Management also uses certain market share and market consumption estimates to evaluate performance relative to competition, despite some limitations on the availability and comparability of share and consumption information. References to market share and market consumption in the MD&A are based on a combination of vendor purchased traditional brick-and-mortar and online data in key markets as well as internal estimates. All market share references represent the percentage of sales of our products in dollar terms on a constant currency basis relative to all product sales in the category. The Company measures fiscal year to date market shares through the most recent period for which market share data is available, which typically reflects a lag time of one or two months as compared to the end of the reporting period. Management also uses unit volume growth to evaluate and explain drivers of changes in net sales. Organic volume growth reflects year-over-year changes in unit volume excluding the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures and certain one-time items, if applicable, and is used to explain changes in organic sales.

OVERVIEW

P&G is a global leader in the fast-moving consumer goods industry, focused on providing branded consumer packaged goods of superior quality and value to our consumers around the world. Our products are sold in approximately 180 countries and territories, primarily through mass merchandisers, e-commerce (including social commerce) channels, grocery stores, membership club stores, drug stores, department stores, distributors, wholesalers, specialty beauty stores (including airport duty-free stores), high-frequency stores, pharmacies, electronics stores and professional channels. We also sell direct to individual consumers. We have on-the-ground operations in approximately 70 countries.

Our market environment is highly competitive with global, regional and local competitors. In many of the markets and industry segments in which we sell our products, we compete against other branded products as well as retailers' private-label brands. Additionally, many of the product segments in which we compete are differentiated by price tiers (referred to as super-premium, premium, mid-tier and value-tier products). We believe we are well positioned in the industry segments and markets in which we operate, often holding a leadership or significant market share position.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

The following are highlights of results for the six months ended December 31, 2022 versus the six months ended December 31, 2021:

•Net sales were unchanged versus the prior period, at $41.4 billion. Net sales increased by low single-digits in Health Care and Fabric & Home Care and were fully offset by a decrease of high single digits in Grooming and low single digits in Beauty. Net Sales in Baby, Feminine & Family Care was unchanged. Organic sales, which exclude the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange, increased 6%. Organic sales increased high single digits in Health Care and Fabric & Home Care, increased mid-single digits in Baby, Feminine & Family Care and increased low single digits in Grooming and Beauty.

•Net earnings were $7.9 billion, a decrease of $446 million, or 5%, versus the prior year period due to a decrease in operating margin.

•Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble were $7.9 billion, a decrease of $463 million, or 6%, versus the prior year.

•Diluted net earnings per share (EPS) decreased 3% to $3.16 due primarily to the decrease in net earnings, partially offset by a reduction in the weighted average shares outstanding.

•Operating cash flow was $7.6 billion. Adjusted free cash flow, which is defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures and transitional tax payments resulting from the U.S. Tax Act beginning in 2019, was $6.3 billion. Adjusted free cash flow productivity, which is defined as adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of net earnings, was 79%.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Global Economic Conditions. Our products are sold in numerous countries across North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa, with more than half our sales generated outside the United States. As such, we are exposed to and impacted by global macroeconomic factors, U.S. and foreign government policies and foreign exchange fluctuations. Current macroeconomic factors remain very dynamic, and any causes of market size contraction, such as COVID-19 related disruptions or lockdowns, greater political unrest or instability in the Middle East, Central and Eastern Europe (including the ongoing Russia-Ukraine War), certain Latin American markets and the Korean peninsula could reduce our sales or erode our operating margin and consequently reduce our net earnings and cash flows.

Changes in Costs. Our costs are subject to fluctuations, particularly due to changes in commodity and input material prices, transportation and labor costs, broader inflationary impacts and our own productivity efforts. We have significant exposures to certain commodities and input materials, in particular certain oil-derived materials like resins and paper-based materials like pulp. Volatility in the market price of these commodities and input materials has a direct impact on our costs. Disruptions in our manufacturing, supply and distribution operations, including due to COVID-19 related lockdowns, energy shortages, port congestions, labor constraints, freight container and truck shortages and inflation have impacted our costs and could do so in the future. We strive to implement, achieve and sustain cost improvement plans, including supply chain optimization and general overhead and workforce optimization. Increased pricing in response to certain inflationary impacts or cost increases may also offset portions of the impacts, however such increases may impact product consumption. If we are unable to manage these impacts through pricing actions, cost savings projects and sourcing decisions, as well as through consistent productivity improvements, it may adversely impact our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows.

Foreign Exchange. We have both translation and transaction exposure to the fluctuation of exchange rates. Translation exposures relate to exchange rate impacts of measuring income statements of foreign subsidiaries that do not use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Transaction exposures relate to 1) the impact from input costs that are denominated in a currency other than the local reporting currency and 2) the revaluation of transaction-related working capital balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Historically, weakening of certain foreign currencies versus the U.S. dollar have resulted in significant foreign exchange impacts leading to lower net sales, net earnings and cash flows. Certain countries experiencing significant exchange rate fluctuations such as Argentina, Brazil, United Kingdom, Japan, Russia and Turkey have had, and could continue to have, a significant impact on our net sales, net earnings and cash flows. Increased pricing in response to certain fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may offset portions of the currency impacts but could also have a negative impact on the consumption of our products, which would negatively affect our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows.

Government Policies. Our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows could be affected by changes in U.S. or foreign government legislative, regulatory or enforcement policies. On August 16, 2022, the "Inflation Reduction Act" (H.R. 5376) was signed into law in the United States. We do not currently expect the Inflation Reduction Act to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Our net earnings and cash flows could be affected by any future legislative or regulatory changes in U.S. or non-U.S. tax policy, or any significant change in global tax policy adopted under the current work being led by the OECD for the G20 focused on "Addressing the Challenges of the Digitalization of the Economy". Our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows may also be impacted by changes in U.S. and foreign government policies related to environmental and climate change matters. Additionally, we attempt to carefully manage our debt, currency and other exposures in certain countries with currency exchange, import authorization and pricing controls, such as Argentina, Egypt, Nigeria and Pakistan. Our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows could be affected by changes to international trade agreements in North America and elsewhere. Changes in government policies in the above areas might cause an increase or decrease in our net sales, gross margin, operating margin, net earnings and cash flows.

Russia-Ukraine War. The war between Russia and Ukraine has negatively impacted our operations in both countries. Our Ukraine business includes two manufacturing sites. We have approximately 500 employees including both manufacturing and non-manufacturing personnel. Our operations in Ukraine accounted for less than 1% of consolidated net sales and net earnings in fiscal 2022. Additionally, net assets of our Ukraine subsidiary, along with Ukraine related assets held by other subsidiaries, account for less than 1% of net assets as of December 31, 2022.

Our Russia business includes two manufacturing sites with a net book value of approximately $250 million as of December 31, 2022. We have approximately 1,800 employees, including both manufacturing and non-manufacturing personnel. In fiscal 2022, our operations in Russia accounted for less than 2% of consolidated net sales and less than 1% of net earnings. Additionally, net assets of our Russia subsidiaries, along with Russia related assets held by other subsidiaries, account for less than 2% of net assets as of December 31, 2022. Beginning in March 2022, the Company reduced its product portfolio, discontinued new capital investments and suspended media, advertising and promotional activity in Russia.

Future impacts to the Company are difficult to predict due to the high level of uncertainty related to the war’s duration, evolution and resolution. Within Ukraine, there is a possibility of physical damage and destruction of our two manufacturing facilities. We may not be able to operate our manufacturing sites and source raw materials from our suppliers or ship finished products to our customers. Ultimately, these could result in impairments of our manufacturing plants and fixed assets or write-downs of other operating assets and working capital.

Within Russia, we may not be able to continue our reduced operations at current levels due to sanctions and counter-sanctions, monetary, currency or payment controls, legislative restrictions or policies, restrictions on access to financial institutions and supply and transportation challenges. Our suppliers, distributors and retail customers are also impacted by the war and their ability to successfully maintain their operations could also impact our operations or negatively impact the sales of our products.

More broadly, there could be additional negative impacts to our net sales, earnings and cash flows should the situation escalate beyond its current scope, including, among other potential impacts, economic recessions in certain neighboring countries or globally due to inflationary pressures and supply chain cost increases or the geographic proximity of the war relative to the rest of Europe.

Net Sales

Net sales for the quarter decreased 1% to $20.8 billion. The decrease in net sales was due to unfavorable foreign exchange of 6% and a decrease in unit volume of 6%, partially offset by higher pricing of 10% and favorable mix of 1%. Favorable mix was driven by the disproportionate growth in Personal Health Care (which has higher than Company-average selling prices) and the disproportionate decline of Europe (which has lower than Company-average selling prices). Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange, organic sales increased 5%.

Net Sales increased low single digits in Health Care and Fabric & Home Care, decreased high single digits in Grooming and decreased low single digits in Beauty and Baby, Feminine & Family Care. On a regional basis, volume decreased low teens in Europe, decreased high single digits in Greater China and decreased low single digits in North America, Asia Pacific and IMEA. Volume in Latin America was unchanged.

Operating Costs

Gross margin decreased 160 basis points to 47.5% of net sales for the quarter. The decrease in gross margin was due to:

•380 basis points of increased commodity and input material costs,

•a 130 basis-point decline from unfavorable mix due to the growth of premium products (which have lower than Company-average gross margins) and the disproportionate decline of the super-premium SK-II brand,

•90 basis points due to capacity start-up costs and other impacts,

•20 basis points of increased transportation costs,

•20 basis points of product and packaging investments,

•a 60 basis-point decline from unfavorable foreign exchange impacts and

•a 10 basis-point decline from decreased cost leverage.

These impacts were partially offset by

•a 470 basis-point increase due to higher pricing and

•80 basis points of manufacturing productivity savings.

Total SG&A spending decreased 1% to $5.1 billion due to decreased marketing spending partially offset by increased overhead costs and other operating costs. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 10 basis points to 24.5% due to an increase in overhead and other operating costs as a percentage of sales, partially offset by a decrease in marketing spending as a percentage of sales. Marketing spending as a percentage of net sales decreased 90 basis points due primarily to the positive scale impacts of the organic sales increase. Overhead costs as a percentage of net sales increased 40 basis points due to wage inflation and other cost increases, partially offset by the positive scale impacts of the organic sales increase. Other operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 50 basis points due primarily to higher foreign exchange transactional charges. Productivity-driven cost savings delivered 30 basis points of benefit to SG&A as a percentage of net sales.

Non-Operating Expenses and Income

Interest expense was $171 million for the quarter, an increase of $65 million versus the prior year period due to an increase in short-term debt and higher interest rates. Interest income was $66 million for the quarter, an increase of $56 million versus the prior year period due to higher interest rates. Other non-operating income was $155 million, a decrease of $12 million versus the prior year period.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the effective tax rate decreased 90 basis points versus the prior year period to 18.1% due to:

•a 180 basis-point decrease primarily due to the recognition of operating loss carryforwards partially offset by changes to foreign-derived intangible income and

•a 30 basis-point decrease from discrete impacts related to uncertain tax positions (a 20 basis-point favorable impact in the current period versus a 10 basis-point unfavorable impact in the prior year period).

These decreases were partially offset by a 120 basis-point increase from lower excess tax benefits of share-based compensation (an 80 basis-point benefit in the current period versus a 200 basis-point benefit in the prior year period).

Net Earnings

Operating income decreased $383 million, or 7%, to $4.8 billion for the quarter, due to the decrease in net sales and the decrease in operating margin, the components of which are described above. Net earnings decreased $283 million, or 7%, to $4.0 billion as the decrease in operating income was partially offset by a decrease in effective tax rate. Foreign exchange had a negative impact of approximately $405 million on net earnings for the quarter, including both transactional and translational impacts from converting earnings from foreign subsidiaries to U.S. dollars. Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble decreased $290 million, or 7%, to $3.9 billion for the quarter. Diluted net earnings per share decreased 4% to $1.59 versus the prior year period due to the decrease in net earnings, partially offset by a reduction in the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Six Months Ended December 31, 2022

The following discussion provides a review of results for the six months ended December 31, 2022 versus the six months ended December 31, 2021.

Net earnings	19.1%	20.3%	(120)
Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble	19.0%	20.2%	(120)

Net Sales

Net sales for the period were unchanged versus the previous period at $41.4 billion on a 4% decrease in unit volume. Higher pricing increased net sales by 9%. Positive mix increased net sales by 1% driven by the disproportionate growth in Personal Health Care (which has higher than Company-average selling prices) and the disproportionate decline of Europe (which has lower than Company-average selling prices). Unfavorable foreign exchange had a 6% negative impact on net sales. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange, organic sales increased 6%.

Net sales increased low single digits in Health Care and Fabric & Home Care and decreased high single digits in Grooming and low single digits in Beauty. Net sales was unchanged for Baby, Feminine & Family Care. On a regional basis, volume decreased double digits in Europe, mid-single digits in Greater China and low single digits in North America and IMEA. Volume increased low single digits in Latin America and Asia Pacific.

(2)Other includes the sales mix impact from acquisitions and divestitures and rounding impacts necessary to reconcile volume to net sales.

Operating Costs

Gross margin decreased 160 basis points to 47.5% of net sales for the period. The decrease in gross margin was due to:

•450 basis points of increased commodity and input material costs,

•a 80 basis-point decline from unfavorable mix due to the growth of premium products (which have lower than Company-average gross margins) and the disproportionate decline of the super-premium SK-II brand,

•40 basis points of increased transportation costs,

•30 basis points of product and packaging investments,

•40 basis points due to capacity start-up costs and other impacts,

•a 40 basis-point decline from unfavorable foreign exchange impacts and

•a 10 basis-point decline from decreased cost leverage.

These impacts were partially offset by

•a 440 basis-point increase due to higher pricing and

•90 basis points of manufacturing productivity savings.

Total SG&A spending decreased 2% to $9.9 billion due to decreased marketing spending partially offset by increased overhead costs and other operating costs. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased 40 basis points to 24% due primarily to a decrease in marketing spending as a percentage of sales, partially offset by an increase in overhead and other operating costs as a percentage of sales. Marketing spending as a percentage of net sales decreased 150 basis points due to the positive scale impacts of the organic sales increase, increased savings in promotion-related and agency costs and lower media spending. Overhead costs as a percentage of net sales increased 40 basis points due to wage inflation and other cost increases, partially offset by the positive scale impacts of the organic sales increase. Other operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 60 basis points due to a prior period gain on the sale of real estate and higher foreign exchange transactional charges. Productivity-driven cost savings delivered 80 basis points of benefit to SG&A as a percentage of net sales.

Non-Operating Expenses and Income

Interest expense was $294 million for the period, an increase of $79 million versus the prior year period due to an increase in short-term debt and higher interest rates. Interest income was $108 million for the period, an increase of $87 million versus the prior year period due to higher interest rates. Other non-operating income was $294 million, an increase of $17 million primarily due to a prior period unrealized loss on equity investments.

Income Taxes

For the six months ended December 31, 2022, the effective tax rate increased 80 basis points versus the prior year period to 19.4% due to:

•a 120 basis-point increase from lower excess tax benefits of share-based compensation (a 70 basis-point benefit in the current period versus a 190 basis-point benefit in the prior year period),

•a 30 basis-point increase from unfavorable impacts from the geographic mix of current year earnings and

•a 20 basis-point increase from discrete impacts related to uncertain tax positions (a 0 basis-point impact in the current period versus a 20 basis-point favorable impact in the prior year period).

These increases are partially offset by a 90 basis-point decrease primarily due to the recognition of operating loss carryforwards partially offset by changes to foreign-derived intangible income.

Net Earnings

Operating income decreased $467 million, or 5%, to $9.7 billion for the period due to the decrease in operating margin, the components of which are described above. Net earnings decreased $446 million or, 5%, to $7.9 billion for the fiscal year to date period due to the decrease in operating income and an increase in the effective tax rate. Foreign exchange had a negative impact of approximately $786 million on net earnings for the period, including both transactional and translational impacts from converting earnings from foreign subsidiaries to U.S. dollars. Net earnings attributable to Procter & Gamble decreased $463 million or, 6%, to $7.9 billion for the fiscal year to date period. Diluted net earnings per share decreased 3% to $3.16 versus the prior year period due to the decrease in net earnings, partially offset by a reduction in the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Beauty

Three months ended December 31, 2022 compared with three months ended December 31, 2021

Beauty net sales decreased 3% to $3.8 billion, as the negative impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange of 8%, unfavorable mix of 2% (due primarily to the decline of the SK-II brand, which has higher than segment-average selling prices) and a decrease in unit volume of 4% were partially offset by the favorable benefits of higher pricing of 9% and acquisitions of 2%. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange, organic sales increased 3%. Global market share of the Beauty segment increased 0.3 points.

•Hair Care net sales decreased mid-single digits. Negative impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange and a decrease in unit volume were partially offset by higher pricing (across all regions). The volume decrease was driven primarily by declines in Europe (due to portfolio reduction in Russia and increased pricing), Greater China (due to market contraction and COVID-related disruptions), Asia Pacific (due to increased pricing) and North America (due to market contraction). Organic sales increased mid-single digits driven by a high teens increase in Latin America and high single-digit increases in Europe and North America, partially offset by a mid-single-digit decline in Greater China. Global market share of the Hair Care category decreased a point.

•Skin and Personal Care net sales decreased low single digits. Negative impacts of unfavorable mix (due to the decline of the super premium SK-II brand) and unfavorable foreign exchange were partially offset by higher pricing (across all regions), a unit volume increase and benefit from acquisitions. Volume increase was primarily driven by growth in Greater China (due to innovation), North America (due to innovation) and Latin America, partially offset by a decline in Asia Pacific (due to increased pricing). Organic sales increased low single digits as a double digit increase in North America was partially offset by a low single-digit decrease in Greater China. Global market share of the Skin and Personal Care category increased more than a point.

Net earnings decreased 4% to $0.9 billion due to the decrease in net sales and a 20 basis-point decrease in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin decreased as a decrease in gross margin and a higher effective tax rate were offset by a reduction in SG&A

as a percentage of net sales. The gross margin reduction was driven by increased commodity and input material costs, unfavorable foreign exchange impacts and negative product mix (due to the decline of the super-premium SK-II brand), partially offset by increased pricing. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased primarily due to a decrease in marketing spending, partially offset by an increase in overhead spending. The higher effective tax rate was driven by unfavorable geographic mix.

Six months ended December 31, 2022 compared with six months ended December 31, 2021

Beauty net sales decreased 2% to $7.8 billion, as the negative impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange of 7%, unfavorable mix of 2% (due primarily to the decline of the SK-II brand, which has higher than segment-average selling prices) and a 2% decrease in unit volume were partially offset by higher pricing of 8% and benefit from acquisitions of 2%. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange, organic sales increased 3% on a 3% decrease in organic volume. Global market share of the Beauty segment increased 0.3 points.

•Hair Care net sales decreased low single digits. Negative impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange and a decrease in unit volume were partially offset by higher pricing (driven by all regions). The volume decrease was driven primarily by declines in Europe (due to portfolio reduction in Russia and increased pricing), Greater China (due to market contraction and COVID-related disruptions) and North America (due to market contraction and increased pricing). Organic sales increased mid-single digits driven by a mid-teens growth in Latin America, a high single-digit growth in Europe and a mid-single-digit growth in North America, partially offset by a mid-single-digit decline in Greater China. Global market share of the Hair Care category decreased a point.

•Skin and Personal Care net sales were unchanged. Positive impacts of higher pricing (driven primarily by Greater China and North America), a unit volume increase and benefit from acquisitions were fully offset by unfavorable mix (due to the decline of the SK-II brand, which has higher than category-average selling prices) and unfavorable foreign exchange. The volume increase was primarily driven by growth in North America, Greater China (due to innovation) and Latin America, partially offset by a decline in Asia Pacific (due to increased pricing). Organic sales increased low single digits as a low teens increase in North America was partially offset by a low single-digit decrease in Greater China. Global market share of the Skin and Personal Care category increased more than a point.

Net earnings decreased 1% to $1.9 billion due to the decrease in net sales, partially offset by a 10 basis-point increase in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin increased as a reduction in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was mostly offset by a decrease in gross margin and an increase in effective tax rate. The gross margin reduction was driven by increased commodity and input material costs and negative product mix (due to the decline of the super-premium SK-II brand), partially offset by increased pricing. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased primarily due to a decrease in marketing spending, partially offset by an increase in overhead spending. The higher effective tax rate was due to unfavorable geographic mix.

Grooming

Three months ended December 31, 2022 compared with three months ended December 31, 2021

Grooming net sales decreased 9% to $1.6 billion driven by unfavorable foreign exchange of 9%, a decrease in unit volume of 8% and unfavorable mix of 3% (due to disproportionate decline of Appliances, which has higher than segment-average selling prices), partially offset by higher pricing of 11% (primarily driven by Europe, North America and Latin America). The volume decline was driven primarily by Europe (due to market contraction and retailer inventory reductions of appliances), North America and Asia Pacific (both due to market contraction). Grooming organic sales were unchanged as a high teens increase in Latin America, a double digit increase in IMEA and a low single-digit increase in North America were fully offset by mid-single-digit decreases in Europe and Asia Pacific. Global market share of the Grooming segment increased 0.8 points.

Net earnings decreased 15% to $404 million due to the decrease in net sales and a 170 basis-point decline in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin declined due to a decrease in gross margin and an increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales. The gross margin decrease was driven by commodity and input material cost increases, unfavorable foreign exchange and negative product mix, partially offset by higher pricing and manufacturing cost savings. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased as the negative scale impacts of the net sales decrease and an increase in overhead spending were partially offset by a decrease in marketing spending.

Six months ended December 31, 2022 compared with six months ended December 31, 2021

Grooming net sales decreased 7% to $3.3 billion driven by unfavorable foreign exchange of 9%, a 4% decrease in unit volume and unfavorable mix of 4% (due to decline of Appliances, which have higher than segment-average selling prices), partially offset by higher pricing of 10% (driven primarily by Europe, North America and Latin America). The volume decrease was primarily driven by decreases in Europe (due to portfolio reduction in Russia and market contraction) and North America (due to market contraction and increased pricing). Grooming organic sales increased 2% as high teens growth in Latin America, low teens growth in IMEA and a mid-single-digit growth in Asia Pacific were partially offset by a low single-digit decline in Europe. Global market share of the Grooming segment increased 0.7 points.

Net earnings decreased 10% to $808 million due to the decrease in net sales and an 80 basis-point reduction in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin declined due to a decrease in gross margin and an increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales. The gross margin decrease was driven by commodity and input material cost increases, unfavorable foreign exchange and unfavorable product mix, partially offset by higher pricing and manufacturing cost savings. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased as the negative scale impacts of the net sales decrease and an increase in overhead spending was partially offset by higher efficiencies in marketing spending.

Health Care

Three months ended December 31, 2022 compared with three months ended December 31, 2021

Health Care net sales increased 2% to $3.1 billion driven by higher pricing of 5% and favorable mix of 4% (due to volume growth in North America and the Personal Health Care category, both of which have higher than segment-average selling prices), partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of 6% and a decrease in unit volume of 1%. Organic sales increased 8%. Global market share of the Health Care segment decreased 0.1 points.

•Oral Care net sales decreased mid-single digits. Negative impacts of an unfavorable foreign exchange and a volume decline were partially offset by increased pricing (driven by North America and Europe) and favorable product mix. Volume decline was primarily driven by Europe (due to portfolio reduction in Russia and increased pricing) and Greater China (due to COVID-related disruptions), partially offset by growth in Asia Pacific. Organic sales increased low single digits driven by mid-teen increases in Latin America and Asia Pacific and a low single-digit increase in North America, partially offset by a high single-digit decrease in Greater China. Global market share of the Oral Care category was unchanged.

•Personal Health Care net sales increased low teens. Positive impacts of a favorable mix (due to the disproportionate volume growth of North America and respiratory products, both of which have higher than category-average selling prices), higher pricing (driven by North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific) and a volume increase were partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange. Volume increase was primarily driven by growth in North America due to a stronger respiratory season. Organic sales increased high-teens driven by a more than 20% growth in North America, a mid-teens growth in Latin America and a double-digit growth in Europe. Global market share of the Personal Health Care category increased less than half a point.

Net earnings decreased 2% to $686 million as the increase in net sales was more than fully offset by a 110 basis-point decrease in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin decreased due to a decrease in gross margin, partially offset by a decrease in SG&A as a percentage of net sales. The decrease in gross margin was driven by increased commodity and input material costs and unfavorable mix (due to the growth of premium priced products with lower than segment-average gross margins), partially offset by increased pricing. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased due to the positive scale impacts of the net sales increase and higher efficiencies in marketing spending.

Six months ended December 31, 2022 compared with six months ended December 31, 2021

Health Care net sales increased 3% to $5.8 billion driven by higher pricing of 5% and favorable mix of 4% (due to volume growth in North America and the Personal Health Care category, both of which have higher than segment-average selling prices), partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange of 5% and a 1% decrease in unit volume. Organic sales increased 8%. Global market share of the Health Care segment decreased 0.4 points.

•Oral Care net sales decreased mid-single digits. Negative impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange and a unit volume decline were partially offset by increased pricing (driven primarily by North America and Europe) and favorable product mix. Volume decline was primarily driven by Europe (due to portfolio reduction in Russia and increased pricing), North America (due to market contraction and increased pricing) and Greater China (due to COVID-related disruptions). Organic sales increased low single digits driven by a high teens increase in Latin America, a double digit increase in Asia Pacific and a low single-digit increase in North America, partially offset by a mid-single-digit decrease in Greater China. Global market share of the Oral Care category was unchanged.

•Personal Health Care net sales increased low teens. Positive impacts of higher pricing (driven primarily by North America and Latin America), a unit volume increase and favorable mix (due to the disproportionate growth of North America and respiratory products, both of which have higher than category-average selling prices) were partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange. Volume increase was primarily driven by growth in North America (due primarily to a stronger respiratory season) and Latin America, partially offset by a decline in IMEA (versus a base period impacted by pandemic-related consumption increases in certain markets). Organic sales increased high-teens driven by growth in all regions led by a more than 20% increase in North America, a mid-teens increase in Europe and a low teens increase in Latin America. Global market share of the Personal Health Care category was unchanged.

Net earnings increased 6% to $1.3 billion due to the increase in net sales and a 60 basis-point increase in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin increased due primarily to a decrease in SG&A as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by a decrease in gross margin. The decrease in gross margin was driven by increased commodity and input material costs and unfavorable

mix (due to the growth of premium priced products with lower than segment-average gross margins), partially offset by increased pricing. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased due to higher efficiencies in marketing spending and the positive scale impacts of the net sales increase.

Fabric & Home Care

Three months ended December 31, 2022 compared with three months ended December 31, 2021

Global market share of the Home Care category increased more than a point.

Net earnings increased 3% to $1.2 billion due to the increase in net sales and a 40 basis-point improvement in net earnings margin. Net earnings margin increased due to an increase in gross margin and a reduction in SG&A as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate. The gross margin increase was driven by higher pricing partially offset by an increase in commodity and input material costs and unfavorable foreign exchange. SG&A as a percentage of net sales decreased due to increased efficiencies in marketing spending and a reduction in overhead spending. The higher effective tax rate was driven by a higher proportion of net sales in North America, which has higher than Company-average tax rates.

Six months ended December 31, 2022 compared with six months ended December 31, 2021

Corporate

Corporate includes certain operating and non-operating activities not allocated to specific business segments. These include but are not limited to incidental businesses managed at the corporate level, gains and losses related to certain divested brands or businesses, impacts from various financing and investing activities, impacts related to employee benefits, asset impairments and restructuring activities including manufacturing and workforce optimization. Corporate also includes reconciling items to adjust the accounting policies used within the reportable segments to U.S. GAAP. The most notable ongoing reconciling item is income taxes, which adjusts the blended statutory rates that are reflected in the reportable segments to the overall Company effective tax rate.

Corporate net sales improved by $23 million to $175 million for the quarter and improved by $138 million to $428 million for the fiscal year to date, due to an increase in sales of incidental businesses managed at the corporate level. Corporate net earnings decreased $128 million to a loss of $61 million for the quarter as net sales growth of incidental businesses and a lower effective tax rate were more than offset by increased commodity costs tied to incidental businesses and higher foreign exchange transactional charges. For the fiscal year to date period, Corporate net earnings declined by $346 million to a loss of $107 million, as the net sales growth of incidental businesses and a lower effective tax rate were more than offset by increased commodity costs tied to the incidental businesses, prior period gain on the sale of real estate and higher foreign exchange transactional charges.

LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities

We generated $7.6 billion of cash from operating activities fiscal year to date, a decrease of $2.1 billion versus the prior year period. Net earnings, adjusted for non-cash items (depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, deferred income taxes and gain on sale of assets), generated $9.1 billion of operating cash flow. Working capital and other impacts used $1.4 billion of cash in the period. Accounts receivable increased, using $654 million of cash, driven by sales growth across regions. Days sales outstanding increased by two days. Total inventories increased, consuming $655 million of cash driven by increased safety stock levels to strengthen supply chain sufficiency and increased commodity costs. Days on hand increased by four days. Accounts payable, accrued and other net operating assets and liabilities decreased, using $358 million of cash, primarily driven by post-retirement contributions and excess payments over accruals for salary and incentive compensation. This was partially offset by the impact of extended payment terms with suppliers. Days payable outstanding decreased by four days.

Investing Activities

Investing activities used $1.3 billion of cash fiscal year to date primarily driven by capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Financing activities used $6.5 billion of net cash fiscal year to date. We used $6.0 billion for treasury stock purchases and $4.5 billion for dividends. We generated $3.6 billion from net debt increases and $437 million from the exercise of stock options and other impacts.

As of December 31, 2022, our current liabilities exceeded current assets by $16.9 billion. We have short- and long-term debt to meet our financing needs. We anticipate being able to support our short-term liquidity and operating needs largely through cash generated from operations. We have strong short- and long-term debt ratings that have enabled and should continue to enable us to refinance our debt as it becomes due at favorable rates in commercial paper and bond markets. In addition, we have agreements with a diverse group of financial institutions that, if needed, should provide sufficient credit funding to meet short-term financing requirements.

RECONCILIATION OF MEASURES NOT DEFINED BY U.S. GAAP

In accordance with the SEC's Regulation S-K Item 10(e), the following provides definitions of the non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful perspective on underlying business trends and provide a supplemental measure of period-to-period financial results. Disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors and management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance. Management uses these non-GAAP measures in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for business strategy purposes. Certain of these measures are also used to evaluate senior management and are a factor in determining their at-risk compensation. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures do not represent a comprehensive basis of accounting. Therefore, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Organic sales growth: Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We believe this measure provides investors with a

supplemental understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. This measure is used in assessing achievement of management goals for at-risk compensation.

Adjusted free cash flow: Adjusted free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending and adjusted for transitional tax payments resulting from the U.S. Tax Act beginning in 2019. Adjusted free cash flow represents the cash that the Company is able to generate after taking into account planned maintenance and asset expansion. Management views adjusted free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor used in determining the amount of cash available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and other discretionary investments.

Adjusted free cash flow productivity: Adjusted free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of adjusted free cash flow to net earnings. Management views adjusted free cash flow productivity as a useful measure to help investors understand P&G’s ability to generate cash. Adjusted free cash flow productivity is used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for budget planning purposes. This measure is also used in assessing the achievement of management goals for at-risk compensation.

Core EPS: Core earnings per share, or Core EPS, is a measure of the Company's diluted net earnings per share excluding items that are not judged to be part of the Company's sustainable results or trends. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no adjustments to or reconciling items for diluted net earnings per share. Management views this non-GAAP measure as a useful supplemental measure of Company performance over time. This measure is also used when evaluating senior management in determining their at-risk compensation.
