Jarden Reports Record Second Quarter Net Sales and non-GAAP Net Income

RYE, N.Y., July 27, 2006 — Jarden Corporation (NYSE: JAH) today reported its financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2006.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, net sales increased 28% to $962 million compared to $754 million for the same period in the previous year. Net income was $13.3 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $5.7 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2005. On a non-GAAP basis, net income as adjusted was $39.3 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $36.5 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2005. Please see the schedule accompanying this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income and diluted earnings per share. Current year amounts include the results of operations from the American Household and Holmes Group businesses, which were acquired in January 2005 and July 2005, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, net sales increased 37% to $1,754 million compared to $1,276 million for the same period in the prior year. Net income was $19 million, or $0.29 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $14.4 million or $(0.33) per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005. On a non-GAAP basis, net income as adjusted was $55.1 million, or $0.84 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $52.3 million, or $0.83 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Martin E. Franklin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our solid first quarter momentum continued into the second quarter as demonstrated by the record financial results reported today. Our strategy of building a market leading, diversified consumer products company based on our people, products and brands continues to gain real traction. Our strong organic topline growth demonstrates the demand for our products by consumers. We attribute this growth to solid market share gains in a number of our product lines and our ability to secure revenue growth by way of pass through pricing in other product lines. Despite questions about the economy and consumers, we believe that the more time consumers spend at home the better it is for Jarden. Additionally, with integration challenges largely behind us, we are meeting our objective of proving that being a market leader with brands and scale can produce superior results.”

Mr. Franklin continued, “Our Outdoor Solutions segment exhibited strong sales in the first half and is well positioned to present its most meaningful new product portfolio in the company’s recent history in 2007. The healthy momentum in all of our segments, despite continued pressure on supply chain costs, continued through the second quarter. This momentum positions us well for the back half of the year and on track to achieve our long-term financial goals.”

The Company will be holding a conference call at 9:45 a.m. (EDT) today, July 27, 2006, to further discuss its results and respond to questions. The call will be accessible via a webcast through the Company’s website at www.jarden.com and will be archived online until August 10, 2006.

Notes to Earnings Release

Note 1: Adjustments relate to items that are excluded from the “as reported” results to arrive at the “as adjusted” results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. For the three months ended June 30, 2006 adjustments to net income consist of $5.6 million of reorganization and acquisition-related integration costs, $4.3 million of non-cash compensation costs primarily related to the expensing of restricted shares and stock options of Company common stock issued to employees and $0.9 million of certain duplicative costs associated with the ongoing integration activities. The tax provision adjustment of $15.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, reflects the elimination of a one time tax charge recorded in association with the legal reorganization of the domestic Consumer Solutions businesses and the normalization of the as adjusted results to the Company’s 36.5% effective rate.

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, adjustments to net income consist of $5.9 million of reorganization and acquisition-related integration costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, adjustments to net income consist of $15 million related to reorganization and acquisition-related integration costs and $9.7 million of non-cash compensation costs primarily related to the expensing of restricted shares and stock options of Company common stock issued to employees, $1.8 million of certain duplicative administrative costs associated with the ongoing integration activities, and $0.3 million of inventory write-offs related to integration activities. Also, included in the adjustments to net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is the tax provision adjustment of $9.3 million which reflects the elimination of a one time tax cost associated with the legal reorganization of the Consumer Solutions business and the normalization of the as adjusted results to the Company’s 36.5% effective tax rate.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, adjustments to net income consist of purchase accounting adjustments for $16.4 million of manufacturer’s profit in inventory charged to cost of sales during the first quarter, $8.8 million of reorganization and acquisition-related integration costs, $6.1 million of loss on early extinguishment of debt and $47.2 million related to the beneficial conversion of Series B and C preferred stock. Adjustments to the weighted average shares outstanding consist of Series B and Series C preferred stock common stock equivalents or an if-converted basis as well as restricted shares for executive officers to be issued upon shareholder approval of an amendment to the stock compensation plan.

Note 2: Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported net income.

Note 3: This earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a Company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets, or statements of cash flows of the Company; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are provided because management of the Company uses these financial measures in maintaining and evaluating the Company’s ongoing financial results and trends. Management uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business performance, and evaluates overall management with respect to such indicators. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
