NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in millions, unaudited)

This report is a combined report of Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. (“SBH”) and SB/RH Holdings, LLC (“SB/RH”) (collectively, the “Company”). The notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements that follow include both consolidated SBH and SB/RH Notes, unless otherwise indicated below.

NOTE 1– BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Fiscal Period-End

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries in accordance with accounting principles for interim financial information generally accepted in the United States and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.

SBH’s and SB/RH’s fiscal year ends September 30 and the Company reports its results using fiscal quarters whereby each three month quarterly reporting period is approximately thirteen weeks in length and ends on a Sunday. The exceptions are the first quarter, which begins on October 1, and the fourth quarter, which ends on September 30. As a result, the fiscal period end date for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods included within this Quarterly Report for the Company are ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021.

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The new standard also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years and was adopted by the Company on October 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In response to the concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates (“IBORs”) and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), regulators in several jurisdictions around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The ASU provides companies with optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, which adds implementation guidance to clarify certain optional expedients in Topic 848. The ASU can be adopted no later than December 31, 2022 with early adoption permitted. ~~The Company is evaluating~~We do not anticipate the ~~effect of adopting this new accounting guidance.~~

~~Transaction related charges~~

~~Transaction related charges consist of costs from (1)~~adoption will have a qualifying strategic transaction or business development opportunity, including an acquisition or divestiture, whether or not consummated, associated with the purchase or sale of net assets or equity interest of a business such as a business combination, equity investment, joint venture or purchase or sale of non-controlling interest; (2) subsequent integration related project costs directly associated with an acquisition including realized costs for the integration of acquired operations into the Company’s shared service platforms, termination of redundant or duplicative positions and locations, operations and/or products, employee transition costs, professional fees, and other post business combination expenses; and (3) divestiture support and separation costs consisting of incremental costs incurred to facilitate separation of a divested business or operation, including the development of shared service operations impacted by a separation, including impacts to shared platforms and personnel impacted by the transaction. Qualifying cost types not specified above include, but are not limited to, banking, advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, or other professional fees; and including impairment lossmaterial impact on ~~existing assets considered duplicative or redundant and directly attributable to the respective transactions. See~~ ~~Note 2 – Divestitures~~ ~~and~~ ~~Note 3 – Acquisitions~~ ~~for further discussion.

Beginning in September 2021, the Company ceased the recognition of depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets associated with the HHI disposal group classified as held for sale. Interest expense consists of interest from debt directly attributable to HHI operations that primarily consist of interest from finance leases. No impairment loss was recognized on the assets held for sale as the purchase price of the business less estimated cost to sell is more than its carrying value.

("Energizer") during the year ended September 30, 2019. The Company and Energizer agreed to indemnify each other for losses arising from certain breaches of the acquisition agreement and for certain other matters. The Company has agreed to indemnify for certain liabilities relating to the assets retained, and Energizer agreed to indemnify the Company for certain liabilities assumed, in each case as described in the acquisition agreements. As of April 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $26.5 million and $36.5 million, respectively, related to indemnification payables in accordance with the acquisition agreements, including $9.8 million and $17.3 million, respectively, within Other Current Liabilities, primarily attributable to current income tax indemnifications, and $16.7 million and $19.2 million, respectively, within Other Long-Term Liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, primarily attributable to income tax indemnifications associated with previously recognized uncertain tax benefits. Subsequently, effective January 2, 2020, Energizer closed its divestitures of the European based Varta® consumer battery business in the EMEA region to Varta AG and transferred all respective rights and indemnifications attributable to the Varta® consumer battery business provided by the GBL sale to Varta AG. As of July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $25.5 million and $36.5 million, respectively, related to indemnification payables in accordance with the acquisition agreements, including $9.4 million and $17.3 million within Other Current Liabilities, respectively, and $16.1 million and $19.2 million, within Other Long-Term Liabilities, respectively, on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, primarily attributable to income tax indemnifications associated with previously recognized uncertain tax benefits.

The Company entered into a series of ~~transaction service agreements ("TSA")~~TSAs and reverse TSAs with Energizer to support various shared back office administrative functions including finance, sales and marketing, information technology, human resources, real estate and supply chain, customer service and procurement. TSAs associated with the Varta® consumer battery business were transferred to Varta AG as part of the subsequent divestiture by Energizer. Charges associated with TSAs ~~are~~were recognized as bundled service costs under a fixed fee structure by the respective service or function and geographic location, including one-time pass-through charges for warehousing, freight, amongst others, with variable expiration dates up to 24 months. Charges associated with TSAs and reverse TSAs are recognized as a reduction to or increase in the respective ~~operating~~ costs, as a component of operating expense or cost of goods sold, depending upon the functions supported by or provided to the Company. Additionally, due to the commingled nature of the shared administrative functions, cash would be received ~~and/~~or paid on behalf of the respective counterparty's operations, resulting in cash flow being commingled with operating cash flow of the Company which would settle on a net basis with TSA charges. During the ~~three~~nine month period ended ~~April 4, 2021, the Company recognized net gain of $0.1 million, consisting of TSA charges of $0.1 million. During the six month period ended April~~July 4, 2021, the Company recognized net loss of $1.7 million, consisting of TSA charges of $0.9 million and reverse TSA costs of $2.6 million. The Company exited all outstanding TSAs and reverse TSAs in January 2021.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

Tristar Business Acquisition

On February 18, 2022, the Company acquired all of the membership interests in HPC Brands, LLC, which consist of the home appliances and cookware business of Tristar Products, Inc. (the "Tristar Business") for a purchase price of $325.0 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments and transaction costs, plus a potential earn-out payment of up to $100.0 million if certain gross profit targets are achieved in calendar year 2022, and another earn-out payment of $25.0 million if certain other gross profit targets are achieved in calendar year 2023. The acquisition of the Tristar Business was funded by a combination of cash on hand and incremental borrowings incurred as a new tranche under the Company's existing credit agreement. See Note 10 - Debt for further detail on the amendment to the credit agreement.

The Tristar Business includes a portfolio of home appliances and cookware products sold under the PowerXL®, Emeril Legasse®, and Copper Chef® brands. The PowerXL® and Copper Chef® brands were acquired outright by the Company while the Emeril Legasse® brand remains subject to a trademark license agreement with the license holder (the "Emeril License"). Pursuant to the Emeril License, the Company will continue to license the Emeril ~~Lagasse®~~Legasse® brands in the US, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom for certain designated product categories of household appliances within the ~~HPC~~Home and Personal Care ("HPC") segment, including small kitchen food preparation products, indoor and outdoor grills and grill accessories, and cookbooks. The Emeril License is set to expire effective December 31, 2022 with options of up to three one-year renewal periods following the initial expiration. Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to pay the license holder a percentage of sales, with minimum annual royalty payments of $1.5 million, increasing to $1.8 million in subsequent renewal periods.

The net assets and operating results of the Tristar Business, since the acquisition date of February 18, 2022, are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and reported within the HPC reporting segment for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022.

The Company has recorded ana preliminary allocation of the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the February 18, 2022 acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets of ~~$103.7~~$104.7 million was recorded as goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill includes value associated with profits earned from market and expansion capabilities including the success of new product launches through direct response television and direct to consumer channels, new brand development and products brought to market by the Company, synergies from integration and streamlining operational activities, and the going concern of the business and the value of the assembled workforce. The preliminary fair values recorded were determined based upon a valuation with estimates and assumptions used in such valuation that are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas of acquisition ~~account~~accounting that are not finalized relate to amounts for ~~purchase price, intangible assets,~~ deferred taxes, goodwill, and components of working capital.

The calculation of preliminary purchase price is as follows:


(in millions)	Amount
Cash paid at closing	$	314.6
~~Estimated~~Cash received for purchase price settlement	~~(39.1)~~(42.2)
Contingent consideration	30.0

~~NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS (continued)~~

~~The~~the transaction date, the Company recorded a contingent consideration liability of $30.0 million ~~as of the date of the acquisition~~ to reflect the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration for the earn-out payments. The fair value was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the earn-out based on the likelihood of reaching specific targets. The fair value measurement is determined based on significant unobservable inputs and thus represents a Level 3 fair value measurement. The key assumptions considered include the estimated amount and timing of projected gross profits, volatility, estimated discount rates, and risk-free interest rate. In each reporting period after the acquisition, the Company will reassess the value of the contingent consideration liability and may recognize an increase or decrease in the fair value in its consolidated statements of earnings after the measurement period. Changes may result from changes in actual results and projected forecasts. The inputs and assumptions may not be observable in the market, but reflect the assumptions the Company believes would be made by a market participant. ~~There were no changes~~Subsequently, the Company and the acquired Tristar Business have experienced a marginal downturn in operating results during the three month period ended July 3, 2022 that was attributable to significant shifts in retail customer purchasing due to high levels of retail inventory and lower replenishment orders, especially with key significant mass retail customers, along with continued inflationary cost pressures and incremental margin risk from promotional spending, have adjusted the forecasted results of the Tristar Business and further impacted the value of the contingent consideration. As a result, the fair value of the contingent consideration liability ~~during~~as of July 3, 2022 was estimated to be $5.0 million and the Company recognized a decrease of $25.0 million for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, ~~2022 following the acquisition date of February 18,~~ 2022. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the current portion of the contingent consideration of $3.5 million was classified as Other Current Liabilities ~~for the calendar year 2022 payment of $25.0 million~~ and the long-term portion of $1.5 million was classified as Other Long-Term Liabilities ~~for the calendar year 2023 payment of $5.0 million~~ on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

The Company performed a valuation of the acquired inventories, tradenames, and customer relationships. The fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market, and therefore, represent Level 3 measurements. The following is a summary of significant inputs to the valuation:

Inventory – Acquired inventory consists of branded finished goods that were valued based on the comparative sales method, which estimates the expected sales price of the finished goods inventory, reduced for all costs expected to be incurred in its completion or disposition and a profit on those costs.

Tradename – The Company valued the PowerXL® tradename using an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the tradenames were not owned. Royalty rate of 3% for valuation of PowerXL® was selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions, related trademarks and tradenames, other similar trademark licensing and transaction agreements and the relative profitability and perceived contribution of the tradenames. The discount rate applied to the projected cash flow was 16% based on the implied transaction internal rate of return for the overall business, excluding cost synergies. The resulting discounted cash flows were then tax-effected at the applicable statutory rate.

Customer relationships – The Company values customer relationships using the multi-period excess earnings method under a market participant distributor method of the income approach. In determining the fair value of the customer relationships, the multi-period excess earnings approach values the intangible asset at the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the customer relationship after deducting contributory asset charges. Only expected sales from current retail customers were used, which are estimated using average annual expected growth rate of 2.7%. The Company assumed a customer attrition rate of 5%, which is supported by historical attrition rates. The discount rate applied to the projected cash flow was 12% based upon a weighted average cost of capital for the overall business and income taxes were estimated at the applicable statutory rate.

During the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022, the Company has recognized $65.8 million and $101.6 million of net sales from the acquired Tristar Business since the transaction date. The following pro forma financial information summarizes the combined results of operations for the Company and the acquired Tristar Business as though the companies were combined as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2021.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS (continued)

Through the acquisition of the Tristar Business, the Company acquired substantially all of the operations, employees and net assets of Tristar Products, Inc. and entered into a series of TSAs for various shared back office administrative functions including finance, sales and marketing, information technology, human resources, real estate and supply chain, customer service and procurement, to support the excluded product groups that did not convey with the transaction. Charges associated with TSAs are recognized as bundled service charges under a fixed fee structure by the respective service or function along with one-time pass-through charges, including warehousing, and freight, among others, from the acquired Tristar Business that settle on a net basis between the two parties. Charges for TSA services are recognized as a reduction to the respective operating costs as a component of operating expense or cost of goods sold depending upon the functions supported by the acquired Tristar Business. During the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company recognized TSA income of ~~$0.5 million.~~$0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company assumed the cash accounts supporting both the acquired Tristar Business and the excluded product groups, and due to the commingled nature of operations, cash would be received ~~and/~~or paid on behalf of the excluded product groups' operations, resulting in cash flow being commingled with operating cash flow of the Company which would settle on a net basis with TSA charges. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, there was an outstanding ~~payable to~~receivable from Tristar Products, Inc. of ~~$0.7~~$1.3 million included within Other ~~Current Liabilities~~Receivables on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

NOTE 4 – RESTRUCTURING ~~AND RELATED~~ CHARGES

~~Global Productivity Improvement Program –~~The Company regularly enters into various restructuring initiatives, optimization projects, strategic transactions, and other business development activities that may include the recognition of exit or disposal costs. Exit or disposal costs include, but are not limited to, the costs of one-time termination benefits, such as a severance or retention bonuses, one-time contract termination costs (excluding leases), and other costs associated with exit or disposal activity such as the sale or termination of a line of business, closure of an operating facility or business location in a country or region, relocation of business activities from one location to another, change in management structure, and a fundamental reorganization that affects the nature and focus of operations.

During the three month period ended July 3, 2022, the Company entered into a new initiative in response to changes observed within consumer products and retail markets, continued inflationary cost pressures and headwinds, and to facilitate changes in the management structure for enabling functions of the consolidated group, resulting in the realization of headcount reduction. Total cumulative costs associated with the new restructuring initiative were $8.1 million. Substantially all costs associated with the initiative have been recognized with no further significant costs expected to be incurred.

During the year ended September 30, 2021, the GPC segment entered into an initiative to update its supply chain and distribution operations within the U.S. to address capacity needs, and optimize and improve fill rates attributable to recent growth in the business and consumer demand, and improve overall operational effectiveness and throughput. The initiative includes the transition of its third party logistics (3PL) service provider at its existing distribution center, incorporating new facilities into the distribution footprint by expanding warehouse capacity and securing additional space to support long-term distribution and fulfillment, plus updating engagement and processes with suppliers and its transportation and logistics handlers. Incremental costs include one-time transition, implementation and start-up cost with the new 3PL service provider, including the integration of provider systems and technology, incentive-based compensation to maintain performance during transition, duplicative and redundant costs, and incremental costs for various disruptions in the operations during the transition period including supplemental transportation and storage costs, and incremental detention and demurrage costs. Costs attributable to the initiative are expected to be incurred through the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022. Total cumulative costs associated with the initiative were $35.5 million with expected costs of approximately $4 million expected to be incurred.

During the year ended September 30, 2019, the Company initiated the Global Productivity Improvement Program, which is a company-wide, multi-year program, ~~which consists~~consisting of various ~~restructuring related~~ initiatives to redirect resources and spending to drive growth, identify cost savings and pricing opportunities through standardization and optimization, develop organizational and operating optimization, and reduce overall operational complexity across the Company. ~~Since~~With the ~~announcement of the project and completion of the Company’s~~Company's divestitures of GBL and GAC during the year ended September 30, 2019, the project focus includes the ~~transitioning~~transition of the ~~Company’s~~Company's continuing operations in a post-divestiture environment and ~~separation from Energizer~~exiting of TSAs, ~~and reverse TSAs. Refer to~~ ~~Note 2 – Divestitures~~ ~~for further discussion of continuing involvement with Energizer.~~which were fully exited in January 2022. The ~~initiative includes~~initiatives include review of global processes and organization design and ~~structures;~~structures, headcount reductions and ~~transfers;~~transfers, and rightsizing the Company’s shared operations and commercial business strategy, and exit of certain internal production to third-party suppliers, among others, resulting in ~~certain regions~~the recognition of severance benefits and ~~local jurisdictions; among others. Total~~other exit and disposal costs to facilitate such activity. As of July 3, 2022, total cumulative exit and disposal costs ~~incurred~~ associated with the project were ~~$156.3~~$157.5 million ~~as of April 3, 2022, with approximately $0.9 million forecasted in the foreseeable future. The project costs are anticipated to be incurred through the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022.~~

~~GPC Distribution Center Transitions –~~ During the year ended September 30, 2021, the GPC segment entered into an initiative to update its supply chain and distribution operations within the US to optimize and improve fill rates, address capacity needs attributable to recent and projected growth in the business, improve product availability to meet increasing customer demand and improve overall operational effectiveness and throughput. The initiative includes the transition of its third party logistics (3PL) service provider at its existing Edwardsville, IL distribution center, incorporating new facilities into the distribution footprint by expanding warehouse capacity and securing additional space, and updating engagement and processes with suppliers and its transportation and logistics handlers. Costs incurred to facilitate the transition of service providers include one-time implementation and start-up costs, including the integration of the provider systems and technology, incremental compensation and incentive-based compensation to maintain performance during the transition period, duplicative and redundant costs, and incremental costs for various disruptions in the operations during the transition period, including supplemental transportation and storage costs. Due to the continued supply chain constraints impacting product availability experienced by the GPC segment, the Company has extended the initiative and expanded the project to include additional long-term capacity to be available later in the 2022 fiscal year. Total cumulative costs incurred associated with the project ~~were $27.4 million as of April 3, 2022, with approximately $5.3 million forecasted in the foreseeable future. The project~~being substantially complete and no significant anticipated costs ~~are anticipated~~expected to be ~~incurred through the remainder of the year ending September 30, 2022.~~incurred.

~~Other Restructuring Activities~~ – The Company may enter into small, less significant initiatives ~~and restructuring related activities primarily~~ to reduce costs and improve margins throughout the organization. Individually these activities are not substantial and occur over a shorter time period (generally less than 12 months).

Borrowings from the ~~initial~~original revolver capacity of $600 million under the Revolver Facility are subject to either adjusted London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75% per annum, or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75% per annum; and borrowings under the incremental revolver capacity of $500 million, per the third amendment to the Credit Agreement discussed below, are subject to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75% per annum or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75%. The LIBOR borrowings are subject to a 0.75% LIBOR floor and the SOFR borrowings are subject to a 0.50% SOFR floor. Our Revolver Facility allows for the LIBOR rate to be phased out and replaced with the SOFR and therefore we do not anticipate a material impact by the expected upcoming LIBOR transition. As a result of borrowings and payments under the Revolver Facility, the Company had borrowing availability of ~~$308.4~~$307.3 million at ~~April~~July 3, 2022, net of outstanding letters of credit of ~~$16.6~~$17.7 million.

The Term Loan Facility is subject to a rate per annum equal to either (1) the LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject to a 0.50% floor, adjusted for statutory reserves, plus a margin of 2.00% per annum or (2) the Alternate Base Rate (As defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a margin of 1.00% per annum.

Credit Agreement

On December 10, 2021, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated as of June 30, 2020. The second amendment includes certain modified terms from the existing Credit Agreement to provide for an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit in Euro and Pounds Sterling. Pursuant to the second amendment, Sterling Overnight Index

Average ("SONIA") replaced LIBO Rate as a reference rate for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in Pounds Sterling and Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR") replaced LIBO Rate as a reference rate for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in Euro. The Company currently has no borrowing under the Revolver Facility denominated in Euro or Pounds Sterling.

On February 3, 2022, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement. The third amendment provides for incremental capacity on the Revolver Facility of $500 million that was used to support the acquisition of the Tristar Business and the continuing operations and working capital requirements of the Company. See Note 3 - Acquisitions for further discussion on the Tristar Business acquisition. Borrowings under the incremental capacity are subject to the same terms and conditions of the existing Revolver Facility, with a maturity date of June 30, 2025, other than a difference in borrowing rate which is subject to SOFR plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%, or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75% per annum, with an increase by 25 basis points 270 days after the effective date of the third amendment and an additional 25 basis points on each 90 day anniversary of such date. The SOFR is subject to a 0.50% floor. The Company incurred ~~$7.1~~$7.6 million in connection with the third amendment, which have been capitalized as debt issuance costs and will be amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Agreement.

NOTE 11 – DERIVATIVES

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company principally in the management of its foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of the risk from forecasted foreign currency denominated third party and intercompany sales or payments. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Pound Sterling, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, or Japanese Yen. These foreign exchange contracts are cash flow hedges of fluctuating foreign exchange related to inventory purchases or the sale of product. Until the purchase or sale is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. At the time the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is reclassified as an adjustment to purchase price variance in Cost of Goods Sold or Net Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. At ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company had a series of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding through ~~September~~December 29, 2023. The derivative net gain estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings over the next 12 months is ~~$5.2~~$6.5 million, net of tax. At ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges with a notional value of ~~$276.7~~$106.7 million and $279.9 million, respectively.

The following table summarizes the impact of designated cash flow hedges and the pre-tax gain (loss) recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021, respectively:

During the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022, the Company settled certain cash flow hedges prior to their stated maturity that were in place to hedge forecasted U.S. Dollar denominated inventory purchases in exchange for Euros, but were subsequently discontinued due to changes in the Company's forecasted purchasing strategy of finished goods inventory within the EMEA region. As a result, there was a realized gain of $8.2 million during the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 and recognized as a component of Cost of Goods Sold, included in the activity summarized above.

Derivative Contracts Not Designated as Hedges for Accounting Purposes

The Company periodically enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to economically hedge a portion of the risk from third party and intercompany payments resulting from existing obligations. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars Mexican Pesos, Japanese Yen, Colombian Peso, Polish Zlotys, ~~Mexican Pesos,~~Hungarian Forint, or ~~Japanese Yen,~~Turkish Lira, among others. These foreign exchange contracts are fair value hedges of a related liability or asset recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The gain or ~~gain~~loss on the derivative hedge contracts is recorded in earnings as an offset to the change in value of the related liability or asset at each period end. At ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company had a series of forward exchange contracts outstanding through ~~July 20,~~December 23, 2022. At ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company had ~~$109.8~~$332.7 million and $198.4 million, respectively, of notional value of such foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding.

The following summarizes the impact of derivative instruments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021, pre-tax:

The Company is exposed to the risk of default by the counterparties with which it transacts and generally does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk on an individual basis by periodically assessing each counterparty’s credit rating exposure. The maximum loss due to credit risk equals the fair value of the gross asset derivatives that are concentrated with certain domestic and foreign financial institution counterparties. The Company considers these exposures when measuring its credit reserve on its derivative assets, which were not significant as of ~~April~~July 3, 2022.

The Company’s standard contracts do not contain credit risk related contingent features whereby the Company would be required to post additional cash collateral because of a credit event. However, the Company is typically required to post collateral in the normal course of business to offset its liability positions. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, and September 30, 2021, there was no cash collateral outstanding and no posted standby letters of credit related to such liability positions.

Net Investment Hedge

~~SBI~~Spectrum Brands, Inc. has €425.0 million aggregate principle amount of 4.00% Notes designated as a non-derivative economic hedge, or net investment hedge, of the translation of the Company’s net investments in Euro denominated subsidiaries at the time of issuance. The hedge effectiveness is measured on the beginning balance of the net investment and re-designated every three months. Any gains and losses attributable to the translation of the Euro denominated debt designated as net investment hedge are recognized as a component of foreign currency translation within AOCI, and gains and losses attributable to the translation of the undesignated portion are recognized as foreign currency translation gains or losses within Other Non-Operating Expense (Income). As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the full principal amount was designated as a net investment hedge and considered fully effective. The following summarizes the gain (loss) from the net investment hedge recognized in Other Comprehensive Income for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021, pre-tax:


		Three Month Periods Ended				Six Month Periods Ended					Three Month Periods Ended				Nine Month Periods Ended

NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company has not changed the valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the year. The carrying value and estimated fair value of financial ~~and derivative~~ instruments as of ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021 according to the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

The fair value measurements of the Company’s debt represent non-active market exchanged traded securities which are valued at quoted input prices that are directly observable or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. See Note 10 – Debt for additional detail on outstanding ~~debt of SBH and SB/RH.~~debt. See Note 11 – Derivatives for additional detail on derivative assets and liabilities.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and short term debt approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. Goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets are tested annually or more frequently if an event occurs that indicates an impairment loss may have been incurred using fair value measurements with unobservable inputs (Level 3).

During the three month period ended January 3, 2021, the Company held equity investments in Energizer common stock valued at quoted market prices, recognizing unrealized income from changes in fair value and realized income from the sale of its investment, plus dividend income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company sold its remaining investment in Energizer common stock in January 2021.

The Company recognizes share based compensation expense from the issuance of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), primarily under its Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"),. RSUs granted under the LTIP include time-based grants and performance-based grants. The Company regularly issues annual RSU grants under its LTIP during the first quarter of the fiscal year. Compensation cost is based on the fair value of the awards, as determined by the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock on the designated grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. ~~RSUs granted under the LTIP include time-based grants and performance based grants.~~ Time-based RSU awards provide for either three year cliff vesting or graded vesting depending upon the vesting conditions and forfeitures provided by the grant. Performance-based RSU awards ~~that~~ are dependent upon achieving specified financial metrics (adjusted EBITDA, return on adjusted equity, and/or adjusted free cash flow) by the end of the three year vesting period. The Company assesses the probability of achievement of the performance conditions and recognizes expense for the awards based on the probable achievement of such metrics. Additionally, the Company regularly issues individual RSU awards under its equity plan to its Board members and individual employees for recognition, incentive, or retention purposes, when needed, which are primarily conditional upon time-based service conditions, valued based on the fair value of the awards as determined by the market price of the Company's share of common stock on the designated grant price date and recognized as a component of share-based compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. ~~The Company regularly issues annual grants under its LTIP during~~RSUs are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting with forfeitures recognized as they occur. RSUs have dividend equivalents credited to the ~~first quarter~~recipient and are paid only to the extent the RSU vests and the related stock is issued. Shares issued upon exercise of ~~the fiscal year.~~RSUs are sourced from treasury shares when available.

NOTE 16 – INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and ~~April~~July 4, 2021 was as follows:


		Three Month Periods Ended				Six Month Periods Ended					Three Month Periods Ended				Nine Month Periods Ended
Effective tax rate	Effective tax rate	April 3, 2022		April 4, 2021		April 3, 2022		April 4, 2021		Effective tax rate	July 3, 2022		July 4, 2021		July 3, 2022		July 4, 2021
SBH	SBH	21.3	%	13.3	%	29.2	%	(75.2)	%	SBH	40.2	%	122.4	%	28.5	%	36.3	%
SB/RH	SB/RH	21.1	%	10.2	%	29.1	%	(58.7)	%	SB/RH	34.9	%	110.3	%	28.6	%	35.7	%

The estimated annual effective tax rate applied to the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 differs from the US federal statutory rate of 21% principally due to income earned outside the U.S. that is subject to U.S. tax, including the U.S. tax on global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”), certain nondeductible expenses, foreign rates that differ from the USU.S. federal statutory rate, and state income taxes. The Company has U.S. net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL"), which do not allow it to take advantage of the foreign-derived intangible income deduction. The Company’s federal effective tax rate on GILTI is therefore 21%.

During the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company recorded a $3.2 million tax benefit as an adjustment to the estimated benefit recorded in Fiscal 2021 for the Final Regulations issued under Internal Revenue Code Section 951A relating to the treatment of income that is subject to a high rate of tax under the GILTI regime. The Company completed and filed the amended return implementing these Regulations during the ~~six~~nine month period ending ~~April~~July 3, 2022. The Company also recorded a $2.5 million tax benefit during the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 for windfalls associated with the vesting of share compensation during the year. The Company generated a pretax loss on continuing operations year to date, so additional discrete tax benefits result in an increase to the tax rate.

In addition, the Company recorded $2.2 million of tax expense during the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 for taxes associated with preparing the Company for a strategic separation of the HPC segment. The Company expects to record additional taxes related to the transactions necessary to prepare for a strategic separation in the three month period ending September 30, 2022.

On April 4, 2022, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado ruled that the IRC Section 245A temporary regulations (“245A Regulations”) adopted by the Treasury Department in June of 2019 were invalid. The ruling is expected to be appealed, and the Company has been advised that similar challenges are ongoing in other U.S. districts. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company filed a protective amended U.S. income tax return consistent with the 245A Regulations being invalid. The Company has determined that this position is not more likely than not to be upheld and therefore did not record a tax benefit for this amended return in the period ended July 3, 2022. Should the 245A Regulations ultimately be found invalid, the Company estimates it would recognize a tax benefit of approximately $64.2 million.

As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, and September 30, 2021, there was ~~$1.8~~$8.3 million of income tax receivable and $8.0 million of income taxes payable, respectively, with its parent company, on the SB/RH Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, calculated as if SB/RH were a separate taxpayer.

NOTE 17 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a defendant in various litigation matters generally arising out of the ordinary course of business. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that any additional matters or proceedings presently pending will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

Shareholder Litigation. On July 12, 2019, an amended consolidated class action complaint filed earlier in 2018 was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (the “Court”) by the Public School Teachers’ Pension & Retirement Fund of Chicago and the Cambridge Retirement against Spectrum Brands’ Legacy, Inc. (“Spectrum Legacy”). The complaint alleges that the defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The amended complaint added HRG Group, Inc. (“HRG”), the predecessor to the Company, as a defendant and asserted additional claims against the Company on behalf of a purported class of HRG shareholders. The class period of the consolidated amended complaint is from January 26, 2017 to November 19, 2018, and the plaintiffs seek an unspecified amount of compensatory damages, interest, attorneys’ and expert fees and costs. During the year ended September 30, 2020, the Company reached a proposed settlement resulting in an insignificant loss, net of third-party insurance coverage and payment, pending final approval by the Court. In February 2021, the Court declined to approve the proposed settlement without prejudice because the Court determined that as a procedural matter the plaintiff’s counsel had not taken the appropriate actions to be appointed to represent the purported class of HRG shareholders. The court subsequently appointed separate counsel to represent the HRG shareholder class. In August 2021, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the claims of the Spectrum Legacy class, the cost of which has been defrayed by third-party insurance. In October 2021, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the claims of the HRG class, the cost of which also has been defrayed by third-party insurance. In March 2022, the court granted approval to both ~~settlements with formal opinion and order forthcoming.~~settlements.

~~Environmental.~~Environmental Liability. The Company has ~~provided for~~realized commitments attributable to environmental remediation activities primarily associated with former manufacturing sites of the Company's HPC segment. In coordination with local and federal regulatory agencies, we have conducted testing on certain sites which have resulted in the identification of contamination that has been attributed to historic activities at the properties, resulting in the realization of incremental costs to be assumed by the Company towards the remediation of these properties and the recognition of an ~~estimated cost~~environmental remediation liability. We have not conducted invasive testing at all sites and locations and have identified an environmental remediation liability to the extent such remediation requirements have been identified and are considered estimable.

As of ~~$10.5 million and $11.3 million as of April~~July 3, 2022, there was an environmental remediation liability of $10.8 million with $7.4 million included in Other Current Liabilities and $3.4 million included in Other Long-Term Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. As of September 30, 2021, ~~respectively, associated with~~there was an environmental remediation ~~activities at some~~liability of ~~its current and former manufacturing sites,~~$11.3 million included in Other Long-Term Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The Company believes that any additional liability in excess of the amounts provided that may result from resolution of these matters, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

Product Liability. The Company may be named as a defendant in lawsuits involving product liability claims. The Company has recorded and maintains an estimated liability in the amount of management’s estimate for aggregate exposure for such liabilities based upon probable loss from loss reports, individual cases, and losses incurred but not reported. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company recognized ~~$3.3~~$3.6 million and $3.0 million in product liability, respectively, included in Other Current Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The Company believes that any additional liability in excess of the amounts provided that may result from resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Product Warranty. The Company recognizes an estimated liability for standard warranty on certain products when we recognize revenue on the sale of the warranted products. Estimated warranty costs incorporate replacement parts, products and delivery, and are recorded as a cost of goods sold at the time of product shipment based on historical and projected warranty claim rates, claims experience and any additional anticipated future costs on previously sold products. The Company recognized $0.3 million and $0.4 million of warranty accruals as of ~~April~~July 3, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, included in Other Current Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

The Chief Operating Decision Maker of the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as the primary operating metric in evaluating the business and making operating decisions. EBITDA is calculated by excluding the Company’s income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense (from intangible assets) from net income. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes:

•Stock based compensation costs consist of costs associated with long-term incentive compensation arrangements that generally consist of non-cash, stock-based compensation. During the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 4, 2021, compensation costs included incentive bridge awards previously issued due to changes in the Company’s LTIP that allowed for cash based payment upon employee election but do not qualify for shared-based compensation, which were fully vested in November 2020.

•Incremental amounts realized towards restructuring and optimization projects including, but not limited to, costs towards the SAP S/4 HANA ERP transformation to implement our enterprise-wide operating systems to SAP S/4 HANA on a global basis. This is a multi-year project that includes various costs, including software configurationdevelopment and implementation of strategies to optimize operations and improve efficiency, reduce costs, ~~that would be recognized~~increase revenues, increase or maintain our current profit margins, including recognition of one-time exit or disposal costs. These amounts are excluded from our ongoing performance metrics as ~~capital expenditures~~they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards significant initiatives controlled by management, incremental costs directly attributable to such initiatives, indirect impact or ~~deferred costs in accordance with applicable accounting policies, with certain costs recognized as~~disruption to operating ~~expense associated with project development~~performance during implementation, and ~~management costs, and professional services with business partners engaged towards planning, design and business process review that would~~are not ~~qualify as software implementation costs.

•Unallocated shared costs associated with discontinued operations from certain shared and center-led administrative functions the Company's business units excluded from income from discontinued operations as they are not a direct cost of the discontinued business but a result of indirect allocations, including but not limited to, information technology, human resources, finance and accounting, supply chain, and commercial operations. Amounts attributable to unallocated shared costs would be mitigated through subsequent strategic or restructuring initiatives, TSAs, elimination of extraneous costs, or re-allocations or absorption of existing continuing operations following the completed sale of the discontinued operations. See Note 2 – Divestitures for further details;

•Non-cash purchase accounting adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition, including, but not limited to, the costs attributable to the step-up in inventory value, and the incremental value in ~~ROU~~ operating lease assets with below market rent, among others;

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

Introduction

The following is management’s discussion of the financial results, liquidity and other key items related to our performance and should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” are used to refer to Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("SBH") and SB/RH Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (“SB/RH”), collectively.

Business Overview

The Company is a diversified global branded consumer products company. We manage the businesses in three vertically integrated, product-focused segments: (i) Home and Personal Care (“HPC”), (ii) Global Pet Care (“GPC”), and (iii) Home and Garden (“H&G”). The Company manufactures, markets and/or distributes its products globally in the North America (“NA”), Europe, Middle East & Africa (“EMEA”), Latin America (“LATAM”) and Asia-Pacific (“APAC”) regions through a variety of trade channels, including retailers, wholesalers and distributors. We enjoy strong name recognition in our regions under our various brands and patented technologies across multiple product categories. Global and geographic strategic initiatives and financial objectives are determined at the corporate level. Each segment is responsible for implementing defined strategic initiatives and achieving certain financial objectives and has a president responsible for sales and marketing initiatives and financial results for all product lines within that segment, on a global basis. The segments are supported through center-led shared service operations and enabling functions consisting of finance and accounting, information technology, legal, human resources, supply chain, and commercial operations.

•Omega Acquisition - On March 10, 2020, the Company acquired Omega Sea, LLC ("Omega"), a manufacturer and marketer of premium fish foods and consumable goods for the home and commercial aquarium markets, primarily consisting of the Omega brand. The net assets and results of operations of Omega are included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and reported within GPC segment for the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021. The Company incurred incremental costs to combine and integrate the acquired business within the GPC segment, primarily towards the integration of systems and process, transfer of inventory and production to an existing GPC facility, including related exit and disposal costs of the assumed leased facility, related start-up costs and operational inefficiencies attributable to the transferred production, plus retention costs for personnel supporting the transition and integration after the transaction date. Costs attributable to the integration of the Omega business will be substantially realized by end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022.

•HHI Divestiture - On September 8, 2021, the Company entered into a ASPA with ASSA to sell its HHI segment. The consummation of the transaction is pending and subject to customary conditions, including the absence of a material adverse effect of HHI and certain antitrust conditions or other governmental restrictions, amongst others. The Company's assets and liabilities associated with HHI have been classified as held for sale and the HHI operations have been classified as discontinued operations and are reported separately for all periods presented. See Note 2 - Divestitures included in Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for ~~more information.~~further detail. The Company has incurred incremental costs attributable to the pending divestiture, primarily consisting of legal and professional fees to effect the realization of the ASPA, facilitate antitrust or other governmental restrictions to consummate the transaction, preparation for separation of systems and processes supporting the divested business and enabling functions under a TSA, plus incremental retention costs for personnel supporting the transition efforts. Incremental costs are expected to be incurred through the consummation of the pending transaction to support TSA processes and mitigation following the close of the sale, which are expected to be incurred for the transition period of approximately 12-24 months following the close of the transaction.

•HPC Separation - The Company has initiated projects to facilitate a strategic separation of the Company's ownership in the HPC segment in the most advantageous way to realize value for both the HPC business as a standalone appliance business either through a spin, merger or sale of the business and the retained GPC and H&G businesses of the consolidated group. Costs are primarily attributable to legal and professional fees incurred to assess opportunities, evaluate transaction considerations for a separation, including potential tax and compliance implications to the consolidated group, costs directly attributable to the legal entity separation and transfer of net assets of the HPC operations from the commingled operations of the Company, plus the segregation of systems and processes. The realization of the transaction, if any, is likely not to occur until after completion of the HHI divestiture. Costs attributable to the initiative are expected to be incurred until a transaction is realized or otherwise cancelled.

•Coevorden Operations - On March 29, 2020, the Company completed the sale of its dog and cat food ("DCF") production facility and distribution center in Coevorden, Netherlands with United Petfood Producers NV ("UPP"). See Note 2 - Divestitures included in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021, for further detail. Following the separation of the Coevorden Operations, the Company has incurred incremental costs attributable to a tolling charge for the continued production of dog and cat food products through a three-year manufacturing agreement with the buyer entered into concurrent with the sale, rent charges associated with the transferred warehouse operated by the Company during an 18-month transition period following the sale, plus costs to facilitate the transfer of the warehouse operations to the buyer and the movement of inventory and distribution center operations to a new distribution center supporting GPC operations in EMEA. Costs attributable to the tolling arrangement are expected to be completed in March 2023.

The following is a summary of costs attributable to strategic transactions and business development costs for the respective projects during three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021. In addition to the initiatives discussed above, the Company regularly engages in other business development initiatives that may incur incremental costs which may not result in a realized transaction or are less significant, and therefore have been separately disclosed and recognized as other project costs.

Restructuring ~~Activity~~and Optimization Initiatives

We continually seek and develop operating strategies to improve our operational efficiency, match our capacity and product costs to market demand and better utilize our manufacturing and distribution resources in order to reduce costs, increase revenues, increase or maintain our current profit margins. We have undertaken various initiatives to reduce manufacturing and operating costs, which may have a significant impact on the comparability of financial results on the condensed consolidated financial statements. ~~See~~ ~~Note 4 – Restructuring and Related Charges~~ ~~in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for more information.~~

These changes and updates are inherently difficult and are made even more difficult by current global economic conditions. Our ability to achieve the anticipated cost savings and other benefits from such operating strategies may be affected by a number of other macro-economic factors such as COVID-19, or inflation increased interest rates, many of which are beyond or control. The following initiatives have been considered as having a significant impact on the comparability of the financial results on the condensed consolidated financial statements and segment financial information.

•Fiscal 2022 Restructuring - The Company entered into a new initiative in response to changes observed within consumer products and retail markets, continued inflationary cost pressures and headwinds, resulting in the realization of a headcount reduction. Substantially all costs associated with the initiative have been recognized. See Note 4 - Restructuring Charges for further detail on related exit or disposal costs attributable to this initiative.

•Global ERP Transformation - During the year ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into a SAP S/4 HANA ERP transformation project to upgrade and implement our enterprise-wide operating systems to SAP S/4 HANA on a global basis. This is a multi-year project that includes various costs, including software configuration and implementation costs that would be recognized as capital expenditures or deferred costs in accordance with applicable accounting policies, with certain costs recognized as operating expense associated with project development and project management costs, and professional services with business partners engaged towards planning, design and business process review that would not qualify as software configuration and implementation costs. The Company has substantially completed the design phase of the project and is currently moving into the building and design phase.

•GPC Distribution Transition - During the year ended September 30, 2021, the GPC segment entered into an initiative to update its supply chain and distribution operations within the U.S. to address capacity needs, optimize and improve fill rates attributable to recent growth in the business and consumer demand, and improve overall operational effectiveness and throughput. The initiative includes the transition of its third party logistics (3PL) service provider at its existing distribution center, incorporating new facilities into the distribution footprint by expanding warehouse capacity and securing additional space to support long-term distribution and fulfillment, plus updating engagement and processes with suppliers and its transportation and logistics handlers. Incremental costs include one-time transition, implementation and start-up cost with the new 3PL service provider, including the integration of provider systems and technology, incentive-based compensation to maintain performance during transition, duplicative and redundant costs, and incremental costs for various disruptions in the operations during the transition period including supplemental transportation and storage costs, incremental detention and demurrage costs. See Note 4 - Restructuring Charges for further detail on costs attributable to the program. The project has been substantially completed with no significant anticipated future costs. Additionally, the Company experienced an increase in customer fines and penalties during the transition period (recognized as a reduction in net sales). Costs attributable to the initiative are expected to be incurred through the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022.

•Global Productivity Improvement Program - During the year ended September 30, 2019, the Company initiated a company-wide, multi-year program, consisting of various restructuring related initiatives to redirect resources and spending to drive growth, identify cost savings and pricing opportunities through standardization and optimization, develop organizational and operating optimization, and reduce overall operational complexity across the Company. With the Company’s divestitures of GBL and GAC during the year ended September 30, 2019, the project focus includes the transition of the Company’s continuing operations in a post-divestiture environment and exiting of TSAs, which were fully exited in January 2022. The initiative includes review of global processes and organization design and structures, headcount reductions and transfers, and rightsizing the Company’s shared operations and commercial business strategy and exit of certain internal production to third-party suppliers, among others, resulting in the recognition of severance benefits and other exit and disposal costs to facilitate such activity. See Note 4 - Restructuring Charges for further detail on costs attributable to the program. The project has been substantially completed with no significant anticipated future costs.

•HPC Brand Portfolio Transitions - In light of the acquisition of the Tristar Business and the PowerXL® brand, the Company has initiated a project within its HPC segment to assess and evaluate the current utilization of tradenames and brands across its portfolio of home and kitchen appliance products. The project will require incremental costs to facilitate potential transitions of branded product offerings on global basis, including potential investment with our supply base and retail partners to manage inventory and transition new branded products to market.

•Russia Closing Initiative - The Company initiated an assessment of its in-country commercial operations in Russia, predominantly supporting the HPC segment, and other commercial activity directly impacted by the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Company has recognized impairment costs on inventory and receivables that are at risk of recoverability as the Company has discontinued importing products directly into Russia. The initiative may be subject to further exit and disposal costs based upon future actions taken.

The following is a summary of impact to operating results attributable to restructuring initiatives and other optimization projects, incurred for the respective projects during three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 and July 4, 2021. In addition to the projects and initiatives discussed above, the Company regularly incurs cost and engages in less significant restructuring and optimization initiatives that individually are not substantial and occur over a shorter time period (generally less than 12 months).

Refinancing Activity

Financing activity during and between comparable periods may have a significant impact on the comparability of financial results on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•On February 3, 2022, the Company entered into the third amendment to the Credit Agreement that provides for incremental capacity on the Revolver Facility of $500 million that was used to support the acquisition of the Tristar Business and the continuing operations and working capital requirements of the Company. Borrowings under the incremental capacity are subject to a borrowing rate which is subject to SOFR plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%, per annum or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75% per annum, with an increase by 25 basis points 270 days after the effective date of the third amendment and an additional 25 basis points on each 90 day anniversary of such date.

•During the year ended September 30, 2021, the Company completed its offering of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.875% Notes and entered into a new Term Loan Facility in the aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million on March 3, 2021. The Company also redeemed $250.0 million of the 6.125% Notes and $550.0 million of the 5.75% Notes, with a call premium of $23.4 million and non-cash write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $7.9 million recognized as interest expense.

Russia-Ukraine ~~War~~Conflict

The impacts of the Russia-Ukraine ~~war~~conflict and the sanctions imposed by other nations in response to the conflict are evolving and may have an impact on the Company's consolidated operations and cash flow attributable to operations and distribution within the region. The Company does not maintain a significant level of operations within Ukraine and continues to evaluate its strategy with Russia and the existing operations within the territory. The Company does not maintain material assets within Russia, and the Company's assets in Russia consist mostly of working capital associated with the in-country distribution operations. In response to matters within the territory, we have adjusted our risks associated with the ~~collectibility~~collectability and realizable value for working capital within the region. Depending on the strategic direction we take towards our existing operations in Russia, there may be incremental ~~restructuring~~ costs or potential impairments to remediate.

~~Table of Contents~~

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting regulations ~~continue to cause~~have caused economic and social disruptions that contribute to ongoing uncertainties and may have an impact on the operations, cash flow and net assets of the Company. Such impacts may include, but are not limited to, volatility of demand for our products; disruptions and cost implications in manufacturing and supply arrangements; inability of third parties to meet obligations under existing arrangements; and significant changes to the political and economic environments in which we manufacture, sell, and distribute our products. The Company expects a significant continuing inflationary environment, marked with higher manufacturing, employment, and logistics costs as well as continued constraints with transportation and supply chain disruptions. Additionally, there have also been changes in consumer needs and spending during the COVID-19 pandemic, and while we experienced an increase in demand for our products ~~remain strong,~~resulting from changes driven by the pandemic, our teams continue to monitor demand shifts and there can be no assurance as to the level of demand that will prevail throughout the fiscal year. We believe the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic to be uncertain and may contribute to retail volatility and consumer purchase behavior changes.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not had a materially negative impact on the Company’s liquidity position and we have not observed any material impairments. We continue to actively monitor our global cash and liquidity, and if necessary, could reinitiate mitigating efforts to manage non-critical spending and assess operating spend to preserve cash and liquidity. We continue to generate operating cash flows to meet our short-term liquidity needs, and we expect to maintain access to the capital markets, although there can be no assurance of our ability to do so. We expect the ultimate significance of the impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows will be dictated by the length of time that such circumstances continue, which will ultimately depend on the unforeseeable duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the emergence of variants and the effectiveness of vaccines against these variants, and any governmental and public actions taken in response.

Inflation and Supply Chain Constraints

While certain aspects of our financial results have been favorably impacted by increased demand attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to favorable consumer conditions including incremental financial assistance provided by various government agencies, our business continues to experience challenges towards product availability to meet customer demand. We have experienced increased labor shortages in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in transportation and supply chain disruptions. Together with labor shortages and higher demand for talent, the current economic environment is driving higher wages. Our ability to meet labor needs, control wage and labor-related costs and minimize labor disruptions will be key to our success of operating our business and executing our business strategies. Furthermore, our business is experiencing an inflationary environment, which has negatively impacted our gross margin rates. We are unable to predict how long the current inflationary environment, including increased energy costs, will continue. Additionally, we have experienced further supply chain disruptions from unanticipated shutdowns in our supply base and limitations within transportation and logistics impacting availability and increasing freight costs within the overall global supply chain. We expect the economic environment to remain uncertain as we navigate the current geopolitical environment, the COVID-19 pandemic, labor challenges, supply chain constraints and the current inflationary environment, including increasing energy and commodity prices.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Our consolidated and segment results contain non-GAAP metrics such as organic net sales, and adjusted EBITDA (“Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization”) and adjusted EBITDA margin. While we believe organic net sales and adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our financial results in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

Organic Net Sales. We define organic net sales as net sales excluding the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and impact from acquisitions (when applicable). We believe this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors because it reflects regional and operating segment performance from our activities without the effect of changes in currency exchange rates and acquisitions. We use organic net sales as one measure to monitor and evaluate our regional and segment performance. Organic growth is calculated by comparing organic net sales to net sales in the prior year. The effect of changes in currency exchange rates is determined by translating the period’s net sales using the currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior comparative period. Net sales are attributed to the geographic regions based on the country of destination. We exclude net sales from acquired businesses in the current year for which there are no comparable sales in the prior year.

The following is a reconciliation of reported net sales to organic net sales for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 compared to net sales for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 4, 2021:

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures used by management, which we believe provide useful information to investors because they reflect ongoing operating performance and trends of our segments, excluding certain non-cash based expenses and/or non-recurring items during each of the comparable periods. They also facilitate comparisons between peer companies since interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA is also used for determining compliance with the Company’s debt covenants. EBITDA is calculated by excluding the Company’s income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization expense (from intangible assets) from net income. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes:

•~~Restructuring~~Incremental amounts attributable to strategic transactions and ~~related charges consist of project costs associated with the restructuring~~business development initiatives ~~across the Company's segments. See~~ ~~Note 4 – Restructuring and Related Charges~~ ~~in the Notes~~including, but not limited to, the ~~Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, for further details;~~

•~~Transaction related charges~~acquisition or divestitures of a business, costs to effect and facilitate a transaction, including such cost to integrate or separate the respective business. These amounts are excluded from our performance metrics as they are reflective of incremental investment by the Company towards business development activities, incremental costs attributable to ~~costs from qualifying strategic transaction~~such transactions and are not considered recurring or ~~business opportunities, including an acquisition~~reflective of the continuing ongoing operations of the consolidated group or ~~divestiture, whether or not consummated, subsequent integration related project costs, divestiture support and incremental separation costs. See~~ ~~Note 1 – Basis of Presentation & Significant Accounting Policies~~ ~~in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, for further details;~~segments;

•Non-cash purchase accounting adjustments recognized in earnings from continuing operations subsequent to an acquisition, including, but not limited to, the costs attributable to the step-up in inventory value and the incremental value in ~~ROU~~ operating lease assets with below market rent, among others;

•Non-cash asset impairments or write-offs realized and recognized in earnings from continuing operations;

•Gains attributable to the Company's investment in Energizer common stock during the ~~three and six~~nine month ~~periods~~period ended ~~April~~July 4, 2021. with such remaining shares sold in January 2021. See Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, for further details;

•Other adjustments are primarily attributable to: (1) incremental trade spend reserves realized from the transition and integration of the Rejuvenate business into the H&G segment and the Company's systems and processes during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2022, (2) incremental fines and penalties for delayed shipments attributable to the GPC distribution transition initiative during the three and six month periods ended April 3, 2022, and (3) costs associated with Salus as they are not considered a component of the continuing commercial products ~~company.~~company and (2) other key executive severance related costs.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of reported net sales for the respective period and segment.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three month period increased primarily from acquisitions and positive pricing adjustments with a decrease in gross profit margin due to reduced volumes and absorption losses with increased supply chain costs from higher inventory and continued supply chain challenges. Gross profit and gross profit margin for the ~~three and six~~nine month ~~periods~~period decreased primarily due to accelerated freight and input cost inflation pacing ahead of pricing actions earlier in the period, lower ~~volume~~volumes compared to prior year reopening trends and stimulus spending, ~~with~~as well as increased supply chain costs from higher inventory and constrained supply chain reducing product availability to meet customer ~~demands, partially offset by productivity and product mix improvements.~~

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the three month period increased due to an increase in selling ~~general and administrative~~ expenses of ~~$23.4~~$25.9 million from higher distribution and transportation costs, higher warehousing and inventory management costs, operating inefficiencies from labor inflation and ~~turnover with continued investment in marketing and new product development, offset by lower incentive compensation costs, with an~~turnover; increase in ~~restructuring~~general and ~~related charges~~administrative expenses of ~~$12.2~~$5.4 million ~~and an increase in transaction related costs of $12.0 million for further investments~~with increased investment in strategic transactions and restructuring ~~initiatives.~~related project costs offset by reduced incentive compensation; offset by realized gain of $25.0 million from the contingent consideration liability associated with the Tristar Business acquisition.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three month period increased due to a higher level of outstanding borrowings on the Revolver Facility used to fund the Tristar Business acquisition and ~~six~~working capital requirements with increased borrowing rates on variable rate debt. Interest expense for the nine month ~~periods~~period decreased due to the refinancing activity in the prior year resulting in a make whole premium of $23.4 million and write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $7.9 million recognized in the prior ~~year.~~year, partially offset by the higher level of outstanding borrowings on the Revolver Facility and increased borrowing rates on variable rate debt.

Income Taxes. Our estimated annual effective tax rate was impacted for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods by income earned outside the U.S. that is subject to U.S. tax, including the U.S. tax on global intangible low taxed income, certain nondeductible expenses, foreign rates that differ from the USU.S. federal statutory rate, and state income taxes. During the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company recorded a $3.2 million benefit due to the impact of an amended return filed during the year and the Company also recognized an additional $2.5 million benefit due to windfalls associated with the vesting of share compensation during the year. The Company also recognized $2.2 million of tax expense during the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2022 for taxes associated with preparing the Company for a strategic separation of the HPC segment.

Income From Discontinued Operations.Income or loss attributable to discontinued operations primarily reflect the income from the discontinued operations of the HHI segment and the incremental changes to tax and legal indemnifications associated with the Company's previous divestitures of its GBL and GAC ~~divisions to Energizer during the year ended September 30, 2019.~~divisions. Income from discontinued operations attributable to the HHI segment ~~increased~~decreased during the three month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 due to lower volumes offset by pricing increases ~~offsetting increasing~~to address inflationary costs and freight spend and lower depreciation and amortization while held for sale. Income from discontinued operations attributable to the HHI segment decreased during the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 due to lower sales volume following post-pandemic volumes in the prior year, increasing inflationary costs and higher freight spend outpacing pricing actions ~~and~~earlier in the period, partially offset by lower depreciation and amortization while held for sale.

Noncontrolling Interest. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interest reflects the share of the net income of our subsidiaries, which are not wholly-owned, attributable to the accounting interest. Such amount varies in relation to such subsidiary’s net income or loss for the period and the percentage interest not owned by SBH.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows used in SBH's continuing operations increased ~~$105.1~~$108.2 million primarily due to a decrease in operating results with an increase in cash paid towards ~~working capital for inventory and~~ inflationary costs on raw materials and products, labor and freight, increased supply chain costs from higher inventory, plus higher retail inventory driving down replenishment orders, coupled with an increase in cash paid towards ~~for taxes,~~ strategic transactions and restructuring initiatives. Cash flows used in SB/RH continuing operations increased ~~$131.0~~$133.9 million primarily due to the items previously discussed ~~above except for an incremental operating cash outflow to its parent company for federal net operating losses under the Company’s tax sharing agreement in the prior year.~~above.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities for SBH continuing operations ~~increased $265.0~~decreased $65.6 million primarily due to the decreased use of cash paid for the ~~acquisition,~~acquisitions, net of cash acquired, for the purchase of the Tristar Business of ~~$314.3~~$272.1 million compared to the ~~purchase~~purchases of Armitage ~~of $129.8~~and Rejuvenate for $429.5 million in the prior year, offset by the net proceeds from the sale of Energizer common stock of $73.1 million in the prior year, with an increase in capital expenditures of ~~$7.7~~$19.1 million predominantly due to incremental investments in updating the Company's enterprise-wide operating ~~system to SAP S/4 HANA.~~systems. Cash flows used in investing activities of SB/RH decreased ~~primarily~~ due to the items previously discussed.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows provided by financing activities for continuing operations increased ~~$647.0~~$558.5 million primarily due to increased borrowings on the Revolver Facility to support the Tristar Business acquisition and working capital requirements, ~~from continued supply disruptions,~~ partially offset by an increase in stock repurchase activity earlier in the period and higher share based stock award withholding payments from the vesting onof LTIP grants. During the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company realized $775.0 million of proceeds from the Revolver Facility with amortizing payments on other outstanding debt of ~~$6.5~~$9.8 million. Refer to Note 10 – Debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for more information on debt borrowings. During the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company repurchased $134.0 million of treasury stock at an average cost of $97.34, primarily through the Company's 10b5-1 repurchase plan which the Company completed ~~during~~earlier in the ~~six month period ended April 3, 2022.~~period.

Liquidity Outlook

Our ability to generate ~~significant~~ cash flow from operating activities coupled with our expected ability to access the credit markets, enables us to execute our growth strategies and return value to our shareholders. Our ability to make principal and interest ~~payment~~payments on borrowings under our debt agreements and our ability to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on the ability to generate cash in the future, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other conditions. ~~Based~~Despite the recent reduction in operating cash flow, we believe the negative operating cash flow recognized for the nine month period ended July 3, 2022 is not indicative of the ongoing near-term operations of the Company and based upon our current and anticipated level of operations, existing cash balances and availability under our credit facility, we expect cash flows from operations to be sufficient to meet our operating and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. Additionally, we believe the availability under our credit facility and access to capital markets are sufficient to achieve our longer-term strategic plans. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, the Company had borrowing availability of ~~$308.4~~$307.3 million, net of outstanding letters of credit, under our credit facility. Liquidity and capital resources of SB/RH are highly dependent upon the cash flow activities of SBH.

Short-term financing needs primarily consist of working capital requirements, restructuring initiatives, capital spending, and periodic principal and interest payments on our long-term debt. Long-term financing needs depend largely on potential growth opportunities, including acquisition activity and repayment or refinancing of our long-term obligations. Our long-term liquidity may be influenced by our ability to borrow additional funds, renegotiate existing debt, and raise equity under terms that are favorable to us. We also have long-term obligations associated with defined benefit plans with expected minimum required contributions that are not considered significant to the consolidated group.

We may, from time-to-time, seek to repurchase shares of our common stock. During the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2021, SBH entered into a $150.0 million rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan to facilitate daily market share repurchases through September 16, 2022, until the cap set forth in the plan was reached or until the plan was terminated. The Company completed share repurchases of $150.0 million under the rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan ~~during~~earlier in the ~~three month period ended April 3, 2022.~~fiscal year. See Note 13 – Shareholders’ Equity in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further detail. Any further repurchase activity, if any, will dependent on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements and other factors.

We maintain a capital structure that we believe provides us with sufficient access to credit markets. When combined with strong levels of cash flow from operations, our capital structure has provided the flexibility necessary to pursue strategic growth opportunities and return value to our shareholders. The Company’s access to capital markets and financing costs may depend on the Company’s credit ratings. None of the Company’s current borrowings are subject to default or acceleration as a result of a downgrading of credit ratings, although a downgrade of the Company’s credit ratings could increase fees and interest charges on future borrowings. At ~~April~~July 3, 2022, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the 5.75% Notes, due July 15, 2025, the 4.00% Notes, due October 1, 2026, the 5.00% Notes, due October 1, 2029, the 5.50% Notes due July 15, 2030, and the 3.875% Notes, ~~5.00% Notes, 5.50% Notes, 5.75% Notes, and 4.00% Notes.~~due March 15, 2031.

A portion of our cash balance is located outside the U.S. given our international operations. We manage our worldwide cash requirements centrally by reviewing available cash balances across our worldwide group and the cost effectiveness with which this cash can be accessed. We generally repatriate cash from non-U.S. subsidiaries, provided the cost of the repatriation is not considered material. The counterparties that hold our deposits consist of major financial institutions.

The majority of our business is not considered seasonal with a year round selling cycle that is overall consistent during the fiscal year with the exception of our H&G segment. H&G sales typically peak during the first six months of the calendar year (the Company's second and third fiscal quarters) due to customer seasonal purchasing patterns and the timing of promotional activity. This seasonality requires the Company to ship large quantities of product ahead of peak consumer buying season that can impact cash flow demands to meet manufacturing and inventory requirements earlier in the fiscal year, as well as extended credit terms and/or promotional discounts throughout the peak season.

From time to time the Company enters into factoring agreements and customers' supply chain financing arrangements to provide for the sale of certain trade receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions. The factored receivables are accounted for as a sale without recourse, and the balance of the receivables sold are removed from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at the time of the sales transaction, with the proceeds received recognized as an operating cash flow. Amounts received from customers for factored receivables are recognized as a payable and remitted to the factor based upon terms of the factoring agreements. The Company factored certain of its trade receivables during the three and nine month periods ending July 3, 2022. Additionally, the Company facilitates a voluntary supply chain financing program to provide certain of its suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from the Company (the Company's trade payables) to an unrelated third-party financial institution under the sole discretion of the supplier and the participating financial institution. There are no guarantees provided by the Company or its subsidiaries and we do not enter into any agreements with the suppliers regarding their participation. The Company's responsibility is limited to payments on the original terms negotiated with its suppliers, regardless of whether the suppliers sell their receivables to the financial institution, and continue to be recognized as accounts payable on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet with cash flow activity recognized as an operating cash flow.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not, as of the date of this report, materially impacted our operations and cash flows and has not had a materially negative impact on the Company’s liquidity position, although there can be no assurance that it won't have a material negative impact on us in the future. Nonetheless, we continue to actively monitor our global cash balances and liquidity, and if necessary, could reinitiate mitigating efforts to manage non-critical spending and assess operating spend to preserve cash and liquidity. Despite recent inflationary costs and rising freight costs, we continue to generate operating cash flows to meet our short-term liquidity needs, although inflationary pressures have cause pressure on cash flow generation in the three and wenine month periods ending July 3, 2022. We expect to maintain access to the capital markets, although there can be no assurance of our ability to do so. However, the economic and social disruption attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic could lead to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which, depending on future developments, could impact our capital resources and liquidity in the future.

During the three month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022, there has been no material changes to our debt obligations, lease obligations, employee benefit obligations or other contractual obligations or commercial commitments previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021 other than the increased revolver capacity and borrowings under the Company's Credit Agreement, which have a maturity date of June 30, 2025 and are subject to repayment or re-borrowing by the Company without penalty. See Note 10 – Debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for further detail. We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk Factors

No material change in the Company’s market risk has occurred during the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 with the exception of the increase in capacity and borrowings under our Revolver Facility that are subject to variable interest rates. If market interest rates continue to increase, the interest rate on our variable rate debt will increase and will create higher debt service requirements, which would adversely affect our cash flow and could adversely impact our results of operations. The general levels of SOFR and LIBOR affect our interest expense. As of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, we had ~~$1,171.0~~$1,170.0 million subject to variable interest rates, or ~~35.6%~~35.9% of total debt, which increased from $398.0 million and 15.7% of total debt as of September 30, 2021. Assuming an increase to market rates of 1.0% as of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, we would incur an increase to annual interest expense of ~~$10.0~~$5.7 million.

For additional information, refer to Note 10 – Debt and Note 11 – Derivatives to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement included elsewhere in the Quarterly Report and to Part II, Items 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, SBH’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to SBH’s management, including SBH’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~April~~July 3, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. SBH’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that SBH’s disclosure controls and procedures or SBH’s internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within SBH have been detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Litigation

We are a defendant in various litigation matters generally arising in the ordinary course of business. See risk factors below and Note 17 – Commitments and Contingencies included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Based on information currently available, we do not believe that any matters or proceedings presently pending will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Information about our risk factors is contained in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 filed with the SEC on November 23, 2021 and in Item 1A of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for quarterly periods subsequently filed. We believe that as of ~~April~~July 3, 2022, with the exception of changes in the risk factors discussed below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021 and in Item 1A of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for quarterly periods subsequently ~~filed..~~filed.

Consolidation of retailers and our dependence on a small number of key customers for a significant percentage of our sales may negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a result of consolidation of retailers that has occurred during the past several years, particularly in the United States and the EU, and consumer trends toward national mass merchandisers, a significant percentage of our sales are attributable to a limited group of customers. As these mass merchandisers and retailers grow larger and become more sophisticated, they may demand lower pricing, special packaging or impose other requirements on product suppliers. These business demands may relate to inventory practices, logistics or other aspects of the customer-supplier relationship. Because of the importance of these key customers, demands for price reductions or promotions, retail inventory levels and requirements influencing their purchasing, consumer shopping behavior and patterns, and changes in their financial condition or loss of their accounts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our success is dependent on our ability to manage our retailer relationships, including offering mutually acceptable trade terms.

Although we have long-established relationships with many of our retail customers, we generally do not have long-term agreements with them and purchases are normally made through the use of individual purchase orders. Any significant reduction in purchases, failure to obtain anticipated orders or delays or cancellations of orders by any of these major retail customers, changes to retail inventory management strategies and initiatives, or significant pressure to reduce prices and support promotions and discounts from any of these major retail customers, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, any decline in retail consumer spending, a significant deterioration in the financial condition of the retail industry in general, the bankruptcy of any of our customers or any of our customers ceasing operations could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability.

As a result of retailers maintaining tighter inventory control, we face risks related to meeting demand and storing inventory.

As a result of the desire of retailers to more closely manage inventory levels, there is a growing trend among them to purchase products on a “just-in-time” basis. Due to a number of factors, including (i) manufacturing lead-times, (ii) seasonal purchasing patterns, and (iii) the potential for material price increases, we may be required to shorten our lead-time for production and more closely anticipate shifts in our retailers’ demands and consumer spending habits, which could in the future require us to carry additional inventories and increase our working capital and related financing requirements. This may increase the cost of warehousing inventory or result in excess inventory becoming difficult to manage, unusable or obsolete and impact our ability to realize the anticipated returns for product sales. In addition, if our retailers significantly change their inventory management strategies, we may encounter difficulties in filling customer orders or in liquidating excess inventories or may find that customers are cancelling orders or returning products, which may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Furthermore, we primarily sell branded products and a move by one or more of our large customers to sell significant quantities of private label products, which we do not produce on their behalf and which directly compete with our products, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face a number of local, regional, and global uncertainties and potential disruptions which could adversely impact our businesses.

We face a number of local, regional, and global uncertainties and potential disruptions which could adversely impact our businesses, our financial performance or liquidity, and our ability to carry out our go-forward plans and strategies. These economic uncertainties and potential disruptions include a slow-down in the general economy; reduced market growth rates; increased inflation rates and cost of goods; increased fuel and employee costs; higher interest rates; tighter credit markets; changes in government policies, including the imposition of tariffs or import costs; the deterioration of economic relations between countries or regions; the escalation or continuation of armed conflict, hostilities or economic sanctions between countries or regions, which can negatively impact our ability to supply or sell our products and otherwise conduct our day-to-day operations. For instance, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has led us to terminate, reduce or significantly change our business activities in these regions and certain surrounding regions. These efforts may have to continue or accelerate, including us having to further reduce or cease doing business within Russia, Ukraine, and certain surrounding regions, which could have a negative impact on our ability to collect outstanding accounts receivables, impose additional costs and negatively impact our business performance. In addition, the economic sanctions and hostilities in Russian and Ukraine, may negatively impact our and our customers’ financial viability, which may negatively impact us or the demands or economic viability of our customers not only in Russia but also in other parts of the world.

Additionally, global economic conditions or restrictions from armed conflicts or the COVID-19 pandemic may cause our suppliers, distributors, contractors, or other third-party partners to suffer financial or operating difficulties that they cannot overcome, resulting in their inability to provide us with the materials and services we need, in which case our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. For instance, our suppliers in Asia and other parts of the world have, and may continue to experience, shutdown or limitations in their operations as result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may contain or limit our ability to supply or distribute our products to our customers and negatively impact our business. Moreover, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, delays in the receipt of certain goods from international and domestic shipping origins as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and more general global supply chain constraints in both fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022. While we have taken certain remediating actions in response to the ongoing global supply chain challenges, these measures may not be sufficient and other supply chain challenges may continue to arise that are beyond our control and could negatively affect our business and financial performance.

Moreover, we continue to transition our third-party logistics service provider at our existing Edwardsville, IL distribution center and are also adding another distribution center nearby. These efforts require incorporating a new service provider into our distribution capabilities and adding another distribution center into our operations. These efforts are complicated and require coordination among a number of our stakeholder, including our suppliers and transportation and logistics handlers. These changes and updates are inherently difficult and are made even more difficult by the other uncertainties and potential disruptions our business faces. We do not control the operations of these third parties and are dependent on them to execute our orders and deliver our products in a timely and efficient way. The failure of these third parties to fulfill all of their obligations to us could result in lost sales, penalties and other adverse effects on our business. While we believe that optimizing our distribution centers and other aspects of our supply chain and customer delivery network will allow us to manage our inventory more efficiently and more efficiently respond to customer demands, there can be no assurance that we will realize such benefits. We have experienced, and may continue to experience, delays in executing these efforts. Our inability to execute, or timely execute these efforts, has resulted in us being unable to supply, or timely supply, our products to our customers or incurring higher costs and reductions in revenues, incurring penalties imposed by our customers, or may disrupt our business operations.

Furthermore, our raw materials are sourced from industries characterized by a limited supply base, and their cost can fluctuate substantially. Under many of our supply arrangements, the price we pay for raw materials fluctuates along with certain changes in underlying commodities costs. Price increases for our raw materials have placed pressure on our costs and could continue to do so, and we may not be able to effectively hedge or pass along any such increases to our customers or consumers. Furthermore, any price increases passed along to our customers or consumers could significantly reduce demand for our products and could negatively affect our business and financial performance.

The integration of the Tristar Business into our HPC segment may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected. Synergies and other anticipated benefits may not be realized within the expected time frames, or at all.

On February 18, 2022 we completed the acquisition of the Tristar Business. Our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of the Tristar Business depend, to a large extent, on our ability to integrate the acquired business into our current HPC segment in a manner that facilitates growth opportunities and achieves projected growth trends without adversely affecting revenue and investments in future growth. The failure to meet the challenges involved in combining the Tristar Business with our current HPC segment and to realize the anticipated benefits from such combination, including expected synergies, could adversely affect our results of operations.

The overall combination of our businesses may also result in material unanticipated problems, expenses, liabilities, competitive responses, and loss of customer and other business relationships. The difficulties of combining the operations of the companies include, among others: diversion of management’s attention to integration matters; difficulties in integrating operations and systems; challenges in conforming standards, controls, procedures and accounting and other policies, business cultures and compensation structures between the two companies; difficulties in integrating employees and attracting and retaining key personnel, challenges in retaining existing, and obtaining new customers, suppliers, employees and others; difficulties in achieving anticipated cost savings, synergies, business opportunities, financing plans and growth prospects from the combination; difficulties in managing the expanded operations of a larger HPC segment; challenges in continuing to develop valuable and widely accepted products; contingent liabilities that are larger than expected; and potential unknown liabilities, adverse consequences and unforeseen increased expenses associated with the acquisition of the Tristar Business.

Even if our combined operations are integrated successfully, the full benefits of the acquisition of the Tristar Business, including anticipated synergies, cost savings or sales or growth opportunities, may not be realized, and these benefits may not be achieved within our anticipated time frame or at all. Further, additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of our businesses. Many of these factors are outside of our control, and any one of them could result in lower revenues, higher costs and diversion of management time and energy, which could materially impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

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

On May 4, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the purchase of up to $1 billion of common stock. The authorization is effective for 36 months. The share repurchase program permits shares to be repurchased in open market or through privately negotiated transactions, including by direct purchases or purchases pursuant to derivative instruments or other transactions (including pursuant to accelerated share repurchase agreements, the writing and settlement of put options and the purchase and exercise of call options). The number of shares to be repurchased, and the timing of any repurchases, will depend on factors such as the share price, economic and market conditions, and corporate and regulatory requirements. The share repurchase program may be suspended, amended or discontinued at any time.
