JARDEN CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data and unless otherwise indicated)

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Jarden Corporation and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the “Company” or “Jarden”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, normal, and recurring and necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 20122013 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s Currentlatest Annual Report on Form 8-K, filed on August 16,10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported net income.

Stock Split

On March 18, 2013, the Company consummated a 3-for-2 stock split in the form of a stock dividend of one additional share of common stock for every two shares of common stock. The Company retained the current par value of $0.01 per share for all common shares. All references to the number of shares outstanding, issued shares, per share amounts and restricted stock and stock option data of the Company’s common shares have been restated to reflect the effect of the stock split for all periods presented in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Stockholders’ equity has been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the stock split by reclassifying from additional paid-in capital to common stock, an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares resulting from the stock split.

Supplemental Information

Stock-based compensation costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), were $5.4$34.9 and $5.6$37.2 for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2014 and 2013, and 2012, respectively, and $49.9 and $30.2 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Interest expense is net of interest income of $1.3$1.4 and $1.7$1.5 for the three months ended September 30, 2013March 31, 2014 and 2012, respectively, and $4.2 and $4.8, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.2013.

Venezuela Operations

The Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are considered under GAAP to be operating in a highly inflationary economy. As such, the Company’s financial statements of its subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are remeasured as if their functional currency were the U.S. dollar and gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities are reflected in current earnings. The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are remeasured at and are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the CENCOEX exchange rate (“official exchange raterate”) of 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar, which is currently the Company’s expected settlement rate.

In 2013, the Venezuelan government established a new auction-based exchange rate market program, the Complementary System for Foreign Currency Administration (“SICAD”). In 2014, the Venezuelan government mandated that dividends and royalties be executed under the SICAD program and also introduced an additional currency exchange program, commonly referred to as SICAD-II. While the Company currently expects to continue to use the official exchange rate for essentially all transactions except dividends and royalties, it is assessing the impact of changes to the currency exchange programs and recently imposed pricing restrictions. If in the future, the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are economically or legally required to convert an increasing amount of the Bolivar cash balances into U.S. dollars using the more unfavorable exchange rates available under SICAD or SICAD-II, it could result in currency exchange losses that may be material to the Company’s results of operations. At March 31, 2014, the exchange rates for SICAD and SICAD-II were 10.70 and 50.85 Bolivars per U.S. dollar, respectively. At March 31, 2014, the Company’s Bolivar-denominated net assets were approximately $130.

On February 8, 2013, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to further devalue its currency (Bolivar)the Bolivar relative to the U.S. dollar. As a result of the devaluation, the official exchange rate changed to 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar for imported goods. As such, beginning in February 2013, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela have been remeasured at and are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the new official exchange rate. During the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2013, the Company recorded $29.0 of devaluation-related charges related to its Venezuela operations, which are almost entirely comprised of a non-cash charge related to the write-down of monetary assets due to the change in the official exchange rate. These charges are included in SG&A.

Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU No. 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the provisionsadoption of ASU 2013-11 todid not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, “Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity” (“ASU 2013-05”). The objective of ASU 2013-05 is to resolve the diversity in practice as it relates to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Accordingly, the provisions of ASU 2013-05 will be applied prospectively to derecognition events occurring after the effective date.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, “Obligations Resulting From Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation is Fixed at the Reporting Date” (“ASU 2013-04”). ASU 2013-04 requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. ASU 2013-04 also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation, as well as other information about those obligations. ASU 2013-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2013-04 to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”). ASU 2013-02 requires new disclosures related to amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) by component, as well as disclosures related to reclassifications from AOCI to net income. These disclosures may be presented on the face of the consolidated financial statements or in the notes thereto. ASU 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 had no effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 enhances disclosures regarding financial instruments and derivative instruments and requires companies to provide both net information and gross information for these assets and liabilities in order to enhance comparability between those companies that prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP and those companies that prepare their financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 had no effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

In October 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to its senior secured credit facility (the “Facility”), which resulted in, among other things, the Company borrowing an additional $750 under a new senior secured term loan B1 facility that matures in September 2020 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 275 basis points. The proceeds were used to fund a portion of the YCC Acquisition.

In March 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to the Facility, which resulted in, among other things, lowering the spread on the term loan A and term loan B facilities and the Company borrowing an additional $250 under the existing senior secured term loan A portion of the Facility that matures in March 2016 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 200 basis points. Additionally, following the amendment, the existing senior secured term loan B portion of the Facility, which matures in March 2018, bears interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 250 basis points. The proceeds were used to fund the repurchase of all of the outstanding principal amount of the Company’s 8% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”).

SeniorSubordinated Notes

On March 14, 2013,During April 2014, the Company commenced a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase anyredeemed the entire principal amount outstanding for both the U.S. dollar tranche and allthe Euro dollar tranche of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes. In March 2013, pursuant to the Tender Offer, the Company repurchased approximately $168 aggregate principal amount of the7 12% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020 for total consideration, excluding accrued interest, of $176. The remaining $132 aggregate principal amount of the Notes was repurchased in May 2013 for total consideration, excluding accrued interest, of $137$523 (the “Redemption”). As a result of these debt extinguishments, the Company expects to record an estimated loss on the extinguishment of debt of approximately $54 during the second quarter of 2014, primarily comprised of prepayment premiums and a non-cash charge due to the write-off of deferred debt issuance costs.

Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes

In June 2013,March 2014, the Company completed a private offering for the sale of $265$690 aggregate principal amount of 1 128% senior subordinated convertible notesConvertible Notes due 20192034 (the “Convertible“2034 Convertible Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and received net proceeds of approximately $259,$674, after deducting fees and expenses. The proceeds were used to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock (see Note 11) and for the Redemption, and the remainder will be used for general corporate purposes. The initial conversion rate is approximately 17.113.36 shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to customary adjustments, including in connection with a fundamental change transaction) per $1 thousand principal amount of the 2034 Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to aan initial conversion price of approximately $58.46$74.86 per share. TheOn or after March 18, 2024, the Company may redeem any or all of the 2034 Convertible Notes, are not subject to certain exceptions and conditions, in cash at a redemption at the Company’s option priorprice equal to the maturity date. Ifprincipal amount of 2034 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The holders of the 2034 Convertible Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of the 2034 Convertible Notes on March 15, 2024 at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2034 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, if the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the 2034 Convertible Notes) prior to maturity, holders of the 2034 Convertible Notes will have the right, at their option, tomay require the Company to repurchase for cash some or all of their 2034 Convertible Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2034 Convertible Notes being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The 2034 Convertible Notes will beare convertible only under the following circumstances:

 

prior to March 1, 2019,December 15, 2033, on any date during any calendar quarter beginning after June 30, 20132014 (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing sale price of our common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion price for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the previous calendar quarter;

 

prior to March 1, 2019,December 15, 2033, if the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its common stock rights, options or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a period of 60 calendar days or less from the declaration date for such distribution, shares of our common stock at a price per share less than the average closing sale price of our common stock for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but excluding, the declaration date for such distribution;

prior to March 1, 2019,December 15, 2033, if the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its common stock cash, other assets, securities or rights to purchase our securities, which distribution has a per share value exceeding 10% of the closing sale price of our common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, or if the Company engageswe engage in certain other corporate transactions;

 

prior to March 1, 2019,December 15, 2033, during the five consecutive business-day period following any ten consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1 thousand principal amount of 2034 Convertible Notes for each trading day during such ten trading-day period was less than 98% of the closing sale price of our common stock for each trading day during such ten trading-day period multiplied by the then current conversion rate;

if the Company calls any 2034 Convertible Notes for redemption; or

 

on or after March 1, 2019,December 15, 2033, and on or prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, without regard to the foregoing conditions.

Upon conversion, holders will receive, at the Company’s discretion, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination thereof. It is the Company’s intent to settle the principal amount and accrued interest on the 2034 Convertible Notes with cash. At the date of issuance, the estimated fair valuevalues of the liability and equity components of the 2034 Convertible Notes was approximately $214$470.8 and $51,$219.2, respectively, resulting in an effective annual interest rate, considering debt issuance costs, of approximately 5.6%5.5%. The amount allocated to the equity component is recorded as a discount to the original aggregate principal amount of the 2034 Convertible Notes.

Securitization Facility

In October 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to its securitization facility that, in part, increased maximum borrowings from $400 to $500 and extended the maturity date until October 2016. Following the amendment, the borrowing rate margin is 0.80% and the unused line fee is 0.40% per annum.

Other

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $25.9 related to the Tender Offer, the Redemption and the Facility amendment inAt March 2013. This loss is primarily comprised of the tender and redemption premiums, the write-off of deferred debt issuance costs and debt discounts and other transaction costs.

At September 30, 201331, 2014 and December 31, 2012,2013, the carrying value of total debt approximates fair market value. The fair market value (Level 1 measurement) of the Senior Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes is based upon quoted market prices. The fair market value (Level 2 measurement) for all other debt instruments is estimated using interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities.

8. Derivative and Other Hedging Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Contracts

The Company manages its fixed and floating rate debt mix using interest rate swaps. The Company uses fixed and floating rate swaps to alter its exposure to the impact of changing interest rates on its consolidated results of operations and future cash outflows for interest. Floating rate swaps are used, depending on market conditions, to convert the fixed rates of long-term debt into short-term variable rates. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce the Company’s risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. Interest rate swap contracts are therefore used by the Company to separate interest rate risk management from the debt funding decision.

Cash Flow Hedges

During 2013, the Company entered into an aggregate $250 notional amount of interest rate swaps that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for an average fixed rate of interest of approximately 1.6% over the term of the agreements, which mature on DecemberAt March 31, 2017. These swaps are forward-starting and are effective commencing December 31, 2015. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest (LIBOR) payments.

At September 30, 2013,2014, the Company had $1.2 billion$850 notional amount outstanding in swap agreements, which include $500 and $250includes $350 notional amount of forward-starting swaps that become effective commencing December 31, 2013 and 2015, respectively, that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for fixed interest rates over the terms of the agreements and are designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest payments and have maturity dates through December 2017.June 2020. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the weighted average fixed rate of interest on these swaps, excluding the forward-starting swaps, was approximately 1.6%1.3%. The effective portion of the after-tax fair value gains or losses on these swaps is included as a component of AOCI.accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate exposure on the cash flows related to forecasted inventory purchases and sales and have maturity dates through June 2015.January 2016. The derivatives used to hedge these forecasted transactions that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gains or losses on these derivatives is deferred as a component of AOCI and is recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item affects earnings and is included in the same caption in the statements of operations as the underlying hedged item. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $500$510 notional amount outstanding of forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted inventory purchases and sales.

The Company also uses foreign currency contracts, which include forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currency options, to mitigate the foreign currency exposure of certain other foreign currency transactions. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $290$287 notional amount outstanding of these foreign currency contracts that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through December 2014.January 2015. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in SG&A.

Commodity Contracts

The Company enters into commodity-based derivatives in order to mitigate the risk that the rising price of these commodities could have on the cost of certain of the Company’s raw materials. These commodity-based derivatives provide the Company with cost certainty, and in certain instances, allow the Company to benefit should the cost of the commodity fall below certain dollar thresholds. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $4$7 notional amount outstanding of commodity-based derivatives that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through MarchDecember 2014. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in cost of sales.

Derivative assets and liabilities relate to interest rate swaps, foreign currency contracts and commodity contracts. Fair values are determined by the Company using market prices obtained from independent brokers or determined using valuation models that use as their basis readily observable market data that is actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including independent pricing services, brokers and market transactions. Available-for-sale securities include inflation protected bonds and are valued based on quoted market prices.

The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligations arising from acquisitions is based upon Level 3 inputs including, in part, the estimate of future cash flows based upon the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations are recorded in SG&A.

Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were as follows:

10. Contingencies

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or a state environmental agency as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the disposition of any of the legal or environmental disputes the Company or its subsidiaries are currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect.

Environmental

The Company’s operations are subject to certain federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations in addition to laws and regulations regarding labeling and packaging of products and the sales of products containing certain environmentally sensitive materials. In addition to ongoing environmental compliance at its operations, the Company also is actively engaged in environmental remediation activities, the majority of which relates to divested operations and sites. Various of the Company’s subsidiaries have been identified by the EPA or a state environmental agency as a PRP pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites (collectively, the “Environmental Sites”). The Company has established reserves to cover the anticipated probable costs of investigation and remediation based upon periodic reviews of all sites for which they have, or may have, remediation responsibility. The Company accrues environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated and their responsibility for the liability is established. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of a formal commitment to an investigation plan, completion of a feasibility study or a commitment to a formal plan of action. The Company accrues its best estimate of investigation and remediation costs based upon facts known at such dates, and because of the inherent difficulties in estimating the ultimate amount of environmental costs, which are further described below, these estimates may materially change in the future as a result of the uncertainties described below. Estimated costs, which are based upon experience with similar sites and technical evaluations, are judgmental in nature and are recorded at discounted amounts without considering the impact of inflation and are adjusted periodically to reflect changes in applicable laws or regulations, changes in available technologies and receipt by the Company of new information. It is difficult to estimate the ultimate level of future environmental expenditures due to a number of uncertainties surrounding environmental liabilities. These uncertainties include the applicability of laws and regulations, changes in environmental remediation requirements, the enactment of additional regulations, uncertainties surrounding remediation procedures including the development of new technology, the identification of new sites for which various of the Company’s subsidiaries could be a PRP, information relating to the exact nature and extent of the contamination at each Environmental Site and the extent of required cleanup efforts, the uncertainties with respect to the ultimate outcome of issues which may be actively contested and the varying costs of alternative remediation strategies.

Due to the uncertainties described above, the Company’s ultimate future liability with respect to sites at which remediation has not been completed may vary from the amounts reserved as of September 30, 2013.March 31, 2014.

The Company believes that the costs of completing environmental remediation of all sites for which the Company has a remediation responsibility have been adequately reserved and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Litigation

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees for defending such actions. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. The Company believes that anticipated probable costs of litigation matters have been adequately reserved to the extent determinable. Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending litigation of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Product Liability

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company and/or its subsidiaries face the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods.

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are therefore party to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to their products and incidental to their business. Annually, the Company sets its product liability insurance program, which is an occurrence- basedoccurrence-based program based on the Company and its subsidiaries’ current and historical claims experience and the availability and cost of insurance. The Company’s product liability insurance program generally includes a self-insurance retention per occurrence.

Cumulative amounts estimated to be payable by the Company with respect to pending and potential claims for all years in which the Company is liable under its self-insurance retention have been accrued as liabilities. Such accrued liabilities are based on estimates (which include actuarial determinations made by an independent actuarial consultant as to liability exposure, taking into account prior experience, number of claims and other relevant factors); thus, the Company’s ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting liability are reviewed on a regular basis and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current operating results.

Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

In September 2013, pursuant to a public offering of its common stock, the Company completed an equity offering of 16.5 million newly-issued shares of common stock at $47.00 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after the payment of underwriting discounts and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $745. The proceeds were used to fund a portion of the YCC Acquisition.

In February 2013,2014, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized an increase in the then available amount under the Company’s existing stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) to allow for the repurchase of up to $500 in the aggregate of the Company’s common stock.

On February 28, 2013, in conjunction with such increase andIn March 2014, pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program, the Company entered into accelerated stock repurchase agreements (collectively,used proceeds from the “ASR Agreement”)2034 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase an aggregate of $250approximately 2.7 million shares of its common stock. Pursuant to the ASR Agreement, the Company paid $250stock for the repurchaseapproximately $163 at a per share price of its common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the ASR was finalized in accordance with its settlement provisions and an additional 0.1 million shares were delivered to the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, approximately 5.6 million shares valued at $250 have been delivered under the ASR Agreement and are included in treasury stock.$60.65 through privately negotiated transactions.

12. Earnings Per Share

The computations of the weighted average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2014 and 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

(1)The three months ended March 31, 2013 excludes 0.8 million potentially dilutive share-based awards as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Because it is the Company’s intention to redeem the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes in cash, the treasury stock method is used for determining potential dilution in the diluted earnings per share computation. For the three months ended September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Senior Subordinated2034 Convertible Notes have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be antidilutive, as the respective initial conversion prices of the Senior Subordinated Convertible Notesprice exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2013.March 31, 2014. As of September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, there were 4.15.3 million restricted share awards with performance-based vesting targets that were not met and as such, have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The Company’s Senior Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes (see Note 7) are fully guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are subject to release only in certain limited circumstances. The Company’s non-United States subsidiaries and those domestic subsidiaries who are not guarantors (“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) are not guaranteeing these notes. Presented below is the condensed consolidating financial data of the Company (“Parent”), the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, using the equity method of accounting for subsidiaries as of September 30, 2013March 31, 2014 and December 31, 20122013 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013March 31, 2014 and 2012. During 2013, certain subsidiaries that were Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries in 2012 became Guarantor Subsidiaries. For comparative purposes, the condensed consolidating financial data as of December 31, 2012 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the aforementioned activity.2013.

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

Forward-Looking Information

From time to time, the Company may make or publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products and similar matters. Such statements are necessarily estimates reflecting management’s best judgment based on current information. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. Such statements are usually identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “planned”, “outlook” and “goal”. Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the Company’s actual results could differ materially. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in forward-looking statements. All statements addressing trends, events, developments, operating performance, potential acquisitions or liquidity that the Company anticipates or expects will occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. Investors should bear this in mind as they consider forward-looking statements.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures the Company makeswe make on related subjects in itsthe Company’s Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K reports tofiled with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20122013 for a list of factors which could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in the Company’s forward-looking statements and certain risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance and results of the Company’s businesses. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Summary of Significant 20132014 Activities

 

On October 3, 2013, the Company acquired Yankee Candle Investments LLC (“Yankee Candle”), a leading specialty-branded premium scented candle company.

On October 3, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to its senior secured credit facility (the “Facility”) which resulted in, among other things, the Company borrowing an additional $750 million (see “Capital Resources”).

In September 2013, pursuant to a public offering of its common stock, the Company completed an equity offering of 16.5 million newly-issued shares of common stock at $47.00 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after the payment of underwriting discounts and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $745 million. The proceeds were used to fund a portion of the acquisition of Yankee Candle.
During April 2014, the Company redeemed the entire principal amount outstanding for both the U.S. dollar tranche and the Euro dollar tranche of the 7 12% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020 for total consideration, excluding accrued interest, of $523 million (the “Redemption”). As a result of these debt extinguishments, the Company expects to record an estimated loss on the extinguishment of debt of approximately $54 million during the second quarter of 2014, primarily comprised of prepayment premiums and a non-cash charge due to the write-off of deferred debt issuance costs.

 

  In June 2013,March 2014, the Company completed a private offering for the sale of $265$690 million aggregate principal amount of 1 128% senior subordinated convertible notes due 20192034 (the “2034 Convertible Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and received net proceeds of approximately $259$674 million, after deducting fees and expenses.

 

OnIn March 18, 2013,2014, pursuant to the Company’s existing stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”), the Company consummated a 3-for-2 stock split inused proceeds from the form2034 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase approximately 2.7 million shares of a stock dividend of one additional share ofits common stock for every two shares of common stock. The Company retained the current par value of $0.01approximately $163 million at a per share for all common shares. All references to the numberprice of shares outstanding, issued shares, per share amounts and restricted stock and stock option data of the Company’s common shares have been restated to reflect the effect of the stock split for all periods presented in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Stockholders’ equity reflects the effect of the stock split by reclassifying from additional paid-in capital to common stock, an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares resulting from the stock split.

In March 2013, the Company commenced a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase any and all of the outstanding principal amount of its 8% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”). In March 2013, pursuant to the Tender Offer, the Company repurchased approximately $168 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes for total consideration, excluding accrued interest, of $176 million. The remaining $132 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes was repurchased on May 1, 2013 for total consideration, excluding accrued interest, of $137 million (the “Redemption”).

In March 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to the Facility, which resulted in, among other things, lowering the spread on the term loan A and term loan B facilities and the Company borrowing an additional $250 million under the existing senior secured term loan A portion of the Facility (see “Capital Resources”).$60.65 through privately negotiated transactions.

 

In February 2013,2014, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized an increase in the then available amount under the Company’s existing stock repurchase program (the “StockStock Repurchase Program”)Program to allow for the repurchase of up to $500 million in the aggregate of the Company’s common stock.

On February 28, 2013, in conjunction with such increase and pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program, the Company entered into accelerated stock repurchase agreements (collectively, the “ASR Agreement”) to repurchase an aggregate of $250 million of its common stock (see “Capital Resources”).

Acquisitions

Consistent with the Company’s historical acquisition strategy, to the extent the Company pursues future acquisitions, the Company intends to focus on businesses with product offerings that provide geographic or product diversification, or expansion into related categories that can be marketed through the Company’s existing distribution channels or provide the Company with new distribution channels for its existing products, thereby increasing marketing and distribution efficiencies. Furthermore, the Company expects that

acquisition candidates would demonstrate a combination of attractive margins, strong cash flow characteristics, category leading positions and products that generate recurring revenue. The Company anticipates that the fragmented nature of the consumer products market will continue to provide opportunities for growth through strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will complete an acquisition in any given year or that any such acquisition will be significant or successful. The Company will only pursue a candidate when it is deemed to be fiscally prudent and meets the Company’s acquisition criteria. The Company anticipates that any future acquisitions would be financed through any combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, availability under its existing credit facilities and new capital market offerings.

2014 Activity

During 2014, the Company did not complete any significant acquisitions.

2013 Activity

On October 3, 2013, the Company acquired Yankee Candle Investments LLC (“Yankee Candle”), a leading specialty-branded premium scented candle company (the “YCC Acquisition”). The total value of the YCC Acquisition, including debt assumed and/or repaid, was approximately $1.8 billion, subject to adjustment. The YCC Acquisition is expected to extend the Company’s portfolio of market-leading, consumer brands in niche, seasonal staple categories, while creating opportunities in cross-selling and broadening the global distribution platform. The YCC Acquisition, which is expected to enhance the Company’s overall margin profile, is consistent with the Company’s disciplined acquisition criteria of purchasing leading, niche consumer-oriented brands with attractive cash flows and strong management.billion. Yankee Candle will beis reported in the Company’s Branded Consumables segment and will bewas included in the Company’s results of operations from October 3, 2013.

DuringVenezuela Operations

Through December 31, 2013, the Venezuelan government had established one official exchange rate for qualifying dividends and imported goods and services. Transactions at the official exchange rate are subject to approval by the Venezuelan government. Historically, the majority of the Company’s purchases have qualified for the official exchange rate and the Company completed one tuck-in acquisitionhas been able to convert Bolivars at the official exchange rate. While the timing of government approval for settlement of payables at the official exchange rate varies, the Company believes these payables will ultimately be approved and settled at the official exchange rate. As such, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are remeasured at and are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the CENCOEX exchange rate (“official exchange rate”) of 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar, which is currently the Company’s expected settlement rate.

In 2013, the Venezuelan government established a new auction-based exchange rate market program, the Complementary System for Foreign Currency Administration (“SICAD”). In 2014, the Venezuelan government mandated that by nature was complementarydividends and royalties be executed under the SICAD program and also introduced an additional currency exchange program, commonly referred to as SICAD-II. While the Company currently expects to continue to use the official exchange rate for essentially all transactions except dividends and royalties, it is assessing the impact of changes to the currency exchange programs and recently imposed pricing restrictions. If in the future, the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela are economically or legally required to convert an increasing amount of the Bolivar cash balances into U.S. dollars using the more unfavorable exchange rates available under SICAD or SICAD-II, it could result in currency exchange losses that may be material to the Company’s core businessesresults of operations. As of March 31, 2014, the exchange rates for SICAD and from an accounting standpoint was not significant.

2012 Activity

During 2012, the Company completed three tuck-in acquisitions that by natureSICAD-II were complementary to10.70 and 50.85 Bolivars per U.S. dollar, respectively. At March 31, 2014, the Company’s core businesses and from an accounting standpointBolivar-denominated net assets were not significant.

Venezuela Operationsapproximately $130 million.

On February 8, 2013, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to further devalue the Bolivar relative to the U.S. dollar. As a result of the devaluation, the official exchange rate changed to 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar for imported goods. As such, beginning in February 2013, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela will beare remeasured, and will beare reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, at the official exchange rate of 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar. The higher official exchange rate will negatively impact the ongoing revenue and operating profit for the Company’s Venezuela operations.rate. During the ninethree months ended September 30,end March 31, 2013, the Company recorded $29.0 million of devaluation-related charges related to its Venezuela operations, which are almost entirely comprised of a non-cash charge related to the write-down of monetary assets due to the change in the official exchange rate. These charges are included in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”).

Translating the results of operations for the Venezuela subsidiaries in 2012 using the 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar official exchange rate versus the actual official exchange rate in effect during 2012 of 4.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar, would have reduced the Company’s 2012 consolidated net sales by less than 1%. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela have approximately $15$1 million in cash denominated in U.S. dollars and cash denominated in Bolivars that is the equivalent of approximately $59$103 million held in Bolivarswhen converted at the official exchange rate. The Bolivar-denominated cash in Venezuela comprises substantially all of the net monetary assets of the Company’s Venezuela operations. There are currency exchange controls in Venezuela which limit the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries in Venezuelan to distribute or transfer U.S. dollars outside Venezuela.

Risk Management

Interest Rate Contracts

The Company manages its fixed and floating rate debt mix using interest rate swaps. The Company uses fixed and floating rate swaps to alter its exposure to the impact of changing interest rates on its consolidated results of operations and future cash outflows for interest. Floating rate swaps are used, depending on market conditions, to convert the fixed rates of long-term debt into short-term variable rates. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce the Company’s risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. Interest rate swap contracts are therefore used by the Company to separate interest rate risk management from the debt funding decision.

Cash Flow Hedges

During 2013, the Company entered into an aggregate $250 million notional amount of interest rate swaps that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for an average fixed rate of interest of approximately 1.6% over the term of the agreements, which mature on DecemberAt March 31, 2017. These swaps are forward-starting and are effective commencing December 31, 2015. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest (LIBOR) payments.

At September 30, 2013,2014, the Company had $1.2 billion$850 million notional amount outstanding in swap agreements, which include $500 million and $250includes $350 million notional amount of forward-starting swaps that will become effective commencing December 31, 2013 and 2015, respectively, that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for fixed interest rates over the terms of the agreements and are designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest payments and have maturity dates through December 2017.June 2020. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the weighted average fixed rate of interest on these swaps, excluding the forward-starting swaps, was approximately 1.6%1.3%. The effective portion of the after-tax fair value gains or losses on these swaps is included as a component of AOCI.accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate exposure on the cash flows related to forecasted inventory purchases and sales and have maturity dates through June 2015.January 2016. The derivatives used to hedge these forecasted transactions that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gains or losses on these derivatives is deferred as a component of AOCI and is recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item affects earnings and is included in the same caption in the statements of operations as the underlying hedged item. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $500$510 million notional amount outstanding of forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted inventory purchases and sales.

The Company also uses foreign currency contracts, which include forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currency options, to mitigate the foreign currency exposure of certain other foreign currency transactions. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $290$287 million notional amount outstanding of these foreign currency contracts that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through December 2014.January 2015. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in SG&A.

Commodity Contracts

The Company enters into commodity-based derivatives in order to mitigate the risk that the rising price of these commodities could have on the cost of certain of the Company’s raw materials. These commodity-based derivatives provide the Company with cost certainty, and in certain instances, allow the Company to benefit should the cost of the commodity fall below certain dollar thresholds. At September 30, 2013,March 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $4$7 million notional amount outstanding of commodity-based derivatives that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through MarchDecember 2014.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Other than as discussed above, there have been no material changes from the information previously reported under Part II, Item 7A. in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.2013.

 

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the Company’s internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there have been no such changes during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report.

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or a state environmental agency as a Potentially Responsible Party pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the disposition of any of the legal or environmental disputes the Company or its subsidiaries are currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect.

Litigation

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees for defending such actions. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. The Company believes that anticipated probable costs of litigation matters have been adequately reserved to the extent determinable. Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending litigation of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Product Liability

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company and/or its subsidiaries face the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods.

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are therefore party to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to their products and incidental to their business. Annually, the Company sets its product liability insurance program, which is an occurrence- based program based on the Company and its subsidiaries’ current and historical claims experience and the availability and cost of insurance. The Company’s product liability insurance program generally includes a self-insurance retention per occurrence.

Cumulative amounts estimated to be payable by the Company with respect to pending and potential claims for all years in which the Company is liable under its self-insurance retention have been accrued as liabilities. Such accrued liabilities are based on estimates (which include actuarial determinations made by an independent actuarial consultant as to liability exposure, taking into account prior experience, number of claims and other relevant factors); thus, the Company’s ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting liability are reviewed on a regular basis and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current operating results.

Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
