Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Business and Basis of Presentation	Business and Basis of Presentation Nature of Business Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company” or “we”, which reference shall, unless the context requires otherwise, be deemed to refer to Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and all of its direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) is engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution of over-the-counter (“OTC”) healthcare and household cleaning products to mass merchandisers and drug, food, dollar, convenience, and club stores in North America (the United States and Canada) and in Australia and certain other international markets. Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. is a holding company with no operations and is also the parent guarantor of the senior credit facility and the senior notes described in Note 10 to these Consolidated Financial Statements. Basis of Presentation Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year ends on March 31st of each year. References in these Consolidated Financial Statements or notes to a year (e.g., “2018”) mean our fiscal year ended on March 31st of that year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed below, our most significant estimates include those made in connection with the valuation of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, fair value of debt, sales returns and allowances, trade promotional allowances and inventory obsolescence, and the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate. Reclassification In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) , we have reclassified cash flows on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows related to excess tax benefits from a financing activity to an operating activity for all periods presented. The impact of the reclassification on our Financial Statements was not material. Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all short-term deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 , approximately 23% of our cash is held by a bank in Sydney, Australia. Substantially all of our remaining cash is held by a large regional bank with headquarters in California. We do not believe that, as a result of this concentration, we are subject to any unusual financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) insures our domestic balances, up to $250,000 and $500,000, with a $250,000 limit for cash, respectively. Substantially all of the Company's cash balances at March 31, 2018 are uninsured. We had non-cash financing activities in 2018 of $0.6 million relating to the March 2018 debt refinancing (see Note 10 for further details). Accounts Receivable We extend non-interest-bearing trade credit to our customers in the ordinary course of business. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon historical collection experience and expected collectability of the accounts receivable. In an effort to reduce credit risk, we (i) have established credit limits for all of our customer relationships, (ii) perform ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitor the payment history and aging of customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitor open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, where cost is determined by using the first-in, first-out method. We reduce inventories for the diminution of value resulting from product obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of estimated net realizable value include (i) current sales data and historical return rates, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii) competitive pricing pressures, (iv) new product introductions, (v) product expiration dates, and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives: Years Building 15 - 40 Machinery 3 - 15 Computer equipment and software 3 - 5 Furniture and fixtures 7 - 10 Leasehold improvements * *Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset is sold or otherwise disposed of, we remove the cost and associated accumulated depreciation from the respective accounts and recognize the resulting gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Goodwill The excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations is classified as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, although the carrying value is tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the product group level, which is one level below the operating segment level. Intangible Assets Intangible assets, which are comprised primarily of tradenames, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets with finite lives, amortization is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, typically ranging from 10 to 30 years. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may exceed their fair values and may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Debt Origination Costs We have incurred debt origination costs in connection with the issuance of long-term debt. These costs are amortized over the term of the related debt, using the effective interest method for our bonds and our term loan facility and the straight-line method for our revolving credit facility. Costs associated with our revolving credit facility are reported as a long-term asset and costs related to our senior notes and the term loan facility are recorded as a reduction of debt. Revenue Recognition Revenues are recognized when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the selling price is fixed or determinable; (iii) the product has been shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risk of loss, and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We have determined that these criteria are met and the transfer of the risk of loss generally occurs when product is received by the customer and, accordingly, we recognize revenue at that time. Provisions are made for estimated discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated product returns at the time of sale based on our historical experience. As is customary in the consumer products industry, we participate in the promotional programs of our customers to enhance the sale of our products. The cost of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units sold during a finite period of time. These promotional programs consist of direct-to-consumer incentives, such as coupons and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to our customers, such as allowances for new distribution, including slotting fees, and cooperative advertising. Estimates of the costs of these promotional programs are based on (i) historical sales experience, (ii) the current promotional offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current market conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing personnel. We recognize the cost of such sales incentives by recording an estimate of such cost as a reduction of revenue, at the later of (a) the date the related revenue is recognized, or (b) the date when a particular sales incentive is offered. At the completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted to actual results. Due to the nature of the consumer products industry, we are required to estimate future product returns. Accordingly, we record an estimate of product returns concurrent with recording sales, which is made after analyzing (i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes in customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of our product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation, packaging and advertising. Cost of Sales Cost of sales includes costs related to the manufacture of our products, including raw materials, direct labor and indirect plant costs (including but not limited to depreciation), warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping costs, and handling and storage costs. Warehousing, shipping and handling and storage costs were $64.7 million for 2018 , $46.2 million for 2017 and $39.2 million for 2016 . Advertising and Promotion Costs Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Allowances for distribution costs associated with products, including slotting fees, are recognized as a reduction of sales. Under these slotting fee distribution arrangements, the retailers allow our products to be placed on the stores’ shelves in exchange for such fees. Stock-based Compensation We recognize stock-based compensation expense by measuring the cost of services to be rendered based on the grant-date fair value of the equity award. Compensation expense is recognized over the period a grantee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, generally referred to as the requisite service period. Pension Expense Certain employees of C.B. Fleet Company, Inc. (" Fleet ") are covered by defined benefit pension plans. The Company’s policy is to contribute at least the minimum amount required under The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The Company may elect to make additional contributions. Benefits are based on years of service and levels of compensation. On December 16, 2014, the decision was made to freeze the benefits under the Company's U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan with an effective date of March 1, 2015. The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets and the level of certain market interest rates. We review pension assumptions regularly and we may from time to time make voluntary contributions to our pension plans that exceed the amounts required by statute. Changes in interest rates and the market value of the securities held by the plans could materially change, positively or negatively, the funded status of the plans and affect the level of pension expense and required contributions in fiscal 2019 and beyond. Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act"). The Tax Act represents significant U.S. federal tax reform legislation that includes a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. The permanent reduction to the federal corporate income tax rate resulted in a one-time gain of $267.0 million related to the value of our deferred tax liabilities and a gain of $3.2 million related to the lower blended tax rate on our current year earnings, resulting in a net gain of $270.2 million . Additionally, the tax reform legislation subjects certain of our cumulative foreign earnings and profits to U.S. income taxes through a deemed repatriation, which resulted in a charge of $1.9 million during 2018 . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Income Taxes topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the various taxing authorities. As a result, we have applied such guidance in determining our tax uncertainties. We are subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. We classify penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed based on income available to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on income available to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, which includes stock options and restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Potential common shares, composed of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and unvested RSUs, are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation to the extent that they are dilutive. In loss periods, the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and RSUs has an antidilutive effect, and therefore these instruments are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share: Year Ended March 31, (In thousands, except per share data) 2018 2017 2016 Numerator Net income $ 339,570 $ 69,395 $ 99,907 Denominator Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average shares outstanding 53,099 52,976 52,754 Dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock units and options issued to employees and directors 427 386 389 Denominator for diluted earnings per share 53,526 53,362 53,143 Earnings per Common Share: Basic net earnings per share $ 6.40 $ 1.31 $ 1.89 Diluted net earnings per share $ 6.34 $ 1.30 $ 1.88 For 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 there were 0.4 million , 0.2 million , and less than 0.1 million shares, respectively, attributable to outstanding stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740) . The amendments in this update reflect the income tax accounting implications of the Tax Act. See "Income Taxes" above for a discussion of the Tax Act that was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and the impact it has had and may have on our business and financial results. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . The amendments in this update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. See "Income Taxes" above for a discussion of the Tax Act that was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and the impact it has had and may have on our business and financial results. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have early adopted ASU 2018-02 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The amendments in this update involve several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the amendments in this update were effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective April 1, 2017, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory . The amendments in this update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards, under which an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. For public business entities, the amendments were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of ASU 2015-11, effective April 1, 2017, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost , which changes the presentation of net periodic benefit cost related to employer sponsored defined benefit plans and other postretirement benefits. Service cost should be included in the same income statement line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period, while other components of net periodic benefit pension cost should be presented separately outside of operating income. Additionally, only service costs may be capitalized in assets. Entities should apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component should be applied prospectively. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this standard will require us to move certain pension costs out of operating income. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) . The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and whether to early adopt this ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. We will adopt this standard as of the beginning of our fiscal 2019, and we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The amendments in this update provide clarification and guidance on eight cash flow classification issues. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt this standard as of the beginning of our fiscal 2019, and we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The amendments in this update include a new FASB ASC Topic 842, which supersedes Topic 840. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of interim or annual reporting periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Topic 606 , including new FASB ASC 606, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in FASB ASC 605. Along with amendments issued in 2015 and 2016, the new guidance will eliminate industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods and services equal to an amount it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods and services. The new standard will also require additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. The new guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance to all contracts existing at the date of initial application (the modified retrospective method). The ASU, as amended, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Our implementation approach included performing a detailed study of the various types of agreements that we have with our customers and assessed conformance of our current accounting practices with the new standard. We will adopt the guidance effective on April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. We are finalizing the accounting policies under the new guidance and determined it may impact the timing of revenue recognition for product sales and the timing of revenue reductions associated with certain customer promotional programs we participate in.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Acquisitions The following acquisitions were accounted for in accordance with Business Combinations topic of the FASB ASC 805, which requires that the total cost of an acquisition be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Acquisition of Fleet On January 26, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Fleet pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 22, 2016, for $823.7 million plus cash on hand at closing and subject to certain adjustments related to net working capital. The purchase price was funded by available cash on hand, additional borrowings under our asset-based revolving credit facility, and a new $740.0 million senior secured incremental term loan under the 2012 Term Loan. As a result of the merger, we acquired women's health, gastrointestinal and dermatological care OTC brands, including Summer’s Eve , Fleet , and Boudreaux's Butt Paste , as well as a “mix and fill” manufacturing facility in Lynchburg, Virginia. The financial results from the Fleet acquisition are included in the Company's North American and International OTC Healthcare segments. We prepared an analysis of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The following table summarizes our allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the January 26, 2017 acquisition date: (In thousands) January 26, 2017 Cash $ 19,884 Accounts receivable 25,293 Inventories 20,812 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 17,024 Property, plant and equipment, net 38,661 Goodwill 273,058 Intangible assets, net 747,600 Other long-term assets 1,137 Total assets acquired 1,143,469 Accounts payable 10,412 Accrued expenses 22,895 Deferred income taxes - long term 261,555 Other long term liabilities 24,884 Total liabilities assumed 319,746 Total purchase price $ 823,723 Based on this analysis, we allocated $648.7 million to non-amortizable intangible assets and $98.9 million to amortizable intangible assets. We recorded goodwill of $273.1 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill is a result of acquiring and retaining workforces and expected synergies from integrating Fleet's operations into the Company's. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes. The following table provides our unaudited pro forma revenues, net income and net income per basic and diluted common share had the results of Fleet's operations been included in our operations commencing on April 1, 2015, based on available information related to Fleet's operations. This pro forma information is not necessarily indicative either of the combined results of operations that actually would have been realized by us had the Fleet acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the period for which the pro forma information is presented, or of future results. Year Ended March 31, 2017 2016 (In thousands, except per share data) (Unaudited) Revenues $ 1,049,473 $ 1,004,698 Net income $ 73,750 $ 92,712 Earnings per share: Basic EPS $ 1.39 $ 1.76 Diluted EPS $ 1.38 $ 1.74 Acquisition of DenTek On February 5, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of DenTek Holdings, Inc. (" DenTek "), a privately-held marketer and distributor of specialty oral care products. The closing was finalized pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, announced November 23, 2015, under which the Company agreed to acquire DenTek from its stockholders for a purchase price of $226.9 million . The acquisition expanded the Company's portfolio of brands, strengthened its existing oral care platform and increased its geographic reach in parts of Europe. The Company financed the transaction with a combination of available cash on hand, available cash from its asset based loan revolver, and financing of an additional unsecured bridge loan. The DenTek brands are included in the Company's North American and International OTC Healthcare segments.

Divestitures and Sale of License Rights	Divestitures and Sale of License Rights Divestitures On July 7, 2016, we completed the sale of the Pediacare®, New Skin® and Fiber Choice® brands for $40.0 million plus the cost of inventory. During the year ended March 31, 2017, we recorded a pre-tax loss on sale of $56.2 million . The proceeds were used to repay debt and related income taxes due on the dispositions. Concurrent with the completion of the sale of these brands, we entered into an option agreement with the buyer to purchase Dermoplast® at a specified earnings multiple as defined in the option agreement. The buyer paid a $1.25 million deposit for this option in September 2016 and later notified us of its election to exercise the option. In December 2016, we completed the sale of the Dermoplast® brand, and in a separate transaction, the e.p.t® brand, for an aggregate amount of $59.6 million . As a result, we recorded a pre-tax net gain on these divestitures of $3.9 million . Sale of license rights Historically, we received royalty income from the licensing of the names of certain of our brands in geographic areas or markets in which we do not directly compete. We have had royalty agreements for our Comet brand for several years, which included options on behalf of the licensee to purchase license rights in certain geographic areas and markets in perpetuity. In December 2014, we amended these agreements, and we sold rights to use of the Comet brand in certain Eastern European countries to a third-party licensee in exchange for $10.0 million as a partial early buyout of the license. The amended agreement provided that we would continue to receive royalty payments of $1.0 million per quarter for the remaining geographic areas and also granted the licensee an option to acquire the license rights in the remaining geographic areas any time after June 30, 2016. In July 2016, the licensee elected to exercise its option. In August 2016, we received $11.0 million for the purchase of the remaining license rights and, as a result, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $1.2 million and reduced our indefinite-lived tradenames by $9.0 million . Furthermore, the licensee was no longer required to make additional royalty payments to us, and as a result, our royalty income was reduced accordingly.

As further discussed in Note 8, in December 2014, we completed a transaction to sell rights to use of the Comet brand in certain Eastern European countries to a third-party licensee. As a result, we recorded a gain on the sale of $1.3 million and reduced the carrying value of our intangible assets and goodwill. In August 2016, we sold the remaining rights to the use of the Comet brand in certain geographic areas and reduced goodwill by $0.6 million as a result. As discussed in Note 2, on February 5, 2016, we completed the acquisition of DenTek . In connection with this acquisition, we recorded goodwill of $73.7 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of net assets acquired. In December 2016, we received $1.4 million as a result of an arbitration associated with the DenTek acquisition. As a result, we reduced goodwill by $2.8 million , including other post-closing adjustments of $1.4 million . As discussed in Note 2, on January 26, 2017, we completed the acquisition of Fleet . In connection with this acquisition, we recorded goodwill of $273.1 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired. On July 7, 2016, we completed the sale of Pediacare®, New Skin® and Fiber Choice® (see Note 3 above for further details) for $40.0 million plus the cost of inventory and reduced goodwill by $2.9 million as a result. In addition, as discussed in Note 3, in connection with this sale, the buyer exercised its option to purchase the Dermoplast® brand. The sale of Dermoplast® was completed on December 30, 2016 and, as a result, we reduced goodwill by $5.5 million . On December 28, 2016, we completed the sale of the e.p.t® brand and, as a result, we reduced goodwill by $1.4 million . Under accounting guidelines, goodwill is not amortized, but must be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below the carrying amount. At February 28, 2018 and February 29, 2017 , in conjunction with the annual test for goodwill impairment, there were no indicators of impairment under the analysis. Accordingly, no impairment charge was recorded in 2018 or 2017 . We identify our reporting units in accordance with the FASB ASC Subtopic 280. The carrying value and fair value for intangible assets and goodwill for a reporting unit are calculated based on key assumptions and valuation methodologies previously discussed. The discounted cash flow methodology is a widely-accepted valuation technique utilized by market participants in the transaction evaluation process and has been applied consistently. We also considered our market capitalization at February 28, 2018 and February 29, 2017 , as compared to the aggregate fair values of our reporting units, to assess the reasonableness of our estimates pursuant to the discounted cash flow methodology. The estimates and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of our reporting units and the valuation of the underlying assets and liabilities are inherently subject to significant uncertainties. Consequently, changing rates of interest and inflation, declining sales or margins, increases in competition, changing consumer preferences, technical advances, or reductions in advertising and promotion may require an impairment charge to be recorded in the future. As a result of our analysis at February 28, 2018, all reporting units tested had a fair value that exceeded their carrying value by at least 19% .

In connection with this acquisition, we allocated $206.7 million to intangible assets based on our analysis. As discussed in Note 2, on January 26, 2017, we completed the acquisition of Fleet . In connection with this acquisition, we allocated $747.6 million to intangible assets based on our analysis. On July 7, 2016, we completed the sale of the Pediacare®, New Skin® and Fiber Choice® (see Note 3 above for further details) brands for $40.0 million plus the cost of inventory and received $40.1 million , and reduced our indefinite and finite-lived tradenames by $37.2 million and $54.0 million , respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2017, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $56.2 million on the sale of these brands. In addition, as discussed in Note 3, in connection with this sale, the buyer exercised its option to purchase the Dermoplast® brand. The sale of Dermoplast® was completed on December 30, 2016, and we received $48.4 million . As a result, we reduced intangible assets by $31.0 million . Historically, we received royalty income from the licensing of the names of certain of our brands in geographic areas or markets in which we do not directly compete. We have had royalty agreements for our Comet brand for several years, which included options on behalf of the licensee to purchase license rights in certain geographic areas and markets in perpetuity. In December 2014, we amended these agreements and we sold rights to use of the Comet brand in certain Eastern European countries to a third-party licensee in exchange for $10.0 million as a partial early buyout of the license. The amended agreement provided that we would continue to receive royalty payments of $1.0 million per quarter for the remaining geographic areas and also granted the licensee an option to acquire the license rights in the remaining geographic areas any time after June 30, 2016. In July 2016, the licensee elected to exercise its option. In August 2016, we received $11.0 million for the purchase of the remaining license rights and, as a result, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $1.2 million and reduced our indefinite-lived tradenames by $9.0 million . Furthermore, the licensee is no longer required to make additional royalty payments to us, and as a result, our royalty income was reduced accordingly. In December 2016, we also completed the sale of the e.p.t brand and, as a result, we reduced intangible assets by $14.8 million . Under accounting guidelines, indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but must be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below the carrying amount. Additionally, at each reporting period, an evaluation must be made to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and are also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable and exceeds its fair value. During the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, we perform our annual impairment analysis. We utilized the excess earnings method to estimate the fair value of our individual indefinite-lived intangible assets. The discount rate utilized in the analyses, as well as future cash flows, may be influenced by such factors as changes in interest rates and rates of inflation. Additionally, should the related fair values of intangible assets be adversely affected as a result of declining sales or margins caused by competition, changing consumer preferences, technological advances or reductions in advertising and promotional expenses, we may be required to record impairment charges in the future. As a result of our analysis at February 28, 2018, two of our indefinite-lived intangible assets, Beano and Comet, did not exceed the carrying values and as such, impairment charges of $28.6 million and $70.7 million , respectively, were recorded in 2018 relating to these two tradenames, bringing Beano ’s indefinite-lived tradename carrying value to $49.8 million and Comet ’s indefinite-lived tradename carrying value to $30.6 million . In addition, we recorded an impairment charge on our Massengill finite-lived intangible tradename of $0.6 million bringing its carrying value to zero. The impairment charges were the result of our reassessment of the long-term sales projections for these brands during our annual planning cycle. In addition, we performed a sensitivity analysis of our weighted average cost of capital and we determined that a 50 basis point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have resulted in an additional impairment of Beano and Comet totaling $4.2 million . Additionally, a 50 basis point decrease in the terminal growth rate used for each of the Beano and Comet tradenames would have resulted in an additional impairment of $2.3 million . Beano and Massengill are part of our North American OTC Healthcare segment and Comet is part of our Household Cleaning segment . The weighted average remaining life for finite-lived intangible assets at March 31, 2018 was approximately 12.5 years , and the amortization expense for the year ended March 31, 2018 was $ 23.3 million. At March 31, 2018 , finite-lived intangible assets are expected to be amortized over their estimated useful life, which ranges from a period of 10 to 30 years , and the estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years and periods thereafter is as follows (in thousands): (In thousands) Year Ending March 31, Amount 2019 23,234 2020 23,234 2021 22,812 2022 22,389 2023 22,389 Thereafter 176,555 $ 290,613

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Long-Term Debt	Long-Term Debt 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver: On January 31, 2012, the Borrower entered into a senior secured credit facility, which consists of (i) a $660.0 million term loan facility (the “2012 Term Loan”) with a 7 -year maturity and (ii) a $50.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “2012 ABL Revolver”) with a 5 -year maturity. In subsequent years, we have utilized portions of our accordion feature to increase the amount of our borrowing capacity under the 2012 ABL Revolver by $85.0 million to $135.0 million and reduced our borrowing rate on the 2012 ABL Revolver by 0.25% (discussed below). The 2012 Term Loan was issued with an original issue discount of 1.5% of the principal amount thereof, resulting in net proceeds to the Borrower of $650.1 million . The 2012 Term Loan is unconditionally guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its domestic 100% owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company. On February 21, 2013, we entered into Amendment No. 1 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 1") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 1 provided for the refinancing of all of the Borrower's existing Term B Loans with new Term B-1 Loans (the "Term B-1 Loans"). The interest rate on the Term B-1 Loans under Term Loan Amendment No. 1 was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.75% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% , or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00% , plus a margin. In addition, Term Loan Amendment No. 1 provided the Borrower with certain additional capacity to prepay subordinated debt, the 2012 Senior Notes and certain other unsecured indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver. On September 3, 2014, we entered into Amendment No. 2 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 2") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 2 provided for (i) the creation of a new class of Term B-2 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-2 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $720.0 million , (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief, and (iii) an interest rate on (x) the Term B-1 Loans that was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 3.125% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% , or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00% , plus a margin, and (y) the Term B-2 Loans that was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 3.50% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% , or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00% , plus a margin (with a margin step-down to 3.25% per annum, based upon achievement of a specified secured net leverage ratio). Also on September 3, 2014, we entered into Amendment No. 3 ("ABL Amendment No. 3") to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 3 provided for (i) a $40.0 million increase in revolving commitments under the 2012 ABL Revolver and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility. Borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver, as amended, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin, plus, at our option, either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% , (b) the prime rate of Citibank, N.A., and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month, adjusted for certain additional costs, plus 1.00% or (ii) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs. The applicable margin for borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver may be increased to 2.00% or 2.25% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.00% or 1.25% for base-rate borrowings, depending on average excess availability under the 2012 ABL Revolver during the prior fiscal quarter. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the 2012 ABL Revolver, we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the 2012 ABL Revolver in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder. The initial commitment fee rate is 0.50% per annum. The commitment fee rate will be reduced to 0.375% per annum at any time when the average daily unused commitments for the prior quarter is less than a percentage of total commitments by an amount set forth in the credit agreement covering the 2012 ABL Revolver. We may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the 2012 ABL Revolver at any time without a premium or penalty. On May 8, 2015, we entered into Amendment No. 3 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 3") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 3 provided for (i) the creation of a new class of Term B-3 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-3 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $852.5 million , which combined the outstanding balances of the Term B-1 Loans of $207.5 million and the Term B-2 Loans of $645.0 million , and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief. The maturity date of the Term B-3 Loans remained the same as the Term B-2 Loans' original maturity date of September 3, 2021. On June 9, 2015, we entered into Amendment No. 4 (“ABL Amendment No. 4”) to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 4 provided for (i) a $35.0 million increase in the accordion feature under the 2012 ABL Revolver and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief and (iii) extended the maturity date of the 2012 ABL Revolver to June 9, 2020, which is five years from the effective date of ABL Amendment No. 4. In connection with the DenTek acquisition on February 5, 2016, we entered into Amendment No. 5 (“ABL Amendment No. 5”) to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 5 temporarily suspended certain financial and related reporting covenants in the 2012 ABL Revolver until the earliest of (i) the date that was 60 calendar days following February 4, 2016, (ii) the date upon which certain of DenTek’s assets were included in the Company’s borrowing base under the 2012 ABL Revolver and (iii) the date upon which the Company received net proceeds from an offering of debt securities. In connection with the Fleet acquisition, on January 26, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 4 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 4") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 4 provided for (i) the refinancing of all of our outstanding term loans and the creation of a new class of Term B-4 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-4 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $1,427.0 million and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief. In addition, Citibank, N.A. was succeeded by Barclays Bank PLC as administrative agent under the 2012 Term Loan. Also on January 26, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 6 ("ABL Amendment No. 6") to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 6 provides for (i) a $40.0 million increase in revolving commitments under the 2012 ABL Revolver, (ii) an extension of the maturity date of revolving commitments to January 26, 2022, and (iii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility consistent with Term Loan Amendment No. 4. We may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the 2012 ABL Revolver at any time without a premium or penalty. On March 21, 2018, we entered into Amendment No. 5 (“Term Loan Amendment No. 5”) to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 5 ("Term B-5 Loans") provided for the repricing of the Term B-4 Loans under the Credit Agreement to an interest rate that is based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.00% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 0.00% , or an alternative base rate plus a margin of 1.00% per annum with a floor of 1.00% . For the year ended March 31, 2018 , the average interest rate on the 2012 Term Loan was 4.5% . For the year ended March 31, 2018 , the average interest rate on the amounts borrowed under the 2012 ABL Revolver was 2.7% . 2013 Senior Notes: On December 17, 2013, the Borrower issued $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes, with an interest rate of 5.375% and a maturity date of December 15, 2021 (the "2013 Senior Notes"). The Borrower may redeem some or all of the 2013 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes. The 2013 Senior Notes are guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its 100% domestic owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company. 2016 Senior Notes: On February 19, 2016, the Borrower completed the sale of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior notes due March 1, 2024 (the “Initial Notes”), pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated February 16, 2016, among the Borrower, the guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”) and the initial purchasers party thereto. The 2016 Senior Notes are guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its domestic 100% owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the Guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company. The 2016 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated February 19, 2016 (the “Indenture”). The Indenture provides, among other things, that interest will be payable on the 2016 Senior Notes on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2016, until their maturity date of March 1, 2024. The 2016 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Borrower. On March 21, 2018, we completed the sale of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior notes due 2024 (the “Additional Notes”), at an issue price of 101.0% , pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated March 16, 2018, among Prestige Brands, the guarantors party thereto and the initial purchasers party thereto. The Additional Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Prestige Brands and are guaranteed by each of Prestige Brands’ domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its obligations under the 2012 Term Loan. We used the proceeds from the issuance of the Additional Notes to repay a portion of our outstanding obligations under the 2012 Term Loan and to pay related fees and expenses. The Additional Notes will be treated as a single series with the $350.0 million aggregate principle amount of Initial Notes (the Initial Notes and, together with the Additional Notes, the “2016 Senior Notes”). Redemptions and Restrictions: On or after December 15, 2016, we have had the option to redeem some or all of the 2013 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes. In addition, at any time prior to December 15, 2016, we had the option to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 105.375% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings, provided that certain conditions were met. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes), the Borrower will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2013 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Senior Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2016 Senior Notes at any time on or after March 1, 2019 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We may also redeem all or any portion of the 2016 Senior Notes at any time prior to March 1, 2019, at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of notes redeemed, plus a "make-whole premium" calculated as set forth in the Indenture and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, before March 1, 2019, we may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Senior Notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings, at the redemption price set forth in the Indenture, provided that certain conditions are met. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), we will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2016 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. The indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes contain provisions that restrict us from undertaking specified corporate actions, such as asset dispositions, acquisitions, dividend payments, repurchases of common shares outstanding, changes of control, incurrences of indebtedness, issuance of equity, creation of liens, making of loans and transactions with affiliates. Additionally, the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions, whereby a default pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain indebtedness will cause a default on the remaining indebtedness under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes. At March 31, 2018 , we were in compliance with the covenants under our long-term indebtedness.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short maturity of these amounts. The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of the FASB ASC 820 requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market assuming an orderly transaction between market participants. The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic established market (observable inputs) as the preferred source of fair value, to be followed by the Company's assumptions of fair value based on hypothetical transactions (unobservable inputs) in the absence of observable market inputs. Based upon the above, the following fair value hierarchy was created: Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, as well as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not considered active; and Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed by the Company using estimates and assumptions reflective of those that would be utilized by a market participant. The market values have been determined based on market values for similar instruments adjusted for certain factors. As such, the 2016 Senior Notes, the 2013 Senior Notes, the Term B-5 Loans, and the 2012 ABL Revolver are measured in Level 2 of the above hierarchy (see summary below detailing the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these borrowings at March 31, 2018 and 2017 ). March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 (In thousands) Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value 2016 Senior Notes $ 600,000 $ 610,500 $ 350,000 $ 367,500 2013 Senior Notes 400,000 402,000 400,000 409,000 2012 Term B-5 Loans 938,000 939,173 1,382,000 1,395,820 2012 ABL Revolver 75,000 75,000 90,000 90,000 At March 31, 2018 and 2017 , we did not have any assets or liabilities measured in Level 1 or 3. During 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Levels 1, 2 and 3. In accordance with ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) , investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value ("NAV") per share as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.

Each share of common stock has the right to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the Board of Directors, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of stock outstanding having priority rights as to dividends. No dividends have been declared or paid on the Company's common stock through March 31, 2018 . Pursuant to the provisions of various employee restricted stock awards, we repurchased 20,549 shares and 25,768 shares of restricted common stock from our employees during the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The repurchases during the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were at an average price of $52.33 and $55.51 , respectively. All of the repurchased shares have been recorded as treasury stock.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation In connection with our initial public offering, the Board of Directors adopted the 2005 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which provides for grants of up to a maximum of 5.0 million shares of restricted stock, stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and other equity-based awards. In June 2014, the Board of Directors approved, and in July 2014, the stockholders ratified, an increase of an additional 1.8 million shares of our common stock for issuance under the Plan, an increase of the maximum number of shares subject to stock options that may be awarded to any one participant under the Plan during any fiscal 12-month period from 1.0 million to 2.5 million shares, and an extension of the term of the Plan by ten years, to February 2025. Directors, officers and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for the Company, are eligible for grants under the Plan. During 2018 , pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income and the related income tax benefit recognized were $8.9 million and $1.8 million , respectively. During 2017 , pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income and the related income tax benefit recognized were $8.1 million and $2.6 million , respectively. During 2016 , pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income and the related income tax benefit recognized were $10.0 million and $3.5 million , respectively. At March 31, 2018 , there were $8.2 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan, based on management’s estimate of the shares that will ultimately vest. We expect to recognize such costs over a weighted-average period of 0.8 years. The total fair value of options and restricted shares vested during 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 was $6.8 million , $6.0 million and $7.0 million , respectively. Cash received from the exercise of stock options was $1.6 million during 2018 , and we realized $1.1 million in tax benefits for the tax deductions resulting from RSU issuances and option exercises in 2018 . Cash received from the exercise of stock options was $4.0 million during 2017 , and we realized $2.0 million in tax benefits for the tax deductions resulting from RSU issuances and option exercises in 2017 . Cash received from the exercise of stock options was $6.7 million during 2016 , and we realized $3.6 million in tax benefits for the tax deductions from RSU issuances and option exercises in 2016 . At March 31, 2018 , there were 2.2 million shares available for issuance under the Plan. On May 8, 2017, the Compensation and Talent Management Committee of our Board of Directors granted 35,593 performance units, 54,773 RSUs and stock options to acquire 182,823 shares of our common stock to certain executive officers and employees under the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, each of the independent members of the Board of Directors received a grant of 2,564 RSUs on August 1, 2017. The RSUs are fully vested upon receipt of the award and will be settled by delivery to the director of one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of the director's (i) death, (ii) disability or (iii) the six -month anniversary of the date on which the director's Board membership ceases for reasons other than death or disability. Restricted Stock Units Restricted stock units granted to employees under the Plan generally vest in three years, primarily upon the attainment of certain time vesting thresholds, and, in the case of performance share units, may also be contingent on the attainment of certain performance goals of the Company, including revenue and earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization targets. The RSUs provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control, as defined in the Plan. The RSUs granted to employees generally vest either ratably over three years or in their entirety on the three -year anniversary of the date of the grant. Upon vesting, the units will be settled in shares of our common stock. Termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the RSUs, unless otherwise accelerated by the Compensation and Talent Management Committee or, in the case of RSUs granted in May 2017, subject to pro-rata vesting in the event of death, disability or retirement. The RSUs granted to directors vest immediately upon grant, and will be settled by delivery to the director of one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of the director's (i) death, (ii) disability or (iii) six -month anniversary of the date on which the director's Board membership ceases for reasons other than death or disability. The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant. A summary of the Company’s RSUs granted under the Plan is presented below: RSUs Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value Vested and nonvested at March 31, 2015 362.3 $ 22.74 Granted 266.1 42.41 Vested and issued (155.6 ) 18.31 Forfeited (5.0 ) 39.61 Vested and nonvested at March 31, 2016 467.8 35.22 Vested at March 31, 2016 69.8 14.76 Granted 68.4 55.44 Vested and issued (94.7 ) 28.51 Forfeited (91.4 ) 41.71 Vested and nonvested at March 31, 2017 350.1 39.29 Vested at March 31, 2017 63.4 20.12 Granted 105.8 55.61 Vested and issued (53.3 ) 34.30 Forfeited (9.1 ) 48.76 Vested and nonvested at March 31, 2018 393.5 44.13 Vested at March 31, 2018 90.5 29.88 Options The Plan provides that the exercise price of options granted shall be no less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date the options are granted. Options granted have a term of no greater than ten years from the date of grant and vest in accordance with a schedule determined at the time the option is granted, generally three to five years . The option awards provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control, as defined in the Plan. Except in the case of death, disability or retirement, termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the unvested stock options. Vested stock options will remain exercisable by the employee after termination of employment, subject to the terms in the Plan. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock and other factors, including the historical volatilities of comparable companies. We use appropriate historical data, as well as current data, to estimate option exercise and employee termination behaviors. Employees that are expected to exhibit similar exercise or termination behaviors are grouped together for the purposes of valuation. The expected terms of the options granted are derived from our historical experience, management’s estimates, and consideration of information derived from the public filings of companies similar to us, and represent the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate represents the yield on U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the expected term of the granted options. The weighted-average grant-date fair values of the options granted during 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 were $21.20 , $21.75 , and $17.24 , respectively.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Employee Retirement Plans	Employee Retirement Plans We have a defined contribution plan in which all U.S. full-time employees (excluding those employees of the recently acquired Fleet business discussed below) are eligible to participate. The participants may contribute from 1% to 70% of their compensation, as defined in the plan. We match 100% of the first 3% , plus 50% of the next 3% of each participant's base compensation with full vesting immediately. We may also make additional contributions to the plan as determined by the Board of Directors. The total expense for the defined contribution plan was less than $0.1 million for 2018 . In conjunction with the acquisition of Fleet (see Note 2), we assumed a number of additional employee retirement plans including a defined contribution plan and two defined benefit plans. All U.S. full-time employees of Fleet are eligible to participate in Fleet's defined contribution plan. The participants may contribute from 2% to 50% of their compensation, as defined in the plan. We match 100% of the first 6% of each participant's base compensation with full vesting upon entering the plan. The Company's contribution is reduced by the amount of forfeitures that occur during the year. We may also make additional contributions to the plan as determined by the Board of Directors. The total expense for the defined contribution plan was $0.8 million for 2018 . Certain employees of Fleet are covered by defined benefit pension plans. The Company’s policy is to contribute at least the minimum amount required under ERISA. The Company may elect to make additional contributions. Benefits are based on years of service and levels of compensation. On December 16, 2014, the decision was made to freeze the benefits under the Company's U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan with an effective date of March 1, 2015. Benefit Obligations and Plan Assets The following table summarizes the changes in the U.S. pension plan obligations and plan assets from the date of acquisition to the end of our fiscal year, and includes a statement of the plans' funded status as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 : Period Ended (In thousands) March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 Change in benefit obligation: Projected benefit obligation at beginning of period $ 61,714 $ 61,187 Interest cost 2,529 456 Actuarial loss 800 791 Benefits paid (3,161 ) (720 ) Projected benefit obligations at end of year $ 61,882 $ 61,714 Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets at beginning of period $ 47,772 $ 41,560 Actual return on plan assets 5,505 854 Employer contribution 392 6,078 Benefits paid (3,161 ) (720 ) Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ 50,508 $ 47,772 Funded status at end of year $ (11,374 ) $ (13,942 ) Amounts recognized in the balance sheet at the end of the period consist of the following: Period Ended (In thousands) March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 Current liability $ 461 463 Long-term liability 10,913 13,479 Total $ 11,374 $ 13,942 The primary components of Net Periodic Benefits consist of the following: Period Ended (In thousands) March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 Interest cost $ 2,529 $ 456 Expected return on assets (2,901 ) (462 ) Net periodic benefit cost (income) $ (372 ) $ (6 ) The accumulated benefit obligation, which represents benefits earned to the measurement date, was $61.9 million at March 31, 2018 , and $61.7 million at March 31, 2017 and we had a net periodic benefit (income) of less than $1.0 million for 2018 and 2017 . The pension benefit amounts stated above include one pension plan that is an unfunded plan. The projected benefit obligation and accumulated benefit obligation for this unfunded plan were $5.9 million as of March 31, 2018 and $6.0 million as of March 31, 2017 . The following table includes amounts that are expected to be contributed to the plans by the Company. It reflects benefit payments that are made from the plans' assets as well as those made directly from the Company's assets and includes the participants' share of the cost, which is funded by participant contributions. The amounts in the table are actuarially determined and reflect the Company's best estimate given its current knowledge; actual amounts could be materially different.

During 2017 , we funded $6.0 million to the plan, which was invested as described in the plan assets below. The Company's primary investment objective for its qualified pension plan assets is to provide a source of retirement income for the plans' participants and beneficiaries. The asset allocation for the Company's funded retirement plan as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 , and the target allocation by asset category are as follows: Percentage of Plan Assets Asset Category Target Allocation March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 Domestic large cap equities 21 % 21 % 41 % Domestic small/mid cap equities 6 6 7 International equities 18 18 16 Balanced/asset allocation — — 2 Fixed income and cash 55 55 34 Total 100 % 100 % 100 % The plan assets are invested in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of domestic fixed income and publicly traded equity securities held within group trust funds at March 31, 2018 and pooled separate mutual funds at March 31, 2017 . These assets are fair valued using NAV. The following tables show the unrecognized actuarial loss (gain) included in accumulated other comprehensive income at March 31, 2018 and 2017 , as well as the prior service cost credit and actuarial loss expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retirement expense during 2019 : (In thousands) Balances in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of March 31, 2017: Unrecognized actuarial loss $ 399 Unrecognized prior service credit — Balances in accumulated other comprehensive (income) as of March 31, 2018: Unrecognized actuarial (gain) $ (1,407 ) Unrecognized prior service credit — Amounts expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during 2019: Unrecognized actuarial (loss) $ — Unrecognized prior service credit — Assumptions used in determining the actuarial present value of the benefit obligation as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows: Period Ended March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017 Key assumptions: Discount rate 3.93% to 4.07% 3.92% to 4.21% Expected return on plan assets, net of administrative fees 6.25% 6.25% Rate of compensation increase — — The determination of the expected long-term rate of return was derived from an optimized portfolio using an asset allocation software program. The risk and return assumptions, along with the correlations between the asset classes, were entered into the program. Based on these assumptions and historical experience, the portfolio is expected to achieve a long-term rate of return of 6.25% . The investment managers engaged to manage the portfolio are expected to outperform their expected benchmarks on a relative basis over a full market cycle.

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act"). The Tax Act represents significant U.S. federal tax reform legislation that includes a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. The permanent reduction to the federal corporate income tax rate resulted in a one-time gain of $267.0 million related to the value of our deferred tax liabilities and a gain of $3.2 million related to the lower blended tax rate on our current year earnings, resulting in a net gain of $270.2 million . Additionally, the tax reform legislation subjects certain of our cumulative foreign earnings and profits to U.S. income taxes through a deemed repatriation, which resulted in a charge of $1.9 million during 2018 . The changes included in the Tax Act are broad and complex. The final transition impacts of the Tax Act may differ from the above estimate, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations of the Tax Act, any legislative action to address questions that arise because of the Tax Act, any changes in accounting standards for income taxes or related interpretations in response to the Tax Act, or any updates or changes to estimates the Company has utilized to calculate the transition impacts, including impacts from changes to current year earnings estimates and foreign exchange rates of foreign subsidiaries. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has issued rules that would allow for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. We currently anticipate finalizing and recording any resulting adjustments by the end of the measurement period. Income before income taxes consists of the following: Year Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2018 2017 2016 United States $ 84,435 $ 93,582 $ 142,253 Foreign 22,651 17,268 14,932 $ 107,086 $ 110,850 $ 157,185 The provision for income taxes consists of the following: Year Ended March 31, (In thousands) 2018 2017 2016 Current Federal $ 31,327 $ 40,183 $ 6,080 State 2,686 2,808 1,171 Foreign 5,588 4,242 3,905 Deferred Federal (270,796 ) (5,421 ) 44,787 State (1,240 ) (163 ) 1,678 Foreign (49 ) (194 ) (343 ) Total (benefit) provision for income taxes $ (232,484 ) $ 41,455 $ 57,278 The principal components of our deferred tax balances are as follows: March 31, (In thousands) 2018 2017 Deferred Tax Assets Allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns $ 2,806 $ 5,280 Inventory capitalization 1,176 1,881 Inventory reserves 540 1,880 Net operating loss carryforwards 609 609 State income taxes 10,154 17,727 Accrued liabilities 2,210 2,174 Accrued compensation 4,992 9,574 Stock compensation 5,038 5,790 Other 4,975 7,925 Total deferred tax assets $ 32,500 $ 52,840 Deferred Tax Liabilities Property, plant and equipment $ (6,032 ) $ (9,157 ) Intangible assets (467,388 ) (754,322 ) Total deferred tax liabilities $ (473,420 ) $ (763,479 ) Net deferred tax liability before valuation allowance $ (440,920 ) $ (710,639 ) Valuation allowance (609 ) (3,437 ) Net deferred tax liability $ (441,529 ) $ (714,076 ) The net deferred tax liability shown above is net of $1.0 million of long-term deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2018 and $1.0 million of long-term deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2017 . At March 31, 2018 and 2017 , we have a valuation allowance of $0.6 million and $3.4 million , respectively, related to certain deferred tax assets acquired from Fleet that we have concluded are not more likely than not to be realized. The decrease in the valuation allowance related to the reclassification of $2.8 million into our uncertain tax liability. A reconciliation of the effective tax rate compared to the statutory U.S. Federal tax rate is as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2018 2017 2016 (In thousands) % % % Income tax provision at statutory rate $ 37,480 35.0 $ 38,798 35.0 $ 55,015 35.0 Foreign tax benefit (2,084 ) (1.9 ) (2,322 ) (2.1 ) (2,894 ) (1.8 ) State income taxes, net of federal income tax benefit 1,414 1.3 1,820 1.7 3,284 2.0 Impact of tax legislation (268,244 ) (250.5 ) — — — — Goodwill adjustment for sale of asset — — 3,208 2.9 — — Nondeductible transaction costs — — 686 0.6 1,071 0.7 Nondeductible compensation — — 342 0.3 758 0.5 Other (1,050 ) (1.0 ) (1,077 ) (1.0 ) 44 — Total (benefit) provision for income taxes $ (232,484 ) (217.1 ) $ 41,455 37.4 $ 57,278 36.4 Uncertain tax liability activity is as follows: 2018 2017 2016 (In thousands) Balance – beginning of year $ 3,651 $ 4,084 $ 3,420 Additions based on tax positions related to the current year 7,286 583 664 Reductions based on lapse of statute of limitations (110 ) (1,016 ) — Balance – end of year $ 10,827 $ 3,651 $ 4,084 We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. We did not incur any material interest or penalties related to income taxes in 2016 , 2017 or 2018 . The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 was $10.8 million , $3.7 million , and $4.1 million , respectively, which would reduce the effective tax rate by 10.1% , 3.3% , and 2.6% , respectively, if recognized. We do not anticipate any events or circumstances that would cause a significant change to these uncertainties during the ensuing year. We are subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions, and we are generally open to examination from the year ended March 31, 2015 forward. Pursuant to The Tax Act, we recognized a tax liability on any unrepatriated foreign earnings generated through December 31, 2017. Any future foreign earnings may be eligible for the dividends received deduction. As a result, the Company no longer maintains an assertion that any of its foreign earnings are indefinitely reinvested. Consequently, the Company has recorded the U.S. and local country tax effects of repatriating any unremitted foreign earnings.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies We are involved from time to time in routine legal matters and other claims incidental to our business. We review outstanding claims and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess probability and amount of potential loss. These assessments are re-evaluated at each reporting period and as new information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost of resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different than the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible under GAAP to establish a litigation reserve until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be insufficient time to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case of a quickly negotiated settlement). We believe the resolution of routine legal matters and other claims incidental to our business, taking our reserves into account, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Lease Commitments We have operating leases for office facilities and equipment, including New York and other locations, which expire at various dates through fiscal 2028. These amounts have been included in the table below.

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]
Concentrations of Risk	Concentrations of Risk Our revenues are concentrated in the areas of OTC Healthcare and Household Cleaning products. We sell our products to mass merchandisers and drug, food, dollar, convenience, and club stores. During 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , approximately 41.2% , 40.0% , and 41.9% , respectively, of our gross revenues were derived from our five top selling brands. One customer, Walmart, accounted for more than 10% of our gross revenues for each of the periods presented. During 2018 , 2017 , and 2016 , Walmart accounted for approximately 23.8% , 21.1% , and 20.2% , respectively, of our gross revenues. At March 31, 2018 , approximately 26.1% of our accounts receivable were owed by Walmart. We manage product distribution in the continental United States through a third-party distribution center in St. Louis, Missouri. A serious disruption, such as an earthquake, tornado, flood or fire, to the main distribution center could damage our inventories and could materially impair our ability to distribute our products to customers in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost. We could incur significantly higher costs and experience longer lead times associated with the distribution of our products to our customers during the time that it takes us to reopen or replace our distribution center. As a result, any such disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, sales and profitability. At March 31, 2018 , we had relationships with 116 third-party manufacturers. Of those, we had long-term contracts with 46 manufacturers that produced items that accounted for approximately 73.6% of our gross sales for 2018 , compared to 47 manufacturers with long-term contracts that accounted for approximately 78.4% of gross sales in 2017 . The fact that we do not have long-term contracts with certain manufacturers means that they could cease manufacturing our products at any time and for any reason or initiate arbitrary and costly price increases, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results from operations. Although we are in the process of negotiating long-term contracts with certain key manufacturers, we may not be able to reach a timely agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events Share Repurchase Program The Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Under the authorization, the Company may purchase common stock through May, 2019 utilizing one or more open market transactions, transactions structured through investment banking institutions, in privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise, by direct purchases of common stock or a combination of the foregoing in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The timing of the purchases and the amount of stock repurchased is subject to the Company's discretion and will depend on market and business conditions, applicable legal and credit requirements and other corporate considerations including the Company’s historical strategy of pursuing accretive acquisitions and deleveraging. Share Based Compensation On May 7, 2018, the Compensation and Talent Management Committee of our Board of Directors granted 103,406 performance units, 100,399 RSUs and stock options to acquire 294,484 shares of our common stock to certain executive officers and employees under the Plan. Performance units are earned based on achievement of the performance objectives set by the Compensation and Talent Management Committee and, if earned, vest in their entirety on the three -year anniversary of the date of grant. RSUs vest either 33.3% per year over three years or in their entirety on the three -year anniversary of the date of grant. Upon vesting, both performance units and RSUs will be settled in shares of our common stock. The stock options will vest 33.3% per year over three years and are exercisable for up to ten years from the date of grant. These stock options were granted at an exercise price of $29.46 per share, which is equal to the closing price for our common stock on the date of the grant. Except in cases of death, disability or retirement, termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the unvested performance units, RSUs and the stock options. Vested stock options will remain exercisable by the employee after termination, subject to the terms of the Plan.

Business and Basis of Present29

Business and Basis of Presentation (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2018
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year ends on March 31st of each year. References in these Consolidated Financial Statements or notes to a year (e.g., “2018”) mean our fiscal year ended on March 31st of that year.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed below, our most significant estimates include those made in connection with the valuation of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, fair value of debt, sales returns and allowances, trade promotional allowances and inventory obsolescence, and the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate.
Reclassification	Reclassification In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) , we have reclassified cash flows on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows related to excess tax benefits from a financing activity to an operating activity for all periods presented. The impact of the reclassification on our Financial Statements was not material.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents We consider all short-term deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 , approximately 23% of our cash is held by a bank in Sydney, Australia. Substantially all of our remaining cash is held by a large regional bank with headquarters in California. We do not believe that, as a result of this concentration, we are subject to any unusual financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking relationships. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) insures our domestic balances, up to $250,000 and $500,000, with a $250,000 limit for cash, respectively.
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable We extend non-interest-bearing trade credit to our customers in the ordinary course of business. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon historical collection experience and expected collectability of the accounts receivable. In an effort to reduce credit risk, we (i) have established credit limits for all of our customer relationships, (ii) perform ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitor the payment history and aging of customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitor open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance.
Inventories	Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, where cost is determined by using the first-in, first-out method. We reduce inventories for the diminution of value resulting from product obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of estimated net realizable value include (i) current sales data and historical return rates, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii) competitive pricing pressures, (iv) new product introductions, (v) product expiration dates, and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence.
Property, Plant and Equipment	Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives: Years Building 15 - 40 Machinery 3 - 15 Computer equipment and software 3 - 5 Furniture and fixtures 7 - 10 Leasehold improvements * *Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset is sold or otherwise disposed of, we remove the cost and associated accumulated depreciation from the respective accounts and recognize the resulting gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
Goodwill	Goodwill The excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations is classified as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, although the carrying value is tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the product group level, which is one level below the operating segment level.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets Intangible assets, which are comprised primarily of tradenames, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets with finite lives, amortization is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, typically ranging from 10 to 30 years. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may exceed their fair values and may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
Deferred Origination Costs	Debt Origination Costs We have incurred debt origination costs in connection with the issuance of long-term debt. These costs are amortized over the term of the related debt, using the effective interest method for our bonds and our term loan facility and the straight-line method for our revolving credit facility. Costs associated with our revolving credit facility are reported as a long-term asset and costs related to our senior notes and the term loan facility are recorded as a reduction of debt.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Revenues are recognized when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the selling price is fixed or determinable; (iii) the product has been shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risk of loss, and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We have determined that these criteria are met and the transfer of the risk of loss generally occurs when product is received by the customer and, accordingly, we recognize revenue at that time. Provisions are made for estimated discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated product returns at the time of sale based on our historical experience. As is customary in the consumer products industry, we participate in the promotional programs of our customers to enhance the sale of our products. The cost of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units sold during a finite period of time. These promotional programs consist of direct-to-consumer incentives, such as coupons and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to our customers, such as allowances for new distribution, including slotting fees, and cooperative advertising. Estimates of the costs of these promotional programs are based on (i) historical sales experience, (ii) the current promotional offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current market conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing personnel. We recognize the cost of such sales incentives by recording an estimate of such cost as a reduction of revenue, at the later of (a) the date the related revenue is recognized, or (b) the date when a particular sales incentive is offered. At the completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted to actual results. Due to the nature of the consumer products industry, we are required to estimate future product returns. Accordingly, we record an estimate of product returns concurrent with recording sales, which is made after analyzing (i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes in customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of our product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation, packaging and advertising.
Cost of Sales	Cost of Sales Cost of sales includes costs related to the manufacture of our products, including raw materials, direct labor and indirect plant costs (including but not limited to depreciation), warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping costs, and handling and storage costs.
Advertising and Promotion Costs	Advertising and Promotion Costs Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Allowances for distribution costs associated with products, including slotting fees, are recognized as a reduction of sales. Under these slotting fee distribution arrangements, the retailers allow our products to be placed on the stores’ shelves in exchange for such fees.
Stock-based Compensation	Stock-based Compensation We recognize stock-based compensation expense by measuring the cost of services to be rendered based on the grant-date fair value of the equity award. Compensation expense is recognized over the period a grantee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, generally referred to as the requisite service period.
Pension Expense	Pension Expense Certain employees of C.B. Fleet Company, Inc. (" Fleet ") are covered by defined benefit pension plans. The Company’s policy is to contribute at least the minimum amount required under The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The Company may elect to make additional contributions. Benefits are based on years of service and levels of compensation. On December 16, 2014, the decision was made to freeze the benefits under the Company's U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan with an effective date of March 1, 2015. The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon many factors, including returns on invested assets and the level of certain market interest rates. We review pension assumptions regularly and we may from time to time make voluntary contributions to our pension plans that exceed the amounts required by statute. Changes in interest rates and the market value of the securities held by the plans could materially change, positively or negatively, the funded status of the plans and affect the level of pension expense and required contributions in fiscal 2019 and beyond.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act"). The Tax Act represents significant U.S. federal tax reform legislation that includes a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. The permanent reduction to the federal corporate income tax rate resulted in a one-time gain of $267.0 million related to the value of our deferred tax liabilities and a gain of $3.2 million related to the lower blended tax rate on our current year earnings, resulting in a net gain of $270.2 million . Additionally, the tax reform legislation subjects certain of our cumulative foreign earnings and profits to U.S. income taxes through a deemed repatriation, which resulted in a charge of $1.9 million during 2018 . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Income Taxes topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the various taxing authorities. As a result, we have applied such guidance in determining our tax uncertainties. We are subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. We classify penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed based on income available to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on income available to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, which includes stock options and restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Potential common shares, composed of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and unvested RSUs, are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation to the extent that they are dilutive. In loss periods, the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and RSUs has an antidilutive effect, and therefore these instruments are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740) . The amendments in this update reflect the income tax accounting implications of the Tax Act. See "Income Taxes" above for a discussion of the Tax Act that was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and the impact it has had and may have on our business and financial results. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . The amendments in this update allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. See "Income Taxes" above for a discussion of the Tax Act that was signed into law on December 22, 2017, and the impact it has had and may have on our business and financial results. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have early adopted ASU 2018-02 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . The amendments in this update involve several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the amendments in this update were effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective April 1, 2017, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory . The amendments in this update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards, under which an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. For public business entities, the amendments were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of ASU 2015-11, effective April 1, 2017, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost , which changes the presentation of net periodic benefit cost related to employer sponsored defined benefit plans and other postretirement benefits. Service cost should be included in the same income statement line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period, while other components of net periodic benefit pension cost should be presented separately outside of operating income. Additionally, only service costs may be capitalized in assets. Entities should apply the guidance on the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement retrospectively. The guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost in assets to the service cost component should be applied prospectively. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this standard will require us to move certain pension costs out of operating income. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) . The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and whether to early adopt this ASU. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. We will adopt this standard as of the beginning of our fiscal 2019, and we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The amendments in this update provide clarification and guidance on eight cash flow classification issues. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt this standard as of the beginning of our fiscal 2019, and we do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The amendments in this update include a new FASB ASC Topic 842, which supersedes Topic 840. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of interim or annual reporting periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Topic 606 , including new FASB ASC 606, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in FASB ASC 605. Along with amendments issued in 2015 and 2016, the new guidance will eliminate industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods and services equal to an amount it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods and services. The new standard will also require additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. The new guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance to all contracts existing at the date of initial application (the modified retrospective method). The ASU, as amended, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Our implementation approach included performing a detailed study of the various types of agreements that we have with our customers and assessed conformance of our current accounting practices with the new standard. We will adopt the guidance effective on April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. We are finalizing the accounting policies under the new guidance and determined it may impact the timing of revenue recognition for product sales and the timing of revenue reductions associated with certain customer promotional programs we participate in.
