	References to “Home & Security,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries as a whole, unless the context otherwise requires.
	The Company is a leading home and security products company with a portfolio of leading branded products used for residential home repair, remodeling, new construction, security applications and storage.
	The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2014, the related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and equity for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. Interim results may not be indicative of results for a full year.
	The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not contain certain information included in our annual consolidated financial statements and notes. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) requirements and in connection with the sale of all of the shares of stock of Fortune Brands Windows, Inc., our subsidiary that owned and operated the Simonton windows business (“Simonton”), the results of operations of Simonton were reclassified and separately stated as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. The assets and liabilities of Simonton were reclassified as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013. The cash flows from discontinued operations for the nine months ending September 30, 2014 and 2013 were not separately classified on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Information on Business Segments was revised to exclude this discontinued operation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	'
	2	Recently Issued Accounting Standards
	Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
	In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” This ASU provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. This amendment is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. We do not expect this standard to have a material effect on our financial statements.
	Revenue from Contracts with Customers
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This ASU clarifies the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and specifies the disclosures that an entity should include in its financial statements. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 (calendar year 2017 for Home & Security). We are assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements.
	Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity
	In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” This ASU changes the definition of discontinued operations and requires expanded disclosures. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 (calendar year 2015 for Home & Security). We do not expect this standard to have a material effect on our financial statements.

Discontinued Operation	'
	3	Discontinued Operation
	In August 2014, the Company decided to sell its Simonton window business in order to prioritize management and financial resources on its remaining higher margin businesses and better position them for growth in future periods. As a result of the decision, in August 2014, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell Simonton for $130 million in cash. The sale was completed in September 2014. Simonton is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company’s financial statements beginning in the third quarter of 2014 in accordance with ASC requirements. Simonton was previously reported in the Advanced Material Windows & Door Systems segment, which has been renamed the Doors segment.
	The condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and condensed consolidated balance sheets for all prior periods have been adjusted to reflect the presentation of Simonton as a discontinued operation.
	The following table summarizes the results of the discontinued operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

	4	Acquisitions
	In July 2014, the Company acquired John D. Brush & Co., Inc. (“SentrySafe”) for a purchase price of $118.5 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The purchase price was funded from existing credit facilities. This acquisition broadens our product offering of security products. A preliminary allocation of the purchase price has been reflected in these financial statements and will be updated as asset and liability valuations are finalized. Final adjustments will reflect the fair value assigned to the assets, including intangible assets, and assumed liabilities. The acquisition was not material for the purposes of supplemental disclosure and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Net sales in the two months ended September 30, 2014 were approximately $25 million.
	In June 2013, the Company acquired Woodcrafters Home Products Holding, LLC (“WoodCrafters”), a manufacturer of bathroom vanities and tops, for a purchase price of $302 million. We paid the purchase price using a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. This acquisition greatly expanded our offerings of bathroom cabinetry products. Net sales and operating income of WoodCrafters in the first six months of 2014 were approximately $100 million and $12 million, respectively.
	The following table summarizes the final allocation of the purchase price to fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the acquisition.

	Net assets acquired		$	302
	Goodwill primarily represents expected supply chain synergies. Identifiable intangible assets primarily consisted of customer relationships ($75.9 million) and technology ($9.6 million). The useful lives of these identifiable intangible assets are 18 years and 10 years, respectively.
	The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated financial information as if WoodCrafters had been acquired on January 1, 2012. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on historical results of operations and financial position of the Company and WoodCrafters. In accordance with ASC requirements, the results of operations related to the sale of Simonton were reclassified and not included the summary below. The pro forma results include adjustments for the impact of a preliminary allocation of the purchase price and interest expense associated with debt that would have been incurred in connection with the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not necessarily represent the results that would have occurred had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2012. In addition, the unaudited pro forma information should not be deemed to be indicative of future results.

The $45.4 million increase in gross amortizable identifiable intangible assets was predominantly due to the acquisition of SentrySafe.

Asset Impairment Charges	'
	7	Asset Impairment Charges
	No asset impairment charges occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2014. At the end of the third quarter of 2013, our Cabinets segment completed an evaluation of its information technology strategy. The evaluation considered opportunities arising from the improving U.S. home market conditions. As a result of this evaluation, the segment abandoned certain software developed for internal use in order to redirect financial resources toward developing more flexible systems that provide industry leading content for consumers and more advanced tools for designers to deliver a superior purchasing experience for our customers. The abandonment of this internal use software resulted in a pre-tax impairment charge of $21.2 million, which was recorded in operating income and reduced property, plant and equipment.
	The events and/or circumstances that could have a potential negative effect on the estimated fair value of our reporting units and indefinite-lived tradenames include: actual new construction and repair and remodel growth rates that lag our assumptions, actions of key customers, volatility of discount rates, continued economic uncertainty, higher levels of unemployment, weak consumer confidence, and lower levels of discretionary consumer spending. In addition, future decisions we could make with regard to acquisitions and divestitures could trigger a requirement to measure certain assets as held for sale with the resulting change in measurement standard potentially triggering impairments. While our cash flow projections used to assess impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets held for use are influenced by a number of variables, they are most significantly influenced by our projection for the continued recovery of the U.S. home products markets in the next three years and our ability to execute on various planned cost reduction initiatives supporting operating income improvements forecasted to occur over the next three years. We evaluate our projection of the U.S. home products market periodically and in connection with our annual operating plans finalized in the fourth quarter of each year. The U.S. home products market is highly dependent on U.S. new home construction and the rate of spending on repair and remodel activities. Our projection for the U.S. home products markets is inherently subject to a number of uncertain factors, such as employment, home prices, credit availability, and the rate of home foreclosures. Significant changes in these and other factors could cause us to change our cash flow projections in future periods which could trigger impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets in the period in which such changes occur.

	In August 2014, the Company amended its credit agreement to increase total lending commitments from $1 billion to $1.5 billion. All other terms and conditions of the credit agreement remain essentially the same. As a result of the refinancing, there was no write-off of prepaid debt issuance costs. We have a $975 million committed revolving credit facility, as well as a $525 million term loan, both of which expire in July 2018. Both facilities can be used for general corporate purposes. On September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our outstanding borrowings under these facilities were $680.0 million and $350.0 million, respectively. The interest rates under these facilities are variable based on LIBOR at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s leverage as measured by a debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio. Based upon the Company’s debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio at September 30, 2014, the Company’s borrowing rate will range from LIBOR + 1.0% to LIBOR + 2.0%. As of September 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities.
	At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were $3.5 million and $6.0 million of external short-term borrowings outstanding, respectively, comprised of notes payable to banks that are used for general corporate purposes. The September 30, 2014 amount pertained to uncommitted bank lines of credit in China. The December 31, 2013 amount also includes a bank line of credit in India, which was repaid and terminated in 2014. These bank lines of credit provide for unsecured borrowings for working capital of up to $15.7 million and $22.7 million, as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings were 8.2% and 12.4% in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings were 12.2% and 12.5% in the three-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	As of September 30, 2014, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“JPM”) owned approximately 12% of the Company’s common stock. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a subsidiary of JPM, was a lender of $56.4 million of our total debt under our credit facilities and held $0.4 million of our cash balances. In addition, JPMorgan Investment Management, Inc., another subsidiary of JPM, manages pension assets in the Company’s Master Retirement Trust, which totaled $24.4 million as of September 30, 2014. JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not participate in management of the Company nor do any of its employees sit on our Board of Directors.

Financial Instruments	'
	9	Financial Instruments
	We do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We principally use financial instruments to reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodities used as raw materials in our products. The principal derivative financial instruments we enter into on a routine basis are foreign exchange contracts. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value. The counterparties to derivative contracts are major financial institutions. Management currently believes that the risk of incurring material losses is unlikely and that the losses, if any, would be immaterial to the Company. In addition, from time to time, we enter into commodity swaps.
	Our primary foreign currency hedge contracts pertain to the Canadian dollar, the Chinese yuan and the Mexican peso. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of all foreign currency derivative hedges outstanding at September 30, 2014 was $274.6 million, representing a net settlement asset of $1.0 million. Based on foreign exchange rates as of September 30, 2014, we estimate that $0.8 million of net foreign currency derivative gains included in other comprehensive income as of September 30, 2014 will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months.
	The fair values of derivative instruments on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were:
				Fair Value
	(In millions)		Location	September 30,			December 31,

	The effective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive income were net (losses) gains of $(0.1) million and $3.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The effective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive income were net gains of $2.8 million and $1.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In the nine and three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other expense (income), net, was insignificant.

	The principal derivative financial instruments we enter into on a routine basis are foreign exchange contracts. In addition, from time to time, we enter into commodity swaps. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value.
	ASC requirements for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. Level 1 inputs, the highest priority, are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs reflect inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either observable directly or through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability, such as internally-developed valuation models. We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis that are Level 3.
	The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of $680.0 million and $350.0 million, respectively, approximated fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was determined primarily by using broker quotes, which are Level 2 inputs.

	In the third quarter of 2014, the Company made qualified pension plan contributions of approximately $2 million. In the remainder of 2014, we do not expect to make additional qualified pension plan contributions.
	In the first quarter of 2014, we communicated our decision to amend certain postretirement benefits to reduce health benefits for certain current and retired employees. The impact of these changes was a reduction in accrued retiree benefit plan liabilities of $15.3 million and we recorded actuarial losses of $0.6 million and prior service credits of $3.5 million. In the first half of 2013, we communicated our decision to amend certain postretirement benefit plans to reduce health benefits for certain current and retired employees. The impact of these changes was a reduction in accrued retiree benefits of $34.8 million in the first nine months of 2013 and we recognized actuarial losses of $4.8 million in the first nine months of 2013 due to a decrease in the discount rate and a resulting lower threshold for loss recognition because of the reduced postretirement obligation. Liability reductions from these plan amendments are recorded as amortization of prior service cost in net income in accordance with accounting requirements. See Note 18, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” for information on the impact on accumulated other comprehensive income.

	The effective income tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 31.8% and 33.5%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for 2014 was favorably impacted by the release of valuation allowances related to state net operating loss carryforwards and by the tax benefit associated with the anticipated year-over-year increase of the Domestic Production Activity (Internal Revenue Code Section 199) deduction. The effective income tax rate for 2013 was unfavorably impacted by an increase in the valuation allowance related to an investment impairment charge for which we could not record an income tax benefit and favorably impacted by the tax benefits associated with the extension of the U.S. research and development credit under The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012.
	The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 33.6% and 33.2%, respectively.
	It is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, total unrecognized tax benefits may decrease in the range of $2 million to $6 million, primarily as a result of the conclusion of pending U.S. federal, state and foreign income tax proceedings.

Such charges or gains may include losses on disposal of inventories, trade receivables, allowances from exiting product lines, accelerated depreciation resulting from the closure of facilities and gains or losses on the sale of previously closed facilities.
	Restructuring and other charges in the first nine months of 2014 primarily resulted from product line rationalization in the storage product line within our Security & Storage segment and severance charges in Corporate and the security product line within our Security & Storage segment, partially offset by a benefit from release of a foreign currency gain associated with the dissolution of a foreign entity in the Plumbing segment.

	Litigation
	We are defendants in lawsuits associated with the normal conduct of our businesses and operations. It is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any litigation, it is possible that these actions could be decided unfavorably to the Company. The Company believes that there are meritorious defenses to these actions and that these actions will not have a material effect upon our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, and where appropriate, these actions are being vigorously contested.
	Environmental
	Compliance with federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, did not have a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position of Home & Security during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. We are involved in remediation activities to clean up hazardous wastes as required by federal and state laws. Liabilities for remediation costs of each site are based on our best estimate of undiscounted future costs, excluding possible insurance recoveries or recoveries from other third parties. Uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites make it difficult to develop estimates of environmental remediation exposures.
