Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation	1. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation References to “Fortune Brands,” “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 and security applications. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2016, the related condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and equity for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements have been included. 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 December 31, 2015 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, 2015. The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were derived principally from the consolidated financial statements of the Company. In May 2015, we acquired Norcraft Companies, Inc. (“Norcraft”). The financial results of Norcraft were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income and statements of cash flow for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. In September 2015, we completed the sale of Waterloo Industries, Inc. (“Waterloo”), our tool storage business. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) requirements, the results of operations of Waterloo were classified and separately stated as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2015. The cash flows from discontinued operations for the nine months ending September 30, 2015 were not separately classified on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Information on Business Segments was revised to exclude these discontinued operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Stan

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	9 Months Ended

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In September 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15 that will change how an entity classifies certain cash receipts and cash payments on its statement of cash flows. The key changes that may potentially impact our financial statements include the following: 1) Cash payments for debt prepayment or extinguishment costs should be classified as financing cash outflows; 2) Contingent consideration payments that are not made within three months after the consummation of a business combination would be classified as financing (if payment made is up to the acquisition date fair value of liability) or operating outflows (if in excess of acquisition fair value). Cash payments made “soon after” the consummation of a business combination generally will be classified as cash outflows for investing activities; 3) Insurance settlement proceeds, would be classified based on the nature of the loss; and 4) Company-owned life insurance settlement proceeds would be presented as investing cash inflows, and premiums could be classified as investing or operating cash outflows, or a combination of both. The new standard is effective beginning January 1, 2018 and should be adopted retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements. Financial Instruments—Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 that changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and other receivables and loans as well as off-balance-sheet credit exposures (e.g., loan commitments, standby letters of credit). The standard will replace the “incurred loss” approach under the current guidance with an “expected loss” model that requires an entity to estimate its lifetime “expected credit loss”. The new standard is effective beginning January 1, 2020 and early application is permitted but not earlier than January 1, 2019. We are assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements. Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 that requires entities to recognize the income tax effects of share-based awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The new standard also allows entities to withhold an amount up to an employee’s maximum individual tax rate in the relevant jurisdiction without resulting in liability classification of the award. The new standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2017. We early adopted this standard as of June 30, 2016. We have reclassified $9.8 million and $13.8 million of employee withholding taxes paid from operating into financing activities in the statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, respectively, as required by ASU 2016-09 (adopted retrospectively). Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, which eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when an entity obtains significant influence over a previously held investment. Previously, entities were required to retrospectively apply the equity method of accounting when obtaining significant influence over an investment (for example due to an increase in ownership). The new standard is effective beginning January 1, 2017. Earlier application is permitted, however we elected not to early adopt. We do not expect this standard to have a material effect on our financial statements. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” that requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a “right-of-use” asset and lease liability but recognize related expenses in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (calendar year 2019 for Fortune Brands) and earlier application is permitted. We are assessing the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements. Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities In January 2016, the FASB issued final guidance ASU 2016-01 that requires entities to measure investments in unconsolidated entities (other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting) at fair value through the income statement. There will no longer be an available-for-sale classification (with changes in fair value reported in Other Comprehensive Income). In addition, the cost method is eliminated for equity investments without readily determinable fair values. The new standard is effective beginning January 1, 2018. Earlier application is permitted for certain provisions of the standard, however we elected not to early adopt. We do not expect this standard to have a material effect on our financial statements. Simplifying Subsequent Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued a final standard that simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by replacing the current standard of lower of cost or market test. Under the current guidance the subsequent measurement of inventory is measured at the lower of cost or market, where “market” may have multiple possible outcomes. The new guidance requires subsequent measurement of inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs to sell (completion, disposal, and transportation). This new standard is effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2017. Earlier application is permitted, however we elected not to early adopt. We do not expect this standard to have a material effect on our financial statements. Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern In August 2014, the FASB issued 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 (calendar year 2017 for Fortune Brands), and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted, however we elected not to early adopt. 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 standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (calendar year 2018 for Fortune Brands). During the first half of 2016, the FASB issued the final amendments to the standard relating to the principal versus agent guidance, accounting for licenses of intellectual property and identifying performance obligations as well as the guidance on transition, collectability, noncash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are the same as those of the new revenue standard. We expect to complete our assessment of the impact of adoption in the second quarter of 2017 and finalize the adoption process of the new revenue standard by the end of 2017.

Acquisitions

Acquisitions	4. Acquisitions In September 2016, we acquired ROHL, a California-based luxury plumbing company. In a related transaction, we also acquired TCL Manufacturing Ltd, which gave us 100% ownership of Perrin & Rowe, a UK manufacturer and designer of luxury kitchen and bathroom plumbing products. The total combined purchase price was approximately $166 million (including $3 million of liabilities assumed), subject to certain post-closing adjustments. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. Net sales and operating income in the three months ended September 30, 2016 were not material to the Company. The results of operations are included in the Plumbing segment. In May 2016, we acquired Riobel, a Canadian plumbing company specializing in premium showroom bath and shower fittings, for a total purchase price of $88.4 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. Net sales and operating income in the nine and three months ended September 30, 2016 were not material to the Company. The results of operations are included in the Plumbing segment. In May 2015, we completed our tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Norcraft, a leading publicly-owned manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, for a total purchase price of $648.6 million in cash. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our existing credit facilities. This transaction is expected to strengthen our overall product offering, round out our regional market penetration and enhance our frameless cabinetry capabilities. The results of operations of Norcraft are included in the Cabinets segment. We incurred $15.1 million of Norcraft acquisition-related transaction costs during the year ended December 31, 2015. The goodwill deductible for income tax purposes is $66.2 million. During the third quarter of 2016 and following the completion of the Norcraft purchase accounting measurement period, the Company identified certain immaterial prior period balance sheet misstatements relating to calculation of deferred tax liabilities as disclosed in the purchase price allocation related to the Norcraft acquisition. The correction of the cumulative misstatement during the third quarter of 2016 resulted in a $24.3 million and $15.4 million reduction in Norcraft’s deferred tax liabilities and the carrying value of goodwill, respectively, and an offsetting increase of $8.9 million in the uncertain tax positions accrual. The Company assessed the materiality of these misstatements on previously issued financial statements and concluded that the misstatements were not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements for any interim or annual periods taken as a whole. The following table summarizes the final allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of the Norcraft acquisition. (In millions) Accounts receivable $ 30.8 Inventories 28.6 Property, plant and equipment 45.3 Goodwill 290.6 Identifiable intangible assets 360.0 Other assets 9.4 Total assets 764.7 Deferred tax liabilities 75.6 Other liabilities and accruals 40.5 Net assets acquired (a) $ 648.6 (a) Net assets exclude $15.5 million of cash transferred to the Company as the result of the Norcraft acquisition. Goodwill includes expected sales and cost synergies. Identifiable intangible assets consist of an indefinite-lived tradename of $150 million and customer relationships of $210 million. The useful life of the customer relationships identifiable intangible asset was estimated to be 20 years. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated financial information as if Norcraft had been acquired on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on historical results of operations and financial position of the Company and Norcraft. The pro forma results include: • estimated amortization of a definite-lived customer relationship intangible asset (amortized using the straight-line method), • the estimated cost of the inventory adjustment to fair value, • interest expense associated with debt that would have been incurred in connection with the acquisition, • the reclassification of Norcraft transaction costs from 2015 to the first quarter of 2014, and • adjustments to conform accounting policies. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not necessarily represent the results that would have occurred had the Norcraft acquisition occurred on January 1, 2014. In addition, the unaudited pro forma information should not be deemed to be indicative of future results. (In millions, except per share amounts) Nine Months Ended Three Months Ended Net sales $ 3,497.0 $ 1,238.7 Income from continuing operations 235.0 100.1 Basic earnings per common share $ 1.47 $ 0.62 Diluted earnings per common share $ 1.44 $ 0.61 In March 2015, we acquired a Cabinets component company for approximately $6 million in cash. This acquisition did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued Operations	5. Discontinued Operations In September 2015, we completed the sale of Waterloo for approximately $14 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. We recorded a pre-tax loss of $16.9 million as the result of this sale. Transaction and other sale-related costs were approximately $2.8 million. The estimated tax benefit on the sale was $26.5 million with the after-tax gain of $7.0 million recorded within discontinued operations. The estimated tax benefit resulted primarily from a tax loss in excess of the financial reporting loss as a result of prior period nondeductible asset impairments. Waterloo is presented as a discontinued operation in our financial statements beginning January 1, 2015 and through the date of sale in accordance with ASC 205 requirements. Prior to classifying Waterloo as a discontinued operation, it was reported in the Security 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 Waterloo as discontinued operations. The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2015. (in millions) Nine Months Ended Three Months Ended Net sales $ 78.2 $ 27.8 Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes $ (15.6 ) $ (17.2 ) Income taxes (24.2 ) (25.0 ) Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 8.6 $ 7.8

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets We had goodwill of $1,835.0 million and $1,755.3 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The $79.7 million increase was primarily due to the acquisitions in the Plumbing segment partially offset by the correction of Norcraft tax misstatements as discussed in Note 4. The change in the net carrying amount of goodwill by segment was as follows: (In millions) Cabinets Plumbing Doors Security Total Goodwill at December 31, 2015 (a) $ 937.7 $ 578.6 $ 143.0 $ 96.0 $ 1,755.3 Year-to-date translation adjustments 1.8 (1.5 ) — 0.7 1.0 Acquisition-related adjustments (14.2 ) 92.9 — — 78.7 Goodwill at September 30, 2016 (a) $ 925.3 $ 670.0 $ 143.0 $ 96.7 $ 1,835.0 (a) Net of accumulated impairment losses of $399.5 million in the Doors segment. We also had identifiable intangible assets, principally tradenames, of $1,113.9 million and $996.7 million, net of accumulated amortization, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The $140.7 million increase in gross identifiable intangible assets was primarily due to the acquisitions in our Plumbing segment. The gross carrying value and accumulated amortization by class of identifiable intangible assets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows: (In millions) As of September 30, 2016 As of December 31, 2015 Gross Accumulated Net Gross Accumulated Net Indefinite-lived tradenames $ 679.1 $ — $ 679.1 $ 638.6 $ — $ 638.6 Amortizable intangible assets Tradenames 16.4 (7.6 ) 8.8 19.1 (8.6 ) 10.5 Customer and contractual relationships 605.9 (197.2 ) 408.7 511.2 (177.4 ) 333.8 Patents/proprietary technology 62.9 (45.6 ) 17.3 54.7 (40.9 ) 13.8 Total 685.2 (250.4 ) 434.8 585.0 (226.9 ) 358.1 Total identifiable intangibles $ 1,364.3 $ (250.4 ) $ 1,113.9 $ 1,223.6 $ (226.9 ) $ 996.7 Amortizable identifiable intangible assets, principally tradenames and customer relationships, are subject to amortization over their estimated useful life, ranging from 3 to 30 years, based on the assessment of a number of factors that may impact useful life. These factors include historical tradename performance with respect to consumer name recognition, geographic market presence, market share, plans for ongoing tradename support and promotion, customer attrition rates, and other relevant factors. During the first nine months of 2016, no events or circumstances occurred that would have required us to perform interim impairment tests of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets.

External Debt and Financing Arr

External Debt and Financing Arrangements	9 Months Ended

External Debt and Financing Arrangements	7. External Debt and Financing Arrangements In June 2016, the Company amended and restated its credit agreement to combine and rollover the existing revolving credit facility and term loan into a new standalone $1.25 billion revolving credit facility. This amendment of the credit agreement was a non-cash transaction for the Company. Terms and conditions of the credit agreement, including the total commitment amount, essentially remained the same. The revolving credit facility matures in June 2021 and borrowings thereunder will be used for general corporate purposes. On September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our outstanding borrowings under these facilities, net of debt issuance costs relating to the term loan balance, were $695.0 million and $279.0 million, respectively. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the current portion of long-term debt was zero. Interest rates under the facility are variable based on LIBOR at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s long-term credit rating and can range from LIBOR + 0.9% to LIBOR + 1.5%. As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants under this facility. As a result of the refinancing, we wrote-off prepaid debt issuance costs of approximately $1.3 million as of June 30, 2016. We retrospectively adopted ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” on January 1, 2016, resulting in the reclassification of approximately $3 million of debt issuance costs from other current assets and other assets to long-term debt as of December 31, 2015. Adoption of this new guidance did not impact the Company’s equity, results of operations or cash flows. In June 2015, we issued $900 million of unsecured senior notes (“Senior Notes”) in a registered public offering. The Senior Notes consist of two tranches: $400 million of five-year notes due 2020 with a coupon of 3% and $500 million of ten-year notes due 2025 with a coupon of 4%. We used the proceeds from the Senior Notes offering to pay down our revolving credit facility and for general purposes. On September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding amount of the Senior Notes, net of underwriting commissions, price discounts and debt issuance costs, was $890.8 million and $889.7 million, respectively. We currently have uncommitted bank lines of credit in China, which provide for unsecured borrowings for working capital of up to $25.7 million in aggregate, of which zero and $0.8 million was outstanding, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. There were no borrowings in the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2015.

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments	9 Months Ended

Financial Instruments	8. 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 commodity prices 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 Mexican peso and the Chinese yuan. The gross U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of all foreign currency derivative hedges outstanding at September 30, 2016 was $212.2 million, representing a net settlement liability of $2.6 million. Based on foreign exchange rates as of September 30, 2016, we estimate that $2.4 million of net foreign currency derivative losses included in other comprehensive income as of September 30, 2016 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, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were: (In millions) Fair Value Location September 30, December 31, Assets Foreign exchange contracts Other current assets $ 1.2 $ 6.7 Net investment hedges Other current assets — 0.1 Total assets $ 1.2 $ 6.8 Liabilities Foreign exchange contracts Other current liabilities $ 3.6 $ 3.1 Net investment hedges Other current liabilities 0.2 — Total liabilities $ 3.8 $ 3.1 The effects of derivative financial instruments on the statements of comprehensive income for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were: (In millions) Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income Type of hedge Location 2016 2015 Cash flow Cost of products sold $ (2.6 ) $ 3.0 Fair value Other (income) expense, net 1.3 5.9 Total $ (1.3 ) $ 8.9 (In millions) Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income Type of hedge Location 2016 2015 Cash flow Cost of products sold $ (1.2 ) $ 1.0 Fair value Other (income) expense, net 0.3 3.2 Total $ (0.9 ) $ 4.2 The effective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive income were net (losses) gains of $(8.0) million and $4.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The effective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive income were net (losses) gains of zero and $2.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In the nine and three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges recognized in other (income) expense, net, was insignificant.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	9 Months Ended

Fair Value Measurements	9. Fair Value Measurements 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. The carrying value, net of underwriting commissions, price discounts and debt issuance costs and fair value of debt as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows: (In millions) September 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Revolving credit facility $ 695.0 $ 695.0 $ — $ — Notes payable to bank — — 0.8 0.8 Term loan — — 279.0 280.0 Senior Notes, net of underwriting commissions and price discounts 890.8 944.5 889.7 894.1 The estimated fair value of our Senior notes and term loan is determined primarily using broker quotes, which are level 2 inputs. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were as follows: (In millions) Fair Value September 30, December 31, Assets Derivative financial instruments (level 2) $ 1.2 $ 6.8 Deferred compensation program assets (level 2) 3.3 3.1 Total assets $ 4.5 $ 9.9 Liabilities Derivative financial instruments (level 2) $ 3.8 $ 3.1 During the second quarter of 2016, we entered into a joint venture arrangement with a partner to operate a manufacturing facility in China. Under the arrangement, we are required to make certain fixed payments to our partner each year starting in June 2017 and through June 2024 (final year of the agreement) and also purchase the outstanding preferred shares of our partner in 2024. During the second quarter of 2016, we recognized the fair value of $8.2 million of these contractual payments, including a redemption of the preferred shares ($7.2 million within other non-current liabilities and $1.0 million due within one year in other current liabilities). We have also recognized the excess of $5.2 million of this liability fair value over the $3.0 million cash contributed by our partner within paid-in capital.

Due to the risk of litigation at the time of the initial communication, the Company elected to defer the full recognition of the benefit arising from the plan amendment. Following a favorable court decision in the first quarter of 2016, the Company determined that it was now probable that it would realize the benefit from the plan amendment. As a result, the Company performed a re-measurement of the affected retiree plan liability as of March 31, 2016. This remeasurement resulted in a $10.7 million reduction of accrued retiree benefit plan liabilities and a corresponding increase in prior service credits. These prior service credits will be amortized over the next eight months after September 30, 2016. In addition, we recorded a $0.9 million actuarial loss during the first quarter of 2016. In the third quarter of 2015, we recognized actuarial losses of $6.1 million related to the sale of the Waterloo tool storage business in discontinued operations in addition to the $2.8 million of actuarial losses reflected above.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes	12. Income Taxes The effective income tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were 28.2% and 34.0%, respectively. In 2016, the effective income tax rate was favorably impacted by a tax benefit related to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the new accounting guidance relating to share-based compensation. The effective income tax rate for 2015 was unfavorably impacted by the tax cost related to the final settlement of a federal income tax audit covering the 2010 and nine months ended September 30, 2011 tax years, non-deductible acquisition costs associated with the Norcraft acquisition, and restructuring charges for which the Company could not recognize a tax benefit. In addition, the effective income tax rates in 2016 and 2015 were favorably impacted by the tax benefit attributable to the Domestic Production Activity (Internal Revenue Code Section 199) Deduction, favorable tax rates in foreign jurisdictions, and a benefit associated with the U.S. research and development credit, offset by state and local taxes and increases to uncertain tax positions. The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were 28.6% and 32.8%, respectively. In 2016, the effective income tax rate was favorably impacted by a tax benefit related to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the new accounting guidance relating to share-based compensation. In addition, the effective income tax rates in 2016 and 2015 were favorably impacted by the tax benefit attributable to the Domestic Production Activity (Internal Revenue Code Section 199) Deduction, favorable tax rates in foreign jurisdictions, and a benefit associated with the U.S. research and development credit, offset by state and local taxes and increases to uncertain tax positions. It is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, total unrecognized tax benefits may decrease in the range of $1 million to $5 million, primarily as a result of the conclusion of pending U.S. federal, state and foreign income tax proceedings.

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 adverse 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 Fortune Brands during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. 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. We believe compliance with current environmental protection laws (before taking into account estimated recoveries from third parties) will not have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. Uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites make it difficult to develop estimates of environmental remediation exposures.
