Forward Looking Statements and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Forward-Looking Statements: Certain written and oral statements made by the Company and subsidiaries of the Company may constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This includes statements made in this presentation. Generally, the words “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects”, “plans”, “may”, “will”, “would”, “should”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “project”, “predict”, “potential”, “currently”, “continue”, “intends”, “outlook”, and other similar words identify forward-looking statements. All statements that address operating results, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including statements related to sales, earnings per share results, and statements expressing general expectations about future operating results, are forward-looking statements and are based upon its current expectations and various assumptions. The Company believes there is a reasonable basis for these expectations and assumptions, but there can be no assurance that the Company will realize these expectations or that these assumptions will prove correct. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks that could cause them to differ materially from actual results. Accordingly, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation should be read in conjunction with, and are subject to and qualified by, the risks described in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2021, and in the Company's other filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to refer to the risk factors referred to above for a description of these risks. Such risks include, among others, the Company's ability to successfully manage the demand, supply, and operational challenges associated with the actual or perceived effects of COVID-19 and any similar future public health crisis, pandemic or epidemic, the Company's ability to deliver products to its customers in a timely manner and according to their fulfillment standards, actions taken by large customers that may adversely affect the Company's gross profit and operating results, the Company's dependence on the strength of retail economies and vulnerabilities to any prolonged economic downturn, including from the effects of COVID-19, the Company's dependence on sales to several large customers and the risks associated with any loss of, or substantial decline in, sales to top customers, expectations regarding recent acquisitions and any future acquisitions or divestitures, including the Company's ability to realize related synergies along with its ability to effectively integrate acquired businesses or disaggregate divested businesses, the Company's reliance on its Chief Executive Officer and a limited number of other key senior officers to operate its business, obsolescence or interruptions in the operation of the Company's central global Enterprise Resource Planning systems and other peripheral information systems, occurrence of cyber incidents or failure by the Company or its third-party service providers to maintain cybersecurity and the integrity of confidential internal or customer data, the Company's dependence on third-party manufacturers, most of which are located in the Asia Pacific market, and any inability to obtain products from such manufacturers, risks associated with weather conditions, the duration and severity of the cold and flu season and other related factors, the geographic concentration and peak season capacity of certain U.S. distribution facilities which increase its risk to disruptions that could affect the Company's ability to deliver products in a timely manner, risks associated with the use of licensed trademarks from or to third parties, the Company's ability to develop and introduce a continuing stream of innovative new products to meet changing consumer preferences, the risks associated with trade barriers, exchange controls, expropriations, and other risks associated with domestic and foreign operations, the risks associated with significant changes in or the Company’s compliance with regulations, interpretations or product certification requirements, the risks associated with the Company’s discussions with the EPA on the development and implementation of compliance plans related to certain of its products within the Health & Home segment, the risks associated with global legal developments regarding privacy and data security that could result in changes to its business practices, penalties, increased cost of operations, or otherwise harm the business, the risks associated with accounting for tax positions and the resolution of tax disputes, the risks of potential changes in laws and regulations, including environmental, health and safety and tax laws, and the costs and complexities of compliance with such laws, the Company's ability to continue to avoid classification as a Controlled Foreign Corporation, the risks associated with legislation enacted in Bermuda and Barbados in response to the European Union’s review of harmful tax competition, the risks of significant tariffs or other restrictions being placed on imports from China or Mexico or any retaliatory trade measures taken by China or Mexico, the risks associated with product recalls, product liability and other claims against the Company, and associated financial risks including but not limited to, significant impairment of the Company's goodwill, indefinite-lived and definite- lived intangible assets or other long-lived assets, risks associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, increased costs of raw materials, energy and transportation, projections of product demand, sales and net income, which are highly subjective in nature, and from which future sales and net income could vary in a material amount, the risks to the Company's liquidity or cost of capital which may be materially adversely affected by constraints or changes in the capital and credit markets and limitations under its financing arrangements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share (“EPS”), Core and Non-Core Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow, and Free Cash Flow per Diluted Share (“Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) that are discussed in this presentation or in the accompanying tables may be considered non-GAAP financial information as contemplated by SEC Regulation G, Rule 100. Accordingly, the Company is providing the tables within this presentation which reconcile these measures to their corresponding GAAP-based measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in combination with the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain charges and benefits on applicable income, margin and earnings per share measures. The Company also believes that these non-GAAP measures facilitate a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance with its competitors. The Company further believes that including the excluded charges and benefits would not accurately reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s operations for the period in which the charges and benefits are incurred, even though such charges and benefits may be incurred and reflected in the Company’s GAAP financial results in the near future. The material limitation associated with the use of the non-GAAP measures is that the non-GAAP measures do not reflect the full economic impact of the Company’s activities. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not an alternative to GAAP financial information, and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on non-GAAP information.

Meaningful Mitigation Underway to Partially Offset FY22 Headwinds 11 T a il w in d s Headwinds Mitigation Measures • Improved product mix • Price increases • Forward buying of inventory to delay cost impacts • Utilizing previously negotiated shipping contracts at rates below current market prices • Implementing other cost reduction initiatives • Volatility in cost and availability of commodities, freight, currency impacts, labor and other component parts • Global supply disruption due to extremely low supply of shipping containers while demand continues to surge • Shipment receiving and unloading backlogs with unprecedented inbound port congestion 100% mitigation of the unfavorable COGS impact in FY22 of: • $55 to $60 million, or • approximately $2.25 to $2.45 of adjusted diluted EPS Expected Outcome • Temporary stop shipment action on certain U.S. Health & Home products, due to ongoing discussion with the U.S. Environment Protection Agency (“EPA”) regar ing packaging claims (not related to product quality, safety or performance): • Water filtration products have resumed shipping • Strongly believe we can likewise address concerns on air and humidification packaging, after which we will work as quickly as operationally possible to restart shipping those as well • Cost reduction actions specifically in the Health & Home segment, including reductions in personnel, marketing and select new product development costs: • Preserving key long-term growth initiatives in Health & Home The impact of the EPA matter on volume and earnings that we expected to be unable to mitigate in FY22 that was included in our July 8, 2021 outlook: • $110 to $135 million in sales revenue • $0.70 to $1.00 in adjusted diluted EPS


 
Fiscal 2022 Outlook: EPA Matter Overshadows Underlying Growth 12 * Core excludes the Personal Care business in Fiscal Years 2021 and 2022. The Company’s consolidated and Core net sales and EPS outlook reflect the following: • the assumption that the severity of the cough/cold/flu season will be in line with pre-COVID historical averages; • the assumption that June 2021 foreign currency exchange rates will remain constant for the remainder of the fiscal year; and • an estimated weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 24.4 million Consolidated Consolidated Growth/(Decline) Core* Growth/(Decline) Implied Core Growth/(Decline) Excluding EPA Matter Health & Home net sales Adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) Core* Beauty net sales Housewares net sales $10.46 - $10.97 (10.2)% - (5.8)% $10.25 - $10.75 (7.0)% - (2.5)% 2.1% - 3.8% Net sales revenue $1.931 - $1.983 BN (8.0)% - (5.5)% 7.0% - 9.0% (27.0)% - (24.0)% 4.2% - 6.3% $1.900 - $1.950 BN (6.0)% - (3.5)% 7.0% - 9.0% (27.0)% - (24.0)% 17.0% - 19.0% 0.7% - 1.9% (11.8)% - (11.6)%


 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) Packaging Compliance Update 13 We have now largely resolved the packaging compliance issues raised by the EPA regarding claims on certain of our air and water filtration products and a limited subset of humidifier products within the Health & Home segment that are sold in the United States. As previously disclosed in our first quarter earnings release, as a result of discussions with the EPA, we made modest changes to labeling claims on our existing water filtration packaging and began shipping limited quantities of water filtration products in July. We expect the shipping volume for these products to continue to increase and a return to more normalized level of shipping activity by the beginning of September as reworked inventory ramps up to demand. With regards to air filtration products, the EPA has approved changes to our packaging. We have begun to implement a repackaging plan and expect to resume shipping of limited quantities of the impacted products by the end of August. As our inventory repackaging ramps up to scale, we expect to return to a more normalized level of shipping activity of air filtration products by the end of our third fiscal quarter. We have also resolved the majority of issues concerning the limited subset of humidifier products but we do not expect this to have a material impact on our consolidated results. The fiscal 2022 annual outlook we provided on July 8, 2021, included an estimated unfavorable net sales impact of $110 to $135 million and an unfavorable adjusted diluted EPS impact of $0.70 to $1.00 related to the EPA matter. This estimated impact was based on an assumption that we would resume shipping for water filtration products at the beginning of our third fiscal quarter. For air filtration products, the low end of our estimated impact assumed a resumption of shipping in the beginning of our fourth fiscal quarter, while the high end of our estimated impact assumed that we would not resume shipping for the duration of the fiscal year. We now expect that the timing of the resolutions with the EPA, as well as the time needed to rework and resume normalized levels of shipping activity, will be favorable to the estimated EPA impacts of $110 million of net sales and $0.70 of adjusted diluted EPS that we included in our July 8, 2021, outlook. We expect to be in a position to provide a full update to our consolidated outlook during our second quarter fiscal 2022 earnings call in early October.
