The Procter & Gamble Company Regulation G Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

The following provides definitions of the non-GAAP measures used in Procter & Gamble's July 28, 2023, earnings call, associated slides and other materials and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure. We believe that these measures provide useful perspective on underlying business trends (i.e., trends excluding non-recurring or unusual items) and results and provide a supplemental measure of year-on-year results.

The non-GAAP measures described below are used by Management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for business strategy purposes. These measures may be useful to investors, as they provide supplemental information about business performance and provide investors a view of our business results through the eyes of Management. Certain of these measures are also used to evaluate senior management and are a factor in determining their at-risk compensation.

These non-GAAP measures are not intended to be considered by the user in place of the related GAAP measure, but rather as supplemental information to our business results. These non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items or events being adjusted.

The Company is not able to reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP cash flow and effective tax rate measures because the Company cannot predict the timing and amounts of discrete items such as acquisition and divestitures, which could significantly impact GAAP results.

The following measures are provided:
1.
Organic sales growth — page 3
2.
Core EPS and currency-neutral Core EPS — page 4
3.
Core gross margin and currency-neutral Core gross margin — page 6
4.
Core operating margin and currency-neutral Core operating margin — page 6
5.
Adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow productivity — page 7

Organic sales growth: Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of the July 1, 2018, adoption of the new accounting standard for “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange from year-over-year comparisons. We believe this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. This measure is used in assessing the achievement of management goals for at-risk compensation.

Core EPS and currency-neutral Core EPS: Core earnings per share, or Core EPS, is a measure of the Company's diluted net earnings per common share from continuing operations excluding items that are not judged by management to be part of the Company’s sustainable results or trends. Management views this non-GAAP measure as a useful supplemental measure of Company performance over time. This measure is also used in assessing the achievement of management goals for at-risk compensation. Currency-neutral Core EPS is a measure of the Company's Core EPS excluding the incremental current year impact of foreign exchange.

The Core earnings measures included in the following reconciliation tables refer to the equivalent GAAP measures adjusted as applicable for the following:
•
Charges for early debt extinguishment: During fiscals 2021, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded after-tax charges due to the early extinguishment of certain long-term debt. These charges represent the difference between the reacquisition price and the par value of the debt extinguished.
•
Incremental Restructuring: The Company has historically had an ongoing restructuring program with annual spending in the range of $250 to $500 million before tax. Starting in 2012 through fiscal 2020, the Company had a strategic productivity and cost savings initiative that resulted in incremental restructuring charges. The adjustment to Core earnings includes only the restructuring costs above the normal recurring level of restructuring costs.
•
Gain on Dissolution of the PGT Healthcare Partnership: The Company dissolved our PGT Healthcare partnership, a venture between the Company and Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries, Ltd (Teva) in the OTC consumer healthcare business, during fiscal 2019. The transaction was accounted for as a sale of the Teva portion of the PGT business; the Company recognized an after-tax gain on the dissolution.
•
Shave Care Impairment: In fiscal 2019, the Company recognized a one-time, non-cash, after-tax charge of $8.0 billion to adjust the carrying value of the Shave Care reporting unit. This was comprised of a before- and after-tax impairment charge of $6.8 billion related to goodwill and an after-tax impairment charge of $1.2 billion to reduce the carrying value of the Gillette indefinite-lived intangible asset.
•
Anti-Dilutive Impacts: The Shave Care impairment charges caused certain equity instruments that are normally dilutive (and hence normally assumed converted or exercised for the purposes of determining diluted net earnings per common share) to be anti-dilutive. Accordingly for U.S. GAAP diluted net earnings per common share, the instruments were not assumed to be converted or exercised. Specifically, in fiscal 2019, certain of our outstanding preferred shares and share-based equity awards were not included in the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. As a result of the non-GAAP Shave Care impairment adjustment, these instruments were dilutive for non-GAAP earnings per share.
•
Transitional Impacts of the U.S. Tax Act: The U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Act”) in December 2017. This resulted in a net charge for the fiscal year 2018. The adjustment to core earnings includes only this transitional impact. It does not include the ongoing impacts of the lower U.S. statutory rate on pre-tax earnings.
•
Venezuela B/S remeasurement & devaluation impacts: Venezuela is a highly inflationary economy under U.S. GAAP. Prior to deconsolidation, the government enacted episodic changes to currency exchange mechanisms and rates, which resulted in currency remeasurement charges for non-dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities held by our Venezuelan subsidiaries in fiscal 2015.
•
Charges for Certain European legal matters: Several countries in Europe issued separate complaints alleging that the Company, along with several other companies, engaged in violations of competition laws in prior periods. In fiscal 2015, the Company incurred after-tax charges of $11 million to adjust legal reserves related to these matters.
•
Venezuela deconsolidation charges: For accounting purposes, evolving conditions resulted in a lack of control over our Venezuelan subsidiaries. Therefore, in accordance with the applicable accounting standards for consolidation, effective June 30, 2015, we deconsolidated our Venezuelan subsidiaries and began accounting for our investment in those subsidiaries using the cost method of accounting. The charge was incurred to write off our net assets related to Venezuela.

We do not view the above items to be part of our sustainable results, and their exclusion from core earnings measures provides a more comparable measure of year-on-year results. These items are also excluded when evaluating senior management in determining their at-risk compensation.

Core gross margin and currency-neutral Core gross margin: Core gross margin is a measure of the Company's gross margin adjusted for items as indicated. Currency-neutral Core gross margin is a measure of the Company's Core gross margin excluding the incremental current year impact of foreign exchange.

Core operating margin and currency-neutral Core operating margin: Core operating margin is a measure of the Company's operating margin adjusted for items as indicated. Currency-neutral Core operating margin is a measure of the Company’s Core operating margin excluding the incremental current year impact of foreign exchange.

Adjusted free cash flow: Adjusted free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital spending and adjusted for certain other items as indicated. Adjusted free cash flow represents the cash that the Company is able to generate after taking into account planned maintenance and asset expansion. Management views adjusted free cash flow as an important measure because it is one factor used in determining the amount of cash available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and other discretionary investment.

Adjusted free cash flow productivity: Adjusted free cash flow productivity is defined as the ratio of adjusted free cash flow to net earnings adjusted as indicated. Management views adjusted free cash flow productivity as a useful measure to help investors understand P&G’s ability to generate cash. This measure is used by management in making operating decisions, allocating financial resources and for budget planning purposes.
