This presentation and some of our comments contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Edgewell Personal Care Company (“Edgewell”, “we” or “the Company”) or any of our businesses. These statements are not based on historical facts, but instead reflect our expectations, estimates, or projections concerning future results or events, including, without limitation, the future earnings and performance of the Company, the anticipated benefits of the proposed acquisition of Harry’s, and the timing of consummation of such acquisition. These statements are not guarantees of performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. We cannot assure you that any of our expectations, estimates or projections will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “expectation,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “belief,” “estimate,” “plan,” “target,” “predict,” “likely,” “will,” “should,” “forecast,” “outlook,” or other similar words or phrases and relate, in this presentation, without limitation, to: statements, beliefs, projections, and expectations regarding the proposed acquisition of Harry’s; the timing for completion of the transaction; the ability of the Company to close the transaction, on the anticipated terms or at all; key terms and anticipated benefits of the transaction; availability and terms of financing related to the transaction; and the transaction’s impact on the Company’s business and financial results, including its go-forward management vision and strategy. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we presently consider immaterial could significantly affect the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the definitive agreement to acquire Harry’s, Inc.; the risk that the necessary regulatory approvals may not be obtained or may be delayed or obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the risk that the transaction will not be consummated in a timely manner; the risk that the Company will experience unanticipated delays or difficulties and transaction costs in consummating the transaction; the risk that any of the closing conditions to the transaction may not be satisfied in a timely manner or at all; the risk related to disruption from the transaction and the related diverting of management’s attention making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships; the failure to realize the benefits expected from the transaction or other related strategic initiatives; the impact of the transaction on the Company’s share price and market volatility; the effect of the announcement of the transaction on the ability of the Company to retain customers and suppliers, retain or hire key personnel, and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and lenders; the effect of the transaction or the announcement and completion of related transactions on the Company’s operating results and businesses generally; the impact of any future acquisitions or additional divestitures, restructurings, refinancings, and other unusual items, including the Company's ability to raise or retire debt or equity and to integrate and obtain the anticipated benefits, results and/or synergies from these items or other related strategic initiatives; and the possibility of more attractive strategic options arising in the future. Additional information concerning these and other factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary is, or will be, included in the Company’s periodic and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Neither Edgewell nor any of its affiliates, representatives or advisors assumes any responsibility for, or makes any representation or warranty (express or implied) as to, the reasonableness, completeness, accuracy or reliability of the estimates and other information contained herein, which speak only as of the date identified on the cover page of this presentation. Edgewell and its affiliates, representatives and advisors expressly disclaim any and all liability based, in whole or in part, on such information, errors therein or omissions therefrom. Neither Edgewell nor any of its affiliates, representatives or advisors intends to update or otherwise revise the estimates and other information contained herein to reflect circumstances existing after the date identified on the cover page of this presentation, including to reflect the occurrence of future events even if any or all of the assumptions, judgments and estimates on which the information contained herein is based change or are shown to be in error. Industry, market and competitive position data described in this presentation were obtained from the Company’s own internal estimates and research, as well as from industry and general publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. While the Company believes its internal estimates and research are reliable and the market definitions are appropriate, such estimates, research and definitions have not been verified by any independent source. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this data. This presentation includes Non-GAAP financial measures, as defined under SEC rules. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this presentation. While the Company reports financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), this discussion also includes Non-GAAP measures. These Non-GAAP measures are referred to as “adjusted,” “organic” or “underlying” and exclude items such as impairment charges, costs associated with the acquisition and integration of Jack Black, L.L.C. (“Jack Black”), costs associated with the acquisition and integration of Harry’s, restructuring charges and amortization of intangibles. Reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures, including reconciliations of measures related to the Company’s fiscal 2020 financial outlook, can be found in the Company’s earnings releases for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and full year fiscal 2019. This Non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses this Non-GAAP information internally to make operating decisions and believes it is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of ongoing operating results. The information can also be used to perform analysis and to better identify operating trends that may otherwise be masked or distorted by the types of items that are excluded. This Non-GAAP information is a component in determining management’s incentive compensation. Finally, the Company believes this information provides a higher degree of transparency. For definitions of these terms and reconciliations to GAAP measures, refer to the Company’s earnings release for fiscal year 2019 and other materials that can be found on its Investor Relations website at http://ir.edgewell.com. 1
