(NYSE: ENR) today announced results for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025. "Three years ago, we launched Project Momentum to restore margins, increase our operational agility, and invest in growth. Our performance this quarter illustrates the benefits of those efforts as we delivered organic top-line growth, strong gross margins and robust earnings. In addition, our business has been further strengthened by our qualification for production credits as a result of our investments and focus on US manufacturing capabilities." said Mark LaVigne, Chief Executive Officer. "We are increasing our outlook to reflect the higher level of earnings generated by pricing, tariff mitigation efforts and the inclusion of production credits. As we look ahead, we are confident in our ability to generate ongoing earnings growth, creating long-term value for our shareholders." Top-Line Performance For the quarter, we had Net sales of $725.3 million compared to $701.4 million in the prior year period. Third Quarter % Chg Net sales - FY'24 $ 701.4 Organic 0.8 0.1 % Acquisition impact 20.8 3.0 % Change in hyperinflationary markets 1.4 0.2 % Impact of currency 0.9 0.1 % Net sales - FY'25 $ 725.3 3.4 % Organic Net sales increased 0.1% primarily due to the following items: Volumes grew 1.7% in the quarter, driven primarily by new and expanded distribution in Battery & Lights; and Planned strategic pricing and promotional investments of 1.6% partially offset the growth in volume. The Advanced Power Solutions NV (APS NV) acquisition completed on May 2, 2025 contributed $20.8 million to Net sales. Gross Margin Gross margin percentage on a reported basis was 55.1% versus 39.5% in the prior year. During the quarter, the Company recorded an estimated $112.4 million of production credits related to battery production in our U.S. facilities. The amount related to FY25 production is an estimated $33.9 million and an additional estimated $78.5 million was recorded for production retroactive to the start of the production credit period of January 1, 2023. Excluding the estimated FY23 & FY24 production credits of $78.5 million recorded in the current quarter, restructuring costs in the current and prior year of $2.9 million and $13.4 million, respectively, network transition costs of $0.9 million in the current year, and acquisition and integration costs of $0.2 million in the prior year, Adjusted Gross margin was 44.8% compared to 41.5% in the prior year, an increase of 330 basis points.(1) Third Quarter Gross margin - FY'24 Reported 39.5 % Prior year impact of restructuring and integration costs 2.0 % Gross margin - FY'24 Adjusted(1) 41.5 % FY25 production credits 4.8 % Project Momentum initiatives 1.8 % Product cost impacts (1.5) % Pricing (1.0) % Acquisition impact (0.5) % Currency impacts, including hyperinflationary markets (0.3) % Gross margin - FY'25 Adjusted(1) 44.8 % Current year impact of restructuring, network transition costs and FY23 & FY24 production credits 10.3 % Gross margin - FY'25 Reported 55.1 % Adjusted Gross margin improvement benefited from the estimated FY25 production credits of $33.9 million as well as Project Momentum which delivered savings of approximately $12 million in the quarter. These benefits were partially offset by product cost impacts from increased freight and warehousing, production inefficiencies associated with rebalancing our network, planned strategic pricing and promotional investments noted above, and a slightly lower margin on the APS NV business.(1) Selling, General and Administrative Expense (SG&A) SG&A, excluding restructuring, acquisition costs and litigation matters, was 17.0% of Net sales for the third quarter, or $123.6 million, compared to 16.9%, or $118.4 million in the prior year. The year-over-year dollar increase was primarily driven by increased SG&A from the APS NV business of $4.5 million, investment in digital transformation and growth initiatives, as well as increased legal fees. The increase was partially offset by Project Momentum savings of approximately $3 million in the quarter.(1) Advertising and Promotion Expense (A&P) A&P expense increased $5.5 million for the third fiscal quarter to 6.0% of Net sales, compared to 5.4% in the prior year. The dollar increase in A&P was primarily driven by investment in the launch of our Podium Series. Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA Third Quarter (In millions, except per share data) 2025 2024 Net earnings/(loss) $ 153.5 $ (43.8) Diluted net earnings/(loss) per common share $ 2.13 $ (0.61) Adjusted Net earnings(1) $ 81.5 $ 57.4 Adjusted Diluted net earnings per common share(1) $ 1.13 $ 0.79 Adjusted EBITDA(1) $ 171.4 $ 149.7 Currency neutral Adjusted Diluted net earnings per common share(1) $ 1.16 Currency neutral Adjusted EBITDA(1) $ 173.9 Net earnings, Earnings per share, Adjusted Earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA were positively impacted in the quarter by the production credits and savings from Project Momentum. These improvements were offset by higher A&P and SG&A spend and currency impacts compared to the prior year. The prior year net loss was driven by the $110.6 million non-cash pre-tax impairment charge recorded on the Company's indefinite lived intangibles. Free cash flow and Capital allocation Operating cash flow for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 was $85.6 million, and Free cash flow was $16.5 million, or approximately 1% of Net sales. The Company acquired APS NV on May 2, 2025, and the initial cash consideration transferred was $15.2 million. The Company repurchased 2.8 million shares of common stock for $62.6 million, or $22.40 per share during the third quarter. Subsequent to the quarter, the Company repurchased an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock at $22.49 per share. Dividend payments in the quarter were approximately $21 million, or $0.30 per common share. Financial Outlook and Assumptions for Fiscal Year 2025(1) For fiscal 2025, we now expect Net sales growth in the range of 1% to 3%, inclusive of $40 to $50 million of Net Sales from the recently acquired APS NV business. We continue to expect Organic Net sales in the range of flat to +2%. We increased our fiscal 2025 guidance for Adjusted Earnings Per Share to $3.55 to $3.65. Adjusted EBITDA is now expected in the range of $630 to $640 million, including an estimated benefit of $40 to $45 million from production credits, prior to reinvestment. For the fourth quarter, we expect reported Net Sales growth of 2% to 4% and Organic Net Sales in the range of flat to down 2%. We expect fourth quarter gross margin to be impacted by approximately $20 million of costs which we believe are transitory in nature. These costs include tariffs that were levied earlier or at higher than current rates, and short term operational inefficiencies as we strategically realign and invest in our network. Adjusted Earnings Per Share is expected in the range of $1.05 to $1.15, including an estimated benefit of $5 to 10 million from production credits, prior to reinvestment.

This document contains both historical and forward-looking statements. Forward-looking 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 sales, gross margins, costs, earnings, cash flows, tax rates and performance of the Company. These statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "expectation," "anticipate," "may," "could," "will," "intend," "belief," "estimate," "plan," "target," "predict," "likely," "should," "forecast," "outlook," or other similar words or phrases. 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. The forward-looking statements included in this document are only made as of the date of this document and we disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. Numerous factors could cause our actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: Global economic and financial market conditions beyond our control might materially and negatively impact us. Competition in our product categories might hinder our ability to execute our business strategy, achieve profitability, or maintain relationships with existing customers. Changes in the retail environment and consumer preferences could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Loss or impairment of the reputation of our Company or our leading brands or failure of our marketing plans could have an adverse effect on our business. Loss of any of our principal customers could significantly decrease our sales and profitability. Our ability to meet our growth targets depends on successful product, marketing and operations innovation and successful responses to competitive innovation and changing consumer habits. We are subject to risks related to our international operations, including tariff and currency fluctuations, which could adversely affect our results of operations. We must successfully manage the demand, supply, and operational challenges brought on by any disease outbreak, including epidemics, pandemics, or similar widespread public health concerns. If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, competitors may manufacture and market similar products, which could adversely affect our market share and results of operations. Changes in production costs, including raw material prices and transportation costs, from inflation or otherwise, have adversely affected, and in the future could erode, our profit margins and negatively impact operating results. Our reliance on certain significant suppliers subjects us to numerous risks, including possible interruptions in supply, which could adversely affect our business. Our business is vulnerable to the availability of raw materials, as well as our ability to forecast customer demand and manage production capacity. The manufacturing facilities, supply channels or other business operations of the Company and our suppliers may be subject to disruption from events beyond our control. Our future results may be affected by our operational execution, including our ability to achieve cost savings as a result of any current or future restructuring efforts. If our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets become impaired, we will be required to record impairment charges, which may be significant. Sales of certain of our products are seasonal and adverse weather conditions during our peak selling seasons for certain auto care products could have a material adverse effect. A failure of a key information technology system could adversely impact our ability to conduct business. We rely significantly on information technology and any inadequacy, interruption, theft or loss of data, malicious attack, integration failure, failure to maintain the security, confidentiality or privacy of sensitive data residing on our systems or other security failure of that technology could harm our ability to effectively operate our business and damage the reputation of our brands. We may not be able to attract, retain and develop key employees, as well as effectively manage human capital resources. We have significant debt obligations that could adversely affect our business. Our credit ratings are important to our cost of capital. We may experience losses or be subject to increased funding and expenses related to our pension plans. The estimates and assumptions on which our financial projections are based may prove to be inaccurate, which may cause our actual results to materially differ from our projections, which may adversely affect our future profitability, cash flows and stock price. If we pursue strategic acquisitions, divestitures or joint ventures, we might experience operating difficulties, dilution, and other consequences that may harm our business, financial condition, and operating results, and we may not be able to successfully consummate favorable transactions or successfully integrate acquired businesses. Our business involves the potential for product liability claims, labeling claims, commercial claims and other legal claims against us, which could affect our results of operations and financial condition and result in product recalls or withdrawals. Our business is subject to increasing government regulations in both the U.S. and abroad that could impose material costs. Increased focus by governmental and non-governmental organizations, customers, consumers and shareholders on environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, including those related to sustainability and climate change, may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and damage our reputation. We are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may expose us to significant liabilities and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Section 45X of the Internal Revenue Code contains production tax credits for certain battery components. Our ability to benefit from Section 45X production tax credits is not guaranteed and is dependent upon the federal government's ongoing implementation, guidance, regulations, or rulemakings. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we consider immaterial could affect the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. The list of factors above is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. Additional risks and uncertainties include those detailed from time to time in our publicly filed documents, including those described under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 19, 2024 and in our Form 10-Q filed May 6, 2025.

ENERGIZER HOLDINGS, INC.Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP MeasuresFor the Quarter and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful comparisons to the corresponding historical or future period, and are used for management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, impairment of intangible assets, a litigation matter, the loss on extinguishment/modification of debt and the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform. In addition, these measures help investors to analyze year over year comparability when excluding currency fluctuations as well as other Company initiatives that are not on-going. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are an enhancement to assist investors in understanding our business and in performing analysis consistent with financial models developed by research analysts. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in methods and in the items being adjusted. We provide the following non-GAAP measures and calculations, as well as the corresponding reconciliation to the closest GAAP measure in the following supplemental schedules: Segment Profit. This amount represents the operations of our two reportable segments including allocations for shared support functions. General corporate and other expenses, amortization expense, interest expense, loss on extinguishment/modification of debt, other items, net, restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, impairment of intangible assets and a litigation matter have all been excluded from segment profit. Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings per Common Share (EPS). These measures exclude the impact of restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, costs related to acquisition and integration, FY23 & FY24 production credits, impairment of intangible assets, a litigation matter, the loss on extinguishment/modification of debt and the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform. Adjusted EPS Excluding Production Credits further excludes the benefit of the FY25 production credits, net of related compensation costs and tax impacts. Non-GAAP Tax Rate. This is the tax rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, costs related to acquisition and integration, FY23 & FY24 production credits, impairment of intangible assets, a litigation matter, the loss on extinguishment/modification of debt, and the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform, as well as the related tax impact for these items, calculated utilizing the statutory rate for where the impact was incurred. Organic. This is the non-GAAP financial measurement of the change in revenue or segment profit that excludes or otherwise adjusts for acquisition impact, the change in hyperinflationary markets and impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below: Acquisition Impact. The Company completed the Advanced Power Solutions NV acquisition on May 2, 2025. These adjustments include the impact of the operations associated with the acquired branded battery business. The Company will be working to transition from these branded business to legacy brands by December 31, 2025. This does not include the impact of acquisition and integration costs associated with this acquisition. Change in hyperinflationary markets. The Company is presenting separately all changes in sales and segment profit from our Egypt and Argentina affiliates due to the designation of the economies as highly inflationary as of October 1, 2024 and July 1, 2018, respectively. Impact of currency. The Company evaluates the operating performance of our Company on a currency neutral basis. The Impact of Currency is the change in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year on reported results, which is calculated by comparing the value of current year foreign operations at the current period USD exchange rate versus the value of current year foreign operations at the prior period USD exchange rate. The impact of currency also includes (gains)/losses of currency hedging programs, and it excludes hyperinflationary markets. Adjusted Comparisons. Detail for Adjusted Gross profit, Adjusted Gross margin, adjusted SG&A and adjusted SG&A as percent of Net sales and Adjusted Other items, net are also supplemental non-GAAP measure disclosures. These measures exclude the impact of restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter and the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as Net earnings before Income tax provision, Interest expense, the Loss on extinguishment/modification of debt, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the impact of the costs related to restructuring, network transition costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform, impairment of intangible assets, acquisition and integration costs, and share based payments. Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures, net of the proceeds from asset sales. Net Debt. Net Debt is defined as total Company debt, less Cash and cash equivalents. Currency-neutral. Currency-neutral excludes the Impact of currency as defined above on key measures. Hyper inflationary markets are excluded from this calculation. Energizer Holdings, Inc.
