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.

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 2019 financial outlook, can be found in the Company’s earnings releases for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and full year fiscal 2018. 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 the third quarter of the 2019 fiscal year and other materials that can be found on its Investor Relations website at http://ir.edgewell.com.
