Energizer Holdings, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2023 First Quarter Results
•Operating cash flow of $161.0 million and Free cash flow of nearly 20% of Net Sales driven by strong operating results and Project Momentum initiatives.1
•Debt pay down of over $50 million in the first quarter and over $50 million subsequent to quarter-end.
•Reaffirms fiscal year outlook for Net sales, Adjusted earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA.1
St. Louis —February 6, 2023—Energizer Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ENR) today announced results for the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022.
“During the critical holiday season, we continued to deliver strong operating results while advancing our Project Momentum initiatives,” said Mark LaVigne, Chief Executive Officer. “Our focused efforts behind restoring gross margins and reducing working capital drove free cash flow of nearly 20% of net sales, enabling us to pay down over $100 million in debt in the first four months of the fiscal year. Our categories remain strong and we believe our brands continue to be chosen by consumers, which is particularly important in today’s evolving macroeconomic environment. We continue to execute on our strategic priorities, and are confident in our ability to deliver on our current year plans as well as our long-term objectives.”
Top-Line Performance
For the quarter, we had Net sales of $765.1 million compared to $846.3 million in the prior year period.

| Net sales - FY'23 | $ | 765.1 | | | (9.6) | % | | | | | | | | |
•Organic Net sales declined 5.4% primarily due to the following items:
•Approximately 13.5% of the organic decline was due to lower volumes driven by the timing of holiday orders in the battery business, and category declines from higher retail pricing and retailer inventory management across both battery and auto care; and
•As part of our focus on gross margin restoration, the Company exited some lower margin profile battery customers and products resulting in approximately 1.5% decline to organic sales.
•Partially offsetting these declines was the continued benefit of global pricing actions in both the battery and auto care businesses which contributed approximately 9.5% to organic sales.

Gross Margin
Gross margin percentage on a reported basis was 39.0% versus 36.8% in the prior year. Excluding the current year restructuring costs and prior year costs related to acquisition and integration, adjusted gross margin was 39.0%, up 150 basis points from the prior year adjusted gross margin of 37.5%, and up 280 basis points from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.(1)

| First Quarter | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
Gross margin - FY'22 Reported | 36.8 | % | | | | | | |
| Prior year impact of Acquisition and integration costs | 0.7 | % | | | | | | |
Gross margin - FY'22 Adjusted(1) | 37.5 | % | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| Pricing | 5.5 | % | | | | | | |
| Project Momentum continuous improvement initiatives | 0.8 | % | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | |
| Currency impact and other | (0.9) | % | | | | | | |
Gross margin - FY'23 Reported and Adjusted(1) | 39.0 | % | | | | | | |
The Gross margin increase was largely driven by the continued benefit of the pricing initiatives and Project Momentum savings of $6.5 million as well as the positive impact from exiting lower margin businesses. These benefits were partially offset by higher operating costs, including material and ocean freight costs, consistent with ongoing inflationary trends, as well as adverse currency impacts.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense (SG&A)
SG&A, excluding restructuring costs, for the first quarter was 14.9% of Net sales, or $114.1 million, compared to 13.2%, or $111.6 million in the prior year excluding acquisition and integration costs and acquisition earn out. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher stock compensation amortization, factoring fees and increased depreciation expense from our digital transformation initiatives. These increases were partially offset by Project Momentum savings and favorable currency impacts.(1)
Advertising and Promotion Expense (A&P)
A&P was 7.0% of net sales for the first fiscal quarter, compared to 6.1% in the prior year or a $1.7 million increase due to planned brand support during the holiday season.

Currency neutral Adjusted EBITDA(1) | $ | 155.6 | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
The changes in operating results for the quarter reflect the decline in organic net sales, increased A&P and SG&A spending and adverse currency movements. These declines were partially offset by Project Momentum savings.
Reported and Adjusted earnings per share were also impacted by the increase of interest expense due to higher interest rates compared to prior year.
Capital Allocation
•Dividend payments in the quarter of approximately $21.8 million, or $0.30 per common share.
•Operating cash flow for the first fiscal quarter was $161.0 million, and free cash flow was $152.2 million, or approximately 20% of Net sales.
•Debt pay down in the quarter was $55.7 million and net debt decreased by $74.2 million. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 5.9 times as of December 31, 2022.
•Subsequent to quarter end, the Company paid down an additional $53 million of term loan debt.
Financial Outlook and Assumptions for Fiscal Year 2023(1)
We are maintaining our previously communicated full year outlook, with organic revenue expected to increase low single digits, Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $585 million to $615 million, and Adjusted earnings per share in the range of $3.00 to $3.30. We still expect low single digit declines for reported revenues with currency headwinds of approximately $50 million and anticipate negative currency headwinds on pre-tax earnings of approximately $20 million and $0.23 per share, based on current rates.
Project Momentum remains on track with approximately $7 million of savings delivered in the current quarter and total project savings of $30 million to $40 million anticipated for the full year. Total one-time project expenses for the current year are expected to be in the range of $25 million to $35 million and capital expenditures for the program this year are expected to be $15 million to $20 million, which is largely incorporated into our annual capital budget expectations of 2% of net sales. We remain on track to deliver our previously reported total savings and one-time costs over the life of the program.

•We have significant debt obligations that could adversely affect our business and our ability to meet our obligations.
•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.
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.

Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
For the Quarter Ended December 31, 2022
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. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as restructuring charges, acquisition and integration costs, an acquisition earn out and the gain on extinguishment of debt. 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, gain on extinguishment of debt, other items, net, the charges related to acquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, and an acquisition earn out 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 the costs related to acquisition and integration, restructuring costs, an acquisition earn out and the gain on extinguishment of debt.
Non-GAAP Tax Rate. This is the tax rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of acquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, an acquisition earn out and the gain on extinguishment of debt, 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 the change in Russia and Argentina operations and impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below:
Change in Russia Operations. The Company exited the Russian market in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 due to the increased global and economic and political uncertainty resulting from the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. This adjusts for the change in Russian sales and segment profit from the prior year post exit.
Change in Argentina Operations. The Company is presenting separately all changes in sales and segment profit from our Argentina affiliate due to the designation of the economy as highly inflationary as of July 1, 2018.
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 hyper-inflationary markets.
Adjusted Comparisons. Detail for adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted SG&A and adjusted SG&A as percent of sales are also supplemental non-GAAP measure disclosures. These measures exclude the impact of costs related to acquisition and integration and an acquisition earn out.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net earnings before income tax provision, interest, the gain on extinguishment of debt, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the impact of the costs related to acquisition and integration, restructuring costs, acquisition earn out, 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.
