St. Louis —May 8, 2023—Energizer Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: ENR) today announced results for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“We were pleased to deliver a strong second quarter, with organic growth and gross margin improvement across both of our Battery and Auto Care businesses,” said Mark LaVigne, Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to make significant progress on Project Momentum, and we are beginning to see the benefits to the organization and within our financial results. Importantly, we improved adjusted gross margin by 300 basis points, grew adjusted earnings per share by 36%, and paid down over $100 million of debt in the quarter. While the macro environment remains uncertain, our strategies and investments in the business position us to deliver growth and value creation, and we remain on track to deliver on our outlook for the full year.”

Top-Line Performance

For the quarter, we had Net sales of $684.1 million compared to $685.4 million in the prior year period.

Net sales - FY'23$684.1 (0.2)%
Organic Net sales increased 2.6% primarily due to the following items:

The continued benefit of global pricing actions in both the battery and auto care businesses contributed approximately 13.0% to organic sales.

1) See Press Release attachments and supplemental schedules for additional information, including the GAAP and Non-GAAP reconciliations.




Partially offsetting the increase were volume declines impacting organic revenue by approximately 9.5% due to the impact of higher retail pricing across both battery and auto care as well as general economic conditions impacting the consumer; and
As part of our focus on gross margin restoration, the Company exited some lower margin profile battery customers and products, resulting in approximately 1.0% decline to organic sales.

Gross Margin

Gross margin percentage on a reported basis was 37.0% versus 34.8% in the prior year. Excluding the current year restructuring costs and prior year costs related to exiting the Russian market, adjusted gross margin was 37.9%, up 300 basis points from the prior year adjusted gross margin of 34.9%.(1)

The Gross margin increase was largely driven by the continued benefit of the pricing initiatives, Project Momentum savings of $10.7 million and the benefit of exiting lower margin battery business. These benefits were partially offset by higher operating costs, including raw materials, 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 second quarter was 17.0% of Net sales, or $116.5 million, compared to 17.2%, or $117.6 million in the prior year, excluding the costs to exit the Russian market. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by Project Momentum savings and favorable currency impacts. These declines were partially offset by higher stock compensation expense and factoring fees in the current year.(1)

Advertising and Promotion Expense (A&P)

A&P was 2.7% of net sales for the second fiscal quarter, compared to 2.9% in the prior year or a $1.2 million decrease.

The improvement in Net earnings, Earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter reflects the increase in organic net sales, gross margin improvement driven by increased pricing and Project Momentum initiatives, and decreased A&P and SG&A spending. These increases were partially offset by increased Interest expense and adverse currency movements.

Capital Allocation

Dividend payments in the quarter were approximately $22 million, or $0.30 per common share.

Operating cash flow for the first half of the year was $210.2 million, and free cash flow was $192.2 million, or 13.3% of Net sales.

Debt pay down in the first half of the year was $158.2 million and net debt decreased by $77.7 million. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 5.6 times as of March 31, 2023.

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 due to the currency headwinds we experienced in the first half of the year of approximately $44 million. Currency also negatively impacted pre-tax earnings by approximately $20 million, or $0.22 per share, in the first half of the year. Based on current rates, we anticipate currency impacts on revenues and earnings to be neutral over the remainder of the year relative to fiscal 2022.

Project Momentum remains on track with approximately $20 million of savings delivered in the first half of the year and total project savings of $30 million to $40 million anticipated for the full year. Total one-time project cash costs 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.

Global economic and financial market conditions, including the conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and actions taken by our customers, suppliers, other business partners and governments in markets in which we compete 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.
3




We must successfully manage the demand, supply, and operational challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic and any other disease outbreak, including epidemics, pandemics, or similar widespread public health concerns.
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 currency fluctuations, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
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, our ability to forecast customer demand and our ability to 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.
The Company's future results may be affected by its operational execution, including scenarios where the Company generates fewer productivity improvements than estimated.
If our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets become impaired, we will be required to record impairment charges, which may be significant.
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 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. 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 15, 2022.

ENERGIZER HOLDINGS, INC.
Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
For the Quarter and Six Months Ended March 31, 2023
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, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, and the costs of exiting the Russian market. 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/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, other items, net, the charges related to acquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, an acquisition earn out, and the costs of exiting the Russian market 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, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, and the costs of exiting the Russian market.

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, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, and the costs of exiting the Russian market, 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 and adjusted Other items, net are also supplemental non-GAAP measure disclosures. These measures exclude the impact of costs related to acquisition and integration, restructuring charges, an acquisition earn out, and the costs of exiting the Russian market.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net earnings before income tax provision, interest, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment of debt, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes the impact of the costs related to restructuring, exiting the Russian market, gains on finance lease termination, the costs of the flooding of our manufacturing facility in Brazil, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, 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.
