SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2022

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows of The Clorox Company and its controlled subsidiaries (the Company or Clorox) for the periods presented. However, the financial results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year or for any other future period.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) have been omitted or condensed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The information in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, which includes a complete set of footnote disclosures, including the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Restructuring Liabilities

The Company incurs restructuring costs in connection with workforce reductions; consolidation or closure of a facility; sale or termination of a line of business; and other actions. Such costs include employee termination benefits (one-time arrangements and benefits attributable to prior service), termination of contractual obligations, non-cash asset charges and other direct incremental costs.

The Company records employee termination liabilities once they are both probable and estimable for severance provided under the Company’s existing severance policy. Employee termination liabilities outside of the Company’s existing severance policy are recognized at the time relevant employees are notified, unless the employees will be retained to render service beyond a minimum retention period for transition purposes, in which case the liability is recognized ratably over the future service period. Other costs associated with a restructuring plan or exit or disposal activities, such as consulting and professional fees, facility exit costs, employee relocation, outplacement costs, accelerated depreciation or asset impairments associated with a restructuring plan, are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred or the asset is impaired.
