(2)In determining the “compensation actually paid” to our NEOs, we are required to make various adjustments to amounts that have been previously reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) in previous years, as the SEC’s required valuation methods for this disclosure differ from those required in the SCT. The table below provides the adjustments to the SCT total compensation made to arrive at the compensation actually paid for the PEO and the average for Non-PEO NEOs. The amounts below for performance shares assume that the targeted award is earned, with actual amounts used for the year in which the award vests.

Fiscal 2024 also includes RSUs and restricted stock awards granted in this year. Amounts are computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and do not correspond to the actual value that will be realized.

(b) For each fiscal year includes change in fair value for performance share awards, restricted stock awards and RSU awards granted in prior fiscal years that remain outstanding and unvested at the end of that year.

(c) For each fiscal year includes change in fair value for performance shares awards earned for the performance period ending on September 30 of that fiscal year and restricted stock that vested that year, as of the vesting date.

(f) Includes for each fiscal year, the prior service cost, calculated as the entire cost of benefits granted (or credit for benefits reduced) in a plan amendment (or initiation) during the covered fiscal year that are attributed by the benefit formula to services rendered in periods prior to the amendment (or initiation).

(4) For each fiscal year, consists of net earnings as disclosed in our annual financial statements, which includes the impact of discontinued operations.

In 2023, the discontinued operations impact included the significant gains from the sale of the Company’s majority interest in its Climate Technologies business and the sale of its InSinkErator business. Earnings from continuing operations for each year were: 2024-$1,618, 2023-$2,254, 2022-$1,886 and 2021-$1,414.
