MASCO CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

A. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position at June 30, 2023, our results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States of America.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024 and will be adopted at that time. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. ASU 2023-02 is effective for annual periods on either a modified retrospective or retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2024, and we are currently reviewing the provisions of this standard and the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations.

B. REVENUE

Our revenues are derived from sales to customers in North America and Internationally, principally Europe. Net sales from these geographic markets, by segment, were as follows, in millions:

F. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.

All outstanding payments owed under the program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $64 million and $50 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $20 million and $29 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

G. DEBT

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders.

MASCO CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

G. DEBT (Concluded)

The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility available to us and one of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, European euros, British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars and certain other currencies for revolving credit loans, swingline loans and letters of credit. Borrowings under the revolving credit loans denominated in any agreed upon currency other than U.S. dollars are limited to the equivalent of $500 million. We can also borrow swingline loans up to $125 million and obtain letters of credit of up to $25 million. Outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement reduce our borrowing capacity and we had no outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023.

The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0.

In order for us to borrow under the 2022 Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in our covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants described above, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, and requirements relating to legal compliance, maintenance of our properties and insurance) and our representations and warranties in the 2022 Credit Agreement must be true in all material respects on the date of borrowing (i.e., principally no material adverse change or litigation likely to result in a material adverse change, since December 31, 2021, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance, and no material tax deficiency). We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2023. 

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.

On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contain no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023.

Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of our short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues, which are Level 1 inputs. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at June 30, 2023 was approximately $2.6 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.0 billion. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at December 31, 2022 was approximately $2.7 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.2 billion.

J. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate was 26 percent and 24 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and was 26 percent and 25 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was favorably impacted by $12 million and $10 million of income tax benefits, respectively. For both periods, the income tax benefits primarily resulted from a reduction in the liability for uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of statutes of limitation and stock-based compensation.

K. INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used in the computations of basic and diluted income per common share were as follows, in millions:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we allocated dividends and undistributed earnings to the unvested restricted stock awards.

The following stock options, restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect, in thousands:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,

Number of stock options	897	670	843	599
Number of restricted stock units	113	249	202	17
Number of performance restricted stock units	15	—	15	—

Effective October 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, for retirement, of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock in open-market transactions or otherwise, replacing the previous Board of Directors authorization established in 2021. We repurchased and retired approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2023 for approximately $81 million. This included 0.2 million shares to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in the six months ended June 30, 2023. At June 30, 2023, we had approximately $1.9 billion remaining under the 2022 authorization.

We have declared and paid cash dividends per common share of $0.285 and $0.570 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $0.280 and $0.560 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

L. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation.    We are involved in claims and litigation, including class actions, mass torts and regulatory proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. The types of matters may include, among others: advertising, competition, contract, data privacy, employment, environmental, insurance coverage, intellectual property, personal injury, product compliance, product liability, securities and warranty. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters. We are also subject to product safety regulations, product recalls and direct claims for product liabilities. We believe the likelihood that the outcome of these claims, litigation and product safety matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could, in the future, incur judgments or penalties, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

Warranty.    Changes in our warranty liability were as follows, in millions:

On July 21, 2023, we entered into an agreement to acquire all of the share capital of Sauna360 Group Oy (“Sauna360”) for an estimated €125 million, net of cash acquired and subject to customary closing adjustments. Sauna360 has a portfolio of products that includes traditional, infrared, and wood-burning saunas as well as steam showers. The acquisition is expected to close during the third quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory approval. Upon closing, this business will be reported within the Plumbing Products segment.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Due to changing market conditions, we are experiencing, and may continue to experience, lower market demand for our products. We have been experiencing, and may continue to experience, elevated commodity and other input costs, as well as employee-related cost inflation. While still elevated, we have recently seen some reduction of certain costs, and we aim to offset the potential unfavorable impact of our costs and lower demand for our products with productivity improvement, pricing, and other initiatives.

We continue to execute our strategies of leveraging our strong brand portfolio, industry-leading positions and the Masco Operating System, our methodology to drive growth and productivity, to create long-term shareholder value. We remain confident in the fundamentals of our business and long-term strategy. We believe that our strong financial position and cash flow generation, together with our investments in our industry-leading branded building products, our continued focus on innovation and disciplined capital allocation, will allow us to drive long-term growth and create value for our shareholders.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 AND THE FIRST SIX MONTHS 2023 VERSUS

SECOND QUARTER 2022 AND THE FIRST SIX MONTHS 2022

Consolidated Results of Operations

We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). However, we believe that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results under GAAP.

The following discussion of consolidated results of operations refers to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022.

SALES AND OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Capital Structure

We had cash and cash investments of approximately $380 million and $452 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our cash and cash investments consist of overnight interest bearing money market demand accounts, time deposit accounts, and money market mutual funds containing government securities and treasury obligations. While we attempt to diversify these investments in a prudent manner to minimize risk, it is possible that future changes in the financial markets could affect the security or availability of these investments. Of the cash and cash investments we held at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $252 million and $321 million, respectively, was held in our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed for our operations in the U.S., their repatriation into the U.S. would not result in significant additional U.S. income tax or foreign withholding tax, as we have recorded such taxes on substantially all undistributed foreign earnings, except for those that are legally restricted.

Our current ratio was 1.7 to 1 and 1.6 to 1 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

We believe that our present cash balance and cash flows from operations, and borrowing availability under our revolving credit agreement, are sufficient to fund our near-term working capital and other investment needs. We believe that our longer-term working capital and other general corporate requirements will be satisfied through cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, from bank borrowings and future financial market activities. However, due to the changing market conditions and its impact on our customers and suppliers, we are unable to fully estimate the extent of the impact it may have on our future financial condition.

Credit Agreement

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027.

Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders. See Note G to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

20

The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0. We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2023.

364-day Term Loan

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.

Other Liquidity and Capital Resource Activities

On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contain no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023.

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our cash flow and related liquidity, we work with suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, including extending payment terms. We also facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $64 million and $50 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $20 million and $29 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. A downgrade in our credit rating or changes in the financial markets could limit the financial institutions’ willingness to commit funds to, and participate in, the program. We do not believe such risk would have a material impact on our working capital or cash flows, as substantially all of our payments are made outside of the program.

Share Repurchases

Effective October 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, for retirement, of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock in open-market transactions or otherwise, replacing the previous Board of Directors authorization established in 2021. We repurchased and retired approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2023 for approximately $81 million. This included 0.2 million shares to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in the six months ended June 30, 2023. At June 30, 2023, we had approximately $1.9 billion remaining under the 2022 authorization. Consistent with our past practice and as part of our long-term capital allocation strategy, we anticipate using approximately $350 million of cash for share repurchases (including shares which will be purchased to offset any dilution from restricted stock units granted as part of our compensation program) in 2023.

Cash Flows

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by operations was $448 million, primarily driven by operating profit, partially offset by changes in working capital, due mostly to higher receivables.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used for financing activities was $386 million, primarily due to $200 million for the payment of the 364-day term loan, $129 million for the payment of cash dividends, $81 million for the repurchase and retirement of our common stock (including 0.2 million shares repurchased to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in 2023), and $49 million for dividends paid to noncontrolling interest. These uses of cash were partially offset by $77 million of proceeds from short-term debt borrowings.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used for investing activities was $137 million, primarily driven by $133 million of capital expenditures.

In exchange for the consideration and mutual promises identified below (the adequacy and sufficiency of which being duly acknowledged), Employee and Masco agree as follows:

1.Payment of Severance Payments. Pursuant to this Agreement, Employee is eligible for the following Severance Payments:

a.A cash payment, which is equivalent to Employee’s target 2023 annual cash bonus (the amount at target being $601,238 or 75% of Employee’s base salary), prorated to reflect the five months Employee was employed by Masco during 2023 through the Separation Date and subject to actual performance, and such payment shall be paid out in February 2024;

d.An extension of the exercise period for Employee’s outstanding stock options granted prior to 2020 under the 2014 Masco Corporation Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, from 30 days from the Separation Date to 90 days from the Separation Date; and

provided that Employee does not revoke this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 3.c. and continues to comply with Paragraph 2 below. Masco will pay Employee the Severance Payments consistent with this Agreement.

2.Employee’s Continuing Obligations.

a.Release. Employee, individually, and on behalf of Employee’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, releases and forever discharges Masco, Employer, their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, and, as to each of the aforementioned, their respective successors, predecessors, assigns, insurers, past and present owners, officers, directors, agents, current and former employees and independent contractors, all others for whom the parties released herein may be vicariously or otherwise liable, the attorneys and legal representatives of all those released herein, as well as the agents and employees of those attorneys and legal representatives, and any and all other persons, firms, companies, corporations and other legal entities (collectively referred to as the “Released Parties”), of and from all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, statutory rights, debts, suits, contracts, agreements, and liabilities of any kind, nature or description, direct or indirect, in law or in equity, in contract or in tort or otherwise, which Employee ever had or which Employee now has or hereafter can, shall or may have, against any of the Released Parties, for or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever up to the date Employee executes this Agreement, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected at the present time, or which may be based upon pre-existing acts, claims or events occurring at any time up to the present date which may or have resulted in damages, including without limitation all direct or indirect claims either for direct or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever and rights or claims arising under any and all federal, state or local statutes, ordinances and/or laws, including without limitation Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”),  the Equal Pay Act (“EPA”), the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (“PDA”), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (“GINA”), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”), the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”),all claims under applicable state civil rights statutes, and all other claims and rights, whether in law or equity.  It is the intention of the parties that this general release by Employee will be construed as broadly as possible, subject to the express limitations set forth below. Nothing in this Agreement, however, prohibits or prevents Employee from filing a charge with or participating, testifying or assisting in any investigation, hearing, whistleblower action or other proceeding, which cannot be waived, before any federal, state or local government agency (e.g., EEOC, NLRB, SEC, etc.), nor does anything in this Agreement preclude, prohibit or otherwise limit, in any way, Employee rights and abilities to contact, communicate with, report matters to or otherwise participate in any whistleblower program administered by any

such agencies. However, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that if such an administrative claim is made, Employee shall not be entitled to recover any individual monetary relief or other individual remedies. Notwithstanding the above, Employee is not waiving: (a) Employee’s right to make claims arising out of any acts or omissions of the Released Parties after the date Emloyee executes this Agreement; (b) any claim to vested amounts, benefits or entitlements under Masco’s or its affiliates benefit plans, including, without limitation, under any defined contribution or defined benefit pension plan, supplemental executive retirement plan, benefits restoration plan; (c) any claim relating to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or any right of indemnification (including related advancement of expenses) under Masco’s or any of its affiliates’ organizational documents, an indemnification agreement with Masco or any of its affiliates or otherwise; (d) any claim to amounts owed under this Agreement (subject to its terms); or (e) Employee’s rights as an equity or security holder in Masco or its affiliates.

b.Medicare Waiver. Employee affirms that as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, (1) Employee is not Medicare eligible (i.e., is not 65 years of age or older; is not suffering from end-stage renal failure; has not received Social Security Disability Insurance benefits for 24 months or longer, etc.) or (2) if eligible, Employee has no outstanding claims for Medicare benefits. Employee agrees to reasonably cooperate with Masco upon request with respect to any claim the CMS may make and for which Employee is required to indemnify Masco under this paragraph. Further, Employee agrees to waive any and all future actions against Masco for any private cause of action for damages pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1395y(b)(3)(A).

The release contained herein will not release or otherwise affect the Parties’ rights and obligations arising under this Agreement.

DM: 377975

g.No Disparagement. Employee agrees not to criticize, disparage or otherwise demean in any way Masco or its affiliates or their respective products, officers, directors or employees. This includes, but is not limited to, directly or indirectly providing disparaging comments to the media or disseminating them electronically, such as on any website or blog.

h.Non-Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Employee understands that nothing in this Agreement restricts or prohibits Employee from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing information concerning this Agreement, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with a self-regulatory authority or a government agency or entity, or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of state or federal law or regulation, and pursuant to 18 USC § 1833(b), an individual may not be held liable under any criminal or civil federal or state trade secret law for disclosure of a trade secret: (a) made in confidence to a government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (b) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, an individual suing an entity for retaliation based on the reporting of a suspected violation of law may disclose a trade secret to the individual’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the individual does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 USC § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by 18 USC § 1833(b).

i.Disclosure of Known Claims. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has disclosed to Masco any and all facts within Employee’s knowledge concerning any actual or potential claim against Masco, including but not limited to any and all claims arising out of federal, state or local law, or any claim resulting in or from a loss, theft or fraud against Masco.

j.No Actions Filed. Employee represents that Employee has not filed any action, charge, suit, or claim against Masco with any federal, state, or local agency or court, and has not initiated any mediation or arbitration proceeding. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not receive or be entitled to any monetary damages, recovery, and/or relief of any type in connection with any charge, administrative action, or legal proceeding pursued by Employee, by any governmental agency, person, group, or entity regarding and/or relating to any claim(s) released pursuant to this Agreement.

k.Consequence of Employee’s Breach. Employee acknowledges and agrees that if Employee breaches any obligation under this Agreement, Masco may immediately terminate any remaining payments and the provision of any other benefits that might otherwise be required by this Agreement. Any such termination by Masco shall not impair the validity or enforceability of the release provision of this Agreement.

l.Additional Relief. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Masco’s remedy at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the following provisions of this Agreement: Employee’s Continuing Obligations, Disclosure of Known Claims, No Disparagement, Non-Disclosure, Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, Cooperation with Masco, Non-Cooperation with Others would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, in the event of a breach or

5

DM: 377975

threatened breach of any of these provisions, Employee agrees that, in addition to its remedy at law, and at Masco’s option, all rights of Employee under Paragraph 1 of this Agreement may be terminated, and Masco shall be entitled without posting any bond to obtain, and Employee agrees not to oppose a request for, equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. Employee acknowledges that the granting of a temporary injunction, temporary restraining order or permanent injunction merely prohibiting the use of Proprietary Information would not be an adequate remedy upon breach or threatened breach hereof, and consequently agrees upon any such breach or threatened breach to the granting of injunctive relief prohibiting the design, development, manufacture, marketing or sale of products and providing of services of the kind designed, developed, manufactured, marketed, sold or provided by Masco or its affiliates as of the date of this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting Masco from pursuing, in addition, any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach.

m.Remedies Cumulative. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the rights and remedies given to Masco in this Agreement shall be deemed cumulative, and the exercise of one such remedy shall not operate to bar the exercise of any other rights and remedies reserved to Masco or available at law or in equity.

n.Employee Acknowledgments. Employee specifically represents, warrants and confirms that, except as provided in clause (b) of this paragraph Employee: (a) has been properly paid for all hours worked for the Employer; (b) has received all bonuses and other compensation due to Employee with the exception of Employee’s final payroll check(s) for wages through and including the Separation Date, which will be paid at the time of separation; and (c) has not engaged in any unlawful conduct relating to the business of Masco.

3.Miscellaneous Provisions.

a.Termination of Welfare Benefit and Pension Plans. As of the Separation Date, Employee shall cease to be an active participant under Masco’s welfare benefit and pension plans (or the plans of any of Masco’s affiliates) pursuant to the terms of those plans, and no additional benefits shall accrue to Employee. Employee waives any claim to such accrual of benefits beyond the Separation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall continue to be a participant under the Supplemental Executive Retirement and Disability Plan.

b.Time for Acceptance. Employee has twenty-one days during which to consider this offer. Employee is not required to, but may, accept this Agreement by signing and dating it within twenty-one days.

h.Modifications. This Agreement may not be modified except by a subsequent written agreement, executed by both parties, which specifically evidences an intent to modify the terms of this Agreement. Employee reaffirms Employee’s agreement to comply with all such ongoing obligations. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital.

j.Knowing and Voluntary. Employee represents that employee fully understands the terms of this Agreement and is executing this Agreement voluntarily.

k.Severability. If any portion of this Agreement is ruled unenforceable, all remaining provisions shall remain valid and in effect.

l.Waiver of Breach. The waiver by Masco of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed or considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

m.Headings. The headings of each Paragraph are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or intent of any provision of this Agreement.

B.Pursuant to this Agreement, Employee is eligible for certain payments and benefits as described herein (the “Severance Payments”).

AGREEMENT

In exchange for the consideration and mutual promises identified below (the adequacy and sufficiency of which being duly acknowledged), Employee and Masco agree as follows:

b.A cash payment, which is equivalent to Employee’s target 2023 annual restricted stock unit grant (the amount at target being $465,370 or 75% of Employee’s base salary), prorated to reflect the six months Employee was employed by Masco during 2023 through the Separation Date and subject to actual performance, and such payment shall be paid out in February 2024;

provided that Employee does not revoke this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 3.c. and continues to comply with Paragraph 2 below. Masco will pay Employee the Severance Payments consistent with this Agreement.

2.Employee’s Continuing Obligations.

a.Release. Employee, individually, and on behalf of Employee’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, releases and forever discharges Masco, Employer, their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, and, as to each of the aforementioned, their respective successors, predecessors, assigns, insurers, past and present owners, officers, directors, agents, current and former employees and independent contractors, all others for whom the parties released herein may be vicariously or otherwise liable, the attorneys and legal representatives of all those released herein, as well as the agents and employees of those attorneys and legal representatives, and any and all other persons, firms, companies, corporations and other legal entities (collectively referred to as the “Released Parties”), of and from all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, statutory rights, debts, suits, contracts, agreements, and liabilities of any kind, nature or description, direct or indirect, in law or in equity, in contract or in tort or otherwise, which Employee ever had or which Employee now has or hereafter can, shall or may have, against any of the Released Parties, for or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever up to the date Employee executes this Agreement, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected at the present time, or which may be based upon pre-existing acts, claims or events occurring at any time up to the present date which may or have resulted in damages, including without limitation all direct or indirect claims either for direct or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever and rights or claims arising under any and all federal, state or local statutes, ordinances and/or laws, including without limitation Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”),  the Equal Pay Act (“EPA”), the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (“PDA”), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (“GINA”), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”), the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”),all claims under applicable state civil rights statutes, and all other claims and rights, whether in law or equity.  It is the intention of the parties that this general release by Employee will be construed as broadly as possible, subject to the express limitations set forth below. Nothing in this Agreement, however, prohibits or prevents Employee from filing a charge with or participating, testifying or assisting in any investigation, hearing, whistleblower action or other proceeding, which cannot be waived, before any federal, state or local government agency (e.g., EEOC, NLRB, SEC, etc.), nor does anything in this Agreement preclude, prohibit or otherwise limit, in any way, Employee rights and abilities to contact, communicate with, report matters to or otherwise participate in any whistleblower program administered by any such agencies. However, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that if such an administrative claim is made, Employee shall not be entitled to recover any individual monetary relief or other individual remedies. Notwithstanding the above, Employee is not waiving: (a) Employee’s right to make claims arising out of any acts or omissions of the Released Parties after the date Emloyee executes this Agreement; (b) any claim to vested amounts, benefits or entitlements under Masco’s or its affiliates benefit plans, including, without limitation, under any defined contribution

2

or defined benefit pension plan, supplemental executive retirement plan, benefits restoration plan; (c) any claim relating to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or any right of indemnification (including related advancement of expenses) under Masco’s or any of its affiliates’ organizational documents, an indemnification agreement with Masco or any of its affiliates or otherwise; (d) any claim to amounts owed under this Agreement (subject to its terms); or (e) Employee’s rights as an equity or security holder in Masco or its affiliates.

b.Medicare Waiver. Employee affirms that as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, (1) Employee is not Medicare eligible (i.e., is not 65 years of age or older; is not suffering from end-stage renal failure; has not received Social Security Disability Insurance benefits for 24 months or longer, etc.) or (2) if eligible, Employee has no outstanding claims for Medicare benefits. Employee agrees to reasonably cooperate with Masco upon request with respect to any claim the CMS may make and for which Employee is required to indemnify Masco under this paragraph. Further, Employee agrees to waive any and all future actions against Masco for any private cause of action for damages pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1395y(b)(3)(A).

The release contained herein will not release or otherwise affect the Parties’ rights and obligations arising under this Agreement.

c.Past Agreements Continue. This Agreement does not release Employee of any ongoing obligations owed to the Masco pursuant to the following agreements previously entered into with Masco:

i.Dispute Resolution Policy (DRP). Any dispute Employee might have against Released Parties, arising out of the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, will be resolved solely by use of Dispute Resolution Policy (“DRP”), the terms of which are incorporated into this Agreement. By signing this Agreement, Employee certifies that Employee has had an opportunity to review the DRP and that Employee has signed an acknowledgement of receipt of that document.

ii.Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement. Employee agrees to comply with the Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement. That Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, a copy of which has been provided to Employee, shall continue in full force and effect. By executing this Agreement, Employee certifies that all confidential, proprietary or trade secret information has been returned as required by Paragraph 1 of the Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement.

iii.Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Awards. Pursuant to the 2014 Masco Corporation Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, the awards made in letters to Employee and the related Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Awards Granted Under the 2014 Masco Corporation Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, Employee continues to be bound by the obligations described therein.

iv.Terms and Conditions of Performance Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Pursuant to the 2014 Masco Corporation Long Term Incentive Program under the 2014 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, the awards made in letters to Employee and the related Terms and Conditions of the program, Employee continues to be bound by the obligations described therein.

3

v.Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Pursuant to the 2014 Masco Corporation Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, the awards made in letters to Employee and the related Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Units under the Masco Corporation 2014 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, Employee continues to be bound by the obligations described therein.

d.Return of Property. Employee agrees to return immediately any and all Masco property still in Employee’s possession (including any and all property of its affiliates) of whatsoever kind and character, including, without limitation, keys, documents, computer software and hardware, discs and media, and policy and procedures manuals. However, Employee may retain copies of this Agreement, any document referenced in this Agreement and any other agreement, plan, program, policy or arrangement related to Employee’s compensation, benefits or terms of employment with Masco and its affiliates, as well as contact information for Employee’s personal and professional contacts (whether or not stored on Masco or its affiliates’ computer systems or other devices); provided that Employee only uses such information consistent with his ongoing obligations to Masco.

e.Cooperation With Masco. Employee agrees that in the defense or prosecution of any pending or future claim involving Masco or any of its current or former affiliates (collectively referred to as the “Company”), Employee will be available at reasonable times for the purpose of consultation, discovery and providing testimony. Employee will at all times be candid, honest, and forthright in discharging the duties contemplated by this Paragraph. If it becomes necessary for the Company to obtain the cooperation of Employee as contemplated herein, the Company will: (i) in good faith reasonably accommodate Employee’s personal and work schedules, and (ii) reimburse reasonable expenses incurred by Employee, in connection with providing support and cooperation pursuant to this Agreement.

f.Non-Cooperation With Others. Except to the extent permitted by applicable law, Employee shall not encourage or, except as required by law, provide any information about the business, products, or employees of the Company to any person or entity to assert, maintain, or prosecute a claim or litigation against Company or its officers, directors, or employees. Employee further agrees that, if approached informally or subpoenaed by any person, company, attorney, or agent for any person or entity other than the Company, at any time regarding any matter, currently litigated or otherwise, involving the Company, its employees, its products, or its business, Employee will give prompt notice to the General Counsel of Masco Corporation, 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, MI 48152. Masco shall reimburse Employee for any reasonable expense incurred in connection with such notification.

g.No Disparagement. Employee agrees not to criticize, disparage or otherwise demean in any way Masco or its affiliates or their respective products, officers, directors or employees. This includes, but is not limited to, directly or indirectly providing disparaging comments to the media or disseminating them electronically, such as on any website or blog.

h.Non-Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Employee understands that nothing in this Agreement restricts or prohibits Employee from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing information concerning this Agreement, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with a self-regulatory authority or a government agency or entity, or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of state or federal law or regulation, and pursuant to 18 USC § 1833(b), an individual may not be held liable under any criminal or civil federal or state trade

4

secret law for disclosure of a trade secret: (a) made in confidence to a government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (b) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, an individual suing an entity for retaliation based on the reporting of a suspected violation of law may disclose a trade secret to the individual’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the individual does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 USC § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by 18 USC § 1833(b).

i.Disclosure of Known Claims. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has disclosed to Masco any and all facts within Employee’s knowledge concerning any actual or potential claim against Masco, including but not limited to any and all claims arising out of federal, state or local law, or any claim resulting in or from a loss, theft or fraud against Masco.

j.No Actions Filed. Employee represents that Employee has not filed any action, charge, suit, or claim against Masco with any federal, state, or local agency or court, and has not initiated any mediation or arbitration proceeding. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not receive or be entitled to any monetary damages, recovery, and/or relief of any type in connection with any charge, administrative action, or legal proceeding pursued by Employee, by any governmental agency, person, group, or entity regarding and/or relating to any claim(s) released pursuant to this Agreement.

k.Consequence of Employee’s Breach. Employee acknowledges and agrees that if Employee breaches any obligation under this Agreement, Masco may immediately terminate any remaining payments and the provision of any other benefits that might otherwise be required by this Agreement. Any such termination by Masco shall not impair the validity or enforceability of the release provision of this Agreement.

l.Additional Relief. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Masco’s remedy at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the following provisions of this Agreement: Employee’s Continuing Obligations, Disclosure of Known Claims, No Disparagement, Non-Disclosure, Proprietary Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, Cooperation with Masco, Non-Cooperation with Others would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of these provisions, Employee agrees that, in addition to its remedy at law, and at Masco’s option, all rights of Employee under Paragraph 1 of this Agreement may be terminated, and Masco shall be entitled without posting any bond to obtain, and Employee agrees not to oppose a request for, equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. Employee acknowledges that the granting of a temporary injunction, temporary restraining order or permanent injunction merely prohibiting the use of Proprietary Information would not be an adequate remedy upon breach or threatened breach hereof, and consequently agrees upon any such breach or threatened breach to the granting of injunctive relief prohibiting the design, development, manufacture, marketing or sale of products and providing of services of the kind designed, developed, manufactured, marketed, sold or provided by Masco or its affiliates as of the date of this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting Masco from pursuing, in addition, any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach.

5

m.Remedies Cumulative. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the rights and remedies given to Masco in this Agreement shall be deemed cumulative, and the exercise of one such remedy shall not operate to bar the exercise of any other rights and remedies reserved to Masco or available at law or in equity.

n.Employee Acknowledgments. Employee specifically represents, warrants and confirms that, except as provided in clause (b) of this paragraph Employee: (a) has been properly paid for all hours worked for the Employer; (b) has received all bonuses and other compensation due to Employee with the exception of Employee’s final payroll check(s) for wages through and including the Separation Date, which will be paid at the time of separation; and (c) has not engaged in any unlawful conduct relating to the business of Masco.

3.Miscellaneous Provisions.

a.Termination of Welfare Benefit and Pension Plans. As of the Separation Date, Employee shall cease to be an active participant under Masco’s welfare benefit and pension plans (or the plans of any of Masco’s affiliates) pursuant to the terms of those plans, and no additional benefits shall accrue to Employee. Employee waives any claim to such accrual of benefits beyond the Separation Date.

b.Time for Acceptance. Employee has twenty-one days during which to consider this offer. Employee is not required to, but may, accept this Agreement by signing and dating it within twenty-one days. If Employee does not execute this Agreement within twenty-one days, then Masco’s offer of this Agreement will be revoked, and it shall be deemed null and void.

c.Revocation/ Effective Date. Employee understands that Employee may revoke this Agreement for a period of seven calendar days following the execution of this Agreement. Therefore, the Effective Date of this Agreement will be the eighth calendar day after Employee signs and dates the Agreement. Employee further understands that, to be effective, any revocation must be in writing and postmarked within seven calendar days of the date on which Employee signs and dates this Agreement, and that the revocation notice must be addressed to Tara Mahoney, Corporate Employment Counsel, Masco Corporation, 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, MI 48152. If revocation is by mail, Employee should send it by certified mail, return receipt requested in order to create proof of mailing.

e.Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan.

f.Venue. The parties agree that any dispute may only be commenced in the office of the American Arbitration Association nearest Livonia, Michigan.

g.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other documents referenced herein, contains the parties’ entire agreement relating to its subject matter and supersedes and replaces all other agreements and/or understandings between the parties relating to its subject matter, except as otherwise specifically stated herein; provided however, that the agreements identified in Paragraph 2.c. of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as provided in a manner consistent with Paragraph 2.c., as shall those terms in any and all other agreements, which by their terms survive the termination of employment.

h.Modifications. This Agreement may not be modified except by a subsequent written agreement, executed by both parties, which specifically evidences an intent to modify the terms of this Agreement. Employee reaffirms Employee’s agreement to comply

6

with all such ongoing obligations. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and not a mere recital.

i.No Oral Representations. Employee represents that no promise, inducement or agreement has been made between the parties regarding the subject matter of this agreement other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement, and that he has not relied on any oral statements of Masco or its representatives in deciding to sign this Agreement.

j.Knowing and Voluntary. Employee represents that employee fully understands the terms of this Agreement and is executing this Agreement voluntarily.

k.Severability. If any portion of this Agreement is ruled unenforceable, all remaining provisions shall remain valid and in effect.

l.Waiver of Breach. The waiver by Masco of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed or considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

m.Headings. The headings of each Paragraph are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or intent of any provision of this Agreement.

n.Assignment. Employee’s obligations under this Agreement are not assignable, although Masco shall have the right to assign this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon Employee’s executors, heirs, estate, legal representatives, beneficiaries, and other successors in interest and shall inure to the benefit of Masco and its successors and assigns.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position at June 30, 2023, our results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States of America.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024 and will be adopted at that time. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. ASU 2023-02 is effective for annual periods on either a modified retrospective or retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2024, and we are currently reviewing the provisions of this standard and the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations.

Supplier Finance Program [Abstract]

SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

F. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.

All outstanding payments owed under the program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $64 million and $50 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $20 million and $29 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

DEBT

G. DEBT

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders.

G. DEBT (Concluded)

The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility available to us and one of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, European euros, British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars and certain other currencies for revolving credit loans, swingline loans and letters of credit. Borrowings under the revolving credit loans denominated in any agreed upon currency other than U.S. dollars are limited to the equivalent of $500 million. We can also borrow swingline loans up to $125 million and obtain letters of credit of up to $25 million. Outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement reduce our borrowing capacity and we had no outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement at June 30, 2023.

The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0.

In order for us to borrow under the 2022 Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in our covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants described above, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, and requirements relating to legal compliance, maintenance of our properties and insurance) and our representations and warranties in the 2022 Credit Agreement must be true in all material respects on the date of borrowing (i.e., principally no material adverse change or litigation likely to result in a material adverse change, since December 31, 2021, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance, and no material tax deficiency). We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2023. 

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.

On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contain no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023.

Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of our short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues, which are Level 1 inputs. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at June 30, 2023 was approximately $2.6 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.0 billion. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at December 31, 2022 was approximately $2.7 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.2 billion.

Our effective tax rate was 26 percent and 24 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and was 26 percent and 25 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was favorably impacted by $12 million and $10 million of income tax benefits, respectively. For both periods, the income tax benefits primarily resulted from a reduction in the liability for uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of statutes of limitation and stock-based compensation.

The following stock options, restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect, in thousands:

Number of performance restricted stock units	15	—	15	—

Effective October 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, for retirement, of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock in open-market transactions or otherwise, replacing the previous Board of Directors authorization established in 2021. We repurchased and retired approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2023 for approximately $81 million. This included 0.2 million shares to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

L. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation.    We are involved in claims and litigation, including class actions, mass torts and regulatory proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. The types of matters may include, among others: advertising, competition, contract, data privacy, employment, environmental, insurance coverage, intellectual property, personal injury, product compliance, product liability, securities and warranty. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters. We are also subject to product safety regulations, product recalls and direct claims for product liabilities. We believe the likelihood that the outcome of these claims, litigation and product safety matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could, in the future, incur judgments or penalties, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024 and will be adopted at that time. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. ASU 2023-02 is effective for annual periods on either a modified retrospective or retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2024, and we are currently reviewing the provisions of this standard and the impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial position and results of operations.
