SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 9, 2015, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to divest four product categories, comprised of 43 of its beauty brands (“Beauty Brands”), which will be merged with Coty, Inc. (“Coty”). While the ultimate form of the transaction has not yet been decided, the Company’s current preference is for a Reverse Morris Trust split-off transaction in which P&G shareholders could elect to participate in an exchange offer to exchange P&G shares for Coty shares. The transaction includes the global salon professional hair care and color, retail hair color, cosmetics and fine fragrance businesses, along with select hair styling brands. Combined, the Beauty Brands had $5.5 billion in net sales for the year ended June 30, 2015. The Company expects to close the transaction in the second half of calendar year 2016, pending regulatory approvals.
Coty’s offer for the Beauty Brands, which was accepted by the Company, was $12.5 billion. While the final value of the

transaction will be determined at closing, based on Coty’s stock price and outstanding shares and equity grants as of the date of signing, the value of the transaction was approximately $15.0 billion. The value is comprised of approximately 413 million shares, or 52% of the diluted equity of the newly combined company, valued at approximately $13.1 billion and the assumption of debt of $1.9 billion by the entity holding the beauty businesses immediately prior to close of the transaction. The assumed debt is expected to vary between $3.9 billion and $1.9 billion, depending on a $22.06 to $27.06 per share collar of Coty’s stock based on the trading price prior to the close of the transaction, but will be subject to other contractual valuation adjustments.
Beginning in the quarter ending September 30, 2015, the Beauty Brands will be reported as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Financial Statements, with prior year periods restated to reflect the same treatment.
