JARDEN CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in millions, except per share data and unless otherwise indicated)

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Jarden Corporation and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the “Company” or “Jarden”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, normal, recurring and necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported net income.

Stock Split

On November 24, 2014, the Company consummated a 3-for-2 stock split in the form of a stock dividend of one additional share of common stock for every two shares of common stock. The Company retained the current par value of $0.01 per share for all shares of common stock. All references to the number of shares outstanding, issued shares, per share amounts and restricted stock and stock option data of the Company’s shares of common stock have been restated to reflect the effect of the stock split for all periods presented in the Company’s accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto.

Supplemental Information

Stock-based compensation costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), were $2.3 and $6.1 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $41.2 and $41.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Interest expense is net of interest income of $0.5 and $1.4 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1.2 and $2.8, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Venezuela Operations

Prior to March 31, 2015, the Company included the results of its Venezuelan operations in the consolidated financial statements using the consolidation method of accounting. Venezuelan exchange control regulations have become increasingly restrictive and have resulted in an other-than-temporary lack of exchangeability between the Venezuelan bolivar and U.S. dollar, and have restricted our Venezuelan operations’ ability to pay obligations denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as pay dividends. These exchange regulations, combined with certain Venezuelan regulations, limit the Company’s ability to rationalize its manufacturing platform to a level that would allow the Company to maintain a sustainable production level that is commensurate with the declining demand resulting from the deteriorating macroeconomic conditions in Venezuela. Furthermore, the Venezuelan government imposes price restrictions that prohibit the Company from pricing its products at acceptable levels. As such, effective March 31, 2015, the Company began reporting the results of its Venezuelan operations using the cost method of accounting. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded charges of $60.6 related to the deconsolidation of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela (the “Venezuela-related charges”) that include in part, charges for the remeasurement of net monetary assets and the impairment of long-lived assets (discussed hereafter). The Venezuela-related charges are recorded in SG&A.

On February 10, 2015, the Venezuelan government established a new foreign exchange system, the Marginal Currency System (“SIMADI”). Furthermore, in February 2015 shortly after establishment of SIMADI, the SICAD-II program was eliminated. As such, the Company determined it would be most appropriate to remeasure the net monetary assets of the Company’s subsidiaries operating

Table of Contents

in Venezuela at the SIMADI exchange rate, as this was the Company’s expected settlement rate. The SIMADI exchange rate was approximately 193 Bolivars per U.S. dollar at March 31, 2015. As such, due to the change to the SIMADI exchange rate, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded a foreign exchange-related charge of $13.0 related to the write-down of net monetary assets due to this remeasurement. This charge is included in the aforementioned Venezuela-related charges. Furthermore, as a result of the continued foreign exchange restrictions, combined with the unfavorable macroeconomic conditions in Venezuela, the Company recorded a $37.3 impairment charge on property, plant and equipment that were previously recorded at historical cost. This charge is included in the aforementioned Venezuela-related charges.

Up until December 31, 2014, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela were remeasured at and reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the CENCOEX official exchange rate of 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar. Due to the evolving foreign exchange control environment in Venezuela and additional experience with the various foreign exchange mechanisms, as of December 31, 2014, the Company determined it would be most appropriate to remeasure the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela at the SICAD-II exchange rate of 50.0 Bolivars per U.S. dollar.

New Accounting Guidance

In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07, “Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), (“ASU 2015-07”). ASU 2015-07 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient and remove certain related disclosure requirements. ASU 2015-07 is effective for annual periods and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Since ASU 2015-07 only modifies existing disclosures, the adoption of ASU 2015-07 will not affect the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU No. 2015-03 changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability rather than as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2015-03 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis” (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. Specifically, ASU 2015-02 modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities or voting interest entities. ASU 2015-02 is effective for annual periods and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2015-02 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”). ASU-2014-08 establishes criteria for determining which disposals qualify as discontinued operations and also establishes disclosure requirements for both discontinued operations and material disposals that do not meet the definition of discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2014-08 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

2. Acquisitions

2015 Activity

On July 31, 2015, the Company acquired Waddington Group, Inc. (“Waddington”), a leading manufacturer and marketer of premium disposable tableware for commercial, foodservice and retail markets (the “Acquisition”). The total value of the transaction, including debt assumed and repaid, was approximately $1.35 billion, subject to certain adjustments. The Acquisition is expected to expand the Company’s product offerings and distribution channels, particularly in the business-to-business category, as well as create cross-selling opportunities. Waddington will be reported in the Company’s Branded Consumables segment and will be included in the Company’s results of operations from the date of acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information and the preliminary purchase price allocation have not been provided as estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have not been completed.

Table of Contents

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company also completed two tuck-in acquisitions that by nature were complementary to the Company’s core businesses and from an accounting standpoint were not significant.

2014 Activity

On August 29, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Rexair Holdings, Inc. (“Rexair”), a global provider of premium vacuum cleaning systems sold primarily under the Rainbow® brand name. Rexair is reported in the Company’s Consumer Solutions segment and is included in the Company’s results of operations from the date of acquisition.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the carrying value of total debt approximates fair market value. The fair market value (Level 1 measurement) of the Senior Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes is based upon quoted market prices. The fair market value (Level 2 measurement) for all other debt instruments is estimated using interest rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities.

Subsequent Event

In July 2015, the Company borrowed $900 under its senior secured credit facility, which is comprised of $300 under the existing senior secured term loan B1 facility that matures in 2020 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a 275 basis point spread; and $600 under a new senior secured term loan B2 facility that matures in 2022 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a 275 basis point spread. The proceeds were used, in part, to fund a portion of the Acquisition.

8. Derivative and Other Hedging Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Contracts

The Company manages its fixed and floating rate debt mix using interest rate swaps. The Company uses fixed and floating rate swaps to alter its exposure to the impact of changing interest rates on its consolidated results of operations and future cash outflows for interest. Floating rate swaps are used, depending on market conditions, to convert the fixed rates of long-term debt into short-term variable rates. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce the Company’s risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. Interest rate swap contracts are therefore used by the Company to separate interest rate risk management from the debt funding decision.

Fair Value Hedges

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $650 notional amount of interest rate swaps that exchange a fixed rate of interest for variable rate of interest (LIBOR) plus a weighted average spread of approximately 605 basis points. These floating rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges against $650 of principal on the Senior Subordinated Notes for the remaining life of these notes. The effective portion of the fair value gains or losses on these swaps is offset by fair value adjustments in the underlying debt.

Cash Flow Hedges

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $850 notional amount outstanding in swap agreements, which includes $350 notional amount of forward-starting swaps that become effective commencing December 31, 2015, that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for fixed interest rates over the terms of the agreements and are designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest payments and have maturity dates through June 2020. At June 30, 2015, the weighted average fixed rate of interest on these swaps, excluding the forward-starting swaps, was approximately 1.3%. The effective portion of the after-tax fair value gains or losses on these swaps is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”).

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate exposure on the cash flows related to forecasted inventory purchases and sales and have maturity dates through January 2017. The derivatives used to hedge these forecasted transactions that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gains or losses on these derivatives is deferred as a component of AOCI and is recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item affects earnings and is included in the same caption in the statements of operations as the underlying hedged item. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $616 notional amount outstanding of forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted inventory purchases and sales.

The Company also uses foreign currency contracts, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, to mitigate the foreign currency exposure of certain other foreign currency transactions. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $408 notional amount outstanding of these foreign currency contracts that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through September 2016. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in SG&A.

Commodity Contracts

The Company enters into commodity-based derivatives in order to mitigate the risk that the rising price of these commodities could have on the cost of certain of the Company’s raw materials. These commodity-based derivatives provide the Company with cost certainty, and in certain instances, allow the Company to benefit should the cost of the commodity fall below certain dollar thresholds. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $50 notional amount outstanding of commodity-based derivatives that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through December 2016. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in cost of sales.

Derivative assets and liabilities relate to interest rate swaps, foreign currency contracts and commodity contracts. Fair values are determined by the Company using market prices obtained from independent brokers or determined using valuation models that use as their basis readily observable market data that is actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including independent pricing services, brokers and market transactions. Available-for-sale securities include inflation protected bonds and are valued based on quoted market prices.

The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligations arising from acquisitions is based upon Level 3 inputs including, in part, the estimate of future cash flows based upon the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations are recorded in SG&A.

Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were as follows:

10. Contingencies

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) or a state environmental agency as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the disposition of any of the legal or environmental disputes the Company or its subsidiaries are currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect.

Environmental

The Company’s operations are subject to certain federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations in addition to laws and regulations regarding labeling and packaging of products and the sales of products containing certain environmentally sensitive materials. In addition to ongoing environmental compliance at its operations, the Company also is actively engaged in environmental remediation activities, the majority of which relates to divested operations and sites. Various of the Company’s subsidiaries have been identified by the EPA or a state environmental agency as a PRP pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or

 

14


Table of Contents

state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites (collectively, the “Environmental Sites”). The Company has established reserves to cover the anticipated probable costs of investigation and remediation based upon periodic reviews of all sites for which they have, or may have, remediation responsibility. The Company accrues environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated and their responsibility for the liability is established. Generally, the timing of these accruals coincides with the earlier of a formal commitment to an investigation plan, completion of a feasibility study or a commitment to a formal plan of action. The Company accrues its best estimate of investigation and remediation costs based upon facts known at such dates, and because of the inherent difficulties in estimating the ultimate amount of environmental costs, which are further described below, these estimates may materially change in the future as a result of the uncertainties described below. Estimated costs, which are based upon experience with similar sites and technical evaluations, are judgmental in nature and are recorded at discounted amounts without considering the impact of inflation and are adjusted periodically to reflect changes in applicable laws or regulations, changes in available technologies and receipt by the Company of new information. It is difficult to estimate the ultimate level of future environmental expenditures due to a number of uncertainties surrounding environmental liabilities. These uncertainties include the applicability of laws and regulations, changes in environmental remediation requirements, the enactment of additional regulations, uncertainties surrounding remediation procedures including the development of new technology, the identification of new sites for which various of the Company’s subsidiaries could be a PRP, information relating to the exact nature and extent of the contamination at each Environmental Site and the extent of required cleanup efforts, the uncertainties with respect to the ultimate outcome of issues which may be actively contested and the varying costs of alternative remediation strategies.

Due to the uncertainties described above, the Company’s ultimate future liability with respect to sites at which remediation has not been completed may vary from the amounts reserved as of June 30, 2015.

The Company believes that the costs of completing environmental remediation of all sites for which the Company has a remediation responsibility have been adequately reserved and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Litigation

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees for defending such actions. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. The Company believes that anticipated probable costs of litigation matters have been adequately reserved to the extent determinable. Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending litigation of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Product Liability

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company and/or its subsidiaries face the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods.

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are therefore party to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to their products and incidental to their business. Annually, the Company sets its product liability insurance program, which is an occurrence-based program based on the Company and its subsidiaries’ current and historical claims experience and the availability and cost of insurance. The Company’s product liability insurance program generally includes a self-insurance retention per occurrence.

Cumulative amounts estimated to be payable by the Company with respect to pending and potential claims for all years in which the Company is liable under its self-insurance retention have been accrued as liabilities. Such accrued liabilities are based on estimates (which include actuarial determinations made by an independent actuarial consultant as to liability exposure, taking into account prior experience, number of claims and other relevant factors); thus, the Company’s ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting liability are reviewed on a regular basis and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current operating results.

Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Because it is the Company’s intention to redeem the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes in cash, the treasury stock method is used for determining potential dilution in the diluted earnings per share computation. As of June 30, 2015, there were 6.0 million restricted share awards with performance-based vesting targets that were not met and as such, have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Information

From time to time, the Company may make or publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products and similar matters. Such statements are necessarily estimates reflecting management’s best judgment based on current information. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. Such statements are usually identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “planned,” “outlook” and “goal”. Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the Company’s actual results could differ materially. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in forward-looking statements. All statements addressing trends, events, developments, operating performance, potential acquisitions or liquidity that the Company anticipates or expects will occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or projected. Investors should bear this in mind as they consider forward-looking statements.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in the Company’s Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 for a list of factors which could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in the Company’s forward-looking statements and certain risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance and results of the Company’s businesses. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Summary of Significant 2015 Activities

 

    On July 31, 2015, the Company acquired Waddington Group, Inc. (“Waddington”), a leading manufacturer and marketer of premium disposable tableware for commercial, foodservice and retail markets (the “Acquisition”).

 

    In July 2015, the Company borrowed $900 million under its senior secured credit facility (the “Facility”), which is comprised of $300 million under the existing senior secured term loan B1 facility and $600 million under a new senior secured term loan B2 facility.

 

    On July 22, 2015, pursuant to a public offering of its common stock, the Company completed an equity offering of 18.4 million newly-issued shares of common stock at $54.50 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after the payment of underwriting discounts and other expenses of the offering, were approximately $969 million. The net proceeds were used to fund a portion of the Acquisition.

Acquisitions

Consistent with the Company’s historical acquisition strategy, to the extent the Company pursues future acquisitions, the Company intends to focus on businesses with product offerings that provide geographic or product diversification, or expansion into related categories that can be marketed through the Company’s existing distribution channels or provide the Company with new distribution channels for its existing products, thereby increasing marketing and distribution efficiencies. Furthermore, the Company expects that acquisition candidates would demonstrate a combination of attractive margins, strong cash flow characteristics, category leading positions and products that generate recurring revenue. The Company anticipates that the fragmented nature of the consumer products market will continue to provide opportunities for growth through strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will complete an acquisition in any given year or that any such acquisition will be significant or successful. The Company will only pursue a candidate when it is deemed to be fiscally prudent and meets the Company’s acquisition criteria. The Company anticipates that any future acquisitions would be financed through any combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, availability under its existing credit facilities and new capital market offerings.

2015 Activity

On July 31, 2015, the Company acquired Waddington, a leading manufacturer and marketer of premium disposable tableware for commercial, foodservice and retail markets. The total value of the transaction, including debt assumed and repaid, was approximately $1.35 billion, subject to certain adjustments. The Acquisition is expected to expand to the Company’s product offerings expand distribution channels, particularly in the business-to-business category, as well as create cross-selling opportunities. Waddington will be reported in the Company’s Branded Consumables segment and will be included in the Company’s results of operations from the date of acquisition.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company also completed two tuck-in acquisitions that by nature were complementary to the Company’s core businesses and from an accounting standpoint were not significant.

2014 Activity

On August 29, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Rexair Holdings, Inc. (“Rexair”), a global provider of premium vacuum cleaning systems sold primarily under the Rainbow® brand name (the “Rexair Acquisition”). Rexair is reported in the Company’s Consumer Solutions segment and is included in the Company’s results of operations from the date of acquisition.

Venezuela Operations

Prior to March 31, 2015, the Company included the results of its Venezuelan operations in the consolidated financial statements using the consolidation method of accounting. Venezuelan exchange control regulations have become increasingly restrictive and have resulted in an other-than-temporary lack of exchangeability between the Venezuelan bolivar and U.S. dollar, and have restricted our Venezuelan operations’ ability to pay obligations denominated in U.S. dollars, as well as pay dividends. These exchange regulations, combined with certain Venezuelan regulations, limit the Company’s ability to rationalize its manufacturing platform to a level that would allow the Company to maintain a sustainable production level that is commensurate with the declining demand resulting from the deteriorating macroeconomic conditions in Venezuela. Furthermore, the Venezuelan government imposes price restrictions that prohibit the Company from pricing its products at acceptable levels. As such, effective March 31, 2015, the Company began reporting the results of its Venezuelan operations using the cost method of accounting. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded charges of $60.6 million related to the deconsolidation of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela (the “Venezuela-related charges”) that include in part, charges for the remeasurement of net monetary assets and for the impairment of long-lived assets (discussed hereafter). The Venezuela-related charges are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”).

On February 10, 2015, the Venezuelan government established a new foreign exchange system, the Marginal Currency System (“SIMADI”). Furthermore, in February 2015 shortly after establishment of SIMADI, the SICAD-II program was eliminated. As such, the Company determined it would be most appropriate to remeasure the net monetary assets of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela at the SIMADI exchange rate, as this was the Company’s expected settlement rate. The SIMADI exchange rate was approximately 193 Bolivars per U.S. dollar at March, 31, 2015. As such, due to the change to the SIMADI exchange rate, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded a foreign exchange-related charge of $13.0 million related to the write-down of net monetary assets due to this remeasurement. This charge is included in the aforementioned Venezuela-related charges. Furthermore, as a result of the continued foreign exchange restrictions, combined with the unfavorable macroeconomic conditions in Venezuela, the Company recorded a $37.3 million impairment charge on property, plant and equipment that were previously recorded at historical cost. This charge is included in the aforementioned Venezuela-related charges.

Up until December 31, 2014, the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela were remeasured at and reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at the CENCOEX official exchange rate of 6.30 Bolivars per U.S. dollar. Due to the evolving foreign exchange control environment in Venezuela and additional experience with the various foreign exchange mechanisms, as of December 31, 2014, the Company determined it would be most appropriate to remeasure the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela at the SICAD-II exchange rate of 50.0 Bolivars per U.S. dollar.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 versus the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $30.6 million, or 1.5%, to $2.0 billion versus the same prior year period. Excluding the impact of the Rexair Acquisition (approximately 2%), as well as the negative impact of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela (approximately 1%), net sales on a currency-neutral basis increased approximately 7%, primarily due to increased demand internationally, primarily in Europe and Latin America, in certain product categories, expanded product offerings and increased sell-through in certain product categories, partially offset by weakness in other product categories. Unfavorable foreign currency translation accounted for a decrease in net sales of approximately 6%.

Net sales in the Branded Consumables segment decreased $7.1 million, or 1.0%. Net sales on a currency-neutral basis increased approximately 5%, primarily due to increased sales of certain product categories in the safety and security and Yankee Candle businesses, largely due to increased sales in Europe and expanded product offerings, as well as an increase in international sales in certain products in the home care businesses in part due to new product offerings and expanded distribution in certain countries. Additionally, mandatory smoke detector regulations in France have favorably affected product demand. Unfavorable foreign currency translation accounted for a decrease in net sales of approximately 6%.

Net sales in the Consumer Solutions segment increased $28.0 million, or 6.3%. Excluding the impact of the Rexair Acquisition (approximately 7%), as well as the negative impact of the Company’s subsidiaries operating in Venezuela (approximately 4%), net sales on a currency-neutral basis increased approximately 10%. The increase is primarily due to increased demand internationally, primarily in Latin America, which contributed to an increase in net sales of approximately 10%, largely due to expanded product offerings in the small appliance category and increased point of sale. Net sales domestically were essentially flat on a period-over period basis, as an increase in sales in certain categories was offset by a decline in sales in to certain key customers. Unfavorable foreign currency translation accounted for a decrease in net sales of approximately 6%.

Net sales in the Outdoor Solutions segment decreased $1.6 million, or 0.2%. Net sales on a currency-neutral basis increased approximately 6%, largely due to increased net sales in the apparel, camping and outdoor, fishing and team sports businesses. This increase is primarily due to increased sales domestically, largely due to increased demand at certain mass market retailers and the timing of sales in certain product categories, as well as increased sales in Europe. Additionally, the timing of sales in certain businesses during the three months ended June 30, 2015, were positively affected by the resolution of certain issues affecting U.S. West Coast ports. Unfavorable foreign currency translation accounted for a decrease in net sales of approximately 7%.

Net sales in the Process Solutions segment increased 11.5% on a period-over-period basis, due in part to increased coinage sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $25.1 million, or 1.8%, to $1.4 billion versus the same prior year period. The increase was in part due to increased sales (approximately $96 million), partially offset by the favorable foreign currency translation (approximately $83 million). Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 69.7% and 69.5%, respectively.

Table of Contents

Selling, General and Administrative Costs

SG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $6.4 million, or 1.6%, to $416 million versus the same prior year period. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was essentially flat on a period-over-period basis at approximately 20.7%. Favorable foreign currency translation (approximately $28 million) was essentially offset by other items.

Operating Earnings

Operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2015 in the Branded Consumables segment increased $5.0 million, or 6.1%, versus the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase in gross profit (approximately $4 million), primarily due to slightly improved gross margins. Operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2015 in the Consumer Solutions segment increased $4.8 million, or 10.5%, versus the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase in gross profit (approximately $7 million), primarily due to higher sales, in part due to the Rexair Acquisition, partially offset by an increase in SG&A (approximately $3 million). Operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2015 in the Outdoor Solutions segment decreased $14.9 million, or 18.8%, versus the same prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in gross profit (approximately $7 million), primarily due to a slight decrease in gross margins and an increase in SG&A (approximately $9 million), partially offset by a decrease in restructuring costs (approximately $2 million). Operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2015 in the Process Solutions segment increased $1.0 million, or 6.5%, versus the same prior year period, primarily due to an increase in gross profit.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense decreased $1.0 million to $51.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 versus the same prior year period, primarily due to the change in the composition of total debt versus the same prior year period.

Income Taxes

The Company’s reported tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 37.6% and 37.1%, respectively. The difference from the statutory tax rate to the reported tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2015 results principally from the U.S. tax expense related to the taxation of foreign income and potential tax exposures. The difference from the statutory tax rate to the reported tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2014 results principally from the U.S. tax expense related to the taxation of foreign income.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $33.8 million to $85.9 million versus the same prior year period. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, earnings per diluted share were $0.44 and $0.28, respectively. The increase in net income was primarily due to the decrease in the loss on the extinguishment of debt (approximately $54 million).

Net sales in the Outdoor Solutions segment decreased $60.8 million, or 4.2%. Net sales on a currency-neutral basis increased approximately 2%, largely due to increased net sales in the apparel and camping and outdoor businesses. This increase is primarily due to increased demand domestically at certain mass market retailers and increased point of sale.

Unfavorable foreign currency translation accounted for a decrease in net sales of approximately 6%.

Net sales in the Process Solutions segment increased 6.8% on a period-over-period basis, primarily due to increased coinage sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $38.7 million, or 1.5%, to $2.6 billion versus the same prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased sales (approximately $155 million) and the cost of sales impact of acquisitions, slightly lower margins and other items (collectively, approximately $25 million), partially offset by the favorable foreign currency translation (approximately $150 million).

Net interest expense decreased $2.1 million to $104.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 versus the same prior year period, primarily due to the change in the composition of total debt versus the same prior year period.

Income Taxes

The Company’s reported tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 43.7% and 39.4%, respectively. The difference from the statutory tax rate to the reported tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 results principally from the U.S. tax expense related to the taxation of foreign income and potential tax exposures. The difference from the statutory tax rate to the reported tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 results principally from the U.S. tax expense related to the taxation of foreign income.

Net Income

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased $25.4 million to $30.4 million versus the same prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, earnings per diluted share were $0.16 and $0.29, respectively. The decrease in net income was in part due to the Venezuela-related charges (approximately $61 million) recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2015, partially offset by a decrease in the loss on the extinguishment of debt (approximately $54 million).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

LIQUIDITY

At June 30, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $730 million, of which approximately $348 million was held by the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and the availability under the Company’s senior secured credit facility, the securitization facility and the credit facilities of certain foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2015 provide sufficient liquidity to support working capital requirements, planned capital expenditures, debt obligations, completion of current and future reorganization programs and pension plan contribution requirements for the foreseeable future, as well as fund the potential repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s stock repurchase program.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $272 million and $174 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change is primarily due to unfavorable working capital changes, in part due to comparatively higher seasonal inventory levels in certain businesses, in part due to the timing of purchases and sales for both comparable periods, as inventory levels at June 30, 2015, excluding the impact of the acquisitions, were approximately 10% higher than the comparable prior period-end, partially offset by a decrease in cash paid for interest and taxes (collectively, approximately $48 million).

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $39.1 million and $85.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change is primarily due to the period-over-period change in the issuance/repurchase of common stock, net ($236 million), partially offset by the decrease in the proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt in excess of payments on long-term debt ($161 million) and the period-over-period decrease in the net change in short-term debt ($40.4 million).

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $91.8 million and $203 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Cash used for the acquisition of businesses, net of cash acquired, decreased $75.2 million versus the same prior year period. Cash provided by other investing activities increased $34.3 million versus the same prior year period, primarily due to proceeds received during the six months ended June 30, 2015 related to the sale of a facility during December 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, capital expenditures were $97.7 million versus $99.3 million for the same prior year period. The Company expects to maintain capital expenditures at an annualized run-rate in the range of approximately 2.0% to 2.5% of net sales.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

In July 2015, the Company borrowed $900 million under the Facility, which is comprised of $300 million under the existing senior secured term loan B1 facility that matures in 2020 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a 275 basis point spread; and $600 million under a new senior secured term loan B2 facility that matures in 2022 and bears interest at LIBOR plus a 275 basis point spread. The proceeds were used, in part, to fund a portion of the Acquisition.

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2015, there was no amount outstanding under the Company’s $250 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) that matures in 2019. The Revolver bears interest at certain selected rates, including LIBOR plus a basis point spread. At June 30, 2015, the commitment fee on unused balances was 0.35% per annum.

The Company maintains a $500 million receivables purchase agreement (the “Securitization Facility”) that matures in October 2016. At June 30, 2015, the borrowing rate margin and the unused line fee on the Securitization Facility were 0.80% and 0.40% per annum, respectively. At June 30, 2015, the Securitization Facility had outstanding borrowings totaling $489 million.

At June 30, 2015, net availability under the Revolver and the Securitization Facility was approximately $228 million, after deducting approximately $33 million of outstanding standby and commercial letters of credit.

Certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company maintain working capital lines of credits with their respective local financial institutions for use in operating activities. At June 30, 2015, the aggregate amount available under these lines of credit totaled approximately $56 million.

The Company was not in default of any of its debt covenants at June 30, 2015.

Risk Management

Interest Rate Contracts

The Company manages its fixed and floating rate debt mix using interest rate swaps. The Company uses fixed and floating rate swaps to alter its exposure to the impact of changing interest rates on its consolidated results of operations and future cash outflows for interest. Floating rate swaps are used, depending on market conditions, to convert the fixed rates of long-term debt into short-term variable rates. Fixed rate swaps are used to reduce the Company’s risk of the possibility of increased interest costs. Interest rate swap contracts are therefore used by the Company to separate interest rate risk management from the debt funding decision.

Fair Value Hedges

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $650 million notional amount of interest rate swaps that exchange a fixed rate of interest for variable rate of interest (LIBOR) plus a weighted average spread of approximately 605 basis points. These floating rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges against $650 million of principal on the 7 12% senior subordinated notes due 2017 for the remaining life of these notes. The effective portion of the fair value gains or losses on these swaps is offset by fair value adjustments in the underlying debt.

Cash Flow Hedges

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $850 million notional amount outstanding in swap agreements, which includes $350 million notional amount of forward-starting swaps that become effective commencing December 31, 2015, that exchange a variable rate of interest (LIBOR) for fixed interest rates over the terms of the agreements and are designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate risk attributable to forecasted variable interest payments and have maturity dates through June 2020. At June 30, 2015, the weighted average fixed rate of interest on these swaps, excluding the forward-starting swaps, was approximately 1.3%. The effective portion of the after-tax fair value gains or losses on these swaps is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”).

Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate exposure on the cash flows related to forecasted inventory purchases and sales and have maturity dates through January 2017. The derivatives used to hedge these forecasted transactions that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gains or losses on these derivatives is deferred as a component of AOCI and is recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item affects earnings and is included in the same caption in the statements of operations as the underlying hedged item. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $616 million notional amount outstanding of forward foreign currency contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted inventory purchases and sales.

Table of Contents

The Company also uses foreign currency contracts, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, to mitigate the foreign currency exposure of certain other foreign currency transactions. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $408 million notional amount outstanding of these foreign currency contracts that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through September 2016. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in SG&A.

Commodity Contracts

The Company enters into commodity-based derivatives in order to mitigate the risk that the rising price of these commodities could have on the cost of certain of the Company’s raw materials. These commodity-based derivatives provide the Company with cost certainty, and in certain instances, allow the Company to benefit should the cost of the commodity fall below certain dollar thresholds. At June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $50 million notional amount outstanding of commodity-based derivatives that are not designated as effective hedges for accounting purposes and have maturity dates through December 2016. Fair market value gains or losses are included in the results of operations and are classified in cost of sales.

Net Investment Hedge

The Company has designated €300 of the principal balance of its Euro-denominated 3 3/4% senior notes due October 2021 (the “Hedging Instrument”) as a net investment hedge of the foreign currency exposure of its net investment in certain Euro-denominated subsidiaries. Foreign currency gains and losses on the Hedging Instrument are included as a component of AOCI. At June 30, 2015, $45.1 million of after-tax deferred gains have been recorded in AOCI.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Other than as discussed above, there have been no material changes from the information previously reported under Part II, Item 7A. in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the Company’s internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there have been no such changes during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report.

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency or a state environmental agency as a Potentially Responsible Party pursuant to the federal Superfund Act and/or state Superfund laws comparable to the federal law at various sites. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the disposition of any of the legal or environmental disputes the Company or its subsidiaries are currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect.

Litigation

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees for defending such actions. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. The Company believes that anticipated probable costs of litigation matters have been adequately reserved to the extent determinable. Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending litigation of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Product Liability

As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company and/or its subsidiaries face the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods.

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are therefore party to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to their products and incidental to their business. Annually, the Company sets its product liability insurance program, which is an occurrence- based program based on the Company and its subsidiaries’ current and historical claims experience and the availability and cost of insurance. The Company’s product liability insurance program generally includes a self-insurance retention per occurrence.

Cumulative amounts estimated to be payable by the Company with respect to pending and potential claims for all years in which the Company is liable under its self-insurance retention have been accrued as liabilities. Such accrued liabilities are based on estimates (which include actuarial determinations made by an independent actuarial consultant as to liability exposure, taking into account prior experience, number of claims and other relevant factors); thus, the Company’s ultimate liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued. The methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting liability are reviewed on a regular basis and any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current operating results.

Based on current information, the Company believes that the ultimate conclusion of the various pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
