(the "Company"), and David Prichard, the Vice President, Investor Relations, of the Company, will present at the Barclays Global Consumer Staples Conference in Boston, Massachusetts. The slides to be presented at the conference by Messrs. Martin and Prichard (the "Presentation Slides") are being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Presentation Slides, in addition to containing results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), contains certain "non-GAAP financial measures" as that term is defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures contained in the Presentation Slides should not be considered in isolation of, as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Presentation Slides contain reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed therein to their most comparable GAAP measures.
The information set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the Exhibit 99.1 referenced herein, is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company's filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings, except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. The filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information herein that is required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this document and other oral and written statements by representatives of the Company regarding matters such as the Company's ability to meet its expectations for its fiscal 2015 (including its ability to increase its net sales and adjusted EBITDA) may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We have tried, whenever possible, to identify these statements by using words like "future," "anticipate", "intend," "plan," "estimate," "believe," "expect," "project," "forecast," "could," "would," "should," "will," "may," and similar expressions of future intent or the negative of such terms. These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated as of the date of this document. Actual results may differ materially as a result of (1) the Company's ability to manage and otherwise comply with its covenants with respect to its significant outstanding indebtedness, (2) our ability to integrate and realize synergies from our recent acquisitions and any possible future acquisitions, (3) risks related to changes and developments in external competitive market factors, such as introduction of new product features or technological developments, development of new competitors or competitive brands or competitive promotional activity or spending, (4) changes in consumer demand for the various types of products the Company offers, (5) unfavorable developments in the global credit markets, (6) the impact of overall economic conditions on consumer spending, (7) fluctuations in commodities prices, the costs or availability of raw materials or terms and conditions available from suppliers, (8) changes in the general economic conditions in countries and regions where the Company does business, such as stock market prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation and consumer spending, (9) the Company's ability to successfully implement manufacturing, distribution and other cost efficiencies and to continue to benefit from its cost-cutting initiatives, (10) the Company's ability to identify, develop and retain key employees, (11) unfavorable weather conditions and various other risks and uncertainties, including those discussed herein and those set forth in the securities filings of each of the Company and SB/RH Holdings, LLC, including each of their most recently filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
The Company also cautions the reader that its estimates of trends, market share, retail consumption of its products and reasons for changes in such consumption are based solely on limited data available to the Company and management's reasonable assumptions about market conditions, and consequently may be inaccurate, or may not reflect significant segments of the retail market. The Company also cautions the reader that undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. The Company undertakes no duty or responsibility to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect actual outcomes.
