F’17 Q2 Financial Results
2Forward-Looking Statements
In this presentation, statements that are not reported financial results or other historic information are “forward-looking
statements.” These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the Company's future financial position,
business strategy, targets, projected sales, costs, earnings, capital expenditures, debt levels and cash flows, and plans
and objectives of management for future operations.
The use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “project” or “plan”
or similar terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain and are subject to risks, assumptions, and other
factors, some of which are beyond Brady's control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For Brady, uncertainties arise from: our ability to compete
effectively or to successfully execute our strategy; Brady’s ability to develop technologically advanced products that
meet customer demands; difficulties in protecting our websites, networks, and systems against security breaches;
deterioration or instability in the global economy and financial markets; decreased demand for our products; Brady’s
ability to retain large customers; risks associated with the loss of key employees; changes in tax legislation and tax
rates; Brady’s ability to execute facility consolidations and maintain acceptable operational service metrics; extensive
regulations by U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and self-regulatory entities; litigation, including product liability claims;
divestitures and contingent liabilities from divestitures; Brady’s ability to properly identify, integrate, and grow acquired
companies; foreign currency fluctuations; potential write-offs of Brady’s substantial intangible assets; differing interests
of voting and non-voting shareholders; Brady’s ability to meet certain financial covenants required by our debt
agreements; numerous other matters of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic,
business, competitive, and regulatory nature contained from time to time in Brady’s U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission filings, including, but not limited to, those factors listed in the “Risk Factors” section within Item 1A of Part I
of Brady’s Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2016.
These uncertainties may cause Brady's actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in its
forward-looking statements. Brady does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements except as required by
law.

16Debt Structure
Brady is presenting EBITDA because it is used by many of our investors and lenders, and is presented as a convenience to them. EBITDA represents net earnings
before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. EBITDA is not a calculation based on generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"). The amounts included in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings
data. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings or operating income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, or as an
alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The EBITDA measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation.

17EBITDA Reconciliation
Brady is presenting the Non-GAAP measures "Net Earnings from Continuing Operations Excluding Certain Items“ and “Net Earnings from Continuing Operations
Per Diluted Class A Nonvoting Common Share Excluding Certain Items.” These are not calculations based upon GAAP. The amounts included in these
Non-GAAP measures are derived from amounts included in the Consolidated Financial Statements and supporting footnote disclosures. We do not view these
items to be part of our sustainable results. We believe these measures provide an important perspective of underlying business trends and results and provide
more comparable measures from year to year. The tables below provide reconciliations of Net Earnings from Continuing Operations to Net Earnings from
Continuing Operations Excluding Certain Items, and Net Earnings from Continuing Operations Per Diluted Class A Nonvoting Common Share to Net Earnings from
Continuing Operations Per Diluted Class A Nonvoting Common Share Excluding Certain Items.
