Segment Results Compared to Prior Year
Sales results were driven by the acquisition of the Emtek and Schaub premium and luxury hardware brands and the U.S. and Canadian Yale and August residential smart lock brands, and offset by lower sales volumes. Operating margin results were positively impacted by higher production volumes and continuous improvement initiatives.

For certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures (as used in this press release, operating margin before charges / gains on a full Company and segment basis, EPS before charges / gains and cash conversion), the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and / or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans, which are excluded from EPS before charges / gains and cash conversion, and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from operating margin before charges / gains, EPS before charges / gains and cash conversion. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure derived in accordance with GAAP and may also be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these measures to the applicable most closely comparable GAAP measures, and reasons for the Company’s use of these measures, are presented in the attached pages.

| ** Free cash flow is cash flow from operations calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") less capital expenditures. Free cash flow does not include adjustments for certain non-discretionary cash flows such as mandatory debt repayments. Free cash flow is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that free cash flow provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions, repay debt and related interest, pay dividends and repurchase common stock. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. | ||||||||||||

These costs can include losses from disposing of inventories, trade receivables allowances from discontinued product lines, accelerated depreciation due to the closure of facilities, and gains or losses from selling previously closed facilities. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2024, total other charges were $9.0 million. For the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2023, total other charges were $0.7 million. At Corporate, other charges also include expenditures of $1.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2023 for banking, legal, accounting, and other similar services directly related to the planned acquisition of the Emtek and Schaub premium and luxury door and hardware business, as well as the U.S. and Canadian Yale and August residential smart lock businesses. |

The before charges/gains operating margin is calculated as the operating income, excluding restructuring charges and other charges/gains, divided by the GAAP net sales.

| Reconciliation of GAAP Net sales to organic net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions on net sales is net sales derived in accordance with GAAP excluding impact of the acquisitions of SpringWell and Emtek and Schaub in our Water segment and the acquisition of Yale and August in our Security segment on net sales.

| (a) Operating income (loss) before charges/gains is calculated as operating income derived in accordance with GAAP, excluding restructuring and other charges/gains. Operating income (loss) before charges/gains is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to evaluate the returns generated by the Company and its business segments. Management believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the Company from period to period. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. | |||||||||
| (b) Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations before charges/gains is calculated as income from continuing operations on a diluted per-share basis, excluding restructuring and other charges/gains. This measure is not in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's overall performance and believes it provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's underlying performance from period to period.

EBITDA before charges/gains is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to assess returns generated by the Company. Management believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's ability to fund internal growth, make acquisitions and repay debt and related interest. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies. | |||||||||

| (g) Asset impairment charges for the thirty-nine weeks ended December 30, 2023 represent pre-tax impairment charges of $33.5 million related to indefinite-lived tradenames in our Outdoor segment. | |||||||||
| Additional Information: | |||||||||
| In January 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a change to the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31 to a 52-or 53-week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest but not subsequent to December 31, effective as of the commencement of the Company’s fiscal year on January 1, 2023. This change was made in order to align the Company’s fiscal year with that of its operating businesses and to align the Company’s reporting calendar with how the Company evaluates its businesses. There was no material impact to any of our previously disclosed financial information. | |||||||||
| On December 14, 2022, the Company completed the previously announced spin-off of its Cabinets business, MasterBrand, Inc. ("MasterBrand") (the "Spin-off"), in a tax-free transaction to the Company and our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, creating two independent, publicly traded companies. In addition, the Company's name changed from "Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc." to "Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc." and its stock ticker changed from "FBHS" to "FBIN" each of which became effective subsequent to the completion of the Spin-off. The operating results of the Cabinets business are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. | |||||||||
| In January 2022, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Solar Innovations, a leading producer of wide-opening exterior door systems and outdoor enclosures, for a purchase price of $61.6 million, net of cash acquired of $4.8 million. We financed the transaction using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The results of Solar are reported as part of the Outdoors segment. Its complementary product offerings support the segment’s outdoor living strategy. | |||||||||
| For certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures (as used in this press release, operating margin before charges/gains, EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion), the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans, which are excluded from our diluted EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion, and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from our operating margin before charges/gains, diluted EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions. | |||||||||
