“We continue to execute well on our strategic priorities, acting with urgency, discipline, and purpose in a challenging and volatile environment. Our focus on business fundamentals has led to top-line growth in our International business and accelerated gross margin expansion through excellent execution of our productivity program. While execution across much of the business is strong, we recognize that work remains to better position our portfolio in the competitive U.S. market. Therefore, we remain in an investment stance, reinforcing brand equity and supporting innovation. As we look forward to the second half of the year, we expect the challenging economic environment to negatively impact consumer sentiment and behavior, moderating our top-line expectations. Despite this, we will incrementally invest, focusing on our Wet Shave and Sun Care portfolios in the US. I am confident that these investments, along with our continued focus on strategic priorities and disciplined execution, will strengthen our business and better position Edgewell to deliver significant value creation for our shareholders.”
Fiscal 2Q 2025 Operating Results (Unaudited)
Net sales were $580.7 million in the quarter, a decrease of 3.1%, including a $9.8 million unfavorable impact from currency movements. Organic net sales decreased $8.9 million, or 1.5%. Growth in international markets was 2.9%, driven by both price and volume gains, seen across Wet Shave and Sun & Skin Care. Organic sales declined in North America by 3.9%, due to volume declines in Wet Shave, Feminine Care, and Sun Care.
Gross profit was $256.2 million, as compared to $258.1 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin as a percent of net sales increased 100-basis points, to 44.1% in the quarter, inclusive of approximately 10-basis points of negative foreign currency. Adjusted gross margin, as a percent of net sales, increased 100-basis points, or increased 110-basis points at constant currency. Productivity savings of approximately 380-basis points were partially offset by 195-basis points of core inflation and volume absorption and 85-basis points of unfavorable mix and increased promotional levels (net of pricing).
Advertising and sales promotion expense (“A&P”) was $65.5 million, or 11.3% of net sales, an increase of $2.4 million, compared to $63.1 million, or 10.5% of net sales in the prior year quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $105.7 million, or 18.2% of net sales, as compared to $107.5 million, or 17.9% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted SG&A was 18.0% of net sales, an increase of 60-basis points, which was primarily driven by higher people expenses and the impact of lower net sales, partially offset by favorable currency impacts.
The Company recorded pre-tax restructuring and repositioning expenses and costs in support of cost efficiency and effectiveness programs of $12.2 million in the quarter.
Operating income, was $58.9 million, or 10.1% of net sales, inclusive of a $2.8 million unfavorable currency movement, compared to $70.1 million, or 11.7% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating income was $76.7 million, or 13.2% of net sales, compared to $80.7 million, or 13.5% of net sales in the prior year quarter.
Interest expense associated with debt was $20.2 million, compared to $20.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in interest expense was the result of a lower borrowing rate on the Company’s U.S. revolving credit facility.
Other (income) expense, net was income of $2.6 million compared to expense of $2.7 million in the prior year quarter. Currency hedge and remeasurements gains were $2.4 million in the current quarter, compared to losses of $0.3 million in the prior year quarter.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2025 was 32.1% compared to 23.0% in the prior year period. The fiscal 2025 effective tax rate reflects the impact of net unfavorable discrete items and the unfavorable mix of earnings in higher tax rate jurisdictions. The adjusted effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2025 was 29.9%, up from the prior year period adjusted effective tax rate of 23.5%.
GAAP net earnings were $29.0 million or $0.60 per diluted share compared to $36.0 million or $0.72 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net earnings were $41.8 million or $0.87 per share, compared to $44.0 million or $0.88 per share in the prior year quarter. Currency movements in the quarter had no impact on adjusted EPS, as the currency-related losses within operating profit were offset by currency-related benefits included in other expense (income), net. Adjusted EBITDA was $99.3 million, inclusive of a $0.1 million unfavorable currency impact, compared to $99.7 million in the prior year quarter.
Net cash used for operating activities was $70.5 million for the six months ending March 31, 2025, compared to cash flow provided by operating activities of $56.1 million in the prior year period. The increase in cash used for operating activities was largely driven by changes in net working capital and lower earnings.
Capital Allocation
On May 7, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share for the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2025. The dividend will be payable on July 9, 2025 to shareholders of record as the close of business on June 6, 2025. During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company paid dividends totaling $7.3 million to stockholders and completed share repurchases of approximately 1.1 million shares at a total cost of $35.4 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 1.1 million shares of common stock available for repurchase in the future under the Board’s 2018 authorization.
Fiscal 2Q 2025 Operating Segment Results (Unaudited)
Wet Shave (Men’s Systems, Women’s Systems, Disposables, and Shave Preps)
Net sales decreased $7.6 million, or 2.6%. Organic net sales decreased $2.5 million or 0.9%, as growth in international markets, driven by both higher volumes and price, was more than offset by volume declines in Shave Preps and Disposables in North America. Segment profit increased $6.2 million, or 15.3%. Organic segment profit, excluding the unfavorable impact from currency, increased $6.7 million, or 16.5%, as higher gross margins were offset by higher marketing expenses.

Net sales decreased $4.7 million, or 2.0%. Organic net sales decreased $0.2 million, or 0.1%, as growth in Grooming in and Wet One’s, was offset by declines in North America Sun Care. Segment profit decreased $3.6 million, or 6.6%, including an unfavorable impact from foreign currency of $2.4 million, or 4.4%. Organic segment profit decreased $1.2 million, or 2.2%, driven by lower gross margin and higher SG&A expenses, partly offset by lower marketing expenses.

Forward-Looking Statements. This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “expectation,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “belief,” “estimate,” “plan,” “target,” “predict,” “likely,” “will,” “should,” “forecast,” “outlook,” or other similar words or phrases. These statements are not based on historical facts, but instead reflect the Company’s expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events, including, without limitation, the future earnings and performance of Edgewell or any of its businesses. Many factors outside our control could affect the realization of these estimates. These statements are not guarantees of performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict and could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. The Company cannot assure you that any of its expectations, estimates or projections will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included in this document are only made as of the date of this document and the Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, except as required by law. You should not place undue reliance on these statements.

Risks and uncertainties include those detailed from time to time in the Company’s publicly filed documents, including in Item 1A. Risk Factors of Part I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2024.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures. While the Company reports financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S., this discussion also includes non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are referred to as “adjusted” or “organic” and exclude items which are considered by the Company as unusual or non-recurring and which
may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Company’s financial results in any particular period. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures, including reconciliations of measures related to the Company’s fiscal 2025 financial outlook, are included within the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included with this release.
This non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses this non-GAAP information internally to make operating decisions and believes it is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of ongoing operating results. The information can also be used to perform analysis and to better identify operating trends that may otherwise be masked or distorted by the types of items that are excluded. This non-GAAP information is a component in determining management’s incentive compensation. Finally, the Company believes this information provides a higher degree of transparency. The following provides additional detail on the Company’s non-GAAP measures:
- The Company utilizes “adjusted” non-GAAP measures including gross margin, SG&A, operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net earnings, diluted earnings per share, and EBITDA to internally make operating decisions.
- Constant currency measures are calculated by removing the impact of translational and transactional foreign currencies changes, net of foreign currency hedges compared to the prior year. Transactional foreign currency changes are driven by foreign legal entities’ transactions not denominated in local currency.
- The Company analyzes its net sales and segment profit on an organic basis to better measure the comparability of results between periods. Organic net sales and organic segment profit exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency and the impact of acquisitions.
- Segment profit will be impacted by fluctuations in translation and transactional foreign currency. The impact of currency was applied to segments using management’s best estimate.
- Free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities, less capital expenditures plus collections of deferred purchase price of accounts receivable sold and proceeds from sales of fixed assets. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow as a percentage of net earnings adjusted for the net impact of non-cash impairments.
- Net debt is defined as Gross debt less cash. Net debt leverage ratio is defined as net debt less cash divided by trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA.
Basis of Presentation. Please refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2024, as amended by the Company on November 21, 2024.

EDGEWELL PERSONAL CARE COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, in millions, except per share data)
Note 1 — Segments
The Company conducts its business in the following three segments: Wet Shave, Sun and Skin Care, and Feminine Care (collectively, the “Segments,” and each individually, a “Segment”). Segment performance is evaluated based on segment profit, exclusive of general corporate expenses, share-based compensation costs, items which are considered by the Company to be unusual or non-recurring and which may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Company’s financial results in any particular period and the amortization of intangible assets. Financial items, such as interest income and expense, are managed on a global basis at the corporate level. The exclusion of such charges from segment results reflects management’s view on how it evaluates segment performance.
Segment net sales and profitability are presented below:
