Organic Net Sales Returned to Growth; North America Performance Improved Meaningfully
Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA Exceeded Expectations
Full Year Outlook Narrowed; Mid-points for Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA Remain Unchanged
, /PRNewswire/ -- Edgewell Personal Care Company (NYSE: EPC) today announced results for its third fiscal quarter 2026 ended June 30, 2026.
Executive Summary
Third quarter net sales were $570.1 million, an increase of 1.7% compared to the prior year quarter. Organic net sales increased 1.1%. (Organic basis excludes the impact from currency movements.) GAAP Diluted net Earnings Per Share ("EPS") were $0.26, compared to $0.46 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS were $0.72 for the quarter, compared to $0.72 in the prior year quarter. Ended the third quarter with $397.1 million in cash on hand, access to an additional $418.8 million under the Company's U.S. revolving credit facility available. Returned $7.0 million to shareholders in the form of dividends in the third quarter. The Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per common share on August 5, 2026, for the third quarter. "Our third quarter results represent an important step forward in our fiscal 2026 progression, with organic net sales returning to growth, meaningful improvement in North America, and adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA ahead of expectations," said Rod Little, Edgewell's President and Chief Executive Officer. "At the beginning of the year, we anticipated that fiscal 2026 would be a back-half story, and based on our current outlook, we remain on track to deliver on that commitment. Our priority brands continue to gain traction, and we believe that the investments we have made are strengthening our capabilities and improving business performance. We are increasingly confident in the trajectory of the business and the foundation we are building for future growth and value creation."
Unless otherwise noted, reported results in this release are based on continuing operations and exclude the Feminine Care business which is treated as discontinued operations. The Company reports and forecasts results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis and has reconciled non-GAAP results and outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measures later in this release. See non-GAAP Financial Measures for a more detailed explanation, including definitions of various non-GAAP terms used in this release. All comparisons used in this release are for the same period in the prior fiscal year unless otherwise stated.
Fiscal 3Q 2026 Operating Results (Unaudited)
Net sales were $570.1 million in the quarter, an increase of $9.7 million, or 1.7%, including a $3.6 million, or 0.6% favorable impact from currency movements. Organic net sales increased $6.1 million, or 1.1%, reflecting a return to growth in North America, partially offset by lower sales in international markets. North America organic sales increased 3.0%, driven by volume growth across Sun, Skin Care and Grooming, reflecting improving execution, increased distribution and continued strength across several of the Company's priority brands. International organic sales declined 1.4%, primarily reflecting temporary disruption associated with the conflict in the Middle East and short-term supply chain impacts related to the Company's Wet Shave manufacturing consolidation, partially offset by growth in Grooming and several key international markets.
Gross profit was $242.5 million, as compared to $250.1 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin as a percent of net sales was 42.5%,a decrease of 210-basis points. Adjusted gross margin as a percent of net sales decreased 30-basis points, to 44.5% in the quarter. Productivity savings of approximately 200-basis points and 40-basis points of favorable currency movements were more than offset by 160-basis points of core inflation and net tariffs and 110-basis points of unfavorable mix and promotional levels (net of pricing).
Advertising and sales promotion expense ("A&P") was $83.2 million, or 14.6% of net sales, an increase of $7.2 million, compared to $76.0 million, or 13.6% of net sales in the prior year quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") was $108.3 million, or 19.0% of net sales, as compared to $100.7 million, or 18.0% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted SG&A was 18.4% of net sales, compared to 17.6% in the prior year quarter which was primarily driven by higher incentive compensation expense and unfavorable currency impacts in the current year, partly offset by lower people and consulting expenses.
The Company recorded pre-tax restructuring and related costs in support of cost efficiency and effectiveness programs of $24.5 million in the quarter.
Operating income was $25.0 million, or 4.4% of net sales, inclusive of a $2.6 million, or 40-basis points impact from favorable currency movements, compared to income of $45.0 million, or 8.0% of net sales in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating income was $53.0 million, or 9.3% of net sales, compared to $63.6 million, or 11.3% of net sales in the prior year quarter.
Interest expense associated with debt was $16.7 million, compared to $19.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in interest expense was the result of lower borrowing levels on the Company's U.S. revolving credit facility due to the paydown of the facility with the proceeds of the Feminine Care divestiture.
Other (income) expense, net was income of $9.7 million compared to income of $2.9 million in the prior year quarter. The current year quarter included $7.7 million of Transition Services Agreement ("TSA") income. Additionally, the prior year quarter included $2.7 million of other project gains. Currency hedge and remeasurements gains were $0.6 million in the current quarter, compared to a gain of $1.1 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted other (income) expense, net was income of $9.7 million compared to income of $0.2 million in the prior year quarter.
The effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was (17.0)% compared to 31.7% in the prior year period. The current year period reflects a tax expense on a loss. The fiscal 2026 effective tax rate reflects more favorable discrete and unusual items compared to fiscal 2025. The adjusted effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2026 was 26.3%, compared to 28.8%. from the prior year period.
GAAP net earnings from continuing operations was income of $12.3 million or $0.26 per diluted share compared to income of $21.5 million or $0.46 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations were $33.5 million or $0.72 per share, inclusive of a $0.04 favorable currency impact, compared to $33.6 million or $0.72 per share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $78.9 million, inclusive of a $2.1 million favorable currency impact, compared to $81.2 million in the prior year quarter.
Net cash provided by operating activities on a consolidated basis, inclusive of continuing and discontinued operations was $47.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $44.3 million in the prior year period. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was largely driven by changes in net working capital. The third quarter ended with $397.1 million in cash on hand, access to $418.8 million under the Company's U.S. revolving credit facility and an adjusted net debt leverage ratio of 3.7x. The adjusted net debt leverage ratio reflects the trailing 12 month continuing operations EBITDA as well as the cash impact from temporary working capital and other items related to the Feminine Care divestiture.
Capital Allocation
On August 5, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share for the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 2026. The dividend will be payable on October 8, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 9, 2026. During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company paid dividends totaling $7.0 million to stockholders. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $85 million available for share repurchase in the future under the Board's 2025 authorization.
Fiscal 3Q 2026 Operating Segment Results (Unaudited)
Wet Shave (Men's Systems, Women's Systems, Disposables, and Shave Preps)
Net sales decreased $4.2 million, or 1.3%. Organic net sales decreased $6.1 million or 1.9%, as growth in the branded business was more than offset by lower Private Label sales, related to temporary supply constraints in North America and certain international markets. Segment profit decreased $9.2 million, or 20.9%. Organic segment profit, excluding the favorable impact from currency, decreased $10.9 million, or 24.7%, driven by higher SG&A and marketing expenses.
Sun and Skin Care (Sun Care, Men's and Women's Grooming Products, and Wet Ones)
Net sales increased $13.9 million, or 5.7%. Organic net sales increased $12.2 million, or 5.0%, driven by mid-single digit growth in Sun Care in North America and strong global Grooming and Skin Care performance, partly offset by Sun Care declines in international markets. Segment profit increased $0.2 million, or 0.4%, including a favorable impact from foreign currency of $0.9 million, or 2.0%. Organic segment profit decreased $0.7 million, or 1.6%, driven by higher marketing and SG&A expenses, partially offset by higher gross profit.
Full Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Outlook
The Company is providing the following outlook assumptions for fiscal 2026. Unless otherwise stated, this outlook is presented on a continuing-operations basis and excludes the results of the Feminine Care business, which is reported as discontinued operations.
The Company's underlying expectations for fiscal 2026 remain intact, including stronger fourth quarter performance and adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA that are in line with prior expectations.
Reported net sales are now expected to increase in the range of approximately 1.3% to 1.8% (previously increase 0.8% to 3.8%) Includes an estimated 130-basis point positive impact from foreign currency changes (previously 180-basis point positive impact) Organic net sales are expected to be in the range of a flat to 0.5% (previously in the range of 1.0% decrease to a 2.0% increase) GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of flat to $0.20 (previously flat to $0.40). Includes: Restructuring and related costs*, Sun Care reformulation, Legal matters, and Other costs Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $1.80 to $2.00 (previously $1.70 to $2.10) Adjusted gross margin is expected to increase approximately 20-basis points (previously increase 50-basis points). Adjusted operating margin is expected to decrease approximately 80-basis points (previously decrease 60-basis points), reflecting 70-basis points from higher A&P investment and 30-basis points from increased SG&A expense Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $250 to $260 million (previously $245 to $265 million) Other income/expense, net is expected to be approximately $26 million income, (previously $21 million income) Interest expense associated with debt is expected to be approximately $70 million Adjusted effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 22% to 23% Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of approximately 3.0% to 3.5% of net sales Adjusted free cash flow is expected to be approximately $80 to $110 million Adjusted net debt leverage is expected to be approximately in the range of 3.3x to 3.4x at fiscal year end (previously in the range of 3.3x to 3.5x) As previously discussed, in fiscal 2026, the Company is taking specific actions to strengthen its operating model, simplify the organization and improve manufacturing and supply chain efficiency through restructuring and repositioning actions, including the further consolidation of Wet Shave operations. As a result of these actions, the Company expects to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $92 million (previously $90 million) for the full fiscal year.

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 2026 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, earnings per share, EBITDA, and other (income) expense 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. Segment profit is impacted by fluctuations in translation and transactional foreign currency. The impact of currency was applied to segments using management's best estimate. The Company presents certain metrics on a consolidated and continuing operations basis to help with comparability. 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. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow, adjusted for the following: the one-time operating cash flow impacts associated directly with Feminine Care divestiture including tax, working capital, and deal related fees and expenses. Net debt is defined as Gross debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net debt leverage ratio is defined as net debt divided by trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net debt leverage ratio is defined as net debt divided by continuing operations trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA, which includes Transition Services Agreement income realized in fiscal Q2 and Q3 (five months), plus $15 million of pro forma Transition Services Agreement income (seven months). Refer to Supplemental Slides for fiscal year 2025 quarterly recast adjusted EBITDA reconciliation for continuing operations filed on February 9, 2026. Basis of Presentation. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the results of the Feminine Care segment are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Feminine Care disposal group as assets and liabilities held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2025. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are presented on a consolidated basis with both continuing operations and discontinued operations. All amounts, percentages and disclosures for all periods presented reflect only the continuing operations of Edgewell unless otherwise noted.
Please refer to the Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 5, 2026.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, in millions, except per share data)
Note 1 — Segments
The Company conducts its business in the following two segments: Wet Shave and Sun and Skin 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.
