Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business

Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company” or “we,” which reference shall, unless the context requires otherwise, be deemed to refer to Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and all of its direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) is engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution of over-the-counter (“OTC”) healthcare and household cleaning products to mass merchandisers and drug, food, dollar, convenience and club stores in North America (the United States and Canada), and in Australia and certain other international markets. Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. is a holding company with no operations and is also the parent guarantor of the senior credit facility and the senior notes described in Note 8.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are considered necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Our fiscal year ends on March 31^st of each year. References in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related notes to a year (e.g., “2018”) mean our fiscal year ending or ended on March 31^st of that year. Operating results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

Use of Estimates

Reclassification

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), we have reclassified cash flows on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows related to excess tax benefits from a financing activity to an operating activity for all periods presented. The impact of the reclassification on our Financial Statements was not material.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the selling price is fixed or determinable, (iii) the product has been shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risk of loss, and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We have determined that these criteria are met and the transfer of the risk of loss generally occurs when the product is received by the customer, and, accordingly, we recognize revenue at that time. Provisions are made for estimated discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated product returns at the time of sale based on our historical experience.

As is customary in the consumer products industry, we participate in the promotional programs of our customers to enhance the sale of our products. The cost of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units sold during a finite period of time. These promotional programs consist of direct-to-consumer incentives, such as coupons and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to our customers, such as allowances for new distribution, including slotting fees, and cooperative advertising. Estimates of the costs of these promotional programs are based on (i) historical sales experience, (ii) the current promotional offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current market conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing personnel. We recognize the cost of such sales incentives by recording an estimate of such cost as a reduction of revenue, at the later of (a) the date the related revenue is recognized, or (b) the date when a particular sales incentive is offered. At the completion of a promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted to actual results.

- 5-

Due to the nature of the consumer products industry, we are required to estimate future product returns. Accordingly, we record an estimate of product returns concurrent with recording sales, which is made after analyzing (i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes in customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of our product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation, packaging and advertising.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes product costs, warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping costs, and handling and storage costs. Warehousing, shipping and handling and storage costs were $15.1 million and $28.6 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, and $10.9 million and $21.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.

Advertising and Promotion Costs

Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Allowances for distribution costs associated with products, including slotting fees, are recognized as a reduction of sales. Under these slotting fee distribution arrangements, the retailers allow our products to be placed on the stores' shelves in exchange for such fees.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this update involve several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the amendments in this update were effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We adopted ASU 2016-09 effective April 1, 2017, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. The amendments in this update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards, under which an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of ASU 2015-11, effective April 1, 2017, did not have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairments tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Financial Statements and whether to early adopt this ASU.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Financial Statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in this update provide clarification and guidance on eight cash flow classification issues. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The amendments in this update include a new FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842, which supersedes Topic 840. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities as of the beginning of interim or annual reporting periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Financial Statements.

- 6-

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Topic 606, including new FASB ASC 606, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in FASB ASC 605. The new guidance will eliminate industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. This ASU primarily states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This ASU will also require additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 from annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. With the issuance of ASU 2016-08 in March 2016, the FASB clarified the implementation guidance on principals versus agent considerations in FASB ASC 606. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, which clarified implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations and licensing in FASB ASC 606. Certain narrow aspects of the guidance in FASB ASC 606 were amended with the issuances of ASU 2016-12 in May 2016 and ASU 2016-20 in December 2016. We expect to adopt this guidance when effective using the modified retrospective transition method. We have made substantial progress in completing our review of the impact of this guidance. Our implementation approach includes performing a detailed study of the various types of agreements that we have with our customers and assessing conformance of our current accounting practices with the new standard. We currently do not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on our Financial Statements, revenue recognition practices, or our internal controls. We continue to monitor additional amendments, clarifications and interpretations issued by the FASB that may affect our current conclusions.

2. Acquisitions

Acquisition of Fleet

On January 26, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of C.B. Fleet Company, Inc. ("Fleet") pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 22, 2016, for $823.7 million plus cash on hand at closing and subject to certain adjustments related to net working capital. The purchase price was funded by available cash on hand, additional borrowings under our asset-based revolving credit facility, and a new $740.0 million senior secured incremental term loan. As a result of the merger, we acquired multiple women's health, gastrointestinal and dermatological care OTC brands, including Summer’s Eve, Fleet, and Boudreaux's Butt Paste, as well as a “mix and fill” manufacturing facility in Lynchburg, Virginia. The financial results from the Fleet acquisition are included in the Company's North American and International OTC Healthcare segments.

The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Business Combinations topic of the FASB ASC 805, which requires that the total cost of an acquisition be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the date of acquisition.

We prepared an analysis of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The following table summarizes our allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the January 26, 2017 acquisition date.

- 7-



(In thousands)	January 26, 2017
Cash	$	19,884
Accounts receivable	25,293
Inventories	20,812
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	17,024
Property, plant and equipment	38,661
Goodwill	273,058
Intangible assets	747,600
Other long-term assets	1,137
Total assets acquired	1,143,469

Accounts payable	10,412
Accrued expenses	22,895
Deferred income taxes - long term	261,555
Other long term liabilities	24,884
Total liabilities assumed	319,746
Total purchase price	$	823,723

Based on this preliminary analysis, we allocated $648.7 million to non-amortizable intangible assets and $98.9 million to amortizable intangible assets. We are amortizing the purchased amortizable intangible assets on a straight-line basis over an estimated weighted average useful life of 18.7 years.

We recorded goodwill of $273.1 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired. The goodwill is a result of acquiring and retaining workforces and expected synergies from integrating Fleet's operations into the Company's. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The following table provides our unaudited pro forma revenues, net income and net income per basic and diluted common share had the results of Fleet's operations been included in our operations commencing on April 1, 2016, based on available information related to Fleet's operations. This pro forma information is not necessarily indicative either of the combined results of operations that actually would have been realized by us had the Fleet acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the period for which the pro forma information is presented, or of future results.

3. Divestitures and Sale of License Rights

Divestitures

On July 7, 2016, we completed the sale of the Pediacare, New Skin and Fiber Choice brands for $40.0 million plus the cost of inventory. During the six months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded a pre-tax loss on sale of $56.2 million.

- 8-

Concurrent with the completion of the sale of these brands, we entered into a transitional services agreement with the buyer, whereby we agreed to provide the buyer with various services, including marketing, operations, finance and other services, from the date of the acquisition through January 7, 2017. We also entered into an option agreement with the buyer to purchase Dermoplast at a specified earnings multiple, as defined in the option agreement. The buyer paid a $1.25 million deposit for this option in September 2016 and later notified us of its election to exercise the option. The sale was completed in December 2016.

Sale of license rights

Historically, we received royalty income from the licensing of the names of certain of our brands in geographic areas or markets in which we do not directly compete. We have had royalty agreements for our Comet brand for several years, which included options on behalf of the licensee to purchase license rights in certain geographic areas and markets in perpetuity. In December 2014, we amended these agreements and we sold rights to use of the Comet brand in certain Eastern European countries to a third-party licensee in exchange for $10.0 million as a partial early buyout of the license. The amended agreement provided that we would continue to receive royalty payments of $1.0 million per quarter for the remaining geographic areas and also granted the licensee an option to acquire the license rights in the remaining geographic areas any time after June 30, 2016. In July 2016, the licensee elected to exercise its option. In August 2016, we received $11.0 million for the purchase of the remaining license rights and, as a result, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $1.2 million and reduced our indefinite-lived trademarks by $9.0 million. Furthermore, the licensee was no longer required to make additional royalty payments to us, and as a result, our future royalty income was reduced accordingly.

4. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

5. Goodwill

A reconciliation of the activity affecting goodwill by operating segment is as follows:

Balance — September 30, 2017	$	580,934	$	33,209	$	6,245	$	620,388

(a) Amount relates to a measurement period adjustment recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2017, associated with our Fleet acquisition.

As discussed in Note 2, on January 26, 2017, we completed the acquisition of Fleet. In connection with this acquisition, we recorded goodwill of $273.1 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired.

Under accounting guidelines, goodwill is not amortized, but must be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below the carrying amount.

- 9-

On an annual basis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if conditions indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable, management performs a review of the values assigned to goodwill and tests for impairment. At February 28, 2017, during our annual test for goodwill impairment, there were no indicators of impairment under the analysis. Accordingly, no impairment charge was recorded in fiscal 2017. We utilize the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of our reporting units as part of the goodwill impairment test. We also considered our market capitalization at February 28, 2017, which was the date of our annual review, as compared to the aggregate fair values of our reporting units, to assess the reasonableness of our estimates pursuant to the discounted cash flow methodology. The estimates and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of our reporting units and the valuation of the underlying assets and liabilities are inherently subject to significant uncertainties. Consequently, changing rates of interest and inflation, declining sales or margins, increases in competition, changing consumer preferences, technical advances, or reductions in advertising and promotion may require an impairment charge to be recorded in the future. As of September 30, 2017, no events have occurred that would indicate potential impairment of goodwill.

6. Intangible Assets, net

Intangible assets, net — September 30, 2017	$	2,591,223	$	302,917	$	2,894,140

As discussed in Note 2, on January 26, 2017, we completed the acquisition of Fleet. In connection with this acquisition, we allocated $747.6 million to intangible assets based on our analysis.

Under accounting guidelines, indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but must be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below the carrying amount. Additionally, at each reporting period, an evaluation must be made to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and are also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable and exceeds its fair value.

On an annual basis during the fourth fiscal quarter, or more frequently if conditions indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable, management performs a review of both the values and, if applicable, useful lives assigned to intangible assets and tests for impairment.

We utilize the excess earnings method to estimate the fair value of our individual indefinite-lived intangible assets. We also considered our market capitalization at February 28, 2017, which was the date of our annual impairment review. The estimates and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of our reporting units and the valuation of the underlying assets and liabilities are inherently subject to significant uncertainties. Consequently, changing rates of interest and inflation, declining sales or margins, increases in competition, changing consumer preferences, technical advances, or reductions in advertising and promotion may require an impairment charge to be recorded in the future. As of September 30, 2017, no events have occurred that would indicate potential impairment of intangible assets.

9. Fair Value Measurements

For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short maturity of these amounts.

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market assuming an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 established market (observable inputs) as the preferred source of fair value, to be followed by the Company's assumptions of fair value based on hypothetical transactions (unobservable inputs) in the absence of observable market inputs. Based upon the above, the following fair value hierarchy was created:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, as well as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not considered active; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed by the Company using estimates and assumptions reflective of those that would be utilized by a market participant.

The market values have been determined based on market values for similar instruments adjusted for certain factors. As such, the 2016 Senior Notes, the 2013 Senior Notes, the 2012 Term B-4 Loans, and the 2012 ABL Revolver are measured in Level 2 of the above hierarchy (see summary below detailing the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these borrowings at September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017).



	September 30, 2017				March 31, 2017
(In thousands)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
2016 Senior Notes	$	350,000	$	375,375	$	350,000	$	367,500
2013 Senior Notes	400,000		412,000		400,000		409,000
2012 Term B-4 Loans	1,277,000		1,283,385		1,382,000		1,395,820
2012 ABL Revolver	90,000		90,000		90,000		90,000

At September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, we did not have any assets or liabilities measured in Level 1 or 3.

In accordance with ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value ("NAV") per share as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.

10. Stockholders' Equity

The Company is authorized to issue 250.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 5.0 million shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. The Board of Directors may direct the issuance of the undesignated preferred stock in one or more series and determine preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof.

Each share of common stock has the right to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the Board of Directors, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of outstanding stock having priority rights as to dividends. No dividends have been declared or paid on the Company's common stock through September 30, 2017.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we repurchased 933 shares and 0 shares, respectively, of restricted common stock from our employees pursuant to the provisions of various employee restricted stock awards. The repurchases for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were at an average price of $51.60. During the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we repurchased 20,549 shares and 24,988 shares, respectively, of restricted common stock from our employees pursuant to the provisions of various employee restricted stock awards. The repurchases for the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were at an average price of $52.33 and $55.82, respectively. All of the repurchased shares have been recorded as treasury stock.

11. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The table below presents accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”), which affects equity and results from recognized transactions and other economic events, other than transactions with owners in their capacity as owners.

AOCI consisted of the following at September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017:



	September 30,			March 31,
(In thousands)	2017			2017
Components of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Unrecognized net loss on pension plans	(251		)	(252		)
Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax	$	(22,516	)	$	(26,352	)

As of September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, no amounts were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings.

12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, which includes stock options and restricted stock units. In loss periods, the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and restricted stock units has an anti-dilutive effect, and therefore these instruments are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Six Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands, except per share data)	2017		2016		2017		2016

Denominator for diluted earnings per share	53,539		53,345		53,524		53,329

Earnings per Common Share:

Diluted net earnings per share	$	0.57	$	0.60	$	1.20	$	0.50

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, there were 0.4 million and 0.2 million shares, respectively, attributable to outstanding stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, there were 0.4 million and 0.2 million shares, respectively, attributable to outstanding stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

13. Share-Based Compensation

In connection with our initial public offering, the Board of Directors adopted the 2005 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which provides for grants of up to a maximum of 5.0 million shares of restricted stock, stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and other equity-based awards. In June 2014, the Board of Directors approved, and in July 2014, our stockholders ratified, an increase of an additional 1.8 million shares of our common stock for issuance under the Plan, increased the maximum number of shares subject to stock options that may be awarded to any one participant under the Plan during any fiscal 12-month period from 1.0 million to 2.5 million shares, and extended the term of the Plan by ten years, to February 2025. Directors, officers and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for the Company, are eligible for grants under the Plan.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income were $3.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively, and the related income tax benefit recognized was $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income were $2.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively, and the related income tax benefit recognized was $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

At September 30, 2017, there were $10.7 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan, based on management's estimate of the shares that will ultimately vest. We expect to recognize such costs over a weighted-average period of 1.0 year. The total fair value of options and restricted stock units vested during the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $6.7 million and $6.0 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we received cash from the exercise of stock options of $1.5 million and $3.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we realized $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in tax benefits from the tax deductions resulting from restricted stock issuances and stock option exercises. At September 30, 2017, there were 2.2 million shares available for issuance under the Plan.

On May 8, 2017, the Compensation and Talent Management Committee of our Board of Directors granted 35,593 performance units, 54,773 RSUs and stock options to acquire 182,823 shares of our common stock to certain executive officers and employees under the Plan. The stock options were granted at an exercise price of $56.11 per share, which was equal to the closing price for our common stock on the date of the grant.

Pursuant to the Plan, each of the independent members of the Board of Directors received a grant of 2,564 RSUs on August 1, 2017. The RSUs are fully vested upon receipt of the award and will be settled by delivery to the director of one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of the director's (i) death, (ii) disability or (iii) the six-month anniversary of the date on which the director's Board membership ceases for reasons other than death or disability.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted to employees under the Plan generally vest in three years, primarily upon the attainment of certain time vesting thresholds, and, in the case of performance share units, may also be contingent on the attainment of certain performance goals of the Company, including revenue and earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization targets. The RSUs provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control, as defined in the Plan. The RSUs granted to employees generally vest either ratably over three years or in their entirety on the three-year anniversary of the date of the grant. Upon vesting, the units will be settled in shares of our common stock. Termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the RSUs, unless otherwise accelerated by the Compensation and Talent Management Committee or, in the case of RSUs granted in May 2017, subject to pro-rata vesting in the event of death, disability or retirement. The RSUs granted to directors vest either in their entirety one year after the date of grant so long as membership on the Board of Directors continues through the vesting date, or immediately upon grant, and will be settled by delivery to the director of one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of the director's (i) death, (ii) disability or (iii) the six-month anniversary of the date on which the director's Board membership ceases for reasons other than death or disability.

The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of RSUs granted during the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $55.61 and $55.65, respectively.

A summary of the Company's RSUs granted under the Plan is presented below:

Vested at September 30, 2017	90.5		29.88

Options

The Plan provides that the exercise price of options granted shall be no less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date the options are granted. Options granted have a term of no greater than ten years from the date of grant and vest in accordance with a schedule determined at the time the option is granted, generally three to five years. The option awards provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control, as defined in the Plan. Except in the case of death, disability or retirement, termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the unvested stock options. Vested stock options will remain exercisable by the employee after termination of employment, subject to the terms in the Plan.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock and other factors, including the historical volatilities of comparable companies. We use appropriate historical data, as well as current data, to estimate option exercise and employee termination behaviors. Employees that are expected to exhibit similar exercise or termination behaviors are grouped together for the purposes of valuation. The expected terms of the options granted are derived from our historical experience, management's estimates, and consideration of information derived from the public filings of companies similar to us, and represent the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate represents the yield on U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the expected term of the granted options.

The weighted-average grant-date fair values of the options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were $21.20 and $21.87, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised in the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $1.2 million.

14. Income Taxes

Income taxes are recorded in our quarterly financial statements based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustments for discrete events, should they occur. The effective rates used in the calculation of income taxes were 37.7% and 35.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective rates used in the calculation of income taxes were 36.8% and 35.5% for the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to state tax increases that occurred during the period.

The balance in our uncertain tax liability was $8.1 million at September 30, 2017 and $3.7 million March 31, 2017. The increase in our uncertain tax liability was related to a measurement period adjustment associated with our Fleet acquisition. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. We did not incur any material interest or penalties related to income taxes in any of the periods presented.

15. Employee Retirement Plans

The primary components of Net Periodic Benefits consist of the following:



(In thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30, 2017			Six Months Ended September 30, 2017
Interest cost	$	634		$	1,263
Expected return on assets	(725		)	(1,451		)
Net periodic benefit cost (income)	$	(91	)	$	(188	)

During the six months ended September 30, 2017, the Company contributed $0.2 million to our non-qualified defined benefit plan and made no contributions to the qualified defined benefit plan. During the remainder of fiscal 2018, we expect to contribute an additional $0.2 million to the non-qualified plan and make no contributions to the qualified plan.

- 16-

16. Commitments and Contingencies

We are involved from time to time in legal matters and other claims incidental to our business. We review outstanding claims and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess the probability and amount of a potential loss. These assessments are re-evaluated at each reporting period and as new information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost of resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different than the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible under GAAP to establish a litigation reserve until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be insufficient time to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case of a quickly negotiated settlement). We believe the resolution of routine legal matters and other claims incidental to our business, taking our reserves into account, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Purchase Commitments

We have supply agreements for the manufacture of some of our products. The following table shows the minimum amounts that we are committed to pay under these agreements:



(In thousands)
Year Ending March 31,	Amount
2018 (Remaining six months ending March 31, 2018)	$	2,836

17. Concentrations of Risk

Our revenues are concentrated in the areas of OTC Healthcare and Household Cleaning products. We sell our products to mass merchandisers and drug, food, dollar, convenience and club stores. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, approximately 40.8% and 42.0%, respectively, of our total revenues were derived from our five top selling brands. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, approximately 41.6% and 42.0%, respectively, of our total revenues were derived from our five top selling brands. Two customers, Walmart and Walgreens, accounted for more than 10% of our gross revenues for each of the periods presented. Walmart accounted for approximately 25.3% and 25.4%, respectively, of our gross revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017. Walgreens accounted for approximately 8.7% and 8.9%, respectively, of gross revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017. Walmart accounted for approximately 21.1% and 20.9%, respectively, of our gross revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016. Walgreens accounted for approximately 10.7% and 10.5%, respectively, of gross revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016. At September 30, 2017, approximately 24.9% and 8.3% of accounts receivable were owed by Walmart and Walgreens, respectively.

We manage product distribution in the continental United States through a third-party distribution center in St. Louis, Missouri. A serious disruption, such as an earthquake, tornado, flood or fire, to the main distribution center could damage our inventories and could materially impair our ability to distribute our products to customers in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost. We could incur significantly higher costs and experience longer lead times associated with the distribution of our products to our customers during the time that it takes us to reopen or replace our distribution center. As a result, any such disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, sales and profitability.

At September 30, 2017, we had relationships with 110 third-party manufacturers. Of those, we had long-term contracts with 45 manufacturers that produced items that accounted for approximately 79.5% of gross sales for the six months ended September 30, 2017. At September 30, 2016, we had relationships with 116 third-party manufacturers. Of those, we had long-term contracts with 49 manufacturers that produced items that accounted for approximately 78.8% of gross sales for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The fact that we do not have long-term contracts with certain manufacturers means that they could cease manufacturing our products at any time and for any reason or initiate arbitrary and costly price increases, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Although we are in the process of negotiating long-term contracts with certain key manufacturers, we may not be able to reach a timely agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. This discussion and analysis may contain forward-looking statements that involve certain risks, assumptions and uncertainties. Future results could differ materially from the discussion that follows for many reasons, including the factors described in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 and in future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

See also “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page 38 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

General

We are engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution of well-recognized, brand name over-the-counter ("OTC") healthcare and household cleaning products to mass merchandisers and drug, food, dollar, convenience, and club stores in North America (the United States and Canada) and in Australia and certain other international markets. We use the strength of our brands, our established retail distribution network, a low-cost operating model and our experienced management team to our competitive advantage.

We have grown our brand portfolio both organically and through acquisitions. We develop our existing brands by investing in new product lines, brand extensions and strong advertising support. Acquisitions of OTC brands have also been an important part of our growth strategy. We have acquired strong and well-recognized brands from consumer products, pharmaceutical and private equity companies. While many of these brands have long histories of brand development and investment, we believe that, at the time we acquired them, most were considered “non-core” by their previous owners. As a result, these acquired brands did not benefit from adequate management focus and marketing support during the period prior to their acquisition, which created opportunities for us to reinvigorate these brands and improve their performance post-acquisition. After adding a core brand to our portfolio, we seek to increase its sales, market share and distribution in both existing and new channels through our established retail distribution network. We pursue this growth through increased spending on advertising and promotional support, new sales and marketing strategies, improved packaging and formulations, and innovative development of brand extensions.

Acquisitions

Acquisition of Fleet

The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Business Combinations topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, which requires that the total cost of an acquisition be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the date of acquisition.

Total segment revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were $258.0 million, an increase of $43.0 million, or 20.0%, versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. The $43.0 million increase was primarily related to an increase in the North American OTC Healthcare segment, which accounted for $42.9 million, and the International OTC Healthcare segment, which accounted for $2.2 million, largely due to the acquisition of Fleet. The Fleet brands, acquired in January 2017, accounted for $51.7 million of revenues in the North American OTC Healthcare and International OTC Healthcare segments not included in the comparable period in the prior year. The increase attributable to Fleet revenues was partially offset by a decrease of $5.9 million resulting from the divestiture of certain non-core brands. Excluding the impact of the acquisition and divestitures, total segment revenues decreased by $2.8 million.

North American OTC Healthcare Segment

Revenues for the North American OTC Healthcare segment increased $42.9 million, or 24.9%, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. The $42.9 million increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Fleet, which accounted for $48.9 million of revenues. Excluding the revenue increase contributed by Fleet, and the reduction of $5.8 million in revenues resulting from the divestiture of certain non-core brands, revenues decreased by $0.2 million due to increased in transit shipments at the end of September 2017.

International OTC Healthcare Segment

Revenues for the International OTC Healthcare segment increased $2.2 million, or 11.4%, during three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. The $2.2 million increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Fleet, which accounted for $2.8 million of revenues. Excluding the revenue increase contributed by Fleet, and the reduction of $0.1 million in revenues resulting from the divestiture of certain non-core brands, revenues decreased by $0.5 million.

Household Cleaning Segment

Revenues for the Household Cleaning segment decreased by $2.0 million, or 8.5%, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased sales related to the Comet brand.

Cost of sales increased $22.8 million, or 25.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016.

International OTC Healthcare Segment

Contribution margin for the International OTC Healthcare segment decreased $0.4 million, or 4.7%, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. As a percentage of International OTC Healthcare revenues, contribution margin decreased to 38.5% during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 45.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The contribution margin decrease as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to the gross profit decrease as a percentage of revenues in the International OTC Healthcare segment discussed above.

Household Cleaning Segment

Contribution margin for the Household Cleaning segment decreased $0.9 million, or 19.0%, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus the three months ended September 30, 2016. As a percentage of Household Cleaning revenues, contribution margin decreased to 17.4% during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 19.6% during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $21.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus $18.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation costs associated with the acquisition of Fleet.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $7.2 million and $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to higher amortization expense during the current year period as a result of the Fleet acquisition.

(Gain) Loss on Sale of Assets

We recorded a net gain on sales of assets of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, which relates to two separate transactions. On July 7, 2016, the Company completed the sale of Pedicare, New Skin and Fiber Choice, which were non-core OTC brands and were reported under the North American OTC Healthcare segment in the Cough & Cold, Dermatologicals and Gastrointestinal product groups, respectively. As a result, we recorded a preliminary pre-tax loss on sale of assets of $55.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and increased the loss by $0.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in loss recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2016 was more than offset by a pre-tax gain of $1.2 million related to the sale of a royalty license for our Comet brand in certain geographic areas.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense was $26.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 versus $20.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in net interest expense was primarily attributable to higher borrowings due to the Fleet acquisition. The average indebtedness increased to $2.2 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $1.5 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The average cost of borrowing decreased to 5.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 5.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes during the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $18.6 million versus $18.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The effective tax rate during the three months ended September 30, 2017 was 37.7% versus 35.9% during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily due to state tax rate increases. The estimated effective tax rate for the remaining six months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 is expected to be approximately 36.5%, excluding discrete items that may occur.

Total segment revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2017 were $514.6 million, an increase of $90.0 million, or 21.2%, versus the six months ended September 30, 2016. The $90.0 million increase was primarily related to an increase in the North American OTC Healthcare segment, which accounted for $86.6 million, and the International OTC Healthcare segment, which accounted for $7.2 million, largely due to the acquisition of Fleet. The Fleet brands, acquired in January 2017, accounted for $106.5 million of revenues in the North American OTC Healthcare and International OTC Healthcare segments not included in the comparable period in the prior year. The increase attributable to Fleet revenues was partially offset by a decrease of $17.0 million resulting from the divestiture of certain non-core brands. Excluding the impact of acquisition and divestitures, total segment revenues increased by $0.5 million.

General and administrative expenses were $41.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017 versus $38.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation costs associated with the acquisition of Fleet.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $14.4 million and $12.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to higher amortization expense during the current year period as a result of the Fleet acquisition.

(Gain) Loss on Sale of Assets

We recorded a net loss on sales of assets of $55.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016, which relates to two separate transactions. On July 7, 2016, the Company completed the sale of Pediacare, New Skin and Fiber Choice, which were non-core OTC brands and were reported under the North American OTC Healthcare segment in the Cough & Cold, Dermatologicals and Gastrointestinal product groups, respectively. As a result, we recorded a pre-tax loss on sale of these assets of $56.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our primary source of cash comes from our cash flow from operations. In the past, we have supplemented this source of cash with various debt facilities, primarily in connection with acquisitions. We have financed our operations, and expect to continue to finance our operations over the next twelve months, with a combination of funds generated from operations and borrowings. Our principal uses of cash are for operating expenses, debt service and acquisitions. Based on our current levels of operations and anticipated growth, excluding acquisitions, we believe that our cash generated from operations and our existing credit facilities will be adequate to finance our working capital and capital expenditures through the next twelve months, although no assurance can be given in this regard.

The following table summarizes our cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.



	Six Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands)	2017			2016
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating Activities	$	108,540		$	101,082
Investing Activities	(3,815		)	51,024
Financing Activities	(104,609		)	(148,481		)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $108.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $101.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The $7.5 million increase was primarily due to an increase in net income before non-cash items, partly offset by increased working capital.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $3.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $51.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The change was primarily due to proceeds of $52.4 million received in the prior period for the sale of intangible assets.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $104.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $148.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2016. The change was primarily due to higher debt repayments in the prior year.

Capital Resources

2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver:

On January 31, 2012, Prestige Brands, Inc. (the "Borrower") entered into a new senior secured credit facility, which originally consisted of (i) a $660.0 million term loan facility (the “2012 Term Loan”) with a 7-year maturity and (ii) a $50.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “2012 ABL Revolver”) with a 5-year maturity. The 2012 Term Loan was issued with an original issue discount of 1.5% of the principal amount thereof, resulting in net proceeds to the Borrower of $650.1 million. In connection with these loan facilities, we incurred $20.6 million of costs, which were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the terms of the facilities. The 2012 Term Loan is unconditionally guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its domestic 100% owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company.

On February 21, 2013, we entered into Amendment No. 1 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 1") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 1 provided for the refinancing of all of the Borrower's existing Term B Loans with new Term B-1 Loans (the "Term B-1 Loans"). The interest rate on the Term B-1 Loans under Term Loan Amendment No. 1 was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.75% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00%, plus a margin. In addition, Term Loan Amendment No. 1 provided the Borrower with certain additional capacity to prepay subordinated debt, the then-outstanding 8.125% senior unsecured notes due 2020 and certain other unsecured indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver.

On September 3, 2014, we entered into Amendment No. 2 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 2") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 2 provided for (i) the creation of a new class of Term B-2 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-2 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $720.0 million, (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief, and (iii) an interest rate on (x) the Term B-1 Loans that was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 3.125% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00%, plus a margin, and (y) the Term B-2 Loans that was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 3.50% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%, or an alternate base rate, with a floor of 2.00%, plus a margin (with a margin step-down to 3.25% per annum, based upon achievement of a specified secured net leverage ratio).

Also on September 3, 2014, we entered into Amendment No. 3 ("ABL Amendment No. 3") to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 3 provided for (i) a $40.0 million increase in revolving commitments under the 2012 ABL Revolver and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility. Borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver, as amended, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin, plus, at our option, either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate of Citibank, N.A., and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month, adjusted for certain additional costs, plus 1.00% or (ii) a LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs. The applicable margin for borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver may be increased to 2.00% or 2.25% for LIBOR borrowings and 1.00% or 1.25% for base-rate borrowings, depending on average excess availability under the 2012 ABL Revolver during the prior fiscal quarter. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the 2012 ABL Revolver, we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the 2012 ABL Revolver in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder. The initial commitment fee rate is 0.50% per annum. The commitment fee rate will be reduced to 0.375% per annum at any time when the average daily unused commitments for the prior quarter is less than a percentage of total commitments by an amount set forth in the credit agreement covering the 2012 ABL Revolver. We may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the 2012 ABL Revolver at any time without a premium or penalty.

On May 8, 2015, we entered into Amendment No. 3 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 3") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 3 provided for (i) the creation of a new class of Term B-3 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-3 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $852.5 million, which combined the outstanding balances of the Term B-1 Loans of $207.5 million and the Term B-2 Loans of $645.0 million, and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief.

On June 9, 2015, we entered into Amendment No. 4 (“ABL Amendment No. 4”) to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 4 provided for (i) a $35.0 million increase in the accordion feature under the 2012 ABL Revolver, (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief, and (iii) extended the maturity date of the 2012 ABL Revolver to June 9, 2020.

In connection with acquisition of DenTek Holdings, Inc. ("DenTek") on February 5, 2016, we entered into Amendment No. 5 (“ABL Amendment No. 5”) to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 5 temporarily suspended certain financial and related reporting covenants in the 2012 ABL Revolver until the earliest of (i) the date that was 60 calendar days following February 4, 2016, (ii) the date upon which certain of DenTek’s assets were included in the Company’s borrowing base under the 2012 ABL Revolver and (iii) the date upon which the Company received net proceeds from an offering of debt securities.

In connection with the Fleet acquisition, on January 26, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 4 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 4") to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 4 provided for (i) the refinancing of all of our outstanding term loans and the creation of a new class of Term B-4 Loans under the 2012 Term Loan (the "Term B-4 Loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $1,427.0 million and (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility and financial maintenance covenant relief. In addition, Citibank, N.A. was succeeded by Barclays Bank PLC as administrative agent under the 2012 Term Loan. The Term B-4 loans mature on January 26, 2024.

The 2012 Term Loan, as amended, bears interest at a rate that is based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.75% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%, or an alternative base rate plus a margin (with a margin step-down to 2.50% per annum based upon achievement of a specified first lien net leverage ratio). For the six months ended September 30, 2017, the average interest rate on the 2012 Term Loan was 4.4%.

- 33-

Also on January 26, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 6 ("ABL Amendment No. 6") to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 6 provided for (i) a $40.0 million increase in revolving commitments under the 2012 ABL Revolver, (ii) an extension of the maturity date of revolving commitments to January 26, 2022, and (iii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment and debt incurrence flexibility consistent with Term Loan Amendment No. 4. We may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the 2012 ABL Revolver at any time without a premium or penalty. For the six months ended September 30, 2017, the average interest rate on the amounts borrowed under the 2012 ABL Revolver was 2.5%.

We used the proceeds from the Term B-4 Loans and borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver to finance the acquisition of Fleet, to refinance our outstanding term loans, and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Fleet acquisition.

2013 Senior Notes:

On December 17, 2013, the Borrower issued $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes, with an interest rate of 5.375% and a maturity date of December 15, 2021 (the "2013 Senior Notes"). The 2013 Senior Notes are guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its 100% domestic owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company. In connection with the 2013 Senior Notes offering, we incurred $7.2 million of costs, which were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the term of the 2013 Senior Notes.

2016 Senior Notes:

On February 19, 2016, the Borrower completed the sale of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior notes due 2024 (the “2016 Senior Notes”), pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated February 16, 2016, among the Borrower, the guarantors party thereto and the initial purchasers party thereto. The 2016 Senior Notes are guaranteed by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and certain of its domestic 100% owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company. In connection with the 2016 Senior Notes offering, we incurred $5.5 million of costs, which were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the term of the 2016 Senior Notes.

The 2016 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated February 19, 2016 (the “Indenture”). The Indenture provides, among other things, that interest will be payable on the 2016 Senior Notes on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2016, until their maturity date of March 1, 2024. The 2016 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Borrower.

Redemptions and Restrictions:

At any time prior to December 15, 2016, we had the option to redeem the 2013 Senior Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of notes redeemed, plus an applicable "make-whole premium" calculated as set forth in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. On or after December 15, 2016, we have the option to redeem some or all of the 2013 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes. In addition, at any time prior to December 15, 2016, we had the option to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 105.375% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings, provided that certain conditions were met. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 2013 Senior Notes), the Borrower will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2013 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Senior Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.

We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2016 Senior Notes at any time on or after March 1, 2019 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. We may also redeem all or any portion of the 2016 Senior Notes at any time prior to March 1, 2019, at a price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus a "make-whole premium" calculated as set forth in the Indenture, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, before March 1, 2019, we may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Senior Notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the Indenture, provided that certain conditions are met. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), we will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2016 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.

The credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions, whereby a default pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain indebtedness will cause a default on the remaining indebtedness under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes.

As of September 30, 2017, we had an aggregate of $2,117.0 million of outstanding indebtedness, which consisted of the following:


•	$400.0 million of 5.375% 2013 Senior Notes due 2021;


•	$350.0 million of 6.375% 2016 Senior Notes due 2024;


•	$1,277.0 million of borrowings under the Term B-4 Loans; and


•	$90.0 million of borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver.

As of September 30, 2017, we had $85.0 million of an additional borrowing capacity under the 2012 ABL Revolver.

As we deem appropriate, we may from time to time utilize derivative financial instruments to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates associated with our long-term debt obligations or other derivative financial instruments. While we have utilized derivative financial instruments in the past, we did not have any significant derivative financial instruments outstanding at either September 30, 2017 or March 31, 2017 or during any of the periods presented. We have not entered into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes; all of our derivatives have been over-the-counter instruments with liquid markets.

Our debt facilities contain various financial covenants, including provisions that require us to maintain certain leverage, interest coverage and fixed charge ratios. The credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and 2016 Senior Notes contain provisions that accelerate our indebtedness on certain changes in control and restrict us from undertaking specified corporate actions, including asset dispositions, acquisitions, payment of dividends and other specified payments, repurchasing our equity securities in the public markets, incurrence of indebtedness, creation of liens, making loans and investments and transactions with affiliates. Specifically, we must:

•

Have a leverage ratio of less than 7.50 to 1.0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our consolidated total net debt as of the last day of the fiscal quarter to our trailing twelve month consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items (“EBITDA”)). Our leverage ratio requirement decreases over time to 7.25 to 1.0 on March 31, 2018 and .25 to 1.0 per quarter until December 31, 2018 and 6.50 to 1.0 thereafter;


•	Have an interest coverage ratio of greater than 2.00 to 1.0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our consolidated EBITDA to our trailing twelve month consolidated cash interest expense). Our interest coverage requirement increases over time to 2.25 to 1.0 on March 31, 2018 and remains level thereafter; and


•	Have a fixed charge ratio of greater than 1.0 to 1.0 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our consolidated EBITDA minus capital expenditures to our trailing twelve month consolidated interest paid, taxes paid and other specified payments). Our fixed charge requirement remains level throughout the term of the credit agreement.

At September 30, 2017, we were in compliance with the applicable financial and restrictive covenants under the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2013 Senior Notes and the 2016 Senior Notes. Additionally, management anticipates that in the normal course of operations, we will be in compliance with the financial and restrictive covenants during the remainder of 2018. During the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we made voluntary principal payments against outstanding indebtedness of $175.5 million and $60.0 million, respectively, under the 2012 Term Loan. During the first half of 2018, we made voluntary principal payments of $105.0 million under the 2012 Term Loan. Under the Term Loan Amendment No. 4, we are required to make quarterly payments each equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of $1,427.0 million. Since we have made optional payments that exceeded a significant portion of our required quarterly payments, we will not be required to make another payment on the 2012 Term Loan until the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or financing activities with special-purpose entities.

- 35-

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the costs of raw materials, packaging materials, purchased product and overhead may adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, a high rate of inflation in the future could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Volatility in crude oil prices may have an adverse impact on transportation costs, as well as certain petroleum based raw materials and packaging material. Although we make efforts to minimize the impact of inflationary factors, including raising prices to our customers, a high rate of pricing volatility associated with crude oil supplies or other raw materials used in our products may have an adverse effect on our operating results.

- 36-

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. A summary of our critical accounting policies is presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended September 30, 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recently issued and recently adopted accounting pronouncements is included in the notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates because our 2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver are variable rate debt. Interest rate changes generally do not significantly affect the market value of the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver but do affect the amount of our interest payments and, therefore, our future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. At September 30, 2017, we had variable rate debt of approximately $1,367.0 million.

Holding other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a 1.0% increase in interest rates on our variable rate debt would have an adverse impact on pre-tax earnings and cash flows for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 of approximately $3.5 million and $7.2 million, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, approximately 10.7% and 10.2%, respectively, of our revenues were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, approximately 13.6% and 12.5%, respectively, of our revenues were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. As such, we are exposed to transactions that are sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates, including insignificant foreign currency forward exchange agreements. These transactions are primarily with respect to the Canadian and Australian Dollar.

We performed a sensitivity analysis with respect to exchange rates for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017. Holding all other variables constant, and assuming a hypothetical 10.0% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates, this analysis resulted in a less than 5.0% impact on pre-tax income of approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2017.


ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a–15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2017. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2017, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have excluded Fleet from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017, because (i) Fleet was acquired by us in the fourth quarter of 2017 and (ii) Fleet is a wholly-owned subsidiary whose total assets represent approximately 3.6% of the related condensed consolidated financial statement assets as of September 30, 2017 and whose total revenue represent approximately 20.2% and 20.8%, respectively, of the related condensed consolidated financial statement revenue for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017. We are currently in the process of evaluating and integrating Fleet's historical internal control over financial reporting structure with ours. Other than the changes noted above, there have been no changes during the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.	OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2017, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results of operations. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our quarterly operating results and revenues may fluctuate as a result of any of these or other factors. Accordingly, results for any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other quarter or for any year, and revenues for any particular future period may decrease. In the future, operating results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. In that event, the market price of our outstanding securities could be adversely impacted.
