Masco Corporation

Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information

On February 18, 2020, Masco Corporation (“Masco”) completed the previously-announced sale (the “Transaction”) of Masco Cabinetry LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cabinetry”) to ACProducts, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ACPI”). The purchase price for the Transaction was $1 billion, consisting of $850 million in cash and preferred stock issued by ACProducts Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and holding company of ACPI, with a liquidation preference of $150 million. The Transaction closed in accordance with the terms of the securities purchase agreement entered into on November 14, 2019.

We determined that the sale of Cabinetry (the "Separation") represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results, as this business represented all of our cabinet businesses and all remaining businesses in our previously reported Cabinetry Products segment.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations has been prepared as though the Separation occurred on January 1, 2019. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet of Masco as of December 31, 2019 has been prepared as though the Separation occurred on December 31, 2019.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are for illustrative purposes only, and do not reflect Masco’s financial position or results of operations had the Separation occurred on the date indicated and are not necessarily indicative of Masco’s future financial position and future results of operations.  Beginning with Masco’s annual report for 2019, Cabinetry's historical financial results for periods prior to the Separation were reflected in Masco’s consolidated financial statements within discontinued operations.

The information in the Cabinetry Business’ Separation column of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations was derived from Masco’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, adjusted to include certain costs that are directly attributable to the Cabinetry business and are factually supportable, and to exclude corporate overhead costs that were previously allocated to the Cabinetry business. The information in the Cabinetry Business’ Separation column of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from Masco’s audited financial statements as of December 31, 2019, adjusted to include certain assets and liabilities that are directly attributable to the Cabinetry business and are factually supportable.

The Pro Forma Adjustments column in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects additional pro forma adjustments which are described in the accompanying notes.

These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the related notes to these financial statements and with Masco’s historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Masco’s previous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
