FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS 2 This document contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of Federal securities laws. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors concerning the Company’s operations and
business environment. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those sugges ted by these forward-looking statements and that could adversely affect the Company’s future financial performance include the
following: the impact and uncertainty created by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including, but not limited to, its effects on our employees, facilities, customers, and suppliers, the availability and cost of raw materials, energy, and other
supplies, the availability and cost of labor, logistics, and transportation, governmental regulations and restrictions, and general economic conditions, including inflation; the uncertain impacts of the ongoing conflict between Russia and
Ukraine on our supply chain, input costs, including energy and transportation, and on general economic conditions; the pace and nature of new product introductions by the Company and the Company’s customers; the Company’s ability to anticipate
and respond to changing consumer preferences and changing technologies; the Company’s ability to successfully implement its growth strategies; the outcome of the Company’s various productivity-improvement and cost-reduction efforts, acquisition
and divestiture activities, and operational improvement plan; changes in costs of raw materials, including energy; industry, regulatory, legal, and economic factors related to the Company’s domestic and international business; the effects of
tariffs, trade barriers, and disputes; growth in markets for products in which the Company competes; industry and customer acceptance of price increases; actions by competitors; currency exchange rate fluctuations; and other factors included in
“Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as updated and supplemented by the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and in other documents that the
Company files with the SEC. The risks and uncertainties identified above are not the only risks the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that it currently believes to be immaterial also may
adversely affect the Company. Should any known or unknown risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, these developments could have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. This
presentation contains time-sensitive information that reflects management’s best analysis only as of the date of this presentation. Except to the extent required by applicable laws, the Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise
its forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied herein will not be realized.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES 2 Within this document, the Company reports certain non-GAAP financial
measures, including: (1) adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, and adjusted operating margin (which exclude divestiture & other related costs, the results of the divested product lines, and restructuring and other costs, which
include operational improvement plan costs and income), (2) adjusted results by segment (which exclude divestiture & other related costs, operational improvement plan costs and income, and the results of the divested operations), and (3)
percentage changes in revenue on an adjusted local currency basis (which eliminate the effects that result from translating its international operations into U.S. dollars and revenue of the divested product lines). The Company has included each
of these non-GAAP measures in order to provide additional information regarding the underlying operating results and comparable period-over- period performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP
and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation. Rather, they should be considered together with GAAP measures and the rest of the information included in
this presentation and the Company’s SEC filings. Management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis and to gain additional insight into underlying operating and
performance trends. The Company believes this information can be beneficial to investors for these same purposes. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial
Measures” at the end of this presentation for reconciliations and additional information.
