NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. Results of operations for interim periods may not be representative of results to be expected for the full year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Form 10-K”).
The Company incurred research and development expenses in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2022, the FASB issued new accounting guidance intended to add certain qualitative and quantitative disclosure requirements for a buyer in a supplier finance program. The amendments require a buyer that uses supplier finance programs to make annual disclosures about the program’s key terms, the balance sheet presentation of related amounts, the confirmed amount outstanding at the end of the period, and associated rollforward information. Only the amount outstanding at the end of the period must be disclosed in interim periods. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the requirement to disclose rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has adopted the standard which resulted in additional disclosures. Refer to Note 13.
There have been no other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the Company which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Basic EPS is calculated based on income available to holders of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding to the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a diluted basis:

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company updated its Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”) to provide employees with an award of stock options and initial grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and made an initial grant of performance share units ("PSUs") to members of the Company's Executive Leadership Team ("ELT"). In connection with this update, the awards, which were granted in the second quarter in previous years, were granted in the first quarter of 2023 and are expected to be granted in the first quarter in subsequent years. The stock option terms remain unchanged and are summarized in more detail in the Stock Based Compensation footnote within the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. The Company recognizes the grant-date fair value for each of these awards, less estimated forfeitures, as compensation expense ratably over the vesting period.

Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the price of the Company's Common Stock and commodity prices expose the Company to market risk. The Company manages these risks by the use of derivative instruments, such as cash flow and fair value hedges, diesel and commodity hedge contracts, equity derivatives and foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Refer to Note 3 in the Form 10-K for a discussion of each of the Company’s derivative instruments in effect as of December 31, 2022.
The notional amount of a derivative instrument is the nominal or face amount used to calculate payments made on that instrument. Notional amounts are presented in the following table:

Intangible amortization expense was $
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company determined that a review of our ability to recover the carrying values of the global FINISHING TOUCH FLAWLESS intangible assets was necessary based on the discontinuance of certain products at a major retailer.
14
The
FINISHING TOUCH FLAWLESS assets consist of the definite-lived trade name, customer relationships and technology assets recorded at acquisition. The Company evaluated our ability to recover the intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount to the future undiscounted cash flows and determined that the cash flows would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets. After determining the estimated fair value of the assets, which included a reduction in cash flows due to the loss of distribution mentioned above along with an expected continued decline in discretionary consumption and higher interest rates, a non-cash impairment charge of $

The Company’s indefinite lived intangible impairment review is completed in the fourth quarter of each year.
Fair value for indefinite-lived intangible assets was estimated based on a “relief from royalty” or “excess earnings” discounted cash flow method, which contains numerous variables that are subject to change as business conditions change, and therefore could impact fair values in the future. The key assumptions used in determining fair value are sales growth, profitability margins, tax rates, discount rates and royalty rates. The Company determined that the fair value of all indefinite lived intangible assets for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2022 exceeded their respective carrying values based upon the forecasted cash flows and profitability.
In recent years the Company’s global TROJAN® business, specifically the condom category, has not grown and competition has increased. In addition, profitability has been negatively impacted by inflation, resulting in higher input costs and discount rates. As a result, the TROJAN business has experienced declining sales and profits resulting in a reduction in expected future cash flows which have eroded a portion of the excess between the fair and carrying value of the trade name. This indefinite-lived intangible asset may be susceptible to impairment and a continued decline in fair value could trigger a future impairment charge of the TROJAN trade name. The carrying value of the TROJAN trade name is $
The Company’s global WATERPIK business has recently experienced a significant decline in customer demand for many of its products, primarily due to lower consumer spending for discretionary products from inflation and a growing number of water flosser consumers switching to more value-branded products. As a result, the WATERPIK business has experienced declining sales and profits resulting in a reduction in expected future cash flows which have eroded a substantial portion of the excess between the fair and carrying value of the trade name. This indefinite-lived intangible asset may be susceptible to impairment and a continued decline in fair value could trigger a future impairment charge of the WATERPIK trade name. The carrying value of the WATERPIK trade name is $
15
18% and 21%. These assumptions are based on current market conditions, recent trends and management’s expectation of the success of initiatives to lower costs (including tariffs) and to develop lower-cost water flosser alternatives as well as improvement in the supply chain. While management has implemented strategies to address the risk, significant changes in operating plans or adverse changes in the future could reduce the underlying cash flows used to estimate fair value. Due to the results of the Company's annual impairment test of the WATERPIK trade name, the Company monitors the performance of this business on at least a quarterly basis. Based on that review, the Company's expectations regarding the profitability of the global WATERPIK business has not substantially changed since the Company's last impairment test.

The result of the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test, performed in the beginning of the second quarter of 2023, determined that the estimated fair value substantially exceeded the carrying values of all reporting units. The determination of fair value contains numerous variables that are subject to change as business conditions change and therefore could impact fair value in the future.
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office space, railcars and equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All recorded leases are classified as operating leases and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases beginning in 2019, lease components (base rental costs) are accounted for separately from the nonlease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs). For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

In 2015, the Company initiated a Supply Chain Finance program (“SCF Program”). Under the SCF Program, qualifying suppliers may elect to sell their receivables from the Company for early payment. Participating suppliers negotiate their receivables sales arrangements directly with a third party. The Company is not party to those agreements and do not have an economic interest in the suppliers' decisions to sell their receivables and has not been required to pledge any assets as security nor to provide any guarantee to third-party finance providers or intermediaries. The SCF Program may allow suppliers to obtain more favorable terms than they could secure on their own. The terms of the Company's payment obligations are not impacted by a supplier’s participation in the SCF Program. The Company's payment terms with suppliers are consistent between suppliers that elect to participate in the SCF Program and those that do not participate. As a result, the program does not have an impact to the Company's average days outstanding.
As of September 30, 2023, the obligations outstanding related to the SCF program amount to $

Legal proceedings
e. In conjunction with the Company’s acquisition and divestiture activities, the Company entered into select guarantees and indemnifications of performance with respect to the fulfillment of the Company’s commitments under applicable purchase and sale agreements. The arrangements generally indemnify the buyer or seller for damages associated with breach of contract, inaccuracies in representations and warranties surviving the closing date and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments retained under the applicable contract. Representations and warranties that survive the closing date generally survive for periods up to five years or the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Potential losses under the indemnifications are generally limited to a portion of the original transaction price, or to other lesser specific dollar amounts for select provisions. With respect to sale transactions, the Company also routinely enters into non-competition agreements for varying periods of time. Guarantees and indemnifications with respect to acquisition and divestiture activities, if triggered, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
f. In addition to the matters described above, from time to time in the ordinary course of its business the Company is the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal, regulatory or governmental actions or other proceedings, including, without limitation, those relating to, intellectual property, commercial transactions, product liability, purported consumer class actions, employment matters, antitrust, environmental, health, safety and other compliance related matters. Such proceedings are generally subject to considerable uncertainty and their outcomes, and any related damages, may not be reasonably predictable or estimable. Any such proceedings could result in a material adverse outcome negatively impacting the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

CHURCH & DWIGHT CO., INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Recent Developments
We continue to monitor the impact of both inflation and recessionary indicators including the effect of corresponding government actions, such as raising interest rates to counteract inflation, that may negatively impact consumer spending, especially for our discretionary brands, and how these factors will potentially influence future cash flows for the short and long term.
Inflation and recessionary concerns are continuing to drive a decline in consumer spending for our most discretionary brands, Waterpik and Flawless, as consumers reduce spending in these categories and shift to lower cost alternatives. Most notably, a growing number of water flosser consumers have switched to more value-branded products. To address these demand shifts, we are taking steps to better manage production schedules and inventory levels for those products along with increasing promotional activities and marketing spend, as well as continuing efforts to develop lower cost water flosser alternatives.
In our vitamin business, we have experienced residual impacts from previous vitamin-specific supply chain challenges that, in some cases, have resulted in reduced shelf space at certain retailers.
In addition, our Specialty Products business has been negatively impacted by the entrance of new foreign competition in the United States dairy market. We expect that low-priced imports will continue to enter the market.
Looking forward, the impact that these challenges will continue to have on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including inflationary impacts, rising interest rates, recessionary concerns, retail customers' acceptance of all or a portion of any price increases, the spread and severity of new COVID-19 variants, and the long-term impact of vaccines. Additionally, we may be impacted by our ability to recruit and retain a workforce and engage third-parties to manufacture and distribute our products, as well as any future government actions affecting employers and employees, consumers and the economy in general. While we expect that many of these effects will be transitory and that our value-focused portfolio positions us well in inflationary and slowing economic environments, it is impossible to predict their impact.
For additional discussion of how we are addressing decreased consumer demand for discretionary brands, as well as lower growth and increased competition in the vitamin category, please refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Gross Profit / Gross Margin
Our gross profit was $646.3 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a $96.6 increase as compared to the same period in 2022. Gross margin increased 270 basis points (“bps”) in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to the positive impact of productivity programs of 160 bps, favorable price/volume/mix of 140 bps, benefits from the Hero Acquisition of 120 bps, and lower transportation costs of 110 bps, partially offset by higher manufacturing costs including labor and commodities of 260 bps. Gross profit was $1,907.2 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a $259.7 increase compared to the same period in 2022. Gross margin increased 210 bps in the first nine months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, due to favorable price/volume/mix of 190 bps, the impact of productivity programs of 160 bps, benefits from the Hero Acquisition of 120 bps, lower transportation costs of 100 bps, and favorable foreign exchange rates of 10 bps, partially offset by higher manufacturing costs including labor and higher commodities of 370 bps.
Operating Expenses
Marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $167.8, an increase of $27.1 or 19.3% as compared to the same period in 2022. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2023 increased by 80 bps to 11.5% as compared to 10.7% in the same period in 2022 due to 180 bps on higher expense from increased marketing spend as fill rates improved, offset by 100 bps of leverage on higher net sales. Marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $422.3, an increase of $76.8 or 22.2% as compared to the same period in 2022. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first nine months of 2023 increased by 90 bps to 9.7% as compared to 8.8% in the same period in 2022 due to 170 bps on higher expense from increased marketing spend as fill rates improved, offset by 80 bps of leverage on higher net sales.

SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 360 bps to 15.3% in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 11.7% in the same period in 2022. The increase is due to 460 bps on higher expenses, primarily from the Hero Acquisition (including $7.3 of expense related to restricted stock issued for the acquisition) and higher incentive compensation costs which reflects improved business performance, offset by 100 bps of leverage associated with higher sales. SG&A expenses for the first nine months of 2023 were $643.6, an increase of $137.8 or 27.2% as compared to the same period in 2022.

Other income (expense), net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.1 and $6.1 to $3.7 and $6.7, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to higher investment income .
Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.5 and $24.3 to $27.2 and $83.9, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to higher average interest rates on outstanding debt .
25
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 24.1%, compared to 20.2% in the same period in 2022. The increase in the rate is mainly due to a discrete benefit related to a state tax rate reduction in the period ending September 30, 2022.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 22.1%, compared to 22.6% in the same period in 2022. The decrease in the rate relates to the benefit from higher stock option exercises in the current quarter partially offset by a one-time state tax rate reduction in the period ending September 30, 2022.

We have the ability to increase our borrowing up to an additional $750.0, subject to lender commitments and certain conditions as described in the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for general corporate purposes and are used to support our $1,500.0 commercial paper program.
As of September 30, 2023, we had $573.3 in cash and cash equivalents, and approximately $1,495.0 available through the Revolving Credit Facility and our commercial paper program. To preserve our liquidity, we invest cash primarily in government money market funds, prime money market funds, short-term commercial paper and short-term bank deposits.
In the first quarter of 2023, we repaid $200.0 of our $400.0 Term Loan due December 22, 2024 with cash on hand and commercial paper borrowings.
The current economic environment presents risks that could have adverse consequences for our liquidity. See “Unfavorable economic conditions could adversely affect demand for our products” under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Form 10-K. We continue to manage all aspects of our business including, but not limited to, monitoring the financial health of our customers, suppliers and other third-party relationships, implementing gross margin enhancement strategies and developing new opportunities for growth. We do not anticipate that current economic conditions will adversely affect our ability to comply with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement because we currently are, and anticipate that we will continue to be, in compliance with the requirements under the Credit Agreement.
On October 28, 2021, the Board authorized a share repurchase program, under which we had initial availability to repurchase up to $1,000.0 in shares of Common Stock (the “2021 Share Repurchase Program”). The 2021 Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration and replaced the 2017 Share Repurchase Program. The 2021 Share Repurchase Program did not modify our evergreen share repurchase program, authorized by the Board on January 29, 2014, under which we may repurchase, from time to time, Common Stock to reduce or eliminate dilution associated with issuances of Common Stock under its incentive plans. There have been no stock repurchases in 2023.
As of September 30, 2023, there remains $729.7 of share repurchase availability under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program.
On February 1, 2023, the Board declared a 4% increase in the regular quarterly dividend from $0.2625 to $0.2725 per share, equivalent to an annual dividend of $1.09 per share. The increase raises the annual dividend payout from $255.0 to approximately $265.0.
We anticipate that our cash from operations, together with our current borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to fund our share repurchase programs, pay debt and interest as it comes due, fund dividends, and meet our capital expenditure program costs. Capital expenditures in 2023 are expected to be approximately $230.0 primarily for manufacturing capacity investments in laundry, litter and vitamins to support expected future sales growth. Cash, together with our current borrowing capacity, may be used for acquisitions that would complement our existing product lines or geographic markets.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities – Our primary source of liquidity is the cash flow provided by operating activities, which is dependent on net income and changes in working capital. Our net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $261.0 to $795.1 as compared to $534.1 in the same period in 2022 due to an improvement in working capital and an increase in cash earnings (net income adjusted for non-cash items) including the impact of recent acquisitions. The improvement in working capital is primarily related to lower investment in inventory for our discretionary brands and higher incentive compensation accruals. We measure working capital effectiveness based on our cash conversion cycle. The following table presents our cash conversion cycle information for the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

Our cash conversion cycle (defined as the sum of DSO and DIO less DPO) which is calculated using a two-period average method, decreased 1 day from the prior year primarily due to lower investments in inventory for our discretionary brands. We continue to focus on reducing our working capital requirements.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of 2023 was $128.4, primarily reflecting $121.5 property, plant and equipment additions. Net cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of 2022 was $100.7, primarily reflecting $98.1 for property, plant and equipment additions.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 2023 was $363.0, reflecting $199.9 of cash dividend payments and $270.6 of net debt repayments, partially offset by $107.6 of proceeds from stock option exercises. Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 2022 was $226.0, reflecting $191.2 of cash dividend payments, $49.7 of net debt repayments, and $7.5 of deferred financing costs, partially offset by $22.4 of proceeds from stock option exercises.
