Clorox Reports Q3 Fiscal Year 2026 Results, Updates Outlook

OAKLAND, Calif., April 30, 2026 — The Clorox Company (NYSE: CLX) today reported results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, which ended March 31, 2026.

Third-Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Summary

Following is a summary of key results for the third quarter. All comparisons are with the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 unless otherwise stated.

•Net sales of $1.67 billion were flat versus the year-ago quarter. Organic sales1 decreased 1%.

•Gross margin decreased 140 basis points to 43.2% from 44.6% in the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by higher manufacturing and logistics costs and unfavorable mix, partially offset by cost savings.

•Diluted net earnings per share (diluted EPS) increased 3% to $1.54 from $1.50 in the year-ago quarter. This includes lapping cyberattack insurance recoveries in the prior period, lower costs related to the company's investment in its digital capabilities and productivity enhancements in the current period, partially offset by costs associated with the acquisition of GOJO Industries (GOJO).

•Adjusted EPS1 increased 13% to $1.64 from $1.45 in the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by cost savings, lower advertising investments and lower selling and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher manufacturing and logistics costs and unfavorable mix.

•Year-to-date net cash provided by operations was $282 million compared to $687 million in the year-ago period, representing a 59% decrease, primarily due to the Glad joint venture agreement termination payment.

“Our third-quarter results were mixed, with continued momentum in some parts of our portfolio and slower-than-anticipated market share recovery in others,” said Chair and CEO Linda Rendle. “Looking ahead, we recognize there is more work to do in what continues to be a challenging consumer and cost environment. We're focused on improving execution to accelerate market share progress in challenging areas while continuing to invest behind areas of strength. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead as we expand our innovation pipeline and integrate Purell into our portfolio, reinforcing our confidence in our ability to deliver more consistent, profitable growth over time.”

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Financial Information" at the end of this press release for more details.

1Organic sales growth / (decrease) and adjusted EPS are non-GAAP measures. See Non-GAAP Financial Information at the end of this press release for reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Strategic and Operational Highlights

The following are recent strategic and operational highlights:

•Completed its acquisition of GOJO Industries on April 1, expanding the company’s product portfolio to include the Purell® brand and GOJO's health and hygiene solutions.

•Continued to invest in value superiority through innovation across its portfolio, including Hidden Valley Ranch with Avocado Oil, YumYum Ranch and Parmesan Ranch Seasoning, Kingsford Craftsmoke Pellets, the expansion of Burt’s Bees Lip Treats platform and a new skincare line, enhanced packaging and formulation options for Fresh Step, as well as expanded scent offerings across Clorox, Glad, and Pine-Sol. Clorox PURE continued to gain traction following its launch with velocities exceeding expectations.

•Clorox and Burt’s Bees were recognized among the Most Trusted Brands of 2026 by USA TODAY, while Burt's Bees, Glad and Hidden Valley Ranch innovations were named the Best New Products in 2026 by Newsweek. The company was recognized among Barron's Most Sustainable Companies in the U.S. for the fourth consecutive year and named among America’s Most Iconic Companies by Time Magazine.

Key Segment Results

The following is a summary of key third-quarter results by reportable segment. All comparisons are with the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 unless otherwise stated.

Health and Wellness (Cleaning; Professional Products)

•Net sales were essentially flat, driven by 1 point of higher volume, net of incremental shipments ahead of consumption in the prior quarter, partially offset by unfavorable price mix.

•Segment adjusted EBIT2 decreased 7%, primarily due to higher manufacturing and logistics costs, partially offset by cost savings.

Household (Bags and Wraps; Cat Litter; Grilling)

•Net sales increased 3%, driven by 3 points of higher volume, primarily due to shipment ahead of consumption in Cat Litter and Grilling.

•Segment adjusted EBIT increased 21%, primarily due to cost savings.

Lifestyle (Food; Water Filtration; Natural Personal Care)

•Net sales decreased 9%, driven by 6 points of lower volume primarily due to lower consumption and retail inventory adjustments.

•Segment adjusted EBIT was essentially flat, as the impact of lower net sales was offset by lower advertising investments and lower selling and administrative expenses.

International (Sales Outside the U.S.)

•Net sales increased 8%, primarily driven by favorable foreign exchange rates and higher volume. Organic sales grew 2%.

•Segment adjusted EBIT increased 16%, primarily due to higher net sales and cost savings, partially offset by higher manufacturing and logistics costs.

2 Adjusted EBIT is a non-GAAP measure. See Non-GAAP Financial Information at the end of this press release for reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook

The company is updating its full-year outlook for net sales, gross margin and adjusted EPS for the latest performance and trajectory as well as the impact from the company’s acquisition of GOJO Industries, which closed on April 1, 2026.

The following are three key drivers of the company’s fiscal year 2026 outlook; one is transitory and the others are inorganic:

•The most significant driver of the company’s fiscal year 2026 outlook is a transitory one. The company shipped about two weeks of inventory ahead of consumption at the end of the fourth-quarter of fiscal year 2025 as retailers built inventory in advance of its ERP transition. The company expected retailers to draw down on these inventories in the first quarter of this fiscal year, resulting in year-over-year shipments decline. From a year-over-year sales growth perspective, the reduction in sales from this inventory draw down translates to about 7.5 points of decline in fiscal year 2026 as compared to the higher base in fiscal year 2025. Inventory draw down is expected to reduce fiscal year 2026 earnings per share by about 90 cents. In comparison to the higher base in fiscal year 2025, this results in a year-over-year reduction of about 30% to fiscal year 2026 diluted earnings per share and about 23% to fiscal year 2026 adjusted earnings per share.

•The GOJO acquisition is expected to have 3 points of positive impact to net sales and 2 to 4 cents dilution to adjusted earnings per share, which reflects one quarter of profit contribution as well as the interest expense associated with the transaction. As previously mentioned, GOJO is EBITDA margin neutral to Clorox. However, it has a different gross margin and operating expense profile compared to Clorox’ existing business. These differences have been captured in the latest outlook.

•The company expects less than 1 point of negative impact on net sales from the divestiture of VMS business, offset by less than 1 point of positive impact from favorable foreign exchange.

The company is updating the following elements of its fiscal year 2026 outlook:

•The company now expects net sales to be down about 6%, including slightly less than 3 points of positive impact from the acquisition of GOJO. It also expects less than 1 point of negative impact from the divestiture of its VMS business, offset by less than 1 point of positive impact from favorable foreign exchange. This compares to its prior sales decline expectation at the low end of 6% to 10% range. Organic sales are now expected to decrease about 9%, versus its prior expectation at the low end of 5% to 9% decline.  Organic sales growth expectation continues to include a negative impact of about 7.5 points related to the reversal of the impact from incremental shipments associated with the ERP transition in the prior year.

•Gross margin is now expected to be down 250 to 300 basis points. This compares to the company's prior expectation at the low end of 50 to 100 basis points decline range. Impact from the GOJO acquisition is expected to be about 60 basis points of headwinds, of which about 50 basis points is transaction-related costs mainly associated with inventory step up. The reversal of the impact from incremental shipments associated with ERP transition in the prior fiscal year is expected to result in about 100 basis points of headwinds. Gross margin expectation also includes headwinds associated with higher energy costs from the Middle East conflict.

•Selling and administrative expenses are still expected to be about 16% of net sales. It continues to include about 90 basis points of impact from the company's strategic investments in digital capabilities and productivity enhancements.

•Advertising and sales promotion spending is still expected to be 11% of net sales.

•The company's effective tax rate is still expected to be about 24%.

•Fiscal year diluted EPS is now expected to be between $4.78  and $4.98, a year-over-year decrease of 24% to 27%. This outlook range now includes about 30 cents of impact from transaction-related costs associated with the GOJO acquisition and about 37 cents of long-term strategic investments in digital

Page 3 of 13

capabilities and productivity enhancements. This compares to its prior expectation at the low end of $5.60 and $5.95 range. This diluted EPS range continues to include the negative impact of about 90 cents related to the reversal of the impact from incremental shipments associated with the ERP transition in the prior fiscal year.

•Adjusted EPS is now expected to be between $5.45 and $5.65, or a decrease between 27% and 29%, respectively. This includes about 2 to 4 cents of dilution from GOJO acquisition, which reflects sales and earnings contribution for one quarter, as well as the higher interest expense associated with the debt financing for the deal. This compares to its prior expectation at the low end of $5.95 and $6.30 range. This outlook also continues to include the negative impact of about 90 cents related to the reversal of the impact from incremental shipments associated with the ERP transition in the prior fiscal year.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

•This press release contains non-GAAP financial information related to organic sales growth / (decrease), adjusted EPS and segment adjusted EBIT for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, as well as organic sales growth/(decrease) and adjusted EPS outlook for fiscal year 2026. The reasons management believes these measures are useful to investors are described below. Certain non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in determining incentive compensation.

•Clorox defines organic sales growth / (decrease) as GAAP net sales growth / (decrease) excluding the effect of foreign exchange rate changes and any acquisitions or divestitures.

•Management believes that the presentation of organic sales growth / (decrease) is useful to investors because it excludes sales from any acquisitions and divestitures, which results in a comparison of sales only from the businesses that the company was operating and expects to continue to operate throughout the relevant periods, and the company's estimate of the impact of foreign exchange rate changes, which are difficult to predict and out of the control of the company and management. However, organic sales

Page 7 of 13

growth / (decrease) may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation or differences in which items are incorporated into these adjustments.

•Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share that excludes or has otherwise been adjusted for significant items that are nonrecurring or unusual. The income tax effect on non-GAAP items is calculated based upon the tax laws and statutory income tax rates applicable in the tax jurisdiction(s) of the underlying non-GAAP adjustment.

•Adjusted EPS is supplemental information that management uses to help evaluate the company's historical and prospective financial performance on a consistent basis over time. Management believes that by adjusting for certain items affecting comparability of performance over time, such as the pension settlement charge, incremental costs and insurance recoveries related to the August 2023 cyberattack, asset impairments, charges related to the digital capabilities and productivity enhancements investment, transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, significant losses related to divestitures and other nonrecurring or unusual items, investors and management are able to gain additional insight into the company's underlying operating performance on a consistent basis over time. However, adjusted EPS may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation or differences in which items are incorporated into these adjustments.

•Adjusted EBIT represents earnings (losses) before income taxes excluding interest income, interest expense and other significant items that are nonrecurring or unusual (such as the pension settlement charge, incremental costs, net of insurance recoveries, related to the August 2023 cyberattack, asset impairments, charges related to the digital capabilities and productivity enhancements investment, transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, significant losses related to divestitures and other nonrecurring or unusual items impacting comparability during the period). The company uses this measure to assess the operating results and performance of its segments, perform analytical comparisons, identify strategies to improve performance, and allocate resources to each segment. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted EBIT excluding these items is useful to investors to assess operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of the items that management believes do not directly reflect the performance of each segment's underlying operations. However, adjusted EBIT may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation or differences in which items are incorporated into these adjustments.

•The reconciliation tables below refer to the equivalent GAAP measures adjusted as applicable for the following items:

Acquisition and Integration Costs

On April 1, 2026, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of GOJO Industries. As a result of this transaction, various acquisition and integration-related costs were and will be incurred related to the acquisition and efforts to integrate the recently acquired business to the Company’s systems and processes. These costs include direct acquisition transaction costs and legal-entity, operational, manufacturing, and information technology integration costs. In future periods, additional costs are expected to be incurred including further integration costs, employee-related expenses, and inventory step-up charges representing expense recognition of fair value adjustments in excess of the historical cost basis of inventory obtained through the acquisition.

Due to the nature, scope and magnitude of these costs and recoveries, the company's management believes presenting these costs as an adjustment in the non-GAAP results provides additional information to investors about trends in the company's operations and is useful for period over period comparisons. It also allows investors to view underlying operating results in the same manner as they are viewed by company management.

Digital Capabilities and Productivity Enhancements Investment

Page 8 of 13

As announced in August 2021, the company invested in transformative technologies and processes over a five-year period beginning in fiscal year 2022 and completed during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. The investment included replacement of the company's ERP system and transitioning to a cloud-based platform as well as the implementation of a suite of other digital technologies. The total incremental transformational investment was approximately $580 million. It is expected that these implementations will generate efficiencies and transform the company's operations in the areas of supply chain, digital commerce, innovation, brand building and more over the long term.

Of the total investment, approximately 75% represented incremental operating costs primarily recorded within selling and administrative expenses to be adjusted from reported EPS for purposes of disclosing adjusted EPS. About 70% of these operating costs were related to the implementation of the ERP, with the remaining costs primarily related to the implementation of complementary technologies.

Due to the nature, scope and magnitude of this investment, these costs were considered by management to represent incremental transformational costs above the historical normal level of spending for information technology to support operations. Since these strategic investments, including incremental operating costs, ceased at the end of the investment period, are not expected to recur in the foreseeable future and are not considered representative of the company's underlying operating performance, the company's management believes presenting these costs as an adjustment in the non-GAAP results provides additional information to investors about trends in the company's operations and is useful for period-over-period comparisons. It also allows investors to view underlying operating results in the same manner as they are viewed by company management.

(a)Comprised of third-party consulting fees incurred to assist in the project management and end-to-end systems integration of this transformative investment. The company relies on consultants for certain capabilities required for these programs that the company does not maintain internally. These costs support the implementation of these programs incremental to the company's normal IT costs and will not be incurred following implementation.

(b)Comprised of labor costs associated with internal IT project management teams that are utilized to oversee the new system implementations. Given the magnitude and transformative nature of the implementations planned, the necessary project management costs are incremental to the historical levels of spend and will no longer be incurred subsequent to implementation. As a result of this long-term strategic investment, the company considers these costs not reflective of the ongoing costs to operate its business.

(c)Comprised of various other expenses associated with the company’s new system implementations, including company personnel dedicated to the project that have been backfilled with either permanent or temporary resources in positions that are considered part of normal operating expenses.

(1)The divestiture impact is calculated as net sales from the Better Health Vitamins VMS business after the sale date in the nine month year-ago period.

(2)This represents the net impact on net sales growth / (decrease) from pricing actions, mix, trade promotion spending, mix from acquisitions and divestitures and other factors. In the nine months ended March 31, 2026, the impact from divestiture mix was 0% for Total Company.

(3)Organic sales growth / (decrease) is defined as net sales growth / (decrease) excluding the effect of any acquisitions and divestitures and foreign exchange rate changes. See below for reconciliation of organic sales growth / (decrease) to net sales growth / (decrease), the most directly comparable GAAP financial information.

Management believes that the presentation of organic sales growth / (decrease) is useful to investors because it excludes sales from any acquisitions and divestitures, which results in a comparison of sales only from the businesses that the company was operating throughout the relevant periods, and the impact of foreign exchange rate changes, which are out of the control of the company and management. However, organic sales growth / (decrease) may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded.

(4)Organic volume represents volume excluding the effect of any acquisitions and divestitures. In the nine months ended March 31, 2026, the volume impact of divestitures was (1)% for Total Company.

(5)Total Company includes Corporate and Other. Corporate and Other includes the results of the Better Health VMS business through the date of divestiture.

(1)In accordance with the SEC's Regulation G, this schedule provides the definition of certain non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation to the most closely related GAAP measure. Management uses free cash flow and free cash flow as a percentage of net sales to help assess the cash generation ability of the business and funds available for investing activities, such as acquisitions and divestitures, investing in the business to drive growth, and financing activities, including debt payments, dividend payments and stock repurchases. Free cash flow does not represent cash available only for discretionary expenditures since the Company has mandatory debt service requirements and other contractual and non-discretionary expenditures. In addition, free cash flow may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in connection with the company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP.

(2)During the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company completed the purchase of The Procter & Gamble Company’s (P&G) interest in the Company’s Glad® bags and wraps business. Management believes adjusting free cash flow to exclude this one‑time payment provides useful information for period‑over‑period comparability and enables investors to better evaluate the Company’s underlying operating performance, consistent with how management assesses operating results.
