NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

A. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position at September 30, 2023, our results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States of America.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024 and will be adopted at that time. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. ASU 2023-02 is effective for annual periods on either a modified retrospective or retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2024, and do not anticipate that the adoption of this new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

B. ACQUISITIONS

In the third quarter of 2023, we acquired all of the share capital of Sauna360 Group Oy (“Sauna360”) for approximately €124 million ($136 million), net of cash acquired. Sauna360 has a portfolio of products that includes traditional, infrared, and wood-burning saunas as well as steam showers. The business is included within the Plumbing Products segment. In connection with this acquisition, we recognized $22 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets, which is related to trademarks, and $45 million of definite-lived intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average amortization period of 16 years. We also recognized $60 million of goodwill, which is not tax deductible, and is related primarily to the expected synergies from combining the operations into our business. The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is based on analysis of information as of the acquisition date that was available through September 30, 2023, and will be updated through the measurement period, if necessary.

F. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Concluded)

The carrying value of our other indefinite-lived intangible assets were $123 million and $102 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and principally included registered trademarks. The carrying value of our definite-lived intangible assets was $272 million (net of accumulated amortization of $110 million) at September 30, 2023 and $248 million (net of accumulated amortization of $94 million) at December 31, 2022, and principally included customer relationships. The increase in our indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets is primarily a result of our acquisition of Sauna360.

G. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.

All outstanding payments owed under the program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $60 million and $50 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $21 million and $29 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

H. DEBT

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders.

The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility available to us and one of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, European euros, British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars and certain other currencies for revolving credit loans, swingline loans and letters of credit. Borrowings under the revolving credit loans denominated in any agreed upon currency other than U.S. dollars are limited to the equivalent of $500 million. We can also borrow swingline loans up to $125 million and obtain letters of credit of up to $25 million. Outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement reduce our borrowing capacity and we had no outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement at September 30, 2023.

The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0.

In order for us to borrow under the 2022 Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in our covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants described above, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, and requirements relating to legal compliance, maintenance of our properties and insurance) and our representations and warranties in the 2022 Credit Agreement must be true in all material respects on the date of borrowing (i.e., principally no material adverse change or litigation likely to result in a material adverse change, since December 31, 2021, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance, and no material tax deficiency). We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at September 30, 2023.

MASCO CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

H. DEBT (Concluded)

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.

On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contain no financial covenants and €60 million ($63 million) remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.807% at September 30, 2023.

Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of our short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues, which are Level 1 inputs. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at September 30, 2023 was approximately $2.5 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.0 billion. The aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt at December 31, 2022 was approximately $2.7 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.2 billion.

Our effective tax rate was 25 percent and 24 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and was 25 percent for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was favorably impacted by $14 million and $10 million of income tax benefits, respectively. For both periods, the income tax benefits primarily resulted from a reduction in the liability for uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of statutes of limitation and stock-based compensation.

M. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation. We are involved in claims and litigation, including class actions, mass torts and regulatory proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. The types of matters may include, among others: advertising, competition, contract, data privacy, employment, environmental, insurance coverage, intellectual property, personal injury, product compliance, product liability, securities and warranty. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters. We are also subject to product safety regulations, product recalls and direct claims for product liabilities. We believe the likelihood that the outcome of these claims, litigation and product safety matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could, in the future, incur judgments or penalties, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

Warranty. Changes in our warranty liability were as follows, in millions:

N. INSURANCE SETTLEMENT

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we received an insurance settlement payment in our Decorative Architectural Products segment related to lost sales resulting from a weather event that occurred in Texas in 2021 which impacted the operations of a resin supplier and interrupted our ability to manufacture certain paints and other coating products. The insurance settlement payment increased gross profit and operating profit by $40 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.


MASCO CORPORATION
Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Due to changing market conditions, we are experiencing, and may continue to experience, lower market demand for our products. We have been experiencing, and may continue to experience, elevated commodity and other input costs, as well as employee-related cost inflation. While still elevated, we have recently seen some reduction of certain costs, and we aim to offset the potential unfavorable impact of our costs and lower demand for our products with productivity improvement, pricing, and other initiatives.

We continue to execute our strategies of leveraging our strong brand portfolio, industry-leading positions and the Masco Operating System, our methodology to drive growth and productivity, to create long-term shareholder value. We remain confident in the fundamentals of our business and long-term strategy. We believe that our strong financial position and cash flow generation, together with our investments in our industry-leading branded building products, our continued focus on innovation and disciplined capital allocation, will allow us to drive long-term growth and create value for our shareholders.

THIRD QUARTER 2023 AND THE FIRST NINE MONTHS 2023 VERSUS

THIRD QUARTER 2022 AND THE FIRST NINE MONTHS 2022

Consolidated Results of Operations

We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). However, we believe that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results under GAAP.

The following discussion of consolidated results of operations refers to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Capital Structure

We had cash and cash investments of approximately $560 million and $452 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our cash and cash investments consist of overnight interest bearing money market demand accounts, time deposit accounts, and money market mutual funds containing government securities and treasury obligations. While we attempt to diversify these investments in a prudent manner to minimize risk, it is possible that future changes in the financial markets could affect the security or availability of these investments. Of the cash and cash investments we held at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $274 million and $321 million, respectively, was held in our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed for our operations in the U.S., their repatriation into the U.S. would not result in significant additional U.S. income tax or foreign withholding tax, as we have recorded such taxes on substantially all undistributed foreign earnings, except for those that are legally restricted.

Our current ratio was 1.8 to 1 and 1.6 to 1 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The increase in our current ratio is primarily due to the repayment of the 364-day term loan during 2023.

We believe that our present cash balance and cash flows from operations, and borrowing availability under our revolving credit agreement, are sufficient to fund our near-term working capital and other investment needs. We believe that our longer-term working capital and other general corporate requirements will be satisfied through cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, from bank borrowings and future financial market activities. However, due to the changing market conditions and its impact on our customers and suppliers, we are unable to fully estimate the extent of the impact that the changing market conditions may have on our future financial condition.

Credit Agreement

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027.

Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders. See Note H to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

364-day Term Loan

Other Liquidity and Capital Resource Activities

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our cash flow and related liquidity, we work with suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, including extending payment terms. We also facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $60 million and $50 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $21 million and $29 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. A downgrade in our credit rating or changes in the financial markets could limit the financial institutions’ willingness to commit funds to, and participate in, the program. We do not believe such risk would have a material impact on our working capital or cash flows, as substantially all of our payments are made outside of the program.

Acquisitions

In the third quarter of 2023, we acquired all of the share capital of Sauna360 for approximately €124 million ($136 million), net of cash acquired. Sauna360 has a portfolio of products that includes traditional, infrared, and wood-burning saunas as well as steam showers.

Share Repurchases

Effective October 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, for retirement, of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock in open-market transactions or otherwise, replacing the previous Board of Directors authorization established in 2021. We repurchased and retired approximately 2.4 million shares of our common stock in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 for approximately $126 million. This included 0.2 million shares to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. At September 30, 2023, we had approximately $1.9 billion remaining under the 2022 authorization. Consistent with our past practice and as part of our long-term capital allocation strategy, we anticipate using approximately $350 million of cash for share repurchases (including shares which will be purchased to offset any dilution from restricted stock units granted as part of our compensation program) in 2023.

Cash Flows

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by operations was $928 million, primarily driven by operating profit.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used for financing activities was $498 million, primarily due to $200 million for the repayment of the 364-day term loan, $193 million for the payment of cash dividends, $126 million for the repurchase and retirement of our common stock (including 0.2 million shares repurchased to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in 2023), and $49 million for dividends paid to noncontrolling interest. These uses of cash were partially offset by $66 million of net proceeds from short-term debt borrowings.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used for investing activities was $321 million, primarily driven by $181 million of capital expenditures and $136 million for the acquisition of Sauna360.
