1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SB Holdings” or the “Company”), is a global branded consumer products company and was created in connection with the combination of Spectrum Brands, Inc. (“Spectrum Brands”), a global branded consumer products company, and Russell Hobbs, Inc. (“Russell Hobbs”), a small appliance brand company, to form a new combined company (the “Merger”). The Merger was consummated on June 16, 2010. As a result of the Merger, both Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs are wholly-owned subsidiaries of SB Holdings and Russell Hobbs is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spectrum Brands. SB Holdings trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SPB.”

In connection with the Merger, Spectrum Brands refinanced its existing senior debt and a portion of Russell Hobbs’ existing senior debt through a combination of a new $750,000 United States (“U.S.”) Dollar Term Loan due June 16, 2016, new 9.5% Senior Secured Notes maturing June 15, 2018 and a new $300,000 ABL revolving facility due June 16, 2014. (See also Note 8, Debt, for a more complete discussion of the Company’s outstanding debt.)

On February 3, 2009, Spectrum Brands, at the time a Wisconsin corporation, and each of its wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On August 28, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), the Debtors emerged from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Debtors’ confirmed plan of reorganization, Spectrum Brands converted from a Wisconsin corporation to a Delaware corporation.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term “Company” is used to refer to both Spectrum Brands and its subsidiaries prior to the Merger and SB Holdings and its subsidiaries subsequent to the Merger. The term “Predecessor Company” refers only to the Company prior to the Effective Date and the term “Successor Company” refers to the Company subsequent to the Effective Date. The Company’s fiscal year ends September 30. References herein to Fiscal 2010 and Fiscal 2009 refer to the fiscal years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Prior to and including August 30, 2009, all operations of the business resulted from the operations of the Predecessor Company. In accordance with ASC Topic 852: “Reorganizations,” (“ASC 852”) the Company determined that all conditions required for the adoption of fresh-start reporting were met upon emergence from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on the Effective Date. However in light of the proximity of that date to the Company’s August accounting period close, which was August 30, 2009, the Company elected to adopt a convenience date of August 30, 2009, (the “Fresh-Start Adoption Date”) for recording fresh-start reporting. The Company analyzed the transactions that occurred during the two-day period from August 29, 2009, the day after the Effective Date, and August 30, 2009, the Fresh-Start Adoption Date, and concluded that such transactions represented less than one-percent of the total net sales during Fiscal 2009. As a result, the Company determined that August 30, 2009 would be an appropriate Fresh-Start Adoption Date to coincide with the Company’s normal financial period close for the month of August 2009. As a result, the fair value of the Predecessor Company’s assets and liabilities became the new basis for the Successor Company’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of the Fresh-Start Adoption Date, and all operations beginning August 31, 2009 are related to the Successor Company. Financial information of the Company’s financial statements prepared for the Predecessor Company will not be comparable to financial information for the Successor Company. The Company is a global branded consumer products company with positions in seven major product categories: consumer batteries; small appliances; pet supplies; electric shaving and grooming; electric personal care; portable lighting; and home and garden control.

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

The Company manages its business in four reportable segments: (i) Global Batteries & Personal Care, which consists of the Company’s worldwide battery, shaving and grooming, personal care and portable lighting business (“Global Batteries & Personal Care”); (ii) Global Pet Supplies, which consists of the Company’s worldwide pet supplies business (“Global Pet Supplies”); (iii) Home and Garden Business, which consists of the Company’s lawn and garden and insect control businesses (the “Home and Garden Business”); and (iv) Small Appliances, which resulted from the acquisition of Russell Hobbs and consists of small electrical appliances primarily in the kitchen and home product categories (“Small Appliances”).

The Company’s operations include the worldwide manufacturing and marketing of alkaline, zinc carbon and hearing aid batteries, as well as aquariums and aquatic health supplies and the designing and marketing of rechargeable batteries, battery-powered lighting products, electric shavers and accessories, grooming products and hair care appliances. The Company’s operations also include the manufacturing and marketing of specialty pet supplies. The Company also manufactures and markets herbicides, insecticides and repellents in North America. With the addition of Russell Hobbs the Company designs, markets and distributes a broad range of branded small appliances and personal care products. The Company’s operations utilize manufacturing and product development facilities located in the U.S., Europe, Asia and Latin America.

The Company sells its products in approximately 120 countries through a variety of trade channels, including retailers, wholesalers and distributors, hearing aid professionals, industrial distributors and original equipment manufacturers and enjoys name recognition in its markets under the Rayovac, VARTA and Remington brands, each of which has been in existence for more than 80 years, and under the Tetra, 8in1, Spectracide, Cutter, Black & Decker, George Foreman, Russell Hobbs, Farberware and various other brands.

2 VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11

On February 3, 2009, the Predecessor Company announced that it had reached agreements with certain noteholders, representing, in the aggregate, approximately 70% of the face value of the Company’s then outstanding senior subordinated notes, to pursue a refinancing that, if implemented as proposed, would significantly reduce the Predecessor Company’s outstanding debt. On the same day, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the Bankruptcy Court (the “Bankruptcy Filing”) and filed with the Bankruptcy Court a proposed plan of reorganization (the “Proposed Plan”) that detailed the Debtors’ proposed terms for the refinancing. The Chapter 11 cases were jointly administered by the Bankruptcy Court as Case No. 09-50455 (the “Bankruptcy Cases”).

The Bankruptcy Court entered a written order (the “Confirmation Order”) on July 15, 2009 confirming the Proposed Plan (as so confirmed, the “Plan”).

Also on the Effective Date, Successor Company issued a total of 2,970 shares of common stock to supplemental and sub-supplemental debtor-in-possession facility participants in respect of the equity fee earned under the Debtors’ debtor-in-possession credit facility.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of the Company, include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, and the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009 and the cash flows for the nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and any amendments thereto for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Significant Accounting Policies and Practices: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the condensed consolidated financial statements of SB Holdings and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

Discontinued Operations: On November 11, 2008, the Predecessor Company board of directors (the “Predecessor Board”) approved the shutdown of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business, which included the manufacturing and marketing of fertilizers, enriched soils, mulch and grass seed. The decision to shutdown the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business was made only after the Predecessor Company was unable to successfully sell this business, in whole or in part. The growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business qualified as a component of an entity, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, of the Home and Garden Business, as operations and cash flows of the growing products portion were clearly distinguished both operationally and for financial reporting purposes from the rest of the Home and Garden Business. The operations and cash flows of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business were eliminated from ongoing operations during the second quarter of Fiscal 2009. The Company did not have significant involvement in the operations of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business subsequent to the second quarter of Fiscal 2009.

The presentation herein of the results of continuing operations exclude the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business for all periods presented. The following amounts have been segregated from continuing operations and are reflected as discontinued operations for the three month period ended June 28, 2009 and the nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively:


	Predecessor Company			Successor Company			Predecessor Company
	Three Months Ended			Nine Months Ended
	2009			2010			2009
Net sales	$	—		$	—		$	31,306

Loss from discontinued operations before income taxes	$	(3,092	)	$	(2,512	)	$	(89,064	)
Provision for income tax (benefit) expense		(1,052	)		223			(5,084	)

Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax	$	(2,040	)	$	(2,735	)	$	(83,980	)

Assets Held for Sale: At July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Company had $12,238 and $11,870, respectively, included in Assets held for sale in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) consisting of certain assets primarily related to a former manufacturing facility in Ningbo, China.

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are recorded at cost or at fair value if acquired in a purchase business combination. Customer lists and proprietary technology intangibles are amortized, using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives of approximately 4 to 20 years. Excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired (goodwill) and trade name intangibles are not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, at the reporting unit level with such groupings being consistent with the Company’s reportable segments. If an impairment is indicated, a write-down to fair value (normally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows) is recorded. Trade name intangibles are tested for impairment at least annually by comparing the fair value with the carrying value. Any excess of carrying value over fair value is recognized as an impairment loss in income from operations. The Company’s annual impairment testing is completed at its August financial period end.

ASC Topic 350: “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other,” (“ASC 350”) requires that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment annually, or more often if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. Management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as unexpected adverse business conditions, economic factors, unanticipated technological change or competitive activities, loss of key personnel,

and acts by governments and courts may signal that an asset has become impaired. The fair values of the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were not tested for impairment during the three and nine month period ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively, as no event or circumstance arose which indicated that an impairment loss may have been incurred.

Shipping and Handling Costs: The Successor Company incurred shipping and handling costs of $40,204 and $111,615 for the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010. The Predecessor Company incurred shipping and handling costs of $35,975 and $112,314 for the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009. These costs are included in Selling expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited). Shipping and handling costs include costs incurred with third-party carriers to transport products to customers as well as salaries and overhead costs related to activities to prepare the Company’s products for shipment from its distribution facilities.

Concentrations of Credit Risk: Trade receivables subject the Company to credit risk. Trade accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and credit history, and generally does not require collateral. The Company monitors its customers’ credit and financial condition based on changing economic conditions and makes adjustments to credit policies as required. Provision for losses on uncollectible trade receivables are determined principally on the basis of past collection experience applied to ongoing evaluations of the Company’s receivables and evaluations of the risks of nonpayment for a given customer.

The Company has a broad range of customers including many large retail outlet chains, one of which accounts for a significant percentage of its sales volume. This customer represented approximately 24% and 22% of the Successor Company’s Net sales during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, respectively. This customer represented approximately 25% and 23% of the Predecessor Company’s Net sales during the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009, respectively. This customer also represented approximately 19% and 14% of the Successor Company’s Trade accounts receivable, net at July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively.

Approximately 37% and 43% of the Successor Company’s Net sales during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, respectively, and 37% and 42% of the Predecessor Company’s Net sales during the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009, respectively, occurred outside the United States. These sales and related receivables are subject to varying degrees of credit, currency, political and economic risk. The Company monitors these risks and makes appropriate provisions for collectibility based on an assessment of the risks present.

Stock-Based Compensation: In 1996, the Predecessor Board approved the Rayovac Corporation 1996 Stock Option Plan (“1996 Plan”). Under the 1996 Plan, stock options to acquire up to 2,318 shares of common stock, in the aggregate, could be granted to select employees and non-employee directors of the Predecessor Company under either or both a time-vesting or a performance-vesting formula at an exercise price equal to the market price of the common stock on the date of grant. The 1996 Plan expired on September 12, 2006.

In 1997, the Predecessor Board adopted the 1997 Rayovac Incentive Plan (“1997 Plan”). Under the 1997 Plan, the Predecessor Company could grant to employees and non-employee director’s stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, and other stock-based awards, as well as cash-based annual and long-term incentive awards. Accelerated vesting would have occurred in the event of a change in control, as defined in the 1997 Plan. Up to 5,000 shares of common stock could have been issued under the 1997 Plan. The 1997 Plan expired on August 31, 2007.

In 2004, the Predecessor Board adopted the 2004 Rayovac Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”). The 2004 Plan supplemented the 1997 Plan. Under the 2004 Plan, the Predecessor Company could grant to employees and non-employee directors stock options, SARs, restricted stock, and other stock-based awards, as well as cash-based annual and long-term incentive awards. Accelerated vesting would occur in the event of a change in control, as defined in the 2004 Plan. Up to 3,500 shares of common stock, net of forfeitures and cancellations, could have been issued under the 2004 Plan. The 2004 Plan would have expired on July 31, 2014.

Upon the Effective Date, however, by operation of the Plan all the existing common stock of the Predecessor Company was extinguished and deemed cancelled and, in connection with the cancellation of the Predecessor’s common stock, any and all equity awards granted under, and understandings with respect to participation in, the 2004 Plan in effect prior to the Effective Date became null and void as of the Effective Date.

In September 2009, the Successor Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) adopted the 2009 Spectrum Brands Inc. Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). In conjunction with the Merger the 2009 Plan was assumed by SB Holdings. Up to 3,333 shares of common stock, net of forfeitures and cancellations, may be issued under the 2009 Plan.

In conjunction with the Merger, the Company adopted the Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Award Plan (formerly known as the Russell Hobbs, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Award Plan, as amended on June 24, 2008) (the “RH Plan”). Up to 600 shares of common stock, net of forfeitures and cancellations, may be issued under the RH Plan.

The Company granted approximately 310 shares of restricted stock during the three month period ended July 4, 2010. Of these grants, approximately 271 restricted stock units were granted in conjunction with the consummation of the merger with Russell Hobbs and are time-based and vest over a one year period. The remaining 39 shares are restricted stock grants that are time-based and vest over a three year period. The Company also granted 629 shares of restricted stock grants during the three month period ended January 3, 2010. Of these grants, 18 shares are time-based and vest after a one year period and 611 shares are time-based and vest over a two year period. All vesting dates are subject to the recipient’s continued employment with the Company, except as otherwise permitted by the Board or in certain cases if the employee is terminated without cause. The total market value of the restricted shares on the date of grant was approximately $23,299.

The Predecessor Company granted approximately 229 shares of restricted stock during the three and nine month period ended June 28, 2009. All shares granted were purely performance based and would have vested only upon achievement of certain performance goals which consisted of reportable segment and consolidated company earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and cash flow components, each as defined by the Company for purposes of such awards. All vesting dates were subject to the recipient’s continued employment with the Company, except as otherwise permitted by the Predecessor Board. The total market value of the restricted shares on the date of grant was approximately $150. Upon the Effective Date, by operation of the Plan, the restricted stock granted by the Predecessor Company was extinguished and deemed cancelled.

In connection with the adoption of ASC Topic 718: “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” (“ASC 718”), the Company is required to recognize expense related to the fair value of its employee stock awards. Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock awards recognized by the Successor Company during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 was $5,881 or $3,822, net of taxes and $12,273, or $7,978, net of taxes, respectively. Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock awards recognized by the Predecessor Company during the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009 was $883 or $548, net of taxes and $2,047, or $1,269, net of taxes, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments: In accordance with ASC Topic 815: “Derivatives and Hedging,” (“ASC 815”) the Company has provided enhanced disclosures about (1) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (2) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under ASC 815; and (3) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company principally in the management of its interest rate, foreign currency and raw material price exposures. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. When hedge accounting is elected at inception, the Company formally designates the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure if such criteria are met, and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the forecasted cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. For derivatives that are not designated as cash flow hedges, or do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the change in the fair value is also immediately recognized in earnings.

The Successor Company’s fair value of outstanding derivative contracts recorded as assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) were as follows:

Cash Flow Hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative, representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in current earnings.

The following table summarizes the pretax impact of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the three month period ended July 4, 2010 (Successor Company):

Derivative Contracts

For derivative instruments that are used to economically hedge the fair value of the Company’s third party and intercompany foreign exchange payments and commodity purchases, the gain (loss) is recognized in earnings in the period of change associated with the derivative contract. During the three month period ended July 4, 2010 (Successor Company) and the three month period ended June 28, 2009 (Predecessor Company), the Company recognized the following respective gains (losses) on derivative contracts:

^(A)	Amount represents ineffective portion of certain future payments related to an interest rate contract that was de-designated as a cash flow hedge during the pendency of the Bankruptcy Cases.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to the default risk of the counterparties with which the Company transacts. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk on an individual basis by periodically assessing each such counterparty’s credit rating exposure. The maximum loss due to credit risk is not significant as the fair value of the gross asset derivatives, which are primarily concentrated with a domestic financial institution counterparty, are offset by gross liability derivative positions held by the Company that are subject to a master netting agreement. The Company considers these exposures when measuring its credit reserves on its derivatives. Additionally, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk.

The Company’s standard contracts do not contain credit risk related contingent features whereby the Company would be required to post additional cash collateral as a result of a credit event. However, as a result of the Company’s current credit profile, the Company is typically required to post collateral in the normal course of business to offset its liability positions. At July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Successor Company had posted cash collateral of $7,097 and $1,943, respectively, related to such liability positions. In addition, at July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Successor Company had posted standby letters of credit of $5,000 and $0, respectively, related to such liability positions. The cash collateral is included in Current Assets—Receivables—Other within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited).

Derivative Financial Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges with the changes in fair value recorded in AOCI and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The swaps settle periodically in arrears with the related amounts for the current settlement period payable to, or receivable from, the counter-parties included in accrued liabilities or receivables, respectively, and recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense from the underlying debt to which the swap is designated. At July 4, 2010, the Successor Company had a portfolio of U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate swaps outstanding

which effectively fixes the interest on floating rate debt, exclusive of lender spreads as follows: 2.25% for a notional principal amount of $300,000 through December 2011 and 2.29% for a notional principal amount of $300,000 through January 2012 (the “U.S. dollar swaps”). During both the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, in connection with the refinancing of its senior credit facilities, the Company terminated a portfolio of Euro-denominated interest rate swaps at a cash loss of $3,499 which was recognized as an adjustment to interest expense for ineffectiveness. The Successor Company had no interest rate swap financial instruments at September 30, 2009. The derivative net loss on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Successor Company at July 4, 2010 was $2,960, net of tax benefit of $1,814. At July 4, 2010, the portion of derivative net losses estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings by the Successor Company over the next 12 months is 1,369, net of tax.

In connection with the Company’s merger with Russell Hobbs and the refinancing of the Company’s existing senior credit facilities associated with the closing of the Merger, the Company assessed the prospective effectiveness of its interest rate cash flow hedges during the three month period ended July 4, 2010. As a result, during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded a loss of $2,346 from ineffectiveness as an adjustment to interest expense as the Company was unable to confirm that all forecasted interest rate swaps transactions were probable of occurring. Upon the refinancing of the existing senior credit facility associated with the closing of the Merger, the Company re-designated the U.S. dollar swaps as cash flow hedges of certain scheduled interest rate payments on the new $750,000 U.S. Dollar Term Loan expiring June 16, 2016. At, July 4, 2010, the Company believes that all forecasted interest rate swap transactions designated as cash flow hedges are probable of occurring.

The Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the risk from forecasted foreign denominated third party and intercompany sales or payments. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars, Brazilian Reals, Canadian Dollars or Japanese Yen. These foreign exchange contracts are cash flow hedges of fluctuating foreign exchange related to sales or product or raw material purchases. Until the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is recorded in AOCI and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. At the time the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is reclassified as an adjustment to Net sales or purchase price variance in Cost of goods sold.

At July 4, 2010 the Successor Company had a series of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding through September 2011 with a contract notional value of $104,650. At September 30, 2009 the Successor Company had a series of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding through September 2010 with a contract notional value of $92,963. The derivative net gain on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Successor Company at July 4, 2010 was $3,662, net of tax expense of $1,464. The derivative net loss on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Successor Company at September 30, 2009 was $378, net of tax benefit of $167. At July 4, 2010, the portion of derivative net gains estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings by the Successor Company over the next 12 months is $3,466, net of tax.

The Company is exposed to risk from fluctuating prices for raw materials, specifically zinc used in its manufacturing processes. The Company hedges a portion of the risk associated with these materials through the use of commodity swaps. The hedge contracts are designated as cash flow hedges with the fair value changes recorded in AOCI and as a hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The unrecognized changes in fair value of the hedge contracts are reclassified from AOCI into earnings when the hedged purchase of raw materials also affects earnings. The swaps effectively fix the floating price on a specified quantity of raw materials through a specified date. At July 4, 2010 the Successor Company had a series of such swap contracts outstanding through September 2012 for

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

16 tons with a contract notional value of $32,175. At September 30, 2009 the Successor Company had a series of such swap contracts outstanding through September 2011 for 8 tons with a contract notional value of $11,830. The derivative net loss on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Successor Company at July 4, 2010 was $1,814, net of tax benefit of $963. The derivative net gain on these contracts recorded in AOCI by the Successor Company at September 30, 2009 was $347, net of tax expense of $183. At July 4, 2010, the portion of derivative net losses estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings by the Successor Company over the next 12 months is $1,442, net of tax.

The Company was also exposed to fluctuating prices of raw materials, specifically urea and di-ammonium phosphates (“DAP”), used in its manufacturing processes in the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business. The Successor Company did not have any contracts outstanding and did not record any activity for these raw materials during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 as the Company completed the shutdown of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business during the second quarter of Fiscal 2009. See Note 3, Significant Accounting Policies—Discontinued Operations, for further information on the shutdown of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business.

Derivative Contracts

The Predecessor Company periodically enters into forward and swap foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge the risk from third party and intercompany payments resulting from existing obligations. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros or Australian Dollars. These foreign exchange contracts are fair value hedges of a related liability or asset recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (Unaudited). The gain or loss on the derivative hedge contracts is recorded in earnings as an offset to the change in value of the related liability or asset at each period end. At July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009 the Successor Company had $347,031 and $37,478, respectively, of such foreign exchange derivative notional value contracts outstanding.

The Company is indirectly exposed to economic risk from fluctuating prices for underlying raw materials, including nickel, through its purchases of processed parts used in its manufacturing processes. Periodically the Company economically hedges a portion of the risk associated with these parts through swap agreements with the supplier of the parts. The swap agreements are designated as fair value hedges. The swaps effectively fix the floating price on a specified quantity of underlying raw materials through the life of the purchase contract with the supplier. The unrealized change in fair value of the hedge contracts is recorded in earnings and as a hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The unrealized gains or losses are reversed from earnings as the hedged purchases of processed parts also effects earnings. At July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009 the Successor Company had $105 and $0, respectively, of such commodity derivative notional value contracts outstanding.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy which prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques.

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

The valuation techniques required by ASC Topic 820: “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions made by the Company. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:


Level 1		Unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2		Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3		Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls must be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In addition, the Company has risk management teams that review valuation, including independent price validation for certain instruments. Further, in other instances, the Company retains independent pricing vendors to assist in valuing certain instruments.

The Company’s derivatives are valued using internal models that are based on market observable inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities.

The Successor Company’s net derivative portfolio at July 4, 2010 contains Level 2 instruments and represents commodity and foreign exchange contracts.

In connection with the combination of Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs, Spectrum Brands (i) entered into a new senior secured term loan pursuant to a new senior credit agreement (the “Senior Credit Agreement”) consisting of a $750,000 U.S. Dollar Term Loan due June 16, 2016 (the “Term Loan”), (ii) issued $750,000 in aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Senior Secured Notes maturing June 15, 2018 (the “9.5% Notes”) and (iii) entered into a $300,000 U.S. Dollar asset based revolving loan facility due June 16, 2014 (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Senior Credit Agreement, the “Senior Credit Facilities” and the Senior Credit Facilities together with the 9.5% Notes, the “Senior Secured Facilities”). The proceeds from the Senior Secured Facilities were used to repay Spectrum Brands’ then-existing senior term credit facility (the “Prior Term Facility”) and Spectrum Brands’ then-existing asset based revolving loan facility, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing and for general corporate purposes.

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

The 9.5% Notes and 12% Notes were issued by Spectrum Brands. SB/RH Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SB Holdings, and the wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of Spectrum Brands are the guarantors under the 9.5% Notes. The wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of Spectrum Brands are the guarantors under the 12% Notes. SB Holdings is not an issuer or guarantor of the 9.5% Notes or the 12% Notes. SB Holdings is also not a borrower or guarantor under the Company’s Term Loan or the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. Spectrum Brands is the borrower under the Term Loan and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries along with SB/RH Holdings, LLC are the guarantors under that facility. Spectrum Brands and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries are the borrowers under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and SB/RH Holdings, LLC is a guarantor of that facility.

Senior Term Credit Facility

The Term Loan has a maturity date of June 16, 2016. Subject to certain mandatory prepayment events, the Term Loan is subject to repayment according to a scheduled amortization, with the final payment of all amounts outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest, due at maturity. Among other things, the Term Loan provides for a minimum Eurodollar interest rate floor of 1.5% and interest spreads over market rates of 6.5%.

The Senior Credit Agreement contains financial covenants with respect to debt, including, but not limited to, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, which covenants, pursuant to their terms, become more restrictive over time. In addition, the Senior Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures and merge or acquire or sell assets. Pursuant to a guarantee and collateral agreement, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries have guaranteed their respective obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement and related loan documents and have pledged substantially all of their respective assets to secure such obligations. The Senior Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults and cross-defaults on other material indebtedness.

The Term Loan was issued at a 2.00% discount and was recorded net of the $15,000 amount incurred. The discount will be amortized as an adjustment to the carrying value of principal with a corresponding charge to interest expense over the remaining life of the Senior Credit Agreement. During both the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded $25,968 of fees in connection with the Senior Credit Agreement. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (Unaudited) as of July 4, 2010 and will be amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the Senior Credit Agreement.

At July 4, 2010, the aggregate amount outstanding under the Term Loan totaled $750,000.

At September 30, 2009, the aggregate amount outstanding under the Prior Term Facility totaled a U.S. Dollar equivalent of $1,391,459, consisting of principal amounts of $973,125 under the U.S. Dollar Term B Loan, €254,970 under the Euro Facility (USD $371,874 at September 30, 2009) as well as letters of credit outstanding under the L/C Facility totaling $46,460.

At July 4, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Senior Credit Agreement.

9.5% Notes

At July 4, 2010, Company had outstanding principal of $750,000 under the 9.5% Notes maturing June 15, 2018.

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

The Company may redeem all or a part of the 9.5% Notes, upon not less than 30 or more than 60 days notice at specified redemption prices. Further, the indenture governing the 9.5% Notes (the “2018 Indenture”) requires the Company to make an offer, in cash, to repurchase all or a portion of the applicable outstanding notes for a specified redemption price, including a redemption premium, upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company, as defined in such indenture.

The 2018 Indenture contains customary covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, payment of dividends on or redemption or repurchase of equity interests, the making of certain investments, expansion into unrelated businesses, creation of liens on assets, merger or consolidation with another company, transfer or sale of all or substantially all assets, and transactions with affiliates.

In addition, the 2018 Indenture provides for customary events of default, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to make payments on or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default under the 2018 Indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the 9.5% Notes. If any other event of default under the 2018 Indenture occurs and is continuing, the trustee for the 2018 Indenture or the registered holders of at least 25% in the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 9.5% Notes may declare the acceleration of the amounts due under those notes.

At July 4, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the 2018 Indenture. The Company, however, is subject to certain limitations as a result of the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under the 2018 Indenture being below 2:1. Until the test is satisfied, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries are limited in their ability to make significant acquisitions or incur significant additional senior credit facility debt beyond the Senior Credit Facilities. The Successor Company does not expect its inability to satisfy the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test to impair its ability to provide adequate liquidity to meet the short-term and long-term liquidity requirements of its existing businesses, although no assurance can be given in this regard.

The 9.5% Notes were issued at a 1.37% discount and were recorded net of the $10,245 amount incurred. The discount will be amortized as an adjustment to the carrying value of principal with a corresponding charge to interest expense over the remaining life of the 9.5% Notes. During both the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded $20,810 of fees in connection with the issuance of the 9.5% Notes. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (Unaudited) as of July 4, 2010 and will be amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the 9.5% Notes.

12% Notes

On August 28, 2009, in connection with emergence from the voluntary reorganization under Chapter 11 and pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued $218,076 in aggregate principal amount of 12% Notes maturing August 28, 2019. Semiannually, at its option, the Company may elect to pay interest on the 12% Notes in cash or as payment in kind, or “PIK”. PIK interest would be added to principal upon the relevant semi-annual interest payment date. Under the Prior Term Facility, the Company agreed to make interest payments on the 12% Notes through PIK for the first three semi-annual interest payment periods. As a result of the refinancing of the Prior Term Facility the Company is no longer required to make interest payments as payment in kind after the semi-annual interest payment date of August 28, 2010. During both the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, the Company reclassified $13,085 of accrued interest from Other long term liabilities to principal in connection with the PIK provision of the 12% Notes. At July 4, 2010, the Company had $9,632 of accrued

interest included in Other long term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (Unaudited) that will be reclassified to principal upon the next semi-annual interest payment date of August 28, 2010.

The Company may redeem all or a part of the 12% Notes, upon not less than 30 or more than 60 days notice, beginning August 28, 2012 at specified redemption prices. Further, the indenture governing the 12% Notes require the Company to make an offer, in cash, to repurchase all or a portion of the applicable outstanding notes for a specified redemption price, including a redemption premium, upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company, as defined in such indenture.

At July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding principal of $231,161 and $218,076, respectively, under the 12% Notes.

The indenture governing the 12% Notes (the “2019 Indenture”), contains customary covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, payment of dividends on or redemption or repurchase of equity interests, the making of certain investments, expansion into unrelated businesses, creation of liens on assets, merger or consolidation with another company, transfer or sale of all or substantially all assets, and transactions with affiliates.

In addition, the 2019 Indenture provides for customary events of default, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to make payments on or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default under the indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the 12% Notes. If any other event of default under the 2019 Indenture occurs and is continuing, the trustee for the indenture or the registered holders of at least 25% in the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 12% Notes may declare the acceleration of the amounts due under those notes.

At July 4, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the 12% Notes. The Company, however, is subject to certain limitations as a result of the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under the 2019 Indenture being below 2:1. Until the test is satisfied, Spectrum Brands and certain of its subsidiaries are limited in their ability to make significant acquisitions or incur significant additional senior credit facility debt beyond the Senior Credit Facilities. The Company does not expect its inability to satisfy the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test to impair its ability to provide adequate liquidity to meet the short-term and long-term liquidity requirements of its existing businesses, although no assurance can be given in this regard.

In connection with the Merger, the Company obtained the consent of the note holders to certain amendments to the 2019 Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”). The Supplemental Indenture became effective upon the closing of the Merger. Among other things, the Supplemental Indenture amended the definition of change in control to exclude the Harbinger Capital Partners Master Fund I, Ltd. (“Harbinger Master Fund”) and Harbinger Capital Partners Special Situations Fund, L.P. (“Harbinger Special Fund”) and, together with Harbinger Master Fund, the “HCP Funds”) and Global Opportunities Breakaway Ltd. (together with the HCP Funds, the “Harbinger Parties”) and increased the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness up to $1,850,000.

During the nine month period ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded $2,950 of fees in connection with the consent. The fees are classified as Debt issuance costs within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (Unaudited) as of July 4, 2010 and will be amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the remaining life of the 12% Notes effective with the closing of the Merger.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility is governed by a credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America as administrative agent (the “Agent”). The ABL Revolving Credit Facility consists of revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”), with a portion available for letters of credit and a portion available as swing line loans, in each case subject to the terms and limits described therein.

The Revolving Loans may be drawn, repaid and reborrowed without premium or penalty. The proceeds of borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are to be used for costs, expenses and fees in connection with the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, for working capital requirements of the Company and its subsidiaries’, restructuring costs, and other general corporate purposes.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility carries an interest rate, at the Company’s option, which is subject to change based on availability under the facility, of either: (a) the base rate plus currently 2.75% per annum or (b) the reserve-adjusted LIBOR rate (the “Eurodollar Rate”) plus currently 3.75% per annum. No amortization will be required with respect to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility will mature on June 16, 2014.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains various representations and warranties and covenants, including, without limitation, enhanced collateral reporting, and a maximum fixed charge coverage ratio. The ABL Credit Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults and cross-defaults on other material indebtedness.

At July 4, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the ABL Credit Agreement.

During both the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded $9,759 of fees in connection with the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

The Company funds its U.S. pension plans at a level to maintain, within established guidelines, the IRS-defined 96 percent current liability funded status. At January 1, 2010, the date of the most recent calculation, all U.S. funded defined benefit pension plans reflected a current

liability funded status equal to or greater than 96 percent. Additionally, in compliance with the Company’s funding policy, annual contributions to non-U.S. defined benefit plans are equal to the actuarial recommendations or statutory requirements in the respective countries.

The Company also sponsors or participates in a number of other non-U.S. pension arrangements, including various retirement and termination benefit plans, some of which are covered by local law or coordinated with government-sponsored plans, which are not significant in the aggregate and therefore are not included in the information presented below.

The Company also has various nonqualified deferred compensation agreements with certain of its employees. Under certain of these agreements, the Company has agreed to pay certain amounts annually for the first 15 years subsequent to retirement or to a designated beneficiary upon death. It is management’s intent that life insurance contracts owned by the Company will fund these agreements. Under the remaining agreements, the Company has agreed to pay such deferred amounts in up to 15 annual installments beginning on a date specified by the employee, subsequent to retirement or disability, or to a designated beneficiary upon death.

Other Benefits

Under the Rayovac postretirement plan the Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to eligible retired employees. Participants earn retiree health care benefits after reaching age 45 over the next 10 succeeding years of service and remain eligible until reaching age 65. The plan is contributory; retiree contributions have been established as a flat dollar amount with contribution rates expected to increase at the active medical trend rate. The plan is unfunded. The Company is amortizing the transition obligation over a 20-year period.

The Company’s results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009 reflect the following pension and deferred compensation benefit costs:

The Company sponsors a defined contribution pension plan for its domestic salaried employees, which allows participants to make contributions by salary reduction pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Prior to April 1, 2009 the Company contributed annually from 3% to 6% of participants’ compensation based on age or service, and had the ability to make additional discretionary contributions. The Company suspended all contributions to its U.S. subsidiaries defined contribution pension plans effective April 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009. Effective January 1, 2010 the Company reinstated its annual contribution as described above. The Company also sponsors defined contribution pension plans for employees of certain foreign subsidiaries. Successor Company contributions charged to operations, including discretionary amounts, for the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010 were $933 and $2,408, respectively. Predecessor Company contributions charged to operations, including discretionary amounts, for the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009 were $134 and $2,583, respectively.

10 INCOME TAXES

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions and is subject to ongoing examination by the various taxing authorities. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions are the U.S., U.K., and Germany. In the U.S. federal tax filings for years prior to and including Spectrum Brands fiscal year ended September 30, 2006 are closed. However, the federal net operating loss carryforward from Spectrum Brands fiscal year ended September 30, 2006 is subject to Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) examination until the year that such net operating loss carryforward is utilized and that year is closed for audit. Spectrum Brands fiscal years ended September 30, 2007, 2008, and 2009 remain open to examination by the IRS. Filings in various U.S. state and local jurisdictions are also subject to audit and to date no significant audit matters have arisen.

In the U.S. federal tax filings for years prior to and including Russell Hobbs fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 are closed. However, the federal net operating loss carryforward from Russell Hobbs fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 is subject to Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) examination until the year that such net operating loss carryforward is utilized and that year is closed for audit. Russell Hobbs fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 remains open to examination by the IRS. Filings in various U.S. state and local jurisdictions are also subject to audit and to date no significant audit matters have arisen.

During Fiscal 2010, certain of the Company’s German legal entities are undergoing audits for the fiscal years ended 2003 through 2006. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the examinations; however, it is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months some portion of previously unrecognized tax benefits could be recognized.

The Global Batteries & Personal Care segment does business in Venezuela through a Venezuelan subsidiary. At January 4, 2010, the beginning of the Company’s second quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company determined that Venezuela meets the definition of a highly inflationary economy under GAAP. As a result, beginning January 4, 2010, the U.S. dollar is the functional currency for the Company’s Venezuelan subsidiary. Accordingly, going forward, currency remeasurement adjustments for this subsidiary’s financial statements and other transactional foreign exchange gains and losses are reflected in earnings. Through January 3, 2010, prior to being designated as highly inflationary, translation adjustments related to our Venezuelan subsidiary were reflected in Shareholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income.

In addition, on January 8, 2010, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to devalue its currency, the Bolivar fuerte, relative to the U.S. dollar. The official exchange rate for imported goods classified as essential, such as food and medicine, changed from 2.15 to 2.6 to the U.S. dollar, while payments for other non-essential goods moved to an exchange rate of 4.3 to the U.S. dollar. Some of the Company’s imported products fall into the essential classification and qualify for the 2.6 rate; however, the Company’s overall results in Venezuela will be reflected at the 4.3 rate expected to be applicable to dividend repatriations. As a result, the Company remeasured the local statement of financial position of its Venezuela entity during the second quarter of Fiscal 2010 to reflect the impact of the devaluation. There is also an ongoing impact related to measuring the Company’s Venezuelan statement of operations at the new exchange rate of 4.3 to the U.S. dollar.

The designation of the Company’s Venezuela entity as a highly inflationary economy and the devaluation of the Bolivar fuerte resulted in a $150 and $1,306 reduction to the Company’s operating income during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, respectively. The Company also reported a foreign exchange loss in Other expense (income), net, of $5,823 for the nine month period ended July 4, 2010.

12 ACQUISITION AND INTEGRATION RELATED CHARGES

Acquisition and integration related charges reflected in Operating expenses include, but are not limited to transaction costs such as banking, legal and accounting professional fees directly related to the acquisition, termination and related costs for transitional and certain other employees, integration related professional fees and other post business combination related expenses associated with the Merger of Russell Hobbs.

In Fiscal 2007, the Company began managing its business in three vertically integrated, product-focused reporting segments; Global Batteries & Personal Care, Global Pet Supplies and the Home and Garden Business. As part of this realignment, the Company’s Global Operations organization, previously included in corporate expense, consisting of research and development, manufacturing management, global purchasing, quality operations and inbound supply chain, is now included in each of the operating segments. In connection with these changes the Company undertook a number of cost reduction initiatives, primarily headcount reductions, at the corporate and operating segment levels (the “Global Realignment Initiatives”). The Successor Company recorded $2,098 and $1,115 of pretax restructuring and related charges during the three and nine month periods ended July 4, 2010, respectively, and the Predecessor Company recorded $1,448 and $12,499 of pretax restructuring and related charges during the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2009, respectively, in connection with the Global Realignment Initiatives.

14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has provided for the estimated costs associated with environmental remediation activities at some of its current and former manufacturing sites. The Company believes that any additional liability in excess of the amounts provided of approximately $9,626, which may result from resolution of these matters, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In December 2009, San Francisco Technology, Inc. filed an action in the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company, as well as a number of unaffiliated defendants, claiming that each of the defendants had falsely marked patents on certain of its products in violation of Article 35, Section 292 of the U.S. Code and seeking to have civil fines imposed on each of the defendants for such claimed violations. This matter is currently stayed pending resolution of a similar case in which the Company is not a party. The Company is reviewing the claims but is unable to estimate any possible losses at this time.

In May 2010, Herengrucht Group, LLC filed an action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California against the Company claiming that the Company had falsely marked patents on certain of its products in violation of Article 35, Section 292 of the U.S. Code and seeking to have civil fines imposed on each of the defendants for such claimed violations. The Company is reviewing the claims but is unable to estimate any possible losses at this time.

A subsidiary of the Company is a defendant in NACCO Industries, Inc. et al. v. Applica Incorporated et al., Case No. C.A. 2541-VCL, which was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in November 2006.

The original complaint in this action alleged a claim for, among other things, breach of contract against Applica and a number of tort claims against certain entities affiliated with the Harbinger Master Fund and Harbinger Special Fund and, together with Harbinger Master Fund, the HCP Funds. The claims against Applica related to the alleged breach of the merger agreement between Applica and NACCO Industries, Inc. (“NACCO”) and one of its affiliates, which agreement was terminated following Applica’s receipt of a superior merger offer from the HCP Funds. On October 22, 2007, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint asserting claims against

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

Applica for, among other things, breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith relating to the termination of the NACCO merger agreement and asserting various tort claims against Applica and the HCP Funds. The original complaint was filed in conjunction with a motion preliminarily to enjoin the HCP Funds’ acquisition of Applica. On December 1, 2006, plaintiffs withdrew their motion for a preliminary injunction. In light of the consummation of Applica’s merger with affiliates of the HCP Funds in January 2007 (Applica is currently a subsidiary of Russell Hobbs), the Company believes that any claim for specific performance is moot. Applica filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in December 2007. Rather than respond to the motion to dismiss the amended complaint, NACCO filed a motion for leave to file a second amended complaint, which was granted in May 2008. Applica moved to dismiss the second amended complaint, which motion was granted in part and denied in part in December 2009.

The trial is currently scheduled for February 2011. The Company may be unable to resolve the disputes successfully or without incurring significant costs and expenses. As a result, Russell Hobbs and Harbinger Master Fund have entered into an indemnification agreement, dated as of February 9, 2010, by which Harbinger Master Fund has agreed, effective upon the consummation of the Merger, to indemnify Russell Hobbs, its subsidiaries and any entity that owns all of the outstanding voting stock of Russell Hobbs against any out-of-pocket losses, costs, expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and other damages in excess of $3,000 incurred with respect to this litigation and any future litigation or legal action against the indemnified parties arising out of or relating to the matters which form the basis of this litigation.

Applica Consumer Products, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, is a defendant in three asbestos lawsuits in which the plaintiffs have alleged injury as the result of exposure to asbestos in hair dryers distributed by that subsidiary over 20 years ago. Although Applica never manufactured such products, asbestos was used in certain hair dryers distributed by it prior to 1979. Russell Hobbs, another subsidiary, is a defendant in one asbestos lawsuit in which the plaintiff has alleged injury as the result of exposure to asbestos in toasters and/or toaster ovens. There are numerous defendants named in these lawsuits, many of whom, unlike Russell Hobbs or Applica, actually manufactured asbestos containing products. The Company believes that these actions are without merit, but may be unable to resolve the disputes successfully without incurring significant expenses. At this time, the Company does not believe it has coverage under its insurance policies for the asbestos lawsuits.

The Company is a defendant in various other matters of litigation generally arising out of the ordinary course of business.

The Company does not believe that any other matters or proceedings presently pending will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

15 ACQUISITION

On June 16, 2010, the Company merged with Russell Hobbs. Headquartered in Miramar, Florida, Russell Hobbs is a designer, marketer and distributor of a broad range of branded small household appliances. Russell Hobbs markets and distributes small kitchen and home appliances, pet and pest products and personal care products. Russell Hobbs has a broad portfolio of recognized brand names, including Black & Decker, George Foreman, Russell Hobbs, Toastmaster, LitterMaid, Farberware, Breadman and Juiceman. Russell Hobbs’ customers include mass merchandisers, specialty retailers and appliance distributors primarily in North America, South America, Europe and Australia.

The results of Russell Hobbs operations since June 16, 2010 are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited). The financial results of Russell Hobbs are reported as a separate business segment, Small Appliances. Russell Hobbs contributed $35,755 in Net sales, and recorded Operating income of $647 for the period from June 16, 2010 through the period ended July 4, 2010, which includes $1,490 of Acquisition and integration related charges.

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), the Company accounted for the Merger by applying the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred in a business combination be measured at fair value as of the closing date of the acquisition. After consummation of the Merger, the stockholders of Spectrum Brands, inclusive of Harbinger, own approximately 60% of SB Holdings and the stockholders of Russell Hobbs own approximately 40% of SB Holdings. Inasmuch as Russell Hobbs is a private company and its common stock was not publicly traded, the closing market price of the Spectrum Brands common stock at June 15, 2010 was used to calculate the purchase price. The total purchase price of Russell Hobbs was approximately $597,579 determined as follows:


Spectrum Brands closing price per share on June 15, 2010	$	28.15
Purchase price—Russell Hobbs allocation—20,704 shares⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾	$	575,203
Cash payment to pay off Russell Hobbs’ north american credit facility		22,376

Total purchase price of Russell Hobbs	$	597,579

⁽ ¹ ⁾

Number of shares calculated based upon conversion formula, as defined in the Merger Agreement, using balances as of June 16, 2010.

⁽ ² ⁾

The fair value of 271 shares of unvested restricted stock units as they relate to post combination services will be recorded as operating expense over the remaining service period and were assumed to have no fair value for the purchase price.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The total purchase price for Russell Hobbs was allocated to the preliminary net tangible and intangible assets based upon their preliminary fair values at June 16, 2010 as set forth below. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary net tangible assets and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a preliminary valuation and the estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to the fair values of certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired, certain legal matters, amounts for income taxes including deferred tax accounts, amounts for uncertain tax positions, and net operating loss carryforwards inclusive of associated limitations, the determination of identifiable intangible assets and the final allocation of goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist it in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. The preliminary purchase price allocation for Russell Hobbs is as follows:


Current assets	$	307,809
Property, plant and equipment		15,150
Intangible assets		363,327
Goodwill		120,079
Other assets		15,752

Total assets acquired	$	822,117
Current liabilities		142,046
Total debt		18,970
Long-term liabilities		63,522

Total liabilities assumed	$	224,538

Net assets acquired	$	597,579

Preliminary Pre-Acquisition Contingencies Assumed

The Company has evaluated and continues to evaluate pre-acquisition contingencies relating to Russell Hobbs that existed as of the acquisition date. Based on the evaluation to date, the Company has preliminarily determined that certain pre-acquisition contingencies are probable in nature and estimable as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, the Company has preliminarily recorded its best estimates for these contingencies as part of the preliminary purchase price allocation for Russell Hobbs. The Company continues to gather information relating to all pre-acquisition contingencies that it has assumed from Russell Hobbs. Any changes to the pre-acquisition contingency amounts recorded during the measurement period will be included in the purchase price allocation. Subsequent to the end of the measurement period any adjustments to pre-acquisition contingency amounts will be reflected in the Company’s results of operations.

Certain estimated values are not yet finalized and are subject to change, which could be significant. The Company will finalize the amounts recognized as it obtains the information necessary to complete its analysis during the measurement period. The following items are provisional and subject to change:

•

tangible assets and liabilities acquired;

•

amounts for legal contingencies, pending the finalization of the Company’s examination and evaluation of the portfolio of filed cases;

•

amounts for income taxes including deferred tax accounts, amounts for uncertain tax positions, and net operating loss carryforwards inclusive of associated limitations; and

•

the determination of identifiable intangible assets and the final allocation of Goodwill.

ASC 805 requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, the Company performed a preliminary valuation of the assets and liabilities of Russell Hobbs at June 16, 2010. Significant adjustments as a result of that preliminary valuation are summarized as followed:

•

Inventories—An adjustment of $1,721 was recorded to adjust inventory to fair value. Finished goods were valued at estimated selling prices less the sum of costs of disposal and a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort.

•

Deferred tax liabilities, net—An adjustment of $43,086 was recorded to adjust deferred taxes for the preliminary fair value allocations.

•

Property, plant and equipment, net—An adjustment of $(455) was recorded to adjust the net book value of property, plant and equipment to fair value giving consideration to their highest and best use. Key assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s property, plant and equipment were based on the cost approach.

•

Certain indefinite-lived intangible assets were valued using a relief from royalty methodology. Customer relationships and certain definite-lived intangible assets were valued using a multi-period excess earnings method. Certain intangible assets are subject to sensitive business factors of which only a portion are within control of the Company’s management. The total fair value of indefinite and definite lived intangibles was $363,327 as of June 16, 2010. A summary of the significant key inputs were as follows:

SPECTRUM BRANDS HOLDINGS, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)—(Continued)

(Amounts in thousands, except per share figures)

•

The Company valued customer relationships using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method. In determining the fair value of the customer relationship, the multi-period excess earnings approach values the intangible asset at the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the customer relationship after deducting contributory asset charges. The incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the subject intangible asset are then discounted to their present value. Only expected sales from current customers were used which included an expected growth rate of 3%. The Company assumed a customer retention rate of approximately 93% which was supported by historical retention rates. Income taxes were estimated at 36% and amounts were discounted using a rate of 15.5%. The customer relationships were valued at $38,000 under this approach.

•

The Company valued trade names and trademarks using the income approach, specifically the relief from royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the trade name was not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions of Russell Hobbs related trademarks and trade names, other similar trademark licensing and transaction agreements and the relative profitability and perceived contribution of the trademarks and trade names. Royalty rates used in the determination of the fair values of trade names and trademarks ranged from 2.0% to 5.5% of expected net sales related to the respective trade names and trademarks. The Company anticipates using the majority of the trade names and trademarks for an indefinite period as demonstrated by the sustained use of each subjected trademark. In estimating the fair value of the trademarks and trade names, nets sales were estimated to grow at a rate of 1%-12% annually with a terminal year growth rate of 3%. Income taxes were estimated at a range of 30%-38% and amounts were discounted using rates between 15.5%-16.5%. Trade name and trademarks were valued at $170,930 under this approach.

•

The Company valued a trade name license agreement using the income approach, specifically the multi-period excess earnings method. In determining the fair value of the trade name license agreement, the multi-period excess earnings approach values the intangible asset at the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the trade name license agreement after deducting contributory asset charges. The incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the subject intangible asset are then discounted to their present value. In estimating the fair value of the trade name license agreement net sales were estimated to grow at a rate of 1% annually. The Company assumed a twelve year useful life of the trade name license agreement. Income taxes were estimated at 37% and amounts were discounted using a rate of 15.5%. The trade name license agreement was valued at $149,200 under this approach.

•

The Company valued technology using the income approach, specifically the relief from royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the technology was not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors including prior transactions of Russell Hobbs related licensing agreements and the importance of the technology and profit levels, among other considerations. Royalty rates used in the determination of the fair values of technologies were 2% of expected net sales related to the respective technology. The Company anticipates using these technologies through the legal life of the underlying patent and therefore the expected life of these technologies was equal to the remaining legal life of the underlying patents ranging from 9 to 11

years. In estimating the fair value of the technologies, nets sales were estimated to grow at a rate of 3%-12% annually. Income taxes were estimated at 37% and amounts were discounted using the rate of 15.5%. The technology assets were valued at $4,100 under this approach.

16 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Employers’ Disclosures About Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets

In December 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance on employers’ disclosures about assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. It requires employers to disclose information about fair value measurements of plan assets. The objectives of the disclosures are to provide an understanding of: (a) how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies, (b) the major categories of plan assets, (c) the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets, (d) the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs on changes in plan assets for the period and (e) significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. The disclosures required are effective for the Company’s annual financial statements for the period that began after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets

In June 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to improve the information provided in financial statements concerning transfers of financial assets, including the effects of transfers on financial position, financial performance and cash flows, and any continuing involvement of the transferor with the transferred financial assets. The provisions are effective for the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2010. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the guidance may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Variable Interest Entities

In June 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance requiring an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. It also requires enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. The provisions are effective for the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2010. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the guidance may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SB Holdings”), is a global branded consumer products company and was created in connection with the combination of Spectrum Brands, Inc. (“Spectrum Brands”), a global branded consumer products company and Russell Hobbs, Inc. (“Russell Hobbs”), a small appliance brand company, to form a new combined company (the “Merger”). The Merger was consummated on June 16, 2010. As a result of the Merger, both Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs are wholly-owned subsidiaries of SB Holdings and Russell Hobbs is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Spectrum Brands. SB Holdings trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SPB.”

In connection with the Merger, we refinanced our existing senior debt and a portion of Russell Hobbs’ existing senior debt through a combination of a new $750 million U.S. Dollar Term Loan due June 16, 2016, new 9.5% Senior Secured Notes maturing June 15, 2018 and a new $300 million ABL revolving facility due June 16, 2014.

As further described below, on February 3, 2009, we and our wholly owned United States (“U.S.”) subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On August 28, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), the Debtors emerged from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Effective as of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Debtors’ confirmed plan of reorganization, we converted from a Wisconsin corporation to a Delaware corporation.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms the “Company,” “Spectrum,” “we,” “our” or “us” are used to refer to SB Holdings and its subsidiaries subsequent to the Merger and Spectrum Brands prior to the Merger, as well as both before and on and after the Effective Date. The term “Old Spectrum,” refers only to Spectrum Brands, our Wisconsin predecessor, and its subsidiaries prior to the Effective Date.

Financial information included in our financial statements prepared after August 30, 2009 will not be comparable to financial information from prior periods. See Item 1A. Risk Factors—“Risks Related To Our Emergence From Bankruptcy” for more information.

Business Overview

We are a global branded consumer products company with positions in seven major product categories: consumer batteries; small appliances; pet supplies; electric shaving and grooming; electric personal care; portable lighting; and home and garden control products.

We manage our business in four reportable segments: (i) Global Batteries & Personal Care, which consists of our worldwide battery, shaving and grooming, personal care and portable lighting business (“Global Batteries & Personal Care”); (ii) Global Pet Supplies, which consists of our worldwide pet supplies business (“Global Pet Supplies”); (iii) the Home and Garden Business, which consists of our home and garden control product offerings, including household insecticides, repellants and herbicides (the “Home and Garden Business”); and (iv) Small Appliances, which consists of small electrical appliances primarily in the kitchen and home product categories (“Small Appliances”).

We manufacture and market alkaline, zinc carbon and hearing aid batteries, herbicides, insecticides and repellants and specialty pet supplies. We design and market rechargeable batteries, battery-powered lighting products, electric shavers and accessories, grooming products and hair care appliances. With the addition of Russell Hobbs we design, market and distribute a broad range of branded small household appliances and personal care products. Our manufacturing and product development facilities are located in the U.S., Europe, Latin America and Asia. Substantially all of our rechargeable batteries and chargers, shaving and grooming products, small household appliances, personal care products and portable lighting products are manufactured by third-party suppliers, primarily located in Asia.

We sell our products in approximately 120 countries through a variety of trade channels, including retailers, wholesalers and distributors, hearing aid professionals, industrial distributors and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and enjoy strong name recognition in our markets under the Rayovac, VARTA and Remington brands, each of which has been in existence for more than 80 years, and under the Tetra, 8-in-1, Spectracide, Cutter, Black & Decker, George Foreman, Russell Hobbs, Farberware and various other brands.

Global and geographic strategic initiatives and financial objectives are determined at the corporate level. Each business segment is responsible for implementing defined strategic initiatives and achieving certain financial objectives and has a general manager responsible for sales and marketing initiatives and the financial results for all product lines within that business segment.

Our operating performance is influenced by a number of factors including: general economic conditions; foreign exchange fluctuations; trends in consumer markets; consumer confidence and preferences; our overall product line mix, including pricing and gross margin, which vary by product line and geographic market; pricing of certain raw materials and commodities; energy and fuel prices; and our general competitive position, especially as impacted by our competitors’ advertising and promotional activities and pricing strategies.

Chapter 11 Proceedings

On February 3, 2009, we announced that we had reached agreements with certain noteholders, representing, in the aggregate, approximately 70% of the face value of our then outstanding senior subordinated notes, to pursue a refinancing that, if implemented as proposed, would significantly reduce our outstanding debt. On the same day, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, in the Bankruptcy Court (the “Bankruptcy Filing”) and filed with the Bankruptcy Court a proposed plan of reorganization (the “Proposed Plan”) that detailed the Debtors’ proposed terms for the refinancing. The Chapter 11 cases were jointly administered by the Bankruptcy Court as Case No. 09-50455 (the “Bankruptcy Cases”). The Bankruptcy Court entered a written order (the “Confirmation Order”) on July 15, 2009 confirming the Proposed Plan (as so confirmed, the “Plan”). For more details regarding the Chapter 11 Proceedings, as well as the events leading to our voluntary filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, see “Item 1. Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2009.

On the Effective Date the Plan became effective, and the Debtors emerged from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to and by operation of the Plan, on the Effective Date, all of Old Spectrum’s existing equity securities, including the existing common stock and stock options, were extinguished and deemed cancelled. Reorganized Spectrum Brands, Inc. filed a certificate of incorporation authorizing new shares of common stock. Pursuant to and in accordance with the Plan, on the Effective Date, reorganized Spectrum Brands, Inc. issued a total of 27,030,000 shares of common stock and approximately $218 million in aggregate principal amount of 12% Senior Subordinated Toggle Notes due 2019 (the “12% Notes”) to holders of allowed claims with respect to Old Spectrum’s 8¹/2 % Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the “8¹/2 Notes”), 7³/8 % Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the “7³/8 Notes”) and Variable Rate Toggle Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the “Variable Rate Notes”) (collectively, the “Senior Subordinated Notes”). For a further discussion of the 12% Notes see “Debt Financing Activities—12% Notes.” Also on the Effective Date, reorganized Spectrum Brands, Inc. issued a total of 2,970,000 shares of common stock to supplemental and sub-supplemental debtor-in-possession credit facility participants in respect of the equity fee earned under the Debtors’ debtor-in-possession credit facility.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Nine Month Period Ended July 4, 2010 Compared to Fiscal Quarter and Fiscal Nine Month Period Ended June 28, 2009

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we refer to the fiscal three month period ended July 4, 2010 as the “Fiscal 2010 Quarter,” the fiscal nine month period ended July 4, 2010 as the “Fiscal 2010 Nine Months,” the fiscal three month period ended June 28, 2009 as the “Fiscal 2009 Quarter” and the fiscal nine month period ended June 28, 2009 as the “Fiscal 2009 Nine Months.”

We have presented the growing products portion of our Home and Garden Business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The board of directors of Old Spectrum committed to the shutdown of the growing products portion of the Home and Garden Business in November 2008 and the shutdown was completed during the second quarter of our Fiscal 2009. See Note 3, Significant Accounting Policies—Discontinued Operations, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on the shutdown of the growing products portion of our Home and Garden Business. As a result, and unless specifically stated, all discussions regarding the Fiscal 2010 Quarter, the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months, the Fiscal 2009 Quarter and the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months only reflect results from our continuing operations.

Total net sales to external customers	$	653	$	589	$	1,778	$	1,641

Global consumer battery sales increased $9 million, or 5%, in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. The increase in consumer battery sales is attributable to increases in Latin America and North America of $9 million and $7 million, respectively. These gains were partially offset by declines in Europe of $5 million and unfavorable foreign exchange translation of $2 million. The decrease within Europe is primarily due to the continued exit of low margin private label sales. The $10 million, or 7%, decrease in pet supplies sales during the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter is due to decreased promotional activity from retailers and unfavorable foreign exchange translation of approximately $1 million. The $16 million, or 11%, increase in home and garden control product sales in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter is a result of greater volume with major customers driven by incentives to the retailer and promotional campaigns. Shaving and grooming product sales increased $13 million, or 23%, in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter driven by increases within Europe of $10 million. The increased shaving and grooming product sales within Europe is a result of successful promotions and operational execution. Personal care product sales during the Fiscal 2010 Quarter decreased $1 million, or 3%, compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter, as a result of unfavorable foreign exchange impacts. Lighting product sales increased $3 million, or 19%, during the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter as a result of significant new distribution to a major customer.

Global consumer battery sales increased $39 million, or 7%, in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The increase was driven by favorable foreign exchange translation of $21 million coupled with increased sales in North America and Latin America. These increases were tempered by decreased consumer battery sales of $17 million in Europe, primarily due to our continued exit of low margin private label battery sales. Pet supplies sales were virtually flat in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months, increasing $1 million to $420 million. The $1 million increase comprised of favorable foreign exchange translation of $5 million which was offset by decreased aquatics sales, primarily in the Pacific Rim. Home and garden control product sales increased $17 million, or 7%, in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The increase is due to additional sales to major customers driven by incentives to retailers and promotional campaigns. Electric shaving and grooming products increased $30 million, or 18%, in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. This increase is primarily due to increased sales in Europe of $23 million and favorable foreign exchange translation of $6 million. During the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months electric personal care sales increased $9 million, or 5%, compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months primarily due to favorable foreign exchange translation of $5 million and increases within Latin America and North America of $3 million and $2 million, respectively. These increases within electric personal care sales were slightly offset by declines in Europe of $2 million. The $6 million, or 9%, increase in portable lighting sales in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months was primarily due to favorable foreign exchange translation of $2 million coupled with the same factors mentioned above for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter was $253 million versus $230 million for the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. Our gross profit margin for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter decreased slightly to 38.6% from 39.1% in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. This slight decline in gross profit margin is primarily due to Restructuring and related charges of $2 million in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to de minimis charges during the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. Restructuring and related charges in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter were primarily related to cost reduction initiatives announced in 2009. Gross profit for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months was $647 million versus $605 million for the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. Our gross profit margin for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months decreased slightly to 36.4% from 36.8% in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. As a result of our adoption of fresh-start reporting upon emergence from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations,” (“SFAS 141”), inventory balances were revalued at August 30, 2009 resulting in an increase in such inventory balances of $49 million. As a result of the inventory revaluation, we recognized $34 million in additional cost of goods sold in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months. The impact of the inventory revaluation was offset by lower Restructuring and related charges as Cost of goods sold during the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months included $6 million of Restructuring and related charges whereas the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months included $13 million of Restructuring and related charges. The Restructuring and related charges incurred in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months were primarily associated with cost reduction initiatives announced in 2009. The $13 million of Restructuring and related charges incurred in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months primarily related to the shutdown of our Ningbo, China battery manufacturing facility. See “Restructuring and Related Charges” below, as well as Note 13, Restructuring and Related Charges, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our restructuring and related charges.

Operating Expense. Operating expenses for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter totaled $193 million versus $147 million for the Fiscal 2009 Quarter representing an increase of $46 million. During the Fiscal 2010 Quarter we incurred $17 million of Acquisition and integration related charges as a result of our merger with Russell Hobbs. During the Fiscal 2010 Quarter we also incurred $6 million of Selling expense and $3 million of General and administrative expense related to the Small Appliances segment. Also included in Operating expenses for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter was additional depreciation and amortization as a result of the revaluation of our long lived assets in connection with our adoption of fresh-start reporting upon emergence from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Operating expenses for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months totaled $523 million versus $463 million for the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months representing an increase of $60 million. The increase in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months was due to the same factors affecting the Fiscal 2010 Quarter increase partially offset by lower restructuring and related charges. In the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months we recorded approximately $11 million of restructuring and related charges which were primarily related to cost reduction initiatives announced in 2009. We recorded $27 million of restructuring and related charges in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months which related to consulting, legal and accounting fees related to the evaluation of our capital structure coupled with various cost reduction initiatives announced in 2009 and our global realignment announced in January 2007. See “Restructuring and Related Charges” below, as well as Note 13, Restructuring and Related Charges, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our restructuring and related charges.

Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a metric used by management and frequently used by the financial community which provides insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company’s ability to service debt and is one of the measures used for determining the Company’s debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period. While the Company’s management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Company’s GAAP financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA, which includes the results of Russell Hobbs’ businesses as if it was combined with Spectrum for all periods presented (see reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to Adjusted EBITDA by segment below) was $124 million for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared with $123 million for the Fiscal 2009 Quarter.

Segment Results. As discussed above, we manage our business in four reportable segments: (i) Global Batteries & Personal Care, (ii) Global Pet Supplies, (iii) Home and Garden Business; and (iv) Small Appliances.

Operating segment profits do not include restructuring and related charges, acquisition and integration related charges, interest expense, interest income, impairment charges, reorganization items and income tax expense. Expenses associated with global operations, consisting of research and development, manufacturing management, global purchasing, quality operations and inbound supply chain are included in the determination of operating segment profits. In addition, certain general and administrative expenses necessary to reflect the operating segments on a standalone basis have been included in the determination of operating segment profits. Corporate expenses include primarily general and administrative expenses associated with corporate overhead and global long-term incentive compensation plans.

All depreciation and amortization included in income from operations is related to operating segments or corporate expense. Costs are allocated to operating segments or corporate expense according to the function of each cost center. All capital expenditures are related to operating segments. Variable allocations of assets are not made for segment reporting.

Global strategic initiatives and financial objectives for each reportable segment are determined at the corporate level. Each reportable segment is responsible for implementing defined strategic initiatives and achieving certain financial objectives and has a general manager responsible for the sales and marketing initiatives and financial results for product lines within that segment. Financial information pertaining to our reportable segments is contained in Note 11, Segment Results, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

^(a)	It is the Company’s policy to record Income tax expense (benefit), and interest expense on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, such amounts are not reflected in the operating results of the operating segments.

^(b)

Adjustment reflects $61.4 million write off of unamortized deferred financing fees and discounts associated with the company’s capital structure refinanced on June 16, 2010; $5.0 million charge related to pre-payment premiums associated with the paydown of the ABL and FILO extinguished on June 16, 2010 and $15.7 million related to the termination of interest swaps and commitment fees.

^(c)

Adjustment reflects restricted stock amortization and accelerated depreciation associated with certain restructuring initiatives. Inasmuch as this amount is included within Restructuring and related charges, this adjustment negates the impact of reflecting the add-back of depreciation and amortization.

Global Batteries & Personal Care


	Fiscal Quarter						Fiscal Nine Months
	2010			2009			2010			2009
	(in millions)
Net sales to external customers	$	319		$	297		$	1,056		$	974
Segment profit	$	32		$	37		$	112		$	124
Segment profit as a % of net sales		10.0	%		12.5	%		10.6	%		12.7	%
Segment Adjusted EBITDA	$	44		$	43		$	155		$	133
Assets at July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009	$	1,538		$	1,630		$	1,538		$	1,630

Segment net sales to external customers in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter increased $22 million to $319 million from $297 million during the Fiscal 2009 Quarter, a 7% increase. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange translation impacted net sales in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter by approximately $4 million. Battery sales for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter increased to $194 million when compared to sales of $185 million in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. The increase is attributable to gains in Latin America and North America of $9 million and $7 million, respectively. The increased sales within Latin America were driven by increased specialty battery sales volume in Central America and Columbia while the increases in North America were attributable to continued sales growth with a major customer. These gains were partially offset by declines in Europe of $5 million and unfavorable foreign exchange translation of $2 million. The decrease within Europe is primarily due to the continued exit of low margin private label sales. Net sales of electric shaving and grooming products in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter increased by $13 million from their levels in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter primarily due to increases within Europe of $10 million. The increased shaving and grooming product sales within Europe is a result of successful

promotions and operational execution. We also experienced modest increases during the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter within both North America and Latin America of $2 million and $1 million, respectively. Net sales of electric personal care products in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter decreased slightly by $1 million compared to the Fiscal 2009 Quarter due to unfavorable foreign exchange translation. Net sales of portable lighting products for the Fiscal 2010 Quarter increased to $21 million as compared to sales of $18 million for the Fiscal 2009 Quarter as a result of increased distribution to a major customer. Segment net sales to external customers in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months increased $82 million to $1,056 million from $974 million during the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months, a 9% increase. Favorable foreign currency exchange translation impacted net sales in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months by approximately $35 million. Battery sales for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months increased to $629 million when compared to sales of $590 million in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The increased sales are attributable to favorable foreign currency exchange translation of $21 million coupled with increased specialty battery sales of $24 million which was partially tempered by a decline in alkaline sales of $6 million. The increase in specialty battery sales are due to greater volume in Colombia and Central America coupled with increased sales at a major customer within North America. The decrease in alkaline sales is due to the continued exit of low margin private label sales in Europe which was offset by sales with a major customer in North America. Net sales of electric shaving and grooming products in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months increased by $30 million from their levels in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months due to favorable foreign exchange translation of $6 million coupled with increased sales in Europe of $23 million. Net sales of electric personal care products in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months increased by $9 million compared to the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months due to favorable foreign exchange translation of $5 million coupled with increases within North America and Latin America of $2 million and $3 million, respectively. These increases within electric personal care sales were slightly offset by declines in Europe of $2 million. Net sales of portable lighting products for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months increased to $65 million as compared to sales of $59 million for the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The increased lighting products sales is a result of the factors mentioned above.

Segment profitability in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter was $32 million compared to $37 million in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. Segment profitability as a percentage of net sales decreased to 10.0% in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter compared to 12.5% in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. Segment profitability in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter was negatively impacted by an increase of approximately $4 million in intangible asset amortization, primarily related to customer relationship lists, as was required when we adopted fresh-start reporting upon our emergence from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Offsetting this decrease to segment profitability was higher sales, primarily due to favorable foreign exchange translation, and savings from our cost reduction initiatives announced in Fiscal 2009. Segment profitability in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months decreased to $112 million from $124 million in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. Segment profitability as a percentage of net sales decreased to 10.6% in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to 12.7% in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The decrease in segment profitability for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months was mainly attributable to a $19 million increase in cost of goods sold due to the revaluation of inventory coupled with approximately a $12 million increase in intangible amortization due to our adoption of fresh-start reporting as mentioned in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter. Offsetting this decrease to segment profitability was higher sales, primarily due to favorable foreign exchange translation, and savings from our restructuring initiatives mentioned above in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter. See “Restructuring and Related Charges” below, as well as Note 12, Restructuring and Related Charges, to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our restructuring and related charges.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA in the Fiscal 2010 Quarter was $44 million compared to $43 million in the Fiscal 2009 Quarter. Segment Adjusted EBITDA increased to $155 million in the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months compared to $133 million in the Fiscal 2009 Nine Months. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA is mainly driven by the highly efficient cost structure now in place form our cost reduction initiatives announced in Fiscal 2009 coupled with increases in market share in certain of our product categories.

Segment assets at July 4, 2010 decreased to $1,538 million from $1,630 million at September 30, 2009. The decrease is primarily due to the impact of foreign currency translation. On July 4, 2010 and September 30, 2009,

goodwill and intangible assets, which were revalued in conjunction with fresh-start reporting upon our emergence from Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, totaled approximately $869 million and $909 million, respectively. See Note 2, Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11, of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on fresh-start reporting.

Foreign Currency Translation—Venezuela Impacts

The Global Batteries & Personal Care segment does business in Venezuela through a Venezuelan subsidiary. As of January 4, 2010, the beginning of our second quarter of Fiscal 2010, we have determined that Venezuela meets the definition of a highly inflationary economy under GAAP. As a result, beginning January 4, 2010, the U.S. dollar is the functional currency for our Venezuelan subsidiary. Accordingly, going forward, currency remeasurement adjustments for this subsidiary’s financial statements and other transactional foreign exchange gains and losses are reflected in earnings. Through January 3, 2010, prior to being designated as highly inflationary, translation adjustments related to our Venezuelan subsidiary were reflected in Shareholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income.

In addition, on January 8, 2010, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to devalue its currency, the Bolivar fuerte, relative to the U.S. dollar. The official exchange rate for imported goods classified as essential, such as food and medicine, changed from 2.15 to 2.6 to the U.S. dollar, while payments for other non-essential goods moved to an exchange rate of 4.3 to the U.S. dollar. Some of our imported products fell into the essential classification and qualified for the 2.6 rate; however, our overall results in Venezuela are reflected at the 4.3 rate expected to be applicable to dividend repatriations. As a result, we remeasured the local statement of financial position of our Venezuela entity during the second quarter of our fiscal 2010 to reflect the impact of the devaluation. There will also be an ongoing impact related to measuring our Venezuelan statement of operations at the new exchange rate of 4.3 to the U.S. dollar; however, we do not expect that impact to be material.

The designation of our Venezuela entity as a highly inflationary economy and the devaluation of the Bolivar fuerte resulted in a $1 million unfavorable impact to our operating income and a foreign exchange loss, reflected in Other expense, net, of approximately $6 million for the Fiscal 2010 Nine Months.
