REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Employee Relations Committee of the
Colgate-Palmolive Company Employees Savings and Investment Plan
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Colgate-Palmolive Company Employees Savings and Investment Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Colgate-Palmolive Company Employees Savings and Investment Plan as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The supplemental information in the accompanying schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2016 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Colgate-Palmolive Company Employees Savings and Investment Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but includes supplemental information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplementary information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the basic financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information in the accompanying schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information referred to above is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The Plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements, participation and vesting standards, and fiduciary responsibility provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The Plan is also an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”). State Street Global Advisors (the “ESOP Trustee”), a division of State Street Bank & Trust Company, is the trustee of Funds D and E (the “ESOP Shares Trust”). The Bank of New York Mellon is the trustee of the remaining funds and the custodian of the Plan. Transamerica Retirement Solutions LLC is the recordkeeper of the Plan.
 
The Plan offers programs which include an employer match, a success sharing program, a retirement contribution program, a bonus savings account program, an income savings account program and a retiree insurance program. The provisions below, applicable to the Plan participants, provide only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In 1989, the Company expanded its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) through the introduction of a leveraged ESOP that funds certain benefits for employees who have met eligibility requirements.
During 2000, the ESOP entered into a loan agreement with the Company under which the benefits for the ESOP may be extended through December 2035. Repayments of principal and interest are funded through future contributions and dividends on stock held by ESOP Fund D, both paid by the Company to the ESOP. In addition, the Company guaranteed minimum funding of $130,000, on a present value basis, in excess of debt service requirements.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the ESOP had outstanding loans from the Company of $7,750 and $12,690, respectively, bearing an average interest rate of 5.7% per year. The fair value of the outstanding notes payable to the Company was estimated at approximately $12 million and $19 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively based on current interest rates for debt with similar maturities (Level 2 valuation). During 2016, the Company did not make any contributions to the ESOP.
 
Dividends on stock held by ESOP Fund D are paid to the ESOP and, together with cash contributions from the Company, are (a) used by the ESOP to repay principal and interest on the long-term notes, (b) credited to participant accounts, or (c) used to fund basic and additional basic retirement contributions.

A portion of the ESOP Fund D shares are released periodically for allocation to participants based on the ratio of debt service for the period to total debt service over the remaining scheduled life of all ESOP debt. As of December 31, 2016, 16,409,918 common shares (valued at $1,073,865) were released for allocation to participant accounts and the balance of 4,672,244 common shares (valued at $305,752) were available for future allocation to participant accounts. As of December 31, 2015, 17,690,600 common shares (valued at $1,178,548) were released for allocation to participant accounts and the balance of 5,945,584 common shares (valued at $396,095) were available for future allocation to participant accounts. The ESOP released shares are allocated to fund the employer portion of the various Plan programs described below.

Savings Program

Participant Contributions

Under the Savings Program, employees generally can contribute to the Plan between 1% and 25% of their recognized earnings (the greater of total compensation paid during the previous calendar year minus items such as reimbursement of moving expenses and special awards, or regular salary as of the most recent January 1, plus commissions and bonuses paid in the prior year). Employees who are not “highly compensated”, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), may contribute any combination up to 25% of their recognized earnings on either a before-tax (subject to certain IRC limitations) or after-tax basis. Employees who are highly compensated may contribute as follows: those employees whose 2016 recognized earnings were less than $149.9 were limited to 16% of their recognized earnings, those employees whose 2016 recognized earnings were between $150.0 and $264.9 were limited to 12% of their recognized earnings and those employees whose 2016 recognized earnings equaled or exceeded $265.0 were limited to 8% of their recognized earnings. Participants may generally begin, suspend or resume contributions, change their contribution rate and the allocation of their contributions between before-tax and after-tax earnings on a daily basis. Plan participants are always fully vested in their contributions and related investment earnings. Under the IRC, the maximum allowable pre-tax contribution for participants was $18.0 for 2016. Participants who are expected to reach or are over the age of 50 during the Plan year and have made the maximum before-tax contribution are eligible to make additional catch-up contributions. Under the IRC, the maximum allowable catch-up contribution was $6.0 for 2016 on a pre-tax basis.

Employees may direct the investment of participant contributions to any of the Plan’s investment funds, other than Funds D and E, and may change how these contributions will be invested when allocated on a daily basis. Participants may, on a daily basis, diversify / transfer their participant account balances among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E.

Company Matching Contributions

The Company and wholly-owned subsidiaries to which the Plan has been extended, make matching contributions of 50% to 75% of employee contributions up to 6% of recognized earnings, depending on years of service and collective bargaining agreements. Company matching contributions are invested in the same manner as employee elections for investment of their participant contributions. Contributions made are diversifiable, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E. Participants are 50% vested in their Company matching contribution accounts after two years of service and fully vested after three years of service or, if while active, they reach age 55, become permanently disabled, die, or in the event of Plan termination.

Incoming Rollovers

The Plan permits incoming rollovers of before-tax money from Section 403(b) plans and governmental Section 457 plans, as well as both before-tax and after-tax money from other companies’ qualified plans. Participants may direct the investment of an incoming rollover to any of the Plan’s investment funds, other than Funds D and E. Participants may, on a daily basis, diversify / transfer their rollover balances among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E.

Company Retirement Contributions Program

All eligible employees generally receive Basic Retirement Contributions (“BRCs”) and Additional Basic Retirement Contributions (“ABRCs”) equal to 4% up to 15% of recognized earnings depending on years of service and prior eligibility status in the Company’s Employees’ Retirement Income Plan. Employees of Hill’s Pet Nutrition, Inc. who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement are not eligible for these Company retirement contributions.

Participating employees may direct the investment of Company retirement contributions to be allocated among any of the Plan’s investment funds, other than Fund E. These Company retirement contributions are diversifiable, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Fund D or E. Participants are 50% vested in their account after two years of service and fully vested after three years of service, or if while active, they reach age 55, become permanently disabled, die, or in the event of Plan termination.
 
Success Sharing Program

The Success Sharing Program is designed to enable the Company to share its financial success with employees. Under the Success Sharing Program, a Success Sharing Account (“SSA”) has been established within the Plan for each eligible employee. As the Company meets or exceeds annual financial targets, shares of common stock are allocated to employee accounts according to a pre-determined formula. This program is generally available to all employees in the United States who are participants in the Plan and are on the payroll from at least June 30 through the last day of the year. If the individual is eligible but was not employed for the entire year, the allocation will be prorated. Employees are at all times fully vested in the value of their SSA. Any allocation is initially credited to Fund D. Participants may, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, diversify their SSA among any of the Plan’s investment funds, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E.

Bonus Savings Account Program

The Bonus Savings Account (“BSA”) Program is designed to enable each eligible employee to receive an allocation representing all or a portion of his/her bonus in common stock. Under this program, a BSA allocation is credited to each eligible employee’s BSA established within the Plan. The portion of an employee’s bonus that can be allocated within the BSA program is determined based on the bonus amount earned, the total number of shares of common stock available for allocation, and other factors such as an employee’s income level and Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rules. This program is generally available to all employees in the United States who are participants in the Plan. However, due to IRS restrictions, employees who have not been a participant in the Plan for at least two years are unable to participate in the program, and employees with fewer than five years of service may be ineligible to receive a BSA allocation with respect to certain bonus periods. Employees are at all times fully vested in the value of their BSA and may elect to withdraw the balance of this account from the Plan immediately or at a later date. Any allocation is initially credited to Fund D. BSA balances are diversifiable, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E.

Income Savings Account Program

The Income Savings Account (“ISA”) Program is designed to enable each eligible employee to receive an allocation representing a portion of his/her income in the form of common stock. Under this program, an ISA allocation of common stock is made each year to each eligible employee’s ISA. This program is generally available to all employees in the United States who are participants in the Plan, and who have at least five years of service as of July 2nd of the current year. Employees are at all times fully vested in the value of their ISA and may elect to withdraw the balance of this account from the Plan immediately or at a later date. Any allocation is initially credited to Fund D. ISA balances are diversifiable, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E.

Retiree Insurance Program

The Retiree Insurance Program was designed to provide funds that could be used by employees to purchase health and life insurance upon retirement. Under the Retiree Insurance Program, a Retiree Insurance Account (“RIA”) was established within the Plan for each eligible employee. Prior to September 1, 2010, shares from the Colgate Employer Common Stock Fund were allocated to each eligible employee’s RIA. Effective September 1, 2010, the Company only makes allocations into an RIA for employees who are members of one of the Hill’s Pet Nutrition, Inc. participating unions. Allocations are based upon the schedule that was in place as of the Plan year 2009. Participants are 50% vested in their RIA after two years of service and fully vested after three years of service, or if while active, reach age 55, become permanently disabled, die, or in the event of Plan termination. RIA allocations are made in the form of common stock to Fund D and are diversifiable, on a daily basis, immediately upon allocation, among any of the investment funds in the Plan, although participants cannot make transfers into Funds D and E. Employees are entitled to the value of the vested amount of their RIA upon resignation, termination or retirement.

Participant Accounts

Each participant account may be credited with the types of allocations described above as well as allocations of fund earnings or losses, and expenses. Depending on fund elections, certain participant investment accounts are also charged with monthly investment service fees. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

Distributions

Participating employees can receive a distribution from the Plan due to retirement, permanent disability, termination or death. Unvested balances will be forfeited in the event of termination. In service withdrawals are available as specified by the Plan.

Forfeitures

After the earlier of the distribution of the terminated participant’s vested account balances or the fifth anniversary of the participant’s termination, nonvested account balances become available to the Company to reduce future Company contributions and/or to pay for administrative expenses incurred by the Plan. The forfeiture balance as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $73 and $115, respectively. During 2016, the Company used $495 of forfeitures to reduce Company contributions.

Notes Receivable From Participants

Participants who have $1 or more in the Plan may borrow from the total of their fund accounts a minimum of $0.5 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50 (subject to certain offsets for prior loans) or 50% of their vested balance, subject to certain exclusions. Participants are allowed to have one ordinary loan and one loan related to the purchase of a principal residence outstanding at any time. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear a fixed rate of interest equal to the prime rate as listed in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month in which the loan was requested. Principal and interest are paid ratably via payroll deductions. Loan terms range from 1 to 15 years. Loans outstanding at December 31, 2016 had interest rates ranging from 3.3% to 8.3% and maturities through 2031. Loans outstanding at December 31, 2015 had interest rates ranging from 3.3% to 9.5% and maturities through 2030.

Plan Termination

Although the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan at any time subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of termination of the Plan, the Employee Relations Committee of the Company (the “Committee”) shall compute and distribute the value of the accounts of the participants.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes Receivable from Participants

Participant loans are stated at cost plus accrued interest. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. No allowances for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. Delinquent loans are reclassified as distributions to participants based upon the terms defined in the Plan document.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

The Plan’s investments, other than investments in common/collective trust funds and guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”), are stated at fair value based on quoted market prices or as otherwise determined by Bank of New York Mellon, the Plan’s trustee.


10

COLGATE-PALMOLIVE COMPANY
EMPLOYEES SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
(Dollars in thousands, except as indicated)


The Plan is invested in common/collective trust funds which are stated at fair value using the net asset value (“NAV”) per unit in each fund. The NAV is based on the fair value of the underlying investments owned by each trust, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding. The liabilities, which are primarily investment management fees due, are included in Due to brokers for securities purchased in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits. The common/collective trust funds are primarily comprised of a mix of equity and fixed income funds.

The Plan has entered into fully benefit-responsive GICs with insurance companies, banks and other financial institutions. The GICs represent investments that have fixed income securities paired with benefit-responsive wrap contracts. Wrap contracts are issued by high-quality financial institutions with primarily the following objectives: to provide a fixed rate of interest for a specified period of time and to enable the fund to pay participant-initiated withdrawals at book value.

As more fully discussed below, GICs are accounted for at contract value. 

In certain circumstances, the amount withdrawn from the GICs would be payable at fair value rather than at contract value. These events include termination of the Plan, a material adverse change to the provisions of the Plan, if the employer elects to withdraw from a contract in order to switch to a different investment provider, or if the terms of a successor plan (in the event of the spin-off or sale of a division) do not meet the contract issuer’s underwriting criteria for issuance of a similar contract. Such circumstances, resulting in the payment of benefits at market value rather than contract value, are not considered probable of occurring in the foreseeable future.

Examples of events that would permit a contract issuer to terminate a contract upon short notice include the Plan’s loss of its qualified status, uncorrected material breaches of responsibilities, or material and adverse changes to the provisions of the Plan. If one of these events was to occur, the contract issuer could terminate the contract at the fair value of the underlying investments (or in the case of traditional GICs, at the hypothetical fair value based upon a contractual formula).

Purchases and sales are recorded on a trade-date basis. Net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of investments includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Benefit Payments Recognition

Benefits paid directly to participants are recorded when paid.

Administration

The Plan is administered by the Committee for the benefit of the participants. Administrative expenses are paid by the Plan.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-12, “Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans (Topic 960), Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), Health and Welfare Benefit Plans (Topic 965): (Part I) Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts, (Part II) Plan Investment Disclosures, (Part III) Measurement Date Practical Expedient”, (“ASU 2015-12”). Part I eliminates the requirements to measure the fair value of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts but continues to provide certain disclosures that help users understand the nature and risks of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. Upon adoption, contract value is the only required measure for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. Part II eliminates the requirements to disclose individual investments that represent 5% or more of net assets available for benefits and the net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of investments by general type. Part II also simplifies the level of disaggregation of investments that are measured using fair value. Plans continue to disaggregate investments that are measured using fair value by general type; however, plans are no longer required to disaggregate investments by nature, characteristics and risks.

11

COLGATE-PALMOLIVE COMPANY
EMPLOYEES SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
(Dollars in thousands, except as indicated)


Further, the disclosure of information about fair value measurements is provided by general type of plan asset. Part III provides a practical expedient to permit plans to measure investments and investment-related accounts as of a month-end date that is closest to the plan’s fiscal year-end, when the fiscal period does not coincide with month-end. ASU 2015-12 was effective for the Plan beginning January 1, 2016 and as required, was adopted retrospectively. As a result, (i) fully benefit responsive investment contracts are stated at contract value; and (ii) for individual investments that represent 5% or more of net assets available for benefits, the net appreciation or depreciation of investments by general type, as well as the disaggregation of investments by nature, characteristics and risks in the fair value table, have been eliminated. Part III is not applicable to the Plan’s financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, “Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its equivalent)”, (“ASU 2015-07”). ASU 2015-07 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. In addition, the update limits disclosures to investments for which the entity elected to measure the fair value using the practical expedient rather than all eligible investments. ASU 2015-07 was effective for the Plan on January 1, 2016 and as required, was adopted retrospectively. The Plan’s financial statements disclosures have been revised to reflect this adoption.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

3.
Tax Status

The Company has obtained a favorable determination from the IRS in a letter dated May 2, 2014 regarding the Plan’s qualified status. The Plan has been amended since the amendments considered under the determination letter. However, the Committee and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. On January 29, 2016, the Company submitted to the IRS an application for a new determination letter.

U.S. GAAP requires the plan administrator to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

4.    Investments and Fair Value Measurements

Investments

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Plan had investments in Colgate-Palmolive Company Common Stock, mutual funds, cash reserve funds, GICs and common/collective trust funds.

The GICs carry a crediting interest rate established at inception and reset periodically (typically monthly) to approximate the interest earnings of the underlying investments, subject to certain minimums.

Fair Value Measurements

The Plan uses available market information and other valuation methodologies in assessing the fair value of financial instruments. Judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value and, accordingly, changes in assumptions or the estimation methodologies may affect the fair value estimates.

Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified as follows:
 
 
Level 1:
Based upon quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2:
Based upon observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
 
Level 3:
Based upon unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
 
The fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The valuation methodologies used for Plan assets are as follows:
 
Colgate-Palmolive Company Common Stock: Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

Mutual funds: Valued at the NAV of units held by the Plan at year end based upon quoted market prices. The investments provide daily redemptions by the Plan with no advance notice requirements, and have redemption prices that are determined by the fund’s NAV per unit as of the redemption date.

Cash reserve funds: Valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. The funds have no restrictions from redemption.

Separately managed account fund: Valued based on the fair values of the underlying securities, which are valued using quoted prices on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

Common/Collective trust funds: Valued using the NAV per unit in each fund. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying investments owned by each trust, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding. The investments provide daily redemptions by the Plan with no advance notice requirements, and have redemption prices that are determined by the fund’s NAV per unit as of the redemption date.

6.
Reconciliation to Form 5500

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, benefit distributions that have been processed and approved for payment as of such date but not yet paid of $345 and $123, respectively, are not reflected in the financial statements. These amounts are reported as a liability on Form 5500.

7.
Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the value of investment securities may occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participant account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.

8.
