NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 27, 2025

A. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (hereinafter referred to as “generally accepted accounting principles" or "GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Stanley Black & Decker, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024, and subsequent related filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

In the first quarter of 2025, the Industrial segment was renamed “Engineered Fastening” as a result of a more focused portfolio following recent divestitures. The Engineered Fastening segment name change is to the name only and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or segment results.

On April 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its Infrastructure business. This divestiture did not qualify for discontinued operations and therefore, its results were included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income through the date of sale. The sale of the Infrastructure business is part of the Company's strategic commitment to simplify and streamline its portfolio to focus on the core Tools & Outdoor and Engineered Fastening businesses. Refer to Note Q, Divestitures, for further discussion of this transaction.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates. Certain amounts reported in previous years have been reclassified to conform to the 2025 presentation.

B. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED — In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new standard was issued to improve transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by providing information that helps investors better understand how an entity’s operations, tax risks, tax planning and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. The amendments in this update primarily relate to requiring greater disaggregated disclosure of information in the rate reconciliation, income taxes paid, income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), and income tax expense (benefit). The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The standard can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this update require disclosure and further disaggregation, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The required disclosures include the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas producing activities included in each relevant expense caption. Additionally, further disclosures are required for certain amounts already required to be disclosed under current GAAP, a qualitative description of amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and the total amount of selling expenses, and on an annual basis, the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

	Third Quarter		Year-to-Date
	2025	2024	2025	2024
Number of stock options	6,457	5,063	6,254	5,265

In March 2015, the Company entered into a forward share purchase contract with a financial institution counterparty for 3,645,510 shares of common stock. The contract obligates the Company to pay $350.0 million, plus an additional amount related to the forward component of the contract. In September 2025, the Company amended the forward share purchase contract and updated the final settlement date to June 2028, or earlier at the Company's option. The reduction of common shares outstanding was recorded at the inception of the forward share purchase contract in March 2015 and factored into the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding at that time.

D. ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE, NET


(Millions of Dollars)	September 27, 2025		December 28, 2024
Trade accounts receivable	$	1,219.4	$	950.4
Notes receivable	78.4		65.9
Other accounts receivable	197.1		222.1
Accounts and notes receivable	$	1,494.9	$	1,238.4
Allowance for credit losses	(75.3)		(84.7)
Accounts and notes receivable, net	$	1,419.6	$	1,153.7

Trade receivables are dispersed among a large number of retailers, distributors and industrial accounts in many countries. Adequate reserves have been established to cover anticipated credit losses.

The changes in the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 are as follows:


	Third Quarter				Year-to-Date
(Millions of Dollars)	2025		2024		2025		2024
Beginning balance	$	82.5	$	72.0	$	84.7	$	76.6
Charged to costs and expenses	1.3		7.1		18.5		9.7
Other, including recoveries and deductions (a)	(8.5)		(2.6)		(27.9)		(9.8)
Balance end of period	$	75.3	$	76.5	$	75.3	$	76.5

(a) Amounts represent charge-offs less recoveries, the impacts of foreign currency translation, divestitures and net transfers to/from other accounts.

The Company's payment terms are generally consistent with the industries in which their businesses operate and typically range from 30-90 days globally. The Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the period between transfer of the product and receipt of payment is less than one year. Any significant financing components for contracts greater than one year are included in revenue over time.

The Company has an accounts receivable sale program. According to the terms, the Company sells certain of its trade accounts receivables at fair value to a wholly owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary (“BRS"). The BRS, in turn, can sell such receivables to a third-party financial institution (“Purchaser”) for cash. The Purchaser’s maximum cash investment in the receivables at any time is $110.0 million. The purpose of the program is to provide liquidity to the Company. These transfers qualify as sales under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 860, Transfers and Servicing, and receivables are derecognized from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet when the BRS sells those receivables to the Purchaser. The Company has no retained interests in the transferred receivables, other than collection and administrative responsibilities. At September 27, 2025, the Company did not record a servicing asset or liability related to its retained responsibility based on its assessment of the servicing fee, market values for similar transactions and its cost of servicing the receivables sold.

At September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, net receivables of $76.6 million and $95.1 million, respectively, were derecognized. Proceeds from transfers of receivables to the Purchaser totaled $94.4 million and $270.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, respectively, and payments to the Purchaser totaled $127.8 million and $289.0 million, respectively. Proceeds from transfers of receivables to the Purchaser totaled $106.4 million and $270.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively, and payments to the Purchaser totaled $115.9 million and $296.8 million, respectively. The program resulted in a pre-tax loss of $1.4 million and $3.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, respectively. The program resulted in a pre-tax loss of $1.4 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively. All cash flows under the program are reported as a component of changes in working capital within operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows since all the cash from the Purchaser is received upon the initial sale of the receivable.

As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company's deferred revenue totaled $95.9 million and $101.6 million, respectively, of which $30.8 million and $31.3 million, respectively, was classified as current. Revenue recognized for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 that was previously deferred as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023 totaled $22.6 million and $21.6 million, respectively.

1Carrying values are net of unamortized discounts of $(4.2) million, deferred issuance costs of $(29.0) million, unamortized terminated swaps of $(19.0) million, and purchase accounting fair value adjustments of $5.4 million. Unamortized gain/(loss) associated with interest rate swaps are more fully discussed in Note H, Financial Instruments.

2In accordance with the terms of Note payable due 2060, the interest rate was reset as of March 2025, to 6.71%, from 4.00% as of the year ended December 28, 2024.

In August 2025, the Company redeemed its $350 million 6.272% notes at par prior to maturity. The redemption was funded through the issuance of commercial paper at a lower prevailing interest rate. The Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $0.3 million from the redemption related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

The Company has a $3.5 billion commercial paper program which includes Euro denominated borrowings in addition to U.S. Dollars. As of September 27, 2025, the Company had commercial paper borrowings outstanding of $1.4 billion, of which $552.4 million in Euro denominated commercial paper was designated as a net investment hedge. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had no commercial paper borrowings outstanding. Refer to Note H, Financial Instruments, for further discussion.

In June 2024, the Company amended and restated its existing five-year $2.5 billion committed credit facility with the concurrent execution of a new five-year $2.25 billion committed credit facility (the “5-Year Credit Agreement”). Borrowings under the 5-Year Credit Agreement may be made in U.S. Dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling. A sub-limit of an amount equal to the Euro equivalent of $800.0 million is designated for swing line advances. Borrowings bear interest at a floating rate plus an applicable margin dependent upon the denomination of the borrowing and specific terms of the 5-Year Credit Agreement. The Company must repay all advances under the 5-Year Credit Agreement by the earlier of June 28, 2029 or upon termination. The 5-Year Credit Agreement is designated to be a liquidity back-stop for the Company's $3.5 billion U.S. Dollar and Euro commercial paper program. In June 2025, the 5-Year Credit Agreement was amended to include the covenants listed below. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had not drawn on its five-year committed credit facility.

In June 2025, the Company terminated its 364-Day $1.25 billion committed credit facility ("the 2024 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement") dated June 2024. There were no outstanding borrowings under the 2024 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement upon termination and as of December 28, 2024. Contemporaneously, the Company entered into a new $1.25 billion syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement (the "2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement") which is a revolving credit loan. The borrowings under the 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement may be made in U.S. Dollars or Euros and bear interest at a floating rate plus an applicable margin dependent upon the denomination of the borrowing and pursuant to the terms of the 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement. The Company must repay all advances under the 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement by the earlier of June 22, 2026 or upon termination. The Company may, however, convert all advances outstanding upon termination into a term loan that shall be repaid in full no later than the first anniversary of the termination date provided that the Company, among other things, pays a fee to the administrative agent for the account of each lender. The 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement serves as part of the liquidity back-stop for the Company’s $3.5 billion U.S. Dollar and Euro commercial paper program. As of September 27, 2025, the Company had not drawn on its 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement.

The 5-Year Credit Agreement and the 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement, as described above, contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including but not limited to, maintenance of an interest coverage ratio. The interest coverage ratio tested for covenant compliance compares adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization to adjusted net Interest Expense ("Adjusted EBITDA"/"Adjusted Net Interest Expense"). The Company must maintain, for each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Company, an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.50 to 1.00, provided that the Company is only required to maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.50 to 1.00 for any four fiscal quarter period ending on or before the end of the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2026. For purposes of calculating the Company’s compliance with the interest coverage ratio, the Company is permitted to increase EBITDA by an amount equal to the Applicable Adjustment Addbacks (as defined in the 2025 Syndicated 364-Day Credit Agreement), provided that the sum of the Applicable Adjustment Addbacks incurred in any four consecutive fiscal quarter periods ending on or before the end of the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2026 shall not exceed $250,000,000 in the aggregate.

H. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, stock prices and commodity prices. As part of the Company’s risk management program, a variety of financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, currency swaps, purchased currency options, foreign exchange contracts and commodity contracts may be used to mitigate interest rate exposure, foreign currency exposure and commodity price exposure.

If the Company elects to do so and if the instrument meets the criteria specified in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, management designates its derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges or net investment hedges. Generally, commodity price exposures are not hedged with derivative financial instruments and instead are actively managed through customer pricing initiatives, procurement-driven cost reduction initiatives and other productivity improvement projects. Financial instruments are not utilized for speculative purposes.

A summary of the fair values of the Company’s derivatives recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024 is as follows:

The counterparties to all of the above mentioned financial instruments are major international financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk for net exchanges under these agreements, but not for the notional amounts. The credit risk is limited to the asset amounts noted above. The Company limits its exposure and concentration of risk by contracting with diverse financial institutions and does not anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties. The Company considers non-performance risk of its counterparties at each reporting period and adjusts the carrying value of these assets accordingly. The risk of default is considered remote. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, there were no assets that had been posted as collateral related to the above mentioned financial instruments.

During the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, cash flows related to derivatives, including those that are separately discussed below, resulted in net cash paid of $19.4 million and $11.9 million, respectively.

CASH FLOW HEDGES

There were after-tax mark-to-market losses of $44.7 million and $16.7 million as of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively, reported for cash flow hedge effectiveness in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. An after-tax loss of $10.5 million is expected to be reclassified to earnings as the hedged transactions occur or as amounts are amortized within the next twelve months. The ultimate amount recognized will vary based on fluctuations of the hedged currencies and interest rates through the maturity dates.

The tables below detail pre-tax amounts of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges in Accumulated other comprehensive loss during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024:

1 Inclusive of the gain/loss amortization on terminated derivative financial instruments.

After-tax losses of $1.8 million and $0.6 million were reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings (inclusive of the gain/loss amortization on terminated derivative instruments) during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively. After-tax gains of $1.8 million and after-tax losses of $1.4 million were reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings (inclusive of the gain/loss amortization on terminated derivative instruments) during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively.

Interest Rate Contracts: In prior years, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements in order to obtain the lowest cost source of funds within a targeted range of variable to fixed-debt proportions. These swap agreements, which were designated as cash flow hedges, subsequently matured or were terminated and the gain/loss was recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being amortized to interest expense. The cash flows stemming from the maturity or termination of the swaps were previously presented within financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company did not have any outstanding forward starting swaps designated as cash flow hedges.

Forward Contracts: Through its global businesses, the Company enters into transactions and makes investments denominated in multiple currencies that give rise to foreign currency risk. The Company and its subsidiaries regularly purchase inventory from subsidiaries with functional currencies different than their own, which creates currency-related volatility in the Company’s results of operations. The Company utilizes forward contracts to hedge these forecasted purchases and sales of inventory. Gains and losses reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss are recorded in Cost of sales as the hedged item affects earnings. There are no components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for these contracts. At September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the notional value of forward currency contracts outstanding is $746.7 million and $537.8 million, respectively, maturing on various dates through 2026 and 2025, respectively.

FAIR VALUE HEDGES

Interest Rate Risk: In an effort to optimize the mix of fixed versus floating rate debt in the Company’s capital structure, the Company enters into interest rate swaps. In prior years, the Company entered into interest rate swaps related to certain of its notes payable which were subsequently terminated. Amortization of the gain/loss on previously terminated swaps is reported in interest expense. Prior to termination, the changes in the fair value of the swaps and the offsetting changes in fair value related to the underlying notes were recognized in earnings. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company did not have any active fair value interest rate swaps.

A summary of the pre-tax effect of fair value hedge accounting on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 is as follows:

NET INVESTMENT HEDGES

The Company utilizes net investment hedges to offset the translation adjustment arising from re-measurement of its investment in the assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiaries. The total after-tax amounts in Accumulated other comprehensive loss were gains of $49.5 million and $78.4 million at September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.

As of September 27, 2025, the Company had cross currency swaps with notional values totaling $220.0 million maturing in 2026, hedging a portion of its Chinese Renminbi and Taiwan Dollar denominated investments. As of December 28, 2024, the Company did not have any net investment hedges with a notional value outstanding.

As of September 27, 2025, the Company had Euro denominated commercial paper with a value of $552.4 million, maturing in 2025, hedging a portion of the Company's Euro denominated net investments. As of December 28, 2024, the Company did not have any Euro denominated commercial paper.

Maturing foreign exchange contracts resulted in no cash received or paid for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024.

Gains and losses on net investment hedges remain in Accumulated other comprehensive loss until disposal of the underlying assets. Gains and losses representing components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings in Other, net on a straight-line basis over the term of the hedge. Gains and losses after a hedge has been de-designated are recorded directly to the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in Other, net.

UNDESIGNATED HEDGES

Foreign Exchange Contracts: Foreign exchange forward contracts are used to reduce risks arising from the change in fair value of certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (such as affiliate loans, payables and receivables). The objective is to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on operating results. The total notional amount of the forward contracts outstanding is $1.4 billion as of September 27, 2025 and $1.3 billion as of December 28, 2024, maturing on various dates through 2026 and 2025, respectively. The gain (loss) recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income from changes in the fair value related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 is as follows:

Refer to Note L, Restructuring Charges and Other, net for further information.

K. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines, establishes a consistent framework for measuring, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value. ASC 820 requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — 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 and significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 — Instruments that are valued using unobservable inputs.

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, stock prices and commodity prices. The Company holds various financial instruments to manage these risks. These financial instruments are carried at fair value and are included within the scope of ASC 820. The Company determines the fair value of these financial instruments through the use of matrix or model pricing, which utilizes observable inputs such as market interest and currency rates. When determining fair value for which Level 1 evidence does not exist, the Company considers various factors including the following: exchange or market price quotations of similar instruments, time value and volatility factors, the Company’s own credit rating and the credit rating of the counterparty.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each of the hierarchy levels:


(Millions of Dollars)	Total Carrying Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
September 27, 2025
Money market fund	$	17.1	$	17.1	$	—	$	—

Contingent consideration liability	$	167.4	$	—	$	—	$	167.4

The following table provides information about the Company's financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value:


	September 27, 2025				December 28, 2024
(Millions of Dollars)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Other investments	$	2.0	$	1.9	$	4.0	$	3.9
Long-term debt, including current portion	$	5,257.6	$	4,836.3	$	6,103.0	$	5,548.8

The money market fund and other investments related to the West Coast Loading Corporation ("WCLC") trust are considered Level 1 instruments within the fair value hierarchy. The deferred compensation plan investments are considered Level 1 instruments and are recorded at their quoted market price. The fair values of the derivative financial instruments in the table above are based on current settlement values.

The long-term debt instruments are considered Level 2 instruments and are measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s marginal borrowing rates. The differences between the carrying values and fair values of long-term debt are attributable to the stated interest rates differing from the Company's marginal borrowing rates. The fair values of the Company's variable rate short-term borrowings approximate their carrying values at September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024.

As part of the Craftsman® brand acquisition in March 2017, the Company recorded a contingent consideration liability representing the Company's obligation to make future payments to Transform Holdco, LLC, which operates Sears and Kmart retail locations, of between 2.5% and 3.5% on sales of Craftsman products in new Stanley Black & Decker channels through March 2032. During the nine months ended September 27, 2025, the Company paid $27.0 million for royalties owed. The Company will continue making future payments quarterly through the second quarter of 2032. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis taking into consideration future sales projections, forecasted payments to Transform Holdco, LLC, based on contractual royalty rates, and the related tax impacts. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability was $116.6 million and $167.4 million as of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively. Adjustments to the contingent consideration liability, with the exception of cash payments, are recorded in selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. A 100 basis point reduction in the discount rate would result in an increase to the liability of approximately $2.7 million as of September 27, 2025.

A single estimate of fair value results from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and relies heavily on estimates and assumptions. The Company's judgments used to determine the estimated contingent consideration liability discussed above, including estimated future sales projections, can materially impact the Company’s results of operations.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

During the third quarter of 2025, in conjunction with its annual long-term strategic planning, the Company updated its brand prioritization strategy to transition targeted product categories to its major brands, while leveraging certain of its specialty brands on more focused product categories and regions where those brands hold more meaningful market positions and value to end users. As a result of these strategic decisions, and in connection with the preparation of its financial statements for the quarter ended September 27, 2025, the Company tested its indefinite-lived trade names for impairment utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation model. The key assumptions used included discount rates, royalty rates, and perpetual growth rates applied to updated sales projections. The Company determined that the fair values of its indefinite-lived trade names exceeded their respective carrying amounts, with the exception of the Lenox, Troy-Bilt, and Irwin trade names. The Company recognized a pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge of $108.4 million related to these trade names in the third quarter of 2025. Subsequent to this impairment charge, the carrying value for the Lenox, Troy-Bilt, and Irwin trade names totaled $119.6 million. These trade names, which the Company intends to continue utilizing indefinitely in a more focused manner as described above, represented approximately 6% of 2024 net sales for the Tools & Outdoor segment. In addition, as part of its annual long-term strategic planning and ongoing portfolio assessment, the Company has made the strategic decision to exit most of its minority investments that are mainly associated with legacy corporate ventures, which resulted in a pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge of $43.9 million in the third quarter of 2025.

In the third quarter of 2024, the Company recognized a $41.0 million pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge related to the Lenox trade name. Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024 for further information.

The Company recorded impairment charges in the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023 to adjust the carrying amount of the long-lived assets of its Infrastructure business sold on April 1, 2024. Refer to Note Q, Divestitures, for further discussion.

The Company had no other significant non-recurring fair value measurements, nor any other financial assets or liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs, during the first nine months of 2025 or 2024.

L. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND OTHER, NET

A summary of the restructuring reserve activity from December 28, 2024 to September 27, 2025 is as follows:


(Millions of Dollars)	December 28, 2024		Net Additions		Usage		Currency		September 27, 2025
Severance and related costs	$	25.3	$	50.9	$	(44.2)	$	(1.1)	$	30.9
Facility closures and other	20.1		1.2		(16.2)		—		5.1
Total	$	45.4	$	52.1	$	(60.4)	$	(1.1)	$	36.0

For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, the Company recognized net restructuring charges of $32.1 million and $52.1 million, respectively, primarily driven by severance costs and related pension charges associated with reorganizations of the Company’s corporate and support functions and supply chain resources, as well as facility exit costs related to footprint actions associated with the supply chain transformation. The majority of the $36.0 million of reserves remaining as of September 27, 2025 is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months.

Segments: The $52.1 million of net restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 includes: $38.8 million in the Tools & Outdoor segment; $1.9 million in the Engineered Fastening segment; and $11.4 million in Corporate.

The $32.1 million of net restructuring charges for the three months ended September 27, 2025 includes: $29.5 million in the Tools & Outdoor segment; $0.3 million in the Engineered Fastening segment; and $2.3 million in Corporate.

Table of Contents

Other, net amounted to $72.2 million and $86.4 million for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, which included intangible asset amortization expense of $37.3 million and $40.8 million, respectively. Other, net amounted to $187.4 million and $392.9 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, which included intangible asset amortization expense of $112.0 million and $122.6 million, respectively. In addition, for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, Other, net included the Centredale environmental reserve adjustment of $142.3 million. Refer to Note O, Contingencies, for further discussion of the Centredale site.

Other, net is also comprised of several other items, none of which were individually significant during the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, primarily related to currency-related gains or losses, other environmental remediation expenses, deal costs and related consulting costs, certain pension gains or losses, and income related to providing transition services to previously divested businesses.

M. INCOME TAXES

In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate each quarterly reporting period. Tax expense or benefit in interim periods is computed by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to income or loss, and is adjusted for the tax effect of items of income and expense discretely reported in the period. The estimated annual effective tax rate used in determining income taxes on a year-to-date basis may change in subsequent interim periods. When changes to the estimated annual effective tax rate occur, the prior interim year-to-date tax expense or tax benefit is adjusted to reflect the revised estimated annual effective tax rate. Any adjustment is recorded in the period in which the change occurs.

For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $15.8 million and $53.8 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (44.4)% and (28.3)%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the remeasurement of uncertain tax positions, partially offset by non-deductible expenses.

For the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $1.6 million and income tax expense of $24.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (1.8)% and 21.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 28, 2024 differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the recognition of previously unrecognized foreign deferred tax assets, remeasurement of uncertain tax positions, tax credits, and state income taxes, partially offset by non-deductible expenses and U.S. tax on foreign earnings. For the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the primary drivers are consistent with those discussed above, which in aggregate result in an effective tax rate equivalent to the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21%.

The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and the impact on income tax expense, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company's unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. However, based on the uncertainties associated with finalizing audits with the relevant tax authorities including formal legal proceedings, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the impact of any such change.

N. BUSINESS SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

The Company’s operations are classified into two reportable business segments: Tools & Outdoor and Engineered Fastening. In the first quarter of 2025, the Industrial segment was renamed “Engineered Fastening” as a result of a more focused portfolio following recent divestitures. The Engineered Fastening segment name change is to the name only and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or segment results.

The Tools & Outdoor segment is comprised of the Power Tools Group ("PTG"), Hand Tools, Accessories & Storage ("HTAS") and Outdoor Power Equipment ("Outdoor") product lines. The PTG product line includes both professional and consumer products. Professional products, primarily under the DEWALT® brand, include professional grade corded and cordless electric power tools and equipment including drills, impact wrenches and drivers, grinders, saws, routers, sanders, and concrete prep and placement tools as well as pneumatic tools and fasteners including nail guns, nails, staplers and staples, and concrete and masonry anchors. DIY and tradesperson focused products include corded and cordless electric power tools sold primarily under the CRAFTSMAN® and STANLEY® brands, and consumer home products such as household power tools, hand-held vacuums, and small appliances primarily under the BLACK+DECKER® brand. The HTAS product line sells hand tools, power tool accessories and storage products primarily under the DEWALT®, CRAFTSMAN®, and STANLEY® brands. Hand tools include measuring, leveling and layout tools, planes, hammers, demolition tools, clamps, vises, knives, saws, chisels, material handling, and industrial and automotive tools. Power tool accessories include drill bits, screwdriver bits, router bits, abrasives, saw blades and threading products. Storage products include tool boxes, sawhorses, cabinets and engineered storage solution

products. The Outdoor product line primarily sells corded and cordless electric lawn and garden products, including hedge trimmers, string trimmers, lawn mowers, pressure washers and related accessories, and gas powered lawn and garden products, including lawn tractors, zero turn ride on mowers, walk behind mowers, snow blowers, residential robotic mowers, hand-held outdoor power equipment, garden tools, and parts and accessories to professionals and consumers under the DEWALT®, CRAFTSMAN®, CUB CADET®, BLACK+DECKER®, and HUSTLER® brand names.

The Engineered Fastening segment is comprised of the Engineered Fastening business and included the Infrastructure business prior to its sale in April 2024. The Engineered Fastening business primarily sells highly engineered components such as fasteners, fittings and various engineered products, which are designed for specific application across multiple verticals. The product lines include externally threaded fasteners, blind rivets and tools, blind inserts and tools, drawn arc weld studs and systems, engineered plastic and mechanical fasteners, self-piercing riveting systems, precision nut running systems, micro fasteners, high-strength structural fasteners, axel swage, latches, heat shields, pins, and couplings.

The Company utilizes segment profit, which is defined as net sales minus cost of sales and SG&A inclusive of the provision for credit losses (aside from corporate overhead expense), and segment profit as a percentage of net sales to assess the profitability of each segment. Transactions between segments are not material. Segment assets primarily include cash, accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use lease assets and intangible assets. Net sales and long-lived assets are attributed to the geographic regions based on the geographic locations of the end customer and the Company subsidiary, respectively.

The corporate overhead element of SG&A, which is not allocated to the business segments for purposes of determining segment profit, consists of the costs associated with the executive management team and expenses related to centralized functions that benefit the entire Company but are not directly attributable to the business segments, such as legal and corporate finance functions, as well as expenses for the world headquarters facility.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment profit for each segment as part of the Company's annual operating plan and forecasting process. The CODM monitors actual segment profit results relative to operating plan and forecast to assess the performance of the business and allocate resources.

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time from the sale of tangible products or over time depending on when the performance obligation is satisfied. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, the majority of the Company’s revenue was recognized at the time of sale. The percent of total segment revenue recognized over time for the Engineered Fastening segment for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 was approximately 1% and 2%, respectively. The percent of total segment revenue recognized over time for the Engineered Fastening segment for both the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 was approximately 3%.

The Engineered Fastening segment included the Infrastructure business prior to its sale on April 1, 2024. The Infrastructure business had $92.6 million of sales for the three months ended March 30, 2024.

O. CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to environmental issues, employment, product liability, workers’ compensation claims and other matters. The Company periodically reviews the status of these proceedings with both inside and outside counsel, as well as an actuary for risk insurance. Management believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on operations or financial condition taken as a whole.

Government Investigation

As previously disclosed, on January 19, 2024, the Company was notified by the Compliance and Field Operations Division (the “Division”) of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) that the Division intended to recommend the imposition of a civil penalty of approximately $32 million for alleged untimely reporting in relation to certain utility bars and miter saws that were subject to voluntary recalls in September 2019 and March 2022, respectively. The Company believes there are defenses to the Division’s claims, and has presented its defenses in a meeting with the Division on February 29, 2024 and in a written submission dated March 29, 2024. On April 1, 2024, the Division informed the Company's counsel that the Division intended to recommend that the CPSC refer the matter to the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ"). On May 1, 2024, the Company was informed that the CPSC voted to refer the matter to the DOJ. In December 2024, the CPSC requested that the Company reproduce documents previously provided to the CPSC following changes to the agency’s electronic file sharing system. The Company has reproduced the requested documents to the CPSC. Counsel for the Company and DOJ have met to discuss the parties' positions. The Company does not expect that any sum it may have to pay in connection with this matter, including any reserved amount, will have a materially adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company is committed to upholding the highest standards of corporate governance and is continuously focused on ensuring the effectiveness of its policies, procedures, and controls.

Class Action Litigation

As previously disclosed, on March 24, 2023, a putative class action lawsuit titled Naresh Vissa Rammohan v. Stanley Black & Decker, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-00369-KAD (the “Rammohan Class Action”), was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut against the Company and certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors (together, "Defendants"). The complaint was filed on behalf of a purported class consisting of all purchasers of Stanley Black & Decker common stock between October 28, 2021 and July 28, 2022, inclusive. The complaint asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 based on allegedly false and misleading statements related to consumer demand for the Company’s products amid changing COVID-19 trends and macroeconomic conditions. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and an award of costs and expenses. On October 13, 2023, Lead Plaintiff General Retirement System of the City of Detroit filed an Amended Complaint that asserts the same claims and seeks the same forms of relief as the original complaint. On December 14, 2023, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in its entirety. Briefing on that motion concluded on April 5, 2024. Following the recent decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in City of Hialeah Employees’ Retirement System v. Peloton Interactive, Inc., No. 24-2803 (2d Cir. 2025), Lead Plaintiff informed Defendants that it wished to amend its complaint. Pursuant to a stipulation between the parties, so ordered by the District Court on September 30, 2025, Lead Plaintiff provided Defendants with a proposed second amended complaint on October 30, 2025. By November 13, 2025, Defendants will advise the Court and Plaintiff whether they intend to consent to or oppose Plaintiff’s filing of its proposed second amended complaint. In the event that either consent is given or leave is granted for the filing of a second amended complaint, Defendants would file a renewed motion to dismiss by December 18, 2025. In the meantime, the Court denied Defendants’ initial motion to dismiss without prejudice to renewal. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action in all respects. Given the early stage of this litigation, at this time, the Company is not in a position to assess the likelihood of any potential loss or adverse effect on its financial condition or to estimate the amount or range of potential losses, if any, from this action.

Derivative Actions

As previously disclosed, on August 2, 2023 and September 20, 2023, derivative complaints were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, titled Callahan v. Allan, et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-01028-OAW (the “Callahan Derivative Action”) and Applebaum v. Allan, et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-01234-OAW (the “Applebaum Derivative Action”), respectively, by putative stockholders against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company premised on the same allegations as the Rammohan Class Action. The Callahan and Applebaum Derivative Actions were consolidated by Court order on November 6, 2023, and defendants’ responses to both complaints have been stayed pending the disposition of any motions to dismiss in the Rammohan Class Action. The individual defendants intend to vigorously defend the Callahan and Applebaum Derivative Actions in all respects. However, given the early stage of this litigation, at this time, the Company is not in a position to assess the likelihood of any potential loss or adverse effect on its financial condition or to estimate the amount or range of potential losses, if any, from these actions.

Table of Contents

As previously disclosed, on October 19, 2023, a derivative complaint was filed in Connecticut Superior Court, titled Vladimir Gusinsky Revocable Trust v. Allan, et al., Docket Number HHBCV236082260S, by a putative stockholder against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company. Plaintiff seeks to recover for alleged breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment under Connecticut state law premised on the same allegations as the Rammohan Class Action. By Court order on November 11, 2023, the Connecticut Superior Court granted the parties’ motion to stay defendants’ response to the complaint pending the disposition of any motions to dismiss in the Rammohan Class Action. The individual defendants intend to vigorously defend this action in all respects. However, given the early stage of this litigation, at this time, the Company is not in a position to assess the likelihood of any potential loss or adverse effect on its financial condition or to estimate the amount or range of potential losses, if any, from this action.

Environmental

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to administrative proceedings and litigation, before federal and state regulatory agencies, relating to environmental remediation with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous substances into the environment, generally at current and former manufacturing facilities. In addition, some of these claims assert that the Company is responsible for damages and liability, for remedial investigation and clean-up costs, with respect to sites that have never been owned or operated by the Company, but the Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party ("PRP").

In connection with the 2010 merger with Black & Decker, the Company assumed certain commitments and contingent liabilities. Black & Decker is a party to litigation and administrative proceedings with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous substances into the environment at current and former manufacturing facilities and has also been named as a PRP in certain administrative proceedings.

The Company, along with many other companies, has been named as a PRP in numerous administrative proceedings for the remediation of various waste sites, including 23 active Superfund sites. Current laws potentially impose joint and several liabilities upon each PRP. In assessing its potential liability at these sites, the Company has considered the following: whether responsibility is being disputed, the terms of existing agreements, experience at similar sites, and the Company’s volumetric contribution at these sites.

The Company’s policy is to accrue environmental investigatory and remediation costs for identified sites when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If no amount in the range of probable loss is considered most likely, the minimum loss in the range is accrued. The amount of liability recorded is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual site and includes such factors as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, and prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites. The liabilities recorded do not take into account any claims for recoveries from insurance or third parties. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, the amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. As of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the Company had reserves of $264.8 million and $275.4 million, respectively, for remediation activities associated with Company-owned properties, as well as for Superfund sites, for losses that are probable and estimable. Of the September 27, 2025 amount, $70.6 million is classified as current within Accrued expenses and $194.2 million as long-term within Other liabilities which is expected to be paid over the estimated remediation period. As of September 27, 2025, the Company's net cash obligations, including the WCLC assets discussed below, is $247.4 million. As of September 27, 2025, the range of environmental remediation costs that is reasonably possible is $182.9 million to $396.4 million which is subject to change in the near term. The Company may be liable for environmental remediation of sites it no longer owns. Liabilities have been recorded on those sites in accordance with the Company's policy.

West Cost Loading Corporation

As of September 27, 2025, the Company has recorded $17.4 million in Other assets related to funding received by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and placed in a trust in accordance with the final settlement with the EPA, embodied in a Consent Decree approved by the United States District Court for the Central District of California on July 3, 2013. Per the Consent Decree, Emhart Industries, Inc. (a dissolved and liquidated former indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of The Black & Decker Corporation) (“Emhart”) has agreed to be responsible for an interim remedy at a site located in Rialto, California and formerly operated by WCLC, a defunct company for which Emhart was alleged to be liable as a successor. The remedy will be funded by (i) the amounts received from the EPA as gathered from multiple parties, and, to the extent necessary, (ii) Emhart's affiliate. The interim remedy required the construction of a water treatment facility and the treatment of ground water at or around the site for a period of approximately 30 years or more. The construction of the water treatment facility was completed in September 2023, and the treatment of ground water is ongoing. As of September 27, 2025, the Company's net cash obligation associated with these remediation activities, including WCLC assets, is $6.0 million.

Centredale Site

Table of Contents

On April 8, 2019, the United States District Court approved a Consent Decree documenting the terms of a settlement between the Company and the United States for reimbursement of EPA's past costs and remediation of environmental contamination found at the Centredale Manor Restoration Project Superfund Site ("Centredale site"), located in North Providence, Rhode Island. Black & Decker and Emhart are liable for site clean-up costs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") as successors to the liability of Metro-Atlantic, Inc., a former operator at the Centredale site. The Company is complying with the terms of the settlement and has fully reimbursed the EPA for its past costs. Remediation work at the Centredale site remains ongoing. Technical and regulatory issues have arisen in connection with the disposal methods selected and described in the statement of work for contaminated Centredale site soils and sediment. Emhart’s contractor is working with the EPA and the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (“RIDEM”) to develop alternatives. Based on these evolving technical and regulatory discussions, in the second quarter of 2024, the EPA and RIDEM began implementing regulatory changes that suggest that offsite landfill disposal now represents the most probable remedial alternative for the disposal of contaminated Centredale site soils and sediments. Significant open technical and regulatory issues relating to the implementation of this disposal alternative remain, including final EPA and RIDEM approvals, and further developments may result in additional or different remedial actions. Emhart’s contractor’s assessment of the offsite landfill disposal alternative involves soil and sediment volume estimates that could also change or increase as additional design investigations are performed at the site, which may further impact the remediation process. Emhart has recently entered into a cooperative agreement with the Federal and State Natural Resource Trustees to collectively conduct an assessment of what, if any, Natural Resource Damages may be associated with the contamination at the Centredale Site. Litigation continues in the District Court concerning Phase 3 of the case, which is addressing the potential allocation of liability to other PRPs who may have contributed to contamination of the Centredale site with dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls and other contaminants of concern. Emhart proceeded to trial in a six-week bench trial in Phase 3 on the issue of CERCLA liability against 4 PRPs in October 2024. The Court issued a decision on September 8, 2025, finding all four PRPs liable for contamination at the Site. The litigation will now move to a final allocation phase, Phase 3(B), which will determine each PRP’s equitable share of responsibility for the Centredale site investigation, cleanup costs, and other damages caused by the contamination. As of September 27, 2025, the Company has reserved $157.7 million for this site.

Lower Passaic River

The Company, along with over 100 other parties, has been identified as a PRP at Operable Units (“OUs”) 2 and 4 of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site (the “Site”) pursuant to CERCLA. OU-4 encompasses the 17-mile Lower Passaic River (“LPR”) and OU-2 (which is subsumed within OU-4) consists of the lower 8.3 miles of the LPR. On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued a Record of Decision ("ROD") selecting the remedy for the lower 8.3 miles of the River, which according to the EPA, will cost approximately $1.4 billion. On September 28, 2021, the EPA issued an Interim Remedy ROD for the upper 9 miles of the LPR that the EPA estimates will cost $441 million (net present value).

In March 2017, the EPA announced a plan to commence an allocation process to identify PRPs that may be eligible for a cash out settlement for the remediation costs. As a result of the allocation process, the EPA and certain parties (including the Company) reached an agreement for a cash-out settlement for remediation of the entire 17-mile LPR. On December 16, 2022, the United States lodged a Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in United States v. Alden Leeds, Inc. et al. (No. 2:22-cv-07326) that addressed the liability of 85 parties (including the Company) for an aggregate amount of $150 million. On December 18, 2024, the Court granted the United States’ motion to enter the Consent Decree. The Court’s order entering the Consent Decree has been appealed by two parties (Occidental Chemical Company (“OCC”) and Nokia of America) which were not offered to participate in the settlement. While briefing is ongoing, OCC filed documents with the Court indicating that OCC is now known as Environmental Resource Holdings LCC due to internal reorganization. The Company’s defense group is seeking information to determine whether Environmental Resource Holdings LLC is the proper party to the appeal and to confirm that the corporate successor has the financial resources to satisfy OCC’s liabilities at the LPR. The Company has paid its share of the settlement amount, which currently is held in escrow by the EPA pending the outcome of the appeal.

On June 30, 2018, OCC filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against over 100 companies, including the Company, seeking CERCLA cost recovery or contribution for past costs relating to various investigations and cleanups OCC has conducted or is conducting in connection with OU-2 and OU-4 and seeking a declaratory judgment to hold the defendants liable for their proper shares of future response costs for OCC's ongoing activities in connection with the Site, which would include OCC’s Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study in Newark Bay (OU-3 of the Site). The litigation was stayed while the Court considered the Consent Decree and during the appeal discussed above.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies have been conducting a natural resources damage assessment of the LPR. The results of this assessment may be used in the future to support a claim by the federal agencies for natural resource damages against the Company and other PRPs.

Table of Contents

At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate its liability related to the litigation, remediation efforts and natural resource damages as discussed above, as the OCC litigation is pending, the Court’s opinion granting the United States’ motion to enter the Consent Decree has been appealed, and the natural resource damage assessment is ongoing.

Kerr McGee

Per the terms of a Final Order and Judgment approved by the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida on January 22, 1991, Emhart is responsible for a percentage of remedial costs arising out of the Kerr McGee Chemical Corporation Superfund Site located in Jacksonville, Florida. On March 15, 2017, the Company received formal notification from the EPA that the EPA had issued a ROD selecting the preferred alternative identified in the Proposed Cleanup Plan. The Multistate Trust managing the remediation provides quarterly projections for the remediation costs for work to be performed, and the Company adjusts the reserve for its percentage share of such costs accordingly. As of September 27, 2025, the Company has reserved $21.8 million for this site.

The amounts recorded for the aforementioned identified contingent liabilities are based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures. Subject to the imprecision in estimating future contingent liability costs, the Company does not expect that any sum it may have to pay in connection with these environmental matters in excess of the amounts recorded will have a materially adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

P. COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES

COMMITMENTS — The Company has numerous assets, predominantly real estate, vehicles and equipment, under various lease arrangements. The following is a summary of the Company's right-of-use assets and lease liabilities:

Weighted-average remaining term	6 years	6 years

Right-of-use assets are included within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, while lease liabilities are included within Accrued expenses and Other liabilities, as appropriate. The Company determines its incremental borrowing rate based on interest rates from its debt issuances, taking into consideration adjustments for collateral, lease terms and foreign currency.

The Company has arrangements with third-party financial institutions that offer voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") programs. These arrangements enable certain of the Company’s suppliers, at the supplier’s sole discretion, to sell receivables due from the Company to the financial institutions on terms directly negotiated with the financial institutions. The Company negotiates commercial terms with its suppliers, including prices, quantities, and payment terms, regardless of suppliers’ decisions to finance the receivables due from the Company under these SCF programs. The Company has no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to participate in these SCF programs, and no direct financial relationship with the financial institutions, as it relates to these SCF programs. The amounts due to the financial institutions for suppliers that voluntarily participate in these SCF programs were presented within Accounts payable on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $397.1 million and $483.6 million as of September 27, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.

As of September 27, 2025, the Company had unrecognized commitments that require the future purchase of goods or services (unconditional purchase obligations) to provide it with access to products and services at competitive prices. These obligations consist of supplier agreements with long-term minimum material purchase requirements and freight forwarding arrangements with minimum quantity commitments. As of September 27, 2025, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of $152.3 million, consisting of $21.0 million in 2025, $59.9 million in 2026 and $71.4 million in 2027.

The lease guarantees are for an amount up to $45.5 million while the fair value of the underlying assets is estimated at $57.9 million. The related assets would be available to satisfy the guarantee obligations. In May 2025, a distribution center that was previously under a variable rate lease contract was sold. The proceeds from the sale were used to fully satisfy the Company's guarantee.

The Company has issued $176.7 million in standby letters of credit that guarantee future payments which may be required under certain insurance programs and in relation to certain environmental remediation activities described more fully in Note O, Contingencies.

The Company provides various limited and full recourse guarantees to financial institutions that provide financing to U.S. and Canadian Mac Tool distributors and franchisees for their initial purchase of the inventory and trucks necessary to function as a distributor and franchisee. In addition, the Company provides limited and full recourse guarantees to financial institutions that extend credit to certain end retail customers of its U.S. Mac Tool distributors and franchisees. The gross amount guaranteed in these arrangements is $103.5 million and the $18.5 million carrying value of the guarantees issued is recorded in Other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company provides warranties on certain products across its businesses. The types of product warranties offered generally range from one year to limited lifetime. There are also certain products with no warranty. Further, the Company sometimes incurs discretionary costs to service its products in connection with product performance issues. Historical warranty and service claim experience forms the basis for warranty obligations recognized. Adjustments are recorded to the warranty liability as new information becomes available.

The changes in the carrying amount of product warranties for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024 are as follows:


(Millions of Dollars)	2025		2024

Q. DIVESTITURES

Infrastructure business

On April 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its Infrastructure business to Epiroc AB for $760 million. The Company received proceeds of $728.5 million at closing, net of customary adjustments and costs. This divestiture did not qualify for discontinued operations and therefore, its results were included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income through the date of sale. The pre-tax income for this business was $9.6 million for the three months ended March 30, 2024.

In addition, the Company recognized a pre-tax asset impairment charge of $25.5 million and $150.8 million in the first quarter of 2024 and fourth quarter of 2023, respectively, to adjust the carrying amount of the long-lived assets of the Infrastructure business to its estimated fair value less the costs to sell.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Strategy

The Company is a global provider of hand tools, power tools, outdoor products and related accessories, as well as a leading provider of engineered fastening solutions. The Company continues to execute its long-term business strategy focused on organic growth in excess of the market and industry, geographic and customer diversification to foster sustainable revenue, earnings and cash flow growth. In recent years, the Company has re-shaped its portfolio to focus on its leading positions in the tools & outdoor and engineered fastening markets. Leveraging the benefits of a more focused portfolio, the Company initiated a business transformation in mid-2022 that includes reinvestment for faster growth as well as a $2.0 billion Global Cost Reduction Program through 2025. The Company’s primary areas of multi-year strategic focus remain unchanged as follows:

•Advancing innovation, electrification and global market penetration to achieve mid-single digit organic revenue growth (2 to 3 times the market);

•Streamlining and simplifying the organization, and investing in initiatives that more directly impact the Company's customers and end users;

•Returning adjusted gross margins to historical 35%+ levels by accelerating the operations and supply chain transformation to improve fill rates and better match inventory with customer demand; and

•Prioritizing cash flow generation and inventory optimization.

In terms of capital allocation, the Company remains committed, over time, to returning excess capital to shareholders through a strong and growing dividend as well as a preference toward opportunistically repurchasing shares. In the near term, the Company intends to direct any capital in excess of the quarterly dividend on its common stock toward debt reduction and internal growth investments.

Repurchases Of Securities Other Than Common Stock

In April 2021, the Board of Directors approved repurchases by the Company of its outstanding securities, other than its common stock, up to an aggregate amount of $3.0 billion (the “April 2021 Authorization”). Repurchases of $1.1 billion were made under the April 2021 Authorization, and as of September 27, 2025, $1.9 billion remained available for future repurchases under the April 2021 Authorization. In October 2025, the Board of Directors terminated the April 2021 Authorization including any amounts remaining available for repurchase thereunder, and approved repurchases by the Company of its outstanding securities, other than its common stock, up to an aggregate amount of $3.0 billion. No repurchases have been executed pursuant to this authorization to date.

Divestitures

On April 1, 2024, the Company sold its Infrastructure business comprised of the attachment and handheld hydraulic tools business to Epiroc AB for net proceeds of $728.5 million. The Company used the net proceeds to reduce debt in the second quarter of 2024. Refer to Note Q, Divestitures, for further discussion.

Global Cost Reduction Program

In mid-2022, the Company launched a program comprised of a series of initiatives designed to generate cost savings by resizing the organization and reducing inventory with the ultimate objective of driving long-term growth, improving profitability and generating strong cash flow. These initiatives are expected to optimize the cost base as well as provide a platform to fund investments to accelerate growth in the core businesses. The program consists of a selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") planned pre-tax run-rate cost savings of $500 million and a supply chain transformation expected to deliver $1.5

Table of Contents

billion of pre-tax run-rate cost savings by the end of 2025 and facilitate the achievement of projected 35%+ adjusted gross margins.

The SG&A cost savings were generated by simplifying the corporate structure, optimizing organizational spans and layers and reducing indirect spend. These savings will help fund $300 million to $500 million of innovation and commercial investments through 2025 designed to accelerate organic growth.

The $1.5 billion of pre-tax run-rate cost savings from the supply chain transformation has been, and continues to be, driven by the following value streams:

•Material Productivity: Implementing capabilities to source in a more efficient and integrated manner across all of the Company’s businesses and leveraging contract manufacturing;

•Operational Excellence: Redesigning in-plant operations following footprint rationalization to deliver incremental efficiencies, simplified organizational design and inventory optimization leveraging a standard operating model and LEAN principles;

•Footprint Rationalization: Transforming the Company’s manufacturing and distribution network from a decentralized and inefficient system of sites built through years of acquisitions to a strategically focused supply chain, inclusive of site closures, transformations of existing sites into manufacturing centers of excellence and re-configuration of the distribution network; and

•Complexity Reduction: Reducing complexity through platforming products and implementing initiatives to drive a SKU reduction.

During the first nine months of 2025 and since inception of the program, the Company has generated approximately $400 million and $1.9 billion, respectively, of pre-tax run-rate savings, driven by lower headcount, indirect spend reductions and the supply chain transformation. These savings are comprised of supply chain efficiency benefits, which support gross margin improvements as the benefits turn through inventory, and SG&A savings. The Company believes that it is on track to grow to approximately $2 billion of pre-tax run-rate savings by year-end 2025.

The cash investment required to achieve the estimated $1.5 billion of pre-tax run-rate supply chain cost savings is expected to be approximately $0.6 billion. Of the total estimated cash investment, approximately 30% is expected to be capital expenditures. Through 2024, the Company has made approximately $0.5 billion of total cash investments. The Company intends to continue prioritizing capital expenditures consistent with its existing approach and expects total capital expenditures, inclusive of the supply chain transformation, to approximate $0.3 billion in 2025 and 2.5% to 3.0% of net sales annually over the long term.

The charges associated with the ongoing execution of the supply chain transformation are reflected in the Non-GAAP adjustments detailed below in "Results From Operations" and the full year estimate of Non-GAAP adjustments detailed below in "2025 Planning Assumptions." In addition, although the program is expected to be completed by the end of 2025, the Company expects to incur additional charges and make cash investments beyond 2025 relating to footprint actions to support the ongoing network transformation and reposition its supply chain, as necessary.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain Items Impacting Earnings and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided a discussion of its results both inclusive and exclusive of certain gains and charges. The results and measures, including gross profit, SG&A, Other, net, Income taxes, segment profit, and corporate overhead, on a basis excluding certain gains and charges, free cash flow, organic revenue and organic growth are Non-GAAP financial measures. These Non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures below. The Company considers the use of Non-GAAP financial measures relevant to aid analysis and understanding of the Company’s results and business trends aside from the material impact of certain gains and charges and ensures appropriate comparability to operating results of prior periods. Supplemental Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

The Company provides expectations for the non-GAAP financial measures of full-year 2025 adjusted EPS, presented on a basis excluding certain gains and charges, as well as 2025 free cash flow. Forecasted full-year 2025 adjusted EPS is reconciled to forecasted full-year 2025 GAAP EPS under the section entitled "2025 Planning Assumptions" below. Consistent with past methodology, forecasted full-year 2025 GAAP EPS excludes the impacts of potential acquisitions and divestitures, potential future regulatory changes or strategic shifts that could impact the Company's contingent liabilities or intangible assets, respectively, potential future cost actions in response to external factors that have not yet occurred, and any other items not specifically referenced under “2025 Planning Assumptions.” A reconciliation of forecasted 2025 free cash flow to its most directly comparable GAAP estimate is not available without unreasonable effort due to high variability and difficulty in predicting items that impact cash flow from operations, which could be material to the Company’s results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes such a reconciliation would also imply a degree of precision that is inappropriate for this forward-looking measure.

The Company also provides multi-year strategic goals for the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted gross margin, presented on a basis excluding certain gains and charges, as well as organic revenue growth. A reconciliation for these non-GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including the high variability and low visibility with respect to certain gains or charges that would generally be excluded from non-GAAP financial measures and which could be material to the Company’s results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future multi-year periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. The Company believes such a reconciliation would also imply a degree of precision that is inappropriate for these forward-looking measures.

The Company’s operating results at the consolidated level as discussed below include and exclude certain gains and charges impacting gross profit, SG&A, Other, net, and Income taxes. The Company’s business segment results as discussed below include and exclude certain gains and charges impacting gross profit and SG&A. Corporate overhead as discussed below includes and excludes certain gains and charges. These amounts for the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 and 2024 are as follows:

1			Footprint Rationalization costs primarily relate to site transformation and re-configuration costs of $26.7 million and $31.3 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively, as well as accelerated depreciation of manufacturing and distribution center equipment of $45.2 million in 2024. Facility exit costs related to site closures are reported in Restructuring charges.
2			In June 2025, the Company implemented a voluntary retirement program (“VRP”) to right-size the Company’s corporate and support functions to align with a more focused portfolio following recent divestitures and more streamlined operations as part of the supply chain transformation. The costs associated with the VRP relate to separation benefits provided to eligible employees who voluntarily retired from the Company.
3			Complexity Reduction & Operational Excellence costs in 2025 primarily relate to third-party consulting fees to provide expertise in identifying business model changes and quantifying related cost savings opportunities within the Company’s Engineered Fastening business, developing a detailed program and related governance, and assisting the Company with the implementation of actions necessary to achieve the identified objectives.
4			The $152.1 million pre-tax environmental charges in 2024 related primarily to a reserve adjustment for the non-active Centredale Superfund site as a result of regulatory changes and revisions to remediation alternatives.
5			Includes an $8.1 million gain on sale of a distribution center in the second quarter of 2025 as part of the supply chain transformation.
6			The asset impairment charges in 2025 were primarily driven by updates to the Company's brand prioritization strategy impacting the Lenox, Troy-Bilt, and Irwin trade names and the write down of certain minority investments pertaining to legacy corporate ventures. The asset impairment charges in 2024 were primarily related to the Lenox trade name and the Infrastructure business.

Below is a summary of the Company’s operating results at the consolidated level, followed by an overview of business segment performance. Organic growth is utilized to describe the Company's results excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions during their initial 12 months of ownership, divestitures, and transfers of product lines between segments.

Consolidated Results

Net Sales: Net sales were $3.756 billion in the third quarter of 2025 in line with prior year sales of $3.751 billion in the third quarter of 2024, as a 5% increase in price and a 1% increase from foreign currency were offset by a 6% decrease in volume. Tools & Outdoor net sales were in line with the third quarter of 2024 as a 5% increase in price, a 1% increase from foreign currency, and a 1% increase from a product line transfer from Engineered Fastening were offset by a 7% decrease in volume. Engineered Fastening net sales increased 3% compared to the third quarter of 2024 as a 4% increase in volume, a 1% increase in price, and a 1% increase from foreign currency were partially offset by a 3% decrease from a product line transfer to Tools & Outdoor.

Net sales were $11.446 billion in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $11.645 billion in the first nine months of 2024, representing a decrease of 2% as a 2% increase in price was more than offset by a 3% decrease in volume and a 1% decrease from the Infrastructure divestiture. Tools & Outdoor net sales decreased 1% compared to the first nine months of 2024 as a 2% increase in price was more than offset by a 3% decrease in volume. Engineered Fastening net sales decreased 8% compared to the first nine months of 2024 as a 1% increase in price was more than offset by a 6% decrease from the Infrastructure divestiture and a 3% decrease from a product line transfer to Tools & Outdoor.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit: The Company reported cost of sales of $2.577 billion in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $2.631 billion in the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year change in cost of sales was primarily driven by lower volume and the supply chain transformation efficiencies, partially offset by the impact from tariffs and inflation. Gross profit, defined as sales less cost of sales, was $1.179 billion, or 31.4% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $1.121 billion, or 29.9% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP adjustments, which increased cost of sales and reduced gross profit, were $8.0 million, or 0.2% of net sales, for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and $24.8 million, or 0.6% of net sales, for the three months ended September 28, 2024. Excluding these adjustments, gross profit was 31.6% of net sales, for the three months ended September 27, 2025, compared to 30.5% of net sales, for the three months ended September 28, 2024. The year-over-year change in gross profit as a percent of sales and adjusted gross profit as a percent of sales was primarily due to benefits from pricing strategies and supply chain transformation efficiencies, partially offset by tariffs, lower volume and inflation.

The Company reported cost of sales of $8.079 billion in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $8.275 billion in the first nine months of 2024. The year-over-year change in cost of sales was primarily driven by the same factors discussed above that impacted the third quarter of 2025. Gross profit, defined as sales less cost of sales, was $3.366 billion, or 29.4% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2025 compared to $3.370 billion, or 28.9% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2024. Non-GAAP adjustments, which increased cost of sales and reduced gross profit, were $44.7 million, or 0.4% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and $72.7 million, or 0.7% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 28, 2024. Excluding these adjustments, gross profit was 29.8% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 27, 2025, compared to 29.6% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 28, 2024. The year-over-year change in gross profit as a percent of sales and adjusted gross profit as a percent of sales was primarily driven by the same factors discussed above that impacted the third quarter of 2025.

Selling, general and administrative: SG&A, inclusive of the provision for credit losses, was $791.0 million, or 21.1% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $797.1 million, or 21.2% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024. Within SG&A, Non-GAAP adjustments totaled $4.1 million, or 0.1% of net sales, for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and $15.1 million, or 0.4% of net sales, for the three months ended September 28, 2024. Excluding these adjustments, SG&A was 21.0% of net sales for the three months ended September 27, 2025, compared to 20.8% for the three months ended September 28, 2024. SG&A as a percent of sales and adjusted SG&A as a percent of sales are relatively flat year-over-year, as the Company continues to fund growth investments while exercising disciplined and targeted cost management.

SG&A, inclusive of the provision for credit losses, was $2.531 billion, or 22.1% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2025, compared to $2.478 billion, or 21.3% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2024. Within SG&A, Non-GAAP adjustments totaled $78.7 million, or 0.7% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and $62.8 million, or 0.6% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 28, 2024. Excluding these adjustments, SG&A was 21.4% of net sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2025, compared to 20.7% for the nine months ended September 28, 2024. The year-over-year change in SG&A as a percent of sales and adjusted SG&A as a percent of sales was driven by growth investments, which were partially offset by targeted cost management.

Table of Contents

Distribution center costs (i.e. warehousing and fulfillment facility and associated labor costs) are classified within SG&A. This classification may differ from other companies who may report such expenses within cost of sales. Due to diversity in practice, to the extent the classification of these distribution costs differs from other companies, the Company’s gross margins may not be comparable. Such distribution costs classified in SG&A amounted to $130.3 million and $390.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, respectively, and $134.4 million and $396.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively.

Other, net: Other, net totaled $72.2 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $86.4 million in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding Non-GAAP adjustments, Other, net totaled $67.9 million and $89.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in Other, net, both inclusive and exclusive of Non-GAAP adjustments, is primarily driven by lower environmental remediation costs and lower intangible asset amortization.

Other, net totaled $187.4 million in the first nine months of 2025 and $392.9 million in the first nine months of 2024. The year-over-year decrease is primarily driven by a $142.3 million environmental remediation reserve adjustment related to the Centredale site and write-downs on certain investments in 2024, as well as lower intangible asset amortization in 2025. Excluding Non-GAAP adjustments, Other, net totaled $200.2 million and $251.0 million for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in Other, net, excluding Non-GAAP adjustments, is primarily driven by lower environmental remediation costs and intangible asset amortization in 2025, and write-downs on certain investments in 2024.

Loss on Sale of Business: During the first nine months of 2025, the Company reported a pre-tax loss of $0.3 million related to the divestiture of a small business in the Engineered Fastening segment.

Asset Impairment Charges: During the third quarter of 2025, in conjunction with its annual long-term strategic planning, the Company recorded pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $169.1 million primarily driven by updates to the Company’s brand prioritization strategy impacting the Lenox, Troy-Bilt, and Irwin trade names, as well as its ongoing portfolio assessment and the strategic decision to exit most of its minority investments that are mainly associated with legacy corporate ventures.

During the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charges of $46.9 million primarily related to the Lenox trade name. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a pre-tax impairment charge of $25.5 million related to the Infrastructure business.

Refer to Note K, Fair Value Measurements, for additional information on the third quarter 2025 impairment charges related to the trade names and minority investments. Refer to Note Q, Divestitures, for additional information on the divestiture of the Infrastructure business completed in the second quarter of 2024.

Interest, net: Net interest expense was $79.1 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $78.6 million in the third quarter of 2024. On a year-to-date basis, net interest expense was $236.5 million in 2025 and $244.9 million in 2024, primarily driven by higher interest income.

Income Taxes: For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $15.8 million and $53.8 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (44.4)% and (28.3)%, respectively. Excluding the tax effect on Non-GAAP adjustments, for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025, the Company recognized income tax expense of $35.5 million and $26.8 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 14.0% and 5.1%, respectively. These effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2025 differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the remeasurement of uncertain tax positions, partially offset by non-deductible expenses.

For the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $1.6 million and income tax expense of $24.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (1.8)% and 21.0%, respectively. Excluding the tax effect on Non-GAAP adjustments, for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company recognized income tax expense of $10.4 million and $98.7 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 5.3% and 18.5%, respectively. These effective tax rates for the three months ended September 28, 2024 differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the recognition of previously unrecognized foreign deferred tax assets, remeasurement of uncertain tax positions, tax credits, and state income taxes, partially offset by non-deductible expenses and U.S. tax on foreign earnings. For the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the primary drivers are consistent with those discussed above, which in aggregate result in effective tax rates that approximate the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21%.

Refer to Note M, Income Taxes, for additional information on the impacts in interim periods of changes in the estimated annual effective income tax rate.

On December 20, 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development published a proposal for the establishment of a global minimum tax rate of 15% (“Pillar Two"). The Pillar Two rules provide a template that jurisdictions can translate into domestic law, to assist with the implementation within an agreed upon timeframe and in a coordinated manner. Certain countries in which the Company operates have enacted legislation effective January 1, 2024, while other jurisdictions are in various stages of implementation.

The Company has performed an assessment of the potential impact to its income taxes as a result of Pillar Two. The assessment of the potential impact is based on the most recent tax filings, country-by-country reporting, and financial statements of affected subsidiaries. Based on results of the assessment, the Company believes it can avail itself of the transitional safe harbor rules in most jurisdictions in which the Company operates. There are, however, a limited number of jurisdictions where the transitional safe harbor relief does not apply. The Company expects the Pillar Two tax impact from these jurisdictions to be immaterial to its estimated annual tax rate for 2025. The Company continues to assess the potential impact of Pillar Two and monitor developments in legislation, regulation, and interpretive guidance in this area.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including extending and modifying certain Tax Cuts & Jobs Act provisions and accelerating the phase-out of certain Inflation Reduction Act incentives. The OBBBA includes provisions modifying net interest deduction limitations, expensing of U.S.-based research and development expenses, and tax depreciation methods, as well as international tax provisions modifying global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI), foreign-derived intangible income (FDII), base erosion and anti-abuse tax (BEAT), and foreign tax credits. The Company evaluated the impacts of the OBBBA and does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s current year consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to assess the potential impact of the OBBBA and monitor developments in legislation, regulation, and interpretive guidance in this area.

Business Segment Results

The Company’s reportable segments represent businesses that have similar products, services and end markets, among other factors. The Company utilizes segment profit which is defined as net sales minus cost of sales and SG&A inclusive of the provision for credit losses (aside from corporate overhead expense), and segment profit as a percentage of net sales to assess the profitability of each segment.

The Company’s operations are classified into two reportable business segments: Tools & Outdoor and Engineered Fastening.

Tools & Outdoor:


	Third Quarter						Year-to-Date
(Millions of Dollars)	2025			2024			2025			2024
Net sales	$	3,255.5		$	3,263.3		$	9,997.8		$	10,076.6
Segment profit	$	383.2		$	327.5		$	910.5		$	899.3
% of Net sales	11.8		%	10.0		%	9.1		%	8.9		%

Tools & Outdoor net sales decreased $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024 as a 5% increase in price, a 1% increase from foreign currency, and a 1% increase from a product line transfer from Engineered Fastening were offset by a 7% decrease in volume. Organic revenue decreased 2%, driven by expected tariff related promotional reductions and a soft consumer backdrop, partially offset by continued DEWALT® growth. Total revenue decreased 2% in North America, increased 6% in Europe, and decreased 1% in the rest of the world. Excluding the impact from foreign currency, organic revenue decreased 2% in North America, remained flat in Europe, and decreased 1% in the rest of the world.

Tools & Outdoor net sales decreased $78.8 million, or 1%, in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the first nine months of 2024 as a 2% increase in price was more than offset by a 3% decrease in volume. Total revenue decreased 1% in North America, increased 3% in Europe, and decreased 4% in the rest of the world. Excluding the impact from foreign currency, organic revenue decreased 1% in all regions.

Segment profit for the third quarter of 2025 was $383.2 million, or 11.8% of net sales, compared to $327.5 million, or 10.0% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024. Excluding Non-GAAP adjustments, which primarily related to footprint actions associated with the supply chain transformation in both periods, of $6.8 million, or 0.2% of net sales, and $35.5 million, or 1.1% of net sales, for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, segment profit was 12.0% of net sales in the third quarter of 2025 and 11.1% of net sales in the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year change in

segment profit as a percent of sales and adjusted segment profit as a percent of sales was primarily due to price and supply chain transformation efficiencies, partially offset by tariffs, lower volume and inflation.

Segment profit for the first nine months of 2025 was $910.5 million, or 9.1% of net sales, compared to $899.3 million, or 8.9% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2024. Excluding Non-GAAP adjustments, which primarily related to a voluntary retirement program in 2025 and footprint actions associated with the supply chain transformation in both periods, of $70.2 million, or 0.7% of net sales, and $111.0 million, or 1.1% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 and September 28, 2024, respectively, segment profit was 9.8% of net sales in the first nine months of 2025 and 10.0% of net sales in the first nine months of 2024. The year-over-year change in segment profit as a percent of sales and adjusted segment profit was relatively flat as the impact of supply chain transformation efficiencies, price and cost control were offset by the impact from tariffs, lower volume, and investments in growth initiatives.

Engineered Fastening:


	Third Quarter						Year-to-Date
(Millions of Dollars)	2025			2024			2025			2024
Net sales	$	500.5		$	488.0		$	1,448.0		$	1,568.6
Segment profit	$	59.8		$	70.2		$	133.8		$	202.2
% of Net sales	11.9		%	14.4		%	9.2		%	12.9		%

Engineered Fastening net sales increased $12.5 million, or 3%, in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, as a 4% increase in volume, a 1% increase in price, and a 1% increase from foreign currency were partially offset by a 3% decrease from a product line transfer to Tools & Outdoor. Engineered Fastening organic revenues increased 5%, supported by the stronger than anticipated automotive market and continued strength in aerospace, partially offset by lower industrial volume.

Engineered Fastening net sales decreased $120.6 million, or 8%, in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the first nine months of 2024, as a 1% increase in price was more than offset by a 6% decrease from the Infrastructure divestiture and a 3% decrease from a product line transfer to Tools & Outdoor. Engineered Fastening organic revenues increased 1%, driven by strength in aerospace, partially offset by declines in industrial and automotive.

Engineered Fastening segment profit for the third quarter of 2025 totaled $59.8 million, or 11.9% of net sales, compared to $70.2 million, or 14.4% of net sales, in the corresponding 2024 period. Excluding a Non-GAAP charge of $4.1 million, or 0.9% of net sales, for the three months ended September 27, 2025 and a Non-GAAP gain of $2.6 million, or 0.5% of net sales, for the three months ended September 28, 2024, which primarily related to the supply chain transformation in both periods, segment profit amounted to 12.8% of net sales in the third quarter of 2025 compared to 13.9% of net sales in the third quarter of 2024. The year-over-year change in segment profit as a percent of sales and adjusted segment profit as a percent of sales was primarily due to elevated production costs in relation to a tough prior year comparable.

Engineered Fastening segment profit for the first nine months of 2025 totaled $133.8 million, or 9.2% of net sales, compared to $202.2 million, or 12.9% of net sales, in the corresponding 2024 period. Excluding Non-GAAP adjustments of $29.1 million, or 2.1% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 27, 2025, which related to a voluntary retirement program and costs associated with the supply chain transformation, and $3.4 million, or 0.2% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, segment profit amounted to 11.3% of net sales in the first nine months of 2025 compared to 13.1% of net sales in the first nine months of 2024. The year-over-year change in segment profit as a percent of sales and adjusted segment profit as a percent of sales were primarily due to lower volume in the higher-margin automotive business.

Corporate overhead:
