actual results to differ materially from such statements. Such risks and uncertainties are identified in the periodic reports Coty has filed and may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") including, but not limited to: the
Company's ability successfully implement its multi-year transformation agenda and to develop and achieve its global business strategies and strategic priorities, compete effectively in the beauty industry and achieve the benefits contemplated by
its strategic initiatives within the expected time frame or at all; the timing, costs and impacts of future divestitures (and the amount and use of proceeds from any such transactions); the impact of COVID-19 (or future similar events); the
integration of acquisitions with the Company's business, operations, systems, financial data and culture and the ability to realize synergies, avoid future supply chain and other business disruptions, reduce costs and realize other potential
efficiencies and benefits (including through its restructuring initiatives) at the levels and at the costs and within the time frames contemplated or at all; disruptions in the availability and distribution of raw materials and components needed to
manufacture the Company's products; managerial, operational, regulatory, legal and financial risks, including diversion of management attention to and management of cash flows, expenses and costs associated with multiple ongoing and future
strategic initiatives, internal reorganizations and restructuring activities, including its transformation agenda; any unanticipated problems, liabilities or integration or other challenges associated with a past or future acquired business, joint
ventures or strategic partnerships which could result in increased risk or new, unanticipated or unknown liabilities, including with respect to environmental, competition and other regulatory, compliance or legal matters and litigation or
investigations by governmental authorities; currency exchange rate volatility and currency devaluation and/or inflation; changes in the demand for the Company's products due to declining or depressed global or regional economic conditions,
and declines in consumer confidence or spending; global political and/or economic uncertainties, disruptions or major regulatory or policy changes, and/or the enforcement thereof that affect the Company's business, financial performance,
operations or products, including the impact of the war in Ukraine and any related escalation or expansion thereof; the Company's ability to retain and attract key personnel; the Company's ability to adapt its business to address climate change
concerns and to respond to increasing governmental and regulatory measures relating to ESG matters; and the impact of senior management transitions and organizational structure changes.
The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included elsewhere. More information about potential risks and uncertainties that
could affect Coty's business and financial results is included under "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Coty's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2022 and other periodic reports Coty has filed and may file with the SEC from time to time. Any forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. All forward-looking
statements are made only as of the date of this presentation, and, Coty undertakes no obligation, other than as may be required by applicable law, update or revise any forward-looking or cautionary statements to reflect changes in assumptions,
the occurrence of events, unanticipated or otherwise, or changes in future operating results over time or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this presentation, Coty presents certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe enable management and investors to analyze and compare the underlying business results from period to period, including constant currency, organic like-
for-like (LFL) and adjusted metrics, adjusted operating income, adjusted gross margin, as well as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), adjusted EPS, net debt or financial net debt, economic
net debt, free cash flow and immediate liquidity. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period, with the current period's results calculated at the prior-year
period's rates. The term "like-for-like" describes the Coty's core operating performance, excluding the financial impact of (i) acquired brands or businesses in the current year period until Coty has twelve months of comparable financial results, (ii)
divested brands or businesses or early terminated brands, generally, in the prior year non-comparable periods, to maintain comparable financial results with the current fiscal year period and (iii) foreign currency exchange translations to the
extent applicable. Adjusted metrics exclude nonrecurring items, purchase price accounting-related amortization, acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs, stock-based compensation, costs related to market exit, loss on early extinguishment of
debt, asset impairment charges, and certain other information as noted within this presentation. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures, and net debt is defined as total debt less cash and
cash equivalents. "Immediate liquidity" is defined as the sum of available cash and cash equivalents and available borrowings under Coty's Revolving Credit Facility. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a
substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that Coty provides guidance, it does so only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP
measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including adjustments that could be made for restructuring, integration and acquisition-related expenses,
amortization expenses, adjustments to inventory, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant. Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures
to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measures are contained in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC May 9, 2023.
