Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

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

The following discussion is meant to provide investors with information management believes is helpful in reviewing Energizer’s historical-basis results of operations, operating segment results, and liquidity and capital resources. Statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) that are not historical may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You should read the following MD&A in conjunction with the Consolidated (Condensed) Financial Statements (unaudited) and corresponding notes included herein.

All amounts discussed are in millions of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains both historical and forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead reflect our expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events, including, without limitation, the future sales, gross margins, costs, earnings, cash flows, tax rates and performance of the Company. These statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "expectation," "anticipate," "may," "could," "will," "intend," "belief," "estimate," "plan," "target," "predict," "likely," "should," "forecast," "outlook," or other similar words or phrases. These statements are not guarantees of performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. We cannot assure you that any of our expectations, estimates or projections will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included in this document are only made as of the date of this document and we disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. Numerous factors could cause our actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:

•Global economic and financial market conditions beyond our control might materially and negatively impact us.

•Competition in our product categories might hinder our ability to execute our business strategy, achieve profitability, or maintain relationships with existing customers.

•Changes in the retail environment and consumer preferences could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

•Loss or impairment of the reputation of our Company or our leading brands or failure of our marketing plans could have an adverse effect on our business.

•Loss of any of our principal customers could significantly decrease our sales and profitability.

•Our ability to meet our growth targets depends on successful product, marketing and operations innovation and successful responses to competitive innovation and changing consumer habits.

•We are subject to risks related to our international operations, including tariffs and currency fluctuations, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

•We must successfully manage the demand, supply, and operational challenges brought on by any disease outbreak, including epidemics, pandemics, or similar widespread public health concerns.

•If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, competitors may manufacture and market similar products, which could adversely affect our market share and results of operations.

•Changes in production costs, including raw material prices and transportation costs, from tariffs, inflation or otherwise, have adversely affected, and in the future could erode, our profit margins and negatively impact operating results.

•Our reliance on certain significant suppliers subjects us to numerous risks, including possible interruptions in supply, which could adversely affect our business.

•Our business is vulnerable to the availability of raw materials, as well as our ability to forecast customer demand and manage production capacity.

•The manufacturing facilities, supply channels or other business operations of the Company and our suppliers may be subject to disruption from events beyond our control.

•Our future results may be affected by our operational execution, including our ability to achieve cost savings as a result of any current or future restructuring efforts.

•If our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets become impaired, we will be required to record impairment charges, which may be significant.

•Sales of certain of our products are seasonal and adverse weather conditions during our peak selling seasons for certain auto care products could have a material adverse effect.

•We may use artificial intelligence in our business, which could result in reputational harm, competitive harm, and legal liability, and adversely affect our operations.

30

•A failure of a key information technology system could adversely impact our ability to conduct business.

•We rely significantly on information technology and any inadequacy, interruption, theft or loss of data, malicious attack, integration failure, failure to maintain the security, confidentiality or privacy of sensitive data residing on our systems or other security failure of that technology could harm our ability to effectively operate our business and damage the reputation of our brands.

•We may not be able to attract, retain and develop key employees, as well as effectively manage human capital resources.

•We have significant debt obligations that could adversely affect our business.

•Our credit ratings are important to our cost of capital.

•We may experience losses or be subject to increased funding and expenses related to our pension plans.

•The estimates and assumptions on which our financial projections are based may prove to be inaccurate, which may cause our actual results to materially differ from our projections, which may adversely affect our future profitability, cash flows and stock price.

•If we pursue strategic acquisitions, divestitures or joint ventures, we might experience operating difficulties, dilution, and other consequences that may harm our business, financial condition, and operating results, and we may not be able to successfully consummate favorable transactions or successfully integrate acquired businesses.

•Our business involves the potential for product liability claims, labeling claims, commercial claims and other legal claims against us, which could affect our results of operations and financial condition and result in product recalls or withdrawals.

•Our business is subject to increasing government regulations in both the U.S. and abroad that could impose material costs.

•Section 45X of the Internal Revenue Code contains production tax credits for certain battery components. Our ability to benefit from Section 45X production tax credits is not guaranteed and is dependent upon the federal government's ongoing implementation, guidance, regulations, or rulemakings.

•Increased focus by governmental and non-governmental organizations, customers, consumers and shareholders on sustainability issues, including those related to climate change, may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and damage our reputation.

•We are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may expose us to significant liabilities and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

•We are subject to uncertainties regarding the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") tariff refunds, including the timing of these refunds.

In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we consider immaterial could affect the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. The list of factors above is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. Additional risks and uncertainties include those discussed herein and detailed from time to time in our other publicly filed documents, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 18, 2025, Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," and our subsequent filings with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful comparisons to the corresponding historical or future period, and are used for management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, acquisition and integration costs, a litigation matter, the loss on extinguishment/modification of debt and the non-cash settlement loss on the U.K. pension plan termination. In addition, these measures help investors to analyze year-over-year comparability when excluding currency fluctuations as well as other Company initiatives that are not on-going. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are an enhancement to assist investors in understanding our business and in performing analysis consistent with financial models developed by research analysts. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in methods and in the items being adjusted.

We provide the following non-GAAP measures and calculations, as well as the corresponding reconciliation to the closest GAAP measure:

Segment Profit. This amount represents the operations of our two reportable segments including allocations for shared support functions. General corporate and other expenses, Intangible amortization expense, Interest expense, Loss on extinguishment/modification of debt, Other items, net, restructuring and related costs, network transition costs FY23 & FY24 production credits, the charges related to acquisition and integration costs and a litigation matter have all been excluded from segment profit.

31

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Common Share (EPS). These measures exclude the impact of the costs related to restructuring activities, network transition costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, acquisition and integration, a litigation matter, the Loss on extinguishment/modification of debt and the settlement loss on the U.K. pension plan termination.

Non-GAAP Tax Rate. This is the tax rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of restructuring activities, network transition activities, FY23 & FY24 production credits, acquisition and integration, a litigation matter, the loss on extinguishment/modification of debt and the settlement loss on the U.K. pension plan termination, as well as the related tax impact for these items, calculated utilizing the statutory rate for the jurisdictions where the impact was incurred.

Organic. This is the non-GAAP financial measurement of the change in Net sales or Segment profit that excludes or otherwise adjusts for the Acquisition impact, the Change in Highly inflationary markets and impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below:

Acquisition Impact.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion is a summary of the key factors management considers necessary in reviewing the Company's results of operations, operating segment results, and liquidity and capital resources. Statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) that are not historical may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

You should read the following MD&A in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and corresponding notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements. The matters discussed in these forward-looking statements are subject to risk, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements. Please see Part I. Item 1A “Risk Factors” above and “Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

All amounts discussed are in millions of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains both historical and forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead reflect our expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events, including, without limitation, the future sales, gross margins, costs, earnings, cash flows, tax rates and performance of the Company. These statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "expectation," "anticipate," "may," "could," "intend," "belief," "estimate," "plan," "target," "predict," "likely," "should," "forecast," "outlook," or other similar words or phrases.

These non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that are not reflective of the Company's on-going operating performance, such as restructuring and related costs, network transition costs, acquisition and integration costs, fiscal 2023 ("FY23") and fiscal 2024 ("FY24") production credits, a litigation matter, an impairment on intangible assets, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment/modification of debt, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform and the settlement loss on U.S. pension annuity buyout. In addition, these measures help investors to analyze year-over-year comparability when excluding currency fluctuations as well as other Company initiatives that are not on-going. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are an enhancement to assist investors in understanding our business and in performing analysis consistent with financial models developed by research analysts. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items being adjusted.

We provide the following non-GAAP measures and calculations, as well as the corresponding reconciliation to the closest GAAP measure:

Segment Profit. This amount represents the operations of our two reportable segments including allocations for shared support functions. General corporate and other expenses, Intangible amortization expense, an impairment on intangible assets, Interest expense, Loss/(gain) on extinguishment/modification of debt, Other items, net, restructuring and related costs,

30

network transition costs, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter and the charges related to acquisition and integration costs have all been excluded from segment profit.

Adjusted net earnings and Adjusted Diluted net earnings per common share ("EPS"). These measures exclude the impact of the costs related to restructuring activities, network transition costs, acquisition and integration, an impairment on intangible assets, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter, the Loss/(gain) on extinguishment/modification of debt, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform and the settlement loss on U.S. pension annuity buyout.

Non-GAAP Tax Rate. This is the tax rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of restructuring activities, network transition activities, acquisition and integration, an impairment on intangible assets, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter, the loss/(gain) on extinguishment/modification of debt. the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform, and the settlement loss on U.S. pension annuity buyout, as well as the related tax impact for these items, calculated utilizing the statutory rate for the jurisdictions where the impact was incurred.

Organic. This is the non-GAAP financial measurement of the change in Net sales or segment profit that excludes or otherwise adjusts for the Acquisition impact, Change in highly inflationary markets and Impact of currency from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates as defined below:

Acquisition Impact. The Company completed the Advanced Power Solutions NV ("APS NV") acquisition on May 2, 2025 ("APS NV Acquisition"). These adjustments include the impact of the operations associated with the acquired branded battery business. The Company will be working to transition from these branded business to legacy brands by December 31, 2025. This does not include the impact of acquisition and integration costs associated with this acquisition.

Change in Highly Inflationary Markets. The Company is presenting separately all changes in sales and segment profit from our Egypt and Argentina affiliates due to the designation of the economies as highly inflationary as of October 1, 2024 and July 1, 2018, respectively.

Impact of currency. The Company evaluates the operating performance of our Company on a currency     neutral basis. The Impact of Currency is the change in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year on reported results, which is calculated by comparing the value of current year foreign operations at the current period USD exchange rate versus the value of current year foreign operations at the prior period USD exchange rate. The impact of currency also includes gains/(losses) of currency hedging programs, and it excludes highly-inflationary markets.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, adjusted Selling, General & Administrative ("SG&A") as a percent of sales and adjusted Other items, net. Detail for Adjusted Gross margin, Adjusted SG&A as a percent of sales, and Adjusted Other items, net are also supplemental non-GAAP measures. These measures exclude the impact of costs related to restructuring activities, network transition activities, FY23 & FY24 production credits, a litigation matter, acquisition and integration, the December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform and the settlement loss on U.S. pension annuity buyout.

Production Tax Credits under the Inflationary Reduction Act

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was signed into law. The IRA includes multiple incentives to promote clean energy and energy storage manufacturing among other provisions. The tax credits are available from calendar year 2023 to 2032 subject to phase out beginning in calendar year 2030. In December 2024, the United States Treasury issued final regulations related to the Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit ("production credit"), which provided updated definitions and additional guidance and examples on production credits. The production credit is a refundable tax credit for battery cells and modules manufactured in the United States, as well as a credit for electrode active material and other components produced for batteries.

Following the final regulations on Section 45X that became effective in December 2024, the Company began reviewing the potential applicability to our batteries and various components produced in the United States for application of the production credits. The Company achieved reasonable assurance over our ability to claim the production credits during fiscal 2025 and recognized an estimated $120.9 reduction to Cost of products sold ("COGS") on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income for the tax credit on production and sales retroactive to January 1, 2023. The credit recognized included an estimated $41.6 for the credit related to fiscal 2025 production and an additional $79.3 credit for fiscal 2023 and 2024 production since the effective date of the IRA, January 1, 2023 ("FY23 & FY24 production credit").

The Company expects future year credits to be approximately $40 to $45 annually based on current regulations prior to the phase out period. Amounts recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements are based on Management's judgment and

best estimate utilizing the most current guidance. The Company will continue to evaluate the effects of the IRA to the extent more guidance is issued and the relevant implications to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from management’s current estimate.

December 2023 Argentina Economic Reform

In November 2023, a new president was elected in Argentina who is implementing significant economic reform. Upon his inauguration in December 2023, the government devalued the Argentine Peso ("ARS") approximately 50% over night. As a result, Argentina's operating costs rose quicker than the Company was able to implement price increases to offset the rising costs. The Company anticipates this could continue, resulting in a continued decline to operating profit. The Company had net sales of $33.9, $38.0, and $45.8 for fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company had operating profit of $8.9, $10.7 and $16.0 in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The December 2023 currency devaluation and economic reform resulted in $22.0 of currency and related losses recognized in Other items, net during the twelve months ended September 30, 2025. This includes exchange losses of $14.7 from the December remeasurement of the Company's Argentina monetary assets and liabilities and $6.3 of transactional currency exchange losses on the ARS in December which are discussed further in Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. The Company also recorded a loss of $1.0 on the purchase and sale of bonds issued by the Argentina Central Bank ("BCRA"), named BOPREALs, which were issued to provide a USD denom
