Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in various legal claims and proceedings in the normal course of operations. We believe the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity, except as described in Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and described below.
EPA Regulatory Matter
During fiscal 2022 and 2023, we were in discussions with the EPA regarding the compliance of packaging and labeling claims on certain of our products in the air and water filtration and humidification categories within the Beauty & Wellness segment that are sold in the U.S. The EPA did not raise any product quality, safety or performance issues. As a result of these packaging and labeling compliance discussions, we completed the repackaging and relabeling of impacted products during fiscal 2023. We continue to have ongoing settlement discussions with the EPA related to this matter. As of February 28, 2026, we accrued an estimated liability of $4.4 million, which represents our best estimate of probable settlement costs related to this matter.
See Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
