CHURCH & DWIGHT CO INC /DE/

We believe executive pay must be internally consistent and equitable to motivate our employees to create shareholder value. We are committed to internal pay equity, and the Compensation & Human Capital Committee monitors the relationship between the pay our officers receive and the pay ournon-officer employees receive. The compensation for our CEO in 2024 was approximately 157.1:1 times the 2024 pay for our median employee.

As a result of the rules adopted by the SEC under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), we are required to disclose the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of our median employee, using the required calculations. As permitted by the rules, we used the median employee identified in 2023 for our 2024 analysis. There was no significant change in the Company’s employee population from 2023 to 2024 or in our compensation arrangements. In 2023, we examined the target total cash compensation (base salary plus target bonus) for all individuals excluding our CEO, who were employed by us on November 30, 2023. We included all employees, whether employed on a full-time or part-time basis. We did not make any assumptions, adjustments, or estimates with respect to target total cash compensation. We excluded four employees from Brazil, which represented less than one percent of the Company’s total employee population of 5,575 as of November 30, 2023. We believe the use of target total cash compensation for all employees is a consistently applied compensation measure because we do not widely distribute annual equity awards to employees.

We calculated annual total compensation for that employee using the same methodology we use for our named executive officers as set forth in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table in this Proxy Statement.

As illustrated in the table below, our 2024 CEO to median employee pay ratio is 157.1:1.
