Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate over time.
Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024. In making its evaluation, management has used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013 Framework).
Based on management's assessment utilizing the 2013 Framework, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2024.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued a report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, which appears below.
May 15, 2024
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), of changes in stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2024, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 8. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Indefinite-Lived Tradename Impairment Assessments – Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears Tradenames
As described in Notes 1 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated indefinite-lived tradenames, net balance was $2,167.2 million as of March 31, 2024, of which a portion relates to the carrying values for Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears indefinite-lived tradenames. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at the individual asset level at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Management utilized the excess earnings method to estimate the fair value of individual indefinite-lived intangible assets. The assumptions subject to significant uncertainties include the discount rate, as well as future sales, gross margins, and advertising and marketing expenses.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the indefinite-lived tradename impairment assessments of the Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears tradenames is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears indefinite-lived tradenames; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the discount rate, future sales, gross margins, and advertising and marketing expenses; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s indefinite-lived tradename impairment assessments, including controls over the valuation of the Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears indefinite-lived tradenames. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of the Summer’s Eve, Monistat, and TheraTears indefinite-lived tradenames; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the excess earnings method used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the excess earnings method; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to the discount rate, future sales, gross margins, and advertising and marketing expenses. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to future sales, gross margins, and advertising and marketing expenses involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of the brands; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the excess earnings method and (ii) the reasonableness of the discount rate assumption.
Goodwill Impairment Assessment – North American Women’s Health Reporting Unit
As described in Notes 1 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was $527.7 million as of March 31, 2024, of which a significant portion relates to the carrying value for the North American Women’s Health reporting unit. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below the operating segment level. Goodwill is not amortized, although the carrying value is tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Management utilized the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of its reporting units. The estimates and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of the reporting units are subject to significant uncertainties related to future sales, gross margins, advertising and marketing expenses, and the discount rate.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill impairment assessment of the North American Women’s Health reporting unit is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the North American Women’s Health reporting unit; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to future sales, gross margin, advertising and marketing expenses, and the discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment assessment, including controls over the valuation of the North American Women’s Health reporting unit. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of the North American Women’s Health reporting unit; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow method used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the discounted cash flow method; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to future sales, gross margin, advertising and marketing expenses, and the discount rate. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to future sales, gross margin, and advertising and marketing expenses involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of the North American Women’s Health reporting unit; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow method and (ii) the reasonableness of the discount rate assumption.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- Business and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Business
Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company” or “we”, which reference shall, unless the context requires otherwise, be deemed to refer to Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. and all of its direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) is engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution of over-the-counter (“OTC”) healthcare products to mass merchandisers, drug, food, dollar, convenience and club stores, and e-commerce channels in North America (the United States and Canada) and in Australia and certain other international markets. Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. is a holding company with no operations and is also the parent guarantor of the senior credit facility and the senior notes described in Note 10 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
There has been economic uncertainty in the United States and globally due to several factors, including global supply chain constraints, rising interest rates, a high inflationary environment and geopolitical events. We expect economic conditions will continue to be highly volatile and uncertain, put pressure on prices and supply, and could affect demand for our products. We have continued to see changes in the purchasing patterns of our end customers, including a reduction in the frequency of visits to retailers and a shift in many markets to purchasing our products online.
The volatile environment has impacted the supply of labor and raw materials and exacerbated rising input costs. We have and may continue to experience shortages, delays and backorders for certain ingredients and products, difficulty scheduling shipping for our products, as well as price increases from many of our suppliers for both shipping and product costs. Certain of our third-party manufacturers are currently having, and have had in the past, difficulty meeting demand, which is and has caused shortages of our products, particularly eye care products. These shortages have negatively impacted our results of operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, and we expect further shortages may have a negative impact on our sales. In addition, labor shortages have impacted our manufacturing operations and may impact our ability to supply certain products to our customers. If conditions cause further disruption in the global supply chain, the availability of labor and materials or otherwise further increase costs, it may materially affect our operations and those of third parties on which we rely, including causing material disruptions in the supply and distribution of our products. The extent to which these conditions impact our results and liquidity will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including global supply chain constraints, inflation, global conflicts and instability, and the potential for further outbreaks of severe illnesses. These effects could have a material adverse impact on our business, liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations and those of the third parties on which we rely.
Basis of Presentation
Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year ends on March 31st of each year. References in these Consolidated Financial Statements or notes to a year (e.g., “2024”) mean our fiscal year ended on March 31st of that year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed below, our most significant estimates include those made in connection with the valuation of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, fair value of debt, sales returns and allowances, trade promotional allowances, inventory obsolescence, and accounting for income taxes and related uncertain tax positions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all short-term deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2024, approximately 49% of our cash is held by a bank in Australia and approximately 2% is held by a bank in Singapore. Substantially all of our remaining cash is held by a large U.S. domestic bank. We do not believe that, as a result of this concentration, we are subject to any unusual financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking relationships. Substantially all of the Company's cash balances at March 31, 2024 are uninsured.
Accounts Receivable
We extend non-interest-bearing trade credit to our customers in the ordinary course of business. We maintain an allowance for credit losses based upon historical collection experience and expected collectability of the accounts receivable. In an effort to reduce credit risk, we (i) have established credit limits for all of our customer relationships, (ii) perform ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitor the payment history and aging of customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitor open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance. Included within Accounts Receivable is also a short-term interest-bearing loan receivable from one of our suppliers.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, where cost is determined by using the first-in, first-out method. We reduce inventories for the diminution of value resulting from product obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of estimated net realizable value include (i) product expiration dates, (ii) current sales data and historical return rates, (iii) estimates of future demand, (iv) competitive pricing pressures, (v) new product introductions, and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives:
| Years | |
| Building | 5 to 40 |
|---|---|
| Machinery | 3 to 15 |
| Computer equipment and software | 3 to 5 |
| Furniture and fixtures | 7 to 10 |
| Leasehold improvements | * |
*Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related assets.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset is sold or otherwise disposed of, we remove the cost and associated accumulated depreciation from the respective accounts and recognize the resulting gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
Goodwill
The excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations is classified as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, although the carrying value is tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is one level below the operating segment level. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets generally represent tradenames, brand names and patents and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets with finite lives, amortization is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, typically ranging from 10 to 24 years.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at the individual asset level at least annually in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may exceed their fair values and may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
Debt Origination Costs
We have incurred debt origination costs in connection with the issuance of long-term debt. These costs are amortized over the term of the related debt, using the effective interest method for our senior notes and our term loan facility and the straight-line method for our revolving credit facility. Costs associated with our revolving credit facility are reported as a long-term asset and costs related to our senior notes and the term loan facility are recorded as a reduction of debt.
Revenue Recognition
Nature of Goods and Services
We recognize revenue from product sales. We primarily ship finished goods to our customers and operate intwo segments: North American OTC Healthcare and International OTC Healthcare. The segments are based on differences in geographical area. The North American and International OTC Healthcare segments market a variety of personal care and OTC healthcare products in the following product groups: Analgesics, Cough & Cold, Women's Health, Gastrointestinal, Eye & Ear Care, Dermatologicals, and Oral Care. Our products are distinct and separately identifiable on customer contracts or invoices, with each product sale representing a separate performance obligation.
We sell consumer products under a variety of brands through a broad distribution platform that includes mass merchandisers, drug, food, dollar, convenience and club stores, and e-commerce channels, all of which sell our products to consumers.
See Note 20 for disaggregated revenue information.
Satisfaction of Performance Obligations
Under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, revenue is recognized when control of a promised good is transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for that good. This occurs either when finished goods are transferred to a common carrier for delivery to the customer or when product is picked up by the customer or the customer’s carrier.
Once a product has transferred to the common carrier or been picked up by the customer, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the product. It is at this point that we have a right to payment and the customer has legal title.
Variable Consideration
Provisions for certain rebates, customer promotional programs, product returns, and discounts to customers are accounted for as variable consideration and recorded as a reduction in sales.
We record an estimate of future product returns, chargebacks and logistics deductions concurrent with recording sales, which is made using the most likely amount method that incorporates (i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes in customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of our product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation, packaging and advertising.
We participate in the promotional programs of our customers to enhance the sale of our products. These promotional programs consist of direct-to-consumer incentives, such as coupons and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to our customers, such as allowances for new distribution, including slotting fees, and cooperative advertising. The costs of such activities are recorded as a reduction to revenue when the related sale takes place. Estimates of the costs of these promotional programs are derived using the most likely amount method, which incorporates (i) historical sales experience, (ii) the current promotional offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current market conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing personnel. At the completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted to actual results.
Practical Expedients
Due to the nature (short duration) of our contracts with customers, we apply the practical expedient related to the disclosure of remaining performance obligations. Remaining performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, in which we have the right to invoice the customer at the time the performance obligation is satisfied for the amount of revenue recognized at that time. Accordingly, we have elected the practical expedient available under ASC 606 not to disclose remaining performance obligations for our contracts. The period between when control of the promised products transfers to the customer and when the customer pays for the products is one year or less. As such, we do not adjust product consideration for the effects of a significant financing component. The amortization period of any asset resulting from incremental costs of obtaining a contract would be one year or less.
We expense incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract (broker commissions) when the related sale takes place.
We account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment activities and therefore recognize them upon shipment of goods.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes costs related to the manufacturing of our products, including raw materials, direct labor and indirect plant costs (including depreciation), warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping costs, and handling and storage costs. Warehousing, shipping and handling and storage costs were $68.3 million for 2024, $79.8 million for 2023 and $67.8 million for 2022.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Allowances for distribution costs associated with products, including slotting fees, are recognized as a reduction of sales.
Stock-based Compensation
We recognize stock-based compensation expense by measuring the cost of services to be rendered based on the grant-date fair value of the equity award. Compensation expense is recognized over the period a grantee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, generally referred to as the requisite service period.
Pension Expense
Certain employees of our Lynchburg manufacturing facility were covered by defined benefit pension plans. We had a U.S. qualified defined benefit plan and an unfunded non-qualified plan. During the fourth quarter of 2021, we adopted a plan termination date of April 30, 2021 for the U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan and began the plan termination process. The settlements of the terminated plan occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. At the end of fiscal 2024, the terminated plan's only assets were a minimal amount of cash to cover administrative fees. Our remaining plan is an unfunded plan.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
The Income Taxes topic of the FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the various taxing authorities. As a result, we have applied such guidance in determining our tax uncertainties.
We are subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions.
We classify penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based on income (loss) available to common stockholders and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on income available to common stockholders and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method, which includes stock options and restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Potential common shares, composed of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and unvested RSUs, are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation to the extent that they are dilutive. In loss periods, the assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and RSUs has an antidilutive effect, and therefore these instruments are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share:
| Year Ended March 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (In thousands, except per share data) | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 |
| Numerator | |||
| Net income (loss) | $209,339 | $(82,306) | $205,381 |
| Denominator | |||
| Denominator for basic earnings (loss) per share - weighted average shares outstanding | 49,757 | 49,889 | 50,259 |
| Dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock units and options issued to employees and directors | 421 | — | 583 |
| Denominator for diluted earnings (loss) per share | 50,178 | 49,889 | 50,842 |
| Earnings (loss) per Common Share: | |||
| Basic net earnings (loss) per share | $4.21 | $(1.65) | $4.09 |
| Diluted net earnings (loss) per share | $4.17 | $(1.65) | $4.04 |
For 2024, 2023, and 2022 there were 0.2 million,1.6 million, and 0.4 million shares, respectively, attributable to outstanding stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Leases
We lease real estate and equipment for use in our operations. These leases have lease terms of 1 to 10 years, some of which include options to terminate or extend leases for up to 1 to 10 years or on a month-to-month basis. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion and our lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and liabilities reflect only the options we are reasonably certain that we will exercise.
We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception by assessing whether the arrangement contains an identified asset and whether we have the right to control the identified asset. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets are based on the measurement of the lease liability and also include any lease payments made prior to or on lease commencement and exclude lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred, as applicable.
Variable lease payments that do not vary based on an index or rate are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability determination. Variable lease payments are typically usage-based and are recorded in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
As the implicit rate in our leases is unknown, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the date of adoption for existing leases and at the lease commencement date for new leases in determining the present value of future lease payments. We give consideration to our credit risk, term of the lease, total lease payments and adjust for the impacts of collateral, as necessary, when calculating our incremental borrowing rates. Rent expense for our operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
For the measurement and classification of our lease agreements, we group lease and non-lease components into a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. We have also elected to exclude any leases within our existing classes of assets with a term of twelve months or less.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This ASU requires entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities in a business combination. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard effective April 1, 2023. The impact of the adoption of this new standard will depend on the magnitude of future acquisitions.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance (collectively, "Topic 848"). In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which extends the period of time preparers can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance in Topic 848. Topic 848 provides optional guidance for contract modifications and certain hedging relationships associated with the transition from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. On April 4, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 8 ("ABL Amendment No. 8") to the Company's asset-based revolving credit facility originally entered into on January 31, 2012 (the "2012 ABL Revolver"). ABL Amendment No. 8 provides for the replacement of LIBOR with Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as our reference rate. On June 12, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 7 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 7") to the Company’s term loan originally entered into on January 31, 2012 (the “2012 Term Loan”), effective July 1, 2023. Term Loan Amendment No. 7 provides for the replacement of LIBOR with SOFR as our reference rate. Effective July 1, 2023, we have transitioned all discontinued reference rates to SOFR. The adoption of Topic 848 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this update require that entities disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendments in this update also require disclosure, on an annual basis, of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid are equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid. In addition, the amendments in this update also require that income (or loss) before income taxes be disaggregated between domestic and foreign and income tax expense (or benefit) be disaggregated by federal, state and foreign. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact that this ASU may have on our Consolidated Financial Statement disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this update intend to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, the addition of a category for other segment items by reportable segment, that all annual segment disclosures be disclosed in interim periods, and other related segment disclosures. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact that this ASU may have on our Consolidated Financial Statement disclosures.
- Acquisition
Akorn
On July 1, 2021, we completed the acquisition of the consumer health business assets from Akorn Operating Company LLC ("Akorn"), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated May 27, 2021 (the "Purchase Agreement"), for a purchase price of $228.9 million in cash, subject to certain closing adjustments specified in the Purchase Agreement. As a result of the purchase, we acquired TheraTears and certain other over-the-counter consumer brands. The financial results from this acquisition are included in our North American and International OTC Healthcare segments. The purchase price was funded by a combination of available cash on hand, additional borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver and the net proceeds from the refinancing of the 2012 Term Loan (see Note 10).
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. During 2022, we incurred acquisition-related costs of $5.1 million, which are included in General and administrative expense. In connection with the acquisition, we also entered into a supply arrangement with Akorn for a term ofthree years with optional renewals at prevailing market rates.
We finalized our analysis of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The following table summarizes our allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the July 1, 2021 acquisition date.
| (In thousands) | |
|---|---|
| July 1, 2021 | |
| Inventories | $6,455 |
| Goodwill | 1,098 |
| Intangible assets | 225,410 |
| Total assets acquired | 232,963 |
| Accounts payable | 428 |
| Reserves for sales allowances | 497 |
| Other accrued liabilities | 3,124 |
| Total liabilities assumed | 4,049 |
| Total purchase price | $228,914 |
Based on this analysis, we allocated $195.9 million to non-amortizable intangible assets and $29.5 million to amortizable intangible assets. The non-amortizable intangible assets are classified as trademarks and, of the amortizable intangible assets, $20.4 million are classified as customer relationships and $9.1 million are classified as trademarks. We are amortizing the purchased amortizable intangible assets on a straight-line basis over an estimated weighted average useful life of 12.5 years.
We recorded goodwill of $1.1 million based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the estimate of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is deductible and is being amortized for income tax purposes.
The financial impact of this acquisition was not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements, and, therefore, we have not presented pro forma results of operations for the acquisition.

(a) On January 8, 2024, our Australian subsidiary acquiredone of its suppliers. In connection with this acquisition, we preliminarily allocated $0.6 million to goodwill.
At February 28, 2022, in conjunction with the annual test for goodwill impairment, which coincides with our annual strategic planning process, we recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million to write off the remaining goodwill related to our Painstop brand in our International OTC Healthcare segment.
At February 28, 2023, in conjunction with the annual test for goodwill impairment, which coincides with our annual strategic planning process, we recorded an impairment charge of $48.8 million to adjust the carrying amount of goodwill related to our North American Women's Health and North American Oral Care repor ting units. The impairment charges were primarily a result of increased discount rates due to current macroeconomic conditions discussed in Note 7.
At February 29, 2024, in conjunction with the annual test for goodwill impairment, which coincides with our annual strategic planning process, the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value for all reporting units and accordingly, no impairment charge was taken.
We identify our reporting units in accordance with the FASB ASC Subtopic 280. The carrying value and fair value for intangible assets and goodwill for a reporting unit are calculated based on key assumptions and valuation methodologies. The discounted cash flow methodology is a widely accepted valuation technique utilized by market participants in the transaction evaluation process and has been applied consistently. We also considered our market capitalization at February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, as compared to the aggregate fair values of our reporting units, to assess the reasonableness of our estimates pursuant to the discounted cash flow methodology. The estimates and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of our reporting units and the valuation of the underlying assets and liabilities are inherently subject to significant uncertainties related to future sales, gross margins, and advertising and marketing expenses, which can be impacted by increases in competition, changing consumer preferences, technical advances, supply chain constraints, labor shortages, and inflation. The discount rate assumption may be influenced by such factors as changes in interest rates and rates of inflation, which can have an impact on the determination of fair value. If these assumptions are adversely affected, we may be required to record additional impairment charges in the future.
Our analysis at February 29, 2024 determined that all reporting units had a fair value that exceeded their carrying value by at least 10%, with the exception of the North American Women's Health reporting unit. We performed a sensitivity analysis on our weighted average cost of capital, and we determined that a 50-basis point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have resulted in an impairment charge of $9.1 million. Additionally, a 50-basis point decrease in the terminal growth rate used for each reporting unit would not have resulted in any of our reporting units' fair value being less than their carrying value.

During the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, in conjunction with our strategic planning process, we perform our annual impairment analysis for intangible assets. We utilized the excess earnings method to estimate the fair value of our individual indefinite-lived intangible assets. The assumptions subject to significant uncertainties in the analysis include the discount rate, as well as future sales, gross margins and advertising and marketing expenses. The discount rate assumption may be influenced by such factors as changes in interest rates and rates of inflation, which can have an impact on the determination of fair value. Additionally, should the related fair values of intangible assets be adversely affected as a result of declining sales or margins caused by competition, changing consumer needs or preferences, technological advances, changes in advertising and marketing expenses, or the potential impacts of supply chain constraints, labor shortages, or inflation, we may be required to record additional impairment charges in the future.
At February 28, 2022, in conjunction with the annual test for impairment of intangible assets, we recorded an impairment charge of $0.7 million. In connection with our long-term planning, two non-core brands in our North American OTC Healthcare segment were discontinued and therefore the related finite-lived intangible assets were written off.
As a result of our annual impairment test at February 28, 2023, the fair values of three of our indefinite-lived intangible assets, Summer’s Eve, DenTek and TheraTears, did not exceed the carrying values and, as such, impairment charges totaling $298.7 million were recorded. The impairment charges were primarily a result of an overall increase in the discount rate used to value the brands, as well as, in the case of Summer’s Eve, our reassessment of the long-term sales projections of this brand during our annual planning cycle. The indefinite-lived intangible assets impaired are all part of our North American OTC Healthcare segment.
Our analysis at February 28, 2023 concluded that the fair value of several of our non-core finite-lived intangible assets did not exceed their carrying values, and as such, impairment charges of $22.7 million were recorded. The impairment charges were the result of our reassessment of the long-term sales projections for the associated non-core brands during our annual planning cycle, the largest of which pertains to the strategic exit of our DenTek private label business. The finite-lived trademarks impaired are all part of the North American OTC Healthcare segment.
At February 29, 2024, in conjunction with the annual test for impairment of intangible assets, the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value for all intangible assets and accordingly, no impairment charge was taken.
Our analysis at February 29, 2024 determined that all indefinite-lived intangible assets had a fair value that exceeded their carrying value by at least 10%, with the exception of Summer’s Eve and TheraTears within our North American Women’s Health reporting unit and North American Eye & Ear Care reporting unit, respectively. We performed a sensitivity analysis of our weighted average cost of capital, and we determined that a 50-basis point increase in the weighted average cost of capital used to value all of our indefinite-lived intangible assets would have resulted in an impairment charge of $3.2 million. Additionally, a 50-basis point decrease in the terminal growth rate used for each of our indefinite-lived intangible assets would not have resulted in any of our indefinite-lived intangible assets' fair values being less than their carrying values.
The weighted average remaining life for finite-lived intangible assets at March 31, 2024 was approximately 7.7 years, and the amortization expense for the year ended March 31, 2024 was $19.8 million. At March 31, 2024, finite-lived intangible assets are expected to be amortized over their estimated useful lives, which ranges from a period of 10 to 24 years, and the estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years and periods thereafter is as follows (in thousands):

At March 31, 2024, we hadno balance outstanding on the 2012 ABL Revolver and a borrowing capacity of $171.0 million.
2012 Term Loan and 2012 ABL Revolver:
On January 31, 2012, Prestige Brands, Inc. (the “Borrower") entered into a senior secured credit facility, which originally consisted of (i) the $660.0 million 2012 Term Loan with a 7-year maturity and (ii) the $50.0 million 2012 ABL Revolver with a 5-year maturity. In subsequent years, we have utilized portions of our accordion feature to increase the amount of our borrowing capacity under the 2012 ABL Revolver to the current amount of $200.0 million and reduced our borrowing rate on the 2012 ABL Revolver. We have also amended the 2012 Term Loan several times. The 2012 Term Loan is unconditionally guaranteed by Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. and certain of its domestic 100% owned subsidiaries, other than the Borrower. Each of these guarantees is joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of any of the guarantors to obtain funds from their subsidiaries or to make payments to the Borrower or the Company.
On March 21, 2018, we entered into Amendment No. 5 (“Term Loan Amendment No. 5”) to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 5 provided for the creation of Term B-5 Loans (the "Term B-5 Loans") by repricing the then-existing term loans to an interest rate that was based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.00% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 0.00%, or an alternative base rate plus a margin of 1.00% per annum, with a floor of 1.00%.
On July 1, 2021, we entered into Amendment No. 6 ("Term Loan Amendment No. 6"), to the 2012 Term Loan. Term Loan Amendment No. 6 provides for (i) the refinancing of our outstanding term loans and the creation of a new class of Term B-5 Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $600.0 million, (ii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver, and (iii) an interest rate on the Term B-5 Loans that is based, at our option, on a LIBOR rate plus a margin of 2.00% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 0.50%, or an alternative base rate plus a margin of 1.00% per annum. In addition, Term Loan Amendment No. 6 provides for an extension of the maturity date of the 2012 Term Loan to July 1, 2028. In connection with this refinancing, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.1 million to write off a portion of new and old debt costs relating to this refinancing. Under Term Loan Amendment No. 6, we are required to make quarterly payments each equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2012 Term Loan.
The net proceeds from the new class of Term B-5 Loans were used to refinance our outstanding term loans, finance the acquisition of Akorn and pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with these transactions.
On December 11, 2019, we entered into Amendment No. 7 ("ABL Amendment No. 7"), to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 7 provided for (i) an extension of the maturity date of the 2012 ABL Revolver to December 11, 2024, which wasfive years from the effective date of ABL Amendment No. 7, (ii) increased flexibility under the 2012 ABL Revolver, including additional investment, restricted payment, and debt incurrence flexibility, (iii) an initial applicable margin for borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver that was 1.00% with respect to LIBOR borrowings and 0.0% with respect to base-rate borrowings (which could be increased to 1.25% or 1.50% for LIBOR borrowings and 0.25% or 0.50% for base-rate borrowings, depending on average excess availability under the facility during the prior fiscal quarter), and (iv) a commitment fee to the lenders under the 2012 ABL Revolver in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder of 0.25% per annum.
On April 4, 2023, we entered into ABL Amendment No. 8. ABL Amendment No. 8 provides for the replacement of LIBOR with SOFR as our reference rate for the 2012 ABL Revolver.
On June 12, 2023, we entered into Term Loan Amendment No. 7, effective July 1, 2023. Term Loan Amendment No. 7 provides for the replacement of LIBOR with SOFR as our reference rate for the 2012 Term Loan.
On December 8, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 9 ("ABL Amendment No. 9") to the 2012 ABL Revolver. ABL Amendment No. 9 provides for (i) an increase in the aggregate revolving commitment of the facility from $175.0 million to $200.0 million, (ii) an extension of the maturity date of the 2012 ABL Revolver to December 8, 2028, and (iii) increased flexibility under the credit agreement governing the 2012 ABL Revolver, including increased flexibility related to restricted payments, debt incurrence and borrowing base calculations. There were no changes to interest terms as a result of this amendment.
2019 Senior Notes:
On December 2, 2019, the Borrower issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% senior notes due January 15, 2028 (the "2019 Senior Notes") pursuant to an indenture dated December 2, 2019, among the Borrower, the guarantors party thereto (including the Company) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. We used the net proceeds from the 2019 Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem all $400.0 million of our then-outstanding senior notes issued on December 17, 2013 that were due in 2021, and to pay related fees and expenses.
2021 Senior Notes:
On March 1, 2021, the Borrower issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% senior notes due April 1, 2031 (the "2021 Senior Notes") pursuant to an indenture dated March 1, 2021, among the Borrower, the guarantors party thereto (including the Company), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. We used the net proceeds from the 2021 Senior Notes to redeem all $600.0 million of our then-outstanding 2016 Senior Notes, which were due in 2024, and to pay related fees and expenses.
Interest, Redemptions and Restrictions:
For the year ended March 31, 2024, the average interest rate on the 2012 Term Loan was 7.3%. There were no borrowings under the 2012 ABL Revolver at any time during 2024. For the year ended March 31, 2023, the average interest rate on the 2012 Term Loan was 4.8% and the average interest rate on the amounts borrowed under the 2012 ABL Revolver was 2.5%. We also had amortization related to our long-term debt of $5.2 million and $4.4 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively. Since we have made optional payments that exceed all of our required quarterly payments, we will not be required to make another payment on the 2012 Term Loan until maturity on July 1, 2028.
We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2019 Senior Notes at any time on or after January 15, 2023 at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2019 Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 2019 Senior Notes), the Borrower will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2019 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.
We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2021 Senior Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2026 at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes), the Borrower will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2021 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.
The credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2021 Senior Notes and the 2019 Senior Notes contain provisions that restrict us from undertaking specified corporate actions, such as asset dispositions, acquisitions, dividend payments, repurchases of common shares outstanding, changes of control, incurrences of indebtedness, issuance of equity, creation of liens, making of loans and transactions with affiliates. Additionally, the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2021 Senior Notes and the 2019 Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions, whereby a default pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain indebtedness will cause a default on the remaining indebtedness under the credit agreement governing the 2012 Term Loan and the 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2021 Senior Notes and the 2019 Senior Notes. At March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with the covenants under our long-term indebtedness.
Interest Rate Swaps:
In January 2020, we entered into two interest rate swaps to hedge a total of $400.0 million of our variable interest debt. One swap settled on January 31, 2021 and the other settled on January 31, 2022 (see Note 12 for further details).
As of March 31, 2024, aggregate future principal payments required in accordance with the terms of the 2012 Term Loan, 2012 ABL Revolver and the indentures governing the 2021 Senior Notes and the 2019 Senior Notes are as follows:

- Fair Value Measurements
For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short maturity of these amounts.
The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of the FASB ASC 820 requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market assuming an orderly transaction between market participants. The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic established market (observable inputs) as the preferred source of fair value, to be followed by the Company's assumptions of fair value based on hypothetical transactions (unobservable inputs) in the absence of observable market inputs. Based upon the above, the following fair value hierarchy was created:
Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, as well as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not considered active; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed by the Company using estimates and assumptions reflective of those that would be utilized by a market participant.
The market values have been determined based on market values for similar instruments adjusted for certain factors. As such, the 2021 Senior Notes, the 2019 Senior Notes, and the Term B-5 Loans are measured in Level 2 of the above hierarchy (see summary below detailing the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these instruments at March 31, 2024 and 2023).
| March 31, 2024 | March 31, 2023 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (In thousands) | Carrying Value | Fair Value | Carrying Value | Fair Value |
| 2019 Senior Notes | $400,000 | $389,000 | $400,000 | $383,500 |
| 2021 Senior Notes | 600,000 | 522,750 | 600,000 | 510,750 |
| 2012 Term B-5 Loans | 135,000 | 135,506 | 360,000 | 359,550 |
At March 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not have any assets or liabilities measured in Level 1 or 3. During 2024, 2023 and 2022, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Levels 1, 2 and 3.
In accordance with ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value ("NAV") per share as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.
- Derivative Instruments
Changes in interest rates expose us to risks. To help us manage these risks, in January 2020, we entered into two interest rate swaps to hedge a total of $400.0 million of our variable interest debt. One swap settled on January 31, 2021 and the other settled on January 31, 2022. We do not use derivatives for trading purposes.
The following table summarizes our interest rate swaps, net of tax, for the periods shown:
| (In thousands) | Location | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gain Recognized in Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income (effective portion) | Other comprehensive income (loss) | $— | $— | $1,819 |
| Loss Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income into Income | Interest expense, net | $— | $— | $(2,429) |
Counterparty Credit Risk:
We managed our exposure to counterparty credit risk by only dealing with counterparties who were substantial international financial institutions with significant experience using such derivative instruments.
- Stockholders' Equity
The Company is authorized to issue 250.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 5.0 million shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. The Board of Directors may direct the issuance of the undesignated preferred stock in one or more series and determine preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof.
Each share of common stock has the right toone vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the Board of Directors, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of stock outstanding having priority rights as to dividends. No dividends have been declared or paid on the Company's common stock through March 31, 2024.
During the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we repurchased shares of our common stock and recorded them as treasury stock. Our share repurchases consisted of the following:
| Year Ended March 31, | ||

| Total amount repurchased | $25.0 million | $50.0 million |
- Share-Based Compensation
In connection with our initial public offering, the Board of Directors adopted the 2005 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), which provided for grants of up to a maximum of 5.0 million shares of restricted stock, stock options, RSUs and other equity-based awards. In June 2014, the Board of Directors approved, and in July 2014, our stockholders ratified, an increase of an additional 1.8 million shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2005 Plan, an increase of the maximum number of shares subject to stock options that could be awarded to any one participant under the 2005 Plan during any fiscal 12-month period from 1.0 million to 2.5 million shares, and an extension of the term of the 2005 Plan byten years to February 2025. Directors, officers and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for the Company, were eligible for grants under the 2005 Plan.
On June 23, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan became effective on August 4, 2020, upon the approval of the 2020 Plan by our stockholders. On June 23, 2020, a total of 2,827,210 shares were available for issuance under the 2020 Plan (comprised of 2,000,000 new shares plus 827,210 shares that were unissued under the 2005 Plan). All future equity awards will be made from the 2020 Plan, and the Company will not grant any additional awards under the 2005 Plan.
The following table provides information regarding our stock-based compensation:
| March 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| (In thousands) | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 |

| Tax benefits realized from tax deductions resulting from RSU issuances and stock option exercises | $2,161 | $1,500 | $3,419 |
At March 31, 2024, there were $2.7 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options under the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan, excluding an estimate for forfeitures which may occur. We expect to recognize such costs over a weighted average period of 1.6 years. At March 31, 2024, there were $9.3 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested RSUs and performance-based stock units ("PSUs") under the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan, excluding an estimate for forfeitures that may occur. We expect to recognize such costs over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.
At March 31, 2024, there were 1.9 million shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

RSUs granted to employees under the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan generally vest inthree years, primarily upon the attainment of certain time vesting thresholds, and, in the case of PSUs, are also contingent on the attainment of certain performance goals of the Company, including revenue and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization targets. The
RSUs provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control, as defined in the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan. The RSUs granted to employees generally vest either ratably over three years or in their entirety on thethree-year anniversary of the date of the grant. Upon vesting, the units will be settled in shares of our common stock. Termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the RSUs, unless otherwise accelerated by the Compensation Committee or, in the case of RSUs granted in May 2017 and later, subject to pro-rata vesting in the event of death, disability or retirement. The RSUs granted to directors prior to fiscal 2020 vest immediately upon grant, and will be settled by delivery to the director ofone share of our common stock for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of (i) the director's death, (ii) the director's disability or (iii) the six-month anniversary of the date on which the director's Board membership ceases for reasons other than death or disability. The RSUs granted to directors in fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2022 vest immediately upon grant, and will be settled by delivery to the director ofone share of our common stock for each vested RSU promptly following the earliest of (i) the director's death, (ii) the director's separation from service or (iii) a change in control of the Company. The RSUs granted to directors in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 fully vest one year after receipt of the award, subject to the continued service of the director on such vesting date, and will be settled by delivery to each director of one share of our common stock for each vested RSU either (a) at the election of the director prior to the grant date, immediately upon vesting, or (b) promptly following the earliest of (i) such director's death, (ii) such director's separation from service or (iii) a change in control of the Company.
The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant.

Options
The 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan provide that the exercise price of options granted shall be no less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date the options are granted. Options granted have a term of no greater thanten years from the date of grant and vest in accordance with a schedule determined at the time the option is granted, generally three years. The option awards provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a change in control, as defined in the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan. Except in the case of death, disability or retirement, termination of employment prior to vesting will result in forfeiture of the unvested stock options. Vested stock options will remain exercisable by the employee after termination of employment, subject to the terms in the 2005 Plan and the 2020 Plan.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock and other factors, including the historical volatilities of comparable companies. We use appropriate historical data, as well as current data, to estimate option exercise and employee termination behaviors. Employees that are expected to exhibit similar exercise or termination behaviors are grouped together for the purposes of valuation. The expected terms of the options granted are derived from our historical experience, management’s estimates, and consideration of information derived from the public filings of companies similar to us, and represent the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate represents the yield on U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the expected term of the granted options.

| Balance – end of year | $3,325 | $3,295 | $3,562 |
We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax (benefit) expense. We did not incur any material interest or penalties related to income taxes in 2024, 2023 or 2022. We reasonably anticipate that uncertain tax positions could decrease in the next year by approximately $2.6 million, principally due to the statute of limitation expirations if recognized and would impact the effective tax rate in a future period. We are subject to taxation in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions, and we are generally open to examination from the year ended March 31, 2020 forward.
- Employee Retirement Plans
We have a defined contribution plan in which all U.S. full-time employees are eligible to participate. The participants may contribute from 1% to 70% of their compensation, as defined in the plan. We match 100% of the first 3%, plus 50% of the next 3%, of each participant's base compensation with full vesting immediately. We may also make additional contributions to the plan as determined by the Board of Directors. The total expense for the defined contribution plan was $2.0 million, $1.9 million and $1.7 million for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Certain employees of our Lynchburg manufacturing facility were covered by defined benefit pension plans. We had a qualified defined benefit plan (the "Plan") and an unfunded non-qualified plan.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, we adopted a termination date of April 30, 2021 for the Plan and began the Plan termination process. The settlements of the terminated Plan occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2023, with lump sum settlements in the amount of $13.8 million being paid to eligible Plan participants who elected such payments and the purchase of annuity contracts for $31.1 million to the remaining participants. These settlements were paid using Plan assets and resulted in a settlement loss of $0.4 million. No further contributions to the Plan were necessary.

Prior to the termination of the Plan, the Company's primary investment objective for its qualified pension plan assets was to provide a source of retirement income for the Plan's participants and beneficiaries. There were no plan assets as of March 31, 2024 and all assets at March 31, 2023 were held in cash.

| Expected return on plan assets, net of administrative fees | —% | 2.75% | 2.25% |
*The qualified plan was remeasured at April 30, 2022 for settlement accounting, at which point a discount rate of 3.98% and an expected return assumption of 2.75% were selected and used to determine the net periodic benefit cost (income) for the remainder of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Assumptions used in determining the actuarial present value of the benefit obligation as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
| March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Key assumptions: | ||
| Discount rate | 4.88% | 4.47% |
In fiscal 2023 and 2022, the determination of the expected long-term rate of return was derived from an optimized portfolio using an asset allocation software program. The risk and return assumptions, along with the correlations between the asset classes, were entered into the program. In fiscal 2024, no long-term rate of return is expected due to the termination of the Plan.
- Commitments and Contingencies
We are involved from time to time in routine legal matters and other claims incidental to our business. We review outstanding claims and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess probability and amount of potential loss. These assessments are re-evaluated at each reporting period and as new information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost of resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different than the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible under GAAP to establish a litigation reserve until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be insufficient time to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case of a quickly negotiated settlement). We believe the resolution of routine legal matters and other claims incidental to our business, taking our reserves into account, will not be material to our financial condition or results of operations.
Lease Commitments
See Note 8 for a description of our operating and finance leases.
Purchase Commitments
We have supply agreements for the manufacture of some of our products. The following table shows the minimum amounts that we are committed to pay under these agreements:

- Concentrations of Risk
Our revenues are concentrated in the areas of OTC healthcare. We sell our products to mass merchandisers, drug, food, dollar, convenience and club stores and e-commerce channels. During 2024, 2023, and 2022, approximately 37.9%,38.7%, and 41.3%, respectively, of our gross revenues were derived from our five top selling brands. Two customers, Walmart and Amazon, accounted for more than 10% of our gross revenues during 2024. During 2024, 2023, and 2022, Walmart accounted for approximately 19.7%,19.7%, and 20.5%, respectively, of our gross revenues. During 2024, Amazon accounted for approximately 10.9% of our gross revenues. At March 31, 2024, approximately 19.2% of our accounts receivable were owed by Walmart and approximately 11.0% of our accounts receivable were owed by Amazon.
Our product distribution in the United States is managed by a third-party through one primary distribution center in Clayton, Indiana. We also operate a manufacturing facility in Lynchburg, Virginia, which manufactures products representing approximately 11% of our gross revenues. A natural disaster, such as tornado, earthquake, flood, or fire at our distribution center or our own or a third-party manufacturing facility could damage our inventory and/or materially impair our ability to distribute our products to customers in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost. In addition, a serious disruption caused by performance or contractual issues with our third-party distribution manager, or labor shortages or contagious disease outbreaks or other public health emergencies at our distribution center or manufacturing facilities could also materially impact our product distribution. Any disruption could result in increased costs, expense and/or shipping times, and could harm our reputation and cause us to incur customer fees and penalties. We could also incur significantly higher costs and experience longer lead times should we be required to replace our distribution center, the third-party distribution manager or the manufacturing facilities. As a result, any serious disruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
At March 31, 2024, we had relationships with 122 third-party manufacturers. Of those, we had long-term contracts with 26 manufacturers that produced items that accounted for approximately 72.0% of our gross revenues for 2024, compared to 25 manufacturers with long-term contracts that accounted for approximately 69.8% of gross revenues in 2023. One of our suppliers, a privately owned pharmaceutical manufacturer with whom we have a long-term supply agreement, accounted for more than 10% of our gross revenues during 2024, 2023 and 2022. During 2024, 2023 and 2022, this manufacturer accounted for approximately 20% of our gross revenues while we accounted for a significant portion of their gross revenues over that time period. No other single third-party supplier accounts for 10% or more of our gross revenues. The fact that we do not have long-term contracts with certain manufacturers means that they could cease manufacturing our products at any time and for any reason or initiate arbitrary and costly price increases, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results from operations. Although we are continually in the process of negotiating long-term contracts with certain key manufacturers, we may not be able to reach a timely agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
