NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

A. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly its financial position as at March 31, 2014 and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013 was derived from audited financial statements.

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the first quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company identified an error in the accounting for certain of its investments in private equity limited partnership funds. The investments were inappropriately accounted for under the cost basis versus the equity method. The impact of the error was to under report the investment value (included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets) and to over (under) state equity investment earnings (loss) (included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations). We have revised our first quarter 2013 consolidated statement of operations and prior year consolidated balance sheet in these financial statements to reflect the investment accounted for as an equity investment. Retained earnings and other comprehensive income were adjusted for the changes in net income. Other historic periods will be revised, as detailed below, in our future filings. This error is not considered material to any prior period financial statement.

This revision has no effect on our consolidated statement of cash flows.

The following table presents the impact of the revisions on the Company’s previously issued full-year consolidated statement of operations (in millions):

|  | Year ended December 31, |

Note A — concluded:

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements. As previously disclosed, during the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company identified an error related to the classification of cash and cash investments. Foreign short-term bank deposits with terms ranging from three months to twelve months were incorrectly classified as cash and cash investments rather than short-term bank deposits. The statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2013 has been revised. Other historic periods will be revised, as detailed below, in our future filings. These classification errors were not considered material to any prior period financial statements.

This revision had no effect on our consolidated results of operations.

The following table presents the impact of the revisions on the Company’s previously issued consolidated balance sheets and statements of cash flows (all cash flow figures are year-to-date, in millions).

|  | Mar. 31, |  | June 30, |

The revisions did not significantly impact the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash investments in either quarter above. These changes will be reflected in the revised statements of cash flows, in future filings.

B. In the first quarter of 2013, the Company determined that Tvilum, its Danish ready-to-assemble cabinet business, was no longer core to its long-term growth strategy and, accordingly, the Company embarked on a plan for disposition. The disposition of Tvilum was completed in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company has accounted for this business as a discontinued operation.

Selected financial information for the discontinued operations, during the period owned by the Company, was as follows, in millions:

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | March 31, 2013 |
Net Sales |  | $ | 59 |
Operating loss from discontinued operations |  | $ | (3 | )
Impairment of assets |  | (10 | )
Loss on disposal of discontinued operations, net |  | — |
Loss before income tax |  | (13 | )
Income tax benefit |  | (4 | )
Loss from discontinued operations |  | $ | (9 | )

In the first quarter of 2014, the Company recognized $2 million of additional expenses related to prior discontinued operations.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company estimated the fair value of the business held for sale, using unobservable inputs (Level 3). After considering the deferred gains reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, the Company recorded an impairment of $10 million in the first quarter of 2013.

D. Depreciation and amortization expense, including discontinued operations, was $43 million and $51 million, including accelerated depreciation (relating to business rationalization initiatives) of $1 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

E. The Company has maintained investments in available-for-sale securities and a number of private equity funds, principally as part of its tax planning strategies, as any gains enhance the utilization of any current and future tax capital losses. Financial investments included in other assets were as follows, in millions:

|  | March 31, |  | December 31, |
|  | 2014 |  | 2013 |
Equity method investments |  | $ | 68 |  | $ | 70 |

Other investments |  | 3 |  | 3 |
Total non-recurring investments |  | 20 |  | 21 |
Total |  | $ | 110 |  | $ | 113 |

Equity Method Investments. Investments in private equity fund partnerships, joint ventures and less than majority-owned subsidiaries in which we have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. Our consolidated statements of operations include the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or (loss) of our equity method investees. When we record our proportionate share of net income (loss), it increases (decreases) our equity income in our consolidated statement of operations and our carrying value of that investment on our consolidated balance sheet.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements. The fair value of the auction rate securities held by the Company have been estimated, on a recurring basis, using a discounted cash flow model (Level 3 input). The significant inputs in the discounted cash flow model used to value the auction rate securities include: expected maturity of auction rate securities, discount rate used to determine the present value of expected cash flows and the assumptions for credit defaults, since the auction rate securities are backed by credit default swap agreements.

The Company’s investments in auction rate securities included cost basis of $19 million and pre-tax unrealized gains of $3 million and had a recorded basis of $22 million at both March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not measure any financial investments at fair value on a non-recurring basis, as there was no other-than-temporary decline in the estimated value of private equity funds.

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 financial assets in the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.

Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of the Company’s short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues or the current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The aggregate estimated market value of short-term and long-term debt at March 31, 2014 was approximately $3.8 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.4 billion. The aggregate estimated market value of short-term and long-term debt at December 31, 2013 was approximately $3.7 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.4 billion.

F. The Company is exposed to global market risk as part of its normal daily business activities. To manage these risks, the Company enters into various derivative contracts. These contracts include interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency exchange contracts and metals contracts intended to hedge the Company’s exposure to copper and zinc. The Company reviews its hedging program, derivative positions and overall risk management on a regular basis.

Foreign Currency Contracts. The Company’s net cash inflows and outflows exposed to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates arise from the sale of products in countries other than the manufacturing source, foreign currency denominated supplier payments, debt and other payables, and investments in subsidiaries. To mitigate this risk during the year, the Company, including certain European operations, enters into foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency exchange contracts.

Gains (losses) related to foreign currency forward and exchange contracts are recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), net. In the event that the counterparties fail to meet the terms of the foreign currency forward contracts, the Company’s exposure is limited to the aggregate foreign currency rate differential with such institutions.

Metals Contracts. The Company has entered into several contracts to manage its exposure to increases in the price of copper and zinc. (Losses) gains related to these contracts are recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations in cost of sales.

H. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a bank group, with an aggregate commitment of $1.25 billion and a maturity date of March 28, 2018.

Based on the limitations of the debt to total capitalization ratio covenant in the Credit Agreement, at March 31, 2014, the Company had additional borrowing capacity, subject to availability, of up to $1.2 billion. Additionally, at March 31, 2014, the Company could absorb a reduction to shareholders’ equity of approximately $796 million and remain in compliance with the debt to total capitalization covenant.

In order for the Company to borrow under the Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in the Company’s covenants in the Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, legal compliance requirements and maintenance of properties and insurance) and the Company’s representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement must be true in all material respects on the date of borrowing (i.e., principally no material adverse change or litigation likely to result in a material adverse change, since December 31, 2012, in each case, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance and no material tax deficiency). The Company was in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings have been made at March 31, 2014.

I. The Company’s 2005 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) provides for the issuance of stock-based incentives in various forms to employees and non-employee Directors of the Company.

Long-Term Stock Awards. Long-term stock awards are granted to key employees and non-employee Directors of the Company and do not cause net share dilution inasmuch as the Company continues the practice of repurchasing and retiring an equal number of shares in the open market. The Company granted 1,582,210 shares of long-term stock awards in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The Company’s long-term stock award activity was as follows, shares in millions:

At both March 31, 2014 and 2013, there was $94 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock awards; such awards had a weighted average remaining vesting period of four years in both 2014 and 2013.

The total market value (at the vesting date) of stock award shares which vested during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $45 million and $32 million, respectively.

Stock Options. Stock options are granted to key employees of the Company. The exercise price equals the market price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date. These options generally become exercisable (vest ratably) over five years beginning on the first anniversary from the date of grant and expire no later than 10 years after the grant date.

The Company granted 332,750 of stock option shares in the three months ended March 31, 2014 with a grant date exercise price approximating $22 per share. In the first three months of 2014, 121,850 stock option shares were forfeited (including options that expired unexercised).

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company allocated dividends and undistributed earnings to the unvested restricted stock awards (participating securities).

Additionally, 11 million and 15 million common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share due to their antidilutive effect.

In the first three months of 2014, the Company granted 1.6 million shares of long-term stock awards; to offset the dilutive impact of these awards, the Company also repurchased and retired 1.7 million shares of Company common stock, for cash aggregating approximately $39 million. At March 31, 2014, the Company had 20.9 million shares of its common stock remaining under the July 2007 Board of Directors’ repurchase authorization.

On the basis of amounts paid (declared), cash dividends per common share were $.075 ($.075) for both the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

P. We are subject to claims, charges, litigation and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defect, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes and other matters, including class actions. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters and that the outcome of these matters is not likely to have a material adverse effect on us. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

Q. Our effective tax rate was 5 percent and 16 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in the valuation allowance resulting from the partial utilization of our U.S. Federal net operating loss carryforward. The effective tax rate includes a $15 million and $12 million state income tax benefit on uncertain tax positions primarily due to the expiration of applicable statutes of limitation for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

As a result of expirations of applicable statutes of limitations in various jurisdictions expected to transpire or occur within the next 12 months, the Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the liability for uncertain tax positions could be reduced by approximately $3 million.

We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. However, we believe that certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results.

NET SALES

Net sales increased five percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, from the comparable period of 2013. Excluding the favorable effect of currency translation and the acquisition of a small U.K. door business, net sales increased four percent in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. The following table reconciles reported net sales to net sales, excluding acquisitions and the effect of currency translation, in millions:

|  | Three Months Ended |

North American net sales were positively impacted by increased sales volume of installation and other services, plumbing products, paints and stains, windows and builders’ hardware, which, in the aggregate, increased North American sales by five percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, from the comparable period of 2013. Net sales were also positively affected by net selling price increases, primarily related to cabinets, installation and other services and windows, which increased sales by two percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, from the comparable period of 2013. Such increases were offset by lower sales volume and a less favorable product mix of cabinets and lower selling prices of paints and stains, which, in the aggregate, reduced North American sales by two percent from the comparable period of 2013. Our North American sales were also negatively affected by inclement weather in portions of the United States.

A weaker U.S. dollar increased International net sales by five percent in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013. In local currencies, net sales from International operations increased seven percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to increased sales volume of International cabinets, plumbing products and windows and selling price increases for International plumbing products.

Net sales of Cabinets and Related Products were flat due to increased selling prices of North American cabinets and increased sales volume of International cabinets, which offset lower sales volume and a less favorable product mix of North American cabinets.

Net sales of Plumbing Products increased due to increased sales volume of both North American and International operations, which, on a combined basis, increased sales by four percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, from the comparable period of 2013. A weaker U.S. dollar increased sales by one percent in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 from the comparable period of 2013. Such increases were partially offset by the exit of the bathware business.

Net sales of Installation and Other Services increased for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period of 2013, primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction, as well as increased sales volume of commercial sales. Net sales in this segment were also positively affected by increased selling prices. Such increases were partially offset by a less favorable product mix.

Net sales of Decorative Architectural Products increased for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period of 2013, due to increased sales volume of paints and stains and builders’ hardware, partially offset by lower selling prices of paints and stains and a less favorable product mix.

Net sales of Other Specialty Products increased for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period of 2013, due to a more favorable product mix and increased selling prices of North American windows in the Western U.S. and increased sales volume of North American and International windows. A weaker U.S. dollar increased sales by two percent in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to 2013.

OPERATING MARGINS

Our gross profit margins were 27.8 percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared with 27.1 percent for the comparable period of 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 20.1 percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 compared to 20.0 percent for the comparable period of 2013.

Gross profit margins for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 were positively affected by increased sales volume and lower business rationalization costs, as well as a more favorable relationship between selling prices and commodity costs and the benefits associated with business rationalization activities and other cost savings initiatives.

We have been focused on the strategic rationalization of our businesses, including business consolidations, plant closures, headcount reductions and other initiatives. Operating profit for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 includes $5 million of costs and charges related to our business rationalizations and other initiatives. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, we incurred costs and charges of $8 million related to these initiatives.

Operating margins in the Cabinets and Related Products segment for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 were negatively affected by lower North American sales volume and the related under-absorption of fixed costs, as well as a less favorable product mix of North American cabinets. Such declines more than offset a more favorable relationship between selling prices and commodity costs and the benefits associated with business rationalization activities and other cost savings initiatives. This segment was also negatively affected by inefficiencies related to detrimental weather in portions of the United States.

Operating margins in the Plumbing Products segment for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 were positively impacted by increased sales volume, a more favorable product mix and the benefits associated with business rationalization activities and other cost savings initiatives.

Operating margins in the Installation and Other Services segment for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 were positively impacted by increased sales volume and the related absorption of fixed costs, a more favorable relationship between selling prices and commodity costs and the benefits associated with business rationalization activities and other cost savings initiatives. This segment was negatively affected by weather-related inefficiencies in portions of the United States.

Operating margins in the Decorative Architectural Products segment for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 were negatively affected by an unfavorable relationship between selling prices and commodity costs and increased advertising costs, as well as a less favorable product mix, partially offset by increased sales volume.

Operating margins in the Other Specialty Products segment for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 reflect a more favorable product mix, a more favorable relationship between selling prices and commodity costs, lower business rationalization costs and increased sales volume. Such improvements to operating margins were partially offset by increased expenses related to ERP system implementation.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET

Interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 decreased $4 million from the comparable period of 2013 primarily due to the repurchase and retirement of $200 million of 7.125% Notes on August 15, 2013, the scheduled retirement date.

Other, net, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 included gains of $1 million related to distributions from private equity funds and $2 million of loss from equity investments. Other, net, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 included gains of $3 million related to distributions from private equity funds and $7 million of income from equity investments.

Other, net, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 included $2 million of currency transaction losses. Other items, net, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 included $3 million of currency transaction gains.

INCOME PER COMMON SHARE FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS — Attributable to Masco Corporation

Income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 was $76 million compared with $62 million for the comparable period of 2013. Diluted earnings per common share for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 was $.21 per common share compared with $.17 per common share for the comparable period of 2013.

Our effective tax rate was five percent for the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to the decrease in the valuation allowance resulting from the partial utilization of our U.S. Federal net operating loss carryforward and from a $15 million state income tax benefit on uncertain tax positions due to the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations in various states.

Table of Contents

A return to sustainable profitability in the U.S. is required before we would change our judgment regarding the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. It is reasonably possible that the continued improvements in our U.S. operations could result in the objective positive evidence necessary to warrant the reversal of all or a portion of the valuation allowance, up to approximately $550 million, as early as the second half of 2014. Until such time, the profits from our U.S. operations will be offset by the net operating loss carryforward resulting in a lower U.S. effective tax rate.

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Our current ratio was 2.0 to 1 and 1.9 to 1 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, cash of $244 million was used for operating activities. First quarter 2014 and 2013 cash from operations was affected by an expected and annually recurring seasonal first quarter increase in accounts receivable and inventories compared with December 31, 2013.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, net cash used for financing activities was $66 million and included $27 million for the payment of cash dividends and $39 million for the acquisition of Company common stock in open-market transactions to offset the dilutive impact of long-term stock awards granted in 2014. Net cash used for investing activities was $6 million, including $26 million for capital expenditures, partially offset by net proceeds from the sale of fixed assets of $5 million and net proceeds from the sale of short-term bank cash deposits of $15 million.

Our cash, cash investments and short-term bank deposits were $1.2 billion and $1.5 billion at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Our cash and cash investments consist of overnight interest bearing money market demand and time deposit accounts, money market mutual funds and government securities. Our short-term bank deposits consist of time deposits with maturities of 12 months or less.

Of the $1.2 billion and the $1.5 billion of cash, cash investments and short-term bank deposits held at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $601 million and $622 million, respectively, is held in foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed for our operations in the U.S., their repatriation into the U.S. may result in additional U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes. The amount of such taxes is dependent on the income tax laws and circumstances at the time of distribution.

On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a bank group, with an aggregate commitment of $1.25 billion and a maturity date of March 28, 2018. See Note H to the financial statements.

Based on the debt to total capitalization covenant in the Credit Agreement, at March 31, 2014, the Company had additional borrowing capacity, subject to availability, of up to $1.2 billion. Additionally, at March 31, 2014, the Company could absorb a reduction to shareholders’ equity of approximately $796 million and remain in compliance with the debt to total capitalization covenant.

Table of Contents

We were in compliance with all covenants and had no borrowings under our credit agreement at March 31, 2014.

We believe that our present cash balance, cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, bank borrowings and future financial market activities, are sufficient to fund our working capital and other investment needs.

OUTLOOK FOR THE COMPANY

We are making progress on our 2014 strategic priorities, which include growing share of our market-leading brands, accelerating customer-focused innovation pipeline, further penetrating international markets and driving operational leverage through our focus on cost containment. We believe that new home construction will show continued growth in 2014 and that repair and remodel activity will grow modestly, and big ticket items will continue to show improvement. We also expect the positive trend of the European economic recovery to continue.

We believe we are well positioned to grow our key brands and to gain market share in 2014. As we move through the year, we will continue to focus on the customer and execute against our priorities by improving our enterprise leverage, driving a high performance culture and focusing on continuous improvement in all we do.
