Restructuring Costs

Project Renewal

Project Renewal was launched in October 2011 to reduce the complexity of the organization and increase investment in growth platforms within the business. Under Project Renewal, the Company is simplifying and aligning its businesses around two key activities, Brand & Category Development and Market Execution & Delivery; simplifying and streamlining the supply chain and overhead and partnering functions to align with the new structure; and optimizing its selling and trade marketing functions.

Cumulative costs of Project Renewal are expected to be approximately $690.0 million to $725.0 million pretax, with cash costs of approximately $645.0 million to $675.0 million. Approximately 60% to 70% of the total costs are expected to be restructuring costs, a majority of which are expected to be employee-related cash costs, including severance, retirement and other termination benefits and costs. Projects associated with Project Renewal are expected to be complete by the end of 2017, and as a result, cash payments and savings will be realized in 2018 and later years.

The Company expects to incur up to $500.0 million of restructuring and other costs through 2020 to integrate the legacy Newell Rubbermaid and Jarden businesses (the “Jarden Integration”).

Costs associated with integration projects are expected to include employee-related cash costs, including severance, retirement and other termination benefits, and contract termination and other costs.
