<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>The press release attached as Exhibit
99 contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures provide information that is useful to the users of its financial
information regarding the Corporation&#146;s financial condition and results of
operations. Additionally, the Corporation uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate its
past performance, reportable business segments, and prospects for future performance. The
Corporation believes it is appropriate to present this non-GAAP financial information for
the following reasons: </FONT></P>

The Corporation provides certain measures of operating results, net earnings, and earnings

Corporation believes that this information is helpful in understanding period-over-period
operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportional
positive or negative impact on the Corporation&#146;s results of operations in any
particular period. The Corporation also utilizes certain of these measures to compensate

In addition to measuring its cash flow generation and usage based upon operating,
investing, and financing activities classifications established under accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, the Corporation also measures its free
cash flow. Free cash flow is a measure commonly employed by credit providers, and the
Corporation believes free cash flow provides supplemental information about the
Corporation&#146;s ability to fund its working capital needs and capital expenditures, and
to pay interest and service debt. The Corporation defines free cash flow as cash flow from
operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus proceeds from the disposal of assets
(excluding proceeds from business sales). The Corporation also provides certain measures
of free cash flow adjusted to exclude certain items that either positively or negatively
impact cash flow from operating activities. The Corporation believes that this information
is helpful in understanding period-over-period cash flow separate and apart from items
that may, or could, have a disproportional positive or negative impact on the
Corporation&#146;s cash flow in any particular period. </FONT></TD>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>Towson, MD &#150; The Black &amp;
Decker Corporation (NYSE: BDK) today announced that net earnings from continuing
operations for the first quarter of 2006 were $113.1 million or $1.45 per diluted share.
This represents an 11% increase over $1.31 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2005,
excluding a favorable insurance settlement. Reported net earnings from continuing
operations were $1.74 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2005. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sales
from continuing operations increased 1% for the quarter to a record $1.5 billion,
following a 15% organic sales increase in the first quarter of 2005. The March acquisition
of Vector Products, Inc. contributed 1% to sales in the quarter, effectively offsetting
the impact of the FLEX business divestiture in late 2005. Foreign currency translation had
a negative 2% impact on sales. </FONT></P>

D. Archibald, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, &#147;Black &amp; Decker
increased sales and operating income in all three business segments, despite commodity
cost inflation and a particularly challenging comparison to prior-year results. We
continue to benefit from cost reduction efforts and effective use of our strong free cash
flow. By beating our sales target and increasing operating margin 60 basis points, we had
solid growth in operating profits and exceeded our EPS guidance. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Sales
in the Power Tools and Accessories segment rose 2% for the quarter. Outstanding sales in
Europe and Latin America enabled the segment to post an increase on top of 17% organic
sales growth in the same period of 2005. European sales grew solidly, despite the
divestiture of FLEX, due to the strength of DEWALT&reg; tools and lawn and garden products
such as the new Alligator&#153; lopper. The U.S. Industrial Products Group, which drove
the segment&#146;s exceptional performance in 2005, increased sales slightly this quarter.
This group benefited from DEWALT&#146;s continued success, particularly in the independent
channel, and additional listings of Porter-Cable and Delta woodworking tools. Sales in the
U.S. Consumer Products Group decreased modestly, as lower sales in the pressure washer and
lawn and garden lines were nearly offset by gains in Black &amp; Decker&reg; consumer
tools and the acquisition of Vector. Operating margin for the Power Tools and Accessories
segment increased 30 basis points to 12.3% due to international margin improvements. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Sales
in the Hardware and Home Improvement segment increased 3% for the quarter. Sales in the
lockset business grew at a mid single-digit rate, driven by strong demand for Kwikset
products. The Price Pfister faucet business, which gained significant retail listings in
the first quarter of 2005, grew sales slightly this quarter. Operating margin improved to
13.3% in this segment, with cost savings from manufacturing rationalization outweighing
the impact of raw material inflation. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;The
Fastening and Assembly Systems segment increased sales 2% for the quarter, due to solid
growth in the international automotive divisions. Sales in the North American automotive
division were flat, reflecting increased market penetration in a challenging business
environment. Operating margin was 14.3%, and operating profit increased slightly for the
quarter. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Free
cash flow was negative $23 million for the quarter, versus a positive $40 million in the
prior year. This comparison was affected by an income tax payment in 2006 related to
repatriation of foreign earnings and by a large insurance settlement received in 2005.
Excluding these one-time items, free cash flow increased more than $30 million versus the
prior year. We continued to deploy our cash to create value for our shareholders during
the quarter by acquiring Vector, repurchasing 1.8 million shares of stock, and increasing
our dividend 36%. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Looking
ahead, we continue to expect solid growth in 2006. We remain confident that DEWALT&#146;s
36-volt line of lithium-ion tools, which arrives in stores later this quarter, will
reinforce our cordless leadership position. Combined with the Vector acquisition, this
launch and other new products should help us grow sales at a mid single-digit rate for the
second quarter and full year. Although raw material prices have continued to rise,
particularly for the Hardware and Home Improvement segment, we still plan to modestly
improve operating margins for the year. Therefore, we expect that our higher-than-expected
performance in the first quarter will read through to the full year, resulting in diluted
EPS from continuing operations in the range of $7.30-to-$7.45. For the second quarter, we
expect diluted EPS from continuing operations in the range of $1.95-to-$2.00. Excluding
non-recurring items in 2005, our guidance represents EPS growth of 8% to 11% for the full
year and 6% to 9% for the second quarter. In addition, we remain committed to converting
at least 90% of full-year net earnings to free cash flow. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;Black
&amp; Decker extended its track record of outstanding financial performance this quarter.
This success validates many of the changes we have made over the past five years. By
achieving more balanced profitability across the company, we were able to capitalize on
our international sales growth. Through our focus on cash flow and stewardship of capital,
we expanded solid operating income growth into outstanding earnings per share. Since 2001,
we have reduced fixed assets while growing sales more than 50%, reflecting a shift to a
more variable cost model that reduces our risk. These structural improvements, combined
with our core strengths&#151;brands, innovation, end-user focus, and strong customer
relationships&#151;enable us to grow earnings consistently. By executing our proven
strategy, we believe we can continue to deliver superior returns to our
shareholders.&#148; </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
more fully described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 8 of the Corporation&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2005, the Corporation was required to adopt Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS No. 123R), <I>Share-Based Payment</I>, effective
January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R requires the Corporation to expense share-based payments,
including employee stock options, based on their fair value. SFAS No. 123R permits public
companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods. As previously disclosed, the
Corporation anticipated adopting SFAS No. 123R under the modified retrospective method.
The modified retrospective method permits entities to restate all prior periods presented
based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS No. 123, <I>Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation</I>, for purposes of pro forma disclosures. As permitted by SFAS
No. 123, the Corporation previously accounted for share-based payments to employees under
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, <I>Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees</I>, using the intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognized no
compensation costs for employee stock options. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Corporation adopted SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006, using the modified
retrospective method of adoption. All prior periods were adjusted to give effect to the
fair-value-based method of accounting for awards granted on or after January 1, 1996.
Accordingly, the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Supplemental Information about
Business Segments for the three months ended April 3, 2005, and the Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of December 31, 2005, have been adjusted to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 123R
for share-based payments under the modified retrospective method. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SFAS
No. 123R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation
cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as
previously presented. Upon adoption in 2006, the Corporation adjusted its prior
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to reflect this classification. The
Corporation&#146;s computation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure within the
meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, for the
three months ended April 3, 2005, has been adjusted to reflect this adjustment to
&#147;Cash flow from operating activities&#148;. </FONT></P>

Corporation operates in three reportable business segments: Power Tools and Accessories,
Hardware and Home Improvement, and Fastening and Assembly Systems. The Power Tools and
Accessories segment has worldwide responsibility for the manufacture and sale of consumer
and professional power tools and accessories, electric cleaning and lighting products, and
lawn and garden tools, as well as for product service. In addition, the Power Tools and
Accessories segment has responsibility for the sale of security hardware to customers in
Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America; for the sale of plumbing
products to customers outside the United States and Canada; and for sales of household
products. On March 1, 2006, the Corporation acquired Vector Products, Inc. This acquired
business is included in the Power Tools and Accessories segment. The Hardware and Home
Improvement segment has worldwide responsibility for the manufacture and sale of security
hardware (except for the sale of security hardware in Mexico, Central America, the
Caribbean, and South America). The Hardware and Home Improvement segment also has
responsibility for the manufacture of plumbing products and for the sale of plumbing
products to customers in the United States and Canada. The Fastening and Assembly Systems
segment has worldwide responsibility for the manufacture and sale of fastening and
assembly systems. </FONT></P>

businesses are treated as discontinued operations in the Corporation&#146;s consolidated
financial statements. Sales, segment profit, depreciation and amortization, and capital
expenditures set forth in the preceding tables exclude the results of the discontinued
operations. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
profitability measure employed by the Corporation and its chief operating decision maker
for making decisions about allocating resources to segments and assessing segment
performance is segment profit (for the Corporation on a consolidated basis, operating
income). In general, segments follow the same accounting policies as those described in
Note&nbsp;1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the
Corporation&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005,
except with respect to foreign currency translation and except as further indicated below.
The financial statements of a segment&#146;s operating units located outside of the United
States, except those units operating in highly inflationary economies, are generally
measured using the local currency as the functional currency. For these units located
outside of the United States, segment assets and elements of segment profit are translated
using budgeted rates of exchange. Budgeted rates of exchange are established annually and,
once established, all prior period segment data is restated to reflect the current
year&#146;s budgeted rates of exchange. The amounts included in the preceding table under
the captions &#147;Reportable Business Segments&#148; and &#147;Corporate, Adjustments,
&amp; Eliminations&#148; are reflected at the Corporation&#146;s budgeted rates of
exchange for 2006. The amounts included in the preceding table under the caption
&#147;Currency Translation Adjustments&#148; represent the difference between consolidated
amounts determined using those budgeted rates of exchange and those determined based upon
the rates of exchange applicable under accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Segment
profit excludes interest income and expense, non-operating income and expense, adjustments
to eliminate intercompany profit in inventory, and income tax expense. In determining
segment profit, expenses relating to pension and other postretirement benefits are based
solely upon estimated service costs. Corporate expenses, as well as certain centrally
managed expenses, including expenses related to share-based compensation, are allocated to
each reportable segment based upon budgeted amounts. While sales and transfers between
segments are accounted for at cost plus a reasonable profit, the effects of intersegment
sales are excluded from the computation of segment profit. Intercompany profit in
inventory is excluded from segment assets and is recognized as a reduction of cost of
goods sold by the selling segment when the related inventory is sold to an unaffiliated
customer. Because the Corporation compensates the management of its various businesses on,
among other factors, segment profit, the Corporation may elect to record certain
segment-related expense items of an unusual or non-recurring nature in consolidation
rather than reflect such items in segment profit. In addition, certain segment-related
items of income or expense may be recorded in consolidation in one period and transferred
to the various segments in a later period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This press release includes a
statement that free cash flow, excluding one-time items, for the three months ended April
2, 2006 as compared to the three months ended April 3, 2005, increased by more than $30
million. That increase excludes any tax payments that occurred in the first quarter of
2006 associated with repatriating foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of
2004 (AJCA) and the $55 million of proceeds from the insurance settlement that occurred in
the first quarter of 2005. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This press release includes a
forward-looking statement with respect to management&#146;s commitment to convert at least
90% of full-year net earnings to free cash flow. That conversion ratio excludes from free
cash flow any tax payments associated with repatriating foreign earnings under the AJCA. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This
press release includes a forward-looking statement with respect to management&#146;s
expectation that the Corporation&#146;s diluted earnings per share from continuing
operations, excluding non-recurring items in 2005, would grow 8% to 11% for the full year
2006. In determining the 8% to 11% increase, earnings per share from continuing operations
for 2005 excludes the effect of the favorable $55 million pre-tax ($35.8 million
after-tax) insurance settlement that occurred in the first quarter and excludes the $51.2
million incremental tax expense to repatriate foreign earnings under the AJCA that
occurred in the fourth quarter. </FONT></P>
