Notes

The Company was unable to provide a full reconciliation of fiscal 2027 outlook to GAAP measures without unreasonable effort due to difficulty in predicting certain adjustment items. Fiscal 2026 results included $45 million of insurance recoveries related to the June 2025 cybersecurity incident, partially offset by $24 million of incident-related costs. The adjusted effective tax rate for fiscal 2027 Adjusted EPS guidance reflects 27%.
