Last update: May 6, 2025

Regulatory News:

Coty Inc. (NYSE: COTY) (Paris: COTY) ("Coty" or "the Company") today announced its results for the first nine months and third quarter of fiscal year 2025, ended March 31, 2025. While an uncertain market backdrop and FX headwinds led to declining Q3 sales, Coty has built robust plans to fuel operational and financial improvement in FY26 and beyond.

"Across economic cycles, beauty has remained resilient for decades. Even in this challenging landscape, we have significantly strengthened our strategic, operational, and financial fundamentals, driving margin expansion, stronger cash flow generation, and substantial deleveraging over the past four years,” said Sue Nabi, Coty's CEO. “While we are not satisfied with our net revenue performance, Coty’s strong fundamentals, coupled with our multi-pronged attack-plan for accelerating innovation, distribution and efficiencies, gives us confidence for the years ahead.

2025 remains a transition year for Coty. In Prestige, we are absorbing the triple-headwind of a slowing fragrance market, lapping a blockbuster innovation year, and depleting elevated retailer inventory, all of which was particularly acute in the U.S. We are laser focused on entering FY26 with alignment between sell-in and sell-out, to create a healthy baseline for growth. In Consumer Beauty, we have begun recalibrating our business in response to diverging market trends between cosmetics on the one hand and fragrances on the other hand, taking into account our relative strengths. Our goal is to strengthen our cosmetics business while making it more profitable, while in parallel over-driving our mass fragrances business where we have leadership and a strong margin profile.

Importantly, we are in control of our destiny and are already making the changes needed to address many of these challenges, with new leadership in the U.S. as the market has slowed in recent months, an updated organizational structure to drive faster changes and improved execution, and a robust cost savings program to protect our P&L and increase our firepower to accelerate our business."

The Q3 and fiscal year-to-date reported operating results included a $212.8 million asset impairment charge primarily in Consumer Beauty's color cosmetics business, reflecting the more challenged category trends in the U.S. and Europe.

Total debt at the end of the third quarter totaled $3,858.8 million, while financial net debt was $3,615.3 million. This drove the total debt to net loss ratio of 10.2x and the financial leverage ratio (net debt to adjusted EBITDA) to 3.2x, a reduction of 0.2x versus a year ago. Coty’s retained 25.8% Wella stake was valued at $1,000.0 million at quarter-end, supporting economic net debt of $2,615.3 million.

Continuing on the operating results, Sue Nabi, Coty's CEO, said:

"We are much more strongly positioned to navigate the current complex dynamics including tariffs and broader macroeconomic uncertainty, supported by the strategic, operational and financial fundamentals which we’ve significantly strengthened over the last four years, even in the context of the highly constrained P&L. These improved fundamentals coupled with our multi-pronged plan of attack for accelerating innovation, distribution and efficiencies, give us measured confidence that business trends should gradually improve over the course of FY26.

First, beauty has always been a resilient category across economic cycles, precisely because of its aspirational nature and its affordability for consumers looking for a personal indulgence during more difficult times. We expect this economic cycle will be no different, with fragrances - both prestige and mass - now positioned to be one of the better performing beauty categories as the "fragrance index" remains at play. In fact, even as the U.S. beauty market is now in a moderate decline, the fragrance category continues to grow solidly across price points.

Second, in our Prestige business, we have robust plans to accelerate growth in FY26 and beyond, including a blockbuster launch in 1H FY26, a blockbuster launch in 2H FY26, the extension of one of our major brands into the U.S., and plans to capture many scenting opportunities, including ultra premium fragrances, body mists and pen sprays.

Third, in Consumer Beauty, we have a strong program here as well for FY26 and beyond, including new innovations under key mass fragrance brands, building on the exceptionally strong adidas Vibes collection launched this year, launching new fragrance lines co-developed with key retailers, expanding into body mists and other adjacencies, introducing several new technologies under our cosmetics brands, all while over driving the winning channels such as e-com and TikTok shop.

Fourth, the newly announced next phase of our All in To Win program will boost our agility and scale, while unlocking an incremental $370M in fixed cost and productivity savings in FY26 & FY27. These savings coupled with the pricing power of our brands should be able to offset the impact from the announced tariffs. In fact, Coty remains relatively better positioned to weather the tariff headwinds given our geographically diverse sales base, manufacturing, and sourcing.

And finally, with our brand desirability and equity at the highest level in years, a pipeline of initiatives which is the strongest in 5 years, and our margins, profit, debt and leverage all significantly improved versus four years ago, we have the levers to protect our profitability and cash flow in a variety of macroeconomic scenarios. Coty remains well positioned to succeed and outperform in the coming years."

Strategic Updates:

The prestige fragrance category continued to grow, but moderated to a mid-single-digit percentage pace in Q3 on a comparable basis.
The global mass beauty category declined by a low-single-digit percentage in Q3, well-below the nearly 10% growth in last year's third quarter, which benefited from inflation-driven pricing.
Coty saw continued above market e-commerce sell-out in both Prestige and Consumer Beauty in Q3, which accounts for approximately 20% of the Company's sales.
Coty continued to make progress on its sustainability agenda. In the quarter, Coty announced improvements in its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings from MSCI to A from BB, and from Sustainalytics from 23.9 (medium risk) to 18.1 (low risk).
Coty announced the launch of the next phase of its transformative “All-in to Win” program, establishing a simplified and scaled operating model, reducing complexity across functions and markets, and sharpening its focus on top innovation and market priorities. The program is expected to generate annual fixed cost savings of approximately $130 million before taxes over two years. The combination of the fixed cost savings program and ongoing productivity savings of approximately $120 million annually is expected to deliver close to $500 million of savings between FY25 and FY27.

Pipeline for FY26 and Beyond:

Prestige Plans

Blockbuster launches in 1H and 2H FY26
Extension of one of our major brands into the U.S.
New brand launch on Amazon in the fall
More expansions into scenting opportunities, ultra-premium fragrances, body mists and pen sprays

Consumer Beauty Plans

New innovations under key mass fragrance brands, building on the exceptionally strong adidas Vibes collection launched this year
Launching new fragrance lines co-developed with key retailers
Expansions into body mists and other adjacencies
Introducing new cosmetics technologies, particularly in mascara and nail, with amplified consumer benefits
Driving activity through winning channels such as e-com and TikTok shop

Outlook

As part of FY25 being a transition year, both in Q3 and even more so in Q4, Coty is continuing to clean the baseline including assuring that retailer inventories are rightsized relative to the current demand trends, that the Company is rebalancing our resources within Consumer Beauty to overdrive our profit engines while scaling its cosmetics innovations, and that the business remains disciplined in its promotional activity to protect the health of its brands. All of these efforts are targeted to prepare for a gradual improvement in sales trends over the course of FY26, underpinned by multiple levers, including several major launches in both divisions, geographic and channel expansion, and incrementally higher pricing contribution. And at the same time, Coty is actively intervening in key areas of the business to set the Company on stronger footing into FY26 and beyond. This includes stepped up fixed cost savings and productivity savings to protect the P&L and fuel its brands, and making concrete changes in its organizational set-up and leadership in key markets like the U.S. to improve execution and sell-out trends.

The continuation of current category trends, coupled with Coty’s active interventions to clean up the baseline of the business to prepare for healthier FY26 business improvement, are driving Coty’s expectation for a high single digit LFL decline in sales in Q4. This translates to a 2% decline in FY25 LFL sales. On the reported revenue side, Coty sees a mid single digit decline in reported sales, which embeds a roughly 3% headwind from FX. The Company continues to expect continued expansion in FY25 gross margins to approximately 65%, consistent with its prior outlook. Coty remains on track to deliver EBITDA margin expansion at the lower end of its guidance range, with approximately 70 basis points of expansion to roughly 18.5%. This translates to roughly flattish EBITDA in FY25, which includes a low single digit headwind from FX. The benefit from both lower interest expense and a lower tax rate is supporting relatively stronger EPS delivery, with FY25 EPS expected to be $0.49-0.50, near the low end of its prior guidance range.

On the cash flow side, Coty now expects FY25 free cash flow of approximately $300M. Finally, Coty expects leverage at the end of FY25 to be relatively inline with its leverage at the end of Q3.

Third Quarter Business Review by Segment*

Prestige

In the first nine months of FY25, Prestige net revenue of $3,059.6 million, or 66% of the Company's total sales, were slightly positive year-over-year on a reported basis as growth in prestige fragrances was mostly offset by lower year-over-year net revenue in the prestige makeup and skincare categories. This reported net revenue growth also included a 1% negative impact from FX. Prestige net revenue grew 2% on a LFL basis fiscal year-to-date. In 3Q25, Prestige net revenue of $829.4 million or 64% of Coty sales decreased 4% on a reported basis and included a 1% headwind from FX. On a LFL basis, net revenue declined 2.5% in the quarter. 3Q25 reported net revenue was impacted by declines in prestige makeup sales, a moderating prestige fragrance category and elevated prior year comparisons related to major fragrance launches.

In the first nine months of FY25, the Prestige segment generated reported operating income of $542.5 million, up from $531.0 million in the prior year. Fiscal year-to-date reported operating margin was 17.7%, up 30 basis points year-over-year. Year-to-date adjusted operating income was $698.5 million, up from $646.6 million in the prior year, with an adjusted operating margin of 22.8%, up 160 basis points year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $781.7 million from $726.8 million in the prior year, with a margin of 25.5%, which expanded by 180 basis points year-over-year. In 3Q25, the Prestige segment generated reported operating income of $78.7 million, compared to $108.7 million in the prior year, resulting in reported operating margin of 9.5%, which declined by 300 basis points year-over-year. Adjusted operating income was $158.8 million in 3Q25, up from $147.3 million in the prior year, with an adjusted operating margin of 19.1%, which increased 210 basis points year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $185.9 million from $173.0 million in the prior year quarter resulting in an adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.4%, up 250 basis points year-over-year.

Consumer Beauty

In the first nine months of FY25, Consumer Beauty net revenue of $1,580.9 million, or 34% of the Company's total sales, declined 7% on a reported basis, which included a 4% negative impact from FX. During this period, Consumer Beauty reported net revenue declined in body care and color cosmetics, which was partially offset by growth in mass fragrance and mass skincare. Consumer Beauty year-to-date net revenue declined 3% on a LFL basis. In 3Q25, Consumer Beauty net revenue of $469.7 million, or 36% of Coty sales, decreased by 9% on a reported basis. The quarterly decline in reported net revenue was driven by lower revenue in color cosmetics and body care coupled with a negative impact from FX of 4%. These declines were partially offset by growth in mass fragrance and mass skin care. In both periods, reported and LFL sales were impacted by the continued weakening in the mass color cosmetics market globally, particularly in the U.S.

In the first nine months of FY25, the Consumer Beauty segment posted a reported operating loss of $111.4 million, compared to reported operating income of $79.0 million in the prior year.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Business Review by Region*

Americas

In the first nine months of FY25, Americas net revenue of $1,861.8 million, or 40% of Coty sales, decreased 6% on a reported basis, which included a 5% negative impact from FX. On a LFL basis, Americas net revenue decreased by 1% and included a 2% benefit from Argentina, which experienced hyperinflation. In 3Q25, Americas net revenue of $529.7 million decreased 10% on a reported basis, including a 4% negative impact from FX, with LFL declines of 6%. This reported and LFL sales decline reflected lower Prestige net revenues in the U.S. in large part due to elevated innovation comparisons in the prior year and a higher level of retailer stock entering the year, lower Consumer Beauty net revenue in the U.S. impacted by the market deterioration in the quarter, and lower body care net revenue in Brazil.

EMEA

In the first nine months of FY25, EMEA net revenue of $2,237.6 million, or 48% of Coty sales, increased 2% on a reported basis. On a LFL basis, EMEA net revenue increased by 3% in the first nine months. The year-to-date reported and LFL net revenue growth was supported by broad-based growth across most European markets, coupled with strong growth in Africa. In 3Q25, EMEA net revenue of $610.0 million decreased 3% on a reported basis reflecting by a 2% negative impact from FX coupled with by lower reported net revenue in Consumer Beauty and Prestige. On a LFL basis, EMEA net revenue decreased by 1% in the third quarter as growth in the Prestige segment was more than offset by lower net revenue in the Consumer Beauty segment.

Asia Pacific

In the first nine months of FY25, Asia Pacific net revenue of $541.1 million, or 12% of Coty sales, decreased 7% on both a reported basis and LFL basis driven by lower Prestige revenues, partially offset by growth in Consumer Beauty net revenues. Coty's lower year-over-year net revenues in mainland China and the regional Travel Retail channel continued to be impacted by the challenging market dynamics, which were partially offset by double-digit percentage growth in Asia excluding China. In 3Q25, Asia Pacific net revenue of $159.4 million, decreased 5% on a reported basis largely driven by declines in Prestige net revenue in the Chinese mainland and the Asia Travel Retail channel. On a LFL basis, Asia Pacific net revenue decreased 4% in the third quarter.

Noteworthy Company Developments

Other noteworthy company developments include:

On March 21, 2025, Coty announced the conclusion of its partnership with Kim Kardashian and the SKKN by Kim (“SKKN”) brand, with the closing of the sale of its 20% stake in the brand to SKIMS.
On April 16, 2025, Coty announced improvements in its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings from both MSCI and Sustainalytics.

On April 24, 2025, Coty announced the launch the next phase of its transformative “All-in to Win” program, establishing a simplified and scaled operating model, reducing complexity across functions and markets, and sharpening its focus on top innovation and market priorities. The program is expected to generate annual fixed cost savings of approximately $130 million before taxes over two years. The one-time cash costs associated with the program are expected to be approximately $80 million, roughly evenly split between FY26 and FY27. In tandem, Coty will continue its ongoing productivity program, with FY25 savings on track with its original target of approximately $120M across the P&L, and is committed to the same targeted productivity savings for FY26 and beyond, primarily in supply chain and procurement. The combination of the fixed cost savings program and ongoing productivity savings is expected to deliver close to $500 million of savings between FY25 and FY27.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company operates on a global basis, with the majority of net revenues generated outside of the U.S. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect results of operations. Therefore, to supplement financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, certain financial information is presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations to provide a framework for assessing how the underlying businesses performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations (“constant currency”). Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period, with the current period’s results calculated at the prior-year period’s rates. The Company calculates constant currency information by translating current and prior-period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. dollars into U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates. The constant currency calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific transactions denominated in a currency that is different to the functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company discloses the following constant currency financial measures: net revenues, organic like-for-like (LFL) net revenues, adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating income.

The Company presents period-over-period comparisons of net revenues on a constant currency basis as well as on an organic (LFL) basis. The Company believes that organic (LFL) better enables management and investors to analyze and compare the Company's net revenues performance from period to period. For the periods described in this release, the term “like-for-like” describes the Company's core operating performance, excluding the financial impact of (i) acquired brands or businesses in the current year period until we have twelve months of comparable financial results, (ii) the divested brands or businesses or early terminated brands, generally, in the prior year non-comparable periods, to maintain comparable financial results with the current fiscal year period and (iii) foreign currency exchange translations to the extent applicable. For a reconciliation of organic (LFL) period-over-period, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Net Revenues to Like-For-Like Net Revenues”.

The Company presents operating income, operating income margin, gross profit, gross margin, effective tax rate, net income, net income margin, net revenues, EBITDA, and EPS (diluted) on a non-GAAP basis and specifies that these measures are non-GAAP by using the term “adjusted” (collectively the Adjusted Performance Measures). The reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are shown in tables below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of the business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including companies in the beauty industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Adjusted operating income/Adjusted EBITDA from Coty Inc., (as well as adjusted operating income margin and adjusted EBITDA margin, which are calculated by dividing Adjusted operating income from Coty Inc. and Adjusted EBITDA from Coty Inc., respectively, by net revenues) exclude restructuring costs and business structure realignment programs, amortization, acquisition- and divestiture-related costs and acquisition accounting impacts, stock-based compensation, and asset impairment charges and other adjustments as described below. For adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, in addition to the preceding, we exclude the adjusted depreciation as defined below. We do not consider these items to be reflective of our core operating performance due to the variability of such items from period-to-period in terms of size, nature and significance. They are primarily incurred to realign our operating structure and integrate new acquisitions, and exclude divestitures, and fluctuate based on specific facts and circumstances. Additionally, Adjusted net income attributable to Coty Inc. and Adjusted net income attributable to Coty Inc. per common share are adjusted for certain interest and other (income) expense and deemed preferred stock dividends, as described below, and the related tax effects of each of the items used to derive Adjusted net income as such charges are not used by our management in assessing our operating performance period-to-period.

Adjusted Performance Measures reflect adjustments based on the following items:

Costs related to acquisition and divestiture activities: The Company has excluded acquisition- and divestiture-related costs and the accounting impacts such as those related to transaction costs and costs associated with the revaluation of acquired inventory in connection with business combinations because these costs are unique to each transaction. Additionally, for divestitures, the Company excludes write-offs of assets that are no longer recoverable and contract related costs due to the divestiture. The nature and amount of such costs vary significantly based on the size and timing of the acquisitions and divestitures, and the maturities of the businesses being acquired or divested. Also, the size, complexity and/or volume of past transactions, which often drives the magnitude of such expenses, may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/or volume of any future acquisitions or divestitures.
Restructuring and other business realignment costs: The Company has excluded the costs associated with restructuring and business structure realignment programs to allow for comparable financial results to historical operations and forward-looking guidance. In addition, the nature and amount of such charges vary significantly based on the size and timing of the programs. By excluding the referenced expenses from the non-GAAP financial measures, management is able to further evaluate the Company's ability to utilize existing assets and estimate their long-term value. Furthermore, our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of operating performance.
Asset impairment charges: The Company has excluded the impact of asset impairments as such non-cash amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
Amortization expense: The Company has excluded the impact of amortization of finite-lived intangible assets, as such non-cash amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance. Although we exclude amortization of intangible assets from our non-GAAP expenses, our management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets.
Gain on sale and early license termination: We have excluded the impact of gain on sale and early license termination as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the size of the sale and early license termination.
Costs related to market exit: We have excluded the impact of direct incremental costs related to our decision to wind down our business operations in Russia. We believe that these direct and incremental costs are inconsistent and infrequent in nature. Consequently, our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
Gains on sale of real estate: The Company has excluded the impact of Gains on sale of real estate as such amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the size of the sale. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
Stock-based compensation: Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we have excluded the effect of these expenses from the calculation of adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA. This is due to their primarily non-cash nature; in addition, the amount and timing of these expenses may be highly variable and unpredictable, which may negatively affect comparability between periods.
Depreciation and Adjusted depreciation: Our adjusted operating income excludes the impact of accelerated depreciation for certain restructuring projects that affect the expected useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment, as such charges vary significantly based on the size and timing of the programs. Further, we have excluded adjusted depreciation, which represents depreciation expense net of accelerated depreciation charges, from our adjusted EBITDA. Our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
Other (income) expense: We have excluded the impact of pension curtailment (gains) and losses and pension settlements as such events are triggered by our restructuring and other business realignment activities and the amount of such charges vary significantly based on the size and timing of the programs. Further, we have excluded the change in fair value of the investment in Wella, as well as expenses related to potential or actual sales transactions reducing equity investments, as our management believes these unrealized (gains) and losses do not reflect our underlying ongoing business, and the adjustment of such impact helps investors and others compare and analyze performance from period to period. Such transactions do not reflect our operating results and we have excluded the impact as our management believes that the adjustment of these items supplements the GAAP information with a measure that can be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance.
Noncontrolling interest: This adjustment represents the after-tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments included in Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests based on the relevant noncontrolling interest percentage.
Tax: This adjustment represents the impact of the tax effect of the pretax items excluded from Adjusted net income. The tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments is based on the tax rates related to the jurisdiction in which the adjusted items are received or incurred. Additionally, adjustments are made for the tax impact of any intra-entity transfer of assets and liabilities. Also, in connection with our market exit in Russia, we have adjusted for the release of tax charges previously taken related to certain direct incremental impacts of the decision.

The Company has provided a quantitative reconciliation of the difference between the non-GAAP financial measures and the financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted EPS (diluted) to EPS (diluted), and adjusted net revenues to net revenues, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported to Adjusted Results for the Consolidated Statements of Operations.” For reconciliations of: (i) adjusted EBITDA (and adjusted EBITDA margin) and adjusted operating income (and adjusted operating income margin) to net income (and net income margin), and (ii) adjusted segment operating income (and adjusted segment operating income margin) to segment operating income (and segment operating income margin), see the tables entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA” and "Reconciliations of Segment Reported Operating Income (Loss) to Segment Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) and Segment Adjusted EBITDA, respectively." For a reconciliation of adjusted effective tax rate to effective tax rate, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes and Effective Tax Rates to Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes and Adjusted Effective Tax Rates for Coty Inc.” For a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income margin to net income (and net income margin), see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Reported Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income.”

The Company also presents free cash flow, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA"), Financial Net Debt and Economic Net Debt. Management believes that these measures are useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for debt repayment and other strategic measures and provides them with the same measures that management uses as the basis for making resource allocation decisions. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures; adjusted EBITDA is defined as adjusted operating income, excluding adjusted depreciation and non-cash stock-based compensation. Net debt or Financial Net Debt (which the Company referred to as "net debt" in prior reporting periods) is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, and Economic Net Debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents less the value of the Wella Stake. For a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow,” for adjusted EBITDA, see the table entitled “Reconciliation of Adjusted Operating Income to Adjusted EBITDA” and for Financial Net Debt and Economic Net Debt, see the tables entitled “Reconciliation of Total Debt to Financial Net Debt and Economic Net Debt.”

We operate on a global basis, with the majority of our net revenues generated outside of the U.S. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect our results of operations. Therefore, to supplement financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, certain financial information is presented in “constant currency”, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange translations. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We calculate constant currency information by translating current and prior-period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. dollars into U.S. dollars using prior year foreign currency exchange rates. The constant currency calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific transactions denominated in a currency that is different to the functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate, or for the impacts of hyperinflation. The constant currency information we present may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

To the extent that the Company provides guidance, it does so only on a non-GAAP basis and does not provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including adjustments that could be made for restructuring, integration and acquisition-related expenses, amortization expenses, non-cash stock-based compensation, adjustments to inventory, and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.

	(a)	Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company's equity compensation plans, the convertible Series B Preferred Stock, and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. When calculating any potential dilutive effect of stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, restricted stock, RSUs and PRSUs, the Company uses the treasury method and the if-converted method for the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. The treasury method typically does not adjust the net income attributable to Coty Inc., while the if-converted method requires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $3.3, and to reverse the impact of fair market value losses/(gains) for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $60.0 and $7.1, respectively, if dilutive, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period. The if-converted method requires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends of $9,9, and to reverse the impact of fair market value losses/(gains) for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $188.9 and $6.9 respectively, if dilutive, for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period.
	(b)	For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, outstanding stock options with rights to purchase 3.4 million and 1.7 million shares of Common Stock were anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Series A Preferred Stock had no dilutive effect, as the exchange right expired on March 27, 2024. For the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, outstanding stock options and Series A Preferred Stock with purchase or conversion rights to purchase 3.5 million and 2.5 million weighted average shares of Common Stock, respectively, were anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.

Adjusted Income before income taxes	$	21.5		$	6.2		28.8	%	$	66.7		$	12.9		19.3	%

The adjusted effective tax rate was 28.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 19.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The difference is primarily due to the loss on forward repurchase contracts having a higher proportional impact in the current period.

The adjusted effective tax rate was 28.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 29.4% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024. The difference is primarily due to an expense of $24.3 recognized on the revaluation of the Company's deferred tax liabilities due to a tax rate increase enacted in Switzerland in the prior period.

^(a)See a description of adjustments under “Reconciliation of Reported Net Income to Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted EBITDA for Coty Inc.

^(b)The tax effects of each of the items included in adjusted income are calculated in a manner that results in a corresponding income tax expense/provision for adjusted income. In preparing the calculation, each adjustment to reported income is first analyzed to determine if the adjustment has an income tax consequence. The provision for taxes is then calculated based on the jurisdiction in which the adjusted items are incurred, multiplied by the respective statutory rates and offset by the increase or reversal of any valuation allowances commensurate with the non-GAAP measure of profitability. The total tax impact on adjustments in the current period includes a tax benefit of $10.0 on the resolution of uncertain tax positions associated with the Company’s exit from Russia in fiscal 2022.

^(c) The amount represents the unrealized (gain) loss recognized for the change in the fair value of the investment in Wella.

^(d)For the three months ended March 31, 2025, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits, the amortization of basis differences in certain equity method investments, and net loss on the sale of an equity investment. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, this primarily represents adjustments for equity loss from KKW.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2025, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits, the amortization of basis differences in certain equity method investments, and net loss on the sale of an equity investment. For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, this primarily represents divestiture-related costs related to our equity investments and loss from our equity investment in KKW.

(c)	Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities, including awards under the Company's equity compensation plans, the convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts, if applicable. When calculating any potential dilutive effect of stock options, Series A Preferred Stock, restricted stock, PRSUs and RSUs, the Company uses the treasury method and the if-converted method for the Convertible Series B Preferred Stock and the Forward Repurchase Contracts. The treasury method typically does not adjust the net income attributable to Coty Inc. while the if-converted method requires an adjustment to reverse the impact of the preferred stock dividends and the impact of fair market value (gains)/losses for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash, if dilutive, on net income applicable to common stockholders during the period.

(e)	For the three months ended March 31, 2025, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits, the amortization of basis differences in certain equity method investments, and net loss on the sale of an equity investment. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, this primarily represents adjustments for equity loss from KKW.
	For the nine months ended March 31, 2025, this primarily represents recovery of previously written-off non-income tax credits, the amortization of basis differences in certain equity method investments, and net loss on the sale of an equity investment. For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, this primarily represents divestiture-related costs related to our equity investments and loss from equity investment in KKW.
(f)	Adjusted Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of the Forward Repurchase Contracts were included in the computation of adjusted diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, we did not reverse the impact of the fair market value losses/(gains) for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $60.0 and $7.1, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Convertible Series B Preferred Stock (23.7 million weighted average dilutive shares) was anti-dilutive. Accordingly, we excluded these shares from the diluted shares and did not adjust the earnings for the related dividend of $3.3.
	Adjusted Diluted EPS is adjusted by the effect of dilutive securities. For the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no dilutive shares of the Forward Repurchase Contracts were included in the computation of adjusted diluted EPS as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, we did not reverse the impact of the fair market value losses/(gains) for contracts with the option to settle in shares or cash of $188.9 and $6.9, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, convertible Series B Preferred Stock (23.7 million weighted average dilutive shares) were anti-dilutive. Accordingly, we excluded these shares from the diluted shares and did not adjust the earnings for the related dividend of $9.9.
