NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

A. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position at June 30, 2024, our results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States of America. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures regarding an entity's reportable segments, particularly regarding significant segment expenses, as well as information relating to the chief operating decision maker. We adopted this standard on a retrospective basis for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and will adopt this standard for interim periods beginning in 2025. The adoption of this guidance will modify our annual disclosures in 2024, but will not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. We adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2024. The adoption of this new standard did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023. We also adopted the amendment on rollforward information, which became effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures and will modify our annual disclosures for the rollforward information in 2024, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires additional income tax disclosures, particularly regarding the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but will not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

B. ACQUISITIONS

In the third quarter of 2023, we acquired all of the share capital of Sauna360 Group Oy (“Sauna360”) for approximately €124 million ($136 million), net of cash acquired. Sauna360 has a portfolio of products that includes traditional, infrared, and wood-burning saunas as well as steam showers. The business is included within the Plumbing Products segment. In connection with this acquisition, we recognized $22 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets, which is related to trademarks, and $45 million of definite-lived intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average amortization period of 16 years. We also recognized $60 million of goodwill, which is not tax deductible, and is related primarily to the expected synergies from combining the operations into our business. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we updated the allocation of the purchase price to certain identifiable assets and liabilities based on analysis of information as of the acquisition date, which resulted in a $1 million decrease to goodwill. The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is based on analysis of information as of the acquisition date that was available through June 30, 2024, and will be updated through the measurement period, if necessary.
In the first quarter of 2021, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary acquired a 75.1 percent equity interest in Easy Sanitary Solutions B.V. ("ESS"). The remaining 24.9 percent equity interest in ESS was subject to a call and put option that was exercisable by Hansgrohe SE or the sellers, respectively, any time after December 31, 2023. The redemption value of the call and put option was the same and based on a floating EBITDA value. The call and put options were determined to be embedded within the redeemable noncontrolling interest and were recorded as temporary equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We elected to adjust the redeemable noncontrolling interest to its full redemption amount directly into retained deficit.
In the first quarter of 2024, the sellers exercised their put option to sell the remaining 24.9 percent equity interest in ESS for €13 million ($15 million). The transaction was accounted for as an equity purchase transaction.

G. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. Our current payment terms with a majority of our suppliers generally range from 45 to 90 days. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.
All outstanding payments owed under the program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $53 million at both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $21 million and $28 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

H. DEBT

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders.
The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility available to us and one of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, European euros, British pounds sterling and certain other currencies for revolving credit loans, swingline loans and letters of credit. Borrowings under the revolving credit loans denominated in any agreed upon currency other than U.S. dollars are limited to the equivalent of $500 million. We can also borrow swingline loans up to $125 million and obtain letters of credit of up to $25 million. Outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement reduce our borrowing capacity and we had no outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement at June 30, 2024.
The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0.
In order for us to borrow under the 2022 Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in our covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants described above, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, and requirements relating to legal compliance, maintenance of our properties and insurance) and our representations and warranties in the 2022 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, 2021, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance, and no material tax deficiency). We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2024.
On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.
On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contained no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023, and was fully repaid at December 31, 2023.
Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of our short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues, which are Level 1 inputs. At both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt was approximately $2.6 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.0 billion.

Our effective tax rate was 26 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and 24 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was favorably impacted by $16 million and $12 million of income tax benefits, respectively. For both periods, the income tax benefits primarily resulted from stock-based compensation and a reduction in the liability for uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of statutes of limitation.

At June 30, 2024, we had approximately $1.4 billion remaining under the 2022 authorization.

L. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation.    We are involved in claims and litigation, including class actions, mass torts and regulatory proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. The types of matters may include, among others: advertising, competition, contract, data privacy, employment, environmental, insurance coverage, intellectual property, personal injury, product compliance, product liability, securities and warranty. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters. We are also subject to product safety regulations, product recalls and direct claims for product liabilities. We believe the likelihood that the outcome of these claims, litigation and product safety matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could, in the future, incur judgments or penalties, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Due to changing market conditions, we are experiencing, and may continue to experience, lower market demand for our products. We have been experiencing, and may continue to experience, elevated commodity and other input costs, as well as employee-related cost inflation. We aim to offset the potential unfavorable impact of our costs and lower demand for our products with productivity improvements, pricing, and other initiatives.
We continue to execute our strategies of leveraging our strong brand portfolio, our industry-leading positions and the Masco Operating System, our methodology to drive growth and productivity, to create long-term shareholder value. We remain confident in the fundamentals of our business and long-term strategy. We believe that our strong financial position and cash flow generation, together with our investments in our industry-leading branded building products, our continued focus on innovation and customer service and disciplined capital allocation, will allow us to drive long-term growth and create value for our shareholders.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 AND THE FIRST SIX MONTHS 2023

Consolidated Results of Operations

We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). 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 under GAAP. Within the tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes.
The following discussion of consolidated results of operations refers to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods of 2023.

NET SALES

Below is a summary of our net sales, in millions, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Our net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $2,091 million, which decreased two percent compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Excluding acquisitions and the effect of currency translation, net sales decreased two percent. Our net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased primarily due to lower sales volume driven by paints and other coating products which decreased sales by two percent and unfavorable sales mix of plumbing products which decreased sales by one percent.
Our net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $4,017 million, which decreased two percent compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. Excluding acquisitions and the effect of currency translation, net sales decreased three percent. Our net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased primarily due to lower sales volume across the entire company which decreased sales by three percent and unfavorable sales mix of plumbing products which decreased sales by one percent. These amounts were partially offset by higher net selling prices which increased sales by one percent, driven by plumbing products.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS DISCUSSION

Plumbing Products
Sales
Net sales in the Plumbing Products segment increased two percent for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and remained flat for the six months ended June 30, 2024. In local currencies (including sales in currencies outside their respective functional currencies), net sales increased three percent and one percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Higher net selling prices increased sales by two percent and the acquisition of Sauna360 Group Oy ("Sauna360") increased sales by two percent for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, these amounts were partially offset by unfavorable sales mix which decreased sales by one percent. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, these amounts were mostly offset by lower sales volume which decreased sales by three percent and unfavorable sales mix which decreased sales by one percent.
Operating Results
Operating profit in the Plumbing Products segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was positively impacted by higher net selling prices and cost savings initiatives. These amounts were partially offset by lower sales volume for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and unfavorable sales mix and increased employee-related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Decorative Architectural Products
Sales
Net sales in the Decorative Architectural Products segment decreased seven percent and five percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These decreases were due primarily to lower sales volume for paints and other coating products and builders' hardware products and lower net selling prices for paints and other coating products for both periods.
Operating Results
Operating profit in the Decorative Architectural Products segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was negatively impacted by lower net selling prices and lower sales volume, partially offset by lower commodity costs and cost savings initiatives. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, operating profit was also positively impacted by lower marketing costs.

GEOGRAPHIC AREA RESULTS DISCUSSION

North America
Sales
North America net sales decreased one percent and two percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Lower sales volume decreased sales by two percent and three percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and unfavorable sales mix decreased sales by one percent for both periods. This was partially offset by the acquisition of Sauna360 which increased sales by one percent for both periods.
Operating Results
North America operating profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was positively impacted by cost saving initiatives and lower commodity costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, these amounts were partially offset by lower sales volume, increased employee-related costs and unfavorable sales mix.




19

In local currencies (including sales in currencies outside their respective functional currencies), net sales decreased one percent and three percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Lower sales volume decreased sales by two percent for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and unfavorable sales mix decreased sales by two percent and one percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These amounts were partially offset by higher net selling prices which increased sales by one percent for both periods.
Operating Results
International operating profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was negatively impacted by unfavorable sales mix and unfavorable foreign currency translation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, operating profit was also negatively impacted by lower sales volume. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, these amounts were partially offset by cost saving initiatives and increased net selling prices.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Capital Structure
We had cash and cash investments of approximately $398 million and $634 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Our cash and cash investments consist of overnight interest bearing money market demand accounts, time deposit accounts, and money market mutual funds containing government securities and treasury obligations. While we attempt to diversify these investments in a prudent manner to minimize risk, it is possible that future changes in the financial markets could affect the security or availability of these investments. Of the cash and cash investments we held at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $284 million and $323 million, respectively, was held in our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed for our operations in the U.S., their repatriation into the U.S. would not result in significant additional U.S. income tax or foreign withholding tax, as we have recorded such taxes on substantially all undistributed foreign earnings, except for those that are legally restricted.
Our current ratio was 1.8 to 1 and 1.7 to 1 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
We believe that our present cash balance and cash flows from operations, and borrowing availability under our revolving credit agreement, are sufficient to fund our near-term working capital and other investment needs. We believe that our longer-term working capital and other general corporate requirements will be satisfied through cash flows from operations and, to the extent necessary, from bank borrowings and future financial market activities. However, due to the changing market conditions and its impact on our customers and suppliers, we are unable to fully estimate the extent of the impact that the changing market conditions may have on our future financial condition.
Credit Agreement
On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027.
Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders. See Note H to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0. We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2024.


20



364-day Term Loan
On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.
Other Liquidity and Capital Resource Activities
On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contained no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023, and was fully repaid at December 31, 2023.
As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our cash flow and related liquidity, we work with suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, including extending payment terms. We also facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $53 million at both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $21 million and $28 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. A downgrade in our credit rating or changes in the financial markets could limit the financial institutions’ willingness to commit funds to, and participate in, the program. We do not believe such risk would have a material impact on our working capital or cash flows, as substantially all of our payments are made outside of the program.
Share Repurchases
Effective October 20, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, for retirement, of up to $2.0 billion of shares of our common stock, exclusive of excise tax, in open-market transactions or otherwise. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased and retired approximately 4.1 million shares of our common stock (including 0.4 million shares to offset the dilutive impact of restricted stock units granted in the six months ended June 30, 2024) for approximately $292 million, inclusive of excise tax of $2 million. At June 30, 2024, we had approximately $1.4 billion remaining under the 2022 authorization.
Cash Flows
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash provided by operations was $252 million, primarily driven by operating profit, partially offset by changes in working capital.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash used for financing activities was $404 million, primarily due to $290 million for the repurchase and retirement of our common stock, $128 million for the payment of cash dividends, $33 million for employee withholding taxes paid on stock-based compensation, $15 million for the purchase of the remaining equity interest in Easy Sanitary Solutions B.V., and $12 million for dividends paid to noncontrolling interest. These uses of cash were partially offset by $75 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net cash used for investing activities was $80 million, primarily driven by $74 million of capital expenditures.

Exhibit 10.a
MASCO CORPORATION
NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS EQUITY PROGRAM
UNDER THE 2024 LONG TERM STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
Non-employee directors of Masco Corporation (the “Company”) are eligible to receive an annual retainer, of which a portion is paid in cash and the remainder is paid in the form of a Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) Award granted pursuant to this Masco Corporation Non-Employee Directors Equity Program (the “Program”). Under this Program, an “Eligible Director” is any director of the Company who is not an employee of the Company and who receives a fee for services as a director. RSUs are bookkeeping entries that give the Eligible Director the right to receive shares of Company common stock (“Shares”) upon vesting. Terms not defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Company’s 2024 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”).

Section 1. Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Award
(a)Eligibility for Award. On the date of each of the Company’s annual stockholders’ meetings (the “Annual Meeting”), each person who is or becomes an Eligible Director at such meeting and whose service on the Board is expected to continue following such meeting shall be granted an RSU Award. The grant entitles an Eligible Director to receive Shares on a one-to-one RSU-to-Share basis upon vesting as set forth in the vesting schedule in the Award Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Award Agreement.
(b)(i)  Amount of Award.  The number of RSUs awarded shall be determined by the Board of Directors from time to time (the “Equity Retainer”). If an Eligible Director begins serving as a director other than as of the date of an Annual Meeting, the RSU Award granted hereunder shall be granted at the meeting of the Board of Directors that takes place on or after the date such Eligible Director is first elected or appointed to the Board, and such Award shall be pro-rated to reflect the partial service provided by such Eligible Director in the period between Annual Meetings.
(ii) Adjustment to Amount or Terms of Award. The Board shall have sole discretion to adjust the amount of the Equity Retainer to be paid in the form of RSUs and the terms of any such RSU Award. Except as the Board may otherwise determine, any increase or decrease in an Eligible Director’s Annual Retainer during a period with respect to which such Eligible Director has already been granted an RSU Award shall be implemented by increasing or decreasing the cash portion of such Eligible Director’s annual retainer.
(iii) Limitation on Equity Retainer. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the maximum Equity Retainer granted to an Eligible



Director during the annual director compensation period (as defined in the Plan) shall not exceed the limit set forth in Section 4(b)(ii) of the Plan.
(c)Vesting. Subject to the provisions of Section 2 below, each RSU Award granted hereunder shall vest with respect to one-third of the RSUs (disregarding fractional RSUs) on May 15 of each of the three consecutive calendar years following the year in which such Award is granted; provided, however, that if an Award is granted between the Annual Meeting and December 31 pursuant to Section 1(b)(i), the first vesting shall occur on May 15 of the second calendar year following the year in which such Award is granted. Shares issued upon vesting will be registered in the Eligible Director’s name in book-entry form. RSUs that do not vest into Shares will be forfeited.
(d)Effective Grant Date. The price of the Shares used in determining the number of RSUs granted hereunder shall be the fair market value of the Shares as determined by the Board on the effective grant date of such Award (the “Grant Date”); provided that if an Award granted in accordance with Section 1(a) of this Program falls within seven days prior to the release of the Company’s quarterly or annual financial results, then the effective grant date for such Award will be the first trading day after the date on which such financial results are released.
(e)Dividend Equivalents. Promptly after each date on which the RSUs vest, the Company will pay to the Eligible Director an amount in cash (subject to any applicable taxes or charges) equal to the sum of the regular quarterly per share cash dividends, if any, paid by the Company to holders of record on or after the Grant Date (the “Dividend Equivalent”) multiplied by the number of RSUs then vesting in Shares. If, prior to the final vesting date of an Award hereunder (the “Final Vesting Date”), there is a record date for the Company’s regularly quarterly cash dividend that will be payable after the Final Vesting Date, then as soon as practicable after the later of the date the RSUs are settled in Shares or the date the declared dividend is paid to shareholders generally, the Company shall pay the Eligible Director the Dividend Equivalent on the RSUs that were held by such Eligible Director on such record date, calculated as provided above. Except for the payment of Dividend Equivalents, an Eligible Director shall have no right to receive any payment on account of any dividend or other distribution on the underlying Shares.
(f)No Voting or Other Rights. Until the RSUs vest and are settled as Shares, an Eligible Director shall not have voting rights with respect to the RSUs or the underlying Shares, and an Eligible Director will not be able to sell, encumber or otherwise transfer the RSUs or the underlying Shares except in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
Section 2. Termination of Services as a Director
(a)Retirement. If an Eligible Director’s term of service as a director is terminated by reason of retirement on or after normal retirement age for a director as



set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (“Retirement”), any RSU Award held by such Eligible Director shall continue to vest in the same manner as if such Eligible Director’s term of service had not terminated.
(b)Death or Disability. If an Eligible Director’s term of service as a director is terminated by reason of death or permanent and total disability or, if following termination or Retirement as a director, a former director dies while continuing to have rights under any RSU Awards, upon such death or termination by reason of permanent and total disability, any such RSUs shall immediately vest and be settled in Shares.
(c)Forfeiture.
(i) If an Eligible Director’s term of service as a director terminates for any reason other than as a result of death, permanent and total disability or Retirement, all RSUs held by such Eligible Director that remain subject to restrictions shall be forfeited and transferred back to the Company on the date of such termination; provided, however, that any RSUs that remain subject to restrictions but that would have vested on May 15 following such Eligible Director’s termination shall vest pro rata on the date of termination based upon that portion of the year between annual vesting dates in which the termination occurred during which such Eligible Director served as a director.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, following termination of service as a director for any reason other than death (including due to Retirement), a former director continues to hold RSUs, the Board, in its sole judgment, may cause all RSUs to be forfeited and transferred back to the Company concurrently with, or at any time following, such termination if the Board determines that such former director has engaged in any activity detrimental to the interests of the Company, a subsidiary or an affiliated company. In such circumstances, the Board may also determine not to pay any Dividend Equivalent that has accrued and has not been paid with respect to any RSUs.
(d)No Acceleration. The provisions of Section 6(d)(v) of the Plan shall not apply to RSU Awards granted to Eligible Directors.
Section 3. Section 409 of the Internal Revenue Code

    This Program and any Award Agreement hereunder are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A of the Code”), and the provisions of this Award Agreement and the Program shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. If any term or condition of this Award Agreement or any provision of the Program would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the term or condition or provision shall be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. Notwithstanding anything in the Program to the contrary, if the Board considers an Eligible Director to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code at the



time of such Eligible Director’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code), and any amount hereunder is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, any distribution of such amount that otherwise would be made to such Eligible Director with respect to an Award as a result of such “separation from service” shall not be made until the date that is six months after such “separation from service,” except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in such Eligible Director incurring interest or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code. The right to any “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations) shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. To the extent an Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), such Eligible Director’s right to such series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this Program or any Award Agreement hereunder is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by an Eligible Director on account of noncompliance with Section 409A of the Code.

Section 4. Termination, Modification or Suspension
The Board may terminate, modify or suspend the Program at any time as it may deem advisable.
Section 5. Governing Law
    The Program shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with Michigan law.

Annex A


Masco Corporation

Terms and Conditions of
Restricted Stock Units for Non-Employee Directors
under the
Masco Corporation 2024 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan



    Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) are bookkeeping entries that give you the right to receive Shares on a one-for-one RSU-to-Share basis upon vesting. Shares issued upon vesting will be registered in your name in book-entry form. RSUs that do not vest into Shares will be forfeited. Until the RSUs vest and are settled in Shares, you will not have voting rights with respect to the RSUs or the underlying Shares, and you will not be able to sell, encumber or otherwise transfer the RSUs or the underlying Shares except in accordance with the Company’s 2024 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Terms not defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Non-Employee Directors Equity Program (the “Program”) or the Plan.
                        
    Provided that, since the date that this Award is granted you have continuously served as an Eligible Director, the restrictions on the RSUs will lapse in installments as provided in the vesting schedule in the Award Agreement until all the RSUs have vested into Shares free of restrictions, based on the initial number of RSUs granted.

    The Company will pay a Dividend Equivalent on the RSUs that vest as provided in the Program.

You agree not to engage in certain activities.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time you engage in an activity following your termination of service which in the sole judgment of the Board is detrimental to the interests of the Company, a subsidiary or Affiliate, all RSUs that have not vested into Shares will be forfeited to the Company. You acknowledge that such activity includes, but is not limited to, “Business Activities” (as defined below).

You agree, in consideration for this Award, and regardless of whether any RSUs have vested, while you are a holder of the RSUs and for a period of one year thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), not to directly or indirectly, own any interest in (other than an indirect interest that arises from your ownership of or investments in mutual funds or similar collective investment equity vehicles available to the general public), manage, control, participate in (whether as a manager, officer, employee, partner, agent, representative or otherwise), consult with, render services for, or any other manner engage in, or assist in any manner any other person or entity to engage in, any Business Activities within the Restricted Territory. For purposes hereof, (i) “Business Activities” shall mean the design, development,


    
manufacture, sale, marketing or servicing of any product or service that is competitive with any products or services offered by the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company at any time while this Award is outstanding; and (ii) “Restricted Territory means any state in which the Company or its subsidiary or Affiliate offers services or products.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree that during the Restricted Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit business from any person or entity that is or was a client or customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates during the time in which this Award is outstanding for the purpose of securing business or contracts related to the Business Activities or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company and its subsidiaries or Affiliates and any such client or customer; or (ii) employ, solicit, engage, or in any way interfere in the Company’s relationship with any person who is (or was at any time during the 12 months preceding such action) employed or engaged by the Company or its subsidiaries or Affiliates.

Should you breach any of the restrictions contained in this section, by accepting this Award you agree, independent of any equitable or legal remedies that the Company may have and without limiting the Company’s right to any other equitable or legal remedies, to pay to the Company in cash immediately upon the demand of the Company (1) the amount of income realized for income tax purposes from this Award, net of all federal, state and other taxes payable on the amount of such income, but only to the extent such income is realized from the vesting of RSUs on or after the termination of your service as a Director of the Company or within the two year period prior to the date of such termination, plus (2) all costs and expenses of the Company in any effort to enforce its rights under this section. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Company shall have the right to set off or withhold any amount owed to you by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates for any amount owed to the Company by you under this Award Agreement.

You agree to resolve any disputes through mediation and, if necessary, binding arbitration.

Section 3 of the Plan provides, in part, that the Committee appointed by the Board to administer the Plan shall have the authority to interpret the Plan, the Award Agreements, this Award and any related document and decide all questions and settle all controversies and disputes relating thereto. It further provides that the determinations, interpretations and decisions of the Committee are within its sole discretion and are final, conclusive and binding on all persons. In addition, you and the Company agree that if for any reason a claim is asserted against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates or any officer, employee or agent of the foregoing (other than a claim involving non-competition restrictions or the Company’s, a subsidiary’s or an Affiliate’s trade secrets, confidential information or intellectual property rights) which (1) subverts the provisions of Section 3 of the Plan; or (2) involves any of the provisions of the Award Agreement or the Plan or the provisions of any equity award or other agreements relating to Company Common Stock or the claims of yourself or any persons to the benefits thereof, in order to provide a more speedy and economical resolution, you and the Company will resolve any dispute through mediation, and, if necessary, final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. The mediation and arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”)


    
under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties shall bear their own legal fees in any arbitration and shall split the fees of the AAA and the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the provisions contained herein, however, the parties specifically agree that any mediation or arbitration required by this paragraph shall take place at the offices of the American Arbitration Association located in the metropolitan Detroit area or such other location in the metropolitan Detroit area as the parties might agree. Except as otherwise required under applicable law, you and the Company agree that class action, collective action and representative action procedures shall not be asserted, nor will they apply in any proceeding governed by the Program. Neither the Company nor you will assert any class action or representative claims; each shall only submit their own individual claims and will not seek to represent the interests of any other person or entity. The provisions of this paragraph: (a) shall survive the termination or expiration of the Award Agreement, (b) shall be binding upon the Company’s and your respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, designated beneficiaries and any other person asserting a claim based upon the Award Agreement, (c) shall supersede the provisions of any prior agreement between you and the Company with respect to any of the Company’s restricted stock unit, restricted stock or other stock-based incentive plans to the extent the provisions of such other agreement requires arbitration between you and the Company, and (d) may not be modified without the consent of the Company. Subject to the exception set forth above, you and the Company acknowledge that neither of us nor any other person asserting a claim described above has the right to resort to any federal, state or local court or administrative agency concerning any such claim and the decision of the arbitrator shall be a complete defense to any action or proceeding instituted in any tribunal or agency with respect to any dispute.

You agree to comply with applicable tax requirements and to provide information as requested.

    You agree to comply with the requirements of applicable federal and other laws with respect to withholding or providing for the payment of required taxes. You also agree to promptly provide such information with respect to RSUs or the underlying Shares acquired pursuant to this Award, as may be requested by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates.

    This Award is, in all respects, subject to the documents referenced in this Award Agreement and is intended to comply with, or be exempt from, as the case may be, the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.
The Award Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with Michigan law.

The headings set forth herein are for informational purposes only and are not a substantive part of these Terms and Conditions.

These Terms and Conditions are effective for grants made on or after the date hereof.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to fairly state our financial position at June 30, 2024, our results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and changes in shareholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted ("GAAP") in the United States of America. Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures regarding an entity's reportable segments, particularly regarding significant segment expenses, as well as information relating to the chief operating decision maker. We adopted this standard on a retrospective basis for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and will adopt this standard for interim periods beginning in 2025. The adoption of this guidance will modify our annual disclosures in 2024, but will not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, "Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method,” which permits an entity to elect to account for their tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received. We adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2024. The adoption of this new standard did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, "Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that an entity that uses a supplier finance program in connection with the purchase of goods or services disclose information about the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. We adopted this standard for annual periods on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2023. We also adopted the amendment on rollforward information, which became effective prospectively for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024. The adoption of this guidance modified our disclosures and will modify our annual disclosures for the rollforward information in 2024, but did not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires additional income tax disclosures, particularly regarding the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but will not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.

ACQUISITIONS
B. ACQUISITIONS

In the third quarter of 2023, we acquired all of the share capital of Sauna360 Group Oy (“Sauna360”) for approximately €124 million ($136 million), net of cash acquired. Sauna360 has a portfolio of products that includes traditional, infrared, and wood-burning saunas as well as steam showers. The business is included within the Plumbing Products segment. In connection with this acquisition, we recognized $22 million of indefinite-lived intangible assets, which is related to trademarks, and $45 million of definite-lived intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average amortization period of 16 years. We also recognized $60 million of goodwill, which is not tax deductible, and is related primarily to the expected synergies from combining the operations into our business. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we updated the allocation of the purchase price to certain identifiable assets and liabilities based on analysis of information as of the acquisition date, which resulted in a $1 million decrease to goodwill. The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is based on analysis of information as of the acquisition date that was available through June 30, 2024, and will be updated through the measurement period, if necessary.
In the first quarter of 2021, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary acquired a 75.1 percent equity interest in Easy Sanitary Solutions B.V. ("ESS"). The remaining 24.9 percent equity interest in ESS was subject to a call and put option that was exercisable by Hansgrohe SE or the sellers, respectively, any time after December 31, 2023. The redemption value of the call and put option was the same and based on a floating EBITDA value. The call and put options were determined to be embedded within the redeemable noncontrolling interest and were recorded as temporary equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We elected to adjust the redeemable noncontrolling interest to its full redemption amount directly into retained deficit.
In the first quarter of 2024, the sellers exercised their put option to sell the remaining 24.9 percent equity interest in ESS for €13 million ($15 million). The transaction was accounted for as an equity purchase transaction.

Supplier Finance Program [Abstract]  
SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM
G. SUPPLIER FINANCE PROGRAM

We facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the "program") to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. Our current payment terms with a majority of our suppliers generally range from 45 to 90 days. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program.
All outstanding payments owed under the program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts confirmed as valid under the program and included in accounts payable were $53 million at both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Of the amounts confirmed as valid under the program, the amounts owed to participating financial institutions were $21 million and $28 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. All payments made under the program are recorded as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

DEBT
H. DEBT

On April 26, 2022, we entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with an aggregate commitment of $1.0 billion and a maturity date of April 26, 2027. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, at our request and subject to certain conditions, we can increase the aggregate commitment up to an additional $500 million with the current lenders or new lenders.
The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility available to us and one of our foreign subsidiaries in U.S. dollars, European euros, British pounds sterling and certain other currencies for revolving credit loans, swingline loans and letters of credit. Borrowings under the revolving credit loans denominated in any agreed upon currency other than U.S. dollars are limited to the equivalent of $500 million. We can also borrow swingline loans up to $125 million and obtain letters of credit of up to $25 million. Outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement reduce our borrowing capacity and we had no outstanding letters of credit under the 2022 Credit Agreement at June 30, 2024.
The 2022 Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us to maintain (A) a net leverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not exceeding 4.0 to 1.0, and (B) an interest coverage ratio, as adjusted for certain items, not less than 2.5 to 1.0.
In order for us to borrow under the 2022 Credit Agreement, there must not be any default in our covenants in the 2022 Credit Agreement (i.e., in addition to the two financial covenants described above, principally limitations on subsidiary debt, negative pledge restrictions, and requirements relating to legal compliance, maintenance of our properties and insurance) and our representations and warranties in the 2022 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, 2021, no material ERISA or environmental non-compliance, and no material tax deficiency). We were in compliance with all covenants and no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2024.
On April 26, 2022, we entered into a 364-day $500 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan (the "term loan") due April 26, 2023 with a syndicate of lenders. The term loan and commitments thereunder were subject to prepayment or termination at our option and the loans bore interest at SOFR plus a spread adjustment and 0.70%. The covenants, including the financial covenants, were substantially the same as those in the 2022 Credit Agreement. We repaid $300 million during 2022 and the remaining $200 million upon the maturity of the term loan on April 26, 2023.
On May 9, 2023, our Hansgrohe SE subsidiary entered into €70 million ($77 million) of short-term borrowings to support working capital needs. The loans contained no financial covenants and the full amount remained borrowed and outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.173% at June 30, 2023, and was fully repaid at December 31, 2023.
Fair Value of Debt. The fair value of our short-term and long-term fixed-rate debt instruments is based principally upon modeled market prices for the same or similar issues, which are Level 1 inputs. At both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate estimated market value of our short-term and long-term debt was approximately $2.6 billion, compared with the aggregate carrying value of $3.0 billion.

Our effective tax rate was 26 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and 24 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was favorably impacted by $16 million and $12 million of income tax benefits, respectively. For both periods, the income tax benefits primarily resulted from stock-based compensation and a reduction in the liability for uncertain tax positions resulting from the expiration of statutes of limitation.

The types of matters may include, among others: advertising, competition, contract, data privacy, employment, environmental, insurance coverage, intellectual property, personal injury, product compliance, product liability, securities and warranty. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters. We are also subject to product safety regulations, product recalls and direct claims for product liabilities. We believe the likelihood that the outcome of these claims, litigation and product safety matters would have a material adverse effect on us is remote. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in these matters, and we could, in the future, incur judgments or penalties, enter into settlements of claims or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our results of operations.

ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance will modify our disclosures, but will not have an impact on our financial position and results of operations.
