Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Plan Administrator
Spectrum Brands 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the
Spectrum Brands 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended
December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the plans management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the plan as of December 31, 2007, and the
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of Spectrum Brands 401(k) Retirement of Savings Plan,
as listed in the table of contents, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is
not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required
by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the
responsibility of the plans management. The supplemental information has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion,
is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as
a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE 1 Description of the Plan
The following description of the Spectrum Brands 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan)
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more
complete description of the Plans provisions.
General
The Plan, originally effective as of July 1, 1983 and formerly known as the Rayovac 401(k)
Retirement Savings Plan was amended and restated in its entirety on May 1, 2006. The Plan, as
amended and restated, is intended to qualify as a profit-sharing plan under Internal Revenue Code
Section 401(a), and includes a cash or deferred arrangement that is intended to qualify under
Code Section 401(k). The plan is maintained for the exclusive benefit of eligible employees and
their beneficiaries.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering the employees of various companies under Spectrum
Brands, Inc. (the Company or the Plan Sponsor). The purpose of the Plan is to provide
supplemental support for participants upon their retirement. It is subject to the provisions of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
Until May 1, 2006, the Plans assets were included in the Master Trust for Spectrum Brands, Inc.
(Master Trust). The Master Trust also included the assets of the Rayovac 401(k) Savings Plan for
Hourly Employees. On May 1, 2006, the Master Trust changed their trustee from New York Life Trust
Company to Prudential Bank & Trust, FSB. All assets, included in the Master Trust were transferred
to the Plan effective May 1, 2006. Simultaneously, the Plan changed its name from the Rayovac
401(k) Retirement Savings Plan to the Spectrum Brands 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan and merged in
several other plans including the Rayovac 401(k) Savings Plan for Hourly Employees thus
eliminating the Master Trust.
Effective May 1, 2006, the following were merged into the Plan: the Rayovac 401(k) Retirement
Savings Plan for Hourly Employees, United Pet Group, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, Eight In One
Pet Products, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, Tetra Savings Plan, Spectrum Brands Retirement
Savings Plan & Trust, Firstrax Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust, and the Jungle Laboratories Corporation 401(k)
Retirement Plan.
Effective October 1, 2006, The Wonder Company 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan & Trust was merged into
the Plan.
All assets and liabilities of the merged plans were transferred to and made part of the Plan. A
participants service credited for eligibility and vesting purposes under a merged plan as of the
respective merger date, was included as eligibility and vesting service under the Plan to the
extent eligibility and vesting service are credited under the Plan.
Eligibility
Each Company employee who was an eligible employee immediately prior to a merger date continued to
be an eligible employee subsequent to the merger. Each Company employee, other than a United
Industries Bargaining Unit Employee or a Rayovac union employee, shall become an eligible employee
as of the next enrollment date following the date on which they become an employee.

to the merger date shall become an eligible employee as of the next enrollment date following the
date on which they completed one year of eligible service.
Each Rayovac union employee who was not an eligible employee immediately prior to the merger date
shall become an eligible employee as of the enrollment date coinciding with or next following the
date on which they completed 180 days of eligible service.
Contributions
Active participants are permitted to make contributions to the Plan in whole percentages up to 50%
of their pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan document, subject to applicable limits
of the Internal Revenue Code.
Effective January 1, 2007, the employer is required to match the first 3% of the eligible
employees compensation that he or she contributes to the Plan and 50% of the next 2% of the
eligible employees compensation that he or she contributes to the plan. Additional amounts may
also be contributed at the option of the employer.
Effective January 1, 2007, the employer is required to match 25% of each United Industries
Bargaining Unit Employees tax deferred contributions up to 6% of their compensation. Additional
amounts may also be contributed at the option of the employer.
For plan years ending before January 1, 2007 the matching contribution requirement varied by
employer and employee type. Additional employer discretionary contributions were also permitted.
Company
contributions to participant accounts are limited to the applicable limits of the Internal
Revenue Code.
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited with the participants contributions and an allocation of
the Companys contributions and Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of administrative
expenses. Allocations are based on participants compensation or account balances, as defined in
the Plan document.
Vesting
A
participant is fully vested in his or her account balance attributable to both the employee and
employer contributions made prior to January 1, 2007.
A participants vested interest in employer contributions made on or after January 1, 2007 varies
by division. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the
Plans vesting provisions.

NOTE 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying
financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis and present the net
assets available for plan benefits and changes in those assets in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
The fair value of the Plans investments is based on the beginning of year value of the Plans
interest in the assets (based on the fair value of the respective investments, as described in
the following paragraph) plus actual contributions and allocated investment income, including
unrealized gains and losses, less actual distributions, and allocated administrative expenses.
Investments in shares
of mutual funds are stated at quoted net asset values. Investments in shares
of Spectrum Brands common stock are stated at quoted market prices.
Assets transferred into the Plan from other retirement plans on May 1 or October 1, 2006 as
discussed in Note 1, were recorded at fair market value. For the guaranteed investment contract
described in Note 5, fair value and contract value are the same.
Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a trade-date basis. The Plan reports realized
and unrealized gains and losses for financial statement purposes based on revalued cost wherein
cost is determined to be fair value at the end of the prior plan year, or historical cost if the
investment was acquired since the beginning of the plan year, as required by the Department of
Labor.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
(cont.)
The Plans investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit
risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments and the level of uncertainty
related to changes in the values of investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes
in risks in the near term would materially affect participants account balances and the amounts
reported in the statement of net assets available for plan benefits and the statement of changes
in net assets available for plan benefits.
Benefits paid
Benefits paid to participants are recorded upon
distribution.
Administrative Expenses
Expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan are paid both by the Plan and by the
Company. Administrative expenses and investment advisory fees paid by the Plan for 2007 were
$88,773 less a $75,000 reimbursement from its third party administrator.
Use of Estimates
The Plan Administrator has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of
net assets available for plan benefits and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits during the reporting period to prepare these financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Participant Loans
Participants may receive loans from their accounts up to the lesser of 50% of the individual
participants vested account balance or $50,000. If the participant has received a loan in the
past, however, the $50,000 limit is reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance during the
preceding 12-month period. Loan terms must not exceed five years, except in the case of loans used
for purchase of a primary residence, in which case the loan period will be determined at the time
the loan is made, but may not exceed ten years. Loans are secured by the vested balance in the
participants account and bear interest at a reasonable rate commensurate with current interest
rates charged for loans made under similar circumstances. Principal and interest payments are due
on a quarterly basis or more often and are reinvested in the investment option(s) selected by the
participant.

SPECTRUM BRANDS 401(K) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE 3 Party-in-interest Transactions
The Plan has not considered Company contributions to the Plan or benefits paid by the Plan for
participants as party-in-interest transactions.
Administrative expenses and investment advisory fees paid by the Plan for 2007 were $88,773 less a
$75,000 reimbursement from its third party administrator.
Fees paid during the year for legal, accounting, actuarial, and other professional services
rendered by parties-in-interest were based on customary and reasonable rates for such services.
NOTE 4 Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated November
20, 2000, that the Plan and related Trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of
the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.
However, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in
accordance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, the plan
continues to qualify under Section 401(k) and the related trust continues to be tax-exempt as of
December 31, 2007. Therefore, no provision for income taxes is included in the Plans financial
statements.
NOTE 5 Investment Contract With Insurance Company
Nature and Operation of Contract
In 2006, the Plan entered into a benefit-responsive investment contract with Prudential Retirement
Insurance and Annuity Company (Prudential Insurance) as part of the Spectrum Brands Stable Value
Fund (known as the Guaranteed Income Fund as of December 31, 2007). Prudential Insurance maintains
the contributions in a general account. Under the group annuity insurance contract that supports
this product, participants may ordinarily direct permitted withdrawals or transfers of all or a
portion of their account balance at Contract Value within reasonable timeframes. Contract Value
represents deposits made to the contract, plus earnings at guaranteed crediting rates, less
withdrawals and fees. The contract is effected directly between the plan sponsor (or their trustee)
and the issuer. The repayment of principal and interest credited to participants is a financial
obligation of the issuer. Given these provisions, the trustee considers this contract to be benefit
responsive.
Interest Crediting Rates
Interest is credited on contract balances using a single portfolio rate approach. Under this
methodology, a single interest crediting rate is applied to all contributions made to the product
regardless of the timing of those contributions. Interest crediting rates are reviewed on a
semi-annual basis for resetting.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE 5 Investment Contract With Insurance Company (cont.)
Interest Crediting Rates
(cont.)
When establishing interest crediting rates for this product, Prudential considers many factors,
including current economic and market conditions, the general interest rate environment and both
the expected and actual experience of a reference portfolio within the issuers general account.
These rates are established without the use of a specific formula. The minimum crediting rate
under the contract is 1.50%.
Average Yield
The Average Earnings Yield shown is calculated by dividing the earnings credited to the Plan on the
last day of the plan year by the end of plan year Fair Value and then annualizing the result. The
Average Crediting Rate Yield shown is calculated by dividing the earnings credited to the
participants on the last day of the plan year by the end of plan year Fair Value and then
annualizing the result. As a result of current Stable Value product construction, no adjustment
will be required to mediate between the average earnings credited to the Plan and the average
earnings credited to the participants. Note that for products whose Fair Value differs from
Contract Value and/or for products that have multiple rate changes during the plan year, these
reported yields may differ from the actual earnings rates crediting to the Plan as well as the
actual crediting rates paid to participants during the full plan year. Average Yields for the Plan
are as follows as of December 31:

Events
Generally, there are not any events that could limit the ability of the Plan to transact at Contract Value paid within 90 days or in rare circumstances. Contract Value paid over time.
There are not any events that allow the issuer to terminate the contract and which require the plan sponsor to settle at an amount different than Contract Value paid either within 90 days or over time.
NOTE 6 Plan Termination
The Company has the right under the Plan agreement to reduce or cease contributions at the discretion of the Board of Directors, or to amend, the Plan at any time and in any respect. However, no
such action may deprive any participant or beneficiary under the Plan of any vested right. In the event
the Plan is wholly or partially terminated, or upon the complete discontinuance of contributions under the Plan by any entity
that is a part of the Company, each participants interest in their account shall be nonforfeitable on the date of such termination or discontinuance.
