NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)



Note 1:Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation:Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tupperware Brands Corporation and its subsidiaries, collectively “Tupperware” or the “Company”, with all intercompany transactions and balances having been eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared following the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and, in the Company's opinion, reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items that are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the balance sheet,consolidated statements of income, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of shareholder’sshareholders' equity and consolidated statements of cash flows prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. As such, these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited 20182019 consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018.28, 2019. Operating results of any interim period presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates:Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenuessales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
For the second quarter ended June 27, 2020, the impact of the decline in business activity brought about by the Coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) continues to evolve. As a result, many of the Company's estimates and assumptions required increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, the Company's estimates may change materially in future periods.
Liquidity and COVID-19
The global spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a “pandemic,” has spread to many countries and is impacting worldwide economic activity. Many governments have implemented policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease, such as shelter-in-place orders, resulting in the temporary closure of schools and non-essential businesses, and these measures may remain in place for a significant period of time. A top priority for the Company as it navigates through the global COVID-19 pandemic is the safety of its employees and their families, sales force and consumers, and to mitigate the impact on its operations and financial results. The Company will continue to proactively respond to the situation and may take further actions that alter the Company’s business operations as may be required by governmental authorities, or that the Company determines are in the best interests of its employees, sales force and consumers. In order to ensure safety and protect the health of the employees, and to comply with applicable government directives, the Company has modified its business practices to allow its employees to work remotely from home wherever possible, incorporate virtual meetings and restrict all non-essential employee travel.
Pursuant to ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company is required to and does evaluate at each annual and interim period whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. As of June 27, 2020 the Company has $501.3 million of Senior Notes that will mature on June 1, 2021, which is within one year of the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued for the second quarter ended June 27, 2020. Based on the definitions in the relevant accounting standards, management has determined that this condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This evaluation does not consider the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented. Management may evaluate the mitigating effect of its plans to determine if it is probable that (1) the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and (2) when implemented, the plans will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Hedging: The Company expects to continue to address its outstanding current indebtedness through open-market purchases, future tender offers, exchange offers of debt for debt, cash or equity, or otherwise (On December 30, 2018,debt refinancing). The Company has successfully retired $98.7 million of those Senior Notes at a discount to par during the second quarter and an additional $13.4 million subsequent to the end of second quarter and through July 29, 2020. In addition to the debt refinancing, the Company adoptedbelieves that its improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated sale of the Company's Orlando real estate

and other non-core assets, and its forecasted availability under its Credit Agreement, will enable the Company to meet all its future debt obligations. However, as the debt refinancing and sale of non-core assets is conditional upon the execution of agreements with new guidance on hedge accounting,or existing investors or the execution of sales agreements with third parties, which requiredare considered outside of the Company’s control, the debt refinancing and sales of assets are not considered probable of occurring until such time as they are completed. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a cumulative-effect adjustment togoing concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the opening balanceoutcome of retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive incomethis uncertainty. During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company generated $101.8 million of $5.0 million,cash flows from operating activities, net of taxes.investing activities, through reductions in discretionary spending, revisiting investment strategies, improvements in working capital including inventory reductions, and reducing payroll costs, including through organizational redesign, employee furloughs, and permanent reductions in employee headcount. As part of the adoption,June 27, 2020, the Company elected to include forward pointsis in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Agreement. The Company currently forecasts that it will be in compliance with its financial covenants for at least one year from the assessmentissuance of hedge effectiveness for net equity and cash flow hedges and exclude forward points inthese interim financial statements, after taking into consideration the assessment for fair value hedges. In addition, the Company now records the entire change in fair value of hedging instruments in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item. Prior to adoption,measures noted above. If the impact from forward points was recorded as interest expense. Refer toof COVID-19 is more severe than currently forecasted this may impact the Company’s compliance with its financial covenants which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. See Note 1210 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on impact from new hedge accounting guidance.
Leases: On December 30, 2018, the Company adopted new guidance on lease accounting using the modified retrospective method, which required a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings of $7.1 million, net of taxes. Prior periods have not been restated. The standard did not materially impact consolidated net income or liquidity, and did not have an impact on debt-covenant compliance under the Company's debt agreements. The new guidance was applied to all operating and capital leases at the date of initial application. Leases historically referred to as capital leases are now referred to as finance leases under the new guidance.
The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, and as a basis for its lease policies, which allowed the Company to carryforward its historical assessments of: (1) whether contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. The Company also elected to not separate lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets in which it is the lessee, and made an accounting policy election to not account for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet. In addition, the Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. The Company recognizes payments on these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recordingimpact of additional net lease assets and lease liabilitiesan Event of $79.3 million and $80.3 million, respectively, as of September 28, 2019 related to the Company's operating leases. The standard did not materially impact the Company's consolidated net earnings or cash flows. Refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.Default.

Note 3:Promotional Costs
Note 3: Promotional Costs
The Company frequently makes promotional offers to members of its independent sales force to encourage them to fulfill specific goals or targets for other activities, ancillary to the Company's business, but considered separate and distinct services from sales, which are measured by defined group/team sales levels, party attendance, addition of new sales force members or other business-critical functions. The awards offered are in the form of product awards, special prizes or trips.
The Company accrues for the costs of these awards during the period over which the sales force qualifies for the award and reports these costs primarily as a component of DS&A expense. These accruals require estimates as to the cost of the awards, based upon estimates of achievement and actual cost to be incurred. During the qualification period, actual results are monitored, and changes to the original estimates are made when known.
Promotional and other sales force compensation expenses included in DS&A expense totaled $64.7 million and $73.0 million for the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively and $214.9 million and $244.1 million for the respective year-to-date periods.costs were:

Note 9: Segment Information
Note 9:Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company's goodwill and intangible assets relate primarily to the December 2005 acquisition of the direct-to-consumer businesses of Sara Lee Corporation. In the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, the Company completed the annual assessments for all of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets, concluding $19.7 million of impairment existed as of the third quarter 2019, mainly for the impairment of goodwill associated with the Fuller Mexico beauty and personal care products business in the amount of $17.5 million. The Nutrimetics tradename was also impaired by $2.2 million due to declining sales trends, leaving a $3.5 million carrying value as of September 28, 2019. There were 0 impairments in 2018.

The impairment evaluation of the goodwill associated with the Fuller Mexico reporting unit involved comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including the goodwill balance, after consideration of impairment to its long-lived assets. There were 0 impairments of any long-lived assets. The fair value analysis for Fuller Mexico was completed using the income approach, which was considered a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The significant assumptions used in the income approach included estimates regarding future operations and the ability to generate cash flows, including projections of revenue, costs, utilization of assets and capital requirements. The income approach, or discounted cash flow approach, also requires an estimate as to the appropriate discount rate to be used. The most sensitive estimate in this valuation is the projection of operating cash flows, as these provide the basis for the estimate of fair market value. The Company’s cash flow model used a forecast period of ten years with annual revenue growth rates ranging from negative 8 percent to positive 4 percent, a compound average growth rate of 0.2 percent, and a 2.5 percent growth rate used in calculating the terminal value. The discount rate used was 14.9 percent. The growth rates were determined by reviewing historical results of the operating unit and the historical results of the Company’s other similar business units, along with the expected contribution from growth strategies being implemented. As the fair value of Fuller Mexico was less than the carrying value by more than the recorded goodwill balance, the remaining balance of goodwill recorded at Fuller Mexico was written off.

The Credit Agreement replaces the credit agreement dated September 11, 2013 and as amended (the “Old Credit Agreement”) and, other than an increased aggregate amount that may be borrowed, an improvement in the consolidated leverage ratio covenant and a slightly more favorable commitment fee rate, has terms and conditions similar to that of the Old Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement makes available to the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers a committed five-year credit facility in an aggregate amount of $650$650.0 million (the “Facility Amount”). The Credit Agreement provides (i) a revolving credit facility, available up to the full amount of the Facility Amount, (ii) a letter of credit facility, available up to $50$50.0 million of the Facility Amount, and (iii) a swingline facility, available up to $100$100.0 million of the Facility Amount. Each of such facilities is fully available to the Company and the Facility Amount is available to the Subsidiary Borrowers up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $325$325.0 million. With the agreement of its lenders, the Company is permitted to increase, on up to 3 occasions, the Facility Amount by a total of up to $200$200.0 million (for a maximum aggregate Facility Amount of $850$850.0 million), subject to certain conditions. As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of $323.7$298.8 million outstanding under theits Credit Agreement, with $173.7$137.2 million of that amount denominated in euros.Euro.

The applicable margin in each case will be determined by reference to a pricing schedule and will be based upon the better for the Company of (a) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (computed as consolidated funded indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries to the consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Company and its subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarters then most recently ended) for the fiscal quarter referred to in the quarterly or annual financial statements most recently delivered, or (b) the Company’s then existing long-term debt securities rating by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. or Standard and Poor’s Financial Services, Inc. Under the Credit Agreement, the applicable margin for ABR Borrowings ranges from 0.375 percent to 0.875 percent, the applicable margin for Eurocurrency Borrowings ranges from 1.375 percent to 1.875 percent, and the applicable margin for the commitment fee ranges from 0.150 percent to 0.275 percent. Loans made under the swingline facility will bear interest, if denominated in U.S. Dollars, at the same rate as an ABR Borrowing and, if denominated in another currency, at the same rate as a Eurocurrency Borrowing.

As a result, the Company has higherincurs more interest expense and has higher foreign exchange exposure on the value of its cash and debt during each quarter than would relate solely to the quarter end cash and debt balances.
At September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Company had $406.1$403.4 million of unused lines of credit, including $324.9$345.6 million under the committed, secured Credit Agreement, and $81.2$57.8 million available under various uncommitted lines around the world.
Senior Notes
The Company currently has outstanding $501.3 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes will mature on June 1, 2021. The Notes were issued under an indenture (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the “Guarantor and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee.

See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2019 for further details regarding the Senior Notes.

Whether the Company will be able to repay or refinance the Senior Notes will depend on economic, financial, competitive and other factors that may be beyond its control, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and on the Company’s financial performance at the time. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures implemented to slow the spread of COVID-19 may negatively impact the Company's ability to repay or refinance the Senior Notes. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts the Company’s ability to repay or refinance the Senior Notes will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with certainty. Any refinancing of the Senior Notes may be at a higher interest rate and may require the Company to comply with additional covenants and obligations, which could further restrict the Company's business operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the Seniors Notes may pursue certain remedies relating to the collateral securing the guaranty of the Senior Notes or pursue other remedies, in each case in accordance with the Indenture and the documents relating to such collateral, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Senior Notes Repurchase
During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company paid approximately $56.4 million through Tender Offers and open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of approximately $98.7 million. These transactions resulted in a pre-tax gain on debt extinguishment (including costs associated with the Senior Notes repurchase) of $40.0 million which was recorded in the Other expense (income), net line item. The gain on debt extinguishment resulted in basic earnings per share of $0.82 for the second quarter of 2020 and the respective year-to-date period. Any deferred debt issuance costs related to the purchased Senior Notes were expensed and recorded in the interest expense line item.
Since June 27, 2020 and through July 29, 2020, the Company paid $10.7 million through open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of $13.4 million.
Note 12:Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Note 11: Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on the earnings, cash flows and financial position of its international operations. Although this currency risk is partially mitigated by the natural hedge arising from the Company's local manufacturing in many markets, a strengthening U.S. dollar generally has a negative impact on the Company. In response, the Company uses financial instruments to hedge certain of its exposures and to manage the foreign exchange impact to its financial statements. At its inception, a derivative financial instrument is designated as a fair value, cash flow or net equityinvestment hedge.
Fair value hedges are entered into with financial instruments such as forward contracts, with the objective of limiting exposure to certain foreign exchange risks primarily associated with accounts payable and non-permanent intercompany transactions. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings. In assessing hedge effectiveness, as of the beginning of 2019, the Company made the accounting policy election in accordance with ASU 2017-12 to exclude forward points and record their impact in the same income statement line item that is used to present the earnings effect of the hedged item for 2019, Other income,expense (income), net. Prior to 2019, the forward points had been included as a component of interest expense. The forward points on fair value hedges resulted in pretax income of $5.1$7.6 million and $4.3$4.4 million in the thirdsecond quarters of 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively and $13.2$12.6 million and $15.1$8.1 million for the respective year-to-date periods.
The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency exposures resulting from certain forecasted purchases and classifies these as cash flow hedges. The majority of cash flow hedge contracts that the Company enters into relate to inventory purchases. At initiation, the Company's cash flow hedge contracts are generally for periods ranging from one month to fifteen months. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the open hedging instrument is recorded in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings when settled through the same line item as the transaction being hedged. As such, the balance at the end of the current reporting period in other comprehensive income, related to cash flow hedges, will generally be reclassified within the next twelve months. The associated asset or liability on the open hedges is recorded in other current assets or accrued liabilities, as applicable. In assessing hedge effectiveness, the Company made an accounting policy change as of December 30, 2018the beginning of 2019 to include forward points in the assessment of effectiveness for cash flow hedges causing the impact from forward points to be recorded as part of other comprehensive income compared to interest expense as it previously had been recorded. Based on the interest expense incurred for open cash flow hedges as of December 30, 2018, the Company recorded an adjustment of $1.2 million, net of taxes, to accumulated comprehensive income and retained earnings to reflect this accounting policy change. There was an immaterial impact from forward points recorded in other comprehensive income for activity related to the third quartersecond quarters and year-to-date periods of 2020 and 2019. The Company recognized $1.0$0.6 million and $3.1$1.1 million of manufacturing variances that will be capitalized and amortized over actual months of inventory turns related to the forward point impact from the settlement of cash flow hedges in the third quartersecond quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively and $1.4 million and $2.1 million for the respective year-to-date periods of 2019.periods.

The Company also uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward contracts and certain euroEuro denominated borrowings under its Credit Agreement, to hedge a portion of its net equity investment in international operations and classifies these as net equityinvestment hedges. Changes in the value of these financial instruments, excluding any ineffective portion of the hedges, are included in foreign currency translation adjustments within accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company recorded, net of tax, in other comprehensive income a net gainloss of $5.3$43.7 million and a net loss of $1.1$2.1 million associated with these hedges in the thirdsecond quarters of 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively and net gain of $12.5 million and loss of $9.9 million and gain of $12.9$15.2 million for the respective year-to-date periods. Due to the permanent nature of the investments, the Company does not anticipate reclassifying any portion of these amounts to the income statement in the next twelve months. In assessing hedge effectiveness, the Company made an accounting policy change as of December 30, 2018the beginning of 2019 to include forward points in the assessment of effectiveness for net equityinvestment hedges causing the impact from forward points to be recorded as part of other comprehensive income compared to interest expense as it previously had been recorded.

Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following is a discussion of the results of operations for the 13 and 3926 weeks ended September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, compared with the 13 and 3926 weeks ended SeptemberJune 29, 2018,2019, and changes in financial condition during the 3926 weeks ended September 28, 2019.June 27, 2020.
The Company's core sales are derived from the distribution of its products through independent sales organizations and individuals, which in many cases arewho may also be its customers. The vast majority of the Company's products are,customers, who then, in turn, soldsell to end consumers who are not members of its sales force. The Company is largely dependent upon these independent sales organizations and individuals to reach end consumers, and any significant disruption of this distribution network would have a negative financial impact on the Company and its ability to generate sales, earnings and operating cash flows. The Company's primary business drivers are the size, activity, diversity and productivity of its independent sales organizations.
In 2019,2020, the Company continued to sell directly and/or through its sales force as well as to end consumers via the Internetinternet and through business-to-business transactions, in which it sells products to a partner company. These business-to-business transactions are not considered part of the Company's core sales and are not material to overall sales.
As the impacts of foreign currency translation are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, the Company believes the presentation of results on a local currency basis, as a supplement to reported results, helps improve readers' ability to understand the Company's operating results and evaluate performance in comparison with prior periods. The Company presents local currency information that compares results between periods as if current period exchange rates had been used to translate results in the prior period. The Company uses results on a local currency basis as one measure to evaluate performance. The Company generally refers to such amounts as calculated on a "local currency" basis, or "excluding the impact of foreign currency." These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Results on a local currency basis may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
OverviewThe global spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a “pandemic,” has spread to many countries and is impacting worldwide economic activity. Many governments have implemented policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease, such as shelter-in-place orders, resulting in the temporary closure of schools and non-essential businesses, and these measures may remain in place for a significant period of time. During the second quarter of 2020, the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business was most pronounced in Europe and Asia Pacific where the Company experienced partial or country-wide lockdowns of operations in various markets. The second quarter impact of COVID-19 largely affected revenues, financial results and liquidity. While the duration and severity of this pandemic is uncertain, the Company currently expects that its results of operations in the second half of 2020 may also be negatively impacted by COVID-19, mainly in Europe and Asia. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity may differ from management’s current estimates due to inherent uncertainties regarding the duration and further spread of the outbreak, its severity, actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.
A top priority for the Company as it navigates through the global COVID-19 pandemic is the safety of its employees and their families, sales force and consumers, and to mitigate the impact on its operations and financial results. The Company will continue to proactively respond to the situation and may take further actions that alter the Company’s business operations as may be required by governmental authorities, or that the Company determines are in the best interests of its employees, sales force and consumers.
The Company also continues to take certain measures as part of its Turnaround Plan and in response to COVID-19, designed to enhance its liquidity position, provide additional financial flexibility and maintain forecasted financial covenant compliance. These measures include reductions in discretionary spending and reducing payroll costs, including through organizational redesign, employee furloughs and permanent reductions. These actions resulted in approximately $60 million of gross cost reductions in the second quarter.
Additionally, the Company believes that improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated sale of the Company's Orlando real estate and other non-core assets in the coming year, will contribute to its ability to meet all future debt obligations. During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company generated $101.8 million of cash flow from operating activities, net of investing activities, through reductions in discretionary spending, revisiting investment strategies, improvements in working capital including inventory reductions, and reducing payroll costs, including through organizational redesign, employee furloughs, and permanent reductions in employee headcount.

Total unallocated expenses in Brazil,the second quarter of 2020 decreased $35.6 million compared with 2019, reflecting a net gain from increased commission expense, and Fuller Mexico, due to increased bad debt costs (1.3 pp)extinguishment ($40 million), partially offset by non-recurring fees for professional services firms supporting business turnaround efforts (about $5 million).
Specific segment impacts are discussed in the segment results section in this Part I, Item 2.

Re-engineering CostsCharges
Refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, for a discussion of re-engineering activities and accruals.
The multi-year decline in revenue led the Company to evaluate its operating structure leading to actions designed to reduce costs, improve operating efficiency and otherwise turnaround its business. These actions often result in re-engineering costs related to headcount reductions and to facility downsizing and closure, other costs that may be necessary in light of the revised operating landscape including structural changes impacting how its sales force operates, as well as related asset write downs. The Company may recognize gains or losses upon disposal of excess facilities or other activities directly related to its re-engineering efforts.
The Company recorded $7.5$23.2 million and $3.0$4.1 million in re-engineering charges during the thirdsecond quarters of 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively, and $15.9$27.1 million and $12.7$8.4 million of charges for the respective year-to-date periods.periods, respectively. These re-engineering costs were mainly related to the July 2017 revitalization programTurnaround Plan.
The Turnaround Plan has a global focus to drive operational efficiency and transformation program announced in January 2019.
right size cost structure with an emphasis on organizational realignment, leveraging of procurement and sourcing, driving innovation, and improving sales force engagement and consumer experiences. The Company incurred $1.1$22.4 million and $3.0$4.2 million of charges in the thirdsecond quarters of 20192020 and 2018, respectively, and $3.3 million and $12.7 million of charges under the 2017 program for the 2019, and 2018 year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily related to severance costscosts. In the second quarter of 2020 the Company realized cost savings of approximately $60 million. For full year 2020 the Company is expected to incur approximately $30.0 million in pretax cost, with 100 percent paid in cash and generate about $180.0 million in savings. This plan is expected to run through 2021.

In relation to the 2017 program, the Company incurred for headcount reductionscharges of $0.8 million and a benefit of $0.5 million in severalthe second quarters of the Company’s operations in connection with changes in its management2020 and organizational structures.2019, respectively. Under this program, the Company has incurred $83.0$85.5 million of pretax costs starting in the second quarter of 2017 through the thirdsecond quarter of 2019. The Company2020 and expects to incur an additional $4.7$1.2 million of pretax re-engineering costs starting in the fourth quarterremaining of 2019 through 2020. The annualized benefit of these actions once fully implemented, is estimated to be $35 million with $32 million already realized in 2017 and 2018 combined.has been approximately $36.0 million. After reinvestment of a portion of the benefits, improved profitability is reflected most significantly through lower cost of products sold, but also through lower DS&A; however, overall profitability has not risen in light of lower sales and higher costs.
The 2019 program was launched with the focus to drive innovation, sales force engagement and consumer experiences through a contemporized and streamlined service model. This program runs through 2022 and is expected to incur approximately $100 million in pretax cost, with 90 percent paid in cash. The Company incurred $4.6$0.4 million and $10.0 million in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2019, respectively, in Europe and Asia Pacific, primarily related to outside consulting services, project team expenses, and distributor support. Savings from the 2019 program will occur as the program is implemented over the three-year period, and once fully executed, is expected to enable annual local currency sales growth and to generate about $50 million in annualized savings.
Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
The Company's goodwill and intangible assets relate primarily to the December 2005 acquisition of the direct-to-consumer businesses of Sara Lee Corporation. In the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, the Company completed the annual assessments for all of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets, concluding $19.7 million of impairment existed as of the third quarter 2019, mainly for the impairment of the Fuller Mexico goodwill of $17.5 million. The Nutrimetics tradename was also impaired by $2.2 million due to declining sales trends, leaving a $3.5 million carrying value as of September 28, 2019. There were no impairments in 2018.
In the second quarter of 2017, the Company performed an interim impairment test over the Fuller Mexico reporting unit as of the end of May 2017 and recorded an impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the reporting unit to the fair value from the evaluation. With the estimated fair value of the reporting unit equaling its carrying value, the Fuller Mexico reporting unit had a high risk of future impairment to the remaining goodwill balance. The estimated fair value from the 2017 assessment was dependent upon the Company's ability to overcome a trend of negative sales, profit and cash flow that began in 2011, in order to see positive revenue growth starting in 2019 with continued four percent growth in years thereafter. In the second half of 2017 and in 2018, the reporting unit was successful in meeting projections from the 2017 assessment due to improved sales with better margins and lower promotional spending. This resulted in a reduction to negative revenue trends from the projected 10.0 percent to 8.7 percent in 2017 and 7.1 percent to 0.8 percent in 2018. During the first and second quarters of 2019, the reporting unit began to see declines in sales and profit due to difficult economic and geopolitical trends, but was still projected to meet expectations from the May 2017 assessment. In the third quarter of 2019, the impact from those unfavorable economic and geopolitical trends accelerated, leading to lower sales, an increase in bad debt expense and increased inventory obsolescence which caused the reporting unit’s profitability and cash flows to fall short of previous expectations for the current year. Given the on-going economic environment and social policies enacted by the current Mexican government, the Company expects these trends to continue into future periods.

The impairment evaluation of the Fuller Mexico reporting unit included a fair value analysis, for which the significant assumptions included annual revenue growth rates ranging from negative eight percent to positive four percent, with revenue stabilization starting in 2022 and positive revenue growth starting in 2023, a compound average growth rate of 0.2 percent, and a 2.5 percent growth rate used in calculating the terminal value. The discount rate used for Fuller Mexico was 14.9 percent, which was approximately one percentage point lower than at the time of the assessment performed in the second quarter of 2017 based on changes to interest rates and other macro-economic factors in Mexico since that time. Based on the fair value calculation performed as of the third quarter 2019, the remaining balance of goodwill for Fuller Mexico was written off due to the calculated fair value being less than carrying value for the reporting unit by more than the recorded goodwill.
The fair value of all of the Company's remaining reporting units and tradename intangibles exceeds their respective carrying values based on the current estimates and assumptions regarding sales performance and profitability. Given the sensitivity of valuations to changes in cash flow or market multiples, the Company may be required to recognize an impairment of goodwill or intangible assets in the future due to changes in market conditions or other factors related to the Company’s performance. Actual results below forecasted results or a decrease in the forecasted future results of the Company’s business plans or changes in interest rates could also result in an impairment charge, as could changes in market characteristics including additional declines in valuation multiples of comparable publicly-traded companies. Further impairment charges would have an adverse impact on the Company’s net income.
Gains on Disposal of Assets
In 2019, the Company received proceeds from the sale of long-term assets of $20.4 million with a net gain of $11.1 million, primarily reflecting third quarter transactions associated with land near the Company's Orlando, Florida headquarters and the sale of the French marketing office. In 2018, the Company recorded $16.1 million of net gains from $36.5 million of proceeds received related to the sale of long-term assets primarily during the first half of the year. The Company sold the Beauticontrol headquarters in Texas in the first quarter of 2018 and the distribution facility in Japan and land near the Company's Orlando, Florida headquarters during the second quarter of the year.other re-engineering charges.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense was $9.8$11.9 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 2019, a decrease2020, an increase of $0.9$1.5 million compared to the thirdsecond quarter of 2018.2019. In the year-to-date periods, net interest expense was $29.8$21.6 million in 2019,2020, compared with $32.3$20.0 million in 2018. The decrease2019.The increase in interest expense was related to the $1.2 million and $3.9 million reclassification from the accounting policy change for forward points from the Company's hedging activities for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, partially offset by the impact of higher interest on borrowings in the third quarter and year-to-date comparisons.borrowings.
Tax RateIncome Taxes
The effective tax rates for the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2019 were 44.2 percent and 33.9 percent, respectively, compared with 31.6 percent and 32.1 percent for the comparable 2018 periods. The tax rate for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2020 was 22.8 percent and 24.6 percent, respectively compared with 36.2 percent and 32.9 percent for the corresponding 2019 was 36.2 percent.periods. The increasedecrease in the rate fromwas primarily attributable to a change in the second quarter tojurisdictional mix of earnings between the third quarter of 2019, was the result of a 2018 tax return to provision true-up related to the Tax Actperiods compared and the impairment charges primarily relatedCompany’s ability to Fuller Mexico's goodwill.offset the taxable gain from gain on debt extinguishment with a mixture of assets previously reserved and global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) credits that would have otherwise been lost.
As discussed in Note 1514 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, the Company's uncertain tax positions increase the potential for volatility in its tax rate. As such, it is reasonably possible that the effective tax rates in any individual quarter will vary from the full year expectation. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate what impact that may have on any individual quarter.
Net Income
Net income decreased $31.3increased $24.4 million in the thirdsecond quarter of 20192020 compared with 2018,2019, which included a $1.7$7.1 million negative impact on the comparison from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Segment Results
The Company had an impact to sales and profit results by reporting segment in the second quarter of 2020 as a result of COVID-19. While the duration and severity of this pandemic is uncertain, the Company currently expects that its results of operations in the second half of 2020 may also be negatively impacted by COVID-19, mainly in Europe and Asia. The Company continues to monitor the effects of COVID-19 on its reported sales and profit and has taken several steps to mobilize its resources to ensure adequate liquidity, business continuity and employee safety during this pandemic.

Reported sales decreased 12 percent compared with the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sales decreased 11 percent. On average, the impact of lower prices was three percent in the third quarter compared with 2018, primarily related to more aggressive promotional pricing.
The main drivers for the decrease in local currency sales were:
China, from a reduction in outlet openings and a shift in mix to mid-priced products from premium priced products due to consumer spending trends
Indonesia, from a smaller, less active sales force
Malaysia and Singapore, due to a less active and less productive sales force
Segment profit decreased 25 percent compared with the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, segment profit decreased 24 percent, primarily reflecting:
the impact from lower sales volume in China, in addition to lower margins from more aggressive promotional pricing
lower sales volumes and higher investments to drive the new compensation program in Indonesia

On a year-to-date basis, reported sales decreased 12 percent compared with the same period of 2018. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, sales decreased nine percent compared with 2018. On average, the impact of lower prices was two percent in year-to-date period compared with 2018, primarily related to more aggressive promotional pricing. Year-to-date local currency sales and segment profit variances largely mirrored those of the quarter, with the exception of India, with sales down due a smaller sales force, a decrease in profit from lower sales volume and investment associated to the shift to the studio and digital model in response to changing regulations around direct sellers in the country.

Reported sales in the second quarter of 2020 decreased 0.6 percent compared with the second quarter of 2019. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sales increased 10.4 percent.
The net increase in local currency sales was mainly driven by the United States and Canada, reflecting a larger sales force from higher recruiting and increased activity. The United States and Canada was able to navigate the COVID-19 with positive sales and profit impact by leveraging digital tools and training. This increase was partially offset by Tupperware Mexico, due to a less active and less productive sales force mainly from lower recruiting, negatively impacted by COVID-19.
Estimated COVID-19 impact in the second quarter was positive at about 1pp, as increased sales from the United States and Canada more than offset the negative impact at the rest of the units within the segment. The average impact of higher prices was about 2 percent.
Reported segment profit decreased 7.9 percent and the local currency increased 7.9 percent in the second quarter of 2020, primarily related to:
Fuller Mexico, due to lower operating expenses from the efforts to align cost structure with sales levels
the United States and Canada, from higher sales volume and higher distributiongross margin
partially offset by Tupperware Mexico, from lower sales volume and promotional pricing
On a year-to-date basis, reported sales decreased 7.8 percent compared with 2019. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sales in 2020 were in-line compared with 2019. The factors impacting the year-to-date sales comparison largely mirrored those of the quarter.
Year-to-date segment profit decreased 33.2 percent on a reported basis, and 23.2 percent in local currency. Local segment profit variances largely mirrored those of the quarter except for the benefits from the Turnaround Plan.
The Mexican peso had the most meaningful impact on the second quarter and year-to-date sales and profit comparisons.

On February 26, 2020, S&P downgraded the Company’s credit rating from BB+ to B and placed all of its ratings on Credit Watch with negative implication. On February 27, 2020 Moody’s downgraded the net amountsCompany’s credit rating from Baa3 to B1. Subsequent to those dates, the Company’s credit ratings have been downgraded further by S&P and Moody’s, with S&P’s rating of the Company currently at CCC-, and Moody’s rating of the Company currently at Caaa3.If the Company faces continued downgrades in its credit rating, the Company could also experience further strains on the balance sheet for hedging activitiesits liquidity and capital resources.
On March 29, 2019,February 28, 2020, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) and restatedamong other things, the Amendment eliminated the requirement that a Non-Investment Grade Ratings Event, as defined in the Credit Agreement, must occur before the Company is required to cause the Additional Guarantee and Collateral Requirement, as defined in the Credit Agreement, to be satisfied. As a result, the Company is required to cause certain of its multicurrencydomestic subsidiaries to become guarantors and the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries are required to pledge additional collateral. The Amendment also modified the financial covenant. Previously, the Company had to maintain at specified measurement periods a Consolidated Leverage Ratio that was not greater than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement. Agreement was amended to prevent the Company from exceeding the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the four fiscal quarters ending in March 2020, and continuing through the calculation for the four fiscal quarters ending in March 2021. If the Company had exceeded the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, this could have constituted an Event of Default, potentially resulting in a cross default under cross-default provisions with respect to other of the Company's debt obligations, giving the lenders the ability to terminate the revolving commitments, accelerate outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement, exercise certain remedies relating to the collateral securing the Credit Agreement, and require the Company to post cash collateral for all outstanding letters of credit. In addition to the relief provided in the Amendment, the Company has reduced certain operating expenses beginning in 2020 and could use available cash, including repatriating cash held outside of the United States, to make debt repayments to lower its Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Following the Amendment, the Company is required to maintain at the last day of each quarterly measurement period a Consolidated Leverage Ratio not greater than or equal to the ratio as set forth below opposite the period that includes such day (or, if such day does not end on the last day of the calendar quarter, that includes the last day of the calendar quarter that is nearest to such day):

As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of $323.7$298.8 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement, with $173.7$137.2 million of that amount denominated in euros.Euro. As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Credit Agreement dictated a base rate spread of 150 basis points, which gave the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 2.52.0 percent with a base rate spread of 188 basis points on LIBOR-based borrowings under the Credit Agreement. As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, and currently, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement.

At September 28, 2019,As of June 27, 2020, the Company had $406.1$403.4 million of unused lines of credit, including $324.9$345.6 million under the committed, secured Credit Agreement, and $81.2$57.8 million available under various uncommitted lines around the world. If necessary, withWith the agreement of its lenders, the Company is permitted to increase its borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement by a total of up to $200$200.0 million (for a maximum aggregate Facility Amount of $850.0 million) subject to certain conditions.
The Company currently has outstanding $501.3 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes will mature on June 1, 2021. The Notes were issued under an indenture (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, its 100 percent subsidiary, the Guarantor, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee. As security for its obligations under the guarantee of the Senior Notes, the Guarantor has granted a security interest in certain “Tupperware” trademarks and service marks. As security for its obligations under the guarantee of the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor has granted a security interest in those certain “Tupperware” trademarks and service marks as well. The Indenture includes, among others, covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to (i) incur indebtedness secured by liens on certain real property, (ii) enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions, (iii) with respect to the Company only, consolidate or merge with another entity, or sell or transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets and (iv) sell the capital stock of the Guarantor or sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets or properties. See Note 118 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2019 filed with the SEC (the “2019 Form 10-K”) for further details regarding the Senior Notes.
During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company paid $56.4 million through Tender Offers and open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of $98.7 million. These transactions resulted in a pre-tax gain on debt extinguishment (including costs associated with the Senior Notes repurchase) of $40.0 million which was recorded in the Other expense (income), net line item. The gain on debt extinguishment resulted in basic earnings per share of $0.82 for the second quarter of 2020 and the respective year-to-date period. Any deferred debt issuance costs related to the purchased Senior Notes were expensed and recorded in the interest expense line item.
41


Since June 27, 2020 and through July 29, 2020, the Company paid $10.7 million through open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of $13.4 million. Independent of these transactions the Company continues to work with its advisors to explore opportunities to repurchase, refinance or extend the maturity of its debt.
Whether the Company will be able to repay or refinance the Senior Notes will depend on economic, financial, competitive and other factors that may be beyond its control, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and on the Company’s financial performance at the time. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures implemented to slow the spread of COVID-19 may negatively impact the Company's ability to repay or refinance the Senior Notes. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts the Company’s ability to repay or refinance the Senior Notes will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with certainty. Any refinancing of the Senior Notes may be at a higher interest rate and may require the Company to comply with additional covenants and obligations, which could further restrict the Company's business operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the Senior Notes may pursue certain remedies relating to the collateral securing the guaranty of the Senior Notes or pursue other remedies, in each case in accordance with the Indenture and the documents relating to such collateral, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Given the fast-moving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting uncertainty on financial markets and the economy as a whole, the Company’s capital position and availability of capital to fund the Company’s liquidity requirements, including repayment or refinancing of the Senior Notes, could be adversely impacted. The Company is taking proactive measures to maximize liquidity and increase available cash by reducing costs and spending across the organization.
See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further details regarding the Company's debt.
The Company monitors the third-party depository institutions that hold its cash and cash equivalents with an emphasis primarily on safety and liquidity of principal and secondarily on maximizing yield on those funds. The Company diversifies its cash and cash equivalents among counterparties, which minimizes exposure to any one of these entities. Furthermore, the Company is exposed to financial market risk resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency rates, and the possible liquidity and credit risks of its counterparties. The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to fund its working capital, capital spending needs and current and anticipated restructuring actions. This liquidity includes to the extent that it is accessible, its cash and cash equivalents, which totaled $122.1$120.0 million as of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, cash flows from operating activities, and access to its Credit Agreement, as well as access to other various uncommitted lines of credit around the world. The Company has not experienced any limitations on its ability to access its committed facility.
Cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) totaled $122.1$120.0 million as of September 28, 2019.June 27, 2020. Of this amount, $119.9$115.8 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. Of the cash held outside of the United States, approximately nineless than 1 percent was not eligibledeemed ineligible for repatriation due torepatriation. Other than deferred tax liability of $10.8 million for the levelwithholding tax liability for future distribution of past statutoryunrepatriated foreign earnings, by the foreign units in which the cash was heldno U.S. federal income taxes or other local restrictions.foreign taxes have been recorded related to permanently reinvested earnings.
The Company’s most significant foreign currency exposures include:
Brazilian real
Chinese renminbi
Indonesian rupiah
Malaysian ringgit
Mexican peso
South African rand
Business units in which the Company generated at least $100 million of sales in 20182019 included:
Brazil
China
Fuller Mexico
Germany
Indonesia
Tupperware Mexico
the United States and Canada
Of these units, sales by Brazil, China and the United States and Canada exceeded $200 million. A significant downturn in the Company’s business in these units would adversely impact its ability to generate operating cash flows. Operating cash flows would also be adversely impacted by significant difficulties in the addition,additions, retention and activity of the Company’s independent sales force or the success of new products, promotional programs and/or possibly changes in sales force compensation programs.
Pursuant to ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company is required to and does evaluate at each annual and interim period whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. As of June 27, 2020 the Company has $501.3 million of Senior Notes that will mature on June 1, 2021, which is within one year of the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued for the second quarter ended June 27, 2020. Based on the definitions in the relevant
42

accounting standards, management has determined that this condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This evaluation does not consider the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented. Management may evaluate the mitigating effect of its plans to determine if it is probable that (1) the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and (2) when implemented, the plans will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company expects to continue to address its outstanding current indebtedness through open-market purchases, future tender offers, exchange offers of debt for debt, cash or equity, or otherwise (debt refinancing). The Company has successfully retired $98.7 million of those Senior Notes at a discount to par during the second quarter and an additional $13.4 million subsequent to the end of second quarter and through July 29, 2020. In addition to the debt refinancing, the Company believes that its improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated sale of the Company's Orlando real estate and other non-core assets, and its forecasted availability under its Credit Agreement, will enable the Company to meet all its future debt obligations. However, as the debt refinancing and sale of non-core assets is conditional upon the execution of agreements with new or existing investors or the execution of sales agreements with third parties, which are considered outside of the Company’s control, the debt refinancing and sales of assets are not considered probable of occurring until such time as they are completed. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company generated $101.8 million of cash flows from operating activities, net of investing activities, through reductions in discretionary spending, revisiting investment strategies, improvements in working capital including inventory reductions, and reducing payroll costs, including through organizational redesign, employee furloughs, and permanent reductions in employee headcount. As of June 27, 2020, the Company is in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit Agreement. The Company currently forecasts that it will be in compliance with its financial covenants for at least one year from the issuance of these interim financial statements, after taking into consideration the measures noted above. If the impact of COVID-19 is more severe than currently forecasted this may impact the Company’s compliance with its financial covenants which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the impact of an Event of Default. See Part II, Item 1A under “The Outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic” for more information regarding COVID-19 and how it could affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
One of the Company's market risks is its exposure to the impact ofItem 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company may be impacted by interest rate changes on its borrowings. The Company accesses the short-term and long-term markets to obtain financing. Access to, and the availability of acceptable terms and conditions of, such financing are impacted by many factors, including: the credit ratings; liquidity and volatility of the overall capital markets; and the current state of the economy. The Company has elected to manage this risk through the maturity structure of its borrowings and the currencies in which it borrows.
Interest Rate Risk
Loans taken under the Credit Agreement are of a short duration and bear interest under a formula that includes, aat the Company's option, one of four different base rate selected dependent upon currency borrowed,rates, plus an applicable spread. The Company generally selects LIBOR as theits base rate. As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Credit Agreement dictated a base rate spread of 150 basis points, which gave the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 2.52.0 percent with a base rate spread of 188 basis points on LIBOR-based borrowings.its U.S. dollar and euro denominated LIBOR/EURIBOR-based borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced that it would phase-out LIBOR by the end of 2021. It is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2021, or if alternative rates or benchmarks will be adopted. Changes in the method of calculating LIBOR, or the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative rate or benchmark, may adversely affect interest rates. The Company cannot predict the effect of the potential changes to LIBOR or the establishment of alternative rates or benchmarks. The Credit Agreement allows for the use of select alternative rates and benchmarks and based on the assessment of such rates and benchmarks, the Company does not expect a material impact from the phase-out of LIBOR.
As of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of $323.7$298.8 million outstanding under theits Credit Agreement, with $173.7$137.2 million denominated in euro.Euro. If short-term interest rates varied by ten10 percent, which in the Company's case would mean short duration U.S. dollar and euro LIBOR, with all other variables remaining constant, the Company's annual interest expense would not be significantly impacted. Additionally, any change from the use of LIBOR to an alternative acceptable rate under the Credit Agreement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's annual interest expense.
The Company had routinely increasedincreases its revolver borrowings under the Old Credit Agreement during each quarter and expects to continue to do so under the Credit Agreement, to fund operating, investing and other financing activities. It also has in the pastactivities and expects to in the future, useuses cash available at the end of each quarter to temporarily reduce borrowing levels. As a result, the Company has higherincurs more interest expense and has higher foreign exchange exposure on the value of its cash and debt during each quarter than would relate solely to the quarter end cash and debt balances.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
A significant portion of the Company's sales and profit comescome from its international operations. Although these operations are geographically dispersed, which partially mitigates the risks associated with operating in particular countries, the Company is subject to the usual risks associated with international operations. These risks include local political and economic environments and relations between foreign and U.S. governments.
Another economic risk of the Company is exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the earnings, cash flows and financial position of its international operations. The Company is not able to project, in any meaningful way, the effect of these possible fluctuations on translated amounts or future earnings. This is due to the Company's constantly changing exposure to various currencies, the fact that all foreign currencies do not react in the same manner in relation to the U.S. dollar and the large number of currencies involved, although the Company's most significant income and cash flow exposures are to the Brazilian real, Chinese renminbi, Indonesian rupiah, Malaysian ringgit, Mexican peso and South African rand.
Although this currency risk is partially mitigated by the natural hedge arising from the Company's local product sourcing in many countries, a strengthening U.S. dollar generally has a negative impact on the Company. In response to this fact, the Company uses financial instruments, such as forward contracts, to hedge its exposure to certain foreign exchange risks associated with a portion of its investment in international operations. In addition to hedging against the balance sheet impact of changes in exchange rates, the hedge of investments in international operations also has the effect of hedging cash flow generated by those operations. The Company also hedges, with these instruments, certain other exposures to various currencies arising from amounts payable and receivable, non-permanent intercompany transactions and a portion of purchases forecasted for generally up to the following 15 months. The Company does not seek to hedge the impact of currency fluctuations on the translated value of the sales, profit or cash flow generated by its operations.
While the Company's derivatives that hedge a portion of its equity in its foreign subsidiaries and its fair value hedges of balance sheet risks all work together to mitigate its exposure to foreign exchange gains or losses, they result in an impact to operating cash flows as they are settled. For the year-to-date periods ended September 28,June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, and September 29, 2018, the cash flow impact of these currency hedges was inflows of $3.9 million and an outflow of $1.5 million and an inflow of $3.5$7.5 million, respectively.

44

The U.S. dollar equivalent of the Company's most significant net open forward contracts as of September 28, 2019June 27, 2020 were to buy $112.3$74.2 million of U.S. dollars, $15.0$28.3 million of eurosSouth Korean Won and to sell $53.4$125.8 million of Swiss francsEuros and $33.2$24.7 million of Mexican pesos. In agreements to sell foreign currencies in exchange for U.S. dollars, for example, an appreciating dollar versus the opposing currency would generate a cash inflow for the Company at settlement, with the opposite result in agreements to buy foreign currencies for U.S. dollars. The notional amounts change based upon changes in the Company's outstanding currency exposures. Based on rates existing as of September 28, 2019,June 27, 2020, the Company was in a net payable position of approximately $0.8$2.7 million related to its currency hedges under forward contracts. Currency fluctuations could have a significant impact on the Company's cash flow upon the settlement of its forward contracts.
A precise calculation of the impact of currency fluctuations is not practical since some of the contracts are between non-U.S. dollar currencies. The Company continuously monitors its foreign currency exposure and expects to enter into additional contracts to hedge exposure in the future. See further discussion regarding the Company's hedging activities for foreign currency in Note 1211 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company is subject to credit risks relating to the ability of counterparties of hedging transactions to meet their contractual payment obligations. The risks related to creditworthiness and non-performance have been considered in the determination of fair value for the Company's foreign currency forward exchange contracts. The Company continues to closely monitor its counterparties and will take action, as appropriate and possible, to further manage its counterparty credit risk.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company is also exposed to rising material prices in its manufacturing operations and, in particular, the cost of oil and natural gas-based resins, including the fact that in some cases resin prices are actually in, or are based on, currencies other than that of the unit buying the resin, which introduces a currency exposure that is incremental to the exposure to changing market prices. Resins are the primary material used in production of most Tupperware® products, and the Company estimates that 20192020 cost of sales will include approximately $106$86.0 million for the cost of resin in the Tupperware® brand products it produces and has contract manufactured. The Company uses many different kinds of resins in its products. About three-fourths of the value of its resin purchases are “polyolefins” (simple chemical structure, easily refined from oil and natural gas). The remaining one-fourth of the value of its resin purchases is more highly engineered. With a comparable product mix and exchange rates, a ten10 percent fluctuation in the cost of resin would impact the Company's annual cost of sales by approximately $11$8.6 million compared with the prior year. The amount the Company pays for its resins is impacted by the relative changes in supply and demand. The Company partially manages its risk associated with rising resin costs by utilizing a centralized procurement function that is able to take advantage of bulk discounts while maintaining multiple suppliers, and also enters into short-term pricing arrangements. It also manages its margin through cash flow hedges in some cases when it purchases resin in currencies, or effectively in currencies, other than that of the purchasing unit,unit. This is done through the pricing of its products, with price increases over time on its product offerings generally in line with consumer inflation in each market, and its mix of sales through its promotional programs and promotionally priced offers. It also, on occasion, makes advance material purchases to take advantage of current favorable pricing.

Real Estate Risk
The Company has a program to sell land held for development around its Orlando, Florida headquarters. This program is exposed to the risks inherent in the real estate development process. Included among these risks is the ability to obtain all necessary government approvals, the success of attracting tenants for commercial or residential developments in the Orlando real estate market, obtaining financing and general economic conditions, such as interest rate increases. Based on the variety of factors that impact the Company's ability to close sales transactions, it cannot predict when the program will be completed.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company will be detected.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of theCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's thirdsecond quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect its internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

PART II
II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
A number of ordinary-course legal and administrative proceedings against the Registrant or its subsidiaries are pending. In addition to such proceedings, there are certain proceedings that involve the discharge of materials into, or otherwise relating to the protection of, the environment. Certain of such proceedings involve federal environmental laws such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as well as state and local laws. The Registrant has established reserves with respect to certain of such proceedings. Because of the involvement of other parties and the uncertainty of potential environmental impacts, the eventual outcomes of such actions and the cost and timing of expenditures cannot be determined with certainty. It is not expected that the outcome of such proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon the Registrant.
As part of the 1986 reorganization involving the formation of Premark, Premark was spun-off by Dart & Kraft, Inc., and Kraft Foods, Inc. assumed any liabilities arising out of any legal proceedings in connection with certain divested or discontinued former businesses of Dart Industries Inc., a subsidiary of the Registrant, including matters alleging product and environmental liability. The assumption of liabilities by Kraft Foods, Inc. (now Mondelez International, Inc.) remains effective subsequent to the distribution of the equity of the Registrant to Premark shareholders in 1996.
Beginning in February 2020, a number of putative stockholder class actions and shareholder derivative actions were filed against the Company and certain current and former officers and directors. The putative stockholder class actions allege that statements in public filings between January 30, 2019 and February 24, 2020 (the “potential class period”) regarding the Company’s disclosure of controls and procedures and financial guidance, as well as the need for an amendment of its credit facility, violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Act of 1934. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class of stockholders who purchased the Company’s shares during the potential class period and demand unspecified monetary damages. The cases have been consolidated and are pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The shareholder derivative actions allege that certain officers and directors breached fiduciary duties to the Company, were unjustly enriched, and violated Sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Act of 1934, on generally the same fact pattern. Two cases are pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida and have been consolidated; another case is pending in the Court of the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida, Circuit Civil Division. The Company believes the complaints and allegations to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against the actions. The Company is unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of these actions would have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Reference is made to “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 20182019 Form 10-K for information concerning risk factors. The Company is adding the following risk factors as set forth below.

The following risk factors should be read in conjunction with, and supplement, the risk factors set forth in “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the 20182019 Form 10-K. Before making an investment in the Company’s securities, investors should carefully consider the risk factors discussed below, together with the other information in this Report, including the sectionsections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the other reports and materials filed by the Company with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known by the Company or that are currently deemed immaterial may also impair the Company’s business operations. If any of these risks actually occur, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.
Operational Risk
Operational risk generally refers to the risk of loss resulting from the Company’s operations, including those operations performed for the Company by third parties. This would include but is not limited to the risk of fraud by employees or persons outside the Company, the execution of unauthorized transactions by employees or others, errors relating to transaction processing, breaches of the internal control system and compliance requirements, and unplanned interruptions in service. This risk of loss also includes the potential legal or regulatory actions that could arise as a result of an operational deficiency, or as a result of noncompliance with applicable regulatory standards. The Company must comply with a number of legal and regulatory requirements, including those under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended.
The Company operates in many markets and relies on the ability of its employees and systems to properly process a high number of transactions. In the event of a breakdown in internal control systems, improper operation of systems or improper employee actions, the Company could suffer financial loss, face regulatory action and suffer damage to its reputation. In order to address this risk, management maintains a system of internal controls with the objective of providing proper transaction authorization and execution, safeguarding of assets from misuse or theft, and ensuring the reliability of financial and other data.
The Company maintains systems of internal controls that provide management with timely and accurate information about the Company’s operations. These systems have been designed to manage operational risk at appropriate levels given the Company’s financial strength, the environment in which it operates, and considering factors such as competition and regulation. The Company has also established procedures that are designed to ensure that policies relating to conduct, ethics, and business practices are followed on a uniform basis. While there can be no assurance that the Company will not suffer losses in the future due to operational errors that the Company discovers, management continually monitors and works to improve its internal controls, systems, and corporate-wide processes and procedures.
Financial Covenants, Liquidity and Existing Debt
The Company must meet certain financial covenants as defined in the applicable agreements to borrow under its credit facilities. In the event the Company fails to comply with any of the covenants or to meet its payment obligations, it could lead to an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of other outstanding debt obligations. The Company may not have sufficient working capital or liquidity to satisfy its debt obligations in the event of an acceleration of all or a portion of its outstanding obligations. If the Company’s cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund its debt service obligations, it may be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures, or to sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance its indebtedness. The Company’s ability to restructure or refinance its debt will depend on the condition of the capital marketsmarket conditions and the Company’s financial conditionperformance at such time. Any refinancing, if at all, of the Company’s debt could be at higher interest rates and may require the Company to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict ourits business operations. The terms of existing or future debt instruments may restrict the Company from adopting some of these alternatives. While the Company recently amended its Credit Agreement to obtain relief regarding the financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a specified ratio of (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio), if the Company is unable to meet this modified Consolidated Leverage Ratio, or if the Company is unable to further modify it or other provisions of the Credit Agreement in the future, as may be needed, the Company may be held in default, which could result in the termination of the revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement, the acceleration of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, and possibly other debt obligations under other agreements with cross default provisions, pursuit of certain remedies relating to the collateral securing the obligations under Credit Agreement, and the pursuit of other remedies, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.


On February 26, 2020, S&P downgraded the Company’s credit rating from BB+ to B and placed all of its ratings on Credit Watch with negative implication. On February 27, 2020 Moody’s downgraded the Company’s credit rating from Baa3 to B1. Subsequent to those dates, the Company’s credit ratings have been downgraded further by S&P and Moody’s, with S&P’s rating of the Company currently at CCC-, and Moody’s rating of the Company currently at Caa3.If the Company faces continued downgrades in its credit rating, the Company could experience further strains on its liquidity and capital resources.

The Company previously issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes become due on June 1, 2021. The Notes were issued under an indenture (the “Indenture”) between the Company and its 100 percent subsidiary, Dart Industries Inc. (the “Guarantor”) and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee. As security for its obligations under the guarantee of the Senior Notes, the Guarantor has granted a security interest in certain “Tupperware” trademarks and service marks. As security for its obligations under the guarantee of the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor has granted a security interest in those certain “Tupperware” trademarks and service marks, as well. The Indenture includes, among others, covenants that limit the ability of the Company to raise indebtedness or equity capital under certain circumstances. During the second quarter ended June 27, 2020 the Company paid $56.4 million through Tender Offers and open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of $98.7 million. Independent of these transactions the Company continues to work with its advisors to explore opportunities to repurchase, refinance or extend the maturity of its debt.

Pursuant to ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company is required to and does evaluate at each annual and interim period whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. As of June 27, 2020 the Company has $501.3 million of Senior Notes that will mature on June 1, 2021, which is within one year of the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued for the second quarter ended June 27, 2020. Based on the definitions in the relevant accounting standards, management has determined that this condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This evaluation does not consider the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented. Management may evaluate the mitigating effect of its plans to determine if it is probable that (1) the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and (2) when implemented, the plans will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. As such, the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 27, 2020 have been prepared on a going concern basis. Although the Company has taken, and plans to continue to take, proactive measures to enhance its liquidity position and provide additional financial
49

flexibility, there can be no assurance that these measures will be sufficient. The substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern may affect the price of the Company's common stock and the grade of its credit rating, may negatively impact relationships with third parties with whom the Company does business, including customers, vendors and lenders, may impact the Company's ability to raise additional capital or implement its business plan and may impact its ability to comply going forward with covenants in the Company's Credit Agreement.

Whether the Company will be able to repay or refinance the Senior Notes will depend on market conditions and the Company’s financial performance. Any refinancing, if at all, of the Senior Notes could be at a higher interest rate and may require the Company to comply with more covenants, which could further restrict the Company’s business operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the Seniors Notes may pursue certain remedies relating to the collateral securing the guaranty of the Senior Notes or pursue other remedies, in each case in accordance with the Indenture and the documents relating to such collateral, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
