Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the ~~balance sheet,~~financial statements ~~of income, comprehensive income, statements of shareholder’s equity and cash flows~~ prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ~~of America~~(“GAAP”) for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations.

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 ~~revenues~~sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

For the third quarter ended September 26, 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 ~~Impact of COVID-19:~~ ~~The global spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which~~COVID-19

COVID-19 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 first 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, including China, France, Italy, and the Philippines. The first quarter impact of COVID-19 largely affected March revenues, financial results and liquidity, specifically in the second half of the month. While the duration and severity of this pandemic is uncertain, the Company currently expects that its results of operations in the second quarter of 2020 will have the most significant impact of the effects of COVID-19, and that subsequent periods will also be negatively impacted. 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 of the pandemic 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 September 26, 2020 the Company has $380.2 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 third quarter ended September 26, 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.

In addition to the ~~impact~~expected debt refinancing, the Company believes that its improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan (as defined in Note 6: Re-engineering Charges), together with the anticipated proceeds from the sale of ~~COVID-19, including~~real estate and other non-core assets, and its forecasted availability under its Credit Agreement, will enable the Company to meet its future debt obligations. However, as the debt refinancing and sale of non-core assets is conditional upon the execution of agreements

Table of Contents

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 until such time as they are completed. The 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 third quarter ended September 26, 2020, the Company generated $60.7 million of cash flows from operating activities, net of investing activities, through reductions in discretionary spending, revisiting investment strategies, ~~the potential sale of land,~~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 ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company is in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit ~~Agreement. The~~Agreement, and the Company ~~currently forecasts~~believes that it will continue to 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.~~under its Credit Agreement. If the impact of COVID-19 is more severe than currently forecasted this may impact the Company’s compliance with its financial covenantswhich could have a material adverse effect on the Company. See Note 1016: Debt to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the impact of an Event of Default.

Standards Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”, a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the second quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract”, an amendment to existing guidance on the accounting for implementation, setup, and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is hosted by the vendor that is a service contract. Under the amendment, the requirement for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting environment that is a service contract is aligned with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred for an internal-use software license. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, an amendment to existing guidance on disclosure requirements on fair value measurement as part of its broader disclosure framework project, which aims to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. Under this amendment, certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurement were eliminated, modified and added. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have any impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, an amendment to existing guidance for the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments and subsequent updates to that amendment. This guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information when recording credit loss estimates. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Standards Not Yet Adopted

In March ~~30,~~ 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”, an optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the transition from the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) to an alternative reference rate. The ASU intends to address certain concerns relating to accounting for contract modifications and hedge accounting. These optional expedients and exceptions to applying GAAP, assuming certain criteria are met, are allowed through December 31, 2022. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company ~~drew $225.0 million~~continues to evaluate the impact of ~~revolving loans under~~the potential adoption of this amendment on its ~~Credit Agreement, $175.0 million~~Consolidated Financial Statements.

losses affecting the benefit obligation and an explanation of any other significant changes in the benefit obligation or plan assets. The amendment also removed certain required disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of adoption of this amendment and does not expect any impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2: Revenue Recognition

The Company defines a contract, for revenue recognition purposes, as the order received from the Company’s customer who, in most cases, is one of the Company’s independent distributors or a member of its independent sales force. Revenue is recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, which is upon shipment, and is recognized at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for the products sold, including various forms of discounts and net of expected returns which is estimated using historical return patterns and current expectation of future returns. The Company elected to account for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of the product as an activity to fulfill the promise to transfer the product rather than as an additional promised service. Generally, payment is either received in advance or in a relatively short period of time following shipment. When revenue is recorded, estimates of returns are made and recorded as a reduction of revenue. Contracts with customers are evaluated to determine if there are separate performance obligations that are not yet met. These obligations generally relate to product awards to be subsequently fulfilled. When that is the case, revenue is deferred until each performance obligation is met. Deferred revenue is recorded in the accrued liabilities line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Deferred revenue balance which was ~~drawn~~primarily related to payments received in advance for orders not yet shipped was as ~~a proactive measure given the uncertain environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide the Company with further financial flexibility. See~~ follows:

The cost of products sold line item includes costs related to the purchase and manufacture of goods sold by the Company. Among these costs are inbound freight charges, duties, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, depreciation expense, internal transfer costs and warehousing costs of raw material, work in process and packing materials. The warehousing and distribution costs of finished goods are included in delivery, sales and administrative ~~expenses ("DS&A").~~expenses. Distribution costs are comprised of outbound freight and associated labor costs. Fees billed to customers associated with the distribution of products are classified as revenue. ~~The distribution~~

~~Note 3:~~	~~Promotional Costs~~

Note 4: 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~~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~~delivery, sales and administrative 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.

Note 6: Re-engineering Charges

Re-engineering charges are mainly related to the transformation program, which was announced in January 2019 and re-assessed in December 2019 (collectively the “Turnaround Plan”) and the July 2017 revitalization program (“2017 program”). The Company continually reviews its business models and operating methods for opportunities to increase efficiencies and/or align costs with business performance.

The Company estimates that as of September 26, 2020, approximately $13.2 million of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. The Company is currently under examination or contesting proposed adjustments by various state and international tax authorities for fiscal years ranging from 2004 through 2018. It is reasonably possible that there could be a significant decrease or increase to the unrecognized tax benefit balance during the course of the next twelve months as these examinations continue, other tax examinations commence or various statutes of limitations expire. While the Company does not currently expect material changes, it is possible that the amount of unrecognized benefit with respect to the uncertain tax positions will significantly increase or decrease related to audits in various foreign jurisdictions that may conclude during that period or new developments that could also, in turn, impact the Company's assessment relative to the establishment of valuation allowances against certain existing deferred tax assets. An estimate of the range of possible changes cannot be made for remaining unrecognized tax benefits because of the significant number of jurisdictions in which the Company does business and the number of open tax periods.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law by the President of the United States on March 27, 2020. This legislation was aimed at providing relief for individuals and businesses impacted by the Coronavirus outbreak. The CARES Act included several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, eliminated the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses (NOL) and allowed businesses to carry back NOLs arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to the five prior tax years, suspended the excess business loss rules, accelerated refunds of previously generated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax credits, loosened the business interest limitation under section 163(j) from 30 percent to 50 percent, allowed for deferral of payroll taxes and established an employer retention credit. While the Company was able to claim employee retention credits, payroll tax deferrals and applied for a refund of its previous alternative minimum tax credits, the overall impact from the CARES Act was not material.

Note 14: Goodwill, Intangibles and Tradenames

The Company’s goodwill and tradenames relate primarily to the December 2005 acquisition of the direct-to-consumer businesses of Sara Lee Corporation. In the third quarter of 2020, the Company completed the annual impairment assessments for all of its reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets. As part of this testing, the Company analyzed certain qualitative and quantitative factors in completing the annual impairment assessment. The Company’s assessments reflected a number of significant management assumptions and estimates including the Company’s forecast of sales, profit margins, and discount rates, along with the royalty rate related to tradenames. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact the Company’s conclusions. Based on its assessments, the Company concluded there were no impairments.

Although no reporting units failed the assessments noted above, in management’s opinion, the goodwill associated with the Japan reporting unit is at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the long-term outlook for the business or in other factors such as the discount rate. The significant assumptions for the goodwill associated with the Japan quantitative impairment assessment included annual revenue growth rates and a discount rate utilized within the analysis, which impact the Company’s conclusion regarding the likelihood of goodwill impairment for the unit. Total goodwill associated with this reporting unit was $11.0 million as of September 26, 2020. Based on the 2020 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of Japan reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 11.0 percent. The projected future cash flows, which included revenue growth rates ranging from negative 15.5 percent to positive 9.0 percent with an average growth rate of 1.3 percent, were discounted at 9.0 percent.

Similarly, while no tradenames failed the assessment, in management’s opinion, the NaturCare tradename is at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the long-term outlook for the business or in other factors such as the royalty rate or discount rate. The significant assumptions for the quantitative impairment assessment of the NaturCare tradename included annual revenue growth rates, royalty rate, and the discount rate utilized within the analysis, which impact the Company’s conclusion regarding the likelihood of impairment of the tradename. Total carrying value of the NaturCare tradename was $11.5 million as of September 26, 2020. Based on the 2020 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of the NaturCare exceeded its carrying value by approximately 11.0 percent. The projected future cash flows, which included annual revenue growth rates ranging from negative 4.0 percent to 2.0 percent with an average growth rate of 1.3 percent and a royalty rate of 4.0 percent, were discounted at 10.0 percent.

Note 15: Derivative Financial 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 investment hedge.

Fair Value Hedges

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 expense (income), net. Pretax income on forward points was as follows:


	13 weeks ended				39 weeks ended
(In millions)	September 26, 2020		September 28, 2019		September 26, 2020		September 28, 2019
Forward points gain (loss) on fair value hedges	$	2.8	$	5.1	$	15.4	$	13.2

Table of Contents

Cash Flow Hedges

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 ~~$3.9~~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 the 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 ~~$4.3~~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 quarters and year-to-date periods of 2020 and 2019. 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 were:

Forward points gain (loss) from settlement of cash flow hedges	$	(0.6)	$	(1.0)	$	(2.0)	$	(3.1)

Net Investment Hedges

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward contracts and certain Euro denominated borrowings under its Credit Agreement, to hedge a portion of its net equity investment in international operations and classifies these as net investment 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. 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 the beginning of 2019 to include forward points in the assessment of effectiveness for net investment 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. The impact of forward points is being recorded in other comprehensive income and will remain there indefinitely since that is where the gains and losses on hedges of net equity are recorded. Based on the interest expense associated with forward points incurred for open net investment hedges as of December 30, 2018, the Company recorded an adjustment of $3.8 million, net of taxes, to accumulated comprehensive income to reflect this accounting policy change. The impact related to forward points on hedges of net equity investment is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. Changes in ~~re-engineering charges during~~fair value, net of tax, excluding any ineffective portion of the ~~first~~hedges recorded in other comprehensive income and the pretax income on forward points was as follows:


	13 weeks ended				39 weeks ended
(In millions)	September 26, 2020		September 28, 2019		September 26, 2020		September 28, 2019

Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years, or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's discretion and renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised have been included in the lease term. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Credit Agreement

On March 29, 2019, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Tupperware Nederland B.V., Administradora Dart, S. de R.L. de C.V., and Tupperware Brands Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. (the “Subsidiary Borrowers”), amended and restated ~~its~~their multicurrency Credit Agreement (as further amended byvia an Amendment No. 1 dated August 28, 2019, ~~(so as amended,~~ the ~~"Credit Agreement"~~“Credit Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), swingline lender, joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner, and Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as syndication agents, joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners. 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 credit facility in an aggregate amount of $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 $50.0 million of the Facility Amount, and (iii) a swingline facility, available up to $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 $325.0 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 $200.0 million (for a maximum aggregate Facility Amount of $850.0 million), subject to certain conditions. As of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of ~~$388.1~~$384.1 million outstanding under its Credit Agreement, with ~~$245.1~~$171.1 million of that amount denominated in Euro.

Table of Contents

Loans made under the Credit Agreement will be composed of (i) “Eurocurrency Borrowings”, bearing interest determined in reference to the ~~London interbank offered rate ("LIBOR")~~LIBOR or the EURIBOR rate for the applicable currency and interest period, plus a margin, and/or (ii) “ABR Borrowings”, bearing interest at the sum of (A) the greatest of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the NYFRB rate plus 0.5 percent, and (z) adjusted LIBOR on such day (or if such day is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day) for a deposit in U.S. dollars with a maturity of one month plus 1 percent, and (B) a margin. 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 of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 2.0 percent with a base rate spread of ~~150~~188 basis points on LIBOR-based borrowings under the Credit Agreement that has a final maturity date of March 29, 2024.

Similar to the Old Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the ~~Company's~~Company’s subsidiaries to incur indebtedness and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to create liens on and sell assets, engage in certain liquidations or dissolutions, engage in certain mergers or consolidations, or change lines of business. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications.

On February 28, 2020, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) in order to modify certain provisions, including the ~~financial~~consolidated leverage ratio 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. 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):

Under the Credit Agreement and consistent with the Old Credit Agreement, Dart Industries Inc. (the “Guarantor”) unconditionally guarantees all obligations and liabilities of the Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers relating to the Credit Agreement, supported by a security interest in certain ~~"Tupperware"~~“Tupperware” trademarks and service marks. 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. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company is required to cause certain of its domestic subsidiaries to become guarantors and the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries are required to pledge additional collateral (the “Additional Guarantee and Collateral”).

For purposes of the Credit Agreement, consolidated EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude unusual, non-recurring gains as well as non-cash charges and certain other items. ~~As of March 28, 2020, and currently, the~~The Company ~~was~~is in compliance with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement was amended to prevent the Company from exceeding the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the four fiscal quarters ending in March ~~2020.~~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~~cross-default under cross-default provisions with respect to other of the ~~Company's~~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.

The Company routinely increases its revolver borrowings under the Credit Agreement during each quarter to fund operating, investing and financing activities and uses cash available at the end of each quarter to temporarily reduce borrowing levels. As a result, the Company incurs 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 balances.

At ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had ~~$318.4~~$299.6 million of unused lines of credit, including ~~$260.6~~$259.3 million under the committed, secured Credit Agreement, and ~~$57.8~~$40.3 million available under various uncommitted lines around the world.

Senior Notes

The Company currently has outstanding ~~approximately $600.0~~$380.2 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~~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 88: Financing Obligations to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 in the ~~Company's~~Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2019 for further details regarding the Senior Notes.

~~(Unaudited)~~

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~~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~~Company’s business operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the ~~Seniors~~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.

~~Note 11:~~	~~Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities~~

~~The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on~~During the ~~earnings, cash flows~~third quarter and ~~financial position~~year-to-date periods 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,2020 the Company ~~uses financial instruments to hedge certain of its exposures~~retired Senior Notes through tender offers and ~~to manage~~open-market purchases and recorded the ~~foreign exchange impact to its financial statements. At its inception, a derivative financial instrument is designated as a fair value, cash flow or~~pre-tax gain on debt extinguishment in the Other expense (income), net ~~investment 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 attributableline item. Any deferred debt issuance costs related 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 pointspurchased Senior Notes were expensed and ~~record their impact~~recorded in the ~~same income statement~~interest expense line ~~item that is used to present the earnings effect~~item.

Note 17: Leases

The Company ~~also uses derivative financial instruments~~leases certain equipment, vehicles, office space, and manufacturing and distribution facilities, and recognizes the associated lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Some leases include one or more options to ~~hedge foreign currency exposures resulting~~renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years, or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's discretion and renewal options that are reasonably certain ~~forecasted purchases~~to be exercised have been included in the lease term. The depreciable life of assets and ~~classifies these~~leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Certain lease agreements held by the Company include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Supplemental 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,information related to ~~cash flow hedges, will generally be reclassified within the next twelve months.

Maturities of lease liabilities as ~~applicable. In assessing hedge effectiveness, the Company made an accounting policy change as~~ of the 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 first quarters of 2020 and 2019. The Company recognized $0.8 million and $1.0 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 first quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company also uses financial instruments, such as forward contracts and certain Euro denominated borrowings under its Credit Agreement, to hedge a portion of its net equity investment in international operations and classifies these as net investment 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 gain of $56.2 million and a net loss of $13.1 million associated with these hedges in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. 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 the beginning of 2019 to include forward points in the assessment of effectiveness for net investment 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. The impact of forward points is being recorded in other comprehensive income and will remain there indefinitely since that is where the gains and losses on hedges of net equity are recorded. Based on the interest expense associated with forward points incurred for open net investment hedges as of December 30, 2018, the Company recorded an adjustment of $3.8 million, net of taxes, to accumulated comprehensive income to reflect this accounting policy change. The impact related to forward points on hedges of net equity investment recorded as a component of other comprehensive income in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019 was a loss of $6.3 million and a gain of $4.3 million, respectively.

~~The net cash flow impact from hedging activity for the first quarters of 2020 and 2019 was an outflow of $1.9 million and an inflow of $0.8 million, respectively.~~

~~The Company considers the total notional value of its forward contracts as the best measure of the volume of derivative transactions. As of March 28,~~September 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 were as follows:

~~Note 12:~~	~~Fair Value Measurements~~

Due to their short maturities or their insignificance, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, leased assets and liabilities and short-term borrowings approximated their fair values at March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019. The Company estimates that, based on current market conditions, the value of its Senior Notes was $386.9 million at March 28, 2020, compared with the carrying value of $599.8 million. The lower fair value resulted from changes, since issuance, in the corporate debt markets and investor preferences. The fair value of debt is classified as a Level 2 liability and is estimated using quoted market prices as provided in secondary markets that consider the Company's credit risk and market related conditions. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the Company's derivative instruments and related fair value measurements.

~~Note 14:~~	~~Income Taxes~~

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was 5.4 percent compared with 28.9 percent for 2019. The decrease in the rate was primarily attributable to the overall decline in profitability for the quarter ended March 28, 2020 as compared to the same period last year and lower cash tax costs driven by lower profits.

As of March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company's accrual for uncertain tax positions was $13.5 million. The Company estimates that as of March 28, 2020, approximately $13.2 million of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, will impact the effective tax rate. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the Company's global operations are recorded as a component of the provision for income taxes. Accrued interest and penalties were $0.7 million and $4.0 million as of the periods ended March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law by the President of the U.S. on March 27th, 2020. This legislation is aimed at providing relief for individuals and businesses impacted by the Coronavirus outbreak. The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, would eliminate the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses (NOL) and allow businesses to carry back NOLs arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to the five prior tax years, suspend the excess business loss rules, accelerate refunds of previously generated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax credits, loosen the business interest limitation under section 163(j) from 30 percent to 50 percent, allow for deferral of payroll taxes and establish an employer retention credit. While the enactment period impacts to the Company are expected to be minimal to none to income taxes, the Company continues to assess other aspects of the CARES Act, such as employee retention credits, payroll tax deferrals and the alternative minimum tax acceleration, for applicability.

~~Note 19:~~	~~New Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract”, an amendment to existing guidance on the accounting for implementation, setup, and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is hosted by the vendor that is a service contract. Under the amendment, the requirement for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting environment that is a service contract is aligned with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred for an internal-use software license. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table of ~~the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have any impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.~~Contents

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, an amendment to existing guidance for the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments and subsequent updates to that amendment. This guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information when recording credit loss estimates. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of the first quarter of 2020 and the adoption did not have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted~~

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”, an optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the potential adoption of this amendment on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”, a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this amendment on its Consolidated Financial Statements, including accounting policies and processes.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans”, an amendment to existing guidance on disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement plans. Under the amendment, the entity is required to disclose the weighted-average interest crediting rates used, reasons for significant gains and losses affecting the benefit obligation and an explanation of any other significant changes in the benefit obligation or plan assets. The amendment also removed certain required disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of adoption of this amendment and does not expect any impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.


~~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 39 weeks ended ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, compared with the 13 and 39 weeks ended ~~March 30,~~September 28, 2019, and changes in financial condition during the 1339 weeks ended ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020.

The ~~Company's~~Company’s core sales of environmentally friendly, reusable products, are derived from the distribution of its products through independent sales organizations and individuals, who may also be its customers, who then, in turn, sell 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~~Company’s primary business drivers are the size, activity, diversity and productivity of its independent sales organizations.

In 2020, the Company continued to sell directly and/or through its sales force as well as to end consumers via the ~~Internet~~internet and through business-to-business transactions, in which it sells products to a partner company.

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'~~readers’ ability to understand the ~~Company's~~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"~~“local currency” basis, or ~~"excluding~~“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").~~GAAP. Results on a local currency basis may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

~~The global spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which~~COVID-19 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 ~~first~~third quarter of 2020, the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business was most pronounced in ~~Europe~~Asia Pacific and ~~Asia Pacific~~Europe where the Company experienced partial or country-wide lockdowns of operations in various ~~markets, including China, France, Italy, and the Philippines.~~markets. The ~~first~~third quarter impact of COVID-19 ~~largely~~ affected ~~March revenues,~~ financial results and ~~liquidity, specifically in the second half of the month.~~liquidity. While the duration and severity of this pandemic is uncertain, the Company currently expects that its results of operations in the ~~second~~fourth quarter ~~of 2020 will have the most significant impact of the effects of COVID-19, and that subsequent periods will~~may also be negatively ~~impacted.~~impacted by COVID-19. 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.

The Company also continues to take certain measures as part of its Turnaround Plan (as defined in Note 6: Re-engineering Charges of the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report) 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. Additionally, the Company believes that improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated proceeds from the sale of real estate and other non-core assets in the coming year, will contribute to its ability to meet future debt obligations.

Net Sales

Reported sales ~~decreased 22.9~~increased 14.2 percent in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2020 compared with the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sales ~~decreased 17.4 percent. The average impact of higher prices was about 3 percent.~~increased 20.5 percent, primarily driven by:

~~The net decrease in local currency sales was mainly driven by decreases in:~~

•Brazil from ~~lower~~higher recruiting and a more active sales force, and use of digital tools

•Italy from an increase in business-to-business sales and higher core sales from a larger sales force

•Mexico (Fuller and Tupperware) from an increase in sales force activity and ~~recruiting mainly due to increased competition and lower consumer spending~~

China, from less outlet openings, a shift in product mix, and lower consumer spending. China had the earliest impact of COVID-19 beginning in January and extending throughout the quarter. China was able to partially mitigate the impact of this health crisis by leveraging e-commerce and social media capabilities and launching support programs to outlet owners.

~~France and Switzerland, mainly from lower~~higher business-to-business sales ~~compared with 2019 and France, from government mandated lock down due to COVID-19~~

~~Indonesia, from a less active sales force~~

~~Tupperware Mexico, from a less active and less productive sales force~~

This, along with new sales and marketing techniques, resulted in an 18 percent increase in our core sales as compared to 2019. The average impact of higher prices was approximately 3 percent.

Reported sales for the year-to-date period decreased 9.4 percent. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, sales decreased 2.5 percent, primarily driven by:

•China from a net reduction in studios, shift in product mix, lower consumer spending and studio activities disruption from COVID-19

•France from decrease in business-to-business sales

•the Philippines mainly due to longer closures and disruptions from government mandated lockdowns due to COVID-19

A more detailed discussion of the sales results by reporting segment is included in the segment results section in this Part I, Item 2.

As discussed in Note 34: Promotional Costs to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, the Company includes certain promotional costs in ~~DS&A.~~delivery, sales and administrative expense. As a result, the Company's net sales may not be comparable with other companies that treat these costs as a reduction of revenue.

Gross Margin

Gross margin as a percentage of sales was ~~65.5~~68.1 percent and ~~66.9~~66.2 percent in the ~~first~~third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. The factors leading to the ~~1.4pp~~1.9 pp increase primarily reflected:

•lower manufacturing costs in Europe

•lower resin costs in Europe and North America

•cost savings from the Turnaround Plan

For the year-to-date periods, gross margin as a percentage of sales was 66.8 percent in 2020, compared with 66.9 percent for the same period of 2019. The decrease was mainly from product mix primarily ~~reflected increased negative manufacturing variances, mainly volume, related to Brazil, Mexico~~in Asia Pacific and ~~United States and Canada,~~North America, partially offset by lower resin ~~costs.~~

As a result, the ~~Company's~~Company’s gross margin may not be comparable with other companies that include these costs in costs of products sold.

~~Operating Expenses~~Delivery, Sales and Administrative Expense

~~DS&A~~Delivery, sales and administrative expense as a percentage of sales was ~~64.6~~49.0 percent in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2020, compared with ~~53.9~~57.8 percent in 2019. The ~~10.7 pp increase~~8.8pp decrease in comparison primarily reflected:

•lower promotional expenses reflecting the benefits from implementation of right-sizing initiatives related to the Turnaround Plan, primarily in Brazil, Germany, Indonesia, Italy and Mexico (3.5pp)

•lower selling expenses mainly from lower bad debt expense, primarily in France and Fuller Mexico (3.1pp)

•lower administration and other expenses, reflecting the benefits from implementation of right-sizing initiatives related to the Turnaround Plan (2.8pp)

For the year-to-date period of 2020, delivery, sales and administrative expense as a percentage of sales increased 0.3 pp to 54.8 percent, from 54.5 percent in 2019, primarily reflecting increased administration and other expenses mainly due to fees for professional services firms supporting business turnaround efforts ~~leadership transition costs, net reduction of long-term~~and higher management ~~incentive costs last year versus expense in 2020 and lower absorption of fixed costs (7.4 pp)~~

~~increased selling expenses mainly from higher bad debt expense, primarily in France,~~incentives, higher commissions mainly in Indonesia ~~reflecting the new compensation program and outlet support expenses in response to COVID-19 in China (3.6 pp)~~

The Company segregates corporate operating expenses into allocated and unallocated components based upon the estimated time spent managing segment operations. The allocated costs are then apportioned on a local currency basis to each segment based primarily upon segment revenues. The unallocated expenses reflect amounts unrelated to segment operations. Operating expenses to be allocated are determined at the beginning of the year based upon estimated expenditures. Total unallocated expenses in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2020 ~~increased $16.6~~decreased $3.0 million compared with 2019, ~~reflecting:~~

reflecting a net gain on debt extinguishment of $9.8 million, partially offset by higher management incentives, currency translation losses mainly related to Argentina, non-recurring fees for professional services firms supporting business turnaround efforts and ~~leadership transition costs ( about $13.0 million)~~

Specific segment impacts are discussed in the segment results section in this Part I, Item 2.

Re-engineering ~~Costs~~Charges

Refer to Note 76: Re-engineering Charges 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~~include structural changes impacting how its sales force operates, as well as related asset ~~write downs.~~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 ~~$3.9~~$3.2 million and ~~$4.3~~$7.5 million in re-engineering charges during the ~~first~~third quarters of 2020 and 2019, and $30.3 million and $15.9 million of charges for the year-to-date periods, respectively. These re-engineering costs were mainly related to the ~~transformation program, which was announced in January 2019 and re-assessed in December 2019 (collectively the "Turnaround Plan") and the July 2017 revitalization program ("2017 program").~~Turnaround Plan.

The ~~turnaround plan was launched with the~~Turnaround Plan has a global focus to drive operational efficiency and right-size the cost structure with an emphasis on organizational realignment, leveraging of procurement and sourcing, driving innovation, and improving sales force engagement and consumer experiences through a contemporized and streamlined service model. Since the inception of the turnaround plan, a reassessment of costs and priorities has occurred with a shift from a segment to a global focus with increased emphasis on procurement, sourcing and organizational realignment. This plan is expected to run through 2021 and incur approximately $50.0 million in pretax cost, with 100 percent paid in cash.experiences. The Company incurred ~~$3.3~~$2.7 million and ~~$1.2~~$4.6 million in the ~~first~~third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily related to severance ~~costs, outside consulting services, project team expenses,~~costs. In the third quarter of 2020 the Company realized cost savings of approximately $60 million. For full year 2020 the Company is expected to incur approximately $30 million in pretax cost, with 100 percent paid in cash and ~~distributor support. Once fully executed, the~~to generate about $180 million in savings.

In relation to the 2017 program, the Company incurred ~~$0.6~~charges of $0.5 million and ~~$3.1~~$1.1 million ~~of charges~~ in the ~~first~~third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Under this program, the Company has incurred ~~$84.7~~$86.0 million of pretax costs starting in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2017 through ~~first~~the third quarter of 2020 and expects to incur an additional ~~$2.0~~$0.7 million of pretax re-engineering costs in the remaining of 2020. The annualized benefit of these actions 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;~~delivery, sales and administrative expense; however, overall profitability has not risen in light of lower sales and higher costs.

~~Net Interest Expense~~

~~Net interest expense was $9.7~~The Company incurred $1.8 million in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2019, related to other re-engineering charges.

Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets was $19.7 million in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2019. The 2019 expense was primarily related to impairment of Fuller Mexico goodwill.

Although no reporting units failed the assessments noted above, in management’s opinion, the goodwill associated with the Japan reporting unit is at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the long-term outlook for the business or in other factors such as the discount rate. The significant assumptions for the goodwill associated with the Japan quantitative impairment assessment included annual revenue growth rates and a discount rate utilized within the analysis, which impact the Company’s conclusion regarding the likelihood of goodwill impairment for the unit. Total goodwill associated with this reporting unit was $11.0 million as of September 26, 2020. Based on the 2020 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of Japan reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 11.0 percent. The projected future cash flows, which included revenue growth rates ranging from negative 15.5 percent to positive 9.0 percent with an ~~increase~~average growth rate of ~~$0.1~~1.3 percent, were discounted at 9.0 percent. Based on the discounted cash flow model and holding other valuation assumptions constant, Japan’s projected operating profits across all future periods would have to be reduced approximately 13.3 percent, or the discount rate increased to 10.0 percent, in order for the estimated fair value to fall below the reporting unit’s carrying value.

Similarly, while no tradenames failed the assessment, in management’s opinion, the NaturCare tradename is at risk of impairment in the near term if there is a negative change in the long-term outlook for the business or in other factors such as the royalty rate or discount rate. The significant assumptions for the quantitative impairment assessment of the NaturCare tradename included annual revenue growth rates, royalty rate, and the discount rate utilized within the analysis, which impact the Company’s conclusion regarding the likelihood of impairment of the tradename. Total carrying value of the NaturCare tradename was $11.5 million ~~compared~~as of September 26, 2020. Based on the 2020 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of the NaturCare exceeded its carrying value by approximately 11.0 percent. The projected future cash flows, which included annual revenue growth rates ranging from negative 4.0 percent to 2.0 percent with an average growth rate of 1.3 percent and a royalty rate of 4.0 percent, were discounted at 10.0 percent. Based on the discounted cash flow model and holding other valuation assumptions constant, the projected revenue associated with the tradename, across all future periods, would have to be reduced approximately 9.9 percent, the royalty rate reduced to 3.6 percent, or the discount rate increased to 10.9 percent, in order for the estimated fair value to fall below the tradename’s carrying value.

Gain (loss) on Disposal of Assets

Gain (loss) on disposal of assets was a loss of $32.6 million and gain of $12.1 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and a loss of $18.8 million and gain of $11.1 million in the respective year-to-date periods. The loss in the third quarter of 2020 was related to the ~~first quarter~~write-off of ~~2019.~~capitalized software implementation costs related to the front and back office standardization project that initiated in 2017, due to a shift in the business model and digital strategy set forward by the new leadership team. The ~~increase~~2020 year-to-date loss includes the write-off of capitalized software implementations costs that were partially offset by gains from the sale of a manufacturing and distribution facility in Australia. The 2019 gain was related to the sale of land near the Company’s Orlando, Florida headquarters and the sale of the French marketing office.

Interest Income

Interest income was $0.3 million and $0.6 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $1.0 million and $1.6 million in the respective year-to-date periods. Interest income is related to the interest earned on our cash balances.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $8.2 million and $10.4 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $30.5 million and $31.4 million in the respective year-to-date periods. The change in interest expense is related to a decrease in the ~~impact of higher interest on~~Company’s borrowings.

Other expense (income), net

Other expense (income), net was a gain of $10.1 million and $3.8 million in the third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and a gain of $60.2 million and $10.5 million in the respective year-to-date periods. The Company records foreign currency translation impacts and pension costs in this line item. This line item includes the gain on debt extinguishment of $9.8 million and $49.9 million in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2020.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the ~~first~~third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2020 was ~~5.4~~40.4 percent and 31.5 percent, respectively, compared with ~~28.9~~43.9 percent and 34.1 percent for ~~2019.~~the corresponding 2019 periods. The ~~decrease~~change in effective tax rate in the ~~rate~~third quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively, and in the respective year-to-date periods was ~~primarily attributable~~impacted by:

•a change in jurisdictional mix of earnings

•an unfavorable adjustment related to ~~the overall decline in profitability for the quarter ended March 28, 2020 as compared to the same period last year and lower cash tax costs driven by lower profits.~~a continued limitation of interest expense deductions requiring a valuation allowance

As discussed in Note 147: Income Taxes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, the ~~Company's~~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 $44.7~~was $34.4 million and $7.8 million in the ~~first quarter~~third quarters of 2020 ~~compared with~~and 2019, ~~which included a $4.7~~respectively, and $90.4 million ~~negative impact on~~and $84.1 million in the ~~comparison from~~respective year-to-date periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Company's net working capital position decreased by ~~$41.9~~$505.1 million compared with the end of 2019. Excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, net working capital decreased ~~$26.4~~$484.5 million, primarily reflecting:

•a ~~$57.5~~$456.1 million increase in short-term borrowings, net of cash and cash equivalents as the Senior Notes became current in June 2020 and an increase in borrowings under the Credit Agreement

•a ~~$1.4 million decrease in accounts receivable driven by lower sales at quarter-end, including from the impact of COVID-19~~

~~These were partially offset by favorable impacts from:~~

On ~~March 20,~~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 ~~Ba3~~Baa3 to ~~B3. On April 6, 2020, S&P downgraded~~B1. Subsequent to those dates, the Company’s credit ~~rating from B to CCC+. Although each downgrade exceeded the threshold for additional guarantee~~ratings have been downgraded further by S&P and ~~collateral requirements to be triggered under the Credit Agreement, at the time~~Moody’s, with S&P’s rating of the ~~downgrade~~Company currently at CCC-, and Moody’s rating of the Company ~~had already~~currently at Caa3. If the Company faces continued downgrades in its credit rating, the Company could also experience further strains on its liquidity and capital resources, higher cost of capital and decreased access to the capital markets.

On February 28, 2020, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) ~~on February 28, 2020. Among~~and among 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 domestic 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 specified ratio of (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA (the “Consolidated Leverage ~~Ratio~~Ratio”) that was not greater than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement was amended to prevent the Company from exceeding the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the four fiscal quarters ending in March ~~2020.~~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~~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 ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of ~~$388.1~~$384.1 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement, with ~~$245.1~~$171.1 million of that amount denominated in Euro. As of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 2.0 percent with a base rate spread of ~~150~~188 basis points on LIBOR-based borrowings under the Credit Agreement. As of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, and currently, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement.

~~At March 28,~~As of September 26, 2020, the Company had ~~$318.4~~$299.6 million of unused lines of credit, including ~~$260.6~~$259.3 million under the committed, secured Credit Agreement, and ~~$57.8~~$40.3 million available under various uncommitted lines around the world. With the agreement of its lenders, the Company is permitted to increase its borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement by a total of up to $200.0 million (for a maximum aggregate Facility Amount of $850.0 million) subject to certain conditions.

Table of Contents

The Company currently has outstanding ~~approximately $600.0~~$380.2 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,~~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 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 88: Financing Obligations to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 in the ~~Company's~~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 third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2020 the Company retired Senior Notes through tender offers and open-market purchases and recorded the pre-tax gain on debt extinguishment in the Other expense (income), net line item. Any deferred debt issuance costs related to the purchased Senior Notes were expensed and recorded in the interest expense line item. The details of these Senior Notes were as follows:


	13 weeks ended		39 weeks ended
(In millions)	September 26, 2020		September 26, 2020
Senior notes retired (face value)	$	121.1	$	219.8
Less: Cash paid	$	107.5	$	163.9
Less: Costs incurred	$	3.8	$	6.0
Gain on debt extinguishment (pre-tax)	$	9.8	$	49.9

Earnings per share from gain on debt extinguishment	$	0.20	$	1.02

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~~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.~~accurately predicted. 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~~Company’s business operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the ~~Seniors~~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 1016: Debt to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further details regarding the ~~Company's~~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 ~~$174.5~~$148.8 million as of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 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.

Table of Contents

Cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) totaled ~~$174.5~~$148.8 million as of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020. Of this amount, ~~$170.1~~$147.8 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. Of the cash held outside the United States, less than 1 percent was deemed ineligible for repatriation. Other than a deferred tax liability of ~~$8.8~~$10.8 million for the withholding tax liability for future distribution of unrepatriated foreign earnings, no U.S. federal income taxes or other foreign taxes have been recorded related to permanently reinvested earnings.

The Company’s most significant foreign currency exposures include:

•Brazilian ~~real~~Real

•Chinese ~~renminbi~~Renminbi

•Indonesian ~~rupiah~~Rupiah

•Malaysian ~~ringgit~~Ringgit

•Mexican ~~peso~~Peso

•South African ~~rand~~Rand

Business units in which the Company generated at least $100 million of sales in 2019 included:

•Brazil

•China

•Fuller Mexico

•Tupperware Mexico

•the United States and Canada

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 additions to and 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.

The Company expects to continue to address its outstanding current indebtedness through open-market purchases, tender offers, exchange offers of debt for debt, cash or equity, refinancing transactions or otherwise (“debt refinancing”). The Company has ~~taken,~~successfully retired $98.7 million and ~~plans~~$121.1 million of Senior Notes at a discount to ~~continue to take, certain measures, to enhance its liquidity position~~par during the second and ~~provide additional financial flexibility, including in response~~third quarters of 2020, respectively. In addition to the ~~impact~~expected debt refinancing, the Company believes that its improved profitability and revenue growth through the Turnaround Plan, together with the anticipated proceeds from the sale of ~~COVID-19, including~~real estate and other non-core assets, and its forecasted availability under its Credit Agreement, will enable the Company to meet 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 until such time as they are completed. The 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 third quarter ended September 26, 2020 the Company generated $60.7 million of cash flows from operating activities, net of investing activities, through reductions in discretionary spending, revisiting investment strategies, ~~the potential sale of land,~~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 ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company is in compliance with its financial covenants under its Credit ~~Agreement. The~~Agreement, and the Company ~~currently forecasts~~believes that it will continue to 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.~~under its Credit Agreement. If the impact of COVID-19 is more severe than currently forecasted this may impact the Company’s compliance with its financial covenantswhich could have a material adverse effect on the Company. ~~Additionally, during~~See Note 16: Debt to the ~~beginning~~Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the ~~second quarter~~impact of ~~2020, on March 30, 2020, the Company drew $225.0 million~~an Event of revolving loans under its Credit Agreement, $175.0 million of which was drawn as a proactive measure given the uncertain environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide the Company with further financial flexibility. 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.Default.

Under this program, there were no share repurchases~~suspended its dividend beginning in the ~~first quarters~~fourth quarter of ~~2020 or~~ 2019. ~~Since 2007, the Company has spent $1.39 billion to repurchase 23.8 million shares under this program.~~

Repurchases under the Company’s stock incentive programs are made when employees use shares to satisfy the minimum statutorily required withholding taxes. In the ~~first quarters~~year-to-date periods of 2020 and 2019, ~~1,127~~11,187 and ~~23,088~~25,947 shares were retained to fund withholding taxes, totaling ~~$0.01~~$0.2 million and ~~$0.70~~$0.8 million, respectively.

~~Item 3.~~	~~Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk~~

Item 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;~~ratings, liquidity and volatility of the overall capital ~~markets;~~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, at the Company's option, one of four different base rates, plus an applicable spread. The Company generally selects LIBOR as its base rate. As of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had a weighted average interest rate of 2.0 percent with a base rate spread of ~~150~~188 basis points on 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 ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company had total borrowings of ~~$388.1~~$384.1 million outstanding under its Credit Agreement, with ~~$245.1~~$171.1 million denominated in Euro. If short-term interest rates varied by 10 percent, which in the ~~Company's~~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.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

A significant portion of the ~~Company's~~Company’s sales and profit come 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~~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~~Company’s most significant income and cash flow exposures are to the Brazilian ~~real,~~Real, Chinese ~~renminbi,~~Renminbi, Indonesian ~~rupiah,~~Rupiah, Malaysian ~~ringgit,~~Ringgit, Mexican ~~peso~~Peso and South African ~~rand.~~

Rand.

Although this currency risk is partially mitigated by the natural hedge arising from the ~~Company's~~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~~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 ~~first quarters of~~year-to-date periods ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019, the cash flow impact of these currency hedges was an outflow of ~~$1.9~~$0.6 million and an ~~inflow~~outflow of ~~$0.8~~$1.5 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

The ~~U.S. dollar equivalent of the Company's~~Company’s most significant net open forward contracts as of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020 were to buy ~~$69.8~~the U.S. dollar equivalents of $58.4 million of ~~U.S. dollars, $12.2 million of euros~~South Korean Won and to sell ~~$19.6~~$83.4 million of ~~Swiss francs~~Euros and ~~$16.3~~$32.8 million of ~~Mexican pesos.~~United States Dollars. 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~~Company’s outstanding currency exposures. Based on rates existing as of ~~March 28,~~September 26, 2020, the Company was in a net receivable position of approximately ~~$9.0~~$1.4 million related to its currency hedges under forward contracts. Currency fluctuations could have a significant impact on the ~~Company's~~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~~Company’s hedging activities for foreign currency in Note 1115: Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities to the Consolidated Financial ~~Statements.~~Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.

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~~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 2020 cost of sales will include approximately ~~$80.0~~$99.2 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 the Company estimates that a 10 percent fluctuation in the cost of resin would impact the ~~Company's~~Company’s annual cost of sales by approximately ~~$8.0~~$9.9 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. 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 impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial real estate market, 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 other 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.

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) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) 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~~Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the ~~design and operation of the Company's~~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 the~~Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

PART II

II—OTHER INFORMATION


~~Item 1.~~	~~Legal Proceedings.~~

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

A number of ordinary-course legal and administrative proceedings against the ~~Registrant~~Company 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~~Company 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.~~Company.

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,~~Company, 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~~Company to Premark shareholders in 1996.

InBeginning in February ~~March and April~~ 2020, ~~three~~a number of putative stockholder class actions and ~~one~~ shareholder derivative ~~action~~actions were filed against the Company and certain current and former officers and directors. One putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California and the other three actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The putative stockholder class ~~action complaints~~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 ~~action complaint alleges~~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.

Reference is made to ~~“Part~~Part I, - Item ~~1A.~~1A, Risk ~~Factors”~~Factors in the 2019 Form 10-K for information concerning risk factors. The Company is adding the following risk factors as set forth below.

The following risk ~~factors~~factor should be read in conjunction with, and supplement, the risk factors set forth in ~~“Part~~Part I, - Item ~~1A.~~1A, Risk ~~Factors”~~Factors of the 2019 Form 10-K. Before making an investment in the Company’s securities, investors should carefully consider the ~~risk factors~~risks discussed below, together with the other information in this Report, including the sections 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.

Financial Covenants, Liquidity and Existing Debt

The ~~Outbreak~~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 ~~Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic~~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 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, among other things, on market conditions and the Company’s financial performance at such time. Any refinancing, if at all, of the Company’s debt could be at higher interest rates than the Company has received in the past and may require the Company to comply with more covenants, which could further restrict its 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, higher cost of capital and decreased access to the capital markets.

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. The Company has experienced and may continue to experience disruptions that prevent it from meeting the demands of its sales force and customers, including disruptions to the manufacturing of its products and its supply chain, disruptions to its distribution network, disruptions in or restrictions on the ability of its employees, contractors, sales force and other business partners to work effectively and disruptions to the shipment of its products. 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 $600.0previously issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes become due on June 1, ~~2021, which~~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 ~~extent~~Indenture includes, among others, covenants that limit the ability of the Company to raise indebtedness or equity capital under certain circumstances. During the year-to-date period ended September 26, 2020 the Company paid $163.9 million through tender offers and open-market purchases for the purchase of Senior Notes with a face value of $219.8 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 September 26, 2020 the Company has $380.2 million of Senior Notes that will mature on June 1, 2021, which is within one year of the ~~COVID-19 pandemic ultimately impacts~~date that the Consolidated Financial Statements are issued for the third quarter ended September 26, 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 September 26, 2020 have been prepared on a going concern basis. Although

Table of Contents

the Company has taken, and plans to continue to take, proactive measures to enhance its liquidity position and provide additional financial 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 its credit ratings, 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 ~~future developments, which are highly uncertain~~market conditions and ~~cannot be predicted with certainty. The impact of COVID-19 and measures implemented to slow~~ the ~~spread could also cause delay in, or limit the ability~~Company’s financial performance. Any refinancing, if at all, of the ~~Company’s sales force to make timely payments to the Company. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in~~Senior Notes could be at a ~~widespread health crisis that is adversely affecting the economies~~higher interest rate and ~~financial markets of many countries. During the COVID-19 pandemic and even after it has subsided,~~may require the Company ~~may continue~~ to ~~experience adverse impacts to~~comply with more covenants, which could further restrict the Company’s business ~~as a result~~operations. If the Company is unable to repay or refinance the Senior Notes, the holders of the ~~pandemic’s global economic impact, including any recession, economic downturn, government spending cuts, tightening of credit markets or increased unemployment that has occurred or~~Senior Notes may occur in the future, which could cause its ultimate customers and potential customers to postpone or reduce spending on its products or put downward pressure on prices. The Company's top priority is to protect its employees and their families, the sales force and consumers, and its operations from any adverse impacts. The Company is taking precautionary measures as directed by health authorities and the local government.

Individually and collectively, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely impact its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity. 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. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section, such as thosepursue certain remedies relating to the ~~Company’s level~~collateral securing the guaranty of ~~indebtedness, its ability to comply~~the Senior Notes or pursue other remedies, in each case in accordance with the ~~financial covenants contained in~~Indenture and the ~~agreements that govern the Company’s indebtedness and volatility of the Company’s common stock price.~~

~~Technology and Cyber-Security~~

The Company relies extensively on information technology systems to conduct its business, some of which are managed by third-party service providers. These systems include, but are not limited to, programs and processesdocuments relating to internal communications and communications with other parties, ordering and managing materials from suppliers, converting materials to finished products, receiving orders and shipping product to customers, billing customers and receiving and applying payments, processing transactions, summarizing and reporting resultssuch collateral, all of operations, complying with regulatory, legal or tax requirements, collecting and storing certain customer, employee, investor, and other stakeholder information and personal data, and other processes necessary to manage the Company’s business. Current and increased information technology security threats, and current and more sophisticated computer crime, including advanced persistent threats, pose a potential risk to the security of the information technology systems, networks, and services of the Company, its customers and other business partners, as well as the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of the data of the Company, its customers and other business partners. As a result, the Company’s information technology systems, networks or service providers could be damaged or cease to function properly or the Company could suffer a loss or disclosure of business, personal or stakeholder information, due to any number of causes, including catastrophic events, power outages and security breaches. Although the Company has business continuity plans in place, if these plans do not provide effective alternative processes on a timely basis, the Company may suffer interruptions in its ability to manage or conduct its operations, which may adversely affect its business. The Company may need to expend additional resources in the future to continue to protect against, or to address problems caused by, any business interruptions or data security breaches. Any business interruptions or data security breaches, including cyber-security breaches resulting in private data disclosure, could result in lawsuits or regulatory proceedings, damage the Company’s reputation or adversely impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. While the Company maintains insurance coverage that could cover some of these types of issues, the coverage has limitations and includes deductibles such that it may not be adequate to offset losses incurred.

The Company could also be adversely affected by system or network disruptions if new or upgraded information technology systems or software are defective, not installed properly or not properly integrated into its operations. Various measures have been implemented to manage the risks related to the implementation and modification of hardware and software, but any significant disruption or deficiency in the design and implementation of new or upgraded information technology systems or software could have a material adverse effect on the ~~Company’s business, financial position and results~~Company.
