(2) Other segment expense items for each reportable business segment include brand support, employee-related costs, shipping and handling costs, research and development costs, and certain other operating expenses (income).
(3) Depreciation consists of depreciation of property, plant, and equipment and amortization of integration and development costs capitalized in connection with cloud computing arrangements.

(5) See Note 1, “Description of the Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Separation-Related Costs,” for additional information regarding Separation-related costs.
(6) Restructuring expenses and operating model optimization initiatives relate to the 2026 Restructuring Initiative for the fiscal three and six months ended June 28, 2026 and the 2024 Multi-Year Restructuring Initiative for the fiscal three and six months ended June 29, 2025.
