Profitability Metrics ($ in millions except per share data) Second Quarter 2025 As Reported Adjusted Q2 2025 vs. 2024 Q2 2025 vs. 2024 Gross profit $ 622.8 0.5 % $ 622.8 0.5 % Gross profit margin 37.5 % (20) bps 37.5 % (20) bps Operating income $ 245.8 5.0 % $ 258.6 9.7 % Operating income margin 14.8 % 60 bps 15.6 % 120 bps Net income $ 175.0 (5.0) % $ 184.8 (0.4) % Earnings per share - diluted $ 0.65 (4.4) % $ 0.69 0.0 % Second Quarter 2025 Results Net sales increased 1% in the second quarter compared to the year-ago period and included a 1% unfavorable impact from currency. Organic sales increased 2%, driven by volume and product mix.
• Consumer segment net sales increased 3% from the second quarter of 2024 to $931 million, with minimal impact from currency. Organic sales increased 3%, driven by volume and product mix. • Flavor Solutions segment net sales decreased 1% from the second quarter of 2024 to $729 million, including a 1% unfavorable impact from currency. Organic sales were flat year-over- year, driven by a 1% increase from price offset by a 1% decrease in volume and product mix. Gross profit for the second quarter increased by $3 million from the comparable period in 2024. Gross profit margin contracted 20 basis points versus the second quarter of last year. This contraction was driven by costs to support increased capacity for future growth and higher commodity costs, partially offset by cost savings led by the Company's Comprehensive Continuous Improvement (CCI) program. Operating income was $246 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $234 million in the second quarter of 2024. Excluding special charges, adjusted operating income was $259 million compared to $236 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted operating income increased 10% from the year-ago period and included a 1% unfavorable impact from currency. In constant currency, adjusted operating income increased 11% from the year-ago period, due to decreased selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses driven by a shift in timing of stock-based compensation expense from the second quarter into the first quarter of 2025 and cost savings led by the CCI program, including SG&A streamlining initiatives, partially offset by lower gross margin, sustained brand marketing investments, and increased technology investments. • Consumer segment operating income, excluding special charges, increased 10% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the year-ago period to $164 million, with minimal impact from currency. The increase was primarily driven by decreased SG&A expenses. • Flavor Solutions segment operating income, excluding special charges, grew 10% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the year-ago period to $95 million, or 13% in constant currency, driven by product mix, pricing, and decreased SG&A expenses. Earnings per share was $0.65 in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $0.68 in the second quarter of 2024. Special charges lowered earnings per share by $0.04 per share and $0.01 per share in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Excluding the impact of special charges, adjusted earnings per share was $0.69 in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024. The comparable result was attributable to the impact of higher operating income and higher income from unconsolidated operations, offset primarily by a less favorable tax rate due to discrete tax items. Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Outlook McCormick's fiscal 2025 outlook continues to reflect the Company's prioritized investments in key categories to sustain strong volume trends and drive long-term profitable growth while appreciating the current uncertainty of the consumer and macro environment. The Company's CCI program is continuing to fuel growth investments while also driving operating margin expansion. The Company's fiscal 2025 outlook reflects plans to offset costs related to tariffs, which are currently in place and include a 10% tariff on all U.S. imported goods, an incremental 30% tariff on goods
imported from China into the U.S. as well as reciprocal tariffs from other countries. Most of our U.S. imports from Mexico and Canada are currently compliant with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. The Company's mitigating actions include: sourcing plans supported by advanced analytics, cost savings initiatives, and revenue growth management. Due to the ongoing uncertainty around potential new U.S. or retaliatory tariffs, the Company's outlook is based on tariffs currently in place and does not factor in any potential actions that may arise during the remainder of 2025. As Reported Constant Currency Expectations: Net sales growth 0% to 2% 1% to 3%(1) Drivers: • Total volume-led growth • Gradual improvement in China Consumer Operating income 2% to 4% Gross margin expansion impacted by increased commodity costs due to the global trade uncertainty and tariff costs, which we expect to mitigate. SG&A benefits from CCI, inclusive of streamlining initiatives, partially offset by growth investments, including brand marketing and digital. Anticipate $20 million in special charges primarily related to organizational and streamlining actions. Adjusted operating income 3% to 5% 4% to 6% Earnings per share (EPS) $2.98 to $3.03 2% to 4% Operating income growth, partially offset by: • Tax rate of 22% to 23% vs. 20.5% in 2024 • High-single digit year-over-year decline in income from unconsolidated operations due to U.S. dollar strengthening vs. Mexican peso partially offset by continued strength in McCormick de Mexico's underlying performance. Special charges expected to impact EPS by $0.05 in 2025. Adjusted EPS $3.03 to $3.08 3% to 5% 5% to 7% (1) Organic sales growth is defined as the impact of volume/mix and price and excludes the impact of acquisitions or divestitures, as applicable, and foreign currency, and is expected to be a 1% to 3% increase over the 2024 level. The Company expects foreign currency rates to unfavorably impact net sales by 1%, adjusted operating income by 1%, and adjusted earnings per share by 2%. For fiscal 2025, the Company expects strong cash flow driven by profit and working capital initiatives and anticipates returning a significant portion of cash flow to shareholders through dividends. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The following tables include financial measures of organic net sales, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted income tax rate, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. These represent non-GAAP financial measures which are prepared as a complement to our financial results prepared in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles. These financial measures exclude the impact, as applicable, of the following: Special charges - Special charges consist of expenses and income associated with certain actions undertaken by us to reduce fixed costs, simplify or improve processes, and improve our competitiveness. Included in special charges are transaction and integration costs. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are important. The exclusion of the items noted above provides additional information that enables enhanced comparisons to prior periods and, accordingly, facilitates the development of future projections and earnings growth prospects. This information is also used by management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends. These non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP; however, they should not be viewed as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, as they may calculate them differently than we do. We intend to continue providing these non-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions, ensuring consistency in our financial reporting. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the related GAAP financial measures follows:

(2) Income tax rate is calculated as income tax expense as a percentage of income from consolidated operations before income taxes. Adjusted income tax rate is calculated as adjusted income tax expense as a percentage of income from consolidated operations before income taxes excluding special charges of $217.4 million and $195.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $403.9 million and $393.9 million for the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Because we are a multi-national company, we are subject to variability of our reported U.S. dollar results due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Those changes can be volatile. The exclusion of the effects of foreign currency exchange, or what we refer to as amounts expressed “on a constant currency basis,” is a non-GAAP measure. We believe that this non-GAAP measure provides additional information that enables enhanced comparison to prior periods excluding the translation effects of changes in rates of foreign currency exchange and provides additional insight into the underlying performance of our operations located outside of the U.S. It should be noted that our presentation herein of amounts and percentage changes on a constant currency basis does not exclude the impact of foreign currency transaction gains and losses (that is, the impact of transactions
denominated in other than the local currency of any of our subsidiaries in their local currency reported results). We provide organic net sales growth rates for our consolidated net sales and segment net sales. We believe that organic net sales growth rates provide useful information to investors because they provide transparency to underlying performance in our net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, acquisitions, and divestitures, as applicable, have on year-to-year comparability. A reconciliation of these measures from reported net sales growth rates, the relevant GAAP measures, are included in the tables set forth below. Percentage changes in sales and adjusted operating income expressed on a constant currency basis are presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange. To present this information for historical periods, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the comparative year, rather than at the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year. As a result, the foreign currency impact is equal to the current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in the average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the comparative year.

These figures are then compared to the 2025 local currency projected results, which are translated into U.S. dollars at the average actual exchange rates in effect during the corresponding months of fiscal year 2024.
