The information in this Item 2.02, and the Exhibit attached to this Report, are furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K. Consequently, such items are not deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Such items may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Exchange Act or Securities Act of 1933 if such subsequent filing specifically references this Form 8-K.
On October 28, 2009, Newell Rubbermaid Inc. (the “Company”) reported its results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009. The Company’s press release, dated October 28, 2009, and Additional Financial Information, is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
The press release and Additional Financial Information contain non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G, a “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Operating and statistical measures and certain ratios and other statistical measures are not non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of the definition, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided, as a part of the press release and Additional Financial Information, a reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
The Company has used certain financial measures that are included in the press release and Additional Financial Information both in presenting its results to stockholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of its businesses. The Company’s management believes that these measures — including those that are “non-GAAP financial measures” — and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures:
| • | enable investors and analysts to compare the current non-GAAP measures with the corresponding non-GAAP measures used in the past, and |
| • | permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that Company management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance, reportable business segments and prospects for future performance and to gauge the Company’s progress in achieving its stated goals. |
The Company’s management believes that operating income, excluding restructuring charges, as well as “Normalized” earnings and earnings per share are also useful because they provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company’s continuing operations. The Company’s management believes that free cash flow, defined by the Company as cash generated from operations less capital expenditures, is useful to investors because it is an indication of amounts of cash flow that may be available for dividends, repayment of debt and further investment in future growth initiatives. The Company’s management believes that adjusted sales, as reflected in the Currency Analysis included in Exhibit 99.1, is useful to investors because it demonstrates the effect of foreign currency translation on reported sales. The Company’s management believes that “Normalized” earnings per share, which excludes restructuring charges and one-time events such as tax benefits and certain other charges, is useful to investors because it permits investors to better understand year-over-year changes in underlying operating performance. Another purpose for which the Company uses “Normalized” earnings per share and free cash flow is as performance goals that help determine the amount, if any, of cash bonuses for corporate management employees and other employees under the Company’s management cash bonus plan.
Table of Contents
While the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies.

Newell Rubbermaid Reports Third Quarter 2009 Results
Normalized EPS of $0.38, Ahead of Guidance and Prior Year Results
Gross Margin Improved 480 Basis Points to Last Year
Full Year Normalized EPS and Cash Flow Guidance Raised
ATLANTA, October 28, 2009 – Newell Rubbermaid (NYSE: NWL) today announced third quarter 2009 financial results, including normalized earnings per share, ahead of the company’s guidance and prior year results. The company reported strong operating cash flow and gross margin improvement and increased its guidance for full year 2009 normalized EPS and operating cash flow.
“I am pleased that we delivered third quarter earnings and cash flow ahead of guidance despite expected revenue declines stemming from sustained challenges in the economy,” said Mark Ketchum, president and chief executive officer of Newell Rubbermaid. “We are especially pleased with our gross margin improvement, which reflects continued benefits from our planned product exits as well as a more reasonable input cost environment compared with a year ago. Our successful management of costs and our ability to drive down working capital allows us to continue to make strategic SG&A investments, while raising guidance for full year normalized EPS and operating cash flow.”
Net sales declined 17.7 percent to $1.45 billion in the third quarter, compared to $1.76 billion in the prior year, in line with the company’s guidance of a decline in the high teens percent range. Core sales were down almost 10 percent, while planned product line exits and foreign currency translation reduced net sales by 6 percent and 2 percent, respectively.
Gross margin for the quarter was 37.4 percent, up 480 basis points from last year, as the positive impact from product line exits, moderating input costs and year-over-year pricing initiatives more than offset the effects of reduced manufacturing volumes.
Excluding Project Acceleration restructuring costs of $27.0 million in 2009 and $13.5 million in 2008, operating income was $192.3 million, or 13.3 percent of sales, in the third quarter 2009, compared to $180.4 million, or 10.2 percent of sales, in the prior year.
Normalized earnings, which exclude Project Acceleration restructuring costs, related impairment charges and associated tax effects, the dilutive impact in 2009 of the company’s convertible notes, and other items, were $0.38 per diluted share, ahead of the company’s guidance and compared to $0.35 per diluted share in the third quarter 2008. For the third quarter 2009, diluted earnings per share on a normalized basis excludes the impact of $0.02 per diluted share related to the conversion feature of the convertible notes issued in March 2009 and the associated hedge transactions. Other items in the third quarter 2008 include the net of tax impact of the company’s purchase of a call option with respect to its $250 million of 6.35% Reset notes due 2028 for approximately $52 million, or approximately $0.13 per diluted share, as well as a tax benefit of $3.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share. (A reconciliation of the “as reported” results to “normalized” results is included below.)

Net income, as reported on a GAAP basis, was $85.5 million, or $0.28 per diluted share. This compares to $55.0 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2008.
The company generated operating cash flow of $327.7 million during the third quarter, ahead of the company’s guidance of $200 to $250 million. The improvement was driven by the increase in earnings and working capital management, particularly inventory. This compares to operating cash flow of $364.3 million in the prior year. Capital expenditures were $37.0 million in the third quarter, compared to $43.9 million last year.
A reconciliation of the third quarter 2009 and last year’s results is as follows:

Nine Months Results
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 declined 17.2 percent to $4.16 billion, compared to $5.02 billion in the prior year. Foreign currency translation reduced net sales by 4 percent, while planned product line exits lowered net sales by 6 percent. Acquisitions increased net sales by 1 percent and core sales softness contributed the remainder of the net sales decline.
Gross margin was 36.7 percent, a 310 basis point improvement versus the prior year. The positive impact from planned product line exits, lower input costs and 2008 pricing actions more than offset the effect of reduced manufacturing volumes and unfavorable mix.
Normalized earnings, which exclude Project Acceleration restructuring costs, related impairment charges and associated tax effects, the dilutive impact in 2009 of the company’s convertible notes, and other items, were $1.04 per diluted share, compared to $1.11 per diluted share in the prior year. For the first nine months of 2009, diluted earnings per share on a normalized basis excludes the impact of $0.03 per diluted share related to the conversion feature of the convertible notes issued in March 2009 and the associated hedge transactions. Other items for the first nine months of 2009 include one-time costs of $0.01 per diluted share incurred for the early retirement of $325 million principal amount of medium-term notes and $0.01 per diluted share of other tax adjustments. Other items in the first nine months of 2008 were the same as those for the third quarter 2008. (A reconciliation of the “as reported” results to “normalized” results is included below.)

2009 Full Year Guidance
The company continues to expect net sales for the full year will be at the unfavorable end of its guidance of a 10 to 15 percent decline. Core sales are expected to decline in the high single digit percent range. Product line exits are expected to contribute 4 to 6 percent of the sales decline and foreign currency translation is expected to reduce sales by 2 percent. Acquisitions are expected to contribute about 1 percent of sales growth.
The company is raising its guidance for normalized EPS to a range of $1.27 to $1.32 per diluted share and for operating cash flow to approximately $550 million, which is net of approximately $100 million in restructuring cash payments.
2009 Fourth Quarter Guidance
The company anticipates net sales will decline 2 to 4 percent for the fourth quarter 2009. Core sales are expected to be flat to slightly negative for the fourth quarter and product line exits are projected to reduce sales another 3 to 5 percent. Foreign currency translation is expected to increase sales by approximately 2 percent. The company expects normalized earnings of $0.23 to $0.28 per diluted share and operating cash flow of approximately $135 million.

| (1) | Earnings per share in 2008 has been adjusted to give effect to the retrospective adoption of an accounting standard that requires all outstanding securities with rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends to be considered an outstanding share, without regard to whether the shares are earned in the future pursuant to vesting conditions or otherwise. |
| (2) | Items excluded from “normalized” results for 2009 consist of $87.0 million of restructuring costs, including asset impairment charges and employee termination and other costs, and the associated tax effects, $4.7 million of debt extinguishment charges, net of tax effects, as well as the dilutive impact of the convertible notes and related hedge transactions entered into during the first quarter of 2009. |
| (3) | Items excluded from “normalized” results for 2008 consist of $101.3 million of restructuring costs, including asset impairment charges and employee termination and other costs, and the associated tax effects, the net of tax impact of the cost to purchase a call option for $52.2 million associated with the extinguishment of $250 million of medium-term Reset notes, one-time tax benefits of $3.5 million, and a $0.5 million net loss related to discontinued operations. |

 Q3 2009 Earnings Call Presentation October 28, 2009 |
 2 Statements in this presentation that are not historical in nature constitute
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements relate
to information or assumptions about the effects of sales, income/(loss), earnings per share, operating income or gross margin improvements or declines, Project
Acceleration, capital and other expenditures, cash flow, dividends,
restructuring costs, costs and cost savings, inflation or deflation, particularly with respect to commodities such as oil and resin, debt ratings, and management's plans, projections and objectives for future operations and performance. These statements are accompanied by
words such as "anticipate," "expect," "project," "will," "believe," "estimate" and similar expressions. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those suggested by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our dependence on the strength of retail, commercial and industrial sectors of the economy in light of the global economic slowdown; currency fluctuations; competition with other manufacturers
and distributors of consumer products; major retailers' strong bargaining
power; changes in the prices of raw materials and sourced products and our
ability to obtain raw materials and sourced products in a timely manner from suppliers; our ability to develop innovative new products and to develop, maintain and strengthen our
end-user brands; our ability to expeditiously close facilities and move
operations while managing foreign regulations and other impediments; our ability to implement successfully information technology solutions throughout our
