ENERGIZER HOLDINGS, INC.
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
At September 30, 2013, there were no shares considered anti-dilutive. In the event the potentially dilutive securities are anti-
dilutive on net earnings per share (i.e., have the effect of increasing earnings per share), the impact of the potentially dilutive
securities is not included in the computation. There were approximately 0.4 and 0.7 anti-dilutive securities at September 30,
2012 and 2011, respectively, which were not included in the diluted net earnings per share calculations for these fiscal years for
the reason noted above.

The Company's Incentive Stock Plan was initially adopted by the Board of Directors in March 2000 and approved by
shareholders at the 2001 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This plan was superseded in January 2009 as the Board of Directors
approved a new plan, which was approved by shareholders at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "2009 Plan"). New
awards granted after January 2009 are issued under the 2009 Plan. Under the 2009 Plan, awards of restricted stock, restricted
stock equivalents or options to purchase the Company's common stock (ENR stock) may be granted to directors, officers and
employees. The 2009 Plan was amended and restated by approval of the shareholders at the January 2011 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders to set the maximum number of shares authorized for issuance under the plan to 8.0 million. For purposes of
determining the number of shares available for future issuance under the 2009 Plan, as amended and restated, awards of
restricted stock and restricted stock equivalents reduces the shares available for future issuance by 1.95 for every one share
awarded. Options awarded reduces the number of shares available for future issuance on a one-for-one basis. At September 30,
2013, 2012, and 2011 there were 2.7 million, 3.3 million and 4.6 million shares, respectively, available for future awards under
the 2009 Plan, as amended and restated. Since the original plan has been superseded, no further shares under this original plan
were available for future awards after the adoption of the 2009 plan, as amended and restated.
Options are granted at the market price on the grant date and generally have vested ratably over three to seven years. These
awards typically have a maximum term of 10 years. Restricted stock and restricted stock equivalent awards may also be
granted. Option shares and prices, and restricted stock and stock equivalent awards, are adjusted in conjunction with stock
splits and other recapitalizations so that the holder is in the same economic position before and after these equity transactions.
Through December 31, 2012, the Company permitted employee deferrals of bonus and, in the past, permitted deferrals of
retainers and fees for directors, under the terms of its Deferred Compensation Plan. Under this plan, employees or directors,
that deferred amounts into the Energizer Common Stock Unit Fund were credited with a number of stock equivalents based on
the estimated fair value of ENR stock at the time of deferral. In addition, the participants were credited with an additional
number of stock equivalents, equal to 25% for employees and 33% for directors, of the amount deferred. This additional match
vested immediately for directors and vests three years from the date of initial crediting for employees. Effective January 1,
2011, the 33% match for directors was eliminated for future deferrals. Effective January 1, 2013, future deferrals of
compensation by employees is no longer permitted, thus eliminating any further Company matching for employee deferrals as
well. Amounts deferred into the Energizer Common Stock Unit Fund, and vested matching deferrals, may be transferred to
other investment options offered under the plan after specified restriction periods. At the time of termination of employment, or
for directors, at the time of termination of service on the Board, or at such other time for distribution, which may be elected in
advance by the participant, the number of equivalents then vested and credited to the participant's account is determined and an
amount in cash equal to the estimated fair value of an equivalent number of shares of ENR stock is paid to the participant. This
plan is reflected in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company uses the straight-line method of recognizing compensation cost. Total compensation cost charged against income
for the Company’s share-based compensation arrangements was $33.0, $44.9, and $37.3 for the years ended September 30,
2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and was recorded in SG&A expense. The total income tax benefit recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income for share-based compensation arrangements was $12.3,
$16.8, and $13.9 for the years ended September 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Restricted stock issuance and shares
issued for stock option exercises under the Company’s share-based compensation program are generally issued from treasury
shares.
Options
In October 2009, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to purchase 266,750 shares of ENR stock to certain
executives and employees of the Company. Total options of approximately 215,500 vested on the third anniversary of the date
of the grant. The options remain exercisable for 10 years from the date of grant. However, this term may be reduced under
certain circumstances including the recipient’s termination of employment.
