Clorox Announces Simplified Operating Structure to Improve Execution

and Accelerate Growth

OAKLAND, Calif.,

faster execution across the enterprise to improve business performance.

As part of

the new structure, Chris Hyder, executive vice president and group president – Health & Hygiene (Health & Wellness and

International reportable segments), has been appointed executive vice president and chief operating officer, effective immediately. In

this expanded role, which consolidates leadership of all business units under a single executive, Hyder will drive end-to-end execution

across the businesses. This streamlined structure will reduce complexity, enhance accountability, and improve execution to strengthen

operational performance.

Nina Barton,

executive vice president and group president – Care & Connection (Household and Lifestyle reportable segments), will move into

a new role, executive vice president – chief growth & strategy officer. In this role, Barton will drive innovation, value superiority,

strategy, and portfolio shaping that structurally positions the company for faster growth. The commercial functions will report to this

role, enabling a more integrated and proactive approach to meet evolving consumer trends.

“As

we continue transforming Clorox into a faster-growing, more focused, digitally enabled company, we are evolving leadership to create

better execution – building on the foundational investments that have been completed as part of our IGNITE strategy,” said

Chair and CEO Linda Rendle. “This refined operating structure will help us move faster and deliver stronger results as we continue

to focus our investment behind faster-growing health and hygiene categories. Chris is a proven leader, with more than two decades of

experience at Clorox, deep operational expertise leading our Cleaning and International businesses, and a strong track record of accelerating

performance. Chris will play a critical role as COO in advancing our strategy and strengthening execution across all our businesses,

while Nina’s deep brand-building expertise will help drive innovation and brand value superiority. Nina brings a strong growth

orientation, passion for the consumer and success with insight-driven category expansion. I look forward to working with Chris and Nina

to drive sustainable, profitable growth and enhanced shareholder value creation that Clorox’s categories, brands and capabilities

are positioned to deliver.”

As announced

on May 28, the Clorox Board of Directors is undertaking a comprehensive search with a leading firm to execute its search for a new CEO.

The Board is committed to evaluating a broad range of candidates as they work to identify the right person to guide the company through
