This presentation contains forward-looking statements, such as projected operating results, earnings and cash flows, that are subject
to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance
or achievements expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. You should understand that the risks, uncertainties,
factors and assumptions listed and discussed in this presentation, including the following important factors and assumptions, could
affect the future results of Smucker following the transactions between P&G and Smucker (the “Transactions”) and could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: (i) volatility of commodity markets from which raw
materials, particularly corn, wheat, soybean oil, milk and green coffee beans, are procured and the related impact on costs; (ii) the
successful integration of P&G’s coffee business (the “Coffee Business”) with Smucker’s business, operations and culture and the
ability to realize synergies and other potential benefits of the Transactions within the time frames currently contemplated; (iii) crude oil
price trends and their impact on transportation, energy, and packaging costs; (iv) the ability to successfully implement price changes;
(v) the success and cost of introducing new products and the competitive response; (vi) the success and cost of marketing and sales
programs and strategies intended to promote growth in Smucker’s businesses, which will include the Coffee Business after the
completion of the Transactions; (vii) general competitive activity in the market, including competitors’ pricing practices and promotional
spending levels; (viii) the concentration of certain of Smucker’s businesses, which will include the Coffee Business after the completion
of the Transactions, with key customers and the ability to manage and maintain key customer relationships; (ix) the loss of significant
customers or a substantial reduction in orders from these customers or the bankruptcy of any such customer; (x) changes in consumer
coffee preferences, and other factors affecting the Coffee Business, which will represent a substantial portion of Smucker’s business
after the completion of the Transactions; (xi) the ability of Smucker and Folgers to obtain any required financing; (xii) the timing and
amount of Smucker’s capital expenditures, restructuring, and merger and integration costs; (xiii) the outcome of current and future tax
examinations and other tax matters, and their related impact on Smucker’s tax positions; (xiv) foreign currency and interest rate
fluctuations; (xv) other factors affecting share prices and capital markets generally; and (xvi) the other factors described under “Risk
Factors” in the registration statements filed by Folgers and Smucker with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the other
reports and statements filed by Smucker with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on
Form 10-K and the preliminary proxy materials prepared in connection with the Folgers transaction.
