    Newell Brands is a global manufacturer and marketer of name brand consumer and commercial products that are sold in nearly 200 countries around the globe.

    In April 2016, the Company then named Newell Rubbermaid, acquired Jarden Corporation ("Jarden"). Following the acquisition of Jarden, the Company was renamed Newell Brands.

    The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants used the term "core sales," a non-GAAP financial measure, to explain Newell Brands results to stockholders and the investment community, as well as to internally evaluate and manage the Company's business. According to the Company's earnings press releases during the Class Period, Defendants believe that the term "core sales" provided investors with a more complete understanding of Company sales trends by "providing sales on a consistent basis as it excludes the impacts of acquisitions [other than the Jarden acquisition, which it included in the core sales measure on a pro-forma basis starting in the second quarter of 2016], planned or completed divestitures, the deconsolidation of the Company's Venezuelan operations and changes in foreign currency from year-over-year comparisons."  In addition, Defendants misled investors about the synergies associated with newly acquired Jarden. Although the legacy Newell Brands and Jarden businesses looked similar on paper, unbeknownst to investors, they were operated in completely different fashions, with legacy Newell Brands employing a highly centralized model, while Jarden utilized a highly decentralized, more entrepreneurial model. This undisclosed difference in managerial style and culture caused significant internal discord that had a material adverse effect on the Company's operating performance during the Class Period.
