% on pre-tax loss, which included the net unfavorable effective tax rate impact of goodwill and intangible asset impairment losses of 22.9%. The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate for the three-month period was primarily driven by the impact of non-deductible goodwill impairments and a less favorable geographic mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. jurisdictions primarily due to the changes made to our corporate entity structure in December 2024.

•Other expense/(income) was $22 million of income for the three months ended September 27, 2025 compared to $48 million of income for the three months ended September 28, 2024. This change was primarily driven by a $44 million net loss on the sale of a business recognized in the third quarter of 2025 associated with the Italy Infant Transaction, partially offset by an $18 million increase in interest income primarily due to interest earned on our available-for-sale securities.

Adjusted Operating Income decreased 16.9% to $1.1 billion for the three months ended September 27, 2025 compared to $1.3 billion for the three months ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to inflationary pressures in commodity and manufacturing costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, unfavorable volume/mix, and increased SG&A, primarily due to increased advertising expenses. These unfavorable impacts more than offset higher pricing and the favorable impact of foreign currency (0.1 pp).

Nine Months Ended September 27, 2025 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 28, 2024:

Operating income/(loss) decreased 433.9% to a loss of $5.8 billion for the nine months ended September 27, 2025 compared to income of $1.7 billion for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses that were $7.0 billion higher in the current year period. In addition to the impact of these non-cash impairment losses, operating income/(loss) decreased $457 million due to inflationary pressures in commodity and manufacturing costs that outpaced our efficiency initiatives, unfavorable volume/mix, and unfavorable changes in unrealized losses/(gains) on commodity hedges. These unfavorable impacts to operating income/(loss) were partially offset by higher pricing and decreased SG&A, primarily due to decreased advertising expenses and lower variable compensation expense.

Net income/(loss) decreased 1,158.0% to a loss of $6.5 billion
