We believe this measure provides an important perspective of underlying business trends and results and provides a more comparable measure from year to year.

style=\"font-size:1pt;color:white\">Forward-Looking Statements In this presentation, statements that are not reported financial results or other historic information are &#8220;forward-looking  statements.&#8221; These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the Company's future financial position,  business strategy, targets, projected sales, costs, earnings, capital expenditures, debt levels and cash flows, and plans and objectives of management for future operations. The use of words such as &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;expect,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;project,&#8221; &#8220;continue&#8221; or  &#8220;plan&#8221; or similar terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements  by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain and are subject to risks, assumptions, and other  factors, some of which are beyond Brady&#8217;s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or  implied by such forward-looking statements.  For Brady, uncertainties arise from:  adverse impacts of the novel coronavirus  (&#8220;COVID-19&#8221;) pandemic or other pandemics; decreased demand for our products; our ability to compete effectively or to  successfully execute our strategy; increased cost of raw materials, labor and freight as well as raw material shortages;  Brady&#8217;s ability to develop technologically advanced products that meet customer demands; Brady&#8217;s ability to properly identify,  integrate, and grow acquired companies, and to manage contingent liabilities from divested businesses; difficulties in  protecting our websites, networks, and systems against security breaches; risks associated with the loss of key employees;  extensive regulations by U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and self-regulatory entities; litigation, including product liability  claims; foreign currency fluctuations; potential write-offs of goodwill and other intangible assets; changes in tax legislation  and tax rates; differing interests of voting and non-voting shareholders; numerous other matters of national, regional and  global scale, including major public health crises and government responses thereto and those of a political, economic,  business, competitive, and regulatory nature contained from time to time in Brady&#8217;s U.S. Securities and Exchange  Commission filings, including, but not limited to, those factors listed in the &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; section within Item 1A of Part I of  Brady&#8217;s Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2021 and in any subsequent filings on Form 10-Q. These uncertainties may cause Brady's actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in its forward- looking statements. Brady does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law. 2 </FONT></DIV>\n<P><HR noshade><P>\n<DIV style=\"page-break-before:always;\">&nbsp;</DIV>\n</DIV>\n<!-- f22q3conferencecallprese003.jpg -->\n<DIV style=\"padding-top:2em;\">\n<IMG src=\"https://cdn.kscope.io/b4029caf2c801f0e81ba2f3b208a4949-f22q3conferencecallprese003.jpg\" title=\"slide3\" width=\"1365\" height=\"1024\">\n<DIV><FONT size=\"1\" style=\"font-size:1pt;color:white\">Q3 F&#8217;22 Highlights Appointment of Russell R.
