Newell Brands Inc.

As a Nasdaq-listed public company, Newell Brands Inc.’s shareholder disclosure follows SEC beneficial-ownership reporting rules, under which only investors holding 5% or more of outstanding common stock must publicly report their positions on Schedule 13G or 13D. The information available therefore reflects major institutional holders rather than a complete shareholder register.

The largest reported holder is BlackRock, Inc., which disclosed beneficial ownership of 63,921,695 shares, or approximately 15.0% of outstanding common stock, in a Schedule 13G/A filed with the SEC reporting its position as of 30 June 2026. The Vanguard Group, Inc. has also reported a significant stake, most recently disclosing 44,892,843 shares, or approximately 10.6%, as of 5 March 2026. Both investors report their holdings as passive, index-related positions rather than as an attempt to influence or control the company.

No individual ultimate beneficial owner has been identified for Newell Brands Inc. Its share ownership is dispersed among institutional asset managers and public shareholders, none of which has filed as an active or controlling investor, and no ownership chain links any single person to a calculable effective ownership percentage.

Shareholder disclosure for Newell Brands Inc. is best described as major-shareholders-only: it captures reportable 5%-plus holders under SEC rules as of their respective filing dates but does not represent a complete or real-time shareholder base.

The underlying registry record for Newell Brands Inc. discloses five officers, all shown with an active work status and the role of Governor. Officer records for a Nasdaq-listed Delaware corporation such as Newell Brands Inc. are normally reported as company directors, and cross-checking against the company’s own SEC filings confirms that the five individuals named, James Craigie, Judith Sprieser, Ravichandra Saligram, Brett Icahn and Steven Strobel, were in fact directors of the company rather than officers holding a title of Governor.

This disclosed board composition corresponds to the board that took shape following a 2018 cooperation agreement between Newell Brands Inc. and investor Carl C. Icahn, under which several new independent directors, including Brett Icahn, joined the board. The underlying data is confirmed outdated: Ravichandra Saligram, who served as the company’s Chief Executive Officer and as a director, retired from both roles on 16 May 2023 according to the company’s own disclosures, meaning he can no longer be described as an active officer.

Newell Brands Inc. has undergone substantial further board changes that are not reflected in this dataset. Bridget Ryan Berman became Chair of the Board effective 8 May 2024. James Keane, retired President and Chief Executive Officer of Steelcase Inc., was elected to the board effective 15 February 2024, and Gary Pilnick, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of WK Kellogg Co, was elected to the board in 2025, expanding it to nine members. Chris Peterson serves as President, Chief Executive Officer and a board member.

Nationality and country of residence are not disclosed for any of the individuals named in the available records, and neither should be inferred from their names or from the general United States correspondence-country code shown against each record, which reflects only a service address for company correspondence rather than a residential address. Given the confirmed staleness of the underlying director data, officer information for Newell Brands Inc. is best treated as historical rather than current.

Newell Brands Inc. is the ultimate parent of the Newell Brands corporate group and is not itself controlled by another company. This is confirmed by the list of subsidiaries filed as Exhibit 21 to the company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2025, which identifies well over 380 subsidiaries across more than 50 countries held beneath Newell Brands Inc.

Verified direct and indirect subsidiaries include well-known operating entities such as The Coleman Company, Inc., Rubbermaid Incorporated, The Yankee Candle Company, Inc., Rubbermaid Commercial Products LLC and Newell Rubbermaid UK Holdings Limited, together with numerous holding, finance, sales and manufacturing entities incorporated in the United States and in jurisdictions including the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Germany, Mexico, Hong Kong and China, reflecting the group’s global manufacturing and distribution footprint across its Home and Commercial Solutions, Learning and Development, and Outdoor and Recreation segments.

Ownership percentages for individual subsidiaries are not separately disclosed in the Exhibit 21 filing, which lists subsidiary names and jurisdictions of organisation without stating the parent’s percentage interest in each entity; ownership levels below 100% therefore cannot be confirmed or ruled out for any specific subsidiary from this source alone.

Group information for Newell Brands Inc. is best described as full at the level of subsidiary identification, since the SEC filing provides a comprehensive list of subsidiaries dated to the same fiscal year-end as the company’s most recent annual report, though it does not disclose intercompany ownership percentages or voting control levels.
