SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES<div>NATURE OF OPERATIONS</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We are a leader in developing, manufacturing and/or marketing sorbent products. Our sorbent products are principally produced from clay minerals. Our absorbent clay products include cat litter, industrial floor absorbents, agricultural chemical carriers and animal feed additives. Our adsorbent products include bleaching clays, which are used for filtration of edible oils and for purification of petroleum-based oils. We also sell synthetic sorbents, which are used for industrial cleanup.</div><div> </div><div>PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Oil-Dri Corporation of America and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the Consolidated Financial Statements.</div><div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt">RECLASSIFICATION</div><div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"> Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period financial statements. These immaterial reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income.</div><div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"> </div><div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify">IMMATERIAL CORRECTION OF AN ERROR IN PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Subsequent to the issuance of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2020, we identified an error in our historical financial statements related to the classification of certain costs as selling, general and administrative expenses relating to the production of our inventory that should be classified as cost of sales. These costs generally relate to our annual discretionary bonus and 401(k) employer match for our manufacturing teammates, teammate salaries for individuals in our support functions that spend a portion of their time related to our manufacturing operations such as IT, and other costs mostly related to consultants and outside services.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, we evaluated the materiality of the error from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective, and concluded that the error was immaterial to our prior period interim and annual financial statements.

(first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. Inventory costs include the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, labor and other overhead costs. We performed a detailed review of our inventory items to determine if an obsolescence reserve adjustment was necessary. The review surveyed all of our operating facilities and sales groups to ensure that both historical issues and new market trends were considered. The obsolescence reserve not only considered specific items, but also took into consideration the overall value of the inventory as of the balance sheet date. We recorded inventory obsolescence reserves of approximately $641,000 and $926,000 as of July 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The lower obsolescence reserve is attributed to our focus on inventory management. The other category of inventories includes a variety of items including clay, additives, fragrances and other supplies and decreased from July 31, 2020 due to increased production. Finished goods inventory decreased due to sales volume. Conversely, packaging inventories increased from July 31, 2020 due to anticipated sales demand as well as an increase in the cost of packaging.</div><div style="text-align:justify">TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, where the local currency is the functional currency, are translated to U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates in effect at period end.

Our review is based on cash flow considerations and other approaches that require significant judgment with respect to volume, revenue, expenses and allocations. Impairment occurs when the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Much of our goodwill cannot be specifically assigned to one of our operating segments because of the shared nature of our production facilities; however, for purposes of our most recent impairment analysis we estimated the goodwill allocation and assigned $5,497,000 to the Retail and Wholesale Products Group and $3,765,000 to the Business to Business Products Group.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">We performed our annual impairment testing in the fourth quarter of fiscal years 2021 and 2020.

We will continue to consider the need to re-perform impairment testing throughout the year when circumstances such as unexpected adverse economic factors, unanticipated technological changes, competitive activities and acts by governments and courts indicate that an asset may become impaired.

A significant part of our overall mining cost is incurred during the process of removing the overburden from the mine site, thus exposing the sorbent material used in a majority of our production processes. These stripping costs incurred during production are treated as a variable inventory production cost and are included in cost of sales in the period they are incurred. Stripping costs included in cost of sales were approximately $1,920,000 and $1,722,000 for fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively. Pre-production overburden removal costs associated with opening a new mine during the development phase are deferred. Total pre-production costs, including the overburden removal costs, that were capitalized in fiscal years 2021 and 2020 were $1,810,000 and $535,000 respectively. Capitalized development costs are amortized when the sorbent material is removed from the mine and used to produce product for sale. At the end of fiscal year 2021, the amount of development costs that are being amortized is $478,000. </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Additionally, it is our policy to capitalize the purchase cost of land and mineral rights, including associated legal fees, survey fees and real estate fees. The costs of obtaining mineral rights, including legal fees and drilling expenses, are also capitalized. The amount of land and mineral rights included in land on the Consolidated Balance Sheets were approximately $13,637,000 and $2,165,000, respectively, as of July 31, 2021, and were $13,570,000 and $2,165,000, respectively, as of July 31, 2020. Any prepaid royalties that may be offset against future royalties due upon extraction of the mineral are also capitalized. Prepaid royalties included in current prepaid expenses and in non-current other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets were approximately $1,605,000 and $1,232,000 as of July 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify">RECLAMATION</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">We perform ongoing reclamation activities during the normal course of our overburden removal.

Major improvements and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the applicable assets are expensed as incurred. Interest expense may also be capitalized for assets that require a period of time to get them ready for their intended use.

Inventory costs include the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, labor and other overhead costs. We performed a detailed review of our inventory items to determine if an obsolescence reserve adjustment was necessary. The review surveyed all of our operating facilities and sales groups to ensure that both historical issues and new market trends were considered. The obsolescence reserve not only considered specific items, but also took into consideration the overall value of the inventory as of the balance sheet date. We recorded inventory obsolescence reserves of approximately $641,000 and $926,000 as of July 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The lower obsolescence reserve is attributed to our focus on inventory management. The other category of inventories includes a variety of items including clay, additives, fragrances and other supplies and decreased from July 31, 2020 due to increased production.

Stripping costs included in cost of sales were approximately $1,920,000 and $1,722,000 for fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively. Pre-production overburden removal costs associated with opening a new mine during the development phase are deferred. Total pre-production costs, including the overburden removal costs, that were capitalized in fiscal years 2021 and 2020 were $1,810,000 and $535,000 respectively. Capitalized development costs are amortized when the sorbent material is removed from the mine and used to produce product for sale. At the end of fiscal year 2021, the amount of development costs that are being amortized is $478,000. </div>Additionally, it is our policy to capitalize the purchase cost of land and mineral rights, including associated legal fees, survey fees and real estate fees.

The CARES Act provides for, among other things, deferral of the employer portion of social security taxes incurred through the end of calendar 2020. As permitted by the CARES Act, we deferred approximately $2,300,000 in payroll taxes in calendar year 2020. The $2,300,000 will be paid equally in the fourth quarters of calendar years 2021 and 2022; $1,150,000 in 2021 and $1,150,000 in 2022. The current portion of the accrual for these payroll taxes is included in Other within Accrued Expenses and the noncurrent portion of the accrual is included in Other within Noncurrent Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.</div> 2300000 2300000 1150000 1150000 <div style="text-align:justify">TRADE PROMOTIONS</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We routinely commit to one-time or ongoing trade promotion programs, primarily in our Retail and Wholesale Products Group.

Promotional reserves are provided for sales incentives made directly to consumers, such as coupons, and sales incentives made to customers, such as slotting, discounts based on sales volume, cooperative marketing programs and other arrangements. We use judgment for estimates to determine our trade spending liabilities. We rely on our historical experience of trade spending patterns and that of the industry, current trends and forecast data.</div>

All other advertising costs, including participation in industry conventions and shows and market research, are expensed when incurred. All advertising costs are part of selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising expenses were approximately $8,651,000 and $9,674,000 in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively.</div>

<div style="text-align:justify">REVENUE RECOGNITION</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">We recognize revenue when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with customers are satisfied. Our performance obligation generally consists of the promise to sell finished products to wholesalers, distributors and retailers or consumers and our obligations have an original duration of one year or less. Control of the finished products are transferred upon shipment to, or receipt at, customers' locations, as determined by the specific terms of the contract. We have completed our performance obligation when control is transferred and we recognize revenue accordingly.

<div style="text-align:justify">PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT COSTS</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">We provide a defined benefit pension plan for eligible salaried and hourly employees and we make contributions to fund the plan. We also provide a postretirement health benefit plan to domestic salaried employees who qualify under the plan’s provisions. The postretirement health benefit plan is unfunded. Our pension and postretirement health benefit plans are accounted for using actuarial valuations required by ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits. The funded status of our defined pension and postretirement health benefit plans are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the funded status that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost are recognized within other comprehensive income, net of income tax. In fiscal year 2020 we amended the defined benefit pension plan and the plan is now closed to new entrants.

Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. See Note 7 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.</div>The fair value of restricted stock was determined by the closing market price of our Common Stock on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares granted.

<div>NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify">Recently Issued Accounting Standards</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 848, Reference Rate Reform. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to account for debt, leases, contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate if certain criteria are met. The guidance is effective immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. We have debt agreements that reference LIBOR and to the extent that those agreements are modified to replace LIBOR with another interest rate index, ASC 848 will allow us to account for the modification as a continuation of the existing contract without additional analysis. We are currently evaluating the potential effects of the adoption of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements. </div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 740, Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance removes several specific exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and clarifies and makes amendments to improve consistent application of and simplify existing accounting for other areas in ASC 740. This guidance is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2022, with early adoption permitted. We have performed an initial analysis of the impacts of adopting this requirement and do not anticipate that it will be material to our Consolidated Financial Statements. </div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which requires companies to utilize an impairment model for most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other financial instruments, which include trade and other receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, to record an allowance for credit risk based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. In addition, this new guidance changes the recognition method for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities, which can occur as a result of market and credit risk, as well as additional disclosures. In general, this guidance will require modified retrospective adoption for all outstanding instruments that fall under this guidance. This guidance is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2023. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this requirement on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</div><div style="margin-top:11.25pt;text-align:justify"> There have been no other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by us which are expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.</div>

The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized into one of three categories based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Categories in the hierarchy are as follows:</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div>Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.</div><div>Level 2: Observable market-based inputs for similar assets or liabilities or valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly.</div><div>Level 3: Unobservable inputs.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they were valued using quoted market prices in active markets.

The fair value was estimated using the exit price notion of fair value and is classified as Level 2. The increase in fair value is attributable to the Amended and Restated Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement entered into in May 2020.

Our cash is held in banks which are covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; however, our cash balances are in excess of the maximum amount that is insured. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are subject to the financial condition of certain major customers, principally the customer referred to in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We generally do not require collateral to secure customer receivables.

PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS<div style="text-align:justify"> The Oil-Dri Corporation of America Pension Plan (“Pension Plan”) is a defined benefit pension plan for eligible salaried and hourly employees. Pension benefits are based on a formula of years of credited service and levels of compensation or stated amounts for each year of credited service. On January 9, 2020, we amended the Pension Plan to freeze participation, all future benefit accruals and accrual of benefit service, including consideration of compensation increases, effective March 1, 2020. Consequently, the Pension Plan is closed to new participants and current participants will no longer earn additional benefits on or after March 1, 2020. The amendment of the Pension Plan triggered a pension curtailment, which required a remeasurement of the Pension Plan's obligation. The remeasurement resulted in a decrease in the benefit obligation of approximately $6,632,000, which was recorded in Other Comprehensive Income, net of taxes of $1,592,000 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020 we offered terminated participants with vested benefits who have not yet begun receipt of benefits under the Plan the opportunity to receive their pension benefits in a single payment (the “Lump Sum Option”). We made payments in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 to those participants who elected the Lump Sum Option by the May 15, 2020 election deadline. The settlement expense was $2,012,000 and was recorded net of tax in Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On May 4, 2021 we purchased an annuity for $8,530,000 which decreased both our projected benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets and resulted in no change in the funded status of the pension plan. The settlement expense related to the annuity purchase was $631,000 and was recorded net of tax in Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">A postretirement health benefits plan is also provided to domestic salaried employees who meet specific age, participation and length of service requirements at the time of retirement. Eligible employees may elect to continue their health care coverage under the Oil-Dri Corporation of America Employee Benefits Plan until the date certain criteria are met, including attaining the age of Medicare eligibility. We have the right to modify or terminate the postretirement health benefit plan at any time.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">A 401(k) savings plan is maintained under which we match a portion of employee contributions. This plan is available to essentially all domestic employees following a specific number of days of employment. Our contributions to this plan, and to similar plans maintained by our foreign subsidiaries, were $2,784,000 and $2,035,000 for fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively. During fiscal year 2020, we changed the percentage of employer matching contributions from 50% of every employee dollar contributed up to 4% of earnings to 100% of every employee dollar contributed up to 6% of earnings. </div><div style="text-align:justify">Obligations and Funded Status</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">The following tables provide a reconciliation

DEFERRED COMPENSATION<div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Oil-Dri's deferred compensation plans permit directors and certain management employees to defer portions of their compensation and to earn interest on the deferred amounts. Participants have deferred $1,158,000 and $266,000 into these plans in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively. We recorded $187,000 and $171,000 of interest expense associated with these plans in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively. Payments to participants were $480,000 and $440,000 in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, respectively, and the total liability recorded for deferred compensation was $4,354,000 and $4,017,000 as of July 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">The Oil-Dri Corporation of America Annual Incentive Plan provides certain executives with the opportunity to receive a deferred executive bonus award if certain financial goals are met. No executive bonus was awarded for fiscal year 2021 as financial targets under the provisions of the plan were not achieved. $1,352,000 was awarded to certain executives for fiscal year 2020. These awards will vest and accrue interest over a three-year period.</div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Our deferred compensation plans are unfunded. We fund these benefits when payments are made, and the timing and amount of the payments are determined according to the plans' provisions and, for certain plans, according to individual employee agreements.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:36pt">Our SERP, which was terminated in fiscal year 2020, provided certain retired participants in the Pension Plan with the amount of benefits that would have been provided under the Pension Plan but for: (1) the limitations on benefits imposed by Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), and/or (2) the limitation on compensation for purposes of calculating benefits under the Pension Plan imposed by Section 401(a)(17) of the Code. The SERP liability was actuarially determined at the end of each fiscal year using assumptions similar to those used for the Pension Plan, see Note 8 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The SERP liability was $1,447,000 as of July 31, 2020, and we recorded expense related to the SERP of $34,000 in fiscal year 2020. On January 9, 2020, we amended the SERP to freeze participation and any excess benefit, supplemental benefit or additional benefit effective March 1, 2020. Consequently, the SERP was closed to new participants and current participants no longer earned additional benefits on or after March 1, 2020. The amendment of the SERP triggered a curtailment which required a remeasurement of the SERP's obligation. The remeasurement resulted in a decrease in the SERP liability and recognition of a curtailment gain of approximately $1,296,000 in fiscal year 2020, which was recorded in Selling, General & Administrative Expenses. Subsequent to the curtailment, the SERP was terminated effective June 30, 2020 and all participants were paid in the form of one lump sum in July 2021.</div>

The accrual for trade promotions and advertising is lower at July 31, 2021 than at July 31, 2020 due to a shift in timing of advertising programs and expense. Freight rates increased during fiscal year 2021 resulting in a higher accrual at July 31, 2021 than at July 31, 2020.

OTHER CONTINGENCIES<div> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We are party to various legal actions from time to time that are ordinary in nature and incidental to the operation of our business, including ongoing litigation. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these or other lawsuits, we believe that none of the pending proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In June 2020, the Company received notice from a former service </div>provider alleging a breach of contract regarding the payment of a contingency fee. Such party subsequently, in July 2020, filed a lawsuit seeking to require the Company to participate in binding mediation regarding this matter. Although we believe this claim to be without merit, as of July 31, 2021, we have determined a reasonable estimate of this liability within a range, with no amount within that range being a better estimate than any other amount, and have therefore recorded that estimate within Other accrued expenses. We believe that any loss related to this matter is unlikely to be material. However, the outcome of this legal matter is subject to significant uncertainties. The ability to predict the ultimate outcome of this legal matter involves judgments, estimates and inherent uncertainties. The actual outcome could differ materially from management’s estimates.

LEASES<div style="text-align:justify"> We have operating leases primarily for real estate properties, including corporate headquarters, customer service and sales offices, manufacturing and packaging facilities, warehouses, and research and development facilities, as well as for rail tracks, railcars and office equipment. Certain of our leases for a shared warehouse and office facility, rail track and railcars have options to extend which we are reasonably certain we will exercise and, accordingly, have been considered in the lease term used to recognize our ROU assets and lease liabilities. To determine the present value of the lease liability, we use an incremental borrowing rate, which is defined as the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow (on a collateralized basis over a similar term) an amount equal to the lease payments in similar economic environments. Further information about our accounting policy for leases is included in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.</div><div style="text-align:justify"> </div><div style="text-align:justify"> We have no material finance leases, and variable costs for operating leases are immaterial.
