Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

     On August 2, 2012, The Clorox Company (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

     Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference is supplemental financial information.

     Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and incorporated herein by reference is a schedule that presents recast amounts of Net Sales and Earnings from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes of the Company’s reportable segments for the fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010. The recast data is presented because, beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company is reporting Natural Personal Care results outside of the U.S. in the International segment, rather than in the Lifestyle segment as it has done previously.
