Non-GAAP Reconciliation

This material will reference certain non-GAAP financial

measures, which we believe to be useful to investors, although they

should not be considered superior to the measures presented in

accordance with GAAP.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures

to their comparable GAAP measures is included in the appendix and

in our earnings release, located on the Investor Relations section of

our website.

Note: This material will reference constant-dollar revenue

rates. Foreign currency impact is determined as the difference

between actual growth rates and constant-dollar growth rates. Actual

growth rates including foreign currency impact, are included in our

earnings release, located on the Investor Relations section of our

website.

Forward-Looking Statements

This material contains “forward-looking statements” that are made

pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation

Reform Act of 1995, including statements relating to revenue trends, cost

savings, annualized tax rate, impacts of foreign exchange, efforts to

implement new digital strategies, improved representative engagement

training, recruitment and service, product launches and advertising

spend. Because forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and

uncertainties, actual future results may differ materially from those

expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks

and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the possibility of

business disruption, competitive uncertainties, and general economic and

business conditions in Avon’s markets as well as the other risks detailed

in Avon’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Avon’s

other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Avon

undertakes no obligation to update any statements in this material after it

is posted to the Investor Relations section of our website.

Brazil

(12.4%) (11.2%) (12.5%)* (4.6%) (2.4%)

Better incentives, lower bad debt, less returns,

and portfolio simplification. Steady improvement in all areas

is helping to stem declining trends.

Mexico(6.3%) 0.1% 7.2% 2.3% 2.1%

Continued focus on training improving ARS. Implementing

accelerated approach to attract sales leaders and reignite

quality appointments.

Russia

(3.7%) (0.5%) (8.7%) (1.4%) (19.2%)

Overall Russian beauty market declined significantly.

Weaker Sales Leaders engagement caused lower Rep

numbers and activity. New leader and interventions

underway with a heavy focus on recruitment efforts across

all Sales Leaders segments.

Philippines(2.7%) 0.4% 3.7% 5.3% 12.0%

Higher ARS due to effective pricing. Regaining momentum

through Avon opportunity events outside the branches to

increase recruiting.

Argentina

19.1% 24.5% 18.7% 23.2% 44.8%

Adjusted commercial model for macroeconomic reality.

Aggressive pricing given local macroeconomic situation.

Active Reps up on training/segmented programs, E-Rep

pilot launched in March.
