Net consumer and other product sales. Net consumer and other products sales for Fiscal 2016 increased $349.3 million, or 7.4%, to $5,039.7 million from $4,690.4 million for Fiscal 2015. The increase in net consumer product sales was primarily due to the impact of the AAG Acquisition that accounted for $277.3 million and the growth in organic net sales across the hardware and home improvement products, consumer batteries, home and garden control products, personal care products, global auto care and global pet supplies product lines. These increases were partially offset by the negative impact of foreign exchange of $126.2 million and a decrease in small appliances product lines. Organic net sales excludes the impact of foreign currency translation and acquisitions, and is considered a non-GAAP measurement (See “Non-GAAP Measures” section below for reconciliation of net sales to organic net sales).
