Company Reports Q3 Revenue of $324.3M, Below Expectations
Reports Q3 revenue $324.3M, consensus $358.14M. "Demand trends were once again challenging in both the new construction and remodel markets with new construction softening throughout the quarter. We delivered Adjusted EBITDA margins of 6.7% for the third fiscal quarter, as lower volumes impacted fixed cost absorption," said Scott Culbreth, President and CEO. "Mitigating tariffs and reducing the impact of lower demand on the business remain our top priorities. Actions include structural cost reductions, supplier negotiations, alternative sourcing, and price increases. The estimated unmitigated tariff impact, in effect as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, represents approximately 3.5-4.0% of the Company's annualized net sales with the impact varying by product category. This impact does not include the potential increase on Section 232 tariffs to 50% on January 1, 2027, or any changes due to the Supreme Court decision on February 20, 2026. The Company is also focused on closing the previously announced merger transaction with MasterBrand, Inc., which will enable us to provide a broader product portfolio across expanded channels, advance our innovation capabilities, and create exciting opportunities for team members."
