First-Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

Net sales for the first quarter were $1,566.8 million, an increase of 23.7 percent from the same quarter last year.

Included in net income was $58.7 million of proceeds from a legal settlement.

Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA¹聽for the first quarter of 2022 was $193.9 million, an increase of 41.5 percent over the same pro forma period a year ago. The improvement was primarily driven by disciplined price actions taken to offset inflationary impacts partially offset by lower volume across all segments, manufacturing inefficiencies as a result of supply chain disruptions and labor constraints, and higher SG&A expenses.

鈥淥ur team’s focus on disciplined execution delivered record net sales and profitability,鈥� said Rose Lee, President and Chief Executive Officer. 鈥淲e continue to make significant progress towards becoming a premier exterior solutions provider by leveraging the strengths of our business model and optimizing our portfolio.鈥�

• Windows segment net sales for the quarter were $702.1 million, an increase of 33.2 percent versus the same period last year. On a pro forma basis, net sales¹聽increased 19.9 percent.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
