First Quarter 2024 Discussion

(All references to percent increase or decrease in the discussion below compare first quarter 2024 results to results from the first quarter of 2023 unless otherwise noted.)

Consolidated net sales were $668 million in the first quarter of 2024, an 8% decrease resulting from a 10% decline in volume, a 1% decrease in average unit price (AUP) and a 1% decrease in sales of door components, partially offset by a 4% increase from the Fleetwood acquisition.

Total Company gross profit was $165 million in the first quarter of 2024, down 3% as positive contributions from price-cost management initiatives and the Fleetwood acquisition were more than offset by impacts of lower volumes. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, however, increased 130 basis points to 24.8%.

Selling, general and administration (SG&A) expenses were $153 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 50% due primarily to an increase in acquisition and due diligence-related costs, including those related to our previously contemplated acquisition of PGTI, as well as incremental acquired SG&A from Fleetwood. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 880 basis points to 23% compared to the first quarter of 2023.

Net income attributable to Masonite was $61 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 59% primarily driven by an increase in other income related to receipt of the PGTI termination fee, partially offset by acquisition and due diligence costs, as well as higher income tax expense.

Adjusted EBITDA* was $97 million in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of 9% driven primarily by the impact of volume declines. Diluted earnings per share were $2.74, an increase of 60% compared to $1.71 in the comparable 2023 period. Diluted adjusted earnings per share* were $1.29 compared to $1.88 in the comparable 2023 period.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

At the end of the first quarter, total available liquidity was $507 million, inclusive of $230 million in unrestricted cash and $277 million of availability under our ABL Facility and AR Sales Program.

Cash provided by operations was $133 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $56 million in the prior year period. Capital expenditures were $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease from $28 million in the comparable period of 2023.

During the first quarter, Masonite did not repurchase any shares of stock.

Acquisition by Owens Corning

On February 8, 2024, Masonite and Owens Corning entered into a definitive agreement under which Owens Corning will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Masonite for $133.00 per share in cash. On April 25, 2024 Masonite shareholders voted to approve the combination and the transaction is anticipated to close in May 2024, subject to satisfaction of the remaining customary closing conditions.

In light of this pending transaction, Masonite does not plan to hold a live conference call to discuss first quarter results. Additional information on the Company’s results can be found on our Form 10-Q to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 7, 2024.
