Gibraltar Revises 2024 Financial Guidance
Solar industry headwinds continue to impact the Renewables business
Residential market slowdown continues in the second half of year
Gibraltar Industries, Inc., a leading manufacturer and provider of products and services for the residential, renewable energy, agtech and infrastructure markets, announced updates to its previous net sales, GAAP EPS and Adjusted EPS guidance, reflecting primarily the impact of ongoing market headwinds in both the Renewables and Residential businesses.
“The solar industry continues to deal with trade and regulatory uncertainties driven by the impact from the two independent AD/CVD investigations, the second of which is currently in process. With the expiration of the tariff moratorium on panels associated with the first investigation expiring on December 3, 2024, the industry is working diligently to complete panel installations where projects are permitted and ready to move forward,” said Chairman and CEO Bill Bosway. “With the second AD/CVD investigation scheduled to be finalized in the first quarter of 2025, we expect industry headwinds to improve during the first half of 2025. In addition, the Residential market, including the repair and remodel sector, remains slower than expected and this has delayed the timing and benefit of our participation gains as customers take longer to flush inventory from incumbent suppliers. As a result, we now expect our net sales to decline and to report GAAP and Adjusted EPS below last year for the third quarter. Based on the expected third quarter results and our current assessment for the fourth quarter, we are revising our 2024 guidance.”
