BEACHWOOD, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- MasterBrand, Inc. (NYSE: MBC, the “Company,” or “MasterBrand”), the largest residential cabinet manufacturer in North America, today announced second quarter 2025 financial results.

“MasterBrand delivered a strong quarter, with year-over-year net sales growth driven by the acquisition of Supreme and incremental share gains, particularly in new construction,” said Dave Banyard, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our associates’ continued, disciplined use of The MasterBrand Way, further progress on our Supreme integration, and previous price and cost actions, allowed us to effectively navigate through the challenging external environment to deliver second quarter adjusted EBITDA above our expectations. We’re encouraged by our momentum and confident in our ability to deliver attractive full-year adjusted EBITDA margins while continuing to invest in the business and execute on our long-term growth strategy.”

“Today, we are also pleased to announce our merger agreement with American Woodmark, which will be a transformative step that will create the industry’s most comprehensive portfolio of trusted cabinet brands and products,” Banyard continued. “By combining two highly complementary businesses, the proposed merger is expected to result in a combined company with stronger channel partnerships, expanded geographic reach, enhanced operational agility, and the ability to deliver meaningful value. With a strengthened financial profile, the combined company is expected to be better positioned to generate strong free cash flow, navigate market cycles with greater resilience, and further invest in growth, automation, and technology. Leveraging the successful progress in our Supreme integration efforts, we believe we are well-positioned to realize approximately $90 million in run-rate cost synergies by the third year following transaction close.”

Second Quarter 2025

Net sales were $730.9 million, an increase of 8% compared to the second quarter of 2024, driven by a positive contribution of 10% growth from our Supreme acquisition and 3% growth from the flow through of our anticipated net average selling price (ASP) improvements, partially offset by volume declines of 5% in our base business, specifically with our customers servicing the repair and remodel market. Gross profit was $239.7 million, compared to $231.0 million in the prior year. Gross profit margin decreased 130 basis points to 32.8% on lower volume and unfavorable fixed cost leverage, partially offset by the positive contribution from Supreme, continuous improvement efforts net of inflation, and higher net ASP.

Net income was $37.3 million, compared to $45.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, due to higher SG&A expenses, primarily driven by the addition of Supreme, along with personnel inflation in our legacy business, and increased investment spending. These higher costs were partially offset by lower interest expense, which declined year-over-year due to the absence of one-time charges associated with the Senior Notes issued in June 2024 to fund the acquisition of Supreme. Net income margin was 5.1% compared to 6.7% in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $105.4 million, compared to $105.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin1 decreased 110 basis points to 14.4%, on lower volume and unfavorable fixed cost leverage, which more than offset savings from our continuous improvement efforts net of inflation, contributions from Supreme, and the benefit of anticipated net ASP improvements.

Diluted earnings per share were $0.29 compared to $0.35 in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per share1 were $0.40 compared to $0.45 in the second quarter of 2024.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

As of June 29, 2025, the Company had $120.1 million in cash and $418.6 million of availability under its revolving credit facility. Total debt was $998.7 million and our ratio of total debt to net income from the most recent trailing twelve months was 10.7x as of June 29, 2025. For the same period, net debt1 was $878.6 million and our ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA1 was 2.5x.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $53.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $96.1 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024. This decline was due to lower net income coupled with interest payments related to the Senior Notes issued in June 2024 to fund the acquisition of Supreme. Free cash flow1 was $25.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, compared to $77.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024.

During the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 1.4 million shares of common stock for approximately $18.1 million.

2025 Financial Outlook

For full year 2025, the Company expects the following:

  • Net sales year-over-year decrease of low single-digit percentage
    • Organic net sales decrease of mid-single-digit percentage
    • Acquisition-related net sales increase of mid-single-digit percentage
  • Adjusted EBITDA1,2 in the range of $315 to $365 million, with related adjusted EBITDA margin1,2 of roughly 12.0% to 13.5%
  • Adjusted diluted earnings per share1,2 in the range of $1.03 to $1.32

The Company continues to expect organic net sales performance to outperform the underlying market, as new products and channel specific offerings, and previously implemented price actions gain traction. In addition, the Company remains committed to its full-year objective of generating free cash flow in excess of net income.

This 2025 Financial Outlook only reflects the impact of tariffs in effect as of the date of this release. It does not reflect any other potential tariff impacts on Company costs or end market demand. The Company believes the dynamic nature of the tariffs, specifically the uncertainty of implementation, potential timing and duration, limits the usefulness of estimating this information. We undertake no obligation to update this outlook as circumstances evolve. Additionally, this outlook does not reflect any anticipated financial benefits from the proposed merger with American Woodmark Corporation (“American Woodmark”), nor does it include expected transaction-related costs.

“We saw meaningful improvements in performance throughout the second quarter, particularly in May and June, with stronger sales and adjusted EBITDA contributing to a solid result in the quarter,” said Andi Simon, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Our solid second quarter financial performance, along with our ability to navigate this challenging environment and an unchanged market outlook, gives us the confidence to maintain our previously stated guidance for the year. Further, our merger with American Woodmark is expected to strengthen our financial profile by unlocking meaningful cost synergies, enhancing free cash flow generation, and positioning the combined company to further invest in growth opportunities following the close of the transaction, which is expected in early 2026.”

-

We have not provided a reconciliation of our fiscal 2025 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted EPS guidance because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred and which may be excluded from adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted EPS. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions used for historical non-GAAP measures.

Transaction Details

MasterBrand and American Woodmark announced today that they have entered into a definitive agreement whereby MasterBrand will combine with American Woodmark via an all-stock transaction to accelerate value delivery. Under the terms of the agreement, at closing, American Woodmark shareholders will receive 5.150 shares of MasterBrand common stock for each share of American Woodmark common stock. The consideration implies a pro forma equity value of $2.4 billion and an enterprise value of $3.6 billion based on the exchange ratio and closing share price as of August 5, 2025. MasterBrand anticipates run-rate cost synergies of approximately $90 million by the end of year three and accretion to MasterBrand’s adjusted diluted EPS in year two, following close.

The transaction consideration is comprised solely of MasterBrand stock; however, MasterBrand plans to arrange a revolver expansion with its current banking group in order to pay off American Woodmark debt at close of the transaction, which is expected to occur in early 2026, subject to approval of the transaction by MasterBrand and American Woodmark shareholders, the receipt of regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) in this earnings release, certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules have been included. It is our intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance understanding of our financial information as prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our methods of determining these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methods used by other companies for these or similar non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.

We use EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share (“adjusted diluted EPS”), free cash flow, net debt, and net debt to adjusted EBITDA, which are all non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We evaluate the performance of our business based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBITDA as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is related to corporate functions, as opposed to operations. For that reason, we believe EBITDA is a useful metric to investors in evaluating our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing the impact of non-operational results and special items from EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted net income is calculated by removing the impact of non-operational results, including non-cash amortization expense, which is not deemed to be indicative of the results of current or future operations, and special items from net income. Adjusted net income margin is calculated as adjusted net income divided by net sales. Adjusted diluted EPS is a measure of our diluted earnings per share excluding non-operational results and special items. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors as they are representative of our core operations and are used in the management of our business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is a useful measure to investors because it is a meaningful indicator of cash generated from operating activities available for the execution of our business strategy, and is used in the management of our business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Net debt is defined as total balance sheet debt less cash and cash equivalents. We believe this measure is useful to investors as it provides a measure to compare debt less cash and cash equivalents across periods on a consistent basis. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is calculated by dividing net debt by the trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is used by management to assess our financial leverage and ability to service our debt obligations.

As required by SEC rules, detailed reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included in the financial statement section of this earnings release. We have not provided a reconciliation of our fiscal 2025 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted EPS guidance because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, and adjusted diluted EPS. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions used for historical non-GAAP measures.

TICK LEGEND:

[1] Restructuring charges are nonrecurring costs incurred to implement significant cost reduction initiatives and may consist of workforce reduction costs, facility closure costs, cessation of operations, and other costs to maintain certain facilities where operations have ceased, but which we are still responsible for. The restructuring charges for all periods presented primarily include workforce reduction costs, lease abandonment costs and asset disposals for facilities that have been closed, but not yet sold.

[2] Restructuring-related charges are expenses directly related to restructuring initiatives that do not represent normal, recurring expenses necessary to operate the business, but cannot be reported as restructuring under GAAP. The restructuring-related charges for all periods presented primarily include losses on disposal of inventories from exiting product lines, gains/losses on the sale of facilities closed as a result of restructuring actions, and costs resulting from the redeployment of equipment within the manufacturing footprint.

[3] Acquisition-related costs are transaction and integration costs, including legal, accounting and other professional fees, severance, stock-based compensation, and other integration related costs. These charges are primarily recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Acquisition-related costs are significantly impacted by the timing and complexity of the underlying acquisition related activities and are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. The acquisition-related costs incurred for all periods presented are primarily associated with the acquisition of Supreme Cabinetry Brands, Inc., which was announced in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and closed early in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, and are comprised primarily of professional fees and stock-based compensation.

[4] We exclude the impact of actuarial gains and losses related to our U.S. defined benefit pension plan as they are not deemed indicative of future operations. In 2024, the Company made the decision to terminate our defined benefit pension plan. During the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, the Company recognized a settlement charge of $0.2 million related to the final valuation of the pension plan.

[5] Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 reporting, management began adding back amortization of intangible assets in calculating adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS for all periods presented. Non-cash amortization expenses are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations.

[6] Non-recurring components of interest expense are one-time costs associated with the refinancing of debt facilities and usage of temporary debt facilities. The non-recurring components of interest expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 relate primarily to non-recurring write-offs of deferred financing costs resulting from the debt restructuring transaction. These charges are classified as interest expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance.

[7] In order to calculate Adjusted Net Income, each of the items described in Items [1] - [6] above reflect tax effects based upon an estimated annual effective income tax rate of 25.0 percent, inclusive of recurring permanent differences and the net effect of state income taxes and excluding the impact of discrete income tax items. Discrete items are recorded in the relevant period identified and include, but are not limited to, changes in judgment or estimates of uncertain tax positions related to prior periods, return-to-provision adjustments, the tax effect of relevant stock-based compensation items, and certain changes in valuation allowances for the realizability of deferred tax assets. Management believes this approach assists investors in understanding the income tax provision and the estimated annual effective income tax rate related to ongoing operations.
