Griffon Corporation filings document formal disclosures for a Delaware operating company with building products operations. Form 8-K reports furnish quarterly and annual financial results, including revenue, income from continuing operations, adjusted measures and operating discussion tied to residential and commercial demand, pricing, mix and costs.
Proxy and annual meeting filings cover board elections, advisory votes on executive compensation, auditor ratification and shareholder voting results.

Griffon Corporation is asking shareholders to vote at its 2026 annual meeting on three items: electing eleven directors for one-year terms, approving an advisory say‑on‑pay resolution, and ratifying Grant Thornton LLP as independent auditor for fiscal 2026. The Board recommends voting FOR all three proposals.
The Board is largely independent, with 10 of 11 directors independent and 45% of directors women or persons of color. Recent governance changes include fully declassifying the Board and reducing its size range to nine to eleven members. A lead independent director oversees executive sessions and Board evaluations.

The company returned $174 million to shareholders via dividends and buybacks and lowered net debt to EBITDA leverage from 2.6x to 2.4x. Executive pay is heavily performance-based, with most CEO compensation tied to multi‑year cash and equity incentives using metrics such as EBITDA, working capital, Core EPS, free cash flow, ROIC and relative TSR.
