Masco Corporation reported 2025 net sales of $7.56 billion, down 3% from 2024, as weaker volumes across the company more than offset price increases, especially in plumbing products. Excluding divestitures and currency, sales declined 2%.
Operating profit fell to $1.25 billion from $1.36 billion, with gross margin slipping to 35.4% from 36.2% due to higher commodity and tariff costs, lower volume and the prior sale of the Kichler lighting business. Net income was $810 million, slightly below 2024, while diluted EPS rose to $3.86, helped by share repurchases.
Plumbing segment sales increased 3% to $4.99 billion, driven by higher pricing, but profit was pressured by input costs and mix. Decorative Architectural Products sales declined 14% to $2.57 billion, reflecting lower coatings demand and the Kichler divestiture.
Masco generated $1.02 billion in operating cash flow, spent $156 million on capex, repurchased 8.5 million shares for $576 million, and paid $261 million in dividends.

The company began restructuring actions in late 2025, incurring about $18 million of charges with roughly $50 million more expected in 2026, and plans to integrate Liberty Hardware into the Plumbing Products segment.

Masco Corporation's Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary reported a family estate-planning move involving company stock. On December 10, 2025, the executive made a bona fide gift of 10,000 shares of Masco common stock at a price of $0.0000 per share, meaning no payment was received. The shares were moved from a trust where the executive and spouse were trustees and sole beneficiaries to a new trust where the executive is trustee and the spouse and children are beneficiaries. This changes how the shares are held within the family but reflects a non-sale transfer rather than an open-market transaction.
