Open the filing on EDGARGriffon Corporation Announces Second Quarter Results
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, May 7, 2026 - Griffon Corporation (“Griffon” or the “Company”) (NYSE:GFF) today reported results for the fiscal 2026 second quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Revenue for the second quarter totaled $421.9 million, a 1% decrease compared to $426.7 million in the prior year quarter, due to decreased volume of 6% primarily driven by residential, partially offset by favorable price and mix of 5% driven by both residential and commercial.
Income from continuing operations totaled $46.9 million, or $1.03 per share, compared to $49.8 million, or $1.06 per share, in the prior year quarter. Excluding all items that affect comparability from both periods, adjusted income from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure) was $48.1 million, or $1.05 per share, in the current year quarter compared to $49.5 million, or $1.05 per share, in the prior year quarter. For a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to adjusted income from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure), and earnings per share from continuing operations to adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure), see the attached table.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter was $97.8 million, a 4% decrease from the prior year quarter of $101.7 million, driven by the decreased revenue noted above, the unfavorable impact of decreased volume on overhead absorption, and increased material costs. For a definition of adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure), see the attached table.
“Our team delivered solid performance this quarter, and Griffon is on track for another strong year," said Ronald J. Kramer, Chairman and CEO of Griffon. "The strategic actions we announced in the quarter to streamline our business into a pure-play building products company are progressing well. Given our first half results, and continued confidence in our outlook, we are maintaining our financial guidance for the fiscal year."
"During our first half, we returned $72 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases while maintaining our net debt to EBITDA leverage," continued Mr. Kramer. "We will continue to follow our balanced capital allocation strategy to maintain our strong balance sheet while returning value to our shareholders."
Taxes
The Company reported pre-tax income from continuing operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and recognized effective tax rates of 27.8% and 26.3%, respectively. Excluding all items that affect comparability, the effective tax rates for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 27.7% and 27.8%, respectively.
Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and equivalents of $109.7 million and total debt outstanding of $1.4 billion, resulting in net debt of $1.3 billion. Leverage, as calculated in accordance with our credit agreement (see the attached table), was 2.4x net debt to EBITDA as of March 31, 2026 compared to 2.6x as of March 31, 2025 and 2.4x as of September 30, 2025. Free cash flow from continuing operations was $100.7 million and capital expenditures, net, were $17.6 million for the six month period ended March 31, 2026. At March 31, 2026, borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $436.8 million, subject to certain loan covenants. For a reconciliation and definition of free cash flow from continuing operations (a non-GAAP measure), to net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, see the attached table.
Share Repurchases
Share repurchases during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 totaled 0.4 million shares of common stock, for a total of $32.9 million, or an average of $78.03 per share. As of March 31, 2026, $247.0 million remained under the Board authorized share repurchase program. Since April 2023 and through March 31, 2026, the Company purchased 11.5 million shares of common stock or 20.1% of the outstanding shares, for a total of $610.9 million or an average of $53.21 per share.
Strategic Actions Update
On February 5, 2026, Griffon announced entering into a definitive agreement with ONCAP, the mid-market private equity platform of Onex Corporation (TSX:ONEX), to form a joint venture which will include the AMES U.S. and Canada businesses. In addition, Griffon announced the exploration of strategic alternatives for the AMES Australia and United Kingdom businesses, and the combination of Hunter Fan with the Home and Building Products (HBP) segment.
Griffon expects to close the joint venture with ONCAP by the end of June 2026. The strategic process for AMES Australia is active and ongoing, and Griffon is in the process of exiting the United Kingdom. Griffon expects these strategic actions to be completed by the end of the calendar year.
Starting with Griffon’s fiscal second quarter, AMES U.S., Canada, Australia, and UK are reported as discontinued operations, and Griffon reports the financial results of its continuing operations as a single segment.
2026 Outlook
Griffon's fiscal year 2026 outlook is unchanged from the first quarter, and is consistent with the expected contributions from the legacy HBP segment and Hunter Fan as included within Griffon’s guidance provided in November 2025.
Griffon expects fiscal 2026 revenue from continuing operations to be $1.8 billion. Adjusted EBITDA, presented to reflect Griffon's new reporting structure, is expected to be $458 million, excluding certain charges that affect comparability. Free cash flow from continuing operations, including capital expenditures of $50 million, is expected to exceed net income from continuing operations, with depreciation of $27 million and amortization of $15 million. Fiscal year 2026 interest expense is expected to be $93 million, excluding any interest income from the anticipated AMES joint venture. Griffon’s normalized tax rate is expected to be 28%.

Griffon uses adjusted income from continuing operations, and the related adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations as key metrics in evaluating performance. These key metrics are non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of retirement plan events, non-cash impairment charges, loss from debt extinguishment, acquisition related expenses and discrete and certain other tax items, as well as other items that may affect comparability, as applicable. Griffon believes this information is useful to investors. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to income from continuing operations, to adjusted income from continuing operations and earnings per share from continuing operations, to adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations:

Note: Due to rounding, the sum of earnings per common share and adjusting items, net of tax, may not equal adjusted earnings per common share.
(1) For the three and six months ended March 31, 2026, the impact of retirement plan events relates to non-cash charges of $1.6 million and $3.2 million included in Other, net associated with the establishment of a retiree medical plan. The Company will recognize a non-cash charge related to such plan of $5.4 million ratably over the first 10 months of fiscal 2026.
(2) The tax impact for the above reconciling adjustments from GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted income from continuing operations, and the related adjusted EPS from continuing operations, is determined by comparing the Company's tax provision, including the reconciling adjustments, to the tax provision excluding such adjustments.
(3) Discrete and certain other tax provisions (benefits) primarily relate to the impact of a rate differential between the statutory and annual effective tax rates on items impacting the quarter.
Griffon uses adjusted EBITDA as a key metric in evaluating performance. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as income before taxes from continuing operations, excluding interest income and expense, depreciation and amortization, strategic review charges, and non-cash impairment charges, as well as other items that may affect comparability, as applicable. Griffon believes this information is useful to investors. The following tables provides a reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA:

Griffon believes free cash flow ("FCF", a non-GAAP measure) from continuing operations is a useful measure for investors because it demonstrates the Company's ability to generate cash from operations for purposes such as repaying debt, funding acquisitions and paying dividends. FCF from continuing operations is defined as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures, net of proceeds. The following table provides a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations to FCF from continuing operations:
| For the Six Months Ended March 31, |
|---|
| (in thousands) | | 2026 | | 2025 |
| Net cash provided by operating activities - continuing operations | $118,314 | | $139,697 | |
| Acquisition of property, plant and equipment | (17,652) | | (25,938) | |
| FCF - continuing operations | $100,662 | | $113,759 | |
Net debt to EBITDA (Leverage ratio), a non-GAAP measure, is a key financial measure that is used by management to assess the borrowing capacity of the Company. The Company has defined its net debt to EBITDA leverage ratio as net debt (total principal debt outstanding net of cash and equivalents) divided by the sum of trailing twelve-month (“TTM”) adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) and TTM stock-based compensation expense. The following table provides a calculation of our net debt to EBITDA leverage ratio as calculated per our credit agreement:
