Commenting on the Company’s second quarter, Chairman and CEO Jeff Lorberbaum stated, “In challenging conditions across our regions, our results reflect the impact of our ongoing operational improvements, cost containment actions and market development initiatives. Our premium residential and commercial products and new collections introduced during the past 24 months benefited our performance. Our restructuring actions are on schedule and delivering the expected savings as we have closed high-cost operations, eliminated inefficient assets, streamlined distribution and leveraged technology to improve our administrative and operational costs. Our global operations teams continue to identify productivity initiatives to lower our costs through enhancements to equipment, conserving energy, optimizing our supply chain and re-engineering products. Our industry faced continued pricing pressure from lower market volumes, which we are mitigating through strengthening product and channel mix.
“During the second quarter, we generated approximately $125 million of free cash flow, and we purchased approximately 393,000 shares of our stock for approximately $42 million. Our Board of Directors recently approved a new authorization to acquire $500 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. We are confident in our strategies to deliver long-term profitable growth as the industry recovers from this cyclical downturn.
“Given the increasing tariffs, we are emphasizing the benefits of our locally produced collections and leading position as a North American manufacturer. We have begun to address the implemented tariffs through price adjustments and supply chain optimization. Earlier this month, the U.S. government set a new deadline of August 1 for countries to complete tariff negotiations while also announcing specific tariffs on key trading partners. We are continuing to monitor the changing tariff levels and will adjust our strategies as they evolve.”
