WINCHESTER, Virginia (November 25, 2025) -- American Woodmark Corporation (NASDAQ: AMWD) (“American Woodmark,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) today announced results for its second fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2025.
“Demand trends remain challenged in both the new construction and remodel markets. Our teams are executing well despite the lower volumes and delivered Adjusted EBITDA margins of 10.0% for the second fiscal quarter,” said Scott Culbreth, President and CEO. “Actions have been put in place or are in process to mitigate tariff and lower demand impacts on the business, including structural cost reductions, supplier negotiations, alternative sourcing and price increases. We estimate the unmitigated tariff impact at the current rates, in effect as of today's date, to represent approximately 4-4.5% of the Company’s annualized net sales with the impact varying by product category. This impact does not include the potential increase on Section 232 tariffs to 50%. The Company is also focused on closing the previously announced merger transaction with MasterBrand, Inc. so that we can provide a broader product portfolio across expanded channels, advance our innovation capabilities, and create exciting opportunities for team members.”
Second Quarter Results
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased $57.8 million, or 12.8%, to $394.6 million compared with the same quarter last fiscal year. Net income was $6.1 million ($0.42 per diluted share and 1.5% of net sales) compared with $27.7 million ($1.79 per diluted share and 6.1% of net sales) for the same quarter last fiscal year. Net income decreased $21.6 million due to the following: lower net sales, higher tariff and input costs, merger-related expenses, higher interest expense, and restructuring charges, net. These increases were partially offset by lower volume-based costs at our operating locations, lower incentive compensation, favorable mark-to-market adjustments on our foreign exchange forward contracts, and controlled discretionary spending across all locations and functions. Adjusted EPS per diluted share was $0.76 for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with $2.08 for the same quarter last fiscal year. Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased $20.6 million, or 34.1%, to $39.6 million, or 10.0% of net sales, compared with $60.2 million, or 13.3% of net sales, for the same quarter last fiscal year.

Fiscal Year to Date Results
Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2026 decreased $113.9 million, or 12.5%, to $797.7 million compared with the same period last fiscal year. Net income was $20.7 million ($1.42 per diluted share and 2.6% of net sales) compared with $57.3 million ($3.68 per diluted share and 6.3% of net sales) for the same period last fiscal year. Net income decreased $36.6 million due to the following: lower net sales combined with an unfavorable mix shift towards value-based offerings, higher tariff and product input costs, increased Digital Transformation spending related to our ERP deployment strategy, merger-related expenses, higher interest expense, and restructuring charges, net. These increases were partially offset by lower volume-based costs at our operating locations, lower incentive compensation, favorable mark-to-market adjustments on our foreign exchange forward contracts, and controlled discretionary spending across all locations and functions. Adjusted EPS per diluted share was $1.77 for the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared with $4.22 for the same period last fiscal year. Adjusted EBITDA for the first six months of fiscal 2026 decreased $41.2 million, or 33.5%, to $81.9 million, or 10.3% of net sales, compared with $123.1 million, or 13.5% of net sales, for the same period last fiscal year.
In light of our pending merger with MasterBrand, Inc., previously announced on August 6, 2025, we will not be holding a conference call to discuss our second quarter of fiscal 2026 results and we will not be providing or updating previously issued financial guidance.
Balance Sheet & Cash Flow
As of October 31, 2025, the Company had $52.1 million in cash plus access to $315.2 million of additional availability under its revolving credit facility. Also, as of October 31, 2025, the Company had $195.0 million in term loan debt and $173.4 million drawn on its revolving credit facility and net leverage was 1.90.
Cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2026 was $44.3 million and free cash flow totaled $24.0 million. The Company repurchased 209,757 shares, or approximately 1.4% of shares outstanding, for $12.4 million during the first six months of fiscal 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have reported our financial results in accordance with GAAP, and have discussed our financial results using the non-GAAP measures described below.
Management believes all of these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional means of analyzing the current period's results against the corresponding prior period's results. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin
We use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in evaluating the performance of our business, and we use each in the preparation of our annual operating budgets and as indicators of business performance and profitability. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin allow us to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve operating performance. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measurement used in our Term Loans to determine interest rates and financial covenant compliance.
We define EBITDA as net income adjusted to exclude (1) income tax expense, (2) interest expense, net, and (3) depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to exclude (1) expenses related to the pending merger with MasterBrand, Inc., (2) restructuring charges, net, (3) net gain/loss on debt modification, (4) stock-based compensation expense, (5) gain/loss on asset disposals, and (6) change in fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, is useful for investors because management uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the performance of our business.
We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.
Adjusted EPS per diluted share
We use Adjusted EPS per diluted share in evaluating the performance of our business and profitability. Management believes that this measure provides useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing the Company's results by providing an indication of performance and profitability excluding the impact of unusual and/or non-cash items. We define Adjusted EPS per diluted share as diluted earnings per share excluding the per share impact of (1) expenses related to the currently proposed merger with MasterBrand, (2) restructuring charges, net, (3) net gain/loss on debt modification, (4) change in fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts, and (5) the tax benefit of items (1) - (4).
Free cash flow
We use free cash flow to better understand cash flow trends in our business. We believe this measure gives investors an additional perspective on cash flow from operating activities in excess of amounts required for reinvestment. It also provides a measure of our ability to repay our debt obligations. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures consisting of (1) cash payments to acquire property, plant and equipment and (2) cash investments in promotional displays.
Net leverage
Net leverage is a performance measure that we believe provides investors a more complete understanding of our leverage position and borrowing capacity after factoring in cash and cash equivalents that eventually could be used to repay outstanding debt.
We define net leverage as net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) divided by the trailing-twelve months Adjusted EBITDA.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are set forth on the following tables:
