Grounding quotes
  • “2025 was a year of progressively more challenging market conditions with weakening U.S. residential trends and distribution destocking in the back half of the year.”
  • “While near-term results are being weighed down by weak market demand, our team is strengthening the business in ways that will significantly grow the earnings and cash flow of the company as markets recover.”
  • “So disappointed in the market opportunity, and we certainly have been challenged by market volumes and the volume deleverage.”
  • “This included a uniquely quiet storm season in the second half with no major storms making landfall in the U.S. for the first time in a decade, which weighed heavily on nondiscretionary roofing repair demand.”
