While we expect housing demand to remain connected to changes in affordability and the macroeconomic backdrop this year, we believe the long-term opportunities across our residential and commercial end markets remain attractive,' stated Jeff Edwards, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Edwards continued: 'IBP's business model sources the vast amount of its products domestically and employs a labor force that is completely based here in the U.S. As such, at present we do not anticipate substantial disruptions to operations or financial impacts to our business directly tied to changing import tariffs. Our business continues to generate strong operating cash flow, and we remain committed to investing in our business and prudently returning capital to shareholders throughout economic cycles. During the first quarter, we completed a couple of small acquisitions and returned $91.1 million of cash to shareholders through $34.3 million in share repurchases and $56.8 million in dividends.' 'Throughout 2025, we will remain focused on the elements of our business that we can control, which includes remaining disciplined in our capital allocation initiatives and working to drive operational and financial improvements,' concluded Mr. Edwards. Acquisition Update IBP continues to prioritize profitable growth through its proven strategy of acquiring well-run installers of insulation and complementary building products. To date in 2025, IBP has acquired over $10 million of annual revenue and expects to acquire at least $100 million of annual revenue in 2025. During the 2025 first quarter and in May 2025, IBP acquired a bolt-on business and completed the following acquisitions: In March 2025, IBP acquired Volunteer Building Products, Inc, a South Carolina-based installer of a diverse mix of products including closet shelving, shower doors, and mirrors, primarily in the new residential end market. Volunteer Building Products has annual revenue of nearly $6 million. In May 2025, IBP acquired Pro Foamers, Inc., an installer of spray foam and air barrier products in the commercial end market based in Green Bay, Wisconsin with annual revenue of $4 million. 2025 Second Quarter Cash Dividend IBP's Board of Directors has approved the Company's quarterly cash dividend of $0.37 per share, payable on June 30, 2025, to stockholders of record on June 13, 2025. The second quarter regular cash dividend represents a 6% increase from last year's second quarter cash dividend payment. Share Repurchases During the three months ended March 31, 2025, IBP repurchased 200,000 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $34.3 million. At March 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $465.7 million available under its stock repurchase program. First Quarter 2025 Results Overview For the first quarter of 2025, net revenue was $684.8 million, a decrease of 1.2% from $692.9 million for the first quarter of 2024. On a consolidated same branch basis, net revenue decreased 4.2% from the prior year quarter. Residential same branch sales within the Company's Installation segment were down 4.6% in the quarter and commercial same branch sales within the Installation segment were down 2.8% from the prior year quarter. Gross profit declined 4.6% to $223.7 million from $234.5 million in the prior year quarter. Gross profit and adjusted gross profit* as a percent of net revenue were both 32.7%, compared to 33.8% and 33.9% in the same period last year, respectively. Adjusted gross profit primarily adjusts for the Company's share-based compensation expense. Selling and administrative expense, as a percent of total revenue, was 21.0% compared to 19.6% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted selling and administrative expense*, as a percent of net revenue, was 20.1% compared to 19.0% in the prior year quarter. Net income was $45.4 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, compared to $55.9 million, or $1.97 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Net profit margin for the first quarter was 6.6% compared to 8.1% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income* was $57.6 million, or $2.08 per diluted share, compared to $70.2 million, or $2.47 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net profit margin* for the first quarter was 8.4% compared to 10.1% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income accounts for the impact of non-core items in both periods, including an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions. EBITDA* was $96.0 million, a 14.9% decrease from $112.8 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA* was $102.4 million, a 12.7% decrease from $117.3 million in the prior year quarter, representing an adjusted EBITDA margin* of 15.0% and 16.9%, respectively. Net profit, adjusted net profit, and adjusted EBITDA margin reductions during the quarter were primarily due to higher administrative wages and higher facility costs. Additionally, gross profit and adjusted gross profit margins during the quarter were impacted by higher vehicle insurance and depreciation expense.

SEGMENT INFORMATION (unaudited, in millions) Information on Segments Our Company has three operating segments consisting of Installation, Distribution and Manufacturing. The Other category reported below reflects the operations of our Distribution and Manufacturing operating segments. (1) Cost of sales included in the Installation segment gross profit is exclusive of depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Expand The reconciliation of Installation revenue and segment gross profit for each period as shown in the table above to consolidated net revenue and income before income taxes is as follows: (1) Other revenue and other gross profit include the remaining two operating segments, Distribution and Manufacturing before inter-segment eliminations. These operating segments are each below the quantitative thresholds for being reported as a reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Expand Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Selling and Administrative Expense measure performance by adjusting GAAP net income, EBITDA, gross profit and selling and administrative expense, respectively, for certain income or expense items that are not considered part of our core operations. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists both investors and us in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. We believe the Adjusted EBITDA measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of our capital structure (primarily interest expense), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), items outside our control (primarily income taxes) and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. In addition, we use various EBITDA-based measures in determining the achievement of awards under certain of our incentive compensation programs. Other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility. Although we use the Adjusted EBITDA measure to assess the performance of our business, the use of the measure is limited because it does not include certain material expenses, such as interest and taxes, necessary to operate our business. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP net income as a measure of performance. Our presentation of this measure should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, this measure is not intended as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance, as an alternative to any other measure of performance in conformity with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. You should therefore not place undue reliance on this measure or ratios calculated using this measure. We also believe the Adjusted Net Income measure is useful to investors and us as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period as it measures our changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that impact operating performance, and removes the effect of certain non-core items such as discontinued operations, acquisition related expenses, amortization expense, the tax impact of these certain non-core items, and the volatility related to the timing and extent of other activities such as asset impairments and non-core income and expenses. To make the financial presentation more consistent with other public building products companies, beginning in the fourth quarter 2016 we included an addback for non-cash amortization expense related to acquisitions. Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Other companies may define Adjusted Net Income differently and, as a result, our measure may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies. In addition, Adjusted Net Income may be defined differently for purposes of covenants contained in our revolving credit facility or any future facility. INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC. RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES ADJUSTED NET INCOME CALCULATIONS (unaudited, in millions, except share and per share amounts) The tables below reconcile Adjusted Net Income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net income, for the periods presented therein. We have included Adjusted Net Income in this press release because it is a key measure used by our management team to understand the operating performance and profitability of our business. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we decided to wind down the operations of a single new commercial end market-oriented branch that focused on the installation of a non-core end product, due to shifting market conditions, an unfavorable contract settlement, and sub-standard operating performance. For the periods ended June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2024 we reported Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Diluted Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Share, dispositions and net of dispositions in order to provide useful insight and metrics relevant to understanding and evaluating the results of our ongoing operations given plans to close a single new commercial end market-oriented branch. As of the three months ended March 31, 2025, the closing of this branch is essentially complete and its financial results were insignificant. Therefore, we have chosen not to report any financial results for dispositions or net of dispositions in the tables below. Per share figures may reflect rounding adjustments and consequently totals may not appear to sum. (1) Addback of all non-cash amortization resulting from business combinations. (2) Includes $1.1 million of non-cash write-off of capitalized loan expense and $3.0 million of cash paid to third parties in connection with loan refinancing for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon to become 2-day event – could Hong Kong follow?

This year's Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon will take place over two days because it has become so popular, organisers revealed on Tuesday, and Hong Kong officials said they could follow suit if it proved a success. Advertisement The change will see the half-marathon and marathon held separately, on the Saturday and Sunday respectively, on the weekend of December 6 and 7, with a children's race, 5km, 10km and marathon relay also planned. Officials said the move had been driven by an increase in runners over the past three editions of the event, with the marathon up 31 per cent and half-marathon 46 per cent in that time. More than 55,000 competitors took part last year. Jeff Edwards, managing director of Asia for The Ironman Group, organiser of the Singapore Marathon, said it was always looking 'for ways to improve the overall race experience and create an environment where runners can perform at their best'. 10km runners on the Island Eastern Corridor during this year's Hong Kong Marathon.

The Fed's interest rate hikes throughout 2022 and 2023 have successfully cooled post-pandemic inflation, bringing it closer to the 2% target. Inflationary pressures have eased without tipping the economy into a recession, suggesting a soft landing. This stability, paired with recent rate cuts (0.5% in September 2024 and 0.25% in November 2024), fueled a strong year for the stock market in 2024. The markets surged further after Donald Trump's presidential victory in November, with major indices reaching record highs in the days following the election. Still, questions remain about the direction of economic policy, as potential tariffs and corporate tax changes add uncertainty for 2025. Want to invest in winners with rock-solid fundamentals?

Judge says heat in Texas prisons unconstitutional as states face mounting lawsuits

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A federal judge's rebuke of Texas housing prisoners in lockups without air conditioning stopped short of ordering a fix before summer in what has become of the country's biggest lawsuits over keeping prisoners safe during dangerous extreme heat. But U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman's warnings to Texas to act after finding the conditions in the prison system unconstitutional could resonate elsewhere in the U.S. where similar challenges are ongoing, according to attorneys leading the Texas case and other prisoner advocates. Texas is just one of several states, mostly in the South, facing lawsuits over prison conditions when temperatures often rise above 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37.7 Celsius). In Louisiana, a group of men incarcerated at a state penitentiary this week again asked a federal judge to take steps to protect prisoners doing outdoor agricultural labor in dangerous heat. 'Texas is the largest prison system in the country and the judge found it to be acting in an unconstitutional manner and indifferent to dangerous conditions,' said Jeff Edwards, lead attorney in the Texas case. 'Every warden and leader of a correctional system is going to be aware of it,' Edwards said. 'It sends an incredibly powerful message.' The Texas case will not have authority over prisons in other states. But Corene Kendrick, deputy director of the ACLU National Prison Project, said the judge's findings will be significant for lawsuits with the same issues of extreme heat, limited or no air conditioning, and inmates at risk of dying. "It's influential,' Kendrick said. Texas has more than 130,000 people in prisons. Only about a third of roughly 100 prison units are fully air-conditioned, and the rest have either partial or no electrical cooling. The lawsuit was initially filed in 2023 by Bernie Tiede, the former mortician serving a life sentence whose murder case inspired the movie 'Bernie.' Several prisoners' rights groups then asked to join his legal fight and expand it. Several people who were formerly incarcerated in Texas testified that inmates would fake suicide attempts to be moved to cooler medical areas, while some would set fires so that guards would be forced to hose down cells. Texas officials acknowledged that heat may have been a factor in a handful of deaths in 2023 but dispute claims that the impact has been far greater. On Thursday, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice said it has asked lawmakers for $118 million to install air conditioning for about 16,000 more beds. 'TDCJ is dedicated to continuing to add air-conditioned beds in our facilities,' the agency said. In Louisiana, a federal judge last year ordered prison officials to increase shaded areas, schedule additional breaks, provide sunscreen and medical checks to those especially vulnerable to high temperatures. But the order did not shut down work on a former slave plantation when heat indexes reach 88 degrees Fahrenheit (31.1 degrees Celsius) or higher, which was what the plaintiffs had requested. The judge's order has since expired and a group of inmates filed a new request for help. 'As we enter the summer season in Louisiana, the State continues to force incarcerated people to work in the fields of a former plantation, under dangerous conditions, putting them at extreme risk of heat-related illness,' said Samantha Pourciau, Senior Staff Attorney at the Promise of Justice Initiative. The Louisiana Department of Correction did not immediately respond for comment. A federal lawsuit in New Mexico claims eight inmates were confined for hours in stifling summer heat in a prison transport van without working air conditioning. In Georgia, prison officials face a federal lawsuit from the family of a man who said he died after he was left in an outdoor cell without water, shade or ice in July 2023. The Texas case will proceed toward trial, where the judge warned the state of the likelihood it could be ordered to spend billions to install permanent air conditioning. The Texas Legislature is in session and currently writing the two-year state budget. Lawmakers have filed at least three bills that would provide some relief. Temperatures are rising as the Texas summer approaches. Some areas of the state have already hit above 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 Celsius). 'I'm regretful we can't protect them with relief this summer,' Edwards said. 'But we will move as fast as we can.' ___ Associated Press journalists Sara Cline in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Kate Brumback in Atlanta, Morgan Lee in Santa Fe, New Mexico and Jacques Billeaud in Phoenix contributed.
