SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Second quarter sales were $1.1 billion, a 6%2 decrease versus second quarter 2024

Second quarter EBIT was $90 million, a $705 million increase from second quarter 2024. Adjusted1 EBIT was $76 million, a $4 million increase from second quarter 2024 adjusted1 EBIT.
- 2Q 2025 adjustments include: $4 million of restructuring charges and $18 million gain from real estate sales
- 2Q 2024 adjustments include: $675 million non-cash goodwill impairment, $11 million of restructuring charges, $4 million of CEO transition costs, and a $5 million gain from the sale of real estate
