First Quarter 2022 Discussion

Consolidated net sales were $726 million in the first quarter of 2022, a 12% increase from $646 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase resulted from a 15% increase in average unit price (AUP), partially offset by a 1% decrease in base volume, a 1% decrease due to a prior year divestiture and a 1% impact from unfavorable foreign exchange.

North American Residential net sales were $569 million, a 19% increase compared to the first quarter of 2021, principally driven by a 17% increase in AUP and a 3% increase in base volume.

Europe net sales were $80 million, a 9% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2021, driven by a 16% decrease in base volume, a 7% decrease due to a prior year divestiture and a 3% decrease due to unfavorable foreign exchange, partially offset by a 16% increase in AUP and a 1% increase in the sale of components.

Architectural net sales were $71 million, a 5% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2021, driven by an 10% decrease in base volume and a 4% decrease in the sale of components, partially offset by a 9% increase in AUP.

Total company gross profit was $184 million in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 16% compared to $159 million in the first quarter of 2021. Gross profit margin increased 90 basis points to 25.4%, as higher AUP offset the impact of inflation on raw materials and logistics costs, higher manufacturing wages and benefits and the impact of lower overall volume.

Selling, general and administration (SG&A) expenses were $83 million in the first quarter of 2022, down slightly from the prior year quarter primarily due to the positive impacts of a gain on sale of PP&E and a gain on our deferred compensation assets partially offset by higher wages and benefits. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 11.5%, 140 basis points lower as compared to the first quarter of 2021.

Net income attributable to Masonite was $68 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to $47 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher gross profit as discussed above.

Adjusted EBITDA* of $125 million in the first quarter of 2022 increased 22% from $102 million in the first quarter of 2021. Diluted earnings per share were $2.89 in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of 53% compared to $1.89 in the comparable 2021 period. Diluted adjusted earnings per share* were $2.89 in the first quarter of 2022 compared to $1.93 in the comparable 2021 period, which excluded $1 million in charges related to restructuring.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation

At the end of the quarter, total available liquidity was $443 million, inclusive of $184 million in unrestricted cash and $260 million of availability under our ABL Facility and our AR Sales Program.

Cash used in operations was $38 million for the three months ended April 3, 2022, as compared to $14 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by changes in net working capital, partially offset by higher net income. Capital expenditures were approximately $19 million for the three months ended April 3, 2022, an increase from $14 million in the comparable period of 2021.

During the first quarter, Masonite repurchased approximately 388 thousand common shares in the open market for $40 million, at an average price of $103.03. In addition, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the "ASR Agreement") in the quarter and received an initial delivery of approximately 848 thousand common shares in exchange for a prepayment of $100 million. The specific number of common shares that Masonite ultimately will repurchase pursuant to the ASR Agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average share price of Masonite common shares over the term of the ASR Agreement, less a discount and subject to adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR Agreement.

Full Year 2022 Outlook

"We are very encouraged by our strong financial performance in the first quarter but recognize that the macro environment in both North America and Europe is rapidly evolving," said Russ Tiejema, Executive Vice President and CFO. "The entire Masonite team is focused on optimizing our operations while driving forward our Doors That Do More™ Strategy. At this time, we are optimistic that we can meet or exceed the 2022 full year outlook we provided in February."

A quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA* and diluted adjusted earnings per share* to the corresponding GAAP information is not provided for the 2022 outlook because it is difficult to predict the GAAP measures that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA* such as restructuring costs, asset impairments, share based compensation expense and gains/losses on sales of subsidiaries and PP&E.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Related Information

Our management reviews net sales and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Net assets are not allocated to the reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which does not have a standardized meaning under GAAP and is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to either net income or operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not include certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Masonite adjusted to exclude the following items: depreciation; amortization; share based compensation expense; loss (gain) on disposal of property, plant and equipment; registration and listing fees; restructuring costs; asset impairment; loss (gain) on disposal of subsidiaries; interest expense (income), net; loss on extinguishment of debt; other expense (income), net; income tax expense (benefit); other items; loss (income) from discontinued operations, net of tax; and net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest. This definition of Adjusted EBITDA differs from the definitions of EBITDA contained in the indentures governing the 2028 and 2030 Notes and the credit agreement governing the ABL Facility. Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated under our ABL Facility or senior notes would also include, among other things, additional add-backs for amounts related to: cost savings projected by us in good faith to be realized as a result of actions taken or expected to be taken prior to or during the relevant period; fees and expenses in connection with certain plant closures and layoffs; and the amount of any restructuring charges, integration costs or other business optimization expenses or reserve deducted in the relevant period in computing consolidated net income, including any one-time costs incurred in connection with acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA is used to evaluate and compare the performance of the segments and it is one of the primary measures used to determine employee incentive compensation. Intersegment sales are recorded using market prices. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, from an operations standpoint, provides an appropriate way to measure and assess segment performance. Our management team has established the practice of reviewing the performance of each segment based on the measures of net sales and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to users of the consolidated financial statements because it provides the same information that we use internally to evaluate and compare the performance of the segments and it is one of the primary measures used to determine employee incentive compensation.

The tables below set forth a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to Masonite to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales. Management believes this measure provides supplemental information on how successfully we operate our business.

Adjusted EPS is diluted earnings per common share attributable to Masonite (EPS) less restructuring costs, asset impairment charges, loss (gain) on disposal of subsidiaries, loss on extinguishment of debt and other items, if any, that do not relate to Masonite's underlying business performance (each net of related tax expense (benefit)). Management uses this measure to evaluate the overall performance of the Company and believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the Company from period to period. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

Certain amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and associated tables may not foot due to rounding. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts.
