"Our second quarter results continue to demonstrate the strength of our business and resiliency of our earnings to outperform the market despite more challenging near-term conditions. This is the result of the structural changes and strategic choices we have made to reshape the new Owens Corning," said Chair and Chief Executive Officer Brian Chambers. "As we progress through the year, we remain focused on leveraging our unique operating model to strengthen our market positions, sustain our financial performance, and create value for our customers and shareholders."

Enterprise Performance from Continuing Operations

Enterprise Strategy Highlights

• In the second quarter, Owens Corning maintained a high level of safety performance with a recordable incident rate (RIR) of 0.60.

• Owens Corning hosted its 2025 Investor Day in May, during which the executive leadership team highlighted the durable changes made to the company to deliver its long-term financial targets, leveraging a unique operating model and renewed enterprise strategy to sustain high EBITDA margins and generate revenue growth. A replay of the 2025 Investor Day webcast and copy of the slide presentations are available on the company's investor relations website.

• Owens Corning continued to sharpen its geographic focus as it completed the sale of its building materials business in China and Korea in July, which represented annual revenue of approximately $130 million. The transaction included six insulation manufacturing facilities in China and a roofing manufacturing facility in Korea.

• Aligned with the company's strategy to strengthen its market leadership in building products, the previously announced divestiture of Owens Corning's glass reinforcements business is making good progress. The transaction remains targeted for completion in 2025, subject to regulatory approvals.

Cash Returned to Shareholders

• In May, the Owens Corning Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization for up to 12 million shares of the company's common stock. The action reaffirms Owens Corning's capital allocation strategy and reflects the success of its disciplined commercial and operational execution to deliver consistent and sustainable performance in dynamic market conditions. The company also committed to return $2 billion of cash to shareholders over 2025 and 2026.

• Owens Corning returned $279 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases during the second quarter. Year-to-date through the first half, total shareholder return was nearly $440 million. The company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $59 million and repurchased 1.6 million shares of common stock for $220 million. At the end of the quarter, 16.0 million shares were available for repurchase under the current authorizations.

"Owens Corning demonstrated strong execution in a softening North America residential market, delivering a milestone 20th consecutive quarter of 20% or better adjusted EBITDA margins. With confidence in our cash generation, we returned significant cash to shareholders – nearly $440 million in the first half – and remain on track to deliver our commitment of $2 billion in returns over the next two years," said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Todd Fister. "Even in current market conditions, we expect to maintain strong EBITDA margins and shareholder returns while investing to accelerate long-term growth and incremental cash generation."

Other Notable Highlights

• Owens Corning was named to the Fortune 500 list for the 71^st consecutive year. This annual list ranks the largest U.S. companies based on revenue. Owens Corning has appeared on the list every year since its inception.

Second-Quarter Business Performance from Continuing Operations

• Owens Corning reported 10% year-over-year sales growth in the second quarter, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 26%. This marks the company's 20th consecutive quarter of delivering adjusted EBITDA margins of 20% or higher. Results were driven by commercial strength and operational execution in mixed markets, including positive price/cost.

Third-Quarter 2025 Outlook for Continuing Operations

• The key economic factors that impact the company's business are residential repair activity, residential remodeling activity, U.S. housing starts, and commercial construction activity.

• Owens Corning expects near-term market demand for non-discretionary roofing repair activity to decline in the third quarter driven by lower storm activity versus prior year, with demand for its products outpacing the market. The company expects residential new construction and remodeling to remain challenged. Non-residential construction activity in North America is expected to remain relatively stable, while the company expects market conditions in Europe to gradually improve in the second half.

• Owens Corning expects minimal third-quarter impact from tariff exposure as a result of long-term and short-term mitigation efforts, based on current tariff policies. In the third quarter, the company anticipates reducing its approximately $50 million tariff exposure to a net impact of about $10 million, primarily in the Doors business.

• For the third-quarter, Owens Corning expects to continue delivering strong results in a mixed-market environment, based on the structural improvements made to the company and its market-leading positions. It expects revenue from continuing operations to be slightly down to in-line with prior year, approximately $2.7 billion to $2.8 billion. The enterprise is expected to generate adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations of approximately 23% to 25%.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Owens Corning uses non-GAAP measures in its earnings press release that are intended to supplement investors' understanding of the company's financial information. These non-GAAP measures include EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to Owens Corning common stockholders ("adjusted EPS") from continuing operations, adjusted pre-tax earnings from continuing operations, free cash flow, free cash flow conversion and net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. When used to report historical financial information, reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included in the financial tables of this press release. Specifically, see Table 2 for adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, Table 3 for adjusted earnings from continuing operations and adjusted EPS from continuing operations, and Table 8 for free cash flow and free cash flow conversion (annually).

For purposes of internal review of Owens Corning's year-over-year operational performance, management excludes from net earnings attributable to Owens Corning certain items it believes are not representative of ongoing operations. The non-GAAP financial measures resulting from these adjustments (including adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, adjusted earnings from continuing operations, adjusted EPS from continuing operations, and adjusted pre-tax earnings from continuing operations) are used internally by Owens Corning for various purposes, including reporting results of operations to the Board of Directors, analysis of performance, and related employee compensation measures. Management believes that these adjustments result in a measure that provides a useful representation of its operational performance; however, the adjusted measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings attributable to Owens Corning as prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure used by investors, financial analysts and management to help evaluate the company's ability to generate cash to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. The company defines free cash flow as net cash flow provided by operating activities, less cash paid for property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow is not a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures due to the company's mandatory debt service requirements. Free cash flow conversion is a non-GAAP liquidity measure used to measure the company's efficiency in turning profits into free cash flow from its core operations. The company defines free cash flow conversion as free cash flow divided by adjusted earnings. Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion is used internally by the company for various purposes, including reporting results of operations to the Board of Directors of the company and analysis of performance.

Management believes that these measures provide a useful representation of our operational performance and liquidity; however, the measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash flow provided by operating activities or net earnings attributable to Owens Corning as prepared in accordance with GAAP.

When the company provides forward-looking expectations for non-GAAP measures, the most comparable GAAP measures and a reconciliation between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures are generally not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP measures in future periods. The variability in timing and amount of adjusting items could have significant and unpredictable effect on our future GAAP results.
