Forward guidance

The Corporation expects second half organic revenue to grow at a rate in the low single-digits for Workplace Furnishings. In Residential Building Products, the Corporation expects year-over-year revenue declines to moderate in the second half due to lower prior-year comparisons, moving past the normalization of trade inventory in the remodel/retrofit channel, and improved trends in new construction.

Tailwinds

  • Continued year-over-year profit and margin improvement in Workplace Furnishings.
  • The addition of Kimball International will strengthen our business.
  • It better positions us to lead in the evolving workplace environment and provides new opportunities for profit growth.
  • The intermediate- to long-term fundamentals of the housing market are strong as the market remains undersupplied.
  • Demographic trends will continue to support demand.

Headwinds

  • The Corporation expects third quarter 2023 non-GAAP EPS to be modestly below third quarter 2022 levels primarily due to lower volume in Residential Building Products
  • Normalization of variable compensation
  • The Corporation expects Residential Building Products revenue to decline at a year-over-year rate in the high teens during the second half of 2023 with the fourth quarter declining at a slower rate than the third quarter.
  • Prior to the exit, Poppin is expected to generate an operating loss of $3.5 to $4.0 million during the third quarter.
  • Prior to the exit, Poppin is expected to generate revenue of $7 to $9 million during the third quarter.
