Forward guidance

Broader macroeconomic and recession concerns continue to negatively impact demand in most markets. As a result, the Corporation is lowering its outlook for fiscal year 2022.

Tailwinds

  • Fourth quarter non-GAAP earnings are expected to decrease sequentially from third quarter 2022 levels but modestly exceed year-ago results primarily due to favorable price-cost.
  • Pricing benefits and inorganic revenue from acquisitions are expected to drive growth rates in the low-to-mid single-digits in the fourth quarter for Residential Building Products.
  • The Corporation expects to maintain a strong balance sheet through the remainder of 2022, and throughout 2023.
  • Low leverage and continued free cash flow generation are expected to provide ample capacity for investment, dividend payments, M&A, and share buyback.
  • Committed to core strategies, which will expand margins in Workplace Furnishings and drive long-term revenue growth in Residential Building Products
