Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

• Net sales were $4.2 billion, a 6.7% decrease, driven by lower core organic sales and commodity deflation, partially offset by growth from acquisitions and one additional selling day.

• Adjusted EBITDA decreased 23.0% to $626.5 million, primarily driven by lower gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses after adjustments.

As previously announced, Dave Rush is retiring as President and CEO of Builders FirstSource ("BFS"), effective November 6, 2024, after 25 years of dedicated service. Mr. Rush will remain on the Board of Directors and continue as a special advisor to ensure a smooth transition.

“I'm proud of our resilient third quarter performance as we maintained a mid-teens EBITDA margin by leveraging our distinct competitive advantages and differentiated business model,” commented Dave Rush, CEO of Builders FirstSource. “Our six acquisitions during the third quarter reinforce our commitment to investing in value-added products to enhance our margin profile. I am confident in our ability to execute our strategy and drive long-term growth.”

Rush added, “It has been an honor to serve this great company as CEO for the past two years capping off my more than 25 years of service through various levels of the business. We have the best people in the industry, and the opportunity to be CEO of BFS has truly been the joy and highlight of my career. I am so proud of how far we have come and am grateful to the Board of Directors, my fellow leadership team and all team members for their support. I have full confidence in Peter and know he will be an excellent leader of BFS. He embodies our culture, has helped craft our current strategy, and has served as a trusted advisor to our operational leaders.”

“It has been a pleasure to serve alongside Dave, and I'm grateful that he will continue to be involved moving forward as an advisor and Board member,” commented Peter Jackson, incoming CEO of Builders FirstSource. "I want to thank the Board for their confidence in Pete Beckmann and me to drive the BFS strategy, which will continue to be focused on growing value-added products and services, driving operational excellence, investing in digital solutions and innovation, and continuing to build our high-performing culture. Disciplined capital allocation is a true competitive advantage that creates shareholder value through opportunistic share repurchases and acquisitions that set us up to drive long-term growth. As a trusted partner to homebuilders, we are helping solve industry pain points with our best-in-class product portfolio and scale, industry-leading digital solutions, and an exceptional team dedicated to customer service. I am confident that we are well positioned to take advantage of the many opportunities in front of us.”

Pete Beckmann, incoming CFO of Builders FirstSource, added, “We delivered resilient results during the third quarter despite a choppy housing market and the reduced value of an average start by leaning into the pillars of our strategy and operating model. We are leveraging our fortress balance sheet and free cash flow generation to drive disciplined capital deployment, as witnessed by our share repurchases and M&A activity during the quarter. Our scale and financial flexibility help us act as a key partner to homebuilders, and we have clear line of sight to compound value creation over the long term.”

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Performance Highlights

All Year-Over-Year Comparisons Unless Otherwise Noted:

Net Sales

• Net sales of $4.2 billion, a 6.7% decrease, driven by a 7.2% decline in core organic sales as Multi-Family continues to trend downward and commodity deflation of 2.9%, partially offset by growth from acquisitions of 2.0% and one additional selling day contributing 1.4%.

• Core organic net sales declined 7.2%. Single-Family declined 4.6% and Multi-Family declined 30.9%, while Repair and Remodel (“R&R”)/Other increased 0.8%. On a weighted basis, Multi-Family and Single-Family lowered net sales by 4.2% and 3.2%, respectively, while R&R/Other raised sales by 0.2%.

Gross Profit

• Gross profit was $1.4 billion, a decrease of 12.3%. Gross profit margin percentage decreased 210 basis points to 32.8%, primarily driven by ongoing Multi-Family and core organic normalization.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

• SG&A was $958.3 million, an increase of $18.8 million, or 2.0%, primarily driven by additional expenses from operations acquired within the last twelve months and asset write-offs, which were partially offset by lower variable compensation on decreased sales. As a percentage of net sales, total SG&A increased by 190 basis points to 22.6%, primarily attributable to reduced operating leverage.

Interest Expense

• Interest expense increased $4.1 million to $54.3 million, primarily due to higher average debt balances.

Income Tax Expense

• Income tax expense was $89.0 million, compared to $140.0 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by a decrease in income before income tax. The effective tax rate in the third quarter increased 10 basis points year-over-year to 23.8%.

Net Income

• Net income was $284.8 million, or $2.44 earnings per diluted share, compared to net income of $451.5 million, or $3.59 earnings per diluted share, in the same period a year ago. The 36.9% decrease in net income was primarily driven by lower gross profit and higher operating expenses, partially offset by lower income tax expenses.
• Net income as a percentage of net sales decreased by 323 basis points from the prior year period to 6.7%, primarily due to lower gross profit margins, partially offset by lower income tax expenses.

Adjusted Net Income

• Adjusted net income was $359.5 million, a decrease of 32.6%, primarily driven by lower gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses after adjustments and lower income tax expenses.

Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share

• Adjusted earnings per diluted share was $3.07, compared to $4.24 in the same period a year ago. The 27.6% decrease was primarily driven by lower adjusted net income, partially offset by share repurchases.

Adjusted EBITDA

• Adjusted EBITDA decreased 23.0% to $626.5 million, primarily driven by lower gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses after adjustments.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin declined by 310 basis points from the prior year period to 14.8%, primarily due to lower gross profit margins, partially offset by lower operating expenses.

• For the third quarter, the Company delivered approximately $27 million in productivity savings related to operational excellence and supply chain initiatives. Year to date, the Company has delivered approximately $104 million in productivity savings.
• The Company expects to deliver $110 million to $120 million in productivity savings in 2024.

Capital Structure, Leverage, and Liquidity Information

• For the three months ended September 30, 2024, cash provided by operating activities was $730.0 million, and cash used in investing activities was $219.3 million. The Company's free cash flow was $634.7 million, compared to $537.8 million in the prior year period due to a decrease in net working capital, partially offset by lower net income.
• Liquidity as of September 30, 2024, was approximately $2.0 billion, consisting of $1.7 billion in net borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility and $0.3 billion of cash on hand.
• As of September 30, 2024, LTM Adjusted EBITDA was $2.5 billion and net debt was $3.4 billion, resulting in the net debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 1.4x, compared to 1.1x in the prior year period.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this news release and the schedules hereto that are not purely historical facts or that necessarily depend upon future events, including statements about forecasted financial performance or other statements about anticipations, beliefs, expectations, hopes, synergies, intentions or strategies for the future, may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. In addition, oral statements made by our directors, officers and employees to the investor and analyst communities, media representatives and others, depending upon their nature, may also constitute forward-looking statements. As with the forward-looking statements included in this release, these forward-looking statements are by nature inherently uncertain, and actual results or events may differ materially as a result of many factors. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to Builders FirstSource on the date this release was submitted. Builders FirstSource undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control or may be currently unknown to the Company, that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements; such risks or uncertainties include those related to the Company’s growth strategies, including acquisitions, organic growth and digital strategies, or the dependence of the Company’s revenues and operating results on, among other things, the homebuilding industry and, to a lesser extent, repair and remodel activity, which in each case is dependent on economic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, consumer confidence, labor and supply shortages, and also lumber and other commodity prices. Builders FirstSource may not succeed in addressing these and other risks. Further information regarding factors that could affect our financial and other results can be found in the risk factors section of Builders FirstSource’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and may also be described from time to time in the other reports Builders FirstSource files with the SEC. Consequently, all forward-looking statements in this release are qualified by the factors, risks and uncertainties contained therein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial measures entitled Adjusted EBITDA, LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, basic Adjusted net income per share, diluted Adjusted net income per share, Adjusted SG&A, Adjusted SG&A as a percent of net sales, and Free cash flow are not financial measures recognized under GAAP and are therefore non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income before depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, net, income tax expense and other non-cash or special items including stock compensation expense, acquisition and related expense, technology implementation expense, debt issuance and refinancing costs, severance and gain on sale of assets and other one-time costs partially offset by the tax effect of those adjustments to net income. LTM Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve consecutive months. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted net income is defined as GAAP net income before non-cash or special items including acquisition and related expense, technology implementation expense, debt issuance and refinancing cost and amortization expense partially offset by the tax effect of those adjustments to net income. Basic Adjusted net income per share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average basic common shares outstanding while diluted Adjusted net income per share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Adjusted SG&A is defined as GAAP SG&A expense before non-cash or special items including depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock compensation expense, acquisition and related expense, and technology implementation expense. Adjusted SG&A as a percent of sales is defined as Adjusted SG&A divided by net sales. Free cash flow is defined as GAAP net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Company management uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, basic Adjusted net income per share and diluted Adjusted net income per share as supplemental measures in its evaluation of the Company’s business, including for trend analysis, purposes of determining management incentive compensation and budgeting and planning purposes. Company management believes that these measures provide a meaningful measure of the Company’s performance and a better baseline for comparing financial performance across periods because these measures eliminate the effects of period to period changes, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, in taxes, costs associated with capital investments, interest expense, stock compensation expense, and other non-cash and non-recurring items and, in the case of Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share, in certain non-recurring items. Company management also uses free cash flow as a supplemental measure in its evaluation of the Company’s business, including for purposes of its internal liquidity assessments. Company management believes that free cash flow provides a meaningful evaluation of the Company’s liquidity.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results, cash flows and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other companies in the Company’s industry, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, the Company’s calculations of these financial measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Company management does not consider these financial measures in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below.

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA outlook, free cash flow and full-year forecast for its effective tax rate on operations exclude the impact of certain income and expense items that management believes are not part of underlying operations. These items may include, but are not limited to, loss on early extinguishment of debt, restructuring charges, certain tax items, and charges associated with non-recurring costs such as professional and legal fees associated with our acquisitions and enterprise resource planning (ERP) program. The Company’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these income and expense items will have on its reported net income, operating cash flow and its reported effective tax rate because these items, which could be significant, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. As a result, the Company does not provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure for its Adjusted EBITDA or free cash flow outlook or its effective tax rate on operations forecast. Please see the Forward-Looking Statements section of this release for a discussion of certain risks relevant to the Company’s outlook.
