Comments from Chris Koch, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer

"Carlisle delivered another quarter of strong performance, despite a continued decline in residential markets along with the well-known weather-related and port strike events, which negatively impacted shipping days, contractor days on the roof and manufacturing output. We continued to execute on our Vision 2030 strategies, and we are pleased with our third quarter performance against our 2030 goal of $40 of adjusted EPS, growing 24% year-over-year and adjusted EBITDA margins expanding to 27.6%.

"CCM continued its strong momentum with its 2024 accomplishments into the third quarter, driven by healthy contractor backlogs, robust re-roofing activity, and excellent margin performance. CCM sales were up 9% year-over-year assisted by the inventory normalization in the channel and the acquisition of MTL. CCM's impressive 32.8% adjusted EBITDA margin in the third quarter reflected strong volume leverage, a positive raw material environment, and excellent operating execution through the Carlisle Operating System (COS).

"As we look at CWT’s performance, while we were pleased with progress on share gain initiatives within CWT, a higher interest rate environment, low housing turnover, and affordability challenges resulted in a further slowing of housing activity in the quarter. For the quarter, these challenges impacted sales and drove a decline of 3% year-over-year. Despite the near-term challenges facing CWT, we remain extremely pleased and optimistic about the prospects for this segment.

"We continue to be encouraged by the positive long-term outlook in the North America building products markets and the strength of the Carlisle business model. Our pivot to a "pure play" building products company is delivering the expected outcomes and demonstrating our commitment to being superior capital allocators. Additionally, we believe that leveraging the megatrends around energy efficiency and labor savings, along with growing re-roof demand, and our introduction of innovative new products are creating additional catalysts for growth. Similar to Vision 2025, we believe Vision 2030 positions us well to drive above-market growth and earn a premium in the marketplace.
