“Overall, our fourth quarter operating results were largely in line with our expectations, as we continued to navigate through a dynamic geopolitical and macroeconomic environment,” said Jon Nudi, Masco’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We delivered adjusted operating profit of $259 million and adjusted earnings per share of $0.82 during the quarter. Additionally, our capital allocation strategy enabled us to return $281 million to shareholders in the quarter through dividends and share repurchases.”

“For the full year 2025, we delivered solid adjusted operating profit margins of 16.8 percent and adjusted earnings per share of $3.96, and we returned $832 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases,” continued Nudi. “We are taking decisive actions to further position our business to drive results and deliver long-term shareholder value. We recently established an Executive Committee with dual corporate and business unit representation to fully leverage our enterprise strengths, which will enable us to continue to deliver strong execution and accelerate growth moving forward.”

“We also began to implement various restructuring actions to further streamline our business, reduce headcount, and optimize operations. In connection with these actions, we incurred charges of approximately $18 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, and we expect to incur approximately $50 million in additional charges in 2026. We anticipate the savings generated from these actions will fund additional growth initiatives and contribute to future margin expansion.”

“As we move into 2026, we are announcing the integration of Liberty Hardware into Delta Faucet Company. This realignment is a key component of our consumer driven strategy to leverage our brands, capabilities, and scale across our organization,” said Nudi. “As a result of this integration, Liberty Hardware, which was previously reported in the Decorative Architectural Products segment, will be reported within our Plumbing Products segment moving forward.”

“For 2026, we believe sales across the global repair and remodel markets will be roughly flat. We expect our sales to be roughly flat to up low-single digits when adjusted for currency, as we expect to continue to outperform the market in 2026,” said Nudi. “Based on the market outlook, our expected operating performance, and our capital deployment actions, we anticipate full year adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $4.10 to $4.30 per share. With our industry leading brands, consumer-focused product portfolio, strong balance sheet, and disciplined capital allocation, we believe Masco is well positioned to continue to deliver long-term shareholder value.”

Dividend Declaration and Share Repurchase Authorization

Masco’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.32 per share, payable on March 9, 2026 to shareholders of record on February 20, 2026. The Board also authorized a new $2.0 billion share repurchase program effective February 10, 2026, replacing the existing authorization.

“Our dividend and our share repurchase program are important pillars of our capital allocation strategy to deliver value to our shareholders. The new $2.0 billion share repurchase program underscores Masco’s resilient business model, strong financial position and the Board’s confidence in our future performance,” concluded Nudi.
