Reworded paragraphs (31)

Previous wording

Over the last several quarters, the Company has, to some extent, offset the impact of lower volume from reduced demand, pricing pressures in competitive markets and higher input costs through productivity gains and benefits from restructuring initiatives. During 2022 and 2023, the Company implemented a number of restructuring actions, productivity initiatives and manufacturing enhancements focused on reducing costs to enhance future performance, including certain facility, asset and product rationalizations and workforce reductions. The Company anticipates that when completed these projects will deliver annual savings of approximately $150 million, with an estimated cost of approximately $215 million. In 2024, the Company announced further restructuring actions, including additional facility, assets and product rationalizations and workforce reductions to further reduce costs and improve the business for the future. The Company anticipates that when completed, these projects will deliver annual savings of approximately $140 million, with an estimated cost of approximately $145 million. In 2025, the Company announced additional restructuring actions, including assets and product rationalizations and workforce reductions to further reduce costs and streamline the business for the future. The Company anticipates that when completed, these projects will deliver annual savings of approximately $10 million, with an estimated cost of approximately $20 million. Execution timelines will vary by project, with some initiatives extending into 2026.

Previous wording

The Company continues to actively monitor trade policy and tariff announcements, including various executive orders issued by the current U.S. presidential administration. Due to its global footprint and manufacturing operations across 19 countries, the Company is generally able to provide its customers with regional supply. In addition, certain products the Company manufactures in Mexico are exempt from recent tariffs announced against Mexico, as such products are compliant with the United States-Mexico-Canada trading agreement. However, certain of the Company’s sourcing and upstream and downstream supply chain processes occur outside the U.S. or with vendors, suppliers, or customers located outside the U.S. The Company has begun to take steps to mitigate the implemented tariffs through managing inventory of sourced products, adjusting prices and optimizing its supply chain. At a 10% baseline tariff rate, the Company expects to incur an annualized cost of approximately $50 million related to such tariffs. On July 7, 2025, the U.S. government issued an executive order establishing a deadline of August 1, 2025, for finalizing tariffs on individual trading partners either through negotiations or by decree at amounts that may or may not be aligned with those announced on April 2, 2025 while also announcing specific tariffs on key trading partners such as the EU, Canada and a number of countries in Asia. The Company continues to monitor changing tariff levels and adjust its strategies to mitigate their impact as trade policy evolves. However, the duration, magnitude and scope of any additional tariffs, trade restrictions, retaliatory or other measures are difficult to predict, including any related impacts to consumer demand, along with the extent (if any) to which the Company will be able to offset the impacts of such actions through mitigation efforts. These tariff actions, retaliatory measures, or other trade restrictions, could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

The Company continues to actively monitor trade policy and tariff announcements, including various executive orders issued by the current U.S. presidential administration. Due to its global footprint and manufacturing operations across 19 countries, the Company is generally able to provide its customers with regional supply. However, the current tariff policies have impacted certain of the Company’s sourcing and upstream and downstream supply chain processes occurring outside the U.S. and certain vendors, suppliers, and customers located outside the U.S. Based on recent changes, engineered wood and laminate imports will now be subject to reciprocal tariffs like other flooring categories, which should benefit domestically produced products. The Company has begun to take steps to mitigate the implemented tariffs through managing inventory of sourced products, adjusting prices as the tariff trade policy evolves and optimizing its supply chain. At a 10% baseline tariff rate, the Company expects to incur an annualized cost of approximately $50 million related to such tariffs.
