11. Restructuring

  1. RESTRUCTURING

The Company may incur restructuring, and other exit costs in connection with its global cost reduction, product line and productivity initiatives and the Company’s growth strategy.

Building Materials Business Exit Restructuring

On November 4, 2024, the Company entered into a related party agreement to sell its Insulation segment's building materials business in China and Korea to a member of the business’ management team. During 2024, the Company recorded the assets at the fair value less cost to sell, which was less than the carrying value and resulted in an impairment of $91 million related primarily to Property, Plant and Equipment and Goodwill.

Following the signing of the agreement, the Company took actions to reduce headcount and implement cost savings initiatives. These actions are expected to result in cumulative costs of approximately $15 million, primarily related to severance and other exit costs. During the first three months of 2025, the Company didnot incur any charges related to this project.

Acquisition-Related Restructuring

Following the acquisition of Masonite, within the Company's Doors segment, the Company took actions to realize expected synergies from the newly acquired operations. During the first three months of 2025, the Company recorded $4 million of charges, all of which were cash charges primarily related to severance. The Company is continuing to review synergies as a result of this acquisition and expects to incur a material amount of incremental costs throughout 2025 and into future years.

Global Composites Restructuring

In December 2023, the Company took actions to reduce costs throughout its global Composites segment given current market conditions, primarily through global workforce reductions, as well as streamlining manufacturing and supply chain operations. These actions primarily include salaried workforce reductions and the relocation of the Changzhou, China operations to Hangzhou, China.

In connection with these actions, the Company estimates it will incur cash charges in the range of $20 million to $30 million, primarily related to severance and other exit costs, including termination costs, and non-cash charges in the range of $15 million to $20 million, primarily related to accelerated depreciation.

During the first three months of 2025, the Company didnot incur any charges related to this project.

Protective Packaging Exit

In May 2023, the Company made the decision to exit the Protective Packaging business within the Roofing segment, including the production and sale of wood packaging, metal packaging and custom products. Exiting Protective Packaging allowed the Company to focus resources on the growth of its building materials products, which supports the future growth aspirations of the enterprise. With the exit of the Protective Packaging business, the Company closed its plants in Dorval, Quebec and Mission, British Columbia, Canada. The Company also ceased operations at its Qingdao, China facility.

In connection with the exit of the Protective Packaging business, the Company estimates that it will incur cash charges of approximately $15 million, primarily related to severance and other exit costs. Additionally, the Company expects to incur total non-cash charges in the range of $70 million to $75 million, primarily related to accelerated depreciation of property, plant and equipment and accelerated amortization of definite-lived intangibles.

During the first three months of 2025, the Company didnot incur any charges relating to this project. The Company does not expect to incur any future charges.

Wabash Facility Closure

In April 2023, the Company took actions to support its strategy to operate a flexible and cost-efficient manufacturing network through decisions to relocate the Wabash, Indiana mineral wool operations to Joplin, Missouri, and to exit the U.S. granulated mineral wool market. These actions resulted in cumulative costs of approximately $30 million in 2023, primarily related to severance and accelerated depreciation.

During the first three months of 2025, the Company didnot incur any charges relating to this project. The Company does not expect to incur any future charges.

European Operating Structure Optimization

In March 2023, the Company took actions to optimize the operating structure of its segments across Europe to increase its competitiveness. These actions are expected to result in cumulative costs of approximately $20 million, primarily related to severance and other exit costs. During the first three months of 2025, the Company recorded $1 million of income primarily related to a reduction in severance. The Company does not expect to recognize significant incremental costs related to these actions.
