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

"We are proud of the Carlisle team’s ability to deliver record adjusted EPS of $6.27. Our ability to hold second quarter revenues flat at $1.4 billion and maintain margins above our Vision 2030 target in a second quarter that saw continued deterioration in new construction markets speaks to the resiliency of our pure play building products business.

"Our second quarter results demonstrate the underlying strength in our re-roofing markets at CCM and showcase our capacity to achieve top-tier margins even in a sluggish new construction landscape. The commercial re-roofing market is meeting mid-single-digit growth expectations, contributing reliable recurring revenue and accounting for approximately 70% of CCM's commercial roofing business.

"CCM’s solid performance in the quarter was offset by lower-than-expected results at CWT, influenced by continued declines in the residential end-markets. While residential end-markets were not expected to rebound in the quarter, the continued deterioration in key growth drivers—housing starts, interest rates and builder sentiment—put additional pressure on CWT sales.

"As a reminder, last quarter we maintained our full-year outlook based on increased market confidence in rising stability on the macroeconomic front, positive contractor sentiment reflected in our April Carlisle Market Survey, and the prospect of a more normal construction season. Many of our CCM contractors entered the second quarter with solid backlogs and anticipated robust activity, suggesting a strong market "load-in" typical of historical construction seasons. Unfortunately, the external risks that we identified in our first quarter earnings call materialized during the second quarter, leading to an increase in project delays, smaller-than-expected distributor inventory "load-in" related to commercial construction, and a slowdown in new construction bidding as economic uncertainties made decision-making more difficult. Insights from over 150 participants in our July Carlisle Market Survey confirmed this negative shift in contractor and distributor sentiment had accelerated in the quarter. The July survey also reflected that expectations of a continuation of those pressures will persist throughout the remainder of 2025.

"As a result, we have cautiously revised our full-year outlook to account for these market changes since our last earnings call. We now anticipate low-single-digit revenue growth, with an adjusted EBITDA margin decline of 150 basis points. This new outlook reflects lower volume expectations and limited traction on the price increases announced earlier this year, exclusive of tariff driven increases in a very limited number of purchased products.

"Throughout the quarter, we remained committed to our key strategic pillars to drive to our Vision 2030 financial goals. We maintained our focus on operational excellence through the Carlisle Operating System, completing major automation capital projects within our CWT factories. These investments, along with other COS actions, are expected to generate $12 million in adjusted EBITDA annually. We also continued to enhance the Carlisle Experience by investing in technical and customer service personnel to better support our customers. And we continued to meet our commitment to superior capital allocation, returning $343 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.

"We continued to execute our proven M&A playbook to strategically allocate capital toward acquisitions that align with our Vision 2030 strategy. Our most recent acquisition, Bonded Logic, strengthens our portfolio of innovative solutions for more energy-efficient buildings and enhances our position in the $14 billion addressable insulation market. This acquisition also supports the growth of our Henry UltraTouch denim insulation product, which was named a 2025 finalist for The Home Depot Merchandising Innovation Award—an honor recognizing products that are transforming the home improvement industry.

"Additionally, we expect annual synergies from our recent acquisitions of MTL, Plasti-Fab, and ThermaFoam to exceed $34 million, while gaining traction in cross-selling opportunities through our comprehensive building envelope systems approach.

"During the quarter, we advanced our innovation agenda, earning market recognition and awards for several new product launches including our dual-tank Flexible Fast Adhesive, Blueskin VP Tech, and the Henry UltraTouch insulation product.

"As we enter the second half of 2025, we remain focused on executing our Vision 2030 strategic initiatives to bolster our market leadership and secure a premium position through the Carlisle Experience. We will continue to enhance efficiency via automation, emerging AI technologies, and the Carlisle Operating System; expedite growth-driven innovation initiatives; and leverage synergies from integrating our strategic acquisitions. Coupled with disciplined capital deployment, we are committed to achieving our Vision 2030 objectives of $40 of adjusted EPS and 25% ROIC, built on the strength of our imperative business model, reinforced by well-known re-roofing drivers with the advantages of being a market leader in North America."

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Summary

Second Quarter 2025 Segment Highlights

Carlisle Construction Materials ("CCM")

• CCM revenue increased 0.6% (-0.6% organic) to $1,096 million, driven by the acquisition of MTL.
• CCM operating income decreased 7% to $324 million, and adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% to $346 million, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 31.6%. This decrease was the result of higher operating costs, investments in innovation and Carlisle Experience enhancements.

Carlisle Weatherproofing Technologies ("CWT")

• CWT revenue decreased 2% (-10% organic) to $354 million as the result of lower volumes due to the continued softness in residential and commercial end-markets, partially offset by revenue from the acquisitions of Plasti-Fab and ThermaFoam.
• CWT operating income decreased 28% to $43 million, and adjusted EBITDA decreased 13% to $71 million, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 19.9%. This decrease was primarily the result of lower volumes and the impact of volume deleverage.

Cash Flow

• For the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $289 million, and free cash flow from continuing operations was $228 million.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally use words such as "expect," "foresee," "anticipate," "believe," "project," "should," "estimate," "will," "plans," "intends," "forecast," and similar expressions, and reflect our expectations concerning the future. Such statements are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of publication and, as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen risks and uncertainties. It is possible that our future performance may differ materially from current expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements, due to a variety of factors such as: increasing price and product/service competition by foreign and domestic competitors, including new entrants; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; our mix of products/services; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; domestic and foreign governmental and public policy changes including environmental and industry regulations; the ability of our customers to maintain appropriate labor levels under U.S. immigration laws, policies and practices; the ability to meet our goals relating to our intended reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, including our net zero commitments; threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism; protection and validity of patent and other intellectual property rights; the identification of strategic acquisition targets and our successful completion of any transaction and integration of our strategic acquisitions; our successful completion of strategic dispositions; the cyclical nature of our businesses; the impact of information technology, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence or data security breaches at our businesses or third parties; the outcome of pending and future litigation and governmental proceedings; the emergence or continuation of widespread health emergencies; and the other factors discussed in the reports we file with or furnish to the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, the condition of the financial and credit markets and general domestic and international economic conditions, including inflation, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations, and tariffs. Further, any conflict in the international arena, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine and war in the Middle East, may adversely affect general market conditions and our future performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which that statement is made, and we undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances, including unanticipated events, after the date on which that statement is made, unless otherwise required by law. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of those factors, nor can it assess the impact of each of those factors on the business.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

Carlisle reports its financial results in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This press release also contains certain financial measures such as adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, organic revenue, and free cash flow that are not recognized under GAAP. Management believes that adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and organic revenue are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Carlisle’s and its segments' performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure core operating results due to potential variability across periods based on the timing, frequency and magnitude of such items. Management believes free cash flow is useful to investors as an additional way of viewing Carlisle's liquidity and provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Carlisle's cash flows. As a result, management believes that these measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in Carlisle’s businesses and evaluate Carlisle’s performance relative to similarly-situated companies. Reconciliations of these measures to amounts reported in Carlisle's consolidated financial statements are in the supplemental schedules of this press release. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Carlisle is not providing reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures because Carlisle does not provide GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis as Carlisle is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of adjusted items with unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to Carlisle's financial results computed in accordance with GAAP.
