"Berry Pallets brings the same qualities to the Upper Midwest: a well-run facility, a loyal customer base, and a team that knows their market. Our role is to provide both operations with the stability, investment, and broader resources to grow — without disrupting what has made them successful."The transactions further advance UFP Industries' capital allocation strategy, which prioritizes investments in core, higher-margin businesses, disciplined M&A, and the expansion of manufacturing capacity in markets that support national customers across packaging and industrial end uses.About UFP PackagingUFP Packaging is a leading North American provider of industrial packaging solutions and the largest producer of wooden pallets and crates in the United States.

"Supply chain strategy is part of that shift, alongside changes in who's building, what materials are trusted, and how long-term performance is being defined."The report translates those converging forces into several key trends shaping the future of construction, including:Supply Chain Realignment: Manufacturers and distributors are moving toward more regional sourcing and localized distribution models to improve reliability, shorten lead times, and better align inventory with jobsite demand.Changing Consumer Priorities: Homeowners are shifting their purchasing mindsets from "what's available" to "what lasts," placing greater value on durability, longevity, craftsmanship, and trusted brands.An Evolving Workforce: The construction workforce continues to diversify, with women now holding more than 1.3 million jobs—a 53% increase over the past decade—and Hispanic builders comprising nearly one-third of the workforce while driving 59% of industry growth between 2018 and 2023, according to the National Hispanic Construction Alliance (NHCA).Improved Innovation and Performance: Ongoing advancements in wood preservation and pressure-treatment standards are extending lumber lifespan—a meaningful measure of sustainability.The report also features firsthand perspectives from experts on how evolving materials, new products—like ProWood's TrueFrame™ Joist—and supply chain strategies are shaping the future of outdoor construction."When we're designing and building outdoor spaces, durability and consistency matter just as much as appearance," said Jonathan Moeller, owner of Colorado Custom Covers & Decks, who is featured in a builder Q&A within the State of the Industry Report. "Products like ProWood's TrueFrame Joist give us confidence in the structure beneath the deck and deliver lasting performance homeowners can rely on."Read the Q&A and more in the ProWood 2026 State of the Industry Report.ABOUT PROWOOD

Earnings were impacted by a higher estimated tax rate, year-end bonus adjustments from estimates to actual, and certain non-cash transactions.Adjusted EBITDA1 was $107.2 million in the quarter, or 8.1 percent of net sales compared to 9.1 percent a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA margin1 was 8.9 percent for the year, roughly 170bps higher than 2019.New product sales were 7.6 percent of total net sales.Cash flows from operating activities in 2025 was $546 million. Free cash flow1 of $451 million was used to repurchase nearly $450 million of our shares.Will Schwartz, President and CEO of UFP Industries, commented, "We continue to see trends stabilizing across the majority of our businesses. Despite generally soft end-market demand, our fourth quarter sales and profits were in line with internal expectations. While 2025 proved to be a challenging year given market volatility, our team made meaningful progress navigating this environment and executing on our strategy. Our disciplined focus on cost controls and growth investments leaves us on stronger footing and well-positioned as conditions improve. After several years of headwinds, we continue to see markets normalizing and are cautiously optimistic on our business prospects in 2026."Schwartz continued, "Our balanced portfolio enables us to drive shareholder value. To that point, we returned $515 million to shareholders in 2025 and finished the year with more than $900 million of cash and cash equivalents and $2.2 billion in total liquidity. We streamlined our cost structure with $60 million in cost reduction initiatives and have approached our portfolio through a more strategic lens. We plan to strengthen our core businesses, introduce innovative value-added products, and drive above market growth. Our M&A targets reflect our desire to strengthen our core businesses and drive growth in innovation and new products. We plan to use our strong balance sheet to pursue meaningful M&A while returning capital to shareholders through opportunistic share repurchases and dividends. We enter 2026 in a stronger position to drive improved results."Fourth Quarter 2025 HighlightsUFP Consolidated(In thousands)

Site Built organic unit sales declined 17 percent in the quarter from year ago levels due to weaker single-family residential activity in our core western markets.Factory Built organic unit sales grew 1 percent in the quarter from year ago levels.Concrete Forming Solutions organic unit sales grew 3 percent in the quarter from year ago levels.Commercial organic sales grew 3 percent in the quarter from year ago levels.Capital Structure, Leverage and Liquidity Information UFP Industries maintains a strong balance sheet and as of December 27, 2025, had liquidity of approximately $2.2 billion consisting of over $900 million of cash and $1.3 billion of remaining availability under its revolving credit facility and a shelf agreement with certain lenders. The company's return-focused approach to capital allocation includes the following:Acquisitions and Organic Growth. The company seeks strategic acquisitions and invests in organic growth opportunities when acquisition targets are not available at valuations that will allow us to meet or exceed targeted return rates. The company expects to invest approximately $300 million to $325 million on capital projects in 2026.Dividend payments. On February 12, 2026, the UFP Industries Board of Directors increased our quarterly cash dividend to $0.36 per share, which represents a 3 percent year-over-year increase. This dividend is payable on March 16, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 2, 2026. We continue to consider our payout ratio and yield when determining the appropriate dividend rate and have a long-term objective of increasing our dividend in line with our earnings and free cash flow growth.Share repurchases. As of December 27, 2025, we repurchased 4.5 million shares for $443 million, at an average share price of $98.39 for the year, representing approximately 7 percent of our shares outstanding at the beginning of the year.2026 Outlook and Long-Term TargetsWe anticipate that the current market environment will continue in 2026 and that overall demand will be flat to slightly down in each of our segments based on our sales mix. We anticipate markets tied to new residential construction will remain more challenged and see stabilization across our other end markets as an offset. However, we believe we are positioned well to perform better than the market due to market share gains across our portfolio and the execution of our cost out program. We anticipate initial stocking orders, upgraded manufacturing capacity, and expanded distribution will support momentum in our Deckorators and Surestone businesses in 2026.The company's long-term goals remain unchanged and include: 1) achieving 7-10 percent unit sales growth annually (including bolt-on acquisitions) with at least 10 percent of all sales coming from new products; 2) achieving 12.5 percent adjusted EBITDA margins; 3) earning an incremental return on new investments over our hurdle rate; and 4) maintaining a conservative capital structure.Conference CallUFP Industries will host a conference call on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, to discuss these results and outlook. The conference call will begin at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time and will be hosted by CEO Will Schwartz and CFO Michael Cole. Interested investors can access the webcast directly with this link (here). A replay of the call will be available through the UFP Investor Relations website at www.ufpinvestor.com for at least 90 days following the call.UFP Industries, Inc.UFP Industries, Inc. is a holding company whose operating subsidiaries – UFP Packaging, UFP Construction and UFP Retail – manufacture, distribute and sell a wide variety of value-added products used in residential and commercial construction, packaging and other industrial applications worldwide.

The company's premier retail brand, Deckorators® (booth W2573), continues to redefine outdoor living spaces. The Deckorators booth at IBS featured both the Summit decking line— manufactured with Deckorators' proprietary Surestone® technology – and the brand's new Altitude decking line, built with a fire-resistant core and featuring a Class B flame-spread rating.Also featured is ProWood's new TrueFrame™ Joist, a kiln-dried after treatment (KDAT) framing solution designed for use in deck substructures.

PR Newswire (US)

Front-of-home transformation showcases a top trend identified in annual Outdoor Living Report GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Feb. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Deckorators®, the leading innovator in outdoor living solutions, is declaring 2026 the "Year of the Front Yard," with a stunning front-of-home redesign partnership with Premier Outdoor Living founder and Deckorators Certified Elite Pro Sean Collinsgru. Drawing from insights within Deckorators' 2026 Outdoor Living Report, which revealed that curb appeal is playing a growing role in home-buying decisions, this project gives homeowners an idea of what's possible in modern front-yard design.







"Over the past year, our contractor partners reported an uptick in homeowner demand for front-of-home renovations," said Michelle Hendricks, Director of Marketing at Deckorators. "Sean transformed his own New Jersey farmhouse-style home into a gorgeous example of what the era of the front yard can be."Before the renovation, Collinsgru's front yard reflected a familiar issue for many homeowners: strong curb appeal with little usable living space. The redesign introduced the following upgrades:Conversation nook with built-in bench seating and integrated storage using Deckorators Voyage decking featuring Surestone® technology in CostaA refined all-season lounge delivering warmth for extended moments with seamlessly built-in Bromic Heating Platinum Electric Heaters and a custom Deckorators swing bedPaver-lined walkway and raised flowerbeds designed to improve flow and incorporate low-maintenance plantingsEntertainment zone featuring a built-in bar and Deckorators privacy screens in WildwoodFamily-friendly area with a secondary entrance and direct mudroom access"When outdoor spaces are designed for use, people naturally spend more time there," said Collinsgru. "This makeover demonstrates how applying familiar backyard design principles to the front of the home can make it a welcoming, functional space that encourages daily connection, conversation, and community."See the full front yard transformation. You can also follow Deckorators', Premier Outdoor Living's, and Bromic Heating's Instagram channels for weekly behind-the-scenes content from the project.About Deckorators

$UFPI - UFPI Q2 2014 Net Earnings up over 38 Percent over Previous Year

$UFPI - UFPI Q2 2014 Net Earnings up over 38 Percent over Previous Year

4:05 PM ET 7/16/14 | BusinessWire

Universal Forest Products, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPI) today reported second-quarter 2014 net earnings of $21.8 million, up 38.1 percent over net earnings of $15.8 million for the second quarter of 2013. Second-quarter 2014 diluted earnings per share were $1.08, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.79 for the same period of 2013. Net sales of $773 million in the second quarter of 2014 represented an increase of 4.6 percent over net sales of $738 million in the second quarter of 2013.

"We focused on profitability and made great strides," said Universal CEO Matthew J. Missad. "The people of this company did the right things to drive sales and increase profitability to meet our strategic goals: they created a better product mix of value-added sales and enhanced operational efficiencies, driving success in the second quarter."

The Company's earnings were reduced by $1.6 million for expected retroactive increases in U.S. duties assessed against a Chinese supplier of nails the Company imported prior to March 2013.

The Company benefited from a more stable lumber market in the second quarter of 2014 relative to the second quarter of 2013, when the lumber market fell for several weeks, adversely impacting the Company's profitability on certain products.

"We had strong sales gains to our retail market, as well as gains in sales to our industrial market. Our construction market saw strong sales to commercial construction; however, those gains were offset by declines in our framing operations, due to our decision to accept only business that meets certain profitability criteria, and to a drop in sales to manufactured housing customers," Missad explained.

The decline in manufactured housing sales was the result of the vertical integration of one of the Company's key customers and of a 37 percent drop in the OSB market. That drop in the OSB market caused declines in sales of $9 million and $6 million, respectively, to the Company's construction and retail markets in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013.

Missad said the Company is on track to achieve its goals of $3 billion in sales and operating margins at normal historical levels by 2017.

By market, the Company posted the following second-quarter 2014 gross sales results:

Retail: $349.1 million, up 11 percent over the same period of 2013.

As pent-up demand from a harsh and prolonged winter gave way to better weather in the second quarter, the Company saw strong sales to its retail customers, big box and independent, alike. The Company's efforts to improve service and introduce new products are yielding results. It remains optimistic about this market due to the success of new product opportunities, forecasts for continued growth in home improvement activities, and healthy comparable sales guidance by big box retailers.

Industrial: $203.5 million, up five percent over the second quarter of 2013.

Industrial production in the United States increased 0.6 percent in May 2014 after having declined 0.3 percent the previous month, and was 4.3 percent higher than the previous year, according to the most recent statistics available. Sales to existing customers grew at a healthy pace combined with a modest increase in sales to new customers. The Company continues to focus on growing with existing customers, on adding new customers and products and on expanding its reach into alternative packaging materials to provide complete packaging solutions.

Construction: $231.6, down four percent from the same period of 2013.

While the Company experienced strong sales to commercial construction, the drop in sales to this market relative to the second quarter of last year reflects the Company's more selective pricing strategies. In addition, as anticipated, the vertical integration of one of the Company's largest manufactured housing customers negatively impacted sales in the second quarter of 2014, as did the previously noted decrease in the price of OSB. Housing-related markets saw healthy growth in the second quarter of 2014 over the previous year, including manufactured housing and site-built residential, and are expected to see continued growth in 2014, according to industry forecasts. The Company remains focused on creating steady, long-term growth by maintaining a diversified business and customer base in the construction market.
