• Net sales grew 5% despite a 2% decline in organic volume, as management successfully leveraged 3% pricing gains and a 3% contribution from acquisitions.

• Management attributes volume weakness to high-single-digit declines in new residential construction and mid-single-digit drops in repair and upgrade demand, driven by macroeconomic uncertainty and interest rates.

• Gross margin improved 50 basis points to 36.9% through price realization, growth in private brands, and increased penetration with small customers.

• Maintenance demand faced short-term volume pressure as customers with fixed budgets adjusted to significant price increases in fertilizer and agronomic products.

• The company expanded its total addressable market estimate from $25 billion to $36 billion by including adjacent product categories entered over the last five years.

• Digital sales on siteone.com increased over 50% year-to-date, with management noting that digitally engaged customers are gaining market share faster than the company average.

Fiscal 2026 Outlook and Strategic Assumptions

• Full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA is projected between $425 million and $455 million, which includes a $4 million to $5 million negative impact from an extra week in December.

• Management expects organic daily sales growth to be flat to up 1% for the full year, assuming pricing remains steady at approximately 3%.

• SG&A as a percentage of net sales is expected to be approximately flat for the year as operational initiatives and labor adjustments offset fuel and health care inflation.

• The company anticipates continued acquisition activity for the remainder of the year, supported by a robust pipeline and a target of adding $2 billion in acquired revenue over the next decade.

• Greenfield expansion is expected to accelerate to a pace of 5 to 10 new locations annually, though management remains selective based on specific market conditions.

Operational Risks and Structural Adjustments

• Fuel cost inflation added 15 basis points to SG&A, though this was mitigated by fuel surcharges that shifted the benefit to gross margin, resulting in a net neutral impact.

• The company completed the acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursery, now owning 100% of the business.

• A fifth distribution center became operational this year, contributing to higher freight and distribution costs compared to the prior year period.

• Management executed its largest share repurchase quarter since 2022, returning over $100 million to shareholders in response to recent share price weakness.

Regional demand trends and product category performance

• Management noted that while the Midwest remains strong, the Sunbelt (California, Arizona, and Texas) is seeing residential demand declines worse than the national average.

• The repair and upgrade market has taken a 'step down' due to energy volatility and weak consumer confidence, though management believes it can recover faster than new residential.

Pricing dynamics for PVC, grass seed, and fertilizer

• PVC price increases implemented in Q2 are expected to benefit the second half, while grass seed prices are transitioning from deflation to mid-single-digit increases.

• Fertilizer pricing, which reached double-digit inflation in Q2, is expected to moderate back to single digits in the second half of the year.

SG&A flexibility and productivity actions

• Management is taking additional actions in labor and other costs to adjust to lower volumes, aiming for SG&A leverage in the second half of the year.

• Branch consolidations are tracking ahead of the 80% sales retention target, supporting productivity without sacrificing market share.
