Segment Performance
- Roofing net sales increased 8% to $1.1 billion in third-quarter 2023 compared with third-quarter 2022, with strong demand in several markets driven primarily by higher levels of storm activity, in addition to favorable mix and positive price. EBIT increased $114 million to $343 million, expanding EBIT margins to 32% and EBITDA margins to 33%. The EBIT improvement was primarily due to positive price/cost as well as higher volumes.
- Insulation net sales decreased 5% to $913 million in third-quarter 2023 compared with third-quarter 2022. The change was primarily due to lower volumes in both the North American residential insulation and technical and global insulation businesses partially offset by positive price realization. EBIT decreased $23 million to $150 million, with EBIT margins of 16% and EBITDA margins of 22%, on lower volumes and planned maintenance downtime and production investments, partially offset by positive price realization.
- Composites net sales decreased 11% to $567 million in third-quarter 2023 compared with third-quarter 2022, primarily due to lower volumes and price declines resulting from lower spot prices in glass reinforcements. EBIT decreased $46 million to $80 million while delivering 14% EBIT margins and 22% EBITDA margins. With slowing demand for glass reinforcements, the company continued to take actions to balance inventories with corresponding production downtime.
