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

"Throughout 2025, despite continued headwinds in new construction and a complex economic environment, we continued to execute against our Vision 2030 strategy, and we remain very confident in our key long-term financial objective of delivering $40 of adjusted EPS. Over the course of the year, we made progress on all our key pillars of Vision 2030. We increased investments in innovation to develop new market-leading products. We enhanced our emphasis on the Carlisle Operating System ("COS") and expanded automation in our factories to drive operational excellence. We added significant management talent and further elevated the Carlisle Experience to strengthen customer loyalty and service. And above all else, we continued to deliver on our commitment to being superior capital allocators.

"Carlisle's performance during 2025 adds to our history of resilience through the economic cycles and challenges we have faced over the years, such as the Covid pandemic. We delivered another solid year of cash flow, generating over $1 billion of operating cash flow, which continued to provide balance sheet optionality. As the M&A environment in 2025 was challenging, we turned a significant portion of that cash flow to share repurchases, as we continued to see this as a solid opportunity for capital deployment.

"In the fourth quarter, revenue increased 0.4% to $1.1 billion. At CCM, solid re-roofing demand, which represents approximately 70% of our commercial roofing business, continued to help stabilize our business as new construction markets work through the bottom of the cycle. At CWT, our recent acquisitions and operational initiatives contributed to revenue growth, and we are well-positioned to capitalize on the growing need for energy-efficient weatherproofing solutions.

"North America is the most attractive building-products market globally, supported by strong, long-term fundamentals including the demand for energy-efficient solutions, the need to improve labor productivity, and the recurring maintenance requirements of an aging non-residential building stock—over 70% of which is more than 25 years old. Buildings are a critical and indispensable component of the physical economy. They must be built, maintained, and continuously improved. This structural reality reinforces the durability and necessity of our end markets.

"Carlisle's imperative business continues to benefit from a strong re-roofing market, and we continued to benefit from our position as a North American leader in the world's largest building-products market. Carlisle's leadership position in this essential market, highly responsive cost structure combined with the discipline of COS and our proven capital allocation framework, continues to translate into superior and sustainable margin performance.

"Looking to 2026, our outlook reflects low-single-digit revenue growth with approximately 50 basis points of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion. While we expect the current challenging market conditions to continue into the first half of the year, our solid financial position, robust cash flow, and ongoing commitment to operational excellence enable us to continue generating strong returns, pursue value-enhancing acquisitions, and deliver shareholder value. We also plan to repurchase up to $1 billion of shares in 2026."

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Summary

Fourth Quarter 2025 Segment Highlights

Carlisle Construction Materials ("CCM")

• CCM revenue decreased 0.8% (-1% organic) to $827 million, as healthy re-roof activity was more than offset by continued softness in commercial new construction activity.

• CCM operating income decreased 11% to $198 million, and adjusted EBITDA decreased 10% to $222 million, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.8%. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to strategic investments in the business to support longer-term growth initiatives.

Carlisle Weatherproofing Technologies ("CWT")

• CWT revenue increased 4% (-7% organic) to $301 million, as M&A contributions more than offset continued softness in residential and non-residential new construction markets.

• CWT operating income decreased 46% to $14 million, and adjusted EBITDA decreased 10% to $48 million, reflecting an adjusted EBITDA margin of 15.9%. The decrease in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a decline in volumes.

Cash Flow

• For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 billion, and free cash flow from continuing operations was $972 million.

• During the year ended December 31, 2025, we invested $241 million in the business with $131 million in capital expenditures and $110 million in acquisitions. We also returned $1.5 billion to shareholders through $1.3 billion of share repurchases and $181 million of dividends.

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; 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.
