DALLAS, July 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lennox (NYSE:LII), a leader in energy-efficient climate-control solutions, today reported second quarter financial results with $1.5 billion of revenue, $354 million of operating income, and $7.82 GAAP diluted earnings per share.

Revenue grew 3% to $1.5 billion. Segment profit increased 11% to $354 million. Segment margin was up 170 basis points to 23.6%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 14% to $7.82.

"We delivered revenue growth and margin expansion in both segments by skillfully navigating turbulent external conditions. Our team's agility drove productivity and targeted cost actions to offset inflationary pressures, ensuring our pricing remains aligned with the value we deliver," said CEO, Alok Maskara. "We remain energized by the current momentum in our growth initiatives to elevate customer experience, expand our portfolio, and strengthen our differentiated go-to-market strategy. Given our strong results and continued momentum on our transformation plan, we are raising our full-year guidance. We now expect revenue growth of 3% percent and adjusted earnings per share of $23.25 to $24.25."

The Home Comfort Solutions segment delivered 3% revenue growth in the second quarter, supported by favorable mix and growth initiatives. Segment profit margins expanded by 200 basis points, as strong mix and price performance more than offset the impact of softer sales volumes and inflationary pressures, including tariffs. These results reflect strong internal execution, delivering profitable growth while navigating a complex and evolving external environment.

Building Climate Solutions segment revenue increased by 5% this quarter, with segment margins expanding as favorable mix and price more than offset softer sales volumes. The team remained focused on execution, driving productivity and implementing targeted cost actions to help manage inflationary pressures. Despite these near-term challenges, backlog remains strong and the emergency replacement growth initiative continues to gain traction, supporting our efforts to regain share and accelerate future growth.

SECOND QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

(All comparisons are year-over-year, unless otherwise noted)

Revenue: $1.5 billion was up 3% driven by favorable mix and price benefits.

Operating Income: $354 million, up 11%, with operating profit margin of 23.6%, up 150 basis points.

Segment Profit: $354 million, up 11%, and segment profit margin of 23.6%, up 170 basis points. Profit improvement can be attributed to $114 million of mix/price benefits, driven primarily by new product mix. This was partially offset by $42 million decrease in sales volumes; $16 million of product cost primarily related to recent inflationary impacts; and $21 million of other costs, including distribution investments, freight and selling expense.

Net Income: $278 million, or $7.82 per share, compared to $246 million, or $6.87 per share, in the prior-year quarter.

Adjusted Net Income: $278 million, or $7.82 per share, compared to $244 million, or $6.83 per share, in the prior-year quarter.

Cash Flow: Operating cash flow was $87 million compared to $184 million in the prior-year quarter. Net capital expenditures were $28 million compared to $32 million in the prior-year quarter. This quarter $210 million of shares were repurchased.

Home Comfort Solutions: Business segment revenue was $1.0 billion, up 3%. Segment profit was $255 million, up 12%, and segment margin was 25.3%, up 200 basis points. Segment profit increased $27 million compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase was driven by $84 million in mix/price benefits. This was partially offset by a $36 million decrease in sales volumes and $11 million in product cost inflation net of factory productivity. Profit was also impacted by $10 million of continued investments in distribution and selling as well as other inflationary impacts.

Building Climate Solutions: Business segment revenue was $492 million, up 5%. Segment profit was $123 million, up $9 million or 7%, and segment margin improved 60 basis points to 24.9%. This increase was driven by $31 million in mix/price benefits. This was partially offset by a $6 million decrease in sales volumes, $5 million of product cost inflation net of factory productivity, and $11 million from investment in distribution and selling as well as other inflationary impacts.

Corporate and Other: Corporate expenses were $24 million, flat to the prior-year quarter.

FULL YEAR 2025 GUIDANCE

For full year 2025, earnings per share is now expected to be within the range of $23.25 to $24.25.

Revenue is now anticipated to increase by approximately 3%. We continue to expect pricing to offset the inflationary pressures.

Capital expenditures are still projected to be approximately $150 million, and the Free Cash Flow guidance range remains at $650 million to $800 million.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS & NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The statements in this document that are not historical statements, including statements regarding the 2025 full-year outlook and expected consolidated and segment financial results, as well as financial targets for future years, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available as well as management's assumptions and beliefs today. These statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the statements, and investors should not place undue reliance on them. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements include risks that the North American unitary HVAC and refrigeration markets perform worse than current assumptions. Additional risks include but are not limited to competition in the HVACR business; our ability to successfully develop and market new products or execute our business strategy; our ability to meet and anticipate customer demands; our ability to continue to license or enforce our intellectual property rights; our ability to attract, motivate, develop, and retain our employees, as well as labor relations problems; artificial intelligence technologies; a decline in new construction activity and related demand for our products and services; the impact of weather on our business; the impact of higher raw material prices and significant supply interruptions; product liability, warranty claims, or recalls; changes in environmental and climate-related legislation or government regulations or policies; changes in tax legislation; the impact of new or increased trade tariffs; improper conduct by any of our employees, agents, or business partners; litigation risks; general economic conditions in the United States and abroad; extraordinary events beyond our control; risks associated with our international operations; cyber-attacks and other disruptions or misuse of information systems; and our ability to successfully realize, complete and integrate acquisitions.

For information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties, see LII's publicly available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LII disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures appearing in this document to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are included in the Annex to this document.

This document includes forward-looking statements regarding segment profit, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, and Debt to EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in environmental liabilities, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, future restructuring costs, and other structural changes or their probable significance. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on LII's full year GAAP financial results.
