"We finished our fiscal year with a respectable fourth quarter delivering adjusted earnings per share of $0.74," said Worthington Enterprises President and CEO Andy Rose. "Building Products had a solid quarter benefiting from strong contributions from WAVE and our water business but was offset by lower contributions from ClarkDietrich which faced some margin compression. Consumer Products performed well despite headwinds due to volume being pulled ahead into the previous quarter and some softening in consumer spending. While both segments saw lower volumes, the overall health of the company is good. Our employees continue to deliver, and I could not be more proud of the focus and hard work they carry out every day."
Consolidated Quarterly Results
Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 were $318.8 million, a decrease of $50.0 million, or 13.6%, from the prior year quarter, driven primarily by lower volume across all segments.
The operating loss of $56.1 million for the fourth quarter was unfavorable to the $15.3 million of operating income in the prior year quarter, due to significantly higher impairment and restructuring charges stemming from the deconsolidation of the former Sustainable Energy Solutions segment, effective May 29, 2024, as discussed below under Recent Business Developments. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $5.8 million, down $22.8 million from the prior year quarter, on lower volumes in Consumer Products combined with increased operating losses in Sustainable Energy Solutions.
Equity income decreased $10.9 million from the prior year quarter to $40.4 million, driven by lower contributions from ClarkDietrich which was down $13.8 million from the near record results in the prior year quarter, partially offset by strong contributions from WAVE which increased $3.3 million compared to the prior year quarter.
Miscellaneous expense was unfavorable by $11.1 million from the prior year quarter due to the write-down of an investment in a note receivable as a result of a change in business strategy in the Sustainable Energy Solutions business, while net interest expense was favorable $2.6 million over the prior year quarter due to lower average debt levels.
Income tax expense was $5.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to $13.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was driven by lower pre-tax earnings and discrete items related to the deconsolidation of the Sustainable Energy Solutions business. Tax expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 reflects an annual effective rate of 52.6% compared to 21.5% in the prior year. On an adjusted basis, the annual effective tax rate was 23.5% compared to 21.9% in the prior year.
Balance Sheet
Total debt was $298.1 million at the end of fiscal 2024, down approximately $391.8 million from May 31, 2023, due to the early redemption of the senior unsecured notes set to mature on August 10, 2024, and April 15, 2026, both of which were paid off earlier in the fiscal year. The Company ended the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 with cash of $244.2 million, of which, $83.8 million was used after the quarter ended to fund the remaining purchase price of Hexagon Ragasco, as discussed below under Recent Business Developments.
Quarterly Segment Results
Consumer Products generated net sales of $125.3 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, down $23.5 million, or 16%, from the prior year quarter on lower volume. Adjusted EBITDA was down $12.5 million to $17.1 million, driven by the impact of lower volume, and to a lesser extent, a $2.4 million increase in SG&A expense due to higher benefit related costs and increased marketing spend.
Building Products generated net sales of $153.6 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, down $21.0 million, or 12%, from the prior year quarter due to lower volume and an unfavorable shift in product mix. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $13.1 million from the prior year quarter to $51.6 million on the combined impact of lower contributions of equity income from ClarkDietrich and unfavorable mix.
Sustainable Energy Solutions' net sales totaled $39.9 million, down 12.0%, or $5.5 million, from the prior year quarter due to lower average selling prices and lower volume. Adjusted EBITDA was $1.2 million, down $3.1 million from the prior year quarter as lower average selling prices compressed gross profit. During the quarter, the Company sold an interest in the Sustainable Energy Solutions business to Hexagon Composites ASA ("Hexagon"), creating a new unconsolidated joint venture, in which the Company retained a 49% noncontrolling interest, as discussed below under Recent Business Developments. Historical results for Sustainable Energy Solutions are reported as part of Unallocated Corporate and Other, while future results, starting with the first quarter of fiscal 2025, will flow through equity income within Unallocated Corporate and Other.
Recent Developments
- On May 29, 2024, the Company formed a new unconsolidated joint venture with Hexagon, comprised of the former Sustainable Energy Solutions segment. Pursuant to the transaction, Hexagon acquired a 49% stake in the joint venture for approximately $10 million plus closing cash. The Company retained a 49% noncontrolling interest in the joint venture, with the remaining 2% held by the executive management team of Sustainable Energy Solutions.
- On June 3, 2024, the Company acquired Hexagon Ragasco, a leading manufacturer of composite propane cylinders. The total purchase price was approximately $98 million, subject to closing adjustments, $11.4 million of which was deposited into escrow at fiscal year end.
- On June 25, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per common share payable on September 27, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 13, 2024, a 6.25% increase or $0.01 per share, compared to the prior quarter.
Outlook
"We are optimistic heading into our new fiscal year having recently completed the acquisition of Hexagon Ragasco along with the formation of our Sustainable Energy Solutions joint venture," Rose said. "We have market leading brands, a rock-solid balance sheet that will enable us to take advantage of growth opportunities as they arise, and a team focused on driving long-term profitable growth for Worthington Enterprises."

Non-GAAP Footnotes:
(1) Reflects reductions in certain corporate overhead costs that no longer exist post-Separation. These costs were included in continuing operations as they represent general corporate overhead that was historically allocated to the Company's former steel processing business but did not meet the requirements to be presented as discontinued operations.
(2) Reflects the following non-cash charges in miscellaneous expense:
- Pre-tax charges of $8,010 and $4,774 from separate pension lift-out transaction completed in February 2024 and August 2022, respectively, to transfer the pension benefit obligation under The Gerstenslager Company Bargaining Unit Employees' Pension Plan to third-party insurance companies.
- A pre-tax charge of $11,170 during the current year quarter due to the write-down of an investment in notes receivable that was determined to be other than temporarily impaired.
(3) On August 3, 2022, the Company sold its 50% noncontrolling equity investment in ArtiFlex Manufacturing, LLC, resulting in a pre-tax loss of $16,059 in equity income related to the sale.
(4) Reflects a pre-tax loss of $1,534 realized in connection with the July 28, 2023, early redemption of the 2026 Notes. The loss resulted primarily from unamortized issuance costs and discount included in the carrying amount of the 2026 Notes and the acceleration of the remaining unamortized loss in equity related to a treasury lock derivative instrument executed in connection with the issuance of the 2026 Notes.
(5) Reflects the following activity within equity income associated with the sale or divestiture of assets at Taxi Workhorse Holdings, LLC:
- A net gain of $2,780 associated with the divestiture of the Brazilian operations.
- A net gain of $2,063 related to a sale-leaseback transaction during the three months ended May 31, 2023.
(6) Reflects the settlement of certain participant balances within the pension plan maintained by WAVE.
WORTHINGTON ENTERPRISES, INC.
USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS
NON-GAAP MEASURES. These materials include certain financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The non-GAAP financial measures typically exclude items that management believes are not reflective of, and thus should not be included when evaluating the performance of the Company's ongoing operations. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's performance, engage in financial and operational planning, and determine incentive compensation. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information and additional perspective on the performance of the Company's ongoing operations and should not be considered as an alternative to the comparable GAAP measure. Additionally, management believes these non-GAAP measures allow for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the Company's businesses and enables investors to evaluate operations and future prospects in the same manner as management.
The following provides an explanation of each non-GAAP measure presented in these materials:
Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income (loss) excluding the items listed below, to the extent naturally included in operating income (loss).
Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations is defined as net earnings from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest ("net earnings from continuing operations") excluding the after-tax effect of the excluded items outlined below.
Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations ("Adjusted EPS from continuing operations") – is defined as adjusted net earnings from continuing operations divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.
Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. EBITDA is calculated by adding or subtracting, as appropriate, interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation, and amortization to/from net earnings from continuing operations attributable to controlling interest, which is further adjusted to exclude impairment and restructuring charges (gains) as well as other items that management believes are not reflective of, and thus should not be included when evaluating the performance of its ongoing operations, as outlined below. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation due to its non-cash nature, which is consistent with how management assesses operating performance. At the segment level, adjusted EBITDA includes expense allocations for centralized corporate back-office functions that exist to support the day-to-day business operations. Public company and other governance costs are held at the corporate-level.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by net sales.
Exclusions from Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management believes it is useful to exclude the following items from the non-GAAP measures presented in this report for its own and investors' assessment of the business for the reasons identified below:
- Impairment charges are excluded because they do not occur in the ordinary course of our ongoing business operations, are inherently unpredictable in timing and amount, and are non-cash, which we believe facilitates the comparison of historical, current and forecasted financial results.
- Restructuring activities, which can result in both discrete gains and/or losses, consist of established programs that are not part of our ongoing operations, such as divestitures, closing or consolidating facilities, employee severance (including rationalizing headcount or other significant changes in personnel), and realignment of existing operations (including changes to management structure in response to underlying performance and/or changing market conditions). These items are excluded because they are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business.
- Separation costs, which consist of direct and incremental costs incurred in connection with the completed Separation are excluded as they are one-time in nature and are not expected to occur in period following the Separation. These costs include fees paid to third-party advisors, such as investment banking, audit and other advisory services as well as direct and incremental costs associated with the Separation of shared corporate functions. Results in the current fiscal year also include incremental compensation expense associated with the modification of unvested short and long-term incentive compensation awards, as required under the employee matters agreement executed in conjunction with the Separation.
- Loss on early extinguishment of debt is excluded because it does not occur in the normal course of business and may obscure analysis of trends and financial performance. Additionally, the amount and frequency of this type of charge is not consistent and is significantly impacted by the timing and size of debt extinguishment transactions.
- Pension settlement charges are excluded because due to their non-cash nature and the fact that they do not occur in the normal course of business and may obscure analysis of trends and financial performance. These transactions typically result from the transfer of all or a portion of the total projected benefit obligation to third-party insurance companies.
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION. These materials include certain financial data and operating metrics that are presented on a pro forma basis to illustrate the estimated effects of the Separation of Worthington Steel from the historical combined company, which was consummated on December 1, 2023, and to give effect to divested operations historically presented within Other. Management believes these pro forma measures provide investors with useful supplemental financial information regarding the performance of the Company's continuing operations after reflecting the Separation. This pro forma financial information has been prepared based upon the best available information and management estimates and is subject to assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying footnotes. They are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Company's financial position or results of operations had the Separation occurred as of and for the periods indicated. In addition, the pro forma financial information is being provided for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the Company's future results of operations or financial condition had the Separation and related transactions been completed on the dates assumed. Management believes these assumptions and estimates are reasonable, given the information available on the date of this release.
