“While the headwinds we discussed last quarter continue, including softening demand trends, persistent inflation and tighter consumer spending, we have moved quickly to adjust our costs and successfully mitigated margin impact in the first quarter. We continue to expect adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $3.10 to $3.40 per share for 2023. We remain confident in our strong business fundamentals and are committed to continued prudent investment in our market leading brands, service levels, and innovative products to best position Masco for long-term shareholder value creation,” concluded Allman.
