Quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of annual earnings, primarily due to the different level of sales in each quarter of the year and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions.

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The statements include management estimates and judgments, where appropriate. Management utilizes estimates to record many items, including certain asset values, contingent purchase price liabilities, allowances for bad debts, inventory obsolescence and lower of cost and net realizable value charges, warranty reserves, workers’ compensation, general liability and environmental claims, and income taxes. When preparing an estimate, management determines the amount based upon the consideration of relevant information and may confer with outside parties, including external counsel. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the 2025 presentation, most notably disaggregated expenditures for our operating segments related to our December 31, 2024 adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” See Note 2 for additional details.

Acquisitions and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

In December 2024, we acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of A. Zahner Company (“Zahner”), based in Kansas City, Missouri. Zahner is a designer and manufacturer of exterior metal architectural solutions. The operations, assets and liabilities of Zahner are included in our Architectural Specialties segment.

In April 2024, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in 3form, LLC (“3form”) based in Salt Lake City, Utah, from Hunter Douglas, Inc. 3form is a designer and manufacturer of architectural resin and glass products used for specialty walls, partitions and ceilings. The operations, assets and liabilities of 3form are included in our Architectural Specialties segment.

In January 2024, we entered into a strategic partnership and equity investment in Overcast Innovations LLC (“Overcast”) with McKinstry Essention, LLC whereby we contributed $5.5 million in exchange for a 19.5% ownership interest in Overcast, with future rights to increase our ownership interest. Overcast is a solutions company offering prefabricated ceiling cloud systems, modular grid platforms and engineering design services to reduce waste and inefficiencies in the built environment. Our investment and equity earnings and losses in Overcast are included in our Unallocated Corporate segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which modifies the disclosure requirements for income taxes. This ASU requires disclosure of tabular statutory to effective tax rate reconciliation in both percentages and dollars, additional disaggregated rate reconciliation categories and disaggregation of both income taxes paid and income tax expense by jurisdiction. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We expect this ASU to impact only our disclosures, with no impact to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,” which expands disclosure of significant costs and expenses. This ASU requires expanded disclosures of significant costs and expenditures within cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, including amounts of inventory purchased, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. This ASU also requires expanded qualitative disclosures, including a description of selling expenses and a description of non-disaggregated expenses. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We expect this ASU to impact only our disclosures, with no impact to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Net sales by major customer channel are as follows:

Distributors – represents net sales to building materials distributors who re-sell our products to contractors, subcontractors’ alliances, large architect and design firms, and major facility owners. Geographically, this category includes sales throughout the U.S., Canada, and Latin America.

Home centers – represents net sales to home centers, such as Lowe’s Companies, Inc. and The Home Depot, Inc. This category includes sales primarily to U.S. customers.

Direct customers – represents net sales to contractors, subcontractors, and large architect and design firms. This category includes sales primarily to U.S. customers.

Other – represents net sales to independent retailers and certain national account customers, including wholesalers who re-sell our products to dealers who service builders, contractors, online customers, major facility owners, group purchasing organizations and maintenance, repair and operating entities, and original product manufacturers.

|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |

Effective tax rate |  |  | 23.9 | % |  |  | 24.3 | % |  |  | 23.8 | % |  |  | 24.8 | %

The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2025, in comparison to the same periods in 2024, was primarily due to the benefit of federal investment tax credits.

It is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits could significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. However, an estimate of the range of reasonably possible outcomes cannot be reliably made at this time. Changes to unrecognized tax benefits could result from the expiration of statutes of limitations, the completion of ongoing examinations, or other unforeseen circumstances.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. federal government enacted the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” resulting in significant changes to the federal tax code, most notably the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. We are currently evaluating the enacted legislation and refining its estimated impact on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, most notably a forecasted 2025 reduction in federal cash taxes.

NOTE 13. DEBT

Our long-term debt is comprised of borrowings outstanding under our $950.0 million variable rate senior secured credit facility, which is comprised of a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (with a $150.0 million sublimit for letters of credit) and a $450.0 million Term Loan A. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the principal balance of our Term Loan A was $416.2 million and $427.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility were $70.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively. We also have a $25.0 million bi-lateral letter of credit facility.

(dollar amounts in millions, except per share data)

We utilize lines of credit and other commercial commitments to ensure that adequate funds are available to meet operating requirements. Letters of credit are currently arranged through our revolving credit facility and our bi-lateral facility. Letters of credit may be issued to third party suppliers, insurance companies and financial institutions and typically can only be drawn upon in the event of AWI’s failure to pay its obligations to the beneficiary. The following table presents details related to our letters of credit facilities:

|  | June 30, 2025 |
Financing Arrangements |  | Limit |  |  | Used |  |  | Available |
Bi-lateral facility |  | $ | 25.0 |  |  | $ | 7.7 |  |  | $ | 17.3 |
Revolving credit facility |  |  | 150.0 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 150.0 |
Total |  | $ | 175.0 |  |  | $ | 7.7 |  |  | $ | 167.3 |

Other Commitments

In the ordinary course of business, and primarily due to our December 2024 acquisition of Zahner, we provide corporate guarantees and obtain surety bonds in support of underlying contractual commitments to our customers. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $32.1 million and $21.9 million, respectively, of outstanding surety bonds associated with custom manufacturing projects that were issued by reputable surety providers. In the event of our non-performance, we may be required to reimburse surety providers to cover qualifying financial loss up to the bond amounts. We believe the risk of financial loss associated with our outstanding guarantees and surety bonds is remote and as such, have recorded no liability associated with such commitments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 14. PENSIONS AND OTHER BENEFIT PROGRAMS

NOTE 15. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION

We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. The estimated fair values of our financial instruments and contingent consideration are as follows:

|  | June 30, 2025 |  |  | December 31, 2024 |
|  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Estimated Fair Value |  |  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Estimated Fair Value |
Liabilities, net: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Total long-term debt, including current portion |  | $ | (484.3 | ) |  | $ | (484.3 | ) |  | $ | (525.1 | ) |  | $ | (525.1 | )
Interest rate swap contracts |  |  | (4.0 | ) |  |  | (4.0 | ) |  |  | (1.5 | ) |  |  | (1.5 | )
Acquisition-related contingent consideration |  |  | (2.1 | ) |  |  | (2.1 | ) |  |  | (3.2 | ) |  |  | (3.2 | )

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value estimates of long-term debt are based on data for our Term Loan A debt provided by a major financial institution. The fair value estimates for interest rate swap contracts are estimated with the assistance of an independent, third-party valuation expert and verified by obtaining quotes from major financial institutions. We engaged an independent, third-party valuation specialist to determine the fair value estimate for acquisition-related contingent consideration payable based on performance, which were measured primarily through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities represented additional cash consideration payable related to our October 2023 acquisition of Insolcorp, LLC (“Insolcorp”) and July 2023 acquisition of BOK Modern, LLC (“BOK”) that will be paid upon the final achievement of certain financial and performance milestones. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities of $0.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively, related to the financial and performance milestones for the BOK acquisition and were classified as accounts payable and other accrued expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2025, acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities of $1.2 million related to the future financial and performance milestones for the Insolcorp acquisition was classified as long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024, acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities of $1.7 million related to financial and performance milestones for the BOK and Insolcorp acquisitions and were classified as long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; or

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is summarized below:

|  | June 30, 2025 |  |  | December 31, 2024 |
|  | Fair value based on |  |  | Fair value based on |
|  | Other observable inputs |  |  | Other unobservable inputs |  |  | Other observable inputs |  |  | Other unobservable inputs |
|  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |
Liabilities, net: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Interest rate swap contracts |  | $ | (4.0 | ) |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | (1.5 | ) |  | $ | - |
Acquisition-related contingent consideration |  |  | - |  |  |  | (2.1 | ) |  |  | - |  |  |  | (1.7 | )

Acquisition-related contingent considerati on of $2.1 million and $1.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, was measured with the use of significant unobservable inputs, which included financial proj ections over respective earn-out periods, the volatility of the underlying financial metrics and estimated discount rates. Excluded from the above table were $1.5 million of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities outstanding as of December 31, 2024 related to the final achievement of certain financial and performance milestones through December 31, 2024 for the BOK acquisition.

The following table summarizes the weighted average of the significant unobservable inputs as o f June 30, 2025:

|  | BOK |  |  | Insolcorp |
Unobservable input |  |  |  |  |  |
Volatility |  |  | 27.5 | % |  |  | 25.0 | %
Discount rates |  |  | 4.0 | % |  |  | 3.8 | %

The changes in fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Fair value of contingent consideration as of beginning of period |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 1.3 |  |  | $ | 3.2 |  |  | $ | 1.6 |
Cash consideration paid |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | (1.5 | ) |  |  | - |
Loss related to change in fair value of contingent consideration |  |  | 0.1 |  |  |  | 0.7 |  |  |  | 0.4 |  |  |  | 0.4 |
Fair value of contingent consideration as of end of period |  | $ | 2.1 |  |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 2.1 |  |  | $ | 2.0 |

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we paid $1.5 million of additional cash consideration, which represented the achievement of certain financial and performance milestones through December 31, 2024 for the BOK acquisition. The additional cash consideration paid was classified as cash flows from financing activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, up to the acquisition date fair value. The portion of additional cash consideration paid in excess of the acquisition date fair value was classified as cash flows from operating activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. There was no additional cash consideration paid during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, changes in fair value were primarily due to changes in financial projections over each entity’s earn-out periods and due to changes in valuation inputs. All changes in acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities subsequent to the initial acquisition-date measurements were recorded as a component of SG&A expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income.

NOTE 16. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices that could impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. We use interest rate derivatives to manage our exposure to interest rates. At inception, interest rate swap derivatives that we designate as hedging instruments are formally documented as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or cash flow hedge. We also formally assess, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, or if the anticipated transaction is no longer probable of occurring, we discontinue hedge accounting, and any future mark-to-market adjustments are recognized in earnings. We use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for speculative trading purposes.

Counterparty Risk

We enter into derivative transactions only with established financial institution counterparties having an investment-grade credit rating. We monitor counterparty credit ratings on a regular basis. All of our derivative transactions with counterparties are governed by master International Swap and Derivatives Association agreements (“ISDAs”) with netting arrangements. These agreements can limit our exposure in situations where we have gain and loss positions outstanding with a single counterparty. We do not post nor do we receive cash collateral with any counterparty for our derivative transactions. These ISDAs do not have any credit contingent features; however, a default under our bank credit facility would trigger a default under these agreements. Exposure to individual counterparties is controlled and we consider the risk of counterparty default to be negligible.

Interest Rate Risk

We utilize interest rate swaps to minimize the fluctuations in earnings caused by interest rate volatility. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges against changes in Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for a portion of our variable rate debt. The following table summarizes our interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2025:

Coverage Period |  | Notional Amount |  | Risk Coverage |  | Trade Date
November 2023 to December 2025 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | October 23, 2023
March 2025 to March 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2025
March 2024 to June 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 25, 2024
March 2025 to September 2026 |  | $ | 25.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2025
November 2023 to December 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | October 10, 2023
March 2024 to June 2027 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2024
November 2023 to November 2027 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | September 29, 2023
June 2024 to June 2028 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | June 26, 2024

Under the terms of the interest rate swaps above, we pay a fixed rate monthly and receive a floating rate based on the SOFR.

As of June 30, 2025, the amount of existing net losses in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCL”) expected to be recognized in net earnings over the next twelve months was $1.4 million.

NOTE 17. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock Repurchase Plan

On July 29, 2016, our Board of Directors approved our share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock (the “Program”). Since inception of the Program, we have been authorized to repurchase up to an aggregate of $1,700.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock through December 31, 2026. We had $609.8 million remaining under the Board’s repurchase authorization as of June 30, 2025.

Repurchases of our common stock under the Program may be made through open market, block and privately negotiated transactions, including Rule 10b5-1 plans, at such times and in such amounts as management deems appropriate, subject to market and business conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. The Program does not obligate AWI to repurchase any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.

NOTE 18. LITIGATION AND RELATED MATTERS

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Environmental Compliance

Our manufacturing and research facilities are affected by various federal, state and local requirements relating to the discharge of materials and the protection of the environment. We make expenditures necessary for compliance with applicable environmental requirements at each of our operating facilities. While these expenditures are not typically material, the applicable regulatory requirements continually change and, as a result, we cannot predict with certainty the amount, nature or timing of future expenditures associated with environmental compliance.

Environmental Sites

Summary

We are actively involved in the investigation and remediation of existing or potential environmental contamination under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and state Superfund and similar environmental laws at two domestically owned locations allegedly resulting from past industrial activity.

In each location, we are one of multiple potentially responsible parties and have agreed to jointly fund the required investigation and remediation, while preserving our defenses to the liability. We may also have rights of contribution or reimbursement from other parties or coverage under applicable insurance policies. We have pursued coverage and recoveries under those applicable insurance policies with respect to certain of the sites, including the Macon, Georgia site and the Elizabeth City, North Carolina site, each of

21

Armstrong World Industries, Inc., and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(dollar amounts in millions, except per share data)

which is summarized below. Other than disclosed below, we are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or the timing of any future recoveries, whether through settlement or otherwise. We are also unable to predict the extent to which any recoveries might cover our final share of investigation and remediation costs for these sites. Our final share of investigation and remediation costs may exceed any such recoveries, and such amounts net of insurance recoveries may be material.

Between 2017 and 2021, we entered into settlement agreements totaling $53.0 million with certain legacy insurance carriers to resolve ongoing litigation and recover fees and costs previously incurred by us in connection with certain environmental sites. These settlements were recorded as reductions to cost of goods sold and SG&A expenses, reflecting the same income statement categories where environmental expenditures were historically recorded. From 2020 through the third quarter of 2024, cumulative insurance recoveries exceeded cumulative expenses to date related to the respective environmental sites and the excess was recorded within long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These excess recoveries were released to offset additional reserves for potential liabilities incurred on the respective environmental sites. We may enter into additional settlement agreements in the future, which may or may not be material, with other legacy insurers to obtain reimbursement or contribution for environmental site expenses.

Estimates of our future liability at the environmental sites are based on evaluations of currently available facts regarding each individual site. We consider factors such as our activities associated with the site, existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations and prior company experience in remediating contaminated sites. Although current law imposes joint and several liability on all parties at Superfund sites, our contribution to the remediation of these sites is expected to be limited by the number of other companies potentially liable for site remediation. As a result, our estimated liability reflects only our expected share. In determining the probability of contribution, we consider the solvency of other parties, the site activities of other parties, whether liability is being disputed, the terms of any existing agreements and experience with similar matters, and the effect of our October 2006 Chapter 11 reorganization and separation with Armstrong Flooring, Inc. upon the validity of the claim, if any.

Specific Material Events

Macon, Georgia

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has listed two landfills located on a portion of our facility in Macon, Georgia, along with the former Macon Naval Ordnance Plant landfill adjacent to our property, portions of Rocky Creek, and certain tributaries leading to Rocky Creek (collectively, the “Macon Site”) as a Superfund site on the National Priorities List due to the presence of contaminants, most notably polychlorinated biphenyls (“PCBs”).

In September 2010, we entered into an Administrative Order on Consent for a Removal Action (the “Removal Action”) with the EPA to investigate PCB contamination in one of the landfills on our property, the Wastewater Treatment Plant Landfill (“Operable Unit 1”). After completing an investigation of Operable Unit 1 and submitting our final Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis, the EPA issued an Action Memorandum in July 2013 selecting our recommended remedy for the Removal Action. The Operable Unit 1 response action is complete and the final report was submitted to the EPA in October 2016. The EPA approved the final report in November 2016, and a Post-Removal Control Plan was submitted to the EPA in March 2017. AWI has been conducting operation and maintenance activities of the completed remedy since 2017 consistent with the approved Post-Removal Control Plan.

In September 2015, AWI and other Potential Responsible Parties (“PRPs”) received a Special Notice Letter from the EPA under CERCLA inviting AWI and the PRPs to enter into the negotiation of a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) with respect to the remainder of the Superfund site, which included the other landfill on our property, as well as areas on and adjacent to our property and Rocky Creek (“Operable Unit 2”). We and the other PRPs entered into a settlement agreement with the EPA effective September 2018, in response to the Special Notice Letter to conduct the RI/FS. The PRPs submitted an RI/FS work plan, which was approved by the EPA in September 2019. Investigative work on this portion of the site commenced in December 2019.

In June 2021, the PRPs submitted a Site Characterization Summary Report (“SCSR”) for Operable Unit 2 to the EPA. The purpose of the SCSR was to demonstrate that the available data for Operable Unit 2 was adequate for the risk assessment and for the development of remedial action objectives. In the second half of 2022, the EPA and the PRPs agreed to separate all non-groundwater aspects of the site; the groundwater investigation is ongoing. In August 2022, the PRPs submitted a Human Health Baseline Risk Assessment to the EPA, and in December 2022, the PRPs submitted a final Baseline Ecological Risk Assessment for all non-groundwater aspects of Operable Unit 2 to the EPA. Both risk assessments served as exhibits to the Remedial Investigation Report (“RIR”), which the EPA approved in July 2023.

Based on findings in the RIR, the PRPs developed and submitted to the EPA a draft Feasibility Study (“FS”) to identify and evaluate potential remedial alternatives for all non-groundwater elements of Operable Unit 2. Following review and comment by the EPA and the State of Georgia and revisions to the FS to address those comments, the EPA conditionally approved the FS in April 2024 and issued a Proposed Remedial Action Plan (“Proposed Plan”) for the non-groundwater elements at the site in May 2024, which included a total cost estimate for the non-groundwater elements at the site of approximately $8 million. In August 2024, the EPA signed the Record of Decision, selecting the remedy outlined in the Proposed Plan. The portion of these remediation costs that AWI will bear for all non-groundwater elements of Operable Unit 2 will not be known until the PRPs resolve the final allocation of costs.

22

Armstrong World Industries, Inc., and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(dollar amounts in millions, except per share data)

In March 2025, AWI and the other PRPs requested to the EPA that the groundwater investigation for Operable Unit 3 (the groundwater elements of Operable Unit 2), be completed in conjunction with the groundwater investigation at the adjacent former Macon Naval Ordnance Plant landfill, however, the EPA rejected this request and required two separate remedial investigation reports.

It is probable that we will incur field investigation, engineering and oversight costs associated with designing and implementing the remedy for all non-groundwater elements of Operable Unit 2 and for completing an RI/FS of Operable Unit 3. We may also ultimately incur costs in remediating contamination discovered during the RI/FS for Operable Unit 3 and we are unable to reasonably estimate our final share of the total costs associated with the investigation work or any resulting remediation therefrom, although such amounts may be material to any one quarter’s or year’s results of operations in the future. We do not expect the total future costs to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity or financial condition as the cash payments may be made over many years.

Elizabeth City, North Carolina

This site is a former cabinet manufacturing facility that from 1977 until 1996 was operated by Triangle Pacific Corporation, which became Armstrong Wood Products, Inc. (“AWP”), and is now known as AHF Products, LLC. The site was formerly owned by the U.S. Navy (“Navy”) and Westinghouse, which was purchased by Paramount Global (“Paramount”) (then known as CBS Corporation). We assumed ownership of the site when we acquired the stock of AWP in 1998. Prior to our acquisition, the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources listed the site as a hazardous waste site. In 1997, AWP entered into a cost sharing agreement with Westinghouse whereby the parties agreed to share equally in costs associated with investigation and potential remediation. In 2000, AWP and Paramount entered into an Administrative Order on Consent to conduct an RI/FS with the EPA for the site. In 2007, we and Paramount entered into an agreement with the Navy whereby the Navy agreed to pay one third of defined past and future investigative costs up to a certain amount, which has now been exhausted. The EPA approved an RI/FS work plan for the site in August 2011. In January 2014, we submitted draft RI and Risk Assessment reports and conducted supplemental investigative work based upon agency comments to those reports. In connection with the separation of Armstrong Flooring, Inc. in 2016, we agreed to retain any legacy environmental liabilities associated with the AWP site. The EPA published an Interim Action Proposed Plan for the site in April 2018 seeking public comment until June 2018. The EPA evaluated comments, including ours, and has published its Interim Record Of Decision (“IROD”) selecting an interim cleanup approach. In September 2018, AWI and Paramount received a Special Notice Letter from the EPA under CERCLA inviting AWI and Paramount to enter into the negotiation of a settlement agreement to conduct or finance the response action at the site. In response to the September 2018 Special Notice Letter, we and Paramount submitted a good faith offer to the EPA in May 2019. In June 2021, we entered into a negotiated Partial Consent Decree and Site Participation Agreement with the EPA, Paramount and the U.S. on behalf of the Navy for the remedial design and remedial action for the interim remedy. Because the U.S. does not conduct work as a PRP at Superfund sites, similar to the 2007 agreement, the U.S. agreed to pay its share of the estimated costs of performing the work. The Partial Consent Decree was entered by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina in January 2022. A Remedial Design Work Plan (“RDWP”) for the site was submitted to the EPA in June 2022, and AWI and Paramount responded in November 2022 to comments received from the EPA in September 2022. The EPA approved the revised RDWP in February 2023 and in June 2023, the parties submitted a Pre-Design Investigation Work Plan. Following review and comment by the EPA and revisions to the Pre-Design Investigation Work Plan to address the EPA comments, the EPA approved the Pre-Design Investigation Work Plan and related Quality Assurance Project Plan in December 2024, allowing the Pre-Design investigation work to start in March 2025. The current estimate of future liability at this site includes only our estimated share of the costs of implementing the interim remedial action under the IROD. We are unable to reasonably estimate our final share of the total costs associated with the interim or final remediation at the site, although such amounts may be material to any one quarter's or one year’s results of operations in the future. We do not expect the total future costs to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity or financial condition as the cash payments may be made over many years.

Summary of Financial Position

Total liabilities of $4.1 million and $4.6 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, were recorded for environmental matters that we consider probable and for which a reasonable estimate of the probable liability could be made. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $4.1 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of environmental liabilities were reflected within other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024, $0.4 million of environmental liabilities was reflected within accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we did no t record any additional reserves for potential environmental liabilities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded $4.0 million of additional reserves for potential environmental liabilities, of which $2.5 million was offset through a release of our remaining environmental insurance recoveries in excess of cumulative expenses and $1.5 million was recorded as a component of SG&A expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. Where existing data is sufficient to estimate the liability, that estimate has been used; where only a range of probable liabilities is available and no amount within that range is more likely than any other, the lower end of the range has been

23

Armstrong World Industries, Inc., and Subsidiaries

(dollar amounts in millions, except per share data)

used. As assessments and remediation activities progress at each site, these liabilities are reviewed to reflect new information as it becomes available and adjusted to reflect amounts actually incurred and paid. These liabilities are undiscounted.

The estimated environmental liabilities above do not take into account any claims for additional recoveries from insurance or third parties. It is our policy to record insurance recoveries as assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when realizable. We incur costs to pursue environmental insurance recoveries, which are expensed as incurred.

Actual costs to be incurred at identified sites may vary from our estimates. Based on our knowledge of the identified sites, it is not possible to reasonably estimate future costs in excess of amounts already recognized.

OTHER CLAIMS

From time to time, we are involved in other various lawsuits, claims, investigations and other legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of business, including matters involving our products, intellectual property, relationships with suppliers, relationships with distributors, other customers or end users, relationships with competitors, employees and other matters. In connection with those matters, we may have rights of indemnity, contribution or reimbursement from other parties or coverage under applicable insurance policies. When applicable and appropriate, we will seek indemnity, contribution or reimbursement from other parties and pursue coverage and recoveries under those policies, but we are unable to predict the outcome of those demands. While complete assurance cannot be given to the outcome of any proceedings relating to these matters, we do not believe that any current claims, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

NOTE 19. NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net earnings attributable to common shares used in our basic and diluted net Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, were equal to net earnings on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. EPS components may not add due to rounding.

The following table is a reconciliation of basic shares outstanding to diluted shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (shares in millions):

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Basic shares outstanding |  |  | 43.4 |  |  |  | 43.8 |  |  |  | 43.4 |  |  |  | 43.8 |
Dilutive effect of common stock equivalents |  |  | 0.3 |  |  |  | 0.2 |  |  |  | 0.3 |  |  |  | 0.2 |
Diluted shares outstanding |  |  | 43.7 |  |  |  | 44.0 |  |  |  | 43.7 |  |  |  | 44.0 |

Anti-dilutive stock awards excluded from the computation of dilutive EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were 27,860 and 29,028, respectively. There were no anti-dilutive stock awards excluded from the computation of dilutive EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Anti-dilutive stock awards excluded from the computation of dilutive EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were 17,426.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS O F FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, the accompanying notes, the cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements and risk factors included in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

OVERVIEW

AWI is an Americas leader in the design, innovation and manufacture of interior and exterior architectural applications including ceilings, specialty walls and exterior metal solutions. We manufacture and source products made of numerous materials, including mineral fiber, fiberglass, metal, felt, wood, resin and glass, wood fiber and glass-reinforced-gypsum. We also manufacture ceiling suspension system (grid) products through a joint venture with Worthington Enterprises, Inc. called Worthington Armstrong Venture (“WAVE”).

Acquisitions and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

In December 2024, we acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of A. Zahner Company (“Zahner”), based in Kansas City, Missouri. Zahner is a designer and manufacturer of exterior metal architectural solutions. The operations, assets and liabilities of Zahner are included in our Architectural Specialties segment.

In April 2024, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in 3form, LLC (“3form”) based in Salt Lake City, Utah, from Hunter Douglas, Inc. 3form is a designer and manufacturer of architectural resin and glass products used for specialty walls, partitions and ceilings. The operations, assets and liabilities of 3form are included in our Architectural Specialties segment.

In January 2024, we entered into a strategic partnership and equity investment in Overcast Innovations LLC (“Overcast”) with McKinstry Essention, LLC whereby we acquired a 19.5% ownership interest in Overcast, with future rights to increase our ownership interest. Overcast is a solutions company offering prefabricated ceiling cloud systems, modular grid platforms and engineering design services to reduce waste and inefficiencies in the built environment. Our investment and equity earnings and losses in Overcast are included in our Unallocated Corporate segment.

Manufacturing Plants

As of June 30, 2025, we operated 20 manufacturing plants, including 18 plants located within the U.S. and two plants in Canada.

WAVE operates seven additional plants in the U.S. to produce suspension system (grid) products, which we use and sell in our ceiling systems.

Reportable Segments

Our operating segments are as follows: Mineral Fiber, Architectural Specialties and Unallocated Corporate.

Mineral Fiber – produces suspended mineral fiber and fiberglass ceiling systems. Our mineral fiber products offer various performance attributes such as acoustical control, rated fire protection, and energy efficiency, along with other health and sustainability features and aesthetic appeal. Ceiling products are primarily sold to resale distributors, ceiling systems contractors and wholesalers, and retailers (including large home centers). The Mineral Fiber segment also includes the results of WAVE, which manufactures and sells suspension system (grid) products and ceiling component products that are invoiced by both AWI and WAVE. Segment results relating to WAVE consist primarily of equity earnings and reflect our 50% equity interest in the joint venture. Ceiling component products consist of ceiling perimeters and trim, in addition to grid products that support drywall ceiling systems. For some customers, WAVE sells its suspension system products to AWI for resale to customers. Mineral Fiber segment results reflect those sales transactions. The Mineral Fiber segment also includes all assets and liabilities not specifically allocated to our Architectural Specialties or Unallocated Corporate segment, including all property and related depreciation associated with our Lancaster, Pennsylvania headquarters. Operating results for the Mineral Fiber segment include a significant majority of allocated Corporate administrative expenses that represent a reasonable allocation of general services to support its operations.

Architectural Specialties – designs, produces and sources specialty ceilings, walls, and other interior and exterior architectural applications including ceilings, specialty walls and exterior metal solutions primarily for use in commercial settings. Products are available in numerous materials, such as metal, felt, wood, resin and glass, wood fiber and glass-reinforced-gypsum in various colors, shapes and designs. These products offer a range of design options and performance attributes such as acoustical control, rated fire protection, light, aesthetic appeal, energy conservation and building performance. We sell standard, premium and customized products, a portion of which are sourced from third-party producers. Architectural Specialties products are sold primarily to resale distributors and direct customers, primarily ceiling systems contractors. This segment’s revenues are primarily project driven, which

25

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

can lead to more variability in sales patterns. Operating results for the Architectural Specialties segment include a portion of allocated Corporate administrative expenses that represent a reasonable allocation of general services to support its operations.

Unallocated Corporate – includes certain assets, liabilities, income and expenses that have not been allocated to our other business segments and consists of: cash and cash equivalents, our Overcast investment and related equity earnings/losses, the net funded status of our U.S. Retirement Income Plan (“RIP”), the estimated fair value of interest rate swap contracts, outstanding borrowings under our senior secured credit facility and income tax balances.

Factors Affecting Revenues

For information on our 2025 and 2024 net sales and disaggregated expenses by segment, see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. For information on our segments’ 2025 and 2024 net sales disaggregated by major customer groups, see Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Markets. We compete in the building product markets of the Americas. We closely monitor publicly available macroeconomic data and trends that provide insight into commercial construction market activity, including, but not limited to, gross domestic product, office vacancy rates, the Architecture Billings Index, new commercial construction starts, state and local government spending, corporate profits, and retail sales. The Company continues to monitor the impacts of recently implemented and announced tariffs and geopolitical events, including but not limited to, conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, neither of which had a material direct impact on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations in the first six months of 2025 or 2024.

Several factors and trends within our markets affected our business performance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024, most notably an increase in net sales due to our December 2024 acquisition of Zahner and April 2024 acquisition of 3form. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, sales volumes increased $46 million compared to the same period in 2024, with the Zahner and 3form acquisitions contributing $28 million to net sales. Also contributing to the increase in net sales was a $15 million increase in organic Architectural Specialties net sales and a $3 million increase in net sales due to higher sales volumes in our Mineral Fiber segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, sales volumes increased $87 million compared to the same period in 2024 driven primarily by a $69 million increase in net sales from the Zahner and 3form acquisitions. Also contributing to the increase in net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was a $24 million increase in organic Architectural Specialties sales, partially offset by a $7 million decrease in net sales due to lower sales volumes in our Mineral Fiber segment.

Average Unit Value. We periodically modify sales prices of our products due to changes in costs for raw materials and energy, market conditions and the competitive environment. Typically, realized price increases are less than announced price increases because of project pricing, competitive adjustments and changing market conditions. We also offer a wide assortment of products that are differentiated by style, design and performance attributes. Pricing and margins for products within the assortment vary. In addition, changes in the relative quantity of products purchased at different price points can impact year-to-year comparisons of net sales and operating income. Within our Mineral Fiber segment, we focus on improving sales dollars per unit sold, or average unit value (“AUV”), as a measure that accounts for the varying assortment of products and like-for-like pricing impacting our revenues.

Favorable AUV increased our total consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 by approximately $14 million and $29 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024. Our Architectural Specialties segment revenues are primarily generated by individual contracts that include a mix of products, both manufactured by us and sourced from third parties, which varies by project. As such, we do not track AUV performance for this segment but rather attribute all changes in net sales to volume, including gross to net sales adjustments.

During the first quarter of 2025, we implemented price increases on Mineral Fiber ceiling products and WAVE implemented price increases on grid products. In the second quarter of 2025, we announced price increases on Mineral Fiber products that will become effective in the third quarter of 2025. Future pricing actions for Mineral Fiber, Architectural Specialties and WAVE products may be implemented based on numerous factors, including the impact of recently implemented or announced tariffs and the rate and pace of inflation and its impact on our business.

Seasonality. Historically, our sales tend to be stronger in the second and third quarters of our fiscal year due to more favorable weather conditions, customer business cycles and the timing of renovation and new construction projects.

Factors Affecting Operating Costs

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses are comprised of direct production costs (principally raw materials, labor, and energy), manufacturing overhead costs, freight, costs to purchase sourced products, tariffs and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses.

26

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our largest raw material expenditures are primarily for fiberglass, perlite, recycled paper, and starch. Other raw materials include clays, felt, pigment, resin and glass, wood and wood fiber. We manufacture substantially all of our mineral wool at one of our manufacturing facilities. We use aluminum and steel in the production of metal building products by us and by WAVE. Finally, natural gas and packaging materials also represent significant input costs. Fluctuations in the prices of these inputs impact our financial results. In the second quarter and first half of 2025, higher energy and raw material costs negatively impacted operating income by $1 million and $2 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024.

Acquisition-Related Expenses and Losses

In connection with our acquisitions of 3form in April 2024, Insolcorp, LLC (“Insolcorp”) in October 2023 and BOK Modern, LLC (“BOK”) in July 2023, we recorded certain acquisition-related expenses and losses to operating income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, summarized as follows (dollar amounts in millions):

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |  |  | Affected Line Item in the Condensed
|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |  |  | Consolidated Statements of Earnings and
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | Comprehensive Income
Inventory |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | Cost of goods sold
Acquisition costs |  |  | - |  |  |  | 1.0 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 1.0 |  |  | SG&A expenses
Loss related to change in fair value of contingent consideration |  |  | 0.1 |  |  |  | 0.7 |  |  |  | 0.4 |  |  |  | 0.4 |  |  | SG&A expenses
Net negative impact to operating income |  | $ | 0.1 |  |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 0.4 |  |  | $ | 1.7 |  |  |

The inventory amounts above reflect the post-acquisition expenses associated with recording inventory at fair value as part of purchase accounting for the 3form acquisition. Acquisition costs above reflect certain contingent third-party professional fees incurred due to the 3form acquisition. The change in fair value of contingent consideration was related to our BOK and Insolcorp acquisitions and is remeasured quarterly during each acquisition's earn-out periods. See Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. Depreciation of fixed assets acquired and amortization of intangible assets acquired have been excluded from the table above.

Employees

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had approximately 3,700 and 3,600 full-time and part-time employees, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of operating income to consolidated net earnings before income taxes.

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2025 increased 16.3% from the prior-year period due to higher volumes of $46 million and favorable AUV of $14 million. Architectural Specialties net sales increased $43 million and Mineral Fiber net sales increased $17 million from the prior-year period. Architectural Specialties segment net sales improved primarily due to a $28 million contribution from the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form and increased organic net sales driven by strengthening broad-based penetration throughout our specialty product categories. The increase in Mineral Fiber net sales was primarily driven by favorable AUV and modestly improved sales volumes.

27

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2025 increased 16.8% over the prior-year period due to higher volumes of $87 million and favorable AUV of $29 million. Architectural Specialties net sales increased $94 million and Mineral Fiber net sales increased $22 million over the prior-year period. Architectural Specialties segment net sales improved primarily due to a $69 million contribution from the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form and increased organic net sales driven by strengthening broad-based penetration throughout our specialty product categories. The increase in Mineral Fiber net sales was driven by favorable AUV, partially offset by lower sales volumes.

Cost of goods sold in the second quarter of 2025 was 58.6% of net sales, compared to 59.1% for the same period in 2024. Cost of goods sold in the first six months of 2025 was 59.7% of net sales, compared to 60.4% for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year decreases in cost of goods sold as a percent of net sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2025 were primarily driven by favorable AUV benefits and improved manufacturing productivity. Also contributing to the decrease in cost of goods sold as a percent of net sales for the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 were favorable inventory valuation impacts.

SG&A expenses in the second quarter of 2025 were $84.5 million, or 19.9% of net sales, compared to $80.6 million, or 22.1% of net sales, for the same period in 2024. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by a $7 million increase related to the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form, partially offset by a $2 million decrease in acquisition-related expenses and a prior-period increase in reserves for environmental remediation matters of $1 million that did not recur in the current period.

SG&A expenses in the first six months of 2025 were $162.5 million, or 20.1% of net sales, compared to $146.0 million, or 21.1% of net sales, for the same period in 2024. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by a $21 million increase related to the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form and a $2 million increase in selling expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $3 million increase in company-owned officer life insurance gains related to deferred compensation plans, a $1 million decrease in acquisition-related expenses and a prior-period increase in reserves for environmental remediation matters of $1 million that did not recur in the current period.

Equity earnings from unconsolidated subsidiaries were $31.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $26.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, and were $58.5 million in the first six months of 2025, compared to $53.5 million in the same period in 2024. WAVE equity earnings were $32.1 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $26.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, and $58.9 million in the first six months of 2025, compared to $53.9 million in the same period of 2024. The year-over-year increase in WAVE equity earnings for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by the benefit from favorable AUV, higher sales volumes and lower steel costs. The increase in WAVE equity earnings for the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was driven by the benefit from favorable AUV, partially offset by the negative impact of lower sales volumes. See Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Interest expense was $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $11.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. Interest expense was $17.1 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $20.1 million in the first six months of 2024. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower average debt balances.

Other non-operating income, net, was $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2024, and $1.4 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $6.3 million in the first six months of 2024. The decreases in other non-operating income, net, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 in comparison to the same periods in 2024 were primarily driven by the non-service cost components of pension and postretirement net periodic benefit costs.

Income tax expense was $27.5 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $21.2 million in the second quarter of 2024. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2025 was 23.9% compared to 24.3% for the same period of 2024. Income tax expense was $49.1 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to $41.5 million in the first six months of 2024. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2025 was 23.8% compared to 24.8% for the same period of 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2025, in comparison to the same periods in 2024, was primarily due to the benefit of federal investment tax credits.

Total Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) was $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to Total Other Comprehensive Loss (“OCL”) of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. OCI was $1.3 million in the first six months of 2025 compared to OCL of $1.8 million in the first six months of 2024. The changes from OCL to OCI in the second quarter and first six months of 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 were due to increases in income from foreign currency translation adjustments and favorable pension and postretirement adjustments, partially offset by interest rate swap derivative losses in 2025. Foreign currency translation adjustments represent the change in the U.S. dollar value of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign currency translation adjustments in 2025 and 2024 were driven primarily by changes in the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. Pension and postretirement adjustments represent the amortization of actuarial gains and losses related to our defined benefit pension and postretirement plans. Derivative losses represent the mark-to-market value fair adjustments for our derivative assets and liabilities, and the recognition of gains and losses previously deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss).

Mineral Fiber net sales increased $17 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year quarter due to $14 million of favorable AUV and $3 million of higher sales volumes, both of which were primarily driven by strong commercial execution and benefits from growth initiatives. The improvement in AUV was driven by both favorable like-for-like price and favorable mix.

For the first six months of 2025, net sales increased $22 million from the prior-year period, primarily due to $29 million of favorable AUV, partially offset by lower sales volumes of $7 million. The improvement in AUV was driven by both favorable like-for-like price and favorable mix.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Net sales increased $43 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, driven primarily by a $28 million increase from the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form, in addition to increased organic net sales driven by strengthening broad-based penetration throughout our specialty product categories.

For the first six months of 2025, net sales improved by $94 million from the prior-year period, primarily due to a $69 million increase from the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form, in addition to increased organic net sales driven by strengthening broad-based penetration throughout our specialty product categories.

Costs of goods sold during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $92 million, or 58.2% of net sales, compared to $68 million, or 59.2% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Gross profit increased $19 million, or 40.3%, compared to the prior-year period due to a $23 million benefit from higher net sales, partially offset by a $4 million increase in manufacturing costs. The acquisitions of Zahner and 3form contributed a $12 million benefit to gross profit, with the remaining increase driven by improved operating leverage and custom project margins.

Costs of goods sold during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $176 million, or 59.7% of net sales, compared to $124 million, or 61.5% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Gross profit increased $41 million, or 53.2%, compared to the prior-year period due to a $50 million benefit from higher net sales, partially offset by a $9 million increase in manufacturing costs. The acquisitions of Zahner and 3form contributed a $29 million benefit to gross profit, with the remaining increase driven by improved operating leverage and custom project margins.

SG&A expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $40 million, or 25.5% of net sales, compared to $33 million, or 28.5% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by a $7 million increase related to the acquisitions of Zahner and 3form.

Unallocated Corporate

Unallocated Corporate operating loss was $1 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024. Unallocated Corporate operating loss was $2 million in the first six months of 2025 and 2024.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Cash Flow

Operating activities for the first six months of 2025 provided $122.6 million, compared to $83.7 million for the first six months of 2024. The favorable change in cash from operating activities was primarily due to higher cash earnings compared to the prior-year period and an increase in income taxes payable, partially offset by unfavorable timing related changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $13.2 million in the first six months of 2025, compared to $81.4 million used for investing activities in the first six months of 2024. The favorable change in cash from investing activities in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to $94 million of cash paid for the 3form acquisition in 2024.

Net cash used for financing activities was $134.7 million in the first six months of 2025, compared to $1.1 million cash provided in the first six months of 2024. The unfavorable change in cash used for financing activities was primarily due to decreased net borrowings under our credit facility, primarily due to the prior year 3form acquisition, and an increase in repurchases of our outstanding common stock.

Liquidity

Our liquidity needs for operations vary throughout the year. We retain lines of credit to facilitate our seasonal cash flow needs, since cash flow is historically lower during the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year.

We have a $950.0 million variable rate senior credit facility, which is comprised of a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (with a $150.0 million sublimit for letters of credit) and a $450.0 million Term Loan A. As of June 30, 2025, the revolving credit facility and Term Loan A were priced at 1.375% over the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus a 10-basis point adjustment. The revolving credit facility and Term Loan A mature in December 2027. We also have a $25.0 million bi-lateral letter of credit facility.

As of June 30, 2025, the total principal balances outstanding under our senior credit facility were $416.2 million under Term Loan A and $70.0 million under the revolving credit facility.

30

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The senior credit facility includes two financial covenants that require the ratio of consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) to consolidated cash interest expense minus cash consolidated interest income to be greater than or equal to 3.0 to 1.0, and requires the ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness, minus AWI and domestic subsidiary unrestricted cash and cash equivalents up to $100 million, to EBITDA to be less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.0 (subject to certain exceptions for certain acquisitions). As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants of the senior credit facility.

The Term Loan A is currently priced on a variable interest rate basis. We use interest rate swaps to minimize the fluctuations in earnings caused by interest rate volatility associated with our senior credit facility. The following table summarizes our interest rate swaps (dollar amounts in millions):

Coverage Period |  | Notional Amount |  | Risk Coverage |  | Trade Date
November 2023 to December 2025 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | October 23, 2023
March 2025 to March 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2025
March 2024 to June 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 25, 2024
March 2025 to September 2026 |  | $ | 25.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2025
November 2023 to December 2026 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | October 10, 2023
March 2024 to June 2027 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | March 27, 2024
November 2023 to November 2027 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | September 29, 2023
June 2024 to June 2028 |  | $ | 50.0 |  | USD-SOFR |  | June 26, 2024

Under the terms of all interest rate swaps, we pay a fixed rate monthly and receive a floating rate based on SOFR. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges against changes in SOFR for a portion of our variable rate debt.

We utilize lines of credit and other commercial commitments to ensure that adequate funds are available to meet operating requirements. Letters of credit are currently arranged through our revolving credit facility and our bi-lateral facility. Letters of credit may be issued to third party suppliers, insurance companies and financial institutions and typically can only be drawn upon in the event of AWI’s failure to pay its obligations to the beneficiary. The following table presents details related to our letters of credit facilities (dollar amounts in millions):

|  | June 30, 2025 |
Financing Arrangements |  | Limit |  |  | Used |  |  | Available |
Bi-lateral facility |  | $ | 25.0 |  |  | $ | 7.7 |  |  | $ | 17.3 |
Revolving credit facility |  |  | 150.0 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 150.0 |
Total |  | $ | 175.0 |  |  | $ | 7.7 |  |  | $ | 167.3 |

As of June 30, 2025, we had $81.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, $66.9 million in the U.S. and $14.2 million in foreign jurisdictions, primarily Canada. As of June 30, 2025, we also had $430 million available under our revolving credit facility. We believe cash on hand and cash generated from operations, together with borrowing capacity under our credit facility, will be adequate to address our near-term liquidity needs based on current expectations of our business operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions and scheduled payments of debt obligations.
