Tom Ferguson, President, and Chief Executive Officer of AZZ, commented, "Our record second-quarter sales of $486.9 million, up 16.7%, reflects not only strong execution but also the strength of our long-term strategy and the durability of our business model. Across our Metal Coatings and Precoat Metals segments, we continue to invest in strategic capabilities, operational excellence, and targeted growth initiatives that reinforce our competitive advantages and create sustainable value for our customers and shareholders. During the quarter, we benefited from organic sales growth, the continued ramp-up of our new Washington, Missouri facility within our Precoat Metals segment, and the completion of a strategic Metal Coatings acquisition in the Pacific Northwest. I am pleased with our record-setting performance during the first half of the year and we are on track to set new sales and profitability records for fiscal year 2027. We are increasing our annual financial guidance to reflect our quarterly performance, sustained sales momentum across both segments and increased confidence in our outlook for the remainder of fiscal year 2027."

"We continued to strengthen our balance sheet and return value to shareholders, reducing debt by $15 million, repurchasing $20.0 million of common stock, increasing our quarterly cash dividend by 20% to $0.24 per share and completing the strategic acquisition of Seattle Galvanizing. In the first half of fiscal year 2027, we generated $140 million in operating cash and will continue to focus on disciplined management of working capital, capital expenditures, and debt. We believe the combination of organic growth, strategic acquisitions, and operational excellence will further strengthen AZZ's market leadership and drive long-term value creation. Most importantly, none of this would be possible without the dedication of our employees. Their unwavering commitment to safety, service, and operational execution remains the foundation of our success, and I want to thank every AZZ associate for the pride and passion they bring to our organization each day." Ferguson concluded.

Segment Performance

Second Quarter 2027 Metal Coatings
Sales of $233.5 million increased by 22.9% compared to the second quarter of last year, primarily due to a higher volume of steel processed, driven by increases in the construction, industrial, infrastructure, and transportation end markets, and higher average selling prices in response to inflationary pressures. Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $71.6 million resulted in Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30.7%.

Second Quarter 2027 Precoat Metals
Sales of $253.4 million increased 11.5% compared with the second quarter of last year. The increase reflected higher coil-coating volume and average selling prices, including vendor price increases passed through to customers. Higher sales from the Washington, Missouri facility also contributed. These gains were partially offset by lower volume in HVAC and appliances, transportation, and other end markets. Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $53.8 million resulted in Adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.2%, an increase of 100 basis points from the prior year second quarter, primarily due to higher sales.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital Allocation

The Company generated operating cash of $140.0 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2027 through improved earnings from our Metal Coatings and Precoat Metals segments. At the end of the second quarter, the Company's net leverage improved to 1.3x trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDA. During the first six months of fiscal year 2027, the Company completed the acquisition of Seattle Galvanizing in the Metal Coatings segment for $57.5 million, repurchased $20.0 million of common stock, paid down debt of $15.0 million, and returned cash to common shareholders through cash dividend payments totaling $13.2 million. Capital expenditures for the first six months of fiscal year 2027 were $37.2 million, and full fiscal year capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $80 - $100 million.

Financial Outlook — Raising Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance

We are raising our fiscal year guidance for the year ending February 28, 2027, which reflects our confidence in the Company's strategic execution, operational resilience, and market positioning. Fiscal year 2027 guidance reflects our best estimates given expected market conditions for the full year, lower interest expense, an annualized effective tax rate of 25% and excludes M&A activity and any federal regulatory changes that may emerge.

AZZ Inc.
Non-GAAP Disclosure
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we provide Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share and Adjusted EBITDA (collectively, the "Adjusted Earnings Measures"), which are non-GAAP measures. Management believes that the presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency when comparing operating results across a broad spectrum of companies, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, prospects for future capital investment and debt reduction. Management also believes that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share and Adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance and that such measures may highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

In calculating adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, management excludes the following items from the reported GAAP measure: 1) intangible asset amortization, 2) restructuring charges, 3) acquisition costs, 4) additional stock compensation expense related to the adoption of our executive retiree long-term incentive program, 5) certain adjustments related to the Company's unconsolidated joint venture, and 6) the write-off of debt financing costs. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as adjusted net income excluding depreciation, amortization, interest and provision for income taxes. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors to analyze operating performance and evaluate the Company's ability to incur and service debt, as well as its capacity for making capital expenditures in the future.

Management provides non-GAAP financial measures for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of the Company's GAAP consolidated financial statements. Readers should consider these measures in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and undue reliance should not be placed on these non-GAAP financial measures. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

The following tables provide a reconciliation for the three and six months ended August 31, 2026 and August 31, 2025 from the non-GAAP Adjusted Earnings Measures to the most comparable measures, calculated in accordance with GAAP (in thousands, except per share data):
