“In the fourth quarter, demand softened across product categories in North America, partially offset by selling price increases,” said Keith Allman, Masco’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “International markets remained strong with sales growth of 7 percent in local currency. Lower volumes, foreign currency and higher operational costs pressured operating margins in the quarter.”
“For the full year 2022, we delivered 4 percent sales growth against a 17 percent comp in 2021, and 2 percent adjusted earnings per share growth,” continued Allman. “In 2022, despite higher operational costs and softening demand, we delivered earnings growth for our shareholders and executed our capital deployment strategy by returning approximately $1.2 billion to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends.”
“In 2023, we believe the near-term demand environment will remain challenging,” said Allman. “We are preparing for volumes overall to be down in the low double-digit range and anticipate adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $3.10 to $3.40 per share. Despite the expected near-term market softness, we believe the long-term fundamentals of our repair and remodel markets remain strong. We are focused on capitalizing on these positive long-term demand trends by improving our margins and continuing to invest in growth opportunities. With our industry leading repair and remodel-oriented products in diverse channels, strong balance sheet, and disciplined capital allocation, we believe Masco is well positioned to deliver long-term shareholder value creation.”
Dividend Declaration
Masco’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.285 per share, a 2 percent increase, payable on March 13, 2023 to shareholders of record on February 23, 2023.
“The Board’s decision to once again increase Masco’s quarterly cash dividend is consistent with our capital allocation strategy of targeting a dividend payout ratio of approximately 30 percent with annual increases through a cycle,” said Allman. “This increase underscores the strength of our company’s financial position, our ability to generate consistent, strong free cash flow, and the Board’s confidence in Masco’s future.”
