For Immediate Release

Builders FirstSource Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Results; Provides 2024 Financial Outlook

February 22, 2024 (Irving, TX) – Builders FirstSource, Inc. (NYSE: BLDR) today reported its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

BFS Highlights

All Year-Over-Year Comparisons Unless Otherwise Noted:

•For the fourth quarter, net sales were $4.2 billion, a 4.7% decrease, primarily driven by a decline in core organic net sales of 1.3% and commodity deflation of 5.0%, partially offset by growth from acquisitions of 1.6%.

•For the fourth quarter, net income was $350.7 million, or $2.83 earnings per diluted share, compared to net income of $384.5 million, or $2.62 earnings per diluted share, in the same period a year ago. The 8.8% decrease in net income was primarily driven by lower net sales.

•For the fourth quarter, Adjusted EBITDA decreased 1.6% to $685.5 million, primarily driven by lower net sales. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 50 basis points from the prior year period to 16.5%, attributable to higher gross margin, partially offset by reduced operating leverage. The Adjusted EBITDA margin has remained in the mid-teens or better for 11 consecutive quarters.

•For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, cash provided by operating activities was $2.3 billion, and cash used in investing activities was $0.7 billion. The Company’s free cash flow was $1.9 billion.

•The Company repurchased $1.8 billion of shares in 2023, reducing its total shares outstanding by 12.2% in 2023.

“I'm proud of our fourth quarter and full year results, which demonstrated the strength of our broad product portfolio and continued execution by our resilient team members. Despite a challenging operating environment in 2023, which saw a significant reduction in single-family starts, we delivered a high-teens EBITDA margin. We accomplished this through operational rigor and by closely partnering with our customers to help address their pain points through use of our value-added solutions, solidifying our position as the easiest to do business with across the industry,” commented Dave Rush, CEO of Builders FirstSource.

Mr. Rush continued, “As we turn to 2024, we are excited about the opportunities in front of us. As we outlined at our recent Investor Day in December, we remain focused on our consistent strategy of growing our value-added products and services, investing in digital innovations, operating efficiently, and compounding long-term shareholder value.”

Peter Jackson, CFO of Builders FirstSource, added, “Our fourth quarter and full year results demonstrate the effectiveness of our operating model through the cycle. Our fortress balance sheet, strong cash flow

1

generation, and ability to prudently deploy capital to the highest return opportunities, including acquisitions and share repurchases, continues to position us for long-term success. We are leveraging our sustainable competitive advantages and strong financial position to drive future growth and value creation for our shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Performance Highlights

All Year-Over-Year Comparisons Unless Otherwise Noted:

Net Sales

•Net sales of $4.2 billion, a 4.7% decrease, primarily driven by a decline in core organic net sales of 1.3% and commodity deflation of 5.0%, partially offset by growth from acquisitions of 1.6%.

•Core organic net sales declined 1.3% driven by Single-Family decreasing 3.5%, while Multi-Family and Repair and Remodel (“R&R”)/Other increased 4.3% and 4.2%, respectively. On a weighted basis, the decline in Single-Family reduced sales by 2.5%, while the increases in Multi-Family and R&R/Other increased sales by 0.5% and 0.7%, respectively.

Gross Profit

•Gross profit was $1.5 billion, a decrease of 1.4% compared to the prior year period. The gross profit margin percentage increase of 120 basis points to 35.3% was primarily driven by productivity and Multi-Family strength, partially offset by core organic margin normalization.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

•SG&A was $974.4 million, an increase of $15.8 million, or 1.6%, primarily driven by variable compensation and additional expenses from operations acquired within the last twelve months, partially offset by a reduction in expense related to customer reserves. As a percentage of net sales, total SG&A increased by 150 basis points to 23.5%, primarily attributable to reduced operating leverage.

Interest Expense

•Interest expense increased $4.6 million to $46.8 million, primarily due to higher debt balances and interest rates.

Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share

2

Gross Profit

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

•SG&A was $3.8 billion, a decrease of $137.7 million, or 3.5%, primarily driven by lower variable compensation due to lower core organic net sales and a reduction in expense related to customer reserves, partially offset by additional expenses from operations acquired within the last twelve months. As a percentage of net sales, total SG&A increased by 490 basis points to 22.4%, primarily attributable to reduced operating leverage.

Interest Expense

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this news release and the schedules hereto that are not purely historical facts or that necessarily depend upon future events, including statements about forecasted financial performance or other statements about anticipations, beliefs, expectations, hopes, synergies, intentions or strategies for the future, may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. In addition, oral statements made by our directors, officers and employees to the investor and analyst communities, media representatives and others, depending upon their nature, may also constitute forward-looking statements. As with the forward-looking statements included in this release, these forward-looking statements are by nature inherently uncertain, and actual results or events may differ materially as a result of many factors. All forward-looking statements are based upon information, assumptions, expectations, and projections about future events available to Builders FirstSource on the date this release was submitted. Builders FirstSource undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control or may be currently unknown to the Company, that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements; such risks or uncertainties include those related to the Company’s growth strategies, including acquisitions, organic growth and digital strategies, or the dependence of the Company’s revenues and operating results on, among other things, the homebuilding industry and, to a lesser extent, repair and remodel activity, which in each case is dependent on economic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, consumer confidence, labor and supply shortages, and also lumber and other commodity prices. Builders FirstSource may not succeed in addressing these and other risks. Further information regarding factors that could affect our financial and other results can be found in the risk factors section of Builders FirstSource’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and may also be described from time to time in the other reports Builders FirstSource files with the SEC. Consequently, all forward-looking statements in this release are qualified by the factors, risks and uncertainties contained therein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial measures entitled Adjusted EBITDA, LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income, diluted Adjusted net income per share and Free cash flow are not financial measures recognized under GAAP and are therefore non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income before depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, net, income tax expense and other non-cash or special items including stock compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense, debt issuance and refinancing costs, severance and gain on sale of assets and other one-time costs. LTM Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve consecutive months. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted net income is defined as GAAP net income before non-cash or special items including acquisition and integration expense, technology implementation expense, debt issuance, and refinancing cost and amortization expense offset by the tax effect of those adjustments to net income. Adjusted net income per diluted share is defined as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Free cash flow is defined as GAAP net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Company management uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net income and diluted Adjusted net income per share as supplemental measures in its evaluation of the Company’s business, including for trend analysis, purposes of determining management incentive compensation and budgeting and planning purposes. Company management believes that these measures provide a meaningful measure of the Company’s performance and a better baseline for comparing financial performance across periods because these measures eliminate the effects of period to period changes, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, in taxes, costs associated with capital investments, interest expense, stock compensation expense, and other non-cash and non-recurring items and, in the case of Adjusted net income and Adjusted net income per diluted share, in certain non-recurring items. Company management also uses free cash flow as a supplemental measure in its evaluation of the Company’s business, including for purposes of its internal liquidity assessments. Company management believes that free cash flow provides a meaningful evaluation of the Company’s liquidity.

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results, cash flows and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other companies in the Company’s industry, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, the Company’s calculations of these financial measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Company management does not consider these financial measures in isolation or as alternatives to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below.

7

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA outlook, free cash flow and full-year forecast for its effective tax rate on operations exclude the impact of certain income and expense items that management believes are not part of underlying operations. These items may include, but are not limited to, loss on early extinguishment of debt, restructuring charges, certain tax items, and charges associated with non-recurring costs such as professional and legal fees associated with our acquisitions and enterprise resource planning (ERP) program. The Company’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these income and expense items will have on its reported net income, operating cash flow and its reported effective tax rate because these items, which could be significant, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. As a result, the Company does not provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure for its Adjusted EBITDA or free cash flow outlook or its effective tax rate on operations forecast. Please see the Forward-Looking Statements section of this release for a discussion of certain risks relevant to the Company’s outlook.

(NYSE: BLDR) announced that on February 21, 2024, its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, inclusive of the approximately $200 million remaining outstanding in the prior share repurchase plan authorized in April 2023.

“The Board’s increased share repurchase authorization reflects our strong conviction in the Company’s strategy, operating model, and ability to generate robust free cash flow,” said Paul S. Levy, Chairman of Builders FirstSource. “The Company’s industry-leading position in value-added solutions, digital innovation, and operating excellence will drive continued outperformance and compound value for our shareholders. Today’s announcement supports Builders FirstSource’s proven ability to effectively deploy capital and deliver high returns.”

•In 2023, the Company repurchased 17.8 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $100.49 per share for $1.8 billion, inclusive of fees and taxes. The Company reduced its total shares outstanding by 12.2% in 2023.

•Since the inception of its buyback program in August 2021 through December 31, 2023, the Company has repurchased 87.1 million shares of its common stock, or 42.2% of its total shares outstanding, at an average price of $70.27 per share for a total cost of $6.1 billion.

•As of December 31, 2023, shares outstanding were 121.9 million.
