Q1 2024 Highlights 12 • Net sales decline was primarily driven by y-o-y growth from customers serving the new construction market, offset by anticipated volume declines in the R&R market as well as a softening in net ASP, due to trade down activity and a return to normal targeted promotions. • Adjusted EBITDA margin1 expanded y-o-y due to cost savings from our strategic initiatives and continuous improvement efforts which more than offset the negative impact of trade downs. • Relatively strong Free Cash Flow1 compared to historical first quarter performance, especially in light of some of the larger cash uses. Financial Results 1Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP metrics. Please see the Appendix for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income, the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin, a reconciliation of Diluted EPS to Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow and definitions.

Near-Term Expectations Full Year 2024 Outlook1 • Continued effect of trade downs and a more normalized pricing environment, including customary promotions. • Assumes big ticket repair and remodel will lag smaller ticket items, resulting in a timing difference between our net sales and a broad R&R market recovery. • Ability to flex manufacturing, coupled with strategic initiatives and continuous improvement efforts will allow us to offset the impact of softer sales and further invest in the business. • Free cash flow in excess of adjusted net income for 2024 • Taking opportunity to further invest and position ourselves for future growth when a more robust demand environment returns.

MasterBrand: Investor Day 2022 05 Appendix
Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) in this presentation, certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules have been included. It is our intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance understanding of our financial information as prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our methods of determining these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methods used by other companies for these or similar non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. We use EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share (“adjusted diluted EPS”), free cash flow, which are all non- GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We evaluate the performance of our business based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBITDA as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is related to corporate functions, as opposed to operations. For that reason, we believe EBITDA is a useful metric to investors in evaluating our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by removing the impact of non-operational results and special items from EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted diluted EPS is a measure of our diluted earnings per share excluding non-operational results and special items. These non- GAAP measures are useful to investors as they are representative of our core operations and are used in the management of our business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is a useful measure to investors because it is a meaningful indicator of cash generated from operating activities available for the execution of our business strategy, and is used in the management of our business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. As required by SEC rules, see the following pages of this presentation for detailed reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We have not provided a reconciliation of our fiscal 2024 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted EPS guidance because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted EPS. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions. 16
