Worthington Enterprises reported results for fiscal Q1 2027, ended August 31, 2026, with net earnings of $42.6 million. GAAP diluted EPS was $0.87, while adjusted diluted EPS reached $0.82.

Net sales increased 13.2% to $343.9 million from $303.7 million a year earlier. Recent acquisitions contributed $19.2 million of the increase, while organic growth excluding acquisitions was 6.9%.

Adjusted EBITDA rose 10% to $74.0 million, operating cash flow increased to $66.7 million and free cash flow reached $54.0 million from $27.9 million a year earlier. These figures matter to investors because converting earnings into cash expands the company's capacity to fund investment, repurchases and dividends without equivalent reliance on new financing.

Building Performance Solutions generated $215.1 million in sales, up 16.4%, although adjusted EBITDA was roughly flat at $59.8 million as lower volume and unfavorable product mix offset other gains. Trade & Specialty Solutions sales rose 8.3% to $128.8 million, while adjusted EBITDA increased to $24.0 million on higher sales and a $4.0 million net benefit from tariff refunds.

The company plans to discuss the results on a conference call on September 23, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. It also scheduled an investor and analyst day for November 10, 2026, when management plans to review strategy, financial performance and long-term growth opportunities.
