AZZ Inc. Reports Fiscal Year 2027 Second Quarter Results

Tom Ferguson, President and Chief Executive Officer of AZZ

“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.”

Tom Ferguson, President and Chief Executive Officer of AZZ

“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.”
