The AZEK Company Announces Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Fiscal 2023 Results

Strong Fourth Quarter Financial Performance Driven by Residential Sales and Margin Execution; Significantly Improved Quarterly Net Profit Margin and Delivered Record Adjusted EBITDA Margin; Record Full-Year Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow

FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

RECENT COMPANY HIGHLIGHTS

Chicago, Ill. (BUSINESS WIRE) – The AZEK Company Inc. (NYSE: AZEK) (“AZEK” or the “Company”), the industry-leading manufacturer of beautiful, low-maintenance and environmentally sustainable outdoor living products, including TimberTech® decking and railing, Versatex® and AZEK® Trim and StruXure™ pergolas, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter ended September 30, 2023.

CEO COMMENTS

“The AZEK team delivered strong results this quarter including 27.6% net sales growth year-over-year, a net profit margin of 11.0% and a record fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 27.4%. Our Residential business grew 37.6% in the fourth quarter and 4.6% year-over-year, delivering an eighth straight year of net sales growth,” said Jesse Singh, CEO of The AZEK Company. “I am very proud of how the AZEK team was able to navigate in an uncertain market and consistently deliver against our commitments. The team outperformed by executing our growth playbook to drive above-market growth and by delivering against productivity initiatives to deliver net profit margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion in the second half of the fiscal year. Our focus on cash delivered strong operating cash flow and free cash flow generation of $362.5 million and $274.0 million, respectively, and returned $115.5 million to shareholders through share repurchases,” continued Mr. Singh.

“We also made significant progress across key strategic priorities in fiscal year 2023, including simplifying our portfolio to focus on Residential building product markets through the sale of our Vycom business, which closed on November 1st of this year. Vycom is a great business, and we believe that this separation will enable better focus for each business. During the year, we launched a number of new products and continued to increase the amount of recycled content we use in our TimberTech Advanced PVC decking and AZEK ExteriorsTM products. We are well positioned to capitalize on the momentum from both our shelf space and brand awareness gains in 2023 as well as our slate of new products for 2024, including the introduction of the new and improved TimberTech Composite Terrain+ CollectionTM, new TimberTech Aluminum Framing, new TimberTech Railing Horizontal Cable Infill and new AZEK Exteriors Bevel Siding,” said Mr. Singh.

“During the fiscal fourth quarter, we continued to see strong double-digit Residential sell-through growth driven by material conversion, execution against shelf space gains across pro and retail channels, and contribution from new products in Decking, Railing and Exteriors. We drove significant margin expansion through better manufacturing utilization, productivity initiatives and material savings,” said Mr. Singh. “I would once again like to thank the entire AZEK team and our partners that support The AZEK Company for each of their contributions to this year’s results,” said Mr. Singh. “AZEK’s fiscal year 2023 Residential net sales have increased 86.6% versus fiscal year 2019, highlighting the attractiveness, strength and resilience of our business model, and the markets we play in that include categories targeting material conversion. Our team’s focus on operational execution to drive above-market growth and margin expansion – even across difficult market conditions – positions us well as we begin fiscal year 2024,” continued Mr. Singh.

FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 2023 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $84.2 million, or 27.6%, to $388.8 million from $304.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to strong volume growth in our Residential segment, partially offset by volume declines in our Commercial segment, as expected. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased for our Residential segment by $95.4 million, or 37.6%, and decreased for our Commercial segment by $11.2 million, or 22.4%, in each case as compared to the prior year period. Within our Commercial

2

segment, net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased for Vycom by 32.8% and decreased for Scranton Products by 11.2%, in each case as compared to the prior year period.

Net income (loss) increased by $47.4 million to $42.6 million, or $0.28 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $(4.8) million, or $(0.03) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Net profit margin expanded 1,260 basis points to 11.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to net profit margin of (1.6%) for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $41.3 million to $106.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $65.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA Margin expanded 600 basis points to 27.4% from 21.4% for the prior year period.

Adjusted Net Income increased by $29.0 million to $53.5 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.36 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to Adjusted Net Income of $24.5 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.16 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Net sales for the year ended September 30, 2023 increased by $14.7 million, or 1.1%, to $1,370.3 million from $1,355.6 million for the year ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales in our Residential segment, which grew by 4.6%, partially offset by our Commercial segment which decreased by 21.1%, in each case as compared to the prior year. Within our Commercial segment, net sales for the year ended September 30, 2023 decreased for Vycom by 29.4% and decreased for Scranton Products by 9.4%, in each case as compared to the prior year.

Net income decreased by $7.3 million to $68.0 million, or $0.45 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared to net income of $75.2 million, or $0.49 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2022. This was primarily driven by the channel and AZEK inventory recalibration resulting in underutilization of manufacturing capacity in the first half of the year in addition to increases in general and administrative expenses and an increase in interest expense due to higher interest rates on outstanding debt and a higher average principal balance outstanding during the year ended September 30, 2023. Net profit margin declined 50 basis points to 5.0% for the year ended September 30, 2023, compared to net profit margin of 5.5% for the year ended September 30, 2022.

Adjusted Net Income was $111.7 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.74 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2023, compared to Adjusted Net Income of $149.3 million, or Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.97 per share, for the twelve months ended September 30, 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $9.8 million to $291.2 million from $301.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA Margin declined 90 basis points to 21.3% from 22.2% for the prior year period. As previously noted, Adjusted EBITDA Margin was impacted by the inventory recalibration and underutilization of manufacturing capacity in the first half of the year, and as the year progressed AZEK saw benefits from ongoing productivity and material savings initiatives.

BALANCE SHEET, CASH FLOW and LIQUIDITY

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $278.3 million and approximately $147.2 million available for future borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. Total gross debt, including finance leases, as of September 30, 2023, was $672.5 million.

3

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased by $86.5 million year-over-year to $126.6 million. Free Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased by $83.5 million year-over-year to $92.2 million.

During the quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares of its Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $60.6 million.

OUTLOOK

AZEK provides certain of its outlook on a non-GAAP basis, as the Company cannot predict some elements that are included in reported GAAP results, including the impact of acquisition costs and other costs. Refer to the Outlook section in the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures below for more details. Starting in fiscal year 2024, AZEK expects to combine all corporate expenses into its Residential reporting segment and expects to continue reporting Scranton Products within the Commercial reporting segment.

“We continue to see positive Residential sell-through growth, and demand indicators from our customer surveys and digital metrics remain constructive as we begin fiscal year 2024. Channel inventories are conservatively positioned through our fiscal year-end, and we are proactively managing our finished goods inventory levels to maintain high-levels of service. While we continue to see favorable demand indicators, we acknowledge there is continued macroeconomic uncertainty that may weigh on consumer confidence. Our fiscal year 2024 planning assumptions assume flat-to-down low single-digits repair & remodel market growth, and consistent with our historical track-record, we would expect to outperform the market driven by AZEK-specific initiatives including material conversion, channel expansion, new product innovations and consumer journey initiatives,” said Mr. Singh.

For the full-year fiscal 2024, AZEK expects consolidated net sales in the range of $1.335 to $1.395 billion and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $320 to $335 million. Following the sale of the Vycom business, AZEK expects the remaining Commercial segment’s Scranton Products business to deliver net sales in the range of $70 to $74 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $14 to $16 million. Excluding the Commercial segment, AZEK’s net sales guidance range would imply 3% to 8% year-over-year growth and 18% to 23% year-over-year growth in Adjusted EBITDA when combining corporate expenses with our Residential Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Capital expenditures for fiscal year 2024 are expected to be in the range of $70 to $95 million.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2024, AZEK expects consolidated net sales in the range of $230 to $236 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $45 to $48 million.

“We remain incredibly excited about the long-term material conversion opportunity ahead of us in the large and fast-growing outdoor living and home exteriors markets that AZEK plays in. Our fiscal year 2023 results reflect the strength of our industry-leading positioning, our focus on strategic growth initiatives, the resiliency of our markets and the significant margin expansion opportunities ahead of us. These results reaffirm our confidence in our long-term financial targets of driving double-digit annual net sales growth and expanding our Adjusted EBITDA Margin to the targeted approximately 27.5% by the end of fiscal year 2027,” concluded Mr. Singh.

We have based these forward-looking statements primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this earnings release may not occur and actual results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. You should read this earnings release with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this earnings release. While we believe that such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. We disclaim any intention and undertake no obligation to update or revise any of our forward-looking statements after the date of this release to reflect actual results or future events or circumstances whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement our earnings release and consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or (“GAAP”), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described within this earnings release, to provide investors with additional useful information about our financial performance, to enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects and to allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance and liquidity from management’s view and because we believe they provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance and liquidity over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. Our GAAP financial results include significant expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing operations as detailed within this earnings release.

6

However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, our earnings release and our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit before depreciation and amortization, business transformation costs, acquisition costs and certain other costs as described below. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is equal to Adjusted Gross Profit divided by net sales.

We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) before amortization, share-based compensation costs, business transformation costs, acquisition costs, initial public offering and secondary offering costs and certain other costs as described below.

We define Adjusted Diluted EPS as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted, to reflect the conversion or exercise, as applicable, of all outstanding shares of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and options to purchase shares of our common stock.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization and by adding to or subtracting therefrom items of expense and income as described above.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.

Net Leverage is equal to gross debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage are useful to investors because they help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by certain expenses that can vary from company to company depending on, among other things, its financing, capital structure and the method by which its assets were acquired, and can also vary significantly from period to period. For example, we add back depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation because we do not consider them indicative of our core operating performance. We believe their exclusion facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Therefore, we believe that showing gross profit and net income, as adjusted to remove the impact of these expenses, is helpful to investors in assessing our gross profit and net income performance in a way that is similar to the way management assesses our performance. Additionally, EBITDA and EBITDA margin are common measures of operating performance in our industry, and we believe they facilitate operating comparisons. Our management also uses Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in conjunction with other GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance.

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Profit Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

7

Because of these limitations, none of these metrics should be considered indicative of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

In addition, we provide Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available to us after capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is used by our management as a measure of our ability to generate and use cash, including in order to invest in future growth, fund acquisitions, return capital to our stockholders and repay indebtedness. Our use of Free Cash Flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

Segment Adjusted EBITDA

8

Depending on certain circumstances, Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin may be calculated differently, from time to time, than our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are further discussed under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin represent measures of segment profit reported to our chief operating decision maker for the purpose of making decisions about allocating resources to a segment and assessing its performance. For more information regarding how Segment Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin are determined, see the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Segment Results of Operations” set forth in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2023 and our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included therein.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Reconciliation

(1) Acquisition and divestiture costs reflect costs related to divestiture of $2.4 million, $0.4 million, $3.0 million and $0.5 million for fourth quarters 2023 and 2022 and fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively, costs directly related to completed acquisitions of $3.8 million, $3.9 million and $11.5 million for fourth quarter 2022 and fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively, and inventory step-up adjustments related to recording the inventory of acquired businesses at fair value on the date of acquisition of $0.2 million and $1.4 million for fourth quarter 2022 and fiscal year 2022, respectively.

(2) During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, we updated the process by which we estimate the value of our inventory. This included updating the assumptions that are used in determining and treating certain capitalized costs, primarily by incorporating the impacts of changes in the amount of recycled content introduced into our products.

(3) Other costs reflect reduction in workforce costs of $0.3 million, $0.9 million, $0.5 million and $1.6 million for fourth quarters 2023 and 2022 and fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively, legal expenses of $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.9 million for fourth quarter 2022 and fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively, costs related to an incentive plan and other ancillary expenses associated with the initial public offering of $0.1 million for fiscal year 2022, and other costs of $0.2 million for fiscal year 2022.

Outlook

We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA guidance to its most comparable GAAP measure as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as the costs of acquisitions, which are a core part of our ongoing business strategy, and other costs. Such reconciling items that impact Adjusted EBITDA have not occurred, are outside of our control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to these reconciling items could have a significant effect on our Adjusted EBITDA guidance and future GAAP results.
