2026 Financial Guidance

For 2026 guidance, SSD projects revenue growth of 4–6 %, a consolidated operating margin of 19.5–20.5 % (slightly higher than the previous 19.6 % outlook), and operating income of $520–$560 million. Gross profit margin guidance is 47–49 %, acknowledging a likely lower overall gross margin due to tariffs and increased depreciation. Management remains cautious about North American housing starts, expecting a flat regional mix, but emphasizes the firm’s resilience in soft markets and its positioning to capitalize on a recovering residential market.
