____________________________________________________________________________
DALLAS, January 29, 2025 – Lennox (NYSE: LII), a leader in energy-efficient climate-control solutions, today reported fourth quarter financial results with $1.3 billion of revenue, a record $245 million of operating income and $5.52 GAAP diluted earnings per share.
Core revenue grew 22% to $1.3 billion. Adjusted segment profit rose 41% to $248 million. Adjusted segment margin was up 250 basis points to a record 18.4%. Adjusted diluted earnings per share rose 54% to $5.60.
"2024 was a remarkable year filled with record achievements, and last quarter continued that momentum as we delivered impressive results across the board," said CEO, Alok Maskara. "Our significant progress in cash conversion reflects a relentless focus on operational excellence. We successfully navigated the complex product transition to the new refrigerant while maintaining a disciplined approach to M&A. These accomplishments not only highlight the strength of our execution but also reinforce our confidence in driving differentiated growth and creating long-term value for our stakeholders.”
The Home Comfort Solutions segment delivered 25% revenue growth in the fourth quarter, fueled by strong sales volume and continued pricing excellence. Sales volume benefited from industry R-410A prebuy ahead of the refrigerant transition in 2025. Segment profit margins increased by 550 basis points, driven by strong volume leverage, favorable trends in component and commodity costs, and significant gains in factory productivity.
Building Climate Solutions segment revenue increased by 17% this quarter, partially driven by early benefits from the new commercial factory. The new factory ramp-up costs, along with existing factory inefficiencies, put pressure on segment profit margins compared to the fourth quarter of last year. The AES integration continues to outperform expectations, exceeding synergies and driving notable customer wins. Additionally, early results from the emergency replacement pilot launch set a promising foundation for volume growth in 2025.
FOURTH QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
(All comparisons are year-over-year, unless otherwise noted)
Revenue: $1.3 billion was up 16% and up 22% for core operations, with organic revenue up 21% driven by favorable sales volume as well as price/mix benefits.
Operating Income: $245 million, up 32%, with operating profit margin of 18.2%, up 220 basis points.
Adjusted Segment Profit: $248 million, up 41%, and adjusted segment profit margin of 18.4%, up 250 basis points. Profit growth was driven by $75 million in organic and inorganic sales volume, and $35 million of price/mix benefits. This was partially offset by inflation and the new commercial factory, SG&A, and distribution investments.
Net Income: $198 million, or $5.52 per share, compared to $145 million, or $4.04 per share, in the prior-year quarter.
Adjusted Net Income: $201 million, or $5.60 per share, compared to $130 million, or $3.63 per share, in the prior-year quarter.
Cash Flow: Operating cash flow was $332 million compared to $306 million in the prior-year quarter. Capital expenditures were $60 million compared to $125 million in the prior-year quarter. This quarter the company repurchased $41 million in shares.
Home Comfort Solutions: Business segment revenue was $887 million, up 25%. Segment profit was $193 million, up 67%, and segment margin was 21.7%, up 550 basis points. Segment profit increased $78 million compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase was attributed to $56 million in sales volume and $28 million in price/mix benefits. Additional benefits from factory productivity and favorable product costs, including LIFO, contributed an additional $16 million in profit. This was partially offset by a $22 million impact from inflation and investments in distribution and selling.
Building Climate Solutions: Business segment revenue was $458 million, up 17%. Organic revenue was $448 million, up 14%. Segment profit was $99 million, up $8 million or 9%, and segment margin decreased 160 basis points to 21.6%. This profit improvement was driven by a $19 million increase in organic and inorganic sales volume, $7 million in price/mix improvement and $2 million in distribution productivity. This was offset by $20 million in expenses related to the new factory ramp-up, manufacturing inefficiencies at existing facilities, and inflationary impacts.
Corporate and Other: Corporate expenses were $44 million, an increase of $13 million versus the prior-year quarter adjusted amount. This increase was primarily driven by SG&A expenses related to inflation, investments and timing of incentive compensation.
FULL YEAR 2024 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Adjusted Segment Profit: $1.0 billion, up 22%, and adjusted segment profit margin of 19.4%, up 150 basis points. Profit growth was driven by $149 million in organic and inorganic sales volume, and $162 million of price/mix benefits. This was partially offset by $124 million of inflation as well as investments in the new commercial factory, SG&A, and distribution.
Net Income: $807 million, or $22.54 per share, compared to $590 million, or $16.54 per share, in the prior-year.

Benefits from factory productivity and favorable product costs, including LIFO, contributed an additional $10 million in profit. This was partially offset by a $72 million impact from inflation and investments in distribution and selling.
Building Climate Solutions: Business segment revenue was $1.8 billion, up 17%. Organic revenue was $1.7 billion, up 12%. Segment profit was $397 million, up $56 million or 16%, and segment margin was flat at 22.5%. This profit improvement was driven by a $59 million increase in organic and inorganic sales volume and $39 million in price/mix improvement. This was offset by $33 million in higher product costs primarily related to the new factory ramp-up and manufacturing inefficiencies at existing facilities. In addition, there were $9 million of other expense increases related to SG&A, inflation, and investments.
Corporate and Other: Corporate expenses were $120 million, an increase of $19 million versus the prior-year adjusted amount.
FULL YEAR 2025 GUIDANCE
For full year 2025, core revenue is anticipated to increase by approximately 2%, primarily driven by the mix of new refrigerant products, along with low single-digit increases in price and volume. Volume expectations were tempered by the effects of the pre-buy for legacy refrigerant products in 2024.
Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be within the range of $22.00 to $23.50.
Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $150 million, and Free Cash Flow is estimated to fall within the range of $650 million to $800 million.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS & NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The statements in this document that are not historical statements, including statements regarding the 2025 full-year outlook and expected consolidated and segment financial results, as well as financial targets for future years, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available as well as management’s assumptions and beliefs today. These statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by the statements, and investors should not place undue reliance on them. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements include risks that the North American unitary HVAC and refrigeration markets perform worse than current assumptions. Additional risks include but are not limited to competition in the HVACR business; our ability to successfully develop and market new products or execute our business strategy; our ability to meet and anticipate customer demands; our ability to continue to license or enforce our intellectual property rights; our ability to attract, motivate, develop, and retain our employees, as well as labor relations problems; a decline in new construction activity and related demand for our products and services; the impact of weather on our business; the impact of higher raw material prices and significant supply interruptions; changes in environmental and climate-related legislation or government regulations or policies; changes in tax legislation; the impact of new or increased trade tariffs; warranty, intellectual property infringement, product liability and other claims; litigation risks; general economic conditions in the United States and abroad; extraordinary events beyond our control; foreign currency fluctuations and changes in local government regulation associated with our international operations; cyber attacks and other disruptions or misuse of information systems; our ability to successfully realize, complete and integrate acquisitions; and impairment of the value of our goodwill.
For information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties, see LII’s publicly available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LII disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures appearing in this document to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are included in the Annex to this document.
This document includes forward-looking statements regarding core revenue, segment profit, adjusted segment profit, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, and Debt to EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in environmental liabilities, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, future restructuring costs, and other structural changes or their probable significance. Core revenue, adjusted segment profit, and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude net sales and profit/(loss) from our European portfolio, which was sold in 4Q 2023. We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on LII’s full year GAAP financial results.
