• | Composites delivered EBIT of $61 million |

TOLEDO, Ohio - October 26, 2016 - Owens Corning (NYSE: OC) today reported consolidated net sales of $1.52 billion in the third quarter of 2016, compared to net sales of $1.45 billion in the prior-year period.
The company reported net earnings of $112 million, or $0.97 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2016, compared with net earnings of $112 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, in the same period in 2015. Third quarter 2016 adjusted earnings were $125 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, compared with $113 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, during the same period one year ago (See Use of Non-GAAP Measures).
“In the third quarter, Owens Corning continued the strong performance we have seen throughout 2016. Our Roofing business delivered another outstanding quarter with favorable market conditions, great margin performance and revenue growth associated with our first-half acquisition. Based on our strong performance and cash flow outlook, the Board of Directors has approved an additional share repurchase authorization for up to 10 million shares,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mike Thaman.
Consolidated Third-Quarter Results and Other Highlights
• | Owens Corning continues to perform at a high level of safety with a recordable incident rate of 0.52 for the first nine months of 2016, consistent with the comparable period in 2015. |
• | Reported earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) for the third quarter of 2016 were $207 million, compared with $196 million during the same period in 2015. Adjusted EBIT in the third quarter was $218 million, up from $198 million in 2015 (See Table 2). |
• | Year-to-date cash from operating activities improved by $269 million year-over-year as a result of improved earnings and working capital performance (See Table 8). |
• | During the third quarter, Owens Corning repurchased 1.6 million shares of its common stock for $86 million. During the first nine months of 2016, the company repurchased 3.4 million shares for $171 million. The Board of Directors has approved an additional share repurchase authorization for up to 10 million shares. |
• | The company issued $400 million of 10-year senior unsecured notes at 3.4 percent. The proceeds were used to redeem the remaining $158 million in outstanding 6.5 percent senior notes due later this year. The company also paid off the $300 million term loan associated with the InterWrap acquisition. |
• | The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per common share. The dividend will be payable on November 2, 2016, to shareholders of record as of October 17, 2016. |
• | For the seventh consecutive year, Owens Corning earned placement in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World) in recognition of its sustainability initiatives, and was named industry leader for the DJSI Building Products group for the fourth consecutive year. |
Outlook
The company expects an environment consistent with consensus expectations for U.S. housing starts and moderate global growth.
In Composites, the company continues to expect growth in the glass fiber market, driven by moderate global industrial production growth. The company is on track to deliver EBIT growth of about $30 million for 2016, with rebuild and plant start up expenses sequentially lower by over $10 million in the fourth quarter.
In Roofing, the company now expects low-teen market growth for 2016, including modest demand from Hurricane Matthew. While this revised demand outlook now assumes growth in the second half, we have challenging volume comparisons against the very strong fourth quarter of 2015.
In Insulation, the company experienced a more competitive environment in the U.S. new residential construction market and now expects full-year 2016 revenue could be down by about five percent compared with 2015, with a full-year EBIT margin rate one percentage point below last year. The company believes pricing stabilized late in the summer and the mid-term outlook for this business remains unchanged.
The company estimates an effective tax rate of 32 percent to 34 percent, and a cash tax rate of 10 percent to 12 percent on adjusted pre-tax earnings, due to the company’s $2.0 billion U.S. tax net operating loss carryforward.
The company now expects general corporate expenses at the bottom half of the $120 million to $130 million guidance range in 2016. Capital additions in 2016 are expected to total approximately $385 million, including an estimated $50 million for the completion of the previously announced mineral fiber insulation facility. Interest expense is expected to be about $110 million.
For the full-year 2016, the company continues to expect adjusted EBIT of $700 million or more.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Owens Corning uses non-GAAP measures in its earnings press release that are intended to supplement investors’ understanding of the company’s financial information. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted EBIT, adjusted earnings, adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to Owens Corning common stockholders (“adjusted EPS”), adjusted pre-tax earnings and free cash flow. When used to report historical financial information, reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included in the financial tables of this press release. Specifically see Table 2 for adjusted EBIT, Table 3 for adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS, and Table 8 for free cash flow.
For purposes of internal review of Owens Corning’s year-over-year operational performance, management excludes from net earnings attributable to Owens Corning certain items it believes are not representative of ongoing operations. The non-GAAP financial measures resulting from these adjustments (including adjusted EBIT, adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted pre-tax earnings) are used internally by Owens Corning for various purposes, including reporting results of operations to the Board of Directors, analysis of performance, and related employee compensation measures. Management believes that these adjustments result in a measure that provides a useful representation of its operational performance; however the adjusted measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings attributable to Owens Corning as prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure used by investors, financial analysts and management to help evaluate the company's ability to use cash to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. Free cash flow is not a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures due to the company’s mandatory debt service requirements. Free cash flow is used internally by the company for various purposes, including reporting results of operations to the Board of Directors of the company and analysis of performance. Management believes that this measure provides a useful representation of our operational performance and liquidity; however the measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash flow provided by operating activities as prepared in accordance with GAAP.
When the company provides forward-looking expectations for non-GAAP measures (adjusted EBIT and adjusted pre-tax earnings), the most comparable GAAP measures and a reconciliation between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures are generally not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP measures in future periods. The variability in timing and amount of adjusting items could have significant and unpredictable effect on our future GAAP results.
