“We expect the end market demand in new residential construction (21% of sales) and repair and upgrade (30% of sales) to continue to be soft during the remainder of the year due to ongoing economic uncertainty, elevated interest rates, weak consumer confidence, and low existing home sales. The maintenance end market (35% of sales) should continue to grow modestly, and we expect new commercial construction demand (14% of sales) to be flat. We expect pricing, which was flat in the second quarter, to be flat in the third quarter and up 1% to 2% in the fourth quarter, dampened primarily by grass seed deflation,” Black continued. “With the benefit of our commercial initiatives, we expect sales volume to be modestly positive, yielding low single-digit Organic Daily Sales growth for the remainder of the year. Our results so far in July support this trend. With strong cost control, focus branch improvement, improved price realization, and contributions from acquisitions, we expect to expand Adjusted EBITDA margin for the full year 2025. Given these trends, we continue to expect our full year Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $400 million to $430 million. Our guidance does not include any contributions from unannounced acquisitions.”
