Janus International Group, Inc. Reports Q3 Earnings

TEMPLE, Ga. – Janus International Group, Inc. (NYSE:JBI) reported third quarter earnings that fell short of analyst expectations and lowered its full-year outlook due to macroeconomic headwinds and project delays affecting results.

The building products provider posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.11 for Q3, missing the analyst consensus of $0.21. Revenue amounted to $230.1 million, below expectations of $248.21 million and down 17.9% YoY from $280.1 million.

> "We saw continued pressure in the third quarter as headwinds from macroeconomic factors, interest rate uncertainty, and project delays persisted," said CEO Ramey Jackson.

Self-storage revenues, the company’s largest segment, declined 22.4% YoY to $149.1 million. Commercial and other revenues also fell 7.8% to $81.0 million.

Janus revised its full-year 2024 guidance, now expecting revenue in the range of $910-925 million, down from its previous outlook and below the $1,005 million consensus. The company forecasts adjusted EBITDA of $195-205 million.

In response to current market conditions, Janus announced a structural cost-reduction plan aimed at streamlining its workforce and reducing expenses, expected to save $8-12 million annually in pre-tax costs.

Despite the near-term challenges, Jackson expressed confidence in the company’s long-term prospects, citing strong self-storage industry fundamentals and strategic initiatives like the recent NokÄ" Ion product launch.

Janus ended the quarter with $102.1 million in cash and a net leverage ratio of 2.0x. During Q3, the company repurchased 4.3 million shares for $45.5 million.
