Disciplined capital allocation will continue to support Doors That Do More™ strategy and drive enhanced shareholder value

Masonite International Corporation (“Masonite” or the “Company”) (NYSE: DOOR), a leading global designer, manufacturer, marketer and distributor of interior and exterior doors and premium door systems, today confirmed the termination of its previously announced definitive merger agreement to acquire PGT Innovations, Inc. (“PGT Innovations” or “PGTI”) (NYSE: PGTI). This termination follows the Masonite Board of Directors’ decision not to submit a revised offer to acquire PGT Innovations, after being notified that the PGTI Board had determined that a revised proposal from MITER Brands submitted on January 12, 2024, was a “superior proposal.” In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, Masonite received a termination fee of $84 million.

“The decision to waive our right to increase our offer reflects our commitment to financial discipline and rigor in our strategic investments,” said Howard Heckes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Masonite. “We remain focused on the execution of our Doors That Do More™ growth initiatives and the pursuit of our 2027 financial goals. I am confident in Masonite’s ability to create long-term value for our customers and our shareholders as we continue to deliver reliable supply, drive product leadership and win the sale.”

Masonite leadership will provide further details and address questions in conjunction with the Company’s fourth quarter and full year 2023 earnings conference call.
