Enterprise Strategy Highlights

• Owens Corning continues to invest in accelerating new product and process innovation to support customers and generate additional growth. In the third quarter, it launched 15 new or refreshed products.
• On July 1, the company completed the sale of its European dry-use chopped strand (DUCS) manufacturing assets located in Chambéry, France. This transaction resulted in a divestiture of approximately $100 million of annual sales. Consistent with its strategy to accelerate growth and generate higher and more sustainable margins, the company will convert the other two DUCS facilities to produce glass fiber supporting building and construction applications.
• On August 1, Owens Corning announced that it completed the acquisition of Natural Polymers, LLC, an innovative manufacturer of spray polyurethane foam insulation for building and construction applications. This acquisition advances the company's strategy to strengthen its core building and construction products and expand its addressable markets into higher-growth segments. Natural Polymers expects to deliver annual sales of approximately $100 million in 2022.
• On September 1, the company completed the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in an existing joint venture based in the U.S., that produces high-quality wet-formed fiberglass mat for roofing applications. The acquisition advances the Composites strategy to focus on high-value material solutions and expands Owens Corning’s capacity to produce nonwoven mat.

Cash Returned to Shareholders

• During the first nine months of 2022, the company returned $639 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. In the third quarter, the company paid dividends of $33 million and repurchased 2.5 million shares of common stock for $206 million. As of the end of the quarter, 7.4 million shares were available for repurchase under the current authorization.
• In September, Owens Corning announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per common share, a 35% increase compared with the same period in 2021.

“Our strong and consistent cash generation, combined with our solid financial position, provide us the flexibility to continue to execute on our enterprise strategy. Through the first nine months of 2022, we generated $1.1 billion of operating cash flow and $779 million of free cash flow enabling us to deploy capital in support of our strategy, while returning more than $600 million of cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Ken Parks. “We remain committed to maintaining our investment-grade balance sheet and to returning at least 50% of free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.”

Other Key Highlights

• Owens Corning sustained a high level of safety performance in the third quarter with a recordable incident rate (RIR) of 0.64.
• As previously reported, Owens Corning made the decision to exit Russia through a transfer or sale of its facilities and halted all future investments in Russia. The company has entered into an agreement to sell its Russian operations, subject to regulatory approvals. 2021 net sales in Russia were approximately $100 million.

Segment Performance

• Composites net sales increased 8% to $638 million in third-quarter 2022 compared with third-quarter 2021, primarily due to higher selling prices and the favorable impact of customer mix partially offset by lower volumes. EBIT increased $25 million to $126 million, with 20% EBIT margins, on higher selling prices and favorable mix, which offset input cost inflation and increased transportation costs as well as lower volumes.
• Insulation net sales increased 18% to $965 million in third-quarter 2022 compared with third-quarter 2021, as a result of higher selling prices and the acquisition of Natural Polymers. EBIT increased $49 million to $173 million, with 18% EBIT margins, on higher selling prices which offset accelerating energy, material and transportation inflation.
• Roofing net sales increased 15% to $1.0 billion in third-quarter 2022 compared with third-quarter 2021, primarily due to higher selling prices partially offset by slightly lower volumes. EBIT increased $17 million to $229 million, with 23% EBIT margins, primarily due to higher selling prices which offset cost inflation, primarily asphalt.

Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Outlook

• The key economic factors that impact the company's businesses are residential repair and remodeling activity, U.S. housing starts, global commercial construction activity, and global industrial production.
• In the near term, the company expects many of its end markets to moderate with the changing macro-economic environment. The company continues to closely manage the ongoing impacts of inflation and supply chain disruptions as well as the regional impacts of COVID-19 on the business.
• For fourth-quarter 2022, the company expects overall performance to result in growth of net sales and adjusted EBIT for the quarter, versus the comparable quarter in the prior year.

Current 2022 financial outlook is presented below:

General Corporate Expenses	$170 million to $180 million
Interest Expense	$110 million to $115 million(1)
Effective Tax Rate on Adjusted Earnings	24% to 26%(2)
Cash Tax Rate on Adjusted Earnings	22% to 24%

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 EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, 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 EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA, 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 EBITDA, 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 generate 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 these measures provide a useful representation of our operational performance and liquidity; however, the measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash flow provided by operating activities or net earnings attributable to Owens Corning as prepared in accordance with GAAP.

When the company provides forward-looking expectations for non-GAAP measures, 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.

(a)	Please refer to Table 2 "EBIT Reconciliation Schedules" for additional information on adjusting items.
(b)	The tax impact of adjusting items is based on our expected tax accounting treatment and rate for the jurisdiction of each adjusting item. There is no tax benefit from the Chambéry, France assets held for sale impairment loss due to the entity being under a full valuation allowance. There is no change in basis related to the Fiberteq equity method investment gain thus creating a permanent adjustment on the gain attributable to goodwill.
(c)	To compute adjusted earnings, we apply a full year pro forma effective tax rate to each quarter presented. For 2022, we have used a full year pro forma effective tax rate of 25%, which is the mid-point of our 2022 effective tax rate guidance of 24% to 26%, excluding the adjusting items referenced in (a), (b) and (c). For comparability, in 2021, we have used an effective tax rate of 24%, which was our 2021 effective tax rate, excluding the adjusting items referenced in (a) and (b).
