&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;■ Gross margin was 33.6%; adjusted gross margin of 34.2% increased 200 basis points year-on-year driven mainly by pricing execution and restructuring savings;

**Summary of Second Quarter 2026 Results:**

The Company's net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $950 million, up 5.8% versus the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Pricing increased net revenue by 3.0%, which more than offset slightly lower volume, resulting in a 2.6% organic revenue increase year-on-year. Foreign currency translation and the impact of acquisitions increased net revenue by 3.1% and 0.1%, respectively.

------

Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $320 million. Adjusted gross profit was $325 million. Adjusted gross profit margin of 34.2% increased 200 basis points year-on-year. The impact of pricing execution and restructuring savings drove the majority of the year-on-year increase in adjusted gross profit margin.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $202 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and adjusted SG&A was $196 million, up 11% year-on-year. Adjusting for the impact of foreign exchange and variable compensation related to higher projected income for the year, adjusted SG&A was up approximately 3% year-on-year.

Net income attributable to H.B. Fuller for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $68 million. Adjusted net income attributable to H.B. Fuller for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $78 million. Reported EPS (diluted) was $1.23 and adjusted EPS (diluted) was $1.41, up 19% year-on-year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $181 million, up 9% year-on-year, driven principally by the impact of pricing execution and restructuring savings.

"We executed very well in the second quarter, delivering strong year-on-year revenue, EBITDA, and EPS growth, with results above the midpoint of our EBITDA guidance range," said Celeste Mastin, president and chief executive officer. "Our global sourcing capabilities and swift pricing actions have enabled us to maintain supply continuity and reliably serve our customers through market disruption. These efforts, combined with our Quantum Leap restructuring initiative, have strengthened our competitive position and we remain confident in our ability to deliver strong financial results."

Mastin continued, "While the external environment remains dynamic, our focus is clear: we are executing on what we can control, leveraging our competitive strengths, and continuing to build a business that is more durable and better positioned to deliver superior long-term growth."

**Balance Sheet and Working Capital:**

Net debt at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $1,958 million, down $58 million year-on-year. Net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA was 3.1X, down from 3.4X at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Net working capital in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was 16.4% as a percentage of annualized net revenue and decreased 260 basis points sequentially versus the first quarter. Cash flow from operations improved to $121 million, a record second quarter, driven primarily by higher net income. As previously communicated, cash flow delivery for 2026 is expected to be weighted to the second half of the year.

------

As a result of our year-to-date performance, we are updating our previously communicated financial guidance for fiscal 2026:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;■ Net revenue for fiscal 2026 is still expected to be up mid-single digits; organic revenue is still expected to be up low-single digits and the impact from foreign exchange is still expected to be positive 1% to 2%;
