Carlisle Companies Reports Q2 2025 Financial Results with Revenue of $1.45 Billion

Carlisle Companies Incorporated reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, revealing revenues of $1.45 billion, a slight decrease of 0.1% from $1.45 billion in the same period last year. For the first half of 2025, revenues totaled $2.55 billion, down from $2.55 billion in the prior year. The company's operating income for the second quarter was $335 million, compared to $377.5 million in the previous year, while net income fell significantly to $255.8 million from $712.4 million, largely due to a substantial gain from discontinued operations recorded in the prior year.

The decline in profitability was attributed to increased costs and lower sales in the residential construction market, which were not fully offset by gains in the non-residential sector. Selling and administrative expenses rose to $196.9 million from $189.3 million year-over-year, driven by higher wage and benefit costs, as well as acquisition-related expenses. Research and development expenses also increased, reflecting the company's commitment to innovation as part of its Vision 2030 strategy.

Strategically, Carlisle has been active in acquisitions, completing the purchase of Bonded Logic, Inc. and Phoenix Fibers, LLC for $60.7 million on June 30, 2025. This acquisition aligns with Carlisle's focus on sustainable building products and is expected to enhance its insulation offerings. Additionally, the company acquired ThermaFoam Operating LLC earlier in the year for $52.9 million, further expanding its product portfolio in the insulation market. These acquisitions are anticipated to generate annual synergies exceeding $34 million.

Operationally, Carlisle's customer base and market engagement metrics reflect a mixed performance. The company reported a decrease in customer counts in the residential sector, influenced by ongoing challenges in housing starts and builder sentiment. However, the commercial re-roofing market remains stable, contributing approximately 70% of Carlisle's commercial roofing business. The company continues to invest in automation and customer service enhancements to improve operational efficiency and customer experience.

Looking ahead, Carlisle's management remains cautious but optimistic about the second half of 2025. They anticipate continued challenges in the residential market but expect stability in the commercial sector. The company is committed to executing its Vision 2030 initiatives, focusing on innovation, operational excellence, and strategic acquisitions to bolster its market position. Despite the current economic uncertainties, Carlisle aims to maintain its leadership in the building products industry while delivering value to shareholders through disciplined capital allocation.
