1.b. Last Insights on SSD

Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc.'s recent performance was negatively impacted by a significant reduction in stake by institutional investor Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, which sold 82,910 shares, lowering its stake by 96.5%. Despite Q3 2025 financial results showing a 6.2% year-over-year increase in net sales to $623.5 million and a 12.7% increase in income from operations, the company's performance was likely affected. Additionally, the company announced a share repurchase program, increasing its 2025 authorization to $120.0 million and announcing 2026 share repurchases of up to $150.0 million.

1.c. Company Highlights

2. Simpson Manufacturing's Q3 2025 Earnings: Solid Performance Amidst Macro Challenges

Simpson Manufacturing Co. reported a 6.2% year-over-year increase in net sales to $623.5 million for the third quarter of 2025, driven by a June price increase and a positive impact from foreign exchange. The company's consolidated gross margin was 46.4%, slightly below the previous year, due to higher input costs. Operating margin was 22.6%, up 130 basis points year-over-year, including a $12.9 million gain from the sale of the Gallatin, Tennessee facility. Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.56, beating analyst estimates of $2.37.

Publication Date: Oct -28

📋 Highlights
  • Net Sales Growth:: Increased 6.2% YoY to $623.5M, driven by a June price hike and foreign exchange benefits.
  • Operating Margin Expansion:: Rose 130 bps to 22.6% YoY, aided by a $12.9M facility sale gain but offset by $3M restructuring costs.
  • Cost Savings Initiatives:: Aims for $30M annualized savings by 2026, with $9M–$12M one-time charges in 2025 and $52M from pricing actions.
  • Strong Cash Flow & Buybacks:: Generated $169.5M cash from operations, repurchased $30M stock, and authorized an additional $20M in buybacks.
  • Regional Performance:: Europe net sales surged 10.9% to $134.4M (vs. 4.8% in North America), driven by above-market growth and profitability improvements.

Segment Performance

The company's North American net sales rose 4.8% to $483.6 million, while European net sales increased 10.9% to $134.4 million. The residential market was down mid-single digits for the quarter, but Simpson continues to pick up share at some of its lumber yards and pro dealers. Europe is also seeing above-market growth and improving profitability.

Cost Savings Initiatives

Simpson is undertaking proactive strategic cost savings initiatives to align operations with evolving market demand, expecting to generate annualized cost savings of at least $30 million with one-time charges of approximately $9 million to $12 million. These initiatives will deliver at least $30 million of annualized cost savings in 2026, primarily in SG&A, with a little bit in COGS.

Outlook and Guidance

The company updated its 2025 outlook, expecting an operating margin of 19% to 20%, U.S. housing starts to decline mid-single digits, and a slightly lower overall gross margin. For 2026, Simpson targets $150 million in share repurchases, barring unforeseen events or significant M&A, and expects to outperform the mid-single digits market growth.

Valuation and Metrics

With a P/E Ratio of 21.32, P/B Ratio of 2.97, and EV/EBITDA of 12.08, Simpson's valuation metrics indicate a relatively stable position. The company's ROE (%) of 17.04 and ROIC (%) of 12.94 suggest a strong ability to generate returns. Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 5.1%, which is slightly higher than the company's expected outperformance of the mid-single digits market growth.
