CEO REMARKS
"I am proud of our team's strong start to the year, as all three of our segments delivered strong top-line growth and profit expansion," said Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, John G. Morikis. "Our sales growth was driven by strong architectural paint demand, improving demand in the industrial end markets served, and pricing actions to offset raw material cost increases. We leveraged this strong sales growth to solid margin expansion across all of our businesses. In the quarter, we delivered 12.3% sales growth, 51.5% adjusted EPS growth, and 320 basis points of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion. We continued to generate strong cash, which allowed us to invest in long-term strategic growth initiatives, repurchase 3.3 million shares in the first quarter, and open 12 new stores in the U.S. and Canada. We also completed the previously announced divestiture of our Wattyl business in Australia and New Zealand.
"In The Americas Group, our residential repaint, new residential and DIY businesses grew sales by double-digits, while our new commercial business continued its rebound growing sales low-single-digits. Strength in DIY end markets continued in our Consumer Brands Group, as sales were up double-digits across all regions. In Performance Coatings Group, our industrial wood and general industrial businesses grew by double-digits, while our packaging and coil businesses grew high-single-digits. Our automotive refinish business grew mid-single-digits."

Consolidated net sales increased primarily due to higher product sales volume in each of our three segments. Income before income taxes increased primarily due to higher sales volumes, partially offset by increased raw material costs across all three segments.
Diluted net income per share included a $0.34 per share loss from the divestiture of the Wattyl business, an Australian and New Zealand manufacturer and seller of architectural and protective paint and coatings, and a charge of $0.21 per share for acquisition-related amortization expense.

Commenting on the Company's outlook, Mr. Morikis noted, "While we are very encouraged with our strong start to the year in a seasonally smaller quarter and continuing strength in the demand environment, our full year adjusted earnings guidance remains unchanged given the near-term uncertainty of raw material availability and cost inflation. Despite the uncertainties, our businesses are extremely well positioned, and we remain confident in our long-term ability to grow faster than the market. We look forward to our June 8th Financial Community Presentation, where we will provide an update on full year sales and EPS guidance, business demand trends, raw material dynamics, technology investments, and our robust ESG initiatives."

Regulation G Reconciliations
Management of the Company believes that investors' understanding of the Company's operating performance is enhanced by the disclosure of diluted net income per share excluding the loss on the divestiture of Wattyl, and Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense. This adjusted earnings per share measurement is not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). It should not be considered a substitute for earnings per share computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The following tables reconcile diluted net income per share computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP to adjusted diluted net income per share.
