CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Selected statements contained in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, in MD&A and in "Note D - Contingent Liabilities and Commitments," constitute "forward-looking statements," as that term is used in the PSLRA. We wish to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions included in the PSLRA. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events. These statements are often identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "may," "could," "should," "would," "intend," "plan," "will," "likely," "estimate," "project," "position," "strategy," "target," "aim," "seek," "foresee," and similar words or phrases. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to:

future or expected cash positions, liquidity and ability to access financial markets and capital;
outlook, strategy or business plans;
anticipated benefits of the Separation;
expected financial and operational performance, and future opportunities;
performance on a pro forma basis to illustrate the estimated effects of the Separation on historical periods;
the tax treatment of the Separation transaction;
future or expected growth, growth potential, forward momentum, performance, competitive position, sales, volumes, cash flows, earnings, margins, balance sheet strengths, debt, financial condition or other financial measures;
pricing trends for raw materials and finished goods and the impact of pricing changes;
the ability to improve or maintain margins;
expected demand or demand trends;
additions to product lines and opportunities to participate in new markets;
expected benefits from transformation and innovation efforts;
the ability to improve performance and competitive position;
anticipated working capital needs, capital expenditures and asset sales;
anticipated improvements and efficiencies in costs, operations, sales, inventory management, sourcing and the supply chain and the results thereof;
projected profitability potential;
the ability to make acquisitions, form joint ventures and consolidate operations, and the projected timing, results, benefits, costs, charges and expenditures related to acquisitions, joint ventures, headcount reductions and facility dispositions, shutdowns and consolidations;
projected capacity and the alignment of operations with demand;
the ability to operate profitably and generate cash in down markets;
the ability to capture and maintain market share and to develop or take advantage of future opportunities, customer initiatives, new businesses, new products and new markets;
expectations for inventories, jobs and orders;
expectations for the economy and markets or improvements therein;
expectations for generating improving and sustainable earnings, earnings potential, margins or shareholder value;
effects of judicial rulings, laws and regulations;
anticipated improvements in our business and efficiencies to be gained from the use of AI and other technologies;
effects of cybersecurity breaches and other disruptions to information technology infrastructure;
the impact of the outbreak of a national emergency, public health crisis or global pandemic, such as COVID-19, on economies and markets, and on our customers, counterparties, employees and third-party service providers; and
other non-historical matters.

Because they are based on beliefs, estimates and assumptions, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Any number of factors could affect actual results, including, without limitation, those that follow:

the ability to successfully realize the anticipated benefits of the Separation;
the effect of conditions in national and worldwide financial markets, including inflation, increases in interest rates and economic recession, and with respect to the ability of financial institutions to provide capital;
the impact of tariffs, the adoption of trade restrictions affecting our products or suppliers, a U.S. withdrawal from or significant renegotiation of trade agreements, the occurrence of trade wars, the closing of border crossings, and other changes in trade regulations or relationships;
changing prices and/or supply of steel, natural gas, oil, copper, zinc, and other raw materials;
product demand and pricing;

capacity levels and efficiencies, within facilities, within major product markets and within the industries in which we participate;
the effect of disruption in the business of suppliers, customers, facilities and shipping operations due to adverse weather, casualty events, equipment breakdowns, labor shortages, interruption in utility services, civil unrest, international conflicts, terrorist activities, or other causes;
changes in customer demand, inventories, spending patterns, product choices, and supplier choices;
risks associated with doing business internationally, including economic, political and social instability, foreign currency exchange rate exposure and the acceptance of our products in global markets;
the ability to improve and maintain processes and business practices to keep pace with the economic, competitive and technological environment;
the operational, data privacy, security, regulatory, and legal risks associated with our reliance on AI technologies as well as our inability to stay abreast of technological advancements and our dependence on third parties who rely on AI technologies;
the effect of inflation, interest rate increases and economic recession, which may negatively impact our operations and financial results;
deviation of actual results from estimates and/or assumptions used by us in the application of our significant accounting policies;
the level of imports and import prices in our markets;

the impact of judicial rulings and governmental regulations, both in the U.S. and abroad, including those adopted by the SEC and other governmental agencies as contemplated by the CARES Act, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010;
the effect of healthcare laws in the U.S and potential changes for such laws which may increase our healthcare and other costs and negatively impact our operations and financial results;
the effects of tax laws in the U.S and potential changes for such laws, which may increase our costs and negatively impact our operations and financial results;
cybersecurity risks;
the effects of privacy and information security laws and standards;
the seasonality of our operations;

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS

(In thousands, except per common share amounts)

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES. This Form 10-Q includes certain financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures typically exclude items that management believes are not reflective of, and thus should not be included when evaluating the performance of our ongoing operations. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate ongoing performance, engage in financial and operational planning, and determine incentive compensation. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information regarding the performance of our ongoing operations and should not be considered as an alternative to the comparable GAAP financial measure. Additionally, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures allow for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in our business and enables investors to evaluate our operations and future prospects in the same manner as management.

The following provides an explanation of each non-GAAP financial measure presented in this Form 10-Q:

Adjusted operating income (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) excluding the items listed below, to the extent naturally included in operating income (loss).

Adjusted net earningsis defined as net earnings attributable to controlling interest excluding the after-tax effect of the excluded items outlined below.

Adjusted EPS - diluted is defined as adjusted net earnings divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the applicable period.

Adjusted EBITDA is the measure by which management evaluates segment performance and overall profitability. Adjusted EBITDA excludes additional items including, but not limited to, those listed below, as well as other items that management believes are not reflective of, and thus should not be included when evaluating the performance of ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation due to its non-cash nature, which is consistent with how management assesses operating performance and determines incentive compensation. At the segment level, adjusted EBITDA includes expense allocations for centralized corporate back-office functions that exist to support the day-to-day business operations. Public company and other governance costs are held at the corporate level within the unallocated corporate and other category.

Adjusted EBITDAmargin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by net sales.

EXCLUSIONS FROM NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Management believes it is useful to exclude the following items from its non-GAAP financial measures for its own and investors' assessment of the business for the reasons identified below. Additionally, management may exclude other items from non-GAAP financial measures that do not occur in the ordinary course of our ongoing business operations and note them in the reconciliation from net earnings to the non-GAAP financial measure adjusted EBITDA.

Impairment charges are excluded because they do not occur in the ordinary course of our ongoing business operations, are inherently unpredictable in timing and amount, and are non-cash, which management believes facilitates the comparison of historical, current and forecasted financial results.
Restructuring activities consist of established programs that are intended to fundamentally change our operations, and as such are excluded from its non-GAAP financial measures. Our restructuring programs may include closing or consolidating production facilities or moving manufacturing of a product to another location, realignment of the management structure of a business unit in response to changing market conditions or general rationalization of headcount. Our restructuring activities generally give rise to employee-related costs, such as severance pay, and facility-related costs, such as exit costs and gains or losses on asset disposals but may include other incremental costs associated with our restructuring activities. Restructuring and other expense, net, may also include other nonrecurring items included in operating income but incremental to our normal business activities. These items are excluded because they are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business.
Loss on partial sale of investment in SES, resulting from the divestiture of our 49% interest in the Composite business of the SES joint venture, is excluded because it does not occur in the normal course of business and is inherently unpredictable in timing and amount.
Unrealized losses on marketable equity securities represent the net impact of unrealized losses resulting from mark-to-market adjustments on our marketable equity securities. We exclude this activity because it is not reflective of ongoing operating activity and does not provide a meaningful evaluation of operating performance.

CONDENSED Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (UNAUDITED)

(In thousands, except common share and per common share amounts)

Note A - Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Worthington Enterprises and its consolidated subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

We own an 80% controlling interest in Halo, which was acquired on February 1, 2024. Halo is consolidated with the equity owned by the other joint venture members shown as "noncontrolling interests" in our consolidated balance sheets, and the other joint venture members' portions of net earnings and OCI are shown as net earnings or comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of earnings and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates that we do not control are accounted for using the equity method with our proportionate share of income or loss recognized within equity income in our consolidated statements of earnings. See further discussion of our unconsolidated affiliates in "Note B - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates."

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature except those which have been disclosed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements for these interim periods, have been included. Operating results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2025 Form 10-K.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Relationship with Worthington Steel

We are party to several agreements with Worthington Steel that govern our ongoing relationship following the Separation, including a Trademark License Agreement, both a short and long-term Transition Services Agreement, and a Steel Supply and Services Agreement. Transactions governed by these agreements are considered related party transactions.

Pursuant to the Steel Supply and Services Agreement, Worthington Steel manufactures and supplies to us, at reasonable market rates, certain flat rolled steel products, and will provide us with certain related support services such as design, engineering/technical services, price risk management, scrap management, steel purchasing, supply chain optimization and product rework services, and other services at our request that are ancillary to the supply of the flat rolled steel products. Purchases from Worthington Steel under the Steel Supply and Services Agreement totaled $31,865and $23,024for the three months ended November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively, and $68,901and $51,455for the six months ended November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively. Accounts payable related to these purchases were $6,580and $9,099as of November 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, respectively.

Activity under all other agreements between Worthington Steel and us related to the Separation was immaterial for the periods presented.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This standard requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including more detailed information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and disaggregated disclosures of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. While adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, it will result in expanded income tax disclosures beginning in the 2026 Form 10-K.

8

Table of Contents

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures," which expands disclosure of significant costs and expenses. This ASU requires expanded disclosures of significant costs and expenditures within cost of goods sold and SG&A, including amounts of inventory purchased, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. This ASU also requires expanded qualitative disclosures, including a description of selling expenses and a description of non-disaggregated expenses. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We expect this ASU to only impact our disclosures with no impact to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software," which modernizes and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing development costs for internal-use software. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Note B - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investments in joint ventures that we do not control, either through majority ownership or otherwise, are unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method. At November 30, 2025, we held investments in the following unconsolidated joint ventures: ClarkDietrich (25%); SES (49%); WAVE (50%); and Workhorse (20%).

On October 16, 2025, we divested our 49% interest in the composite business of the SES joint venture, resulting in a loss of $2,950, recorded in miscellaneous income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of earnings for the three and six months ended November 30, 2025. In exchange for our interest in the divested assets, we received common shares in both Hexagon Composites and Hexagon Purus. Refer to "Note O - Fair Value Measurements" for information regarding the fair value measurement of these common shares.

We received distributions from unconsolidated affiliates totaling$70,702 during the six months ended November 30, 2025. We have received cumulative distributions from WAVE in excess of our investment balance, which resulted in a negative asset balance of $106,363and $103,767at November 30, 2025 and May 31, 2025, respectively. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, we have reclassified the negative balances to distributions in excess of investment in unconsolidated affiliate within our consolidated balance sheets. We will continue to record our equity in the net income of WAVE as a debit to the investment account, and if it becomes positive, it will again be shown as an asset on our consolidated balance sheets. If it becomes probable that any excess distribution may not be returned (upon joint venture liquidation or otherwise), we will immediately recognize any balance classified as a liability as income.

We use the cumulative earnings approach to determine the cash flow presentation of distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures. Distributions received are included in our consolidated statements of cash flows as operating activities unless the cumulative distributions exceed our share of the cumulative equity in the net earnings of the joint venture. In such cases, the excess distributions are considered returns of investment and are classified as investing activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note C - Restructuring and Other Expense, Net

Restructuring activities consist of established programs that are intended to fundamentally change our operations. Our restructuring programs may include closing or consolidating production facilities or moving manufacturing of a product to another location, realignment of the management structure of a business unit in response to changing market conditions or general rationalization of headcount. Our restructuring activities generally give rise to employee-related costs, such as severance pay, and facility-related costs, such as exit costs and gains or losses on asset disposals but may include other incremental operating items associated with our ongoing businesses that are nonrecurring in nature but incremental to our normal business activities.

A progression of the liabilities associated with our restructuring activities, combined with a reconciliation to the restructuring and other expense, net financial statement caption in our consolidated statement of earnings for the six months ended November 30, 2025, is summarized below:

During the six months ended November 30, 2025, other restructuring charges consisted primarily of acquisition-related costs such as advisory, legal, and other professional fees.

The total liability associated with our restructuring activities as of November 30, 2025is expected to be paid in the next 12 months.

Note D - Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

Legal Proceedings

We are defendants in certain legal actions. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these actions, which is not clearly determinable at the present time, would not significantly affect our consolidated financial position or future results of operations. We also believe that environmental issues will not have a material effect on our capital expenditures, consolidated financial position or future results of operations.

Note E - Guarantees

We do not have guarantees that we believe are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

At November 30, 2025, we also had in place $9,204of outstanding stand-by letters of credit issued to third-party service providers. The fair value of these guaranteed instruments, based on premiums paid, was not material and noamounts were drawn against them at November 30, 2025.

Note F - Debt

Our multi-year revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on September 27, 2028. Borrowings under the Credit Facility have maturities of up to one year. We have the option to borrow at rates equal to an applicable margin over the overnight bank funding rate, the prime rate of PNC Bank, National Association or the adjusted daily simple SOFR. The applicable margin is determined by our total leverage ratio. There were noborrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility at November 30, 2025 or May 31, 2025, leaving $500,000available for use.

The statement of earnings classification of amounts reclassified to net income for cash flow hedges is disclosed in "Note N - Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities."

On March 24, 2021, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 5,618,464common shares. During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we repurchased a total of 350,000common shares under this authorization leaving 5,015,000common shares available for repurchase at November 30, 2025.

Common shares may be repurchased from time to time, with consideration given to the market price of the common shares, the nature of other investment opportunities, cash flows from operations, general economic conditions and other relevant considerations. Repurchases may be made on the open market or through privately-negotiated transactions.

Note I - Stock-Based Compensation

Service-Based Restricted Common Shares

During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we granted an aggregate of 103,415service-based restricted common shares under our stock-based compensation plans, which cliff vest three yearsfrom the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair value of these restricted common shares, based on the weighted average closing price of the underlying common shares on the grant date, was $59.09per share, or $6,111in total, and will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-yearvesting period, net of any forfeitures.

Special PSAs

On June 30, 2025, we grantedspecial PSAs covering an aggregate of 92,500common shares (at target levels) to certain members of executive management. Vesting of the awards is subject to time-based restrictions and the achievement of specified levels of ATSR over a three-year service period ending June 30, 2028, in which ATSR must exceed a threshold level in order to be satisfied. The fair value of these market-based restricted common shares was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model that incorporates key assumptions such as the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility and expected dividends. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year vesting period, net of forfeitures, regardless of whether the market condition is satisfied.The estimated grant date fair value of these market-based restricted common shares was $45.39per common share or $4,199in total (at target levels).

The following assumptions were used to determine the grant date fair value for our market-based restricted common shares during the six months ended November 30, 2025.

Expected volatility

38.00

Risk-free interest rate

Performance Shares

Performance shares awarded under our stock-based compensation plans are earned based on the level of achievement with respect to a set of measurement criteria for corporate and business unit targets. The awards generally cover three-year performance periods ending May 31, 2026, 2027, and 2028.

These performance share awards will be paid, to the extent earned, in common shares in the fiscal quarter following the end of the applicable performance period. The fair values of our performance shares are determined by the closing market prices of the underlying common shares at the respective grant dates of the performance shares and the pre-tax stock-based compensation expense is based on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved and our estimate of the number of common shares that will ultimately be issued. The ultimate pre-tax stock-based compensation expense to be recognized over the performance period on all tranches will vary based on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved. During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we granted performance share awards covering an aggregate of 53,130common shares (at target levels). The aggregate grant-date fair value at target for these performance shares is $3,395, which will be recognized over the performance period and adjusted based on our periodic assessment of the probability of achieving the performance targets. The ultimate pre-tax stock-based compensation expense to be recognized over the performance period on all tranches will vary based on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved.

Note J - Income Taxes

Income tax expense for both the six months ended November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024 reflected estimated annual ETRsof 24.1%. Management is required to estimate the annual ETR based upon its forecast of annual pre-tax income for domestic and foreign operations. Our actual ETR for fiscal 2026 could be materially different from the forecasted rate as of November 30, 2025.

Note L - Segment Operations

Our operating segments reflect the way in which internally-reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the CODM to analyze performance, make decisions and allocate resources. We have identified our CEOas our CODM. Our CODM evaluates segment performance on the basis of adjusted EBITDA, as described in the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions" section. Factors used to identify operating segments include the nature of the products provided by each business, the management reporting structure, similarity of economic characteristics and certain quantitative measures, as prescribed by GAAP. Our operations are organized under twooperating segments: Consumer Products and Building Products. Activity outside of our twooperating segments is presented within "Other" and "Unallocated Corporate" as described further below.

Other includes our share of the equity earnings of two of our unconsolidated joint ventures, SES and Workhorse.

Unallocated Corporate includes certain assets and liabilities (e.g. public debt) held at the corporate level as well as general corporate expenses that are not directly attributable to our business operations and are administrative in nature, such as public company and other governance-related costs that benefit the organization as a whole, have not been allocated to our operating segments and are held at the corporate level.

The following tables present summarized financial information for our reportable operating segments, Other, and Unallocated Corporate for the periods indicated. A reconciliation from the GAAP financial measure of earnings (loss) before income taxes to the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted EBITDA is provided directly following the summarized information below.

Note M - Acquisitions

On June 18, 2025, we acquired Elgen, a leading provider of HVAC parts and components, ductwork, and structural framing used primarily in commercial building applications across North America. The purchase price was $91,184, net of cash acquired. Elgenoperates as part of the Building Products operating segment and its results have been included in our consolidated statements of earnings since the date of acquisition. Pro forma results, including the acquired business since the beginning of fiscal 2024, would not be materially different from reported results.

The information included herein is based on the preliminary allocation of the purchase price using estimates of the fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired. The purchase price allocation is subject to further adjustment until all pertinent information regarding the assets acquired is fully evaluated by us, including but not limited to, the fair value accounting.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized at their estimated acquisition-date fair values, with goodwill representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. The purchase price includes the fair values of other assets that were not identifiable, not separately recognizable under GAAP (e.g., assembled workforce) or of immaterial value. The purchase price also includes strategic and synergistic benefits (i.e., investment value) specific to us, which resulted in a purchase price in excess of the fair value of the identifiable net assets. This additional investment value resulted in goodwill, which is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we incurred approximately $1,700acquisition-related costs associated with the Elgen transaction, which are recorded in restructuring and other expense, net in our consolidated statement of earnings.

In connection with the acquisition of Elgen, we identified and valued the following intangible assets:

Note N - Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

We primarily utilize derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to certain risks related to our ongoing operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative financial instruments include interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk. While certain of our derivative financial instruments are designated as hedging instruments, we also enter into derivative financial instruments that are designed to hedge a risk, but are not designated as hedging instruments and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These derivative financial instruments are adjusted to current fair value through earnings at the end of each period.

Interest Rate Risk Management - We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows and the market value of our borrowings. We utilize a mix of debt maturities along with both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage changes in interest rates. In addition, we enter into interest rate swaps to further manage our exposure to interest rate variations related to our borrowings and to lower our overall borrowing costs.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Management- We conduct business in several major international currencies and are, therefore, subject to risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign currency exchange rates change to manage this exposure. Such contracts limit exposure to both favorable and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars also subjects us to exposure related to fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates; however, derivative financial instruments are not used to manage this risk.

Commodity Price Risk Management- We are exposed to changes in the price of certain commodities, including steel, natural gas, copper, zinc, aluminum and other raw materials, and our utility requirements. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with forecasted purchases and sales of these commodities to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage the associated price risk.

We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative financial instruments. Accordingly, we have established and maintain strict counterparty credit guidelines. We have credit support agreements in place with certain counterparties to limit our credit exposure. These agreements require either party to post cash collateral if its cumulative market position exceeds a predefined liability threshold. Amounts posted to the margin accounts accrue interest at market rates and are required to be refunded in the period in which the cumulative market position falls below the required threshold. We do not have significant exposure to any one counterparty and management believes the risk of loss is remote and, in any event, would not be material.

Cash Flow Hedges

We enter into derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in cash flows attributable to interest rate and commodity price fluctuations associated with certain forecasted transactions. These derivative financial instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of the gain or loss on each of these derivative financial instruments is reported as a component of OCI and reclassified into earnings in the same line associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

The estimated amount of net losses recognized in AOCI at November 30, 2025, expected to be reclassified into net earnings within the succeeding 12 months is $82(net of tax of $18). This amount was computed using the fair value of the cash flow hedges at November 30, 2025, and will change before actual reclassification from OCI to net earnings during the fiscal years ending May 31, 2026 and May 31, 2027.

Net Investment Hedges

At November 30, 2025, we designated our Euro-denominated debt held in the U.S. with an initial notional amount of €91,700($99,479) as a non-derivative net investment hedge of our foreign operations in Portugal. The full principal amount is considered fully effective. We did not reclassify any gains or losses related to the net investment hedge from AOCI into earnings during any of the fiscal years presented.

Note O - Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is an exit price concept that assumes an orderly transaction between willing market participants and is required to be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Current accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy as a basis for considering such assumptions and for classifying the inputs used in the valuation methodologies. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair values are as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities (i.e., allowing for situations in which there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date).

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

At November 30, 2025, our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

The fair value of our derivative financial instruments is based on the present value of the expected future cash flows considering the risks involved, including non-performance risk, and using discount rates appropriate for the respective maturities. Market observable, Level 2 inputs are used to determine the present value of the expected future cash flows. Refer to "Note N - Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities" for additional information regarding our use of derivative financial instruments.

Item 2. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Unless otherwise indicated, all Note references contained in this MD&A refer to the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I - Item 1. - Financial Statements" of this Form 10-Q. All amounts are presented in millions except common share and per common share amounts.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis of market and industry trends, business developments, and the results of our operations and financial position should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in "Part I - Item 1. - Financial Statements" of this Form 10-Q. The 2025 Form 10-K includes additional information about our business, operations and consolidated financial position and should be read in conjunction with this Form 10-Q. This MD&A is designed to provide a reader with material information relevant to an assessment of our financial condition and results of operations and to allow investors to view the Company from the perspective of management.

Business Overview

We are a market-leading designer and manufacturer of innovative products and services, including manufactured metal products, organized around attractive end markets under two separate and distinct reportable operating segments: Consumer Productsand Building Products. Our primary goal is to create value for our shareholders. Built on the successful foundation of the Worthington Business System, we apply a disciplined approach to capital deployment and seek to grow earnings by optimizing our operations and supply chain, developing and commercializing innovative products and applications, and pursuing strategic investments and acquisitions.

Our Consumer Products business has a diverse product offering in the tools, outdoor living and celebrations categories, including propane-filled cylinders for torches and related accessories, handheld torches, specialized hand tools and instruments, drywall tools, propane-filled camping cylinders, helium-filled balloon kits, and accessories and gas griddles and pizza ovens sold primarily to mass merchandisers, retailers and distributors. Sales to one customer in Consumer Products accounted for 10.1% of our consolidated net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.

Our Building Products business is a market-leading provider of pressurized containment solutions, providing critical components in essential end markets, such as heating, cooking, cooling and water, and, through our unconsolidated joint ventures, WAVE and ClarkDietrich, ceiling suspension systems and light gauge metal framing products. Our pressurized containment solutions include refrigerant and LPG cylinders, well water and expansion tanks, and other specialty products which are generally sold to gas producers and distributors. Refrigerant gas cylinders are used to hold refrigerant gases for commercial, residential, and automotive air conditioning and refrigeration systems. LPG cylinders hold fuel for residential and light commercial heating systems, barbeque grills and recreational vehicle equipment, industrial forklifts and commercial/residential cooking (the latter, generally outside North America). Well water tanks and expansion tanks are used primarily in the residential market with certain products also sold to commercial markets. Specialty products include a variety of fire suppression tanks, chemical tanks, and foam and adhesive tanks. With the acquisition of Elgen on June 18, 2025, we expanded our portfolio to include HVAC parts and components, further strengthening our position across the end markets we serve.

Activity outside of our two reportable operating segments is presented within Otherand Unallocated Corporate,as described further below.

Other includes our share of the equity earnings of two of our unconsolidated joint ventures, SES and Workhorse and the related investments in these businesses.

Unallocated Corporate includes certain assets and liabilities (e.g., cash and cash equivalents and public debt) held at the corporate level as well as general corporate expenses that are not directly attributable to our business operations and are administrative in nature, such as public company and other governance-related costs that benefit the organization as a whole, have not been allocated to our operating segments and are held at the corporate level.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

Fiscal 2026

On October 16, 2025, we divested our 49% interest in the composite business of our SES joint venture. In exchange for our divested interest in the composite business, we received common shares in both Hexagon Composites and Hexagon Purus. The transaction aligns the core remaining capabilities of the SES joint venture - primarily Type 1 low-pressure, steel cylinder and storage infrastructure applications - with our long-term strategic priorities. Refer to "Note B - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates" and "Note O - Fair Value Measurements" for additional information.

On June 18, 2025, we acquired Elgen, a leading provider of HVAC parts and components. The purchase price was approximately $91.2 million, net of cash acquired. Elgen began operating as part of Building Products in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Refer to "Note M - Acquisitions" for additional information.

Fiscal 2025

On June 3, 2024, we completed the acquisition of Ragasco, a leading global manufacturer of composite propane cylinders based in Norway. The purchase price consisted of cash consideration of $108.6 million, including an earnout that was settled in March 2025. Ragasco began operating as part of Building Products in the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Demand Trends

General Economic Conditions

Demand for our products is closely tied to broader macroeconomic conditions and overall consumer and business sentiment. Shifts in inflation, interest rates, disposable income, and construction activity directly influence purchase behavior, capital investment, and distributor inventory management.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we continued to operate in a softer macroeconomic environment characterized by mixed consumer sentiment and subdued commercial construction activity. Moderate inflationary pressures and tariff uncertainty continue to guide monetary policy with the Federal Reserve maintaining its measured easing cycle, lowering the federal funds target range to 3.50% - 3.75% at its December 2025 meeting for the third consecutive quarter. Despite the Federal Reserve's policy rate reductions, mortgage rates remained historically high. The 30-year fixed rate was 6.23% as of November 30, 2025, creating a pronounced lock-in effect in housing markets, limiting existing home sales and pushing turnover to multi-decade lows. In Building Products, high financing costs constrained new residential construction. Commercial and industrial channels also softened as slower manufacturing output and more conservative capital spending weighed on project pipelines.

This macroeconomic environment is expected to continue weighing on the consumer in the form of reduced discretionary spending and cautious buying patterns, which is anticipated to continue hindering point-of-sale activity. We expect demand to remain uneven as market participants await clearer signals on inflation, interest rates, and broader economic momentum.

Inventory Demand Cycles

Demand for our products is influenced by the inventory management strategies of our retail and distribution partners. Periods of customer destocking, when our customers reduce their own inventories, can lead to lower order volumes, even when consumer sell-through remains steady. Conversely, customers' restocking can temporarily elevate shipments above underlying end-user demand. As a result, shifts in customers' inventory levels can meaningfully impact our reported revenue and margin performance, particularly in Consumer Products, where a large volume of products flow through big box retailers.


Throughout the first six months of fiscal 2026, inventory levels at most key retailer and distributor customers remained aligned with end-consumer demand, and replenishment activity generally mirrored point-of-sale trends, with no material build-up in our distribution or retail channels. Customers maintained a cautious approach in managing tariff-related cost pressures, continuing to trim orders for lower-volume items.

Table of Contents

End Market Trends

We offer a wide range of products and services to a diverse, primarily domestic, customer base across several end markets, including U.S. residential and non-residential construction, repair/remodel, which collectively drive overall demand for Building Products. These end markets also drive demand for many of our consumer products sold in the tools and outdoor living categories. Demand for our remaining consumer products, including helium-filled balloon kits sold into the celebrations category, is generally driven by the general health of the consumer, including the macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions discussed above. We actively monitor the following publicly available economic data and selected key indicators for our major end markets.

Key Indicator

Description

U.S. Residential Construction Spend

Represents total expenditures on residential construction projects, including new builds, renovations, and improvements.

U.S. Non-residential Construction Spend

Measures total spending on commercial, institutional, and industrial construction projects across the country.

Existing Home Sales

Reports the number of previously owned homes sold in a given period, reflecting demand in the housing market.

Authorized Housing Permits

Indicates the number of building permits issued for new housing construction, serving as a leading indicator for future housing starts.

U.S. Private Housing Starts

Measures the number of new residential construction projects that have begun, signaling housing market activity.

HMI

Measures homebuilder sentiment on current and future single-family home sales and buyer traffic.

ABI

A leading economic indicator for non-residential construction, based on monthly billings reported by architecture firms.

DMI

Tracks the value of non-residential building projects in planning stages, serving as a leading indicator for future construction activity.

LIRA

Projects short-term trends in U.S. home improvement and repair spending, serving as a forward-looking gauge of residential remodeling activity.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, conditions across our key end markets were mixed. U.S. residential construction spending remained soft, approximately 5% below prior year levels, while non-residential construction was stable with limited month-to-month momentum. Housing activity showed selective stabilization as existing home sales improved in November 2025, but authorized housing permits and private housing starts declined, indicating a weaker forward pipeline. Builder sentiment remained deeply negative, with the November 2025 HMI at 38, marking the 19th consecutive month below the 50 threshold, and 41% of builders reported cutting prices, the highest level in the post-COVID period. The non-residential outlook was mixed, as the ABI declined to 45.3 in November 2025 from 47.6 in October 2025, remaining below the 49.6 reported in November 2024 and indicating persistent contraction in design billings despite month-to-month variability. The DMI decreased to 276.8 in November 2025, down from 301.4 in August 2025, yet still elevated compared to 191.5 in November 2024, signaling strong yet potentially peaking planning activity. The LIRA continues to project approximately 1.2% growth in homeowner improvement spending through June 2026. Collectively, these indicators point to uneven demand across our key end markets and we expect this trend to continue as we progress through fiscal 2026. Against this backdrop, we are prioritizing disciplined execution, portfolio diversification, and operational efficiency initiatives to mitigate near-term macroeconomic pressures while positioning the business for long-term success and value creation.

Factors Affecting Operating Costs

Raw Materials

Our largest raw material expenditures include cold-rolled and hot-rolled steel, aluminum, propane, propylene, and other industrial gases. Fluctuations in the prices of these inputs have a direct impact on our cost of goods sold and overall financial performance. Our primary raw material and energy inputs are subject to significant price volatility driven by global supply-demand imbalances, tariffs, and other external factors. We manage this risk through a combination of supply contracts, forward purchasing, and selective hedging strategies designed to reduce near-term cost swings and support margin stability.

27

Table of Contents

Steel: Steel is our most significant direct material cost across both Consumer Products and Building Products. During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, hot-rolled steel prices increased from late-summer lows, rising from $834 per ton in August 2025 to $855 per ton in November 2025, driven by firmer order activity and mill-announced price increases. Even with this sequential increase, pricing remains meaningfully below the April 2025 peak of $945 per ton. Cold-rolled steel pricing was more stable, edging down from $1,050 per ton in August 2025 to $1,040 per ton in November 2025, reflecting steady demand in key end markets. Our balanced sourcing strategy, combining firm-price contracts for select inputs with index-based agreements for others, enabled us to effectively manage these pricing trends and support margin stability.

Aluminum: During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, aluminum costs increased to record levels, reflecting both tighter market supply and a June 2025 increase in U.S Section 232 tariffs to 50%, which drove U.S Midwest aluminum premiums to elevated levels. These changes impacted components such as fuel cylinder valves and other aluminum-intensive assemblies. Where possible, we mitigated these increases through forward purchasing and supplier negotiations, but tariff-related cost pressure on aluminum is expected to persist through the remainder of fiscal 2026.

Propane, propylene, and other gases: Propane and propylene costs were generally favorable through the first six months of fiscal 2026, with market prices trending below the prior year period. This trend was driven by strong overall supply levels and softer end-market demand. A portion of our propane and propylene requirements are secured under fixed-price supply agreements, which limited our exposure to spot fluctuations. Costs for helium and other industrial gases declined from the prior year quarter, providing a margin benefit in select consumer-facing product lines, particularly within Consumer Products.

We continue to actively monitor commodity markets and maintain a diversified sourcing strategy to ensure continuity of supply and cost discipline. Our approach to material procurement supports margin stability and helps mitigate the impact of input price volatility on our results.

Seasonality

Historically, net sales tend to be stronger in our fiscal third and fourth quarters for Consumer Products when our facilities perform at seasonal peaks, matching consumer demand. Sales in Building Products are generally stronger in the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year due to weather conditions, customer business cycles, and the timing of renovation and new construction projects.

Quarterly Comparison

Consumer Products- Net sales totaled $119.9 million in the current year quarter, up $3.2 million, or 2.7% over the prior year quarter, as favorable product mix helped to offset modestly lower volume across most of the portfolio.
Building Products- Net sales totaled $207.5 million in the current year quarter, up $50.2 million, or 31.9%, over the prior year quarter, driven by higher overall volume and the addition of Elgen.

Year-to-Date Comparison

Consumer Products- Net sales totaled $238.9 million in the current year period, an increase of $4.6 million, or 2.0%, over the prior year period as higher average selling prices more than offset the impact of lower volume.
Building Products- Net sales totaled $392.3 million in the current year period, up $95.3 million, or 32.1%, over the prior year period, driven by higher overall volume, and the addition of Elgen.

Quarterly Comparison

Gross profit for the current year quarter increased $10.5 million, or 14.2%, over the prior year quarter to $84.6 million, driven by the impact of higher overall volume in the wholly owned businesses of Building Products. These improvements were partially offset by a $2.5 million decline in Consumer Products, driven by higher conversion costs and slightly lower volume. While gross profit was up over the prior year quarter, gross margin declined 120 basis points as mix shifted toward lower-margin value streams and unfavorable conversion costs more than offset higher overall volume.

Year-to-Date Comparison

Gross profit was $166.9 million for the current year period, an increase of $30.3 million, or 22.2% over the prior year period on higher volume in Building Products and contributions from Elgen, partially offset by slightly lower contributions from Consumer Products, down $3.1 million, driven by higher conversion costs and lower overall volume.

Restructuring and other expense, net in the current year quarter and current year period consisted primarily of transaction costs related to acquisitions and divestitures, as well as employee severance. Restructuring activity in the prior year quarter and prior year period was driven by the accelerated vesting of certain outstanding equity awards upon the retirement of our former CEO.

Quarterly Comparison

Equity income decreased $5.5 million from the prior year quarter to $29.1 million, on lower contributions from ClarkDietrich, which were down $5.6 million, driven by the impact of weak non-residential construction activity and pricing pressure, partially offset by higher contributions from WAVE, up $1.7 million.

Year-to-Date Comparison

Equity income was down $4.3 million from the prior year period, driven by lower contributions from ClarkDietrich, as continued pricing pressure and an unfavorable shift in project mix led to lower gross profit.

Quarterly Comparison

Consumer Products - Adjusted EBITDA was relatively flat at $15.3 million, as the impact of favorable product mix was offset by higher conversion costs and slightly lower volume.


Building Products
- Adjusted EBITDA was $53.0 million, an increase of $5.8 million, or 12.3% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to volume growth in the wholly owned businesses, partially offset by lower overall contributions of equity income, driven by a $5.6 million decline at ClarkDietrich.

Other - Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.6 million compared to the prior year quarter, driven by lower equity earnings from the Sustainable Energy Solutions joint venture.

Unallocated Corporate - Unallocated SG&A decreased $0.2 million, or 3.0%, from the prior year quarter, primarily driven by an increase in costs recovered through the Transition Services Agreement with Worthington Steel and lower corporate overhead expenses.

Year-to-Date Comparison

Consumer Products - Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.9 million from the prior year period, as the combined impact of lower volume, higher conversion costs, and unfavorable product mix more than offset the impact of higher average selling prices.


Building Products
- Adjusted EBITDA was $110.8 million in the current year period, an increase of $23.9 million over the prior year period, primarily due to volume growth in the wholly owned businesses. The current year period was negatively impacted by $2.2 million of nonrecurring items related to the Elgen acquisition, reflecting a purchase accounting step up in inventory to fair value.

Other - Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.1 million compared to the prior year period, driven by lower contributions of equity earnings from the SES joint venture and Workhorse.

Unallocated Corporate - Unallocated SG&A decreased $0.9 million, or 6.2%, from the prior year period, primarily driven by lower profit sharing and bonus accruals, as well as an increase in costs recovered through the Transition Services Agreement with Worthington Steel.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we generated $92.6 million of cash from operating activities, invested $25.6 million in property, plant and equipment, and spent approximately $92.0 million to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity interests in Elgen. Additionally, we paid $20.0 million to repurchase 350,000 common shares and paid dividends of $18.2 million on the common shares during the six months ended November 30, 2025.

The following table summarizes our consolidated cash flows for the periods presented:

We believe we have access to adequate resources to meet the needs of our existing businesses for normal operating costs, mandatory capital expenditures, debt redemptions, dividend payments, and working capital, to the extent not funded by cash provided by operating activities, for at least 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. These resources include cash and cash equivalents and unused committed lines of credit under our Credit Facility, which had a total of $500.0 million of borrowing capacity available to be drawn as of November 30, 2025. On December 16, 2025, we signed an agreement to acquire LSI with the transaction expected to close in January 2026. The transaction is expected to be funded primarily with cash on hand, supplemented by modest borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Although we do not currently anticipate a need, we believe that we could access the financial markets to sell long-term debt or equity securities. However, the continuation of uncertain economic conditions, including those caused by a high interest rate environment, could create volatility in the financial markets, which may impact our ability to access capital and the terms under which we can do so.

We routinely monitor current operational requirements, financial market conditions, and credit relationships and we may choose to seek additional capital by issuing new debt and/or equity securities to strengthen our liquidity or capital structure. Should we seek additional capital, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain such additional capital on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and such additional equity or debt financing could dilute the interests of our existing shareholders and/or increase our interest costs. We may also from time to time seek to retire or repurchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases, in open-market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will be upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved in any such transaction may or may not be material.

Operating Activities

Our business is cyclical and cash flows from operating activities may fluctuate during the year and from year to year due to economic and industry conditions. We rely on cash and short-term borrowings to meet cyclical increases in working capital needs. These needs generally arise during periods of increased economic activity or increasing raw material prices, requiring higher levels of inventory and accounts receivable. During economic slowdowns or periods of decreasing raw material costs, working capital needs generally decrease as a result of the reduction of inventories and accounts receivable.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $92.6 million during the six months ended November 30, 2025, up $2.4 million over the prior year period as higher net earnings in the current year quarter was partially offset by an increase in operating working capital requirements (accounts receivable, inventory, and accounts payable) and a $7.1 million decrease in distributions received from unconsolidated affiliates.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Net cash used by investing activities was $117.9 million during the six months ended November 30, 2025 compared to $101.6 million from the prior year period. Net cash used by investing activities during the six months ended November 30, 2025 was driven primarily by cash paid to acquire the outstanding equity interests in Elgen and capital expenditures, including $14.4 million related to ongoing facility modernization projects.

Investment activities are largely discretionary and future investment activities could be reduced significantly, or eliminated, as economic conditions warrant. We assess acquisition opportunities as they arise, and any such opportunities may require additional financing. However, there can be no assurance that any such opportunities will arise, that any such acquisition opportunities will be consummated, or that any additional financing will be available on satisfactory terms if required.

Financing Activities

Net cash used by financing activities was $44.5 million during the six months ended November 30, 2025, compared to $39.0 million in the prior year period. During the six months ended November 30, 2025, we paid $20.0 million to repurchase 350,000 common shares and paid dividends of $18.2 million on the common shares.

Common shares- On December 16, 2025, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per common share payable on March 27, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 13, 2026.

On March 24, 2021, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 5,618,464 common shares. As of November 30, 2025, 5,015,000 common shares remained available for repurchase under this authorization. The common shares may be repurchased under these authorizations from time to time, with consideration given to the market price of the common shares, the nature of other investment opportunities, cash flows from operations, general economic conditions and other relevant considerations. Repurchases may be made on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.

Long-term debt and short-term borrowings- As of November 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the financial covenants of our short-term and long-term debt agreements. Our debt agreements do not include credit rating triggers or material adverse change provisions. There were no outstanding borrowings drawn against the Credit Facility at November 30, 2025, leaving the full borrowing capacity of $500.0 million available for future use.

Table of Contents

Dividend Policy

We currently have no material contractual or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends. Dividends are declared at the discretion of the Board. The Board reviews the dividend quarterly and establishes the dividend rate based upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, current and projected cash flows, business prospects, and other relevant factors. While we have paid a dividend every quarter since becoming a public company in 1968, there is no guarantee that payments of dividends will continue in the future.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements and related disclosure, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to use judgment and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to our valuation of receivables, inventories, intangible assets, accrued liabilities, income and other tax accruals, contingencies and litigation, and business combinations. We base our estimates on historical experience, current trends and other factors that we believe to be relevant and reasonable under the circumstances at the time the estimate was made. These results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Critical accounting estimates are defined as those that reflect our significant judgments and uncertainties that could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Although actual results historically have not deviated significantly from those determined using our estimates, our consolidated financial position or results of operations could be materially different if we were to report under different conditions or to use different assumptions in the application of accounting policies. We believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgments are reasonable in that they were based on information available when the estimates, assumptions and judgments were made. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ materially from those implied by our assumptions and estimates. Our critical accounting estimates have not significantly changed from those discussed in "Part II - Item 7. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates" of the 2025 Form 10-K.

Item 3. - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risks have not materially changed from those disclosed in "Part II - Item 7A. - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" of the 2025 Form 10-K.

Item 4. - Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that Worthington Enterprises files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including Worthington Enterprises' principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management, under the supervision of and with the participation of Worthington Enterprises' principal executive officer and principal financial officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, Worthington Enterprises' principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were designed at the reasonable assurance level and were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-Q in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. - Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various judicial and administrative proceedings, as both plaintiff and defendant, arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that any such proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operation or cash flows.

Item 1A. - Risk Factors

There are certain risks and uncertainties in our business that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. In "PART I - Item 1A. - Risk Factors" of the 2025 Form 10-K, we included a detailed discussion of our risk factors. Our risk factors have not changed significantly from those disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K. Those risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and investments in the common shares and in connection with the forward-looking statements and other information contained in this Form 10-Q. Any of the risks described in the 2025 Form 10-K could materially affect our business, consolidated financial condition or future results and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made. The risk factors described in the 2025 Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition and/or future results.

Item 2. - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

There were no equity securities of Worthington Enterprises sold by Worthington Enterprises during the six months ended November 30, 2025 that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Common shares withheld to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted common shares are treated as common share purchases for purposes of the following table. However, those withheld common shares are not considered common share repurchases under an authorized common share repurchase plan or program. The total number of common shares purchased, as indicated in the table below, include (1) common shares withheld from our employees to satisfy minimum statutory tax withholding obligations arising from the vesting of restricted common shares and (2) common shares repurchased as part of publicly announced plans or programs.
