With the strategic choices and structural improvements we have made, the new Owens Corning is well-positioned to generate significant value for our customers and shareholders and deliver on our long-term financial targets.”
The New Owens Corning: Built to Outperform

Three Market-Leading Businesses
Through best-in-class execution of The OC Advantage™ playbook, the company’s three market-leading businesses are positioned to deliver on the enterprise strategy and long-term financial commitments. Business segment leadership detailed margin performance goals through 2028 during the event.
Roofing: The Roofing segment raised its long-term adjusted EBITDA margin guide to 30% on average, leveraging its market-leading position, proven contractor engagement model, and high-value branded roofing system to drive demand.
Insulation: The Insulation segment raised its long-term adjusted EBITDA margin guide to 24% on average, supported by structural cost improvements, growing markets, and a flexible and efficient manufacturing network.
Doors: The Doors segment, which was acquired by Owens Corning in 2024, reaffirmed its long-term guide and expects to increase adjusted EBITDA margin to 18% in the next one to three years, with line of sight to 20% or more over the long-term when combined with revenue synergies and improved market conditions. Margin improvement in the business is being driven primarily by cost synergies, which have been increased to $200 million.
Strong Cash Generating Engine Fueling Disciplined Capital Allocation
Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Todd Fister said, “The new Owens Corning is built to outperform. With multiple paths to sustain our strong financial performance, we will help our customers win while creating significant shareholder value. We remain focused on generating strong cash flows – highlighted by our commitment to return $2 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases by the end of 2026.”
Since 2019, Owens Corning has returned more than $3.6 billion in value to shareholders by repurchasing more than 26% of the company’s shares outstanding and consistently increasing cash dividends, including more than doubling the company’s quarterly dividend over the last three years.
