Every material Form 8-K JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. has filed with the SEC since October 19, 2026, read and summarized by AI: what happened, the key figures, whether it reads positive or negative for shareholders, and how big a deal it is (impact 1-5). Newest first; each brief links to its own page and to the filing on SEC.gov.
JELD-WEN reported third-quarter 2026 net revenues of $798.5 million, down 1.4% from a year earlier, and a net loss of $17.2 million, or $0.20 per share, versus a $367.6 million loss in the prior-year quarter that included a goodwill impairment. The company kept its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $3.1 to $3.2 billion and Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $120 to $150 million, and said it will retain its European business after a strategic review.
Q3 Adjusted EBITDA rose $10.0 million to $54.4 million, with Adjusted EBITDA margin at 6.8%, up 130 basis points.
Core Revenues fell 1% in the quarter, driven by a 2% decline in volume/mix partly offset by a 1% benefit from price.
Company maintained 2026 guidance and expects 2026 operating cash flow of approximately $10 million.
Management concluded the strategic review of the European business and will retain it, and has commenced transactions to extend debt maturities and raise $135.0 million of incremental liquidity.
On October 28, 2026, JELD-WEN Holding announced that JELD-WEN, Inc. launched an exchange offer and consent solicitation for its $400,000,000 of 4.875% senior notes due 2027, offering new first lien senior secured notes due 2031 and up to $410.2 million of new money. The filing says the deal would remove substantially all restrictive covenants in the old notes and subordinate existing term loans to the new notes, and that the company's forward-looking statements cite risks including its ability to continue as a going concern if the transactions are not completed. For shareholders, the transaction reshapes the company's debt structure on terms that include a higher interest rate and reduced lender protections.
Early Exchange Time is 5:00 p.m. New York time on November 10, 2026; the offer expires November 27, 2026, unless extended.
Early exchange consideration is $1,000 of new notes per $1,000 of old notes for New Money Participants and $880 for all participants; non-participants in the new money offer receive $930.
New notes bear interest at 10.500% per year payable in cash, or 11.500% per year under an alternative structure with at least 9.000% payable in cash.
About 94.5% of old notes and about 72.2% of term loans are held by parties to the commitment letter that supports the transactions.
