Positive Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

Mueller Industries reported second quarter 2025 net income of $245.9 million, up from $160.2 million a year earlier, and diluted EPS of $2.22 versus $1.41. The results include a $36.3 million pre-tax gain from an insurance claim tied to a March 2023 tornado in Covington, Tennessee; excluding that gain, net income was $217.9 million and diluted EPS was $1.96.

Key points

  • Net sales were $1.14 billion versus $997.7 million, driven by the two businesses acquired in 2024 and higher selling prices tied to raw material costs.
  • Diluted EPS was $2.22 versus $1.41; excluding the insurance gain, it was $1.96.
  • Net cash generated from operations was $190.6 million, and cash net of debt was $1.0 billion at quarter end.
  • The insurance claim is not fully settled, and the company expects additional recoveries to be recorded in the future.
