For the full year, the Company generated $668 million of operating cash flow and $475 million of free cash flow, which represents over a 100% cash conversion ratio. In accordance with its opportunistic, returns-based share repurchase program, the Company repurchased $50 million of shares in the fourth quarter, bringing the full year total to $240 million. The Company finished the year with full availability on its revolving credit facility.
As of the end of the fourth quarter 2024:

Share Repurchase Authorization
The Company announced that on February 4, 2025, its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1 billion of shares of the Company's outstanding common stock over the next two years on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise (including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, block trades and accelerated share repurchase transactions), in accordance with applicable securities laws. The new $1 billion share repurchase authorization announced today replaces the existing authorization, which was set to expire on January 29, 2026, and which had $409 million remaining.
The new purchases, if made, will occur from time to time depending on market conditions. The newly announced share repurchase authorization does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of common stock. This authorization is in effect until February 4, 2027, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
2025 Market and Financial Guidance
"Our full-year guidance reflects current market conditions and our expectation for continued acceleration of digital products coupled with R&R softness in the first half of 2025. Our team is navigating near-term challenges while also executing multiple foundational strategic initiatives which we expect will enable the Company to drive market beating growth," said Fortune Brands Chief Financial Officer David Barry. "Our new $1 billion share repurchase authorization shows we continue to have full confidence in our long-term strategy, and the authorization underscores our ability to drive cash flow and working capital initiatives while being mindful of our leverage target."

For certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures (as used in this press release, operating margin before charges / gains on a full Company and segment basis and EPS before charges / gains), the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and / or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans, which are excluded from EPS before charges / gains, and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from operating margin before charges / gains and EPS before charges / gains. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company's accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions.

Operating margin is calculated as the operating income in accordance with GAAP, divided by the GAAP net sales. The operating margin before charges/gains is calculated as the operating income, excluding restructuring and other charges/gains, divided by the GAAP net sales. The operating margin before charges/gains is not a measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to evaluate the returns generated by the Company and its business segments. Management believes that this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information about the Company's underlying performance from period to period.

Additional Information:
For certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures (as used in this press release, operating margin before charges/gains on a full Company and segment basis, EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion), the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, including the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans, which are excluded from our diluted EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion, and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from our operating margin before charges/gains, diluted EPS before charges/gains and cash conversion. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company's accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures are estimated consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions.
