“We are pleased to deliver core revenue growth in all three reporting segments and we are encouraged with the overall demand environment in our markets,” CEO Mark Beck said in a statement.

“Additionally, we delivered another consecutive quarter of earnings growth and margin expansion, while overcoming the impact of operational headwinds in specific product lines. We are enthusiastic about our recent acquisitions, which align to our strategy and are financially accretive.”

Jeld-Wen agreed to acquire the Domoferm Group on Oct. 12 and the Kolder Group on Sept. 1 for undisclosed amounts. The company has completed 10 acquisitions in the past two years.
