Jeff Lorberbaum, chairman and CEO of Mohawk Industries, said the results "reflected benefits from ongoing productivity and restructuring initiatives as well as the impact of favorable currency exchange and lower interest expense, offset by higher input costs and temporary plant shutdowns."
Mohawk identified additional restructuring measures expected to generate about $32 million in annualized savings. Along with previously announced actions, the company expects total savings of $110 million for the year.
The consumer discretionary company projects fourth-quarter adjusted EPS of $1.90 to $2.00, excluding restructuring and one-time charges.
