ATLANTA — BlueLinx Holdings Inc., a wholesale distributor of building products, reported a net loss of $8.6 million on net sales of 716 million for the fourth quarter.
For the full year, BlueLinx reported net income of $0.2 million on net sales of $3 billion.
“Our fourth quarter and full year 2025 results demonstrated our ability to grow the business across multiple product lines and in key customer channels, despite persistent challenging market conditions,” said Shyam Reddy, president and CEO of BlueLinx. “The results were highlighted by increased sales, higher volumes and solid margin performance in a tough housing market, which clearly shows our ability to gain share and generate positive results when driving targeted sales efforts through a focused profitable growth strategy.”
“Specialty products margins significantly improved from the third quarter of 2025 to a gross margin of 18.1%. Structural products gross margins also improved sequentially to 10.0% for the quarter,” said Kelly Wall, senior vice president, CFO and treasurer of BlueLinx. “During the fourth quarter, we generated $56 million in free cash flow primarily due to our effective inventory management. With strong liquidity and minimal net debt, we remain well-positioned to execute on our strategic investments.”
Based on the first seven weeks of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, BlueLinx said it expects specialty product gross margin to be in the range of 17% to 18%, and structural product gross margin to be in the range of 9% to 10%.
