HNI Corporation (HNI) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

Maximize the $0.75 to $0.80 diluted non-GAAP EPS benefit from KII synergies.

The combined KII acquisition synergies and Mexico facility ramp-up are expected to contribute a total of $0.75 to $0.80 to diluted non-GAAP EPS across the 2025-2026 period. For the full year 2025, HNI Corporation's outlook reflects expectations for mid-teens percent diluted non-GAAP EPS growth. In the first quarter ended March 29, 2025, non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.44, representing a 19% increase year-over-year.

Increase market share in Residential Building Products by focusing on the higher-performing remodel-retrofit channel.

The Residential Building Products segment saw net sales increase by 7.1% year-over-year in Q1 2025, reaching $158.7 million. Within this segment, remodel-retrofit revenue grew by 13% versus the prior year period in Q1 2025. For the third quarter of 2025, remodel/retrofit orders rose 7%. The segment's operating profit margin expanded by 130 basis points to 15.7% in Q1 2025.

Drive volume growth in Workplace Furnishings contract business, where orders were up 15 percent in Q1 2025.

Workplace Furnishings contract orders increased by 15% year-over-year in Q1 2025, excluding hospitality. Total segment orders for Q1 2025 were unchanged year-over-year. By the third quarter of 2025, Workplace Furnishings orders were up 2% year-over-year, again excluding certain orders.

Aggressively cross-sell existing HNI and Steelcase products to the combined customer base upon the Q4 2025 acquisition close.

The acquisition of Steelcase (NYSE: SCS) is expected to close before the end of calendar 2025. Management projected synergies from this acquisition to reach $120 million, ultimately leading to an accretion of $1.20 per share when fully mature, excluding purchase accounting effects.

Use pricing actions to offset tariff-driven pressures, maintaining margin while capturing volume growth.

HNI Corporation expects to offset the majority of any tariff-driven pressures for the full year 2025. Tariff-related cost headwinds were expected to impact Q2 2025 margins by $3 M-$5 M. The Q2 2025 net sales outlook for both segments included the impact of tariff-related pricing actions.

Here's a look at key segment performance metrics from the first quarter of 2025:

The company's focus areas for Market Penetration include:

• Driving full-year 2025 net sales growth expectations of mid-single digit for Workplace Furnishings.
• Anticipating full-year 2025 net sales growth of low-to-mid single digit for Residential Building Products.
• Achieving a non-GAAP operating margin for the full year 2025 that is mostly unchanged versus the year-ago period.
• Realizing Q3 2025 non-GAAP operating margin of 10.8%, which was the highest third quarter level.

The Q1 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.44, up from $0.37 in the prior-year quarter.

HNI Corporation (HNI) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

Accelerate the ramp-up of the Mexico facility to efficiently serve new, lower-cost North American regions. The combined benefit from the Kimball International ("KII") acquisition synergies and the ramp-up of the Mexico facility is expected to contribute a total of $0.75 to $0.80 to diluted non-GAAP Earnings Per Share (EPS) in the 2025-2026 period. For the first half of 2025, these two initiatives contributed approximately $0.24 of EPS benefit. The outlook following Q2 2025 indicated an expected additional contribution of $0.50 to $0.60 of EPS over the next 18 months from these two initiatives.

Target new state and local government customers, a segment that currently drives stronger volume for HNI. Workplace Furnishings contract orders, which include government business, were up 5 percent year-over-year in the second quarter of 2025, excluding hospitality. In the third quarter of 2025, Workplace Furnishings orders were up 2 percent year-over-year, excluding tariff-impacted orders and hospitality.

Expand the wholly-owned installing distributor footprint for Residential Building Products into new US metropolitan areas. This segment saw net sales increase 5.3 percent from the prior-year quarter in Q2 2025. New construction sales grew more than 4 percent year-over-year in Q2 2025, while remodel-retrofit sales grew over 7 percent year-over-year in the same period. Third quarter Residential Building Products orders increased 2 percent compared to the prior year period.

Leverage the combined pro forma net sales base of approximately $5.7 billion to enter new, non-core international markets. The total net sales for HNI Corporation in the third quarter of 2025 were $683.8 million. The non-GAAP diluted EPS for Q3 2025 was $1.10, representing a 7 percent year-over-year increase.

Divest non-strategic international operations, like the HNI India divestiture in Q2 2025, to fund core market expansion. The divestiture of HNI India in the second quarter of 2025 decreased year-over-year sales by $4.5 million in Q2 2025 and by $5.6 million in Q3 2025. The Corporation reduced debt by $120 million during the third quarter of 2025.

Here's a quick look at the segment performance supporting this market development focus:

The key drivers and impacts from recent quarters include:

• Workplace Furnishings segment orders were up 5 percent year-over-year in Q2 2025, excluding hospitality.
• Residential Building Products segment orders increased 2 percent in Q3 2025.
• The Q2 2025 non-GAAP EPS was $1.11, up 41 percent year-over-year.

HNI Corporation (HNI) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

Introduce new electric fireplace models to capitalize on the strong remodel-retrofit demand in Residential Building Products.

Residential Building Products net sales for the third quarter ended September 27, 2025, were $166.9 million. Third Quarter order growth in this segment compared to the third quarter of 2024 was 2%, with remodel-retrofit orders leading the way. In the second quarter of 2025, remodel-retrofit sales grew over 7% year-over-year, outpacing new construction growth of more than 4%. HNI Corporation expects fourth quarter 2025 net sales in Residential Building Products to increase at a high-single digit rate compared to the same period in 2024. The segment operating profit margin for the third quarter of 2025 reached 18.0%.

Launch a new line of office furniture focused on sustainable materials and circular design, aligning with the 2025 CORE strategy.

HNI Corporation has a goal to evaluate 100% of materials and chemical substances in products for human and ecosystem impacts by 2025. As of 2024, the Workplace Furnishings division achieved 80% of material by spend analyzed for this evaluation, while the Residential Building Products division achieved 90%. The company is designing products with the end in mind by increasing recycled content and selecting materials that are more easily recyclable. The expected incremental Earnings Per Share benefit from the ramp-up of the Mexico facility and Kimball International synergies is $0.50 to $0.60 over the next 18 months from the second quarter of 2025.

Develop new, technology-integrated furniture for the accelerating return-to-office trend and Class A building occupancy.

Workplace Furnishings orders in the third quarter of 2025 increased 2% year-over-year, when excluding the impact of orders placed by customers ahead of tariff related price increases and hospitality orders. Contract customers drove better performance than small-to-medium-sized businesses. In the second quarter of 2025, contract orders for Workplace Furnishings were up 5% year-over-year, excluding hospitality. HNI Corporation expects fourth quarter 2025 net sales in Workplace Furnishings to increase at a high single-digit rate year-over-year. The segment non-GAAP operating profit margin in the second quarter of 2025 expanded 120 basis points year-over-year to 13.1%.

Enhance online capabilities and digital tools to better connect with builders and homeowners for hearth product specification.

HNI Corporation is investing in data analytics, digital marketing, eCommerce capabilities, and market coverage to simplify the buying process. Buying office furniture and hearth products can be complicated and time-consuming, and the Corporation is incorporating technology and digital assets to help customers navigate this journey more quickly. The company is broadening its engagement in and influence of the customer buying journey.

Create new, highly-customizable product platforms to serve the large project segment, which often carries higher discounts.

The focus on contract customers in the Workplace Furnishings segment, which includes large projects, shows a growth trajectory. The second quarter 2025 contract orders growth of 5% (excluding hospitality) suggests success in engaging larger accounts. The Corporation has the scale, price point breadth, product depth, and resources to lead in providing solutions for these segments.

Here are some key financial and statistical data points for context:

The Corporation expects to offset the majority of any tariff-driven pressures for the full year 2025.

The Corporation expects double-digit percent Earnings Per Share growth for the full year 2025.

• HNI Corporation's vision includes creating long-term value for all stakeholders.
• The company's guiding principle is constructive discontent, always searching for a better way.
• HNI's headquarters is in Muscatine, Iowa.
• Hearth products include a full array of gas, electric, wood, and pellet-burning fireplaces.
• Workplace Furnishings products are sold through independent dealers, eCommerce retailers, and directly to governments.

HNI Corporation (HNI) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how HNI Corporation can grow outside its current core markets, which is the Diversification quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix. This move is about entering entirely new product/market spaces, which is inherently riskier but offers the highest potential reward. HNI Corporation has a strong financial footing to make these leaps, evidenced by its Q2 2025 performance.

The foundation for this strategy is solid. For the second quarter ended June 28, 2025, HNI Corporation reported total net sales of $667.1 million and net income of $48.2 million. The non-GAAP diluted EPS for that quarter showed a strong year-over-year increase of 41%, hitting $1.11.

Here's a quick look at the segment performance that provides the cash flow for these diversification plays:

The divestiture of HNI India in the first half of 2025, which decreased year-over-year sales by $4.5 million, shows a willingness to prune non-core or underperforming assets to focus capital, which is key before a big diversification push.

Adjacent Market Expansion Leveraging Hearth Expertise

You could acquire a company in the adjacent outdoor living space, building on the existing platform from The Outdoor GreatRoom Company. This leverages existing knowledge in fire and outdoor aesthetics. A target acquisition in the outdoor kitchen or premium grilling space would be a natural fit. The financial flexibility to pursue this is there; gross debt leverage at the end of Q2 2025 stood at 1.4x. This low leverage gives you room to maneuver, unlike the debt load seen before the Kimball International acquisition.

New Sector Investment via Strong Balance Sheet

To enter a non-furniture/non-hearth sector, like Construction Tech, you'd use that strong balance sheet. The recent definitive agreement to acquire Steelcase Inc. for a total consideration of approximately $2.2 billion sets a precedent for the scale of M&A HNI Corporation can execute. While that deal is focused on the workplace, the ability to structure a deal of that size, targeting annual run-rate synergies of $120 million when fully mature, shows the financial muscle for a smaller, strategic Construction Tech venture. Defintely, this signals capacity.

New Product Line Launch in International Markets

Developing a new, non-furniture product line, say commercial storage solutions, and launching it into Europe requires upfront investment against existing margins. For instance, the Workplace Furnishings segment achieved a non-GAAP operating profit margin of 13.1% in Q2 2025. New market entry costs will pressure this initially. You'd need to model the European launch against the historical performance of the divested HNI India business, which resulted in a recognized loss of $5.7 million related to accumulated foreign exchange in the first half of 2025. That's a cautionary tale on international execution.

M&A in High-Growth Residential Segments

The financial flexibility from the 1.4x gross debt leverage in Q2 2025 is ideal for pursuing M&A in a new, high-growth residential segment, perhaps adjacent to the remodel retrofit business which grew over 7% year-over-year in Q2 2025. The company deployed nearly $40 million in stock repurchases during Q2 2025, indicating confidence in capital deployment beyond core operations and dividends.

Establishing a New B2B E-commerce Channel

Establishing a new B2B e-commerce channel for a non-core category, targeting small businesses globally, must learn from past actions. HNI Corporation made the decision to restructure one of its eCommerce businesses, exiting the low-margin portion of that business. This suggests any new e-commerce venture must be structured for high margin from day one, perhaps targeting the Small and Medium Business (SMB) space where Workplace Furnishings orders grew 3% year-over-year in Q2 2025.

• Utilize cash flow from $667.1 million in Q2 2025 sales.
• Target synergies similar to the $120 million expected from the Steelcase combination.
• Ensure margin structure exceeds the 10.2% GAAP consolidated operating margin.
• Avoid repeat of the $5.7 million foreign exchange loss from HNI India divestiture.
