Disclaimers Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward Looking Statements — Certain statements herein about our expectations of future events or results constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "could," "should," "expects," "plans," "will," "might," "would," "projects," "currently," "intends," "outlook," "forecasts," "targets," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "continue," or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Such forward-looking statements are based on currently available competitive, financial, and economic data and management’s views and assumptions regarding future events. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and investors must recognize that actual results may differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are subject to risks that could cause them to differ materially from actual results. Certain factors could affect the outcome of the matters described herein. This presentation may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, changes in customer demand for our manufactured solutions, including demand by the construction markets, the industrial markets, and the metal coatings markets. We could also experience additional increases in labor costs, components and raw materials including zinc and natural gas, which are used in our hot-dip galvanizing process, paint used in our coil coating process; supply-chain vendor delays; customer requested delays of our manufactured solutions; delays in additional acquisition opportunities; an increase in our debt leverage and/or interest rates on our debt, of which a significant portion is tied to variable interest rates; availability of experienced management and employees to implement AZZ’s growth strategy; a downturn in market conditions in any industry relating to the manufactured solutions that we provide; economic volatility, including a prolonged economic downturn or macroeconomic conditions such as inflation or changes in the political stability in the United States and other foreign markets in which we operate; tariffs; acts of war or terrorism inside the United States or abroad; and other changes in economic and financial conditions. AZZ has provided additional information regarding risks associated with the business, including in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, in AZZ's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, and other filings with the SEC, available for viewing on AZZ's website at www.azz.com and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. You are urged to consider these factors carefully when evaluating the forward-looking statements herein and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. These statements are based on information as of the date hereof and AZZ assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Non-GAAP – Regulation G Disclosures — In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP"), AZZ has provided EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, Net Leverage, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion which are non-GAAP measures, which should be considered supplemental to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that the presentation of these measures provides investors with a greater transparency comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies, which provides a more complete understanding of AZZ’s financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. Management also believes that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, to assess operating performance and that such measures may highlight trends in the Company’s business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, AZZ's definitions of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. For reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see the appendix to this presentation. 2AZZ Inc. (NYSE: AZZ) | Investor Presentation

R I S K F R A M E W O R K Key Risks — and Why They Are Manageable RISK MITIGANT Construction & residential softness pressures Precoat volumes while interest rates stay elevated. Infrastructure, utility and data-center demand offset weakness; toll model protects margins. Input-cost inflation in zinc, paint, acids and freight. Value-based pricing, the toll-coater structure and FIFO accounting pass through costs and limit commodity exposure. Tariffs and substrate availability make demand harder to predict. AZZ's profile favors quick-turn, small-lot, late-point identification, custom work; import displacement is a net tailwind. Execution risk on the Washington, Missouri plant and bolt-on M&A. 75% take-or-pay contract and a disciplined, proven acquisition playbook de-risk both. 18AZZ Inc. (NYSE: AZZ) | Investor Presentation

Notes for Non-GAAP Disclosure Slides 25 (1) Earnings per share amounts included in the "Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share" table above may not sum due to rounding differences. (2) Includes restructuring charges related to the closure of two surface technology facilities in our AZZ Metal Coatings segment. For additional information, see "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 17" in the Company's Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027. (3) Includes expenses related to the Seattle Galvanizing acquisition. For additional information, see "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 2" in the Company's Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027. (4) For the trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2025, consists of a $6.5 million write off of receivable and related legal fees due to the unfavorable resolution of a litigation matter related to the AIS segment that was retained following the sale of the AIS business, and a $3.5 million legal settlement and accrual related to a non-operating entity, and is classified as “Corporate” in our operating segment disclosure. (5) Related to retention and transition of certain executive management employees. (6) During the trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2025, we recognized additional stock-based compensation expense of $2.2 million upon the adoption of the Executive Retiree Long-term Incentive Program (“ERP”). For further information regarding the adoption of the ERP, see "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 15" in the Company's Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027.

The trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2026 includes the following: an adjustment to decrease a previously recognized gain on the sale of AVAIL’s WSI business, and a prior period adjustment for accounting errors within the Brazil operations of the AVAIL JV, partially offset by a gain on the sale of Rig-A-Lite. The trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2025 includes the net gain related to the sale of AVAIL’s Electrical Products Group, partially offset by the recognition of an impairment loss on the AVAIL JV. For further information related to the AVAIL JV, see "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8" in the Company's Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027. (8) The write-off of $0.6 million of unamortized debt financing costs relates to the refinancing of our Revolving Credit Facility on May 7, 2026, which resulted in a partial extinguishment at the lender level. For further information, see "Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 10" in the Company's Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027. (9) For the trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2026, the non-GAAP effective tax rate is 24.0% for amortization of intangible assets, acquisition costs, and the write-off of debt financing costs, and is 25.9% for the AVAIL JV equity in earnings adjustment. For the trailing twelve months ended August 31, 2025, the non-GAAP effective tax rate is 24.0% for all adjustments.
