Adam has been a true partner to Bryan in developing our strategic initiatives and product innovation, which will be an important advantage as he steps into his new role."

Mr. Zambanini, said, "It is an honor to succeed Bryan, someone who has made an impact on me and so many across Trex. As I assume the role as the Company's next CEO, I am energized by the opportunity to partner with our dynamic leaders and continue to drive growth and shareholder value. Trex is the undisputed leader in wood-alternative decking and railing and I am confident that Trex will continue to win in our markets and categories, while building on our strong financial profile."

"After a nearly 23-year career at Trex, including the past six years as CEO, now is the right time to transition leadership to Adam as part of our succession plan," said Mr. Fairbanks. "I have had the opportunity to work with the best talent in our industry and lead our iconic Trex brand that has shaped the decking industry and delivered above market returns for our investors. Having worked closely with Adam for two decades, I have been impressed with his leadership capabilities and his drive for performance. I take pride in what we have built and move on with confidence in Trex's future."

Mr. Cline concluded, "Six years ago, Bryan was announced as CEO and during his tenure he has grown Trex, shown resilience within a challenging industry environment, strategically invested to enhance the Company's future position and built a world-class team of innovators and operators that have consistently delivered for our channel partners and consumers. On behalf of the Board and the Trex team, we owe Bryan our deepest appreciation and thank him for his continued support to ensure this is a seamless transition for all stakeholders."
