TOPBUILD CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

TopBuild is a Delaware corporation formed on June 30, 2015, and is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.”  We report our business in two segments: Installation and Distribution.  Our Installation segment primarily installs insulation and other building products.  Our Distribution segment primarily sells and distributes insulation and other building products.  Our segments are based on our operating units, for which financial information is regularly evaluated by our corporate operating executives.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2018, our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.  The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017, was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Financial Statement Presentation. Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been developed in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.  All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated.

Business Combinations .  The purchase price for business combinations is allocated to the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, and assumed liabilities, where applicable.  Additionally, we recognize customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, and non-competition agreements as identifiable intangible assets.  These assets are recorded at fair value as of the transaction date.  The fair value of these intangible assets is determined primarily using the income approach and using current industry information.  Goodwill is recorded when consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities.  Measurement-period adjustments are recorded in the period they occur.  Contingent consideration is recorded at fair value at the acquisition date.

Share-based Compensation. Our share-based compensation program currently consists of RSAs and Options.  Share-based compensation expense is reported in selling, general, and administrative expense.  We do not capitalize any compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards.  The income tax benefits and deficiencies associated with share-based awards are reported as a component of income tax expense.  Excess tax benefits and deficiencies are included in cash provided by (used in) operating activities while shares withheld for tax-withholding are reported in financing activities under the caption “Taxes withheld and paid on employees’ equity awards” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.  Award forfeitures are accounted for in the period they occur.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

In May 2014 the FASB issued a new standard for revenue recognition, ASC 606.  Subsequent to issuing ASC 606, the FASB issued a number of updates and technical improvements which do not change the core principles of the guidance.  The purpose of ASC 606 is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability across industries.  Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective approach.  Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations for any periods presented. As such, a cumulative adjustment was not recorded to our beginning retained earnings balance.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is disaggregated between our installation and distribution segments. A reconciliation of disaggregated revenue by segment is included in Note 6 – Segment Information.

We recognize revenue for our Installation segment using the percentage of completion method of accounting with respect to each particular order within a given customer’s contract, based on the amount of material installed at that customer’s location and the associated labor costs, as compared to the total expected cost for the particular order. Revenue is recognized over time as the customer is able to receive and utilize the benefits provided by our services. Each contract contains one or more individual orders, which are based on services delivered. When a contract modification is made, typically the remaining goods or services are considered distinct and we recognize revenue for the modification as a separate performance obligation. When insulation and installation services are bundled in a contract, we combine these items into one performance obligation as the overall promise is to transfer the combined item.

Revenue from our Distribution segment is recognized when title to products and risk of loss transfers to our customers.  This represents the point in time when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the benefits from the product. The determination of when control is deemed transferred depends on the shipping terms that are agreed upon in the contract.

TOPBUILD CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

At time of sale, we record estimated reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings, including special pricing and other volume-based incentives based on historical experience, which is continuously adjusted. The duration of our contracts with customers is relatively short, generally less than a 90-day period, therefore there is not a significant financing component when considering the determination of the transaction price which gets allocated to the individual performance obligations, generally based on standalone selling prices. Additionally, we consider shipping costs charged to a customer as a fulfillment cost rather than a promised service and expense as incurred. Sales taxes, when incurred, are recorded as a liability and excluded from revenue on a net basis.

We record a contract asset when we have satisfied our performance obligation prior to billing and a contract liability generally when a customer payment is received prior to the satisfaction of our performance obligation. The difference between the beginning and ending balances of our contract assets and liabilities primarily results from the timing of our performance and the customer’s payment.

The following table represents our opening and closing balances of contract assets and contract liabilities with customers, in thousands:

Our contract liabilities are normally recognized to net sales in the immediately subsequent reporting period due to the generally short-term nature of our contracts with customers.

In August 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”.  This standard addresses the diversity in practice of how certain cash receipts and payments are classified in the statement of cash flows, including contingent consideration payments made after a business combination which is relevant for us.  This update was effective for us beginning January 1, 2018 and we adopted the standard using a retrospective approach.  There was no impact to any prior periods as contingent consideration payments have not been made.  Future payments, as applicable, will be classified between operating and financing activities as prescribed by the standard.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Clarifying the Definition of a Business.”  The new standard narrows the definition of a business and provides a framework for evaluation.  This update was effective for us beginning January 1, 2018, and we adopted the standard using a prospective approach.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:

In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.”  This standard requires a lessee to recognize most leases on its balance sheet.  Companies are required to use a modified retrospective transition method for all existing leases.  This standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein.  Early adoption is permitted.  We have not yet selected an adoption date, and we are currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this standard on our financial position and results of operations.

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses”.  This guidance introduces a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for the recognition of impairment losses on financial assets, including trade receivables.  The CECL model replaces current GAAP’s incurred loss model.  Under CECL, companies will record an allowance through current earnings for the expected credit loss for the life of the financial asset upon initial recognition of the financial asset.  This update is effective for us at the beginning of 2020 with early adoption permitted at the beginning of 2019.  We have not yet selected an adoption date, and we are currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this standard on our financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.”  The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the goodwill impairment test.  This update is effective for us beginning January 1, 2020.  Early adoption is permitted and the new standard will be applied on a prospective basis.  We have not yet selected an adoption date, and we are currently evaluating the effect of adoption of this standard on our financial position and results of operations.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT

On May 5, 2017, we and the Guarantors entered into a credit agreement with the Lenders.  All obligations under the credit agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors, and all obligations under the credit agreement, including the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the assets of us and the Guarantors.

On March 28, 2018, we executed an amendment to our credit agreement.  The primary change of the amendment is to facilitate the acquisition of USI.  Additionally, the amendment (i) extended until August 29, 2018, the period during which the Company may access the $100.0 million delayed-draw term loan feature and (ii) provides that the Company may issue up to $500.0 million of senior notes in connection with its acquisition of USI.  See Note 15 – Subsequent Events for more information.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Interest payable on borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement is based on an applicable margin rate plus, at our option, either:

·

A base rate determined by reference to the highest of either (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50 percent, (ii) Bank of America’s “prime rate,” or (iii) the LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar deposits with a term of one month, plus 1.00 percent; or

·

A LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for deposits in U.S. dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowings.

The applicable margin rate is determined based on our Secured Leverage Ratio.  In the case of base rate borrowings, the applicable margin rate ranges from 0.00 percent to 1.50 percent and in the case of LIBOR rate borrowings, the applicable margin ranges from 1.00 percent to 2.50 percent.

We are required to pay commitment fees to the Lenders in respect of any unutilized commitments.  The commitment fees range from 0.15 percent to 0.275 percent per annum, depending on our Secured Leverage Ratio.  We must also pay customary fees on outstanding letters of credit.

(b)

We can access $100.0 million through a delayed draw term loan on the Amended Credit Agreement until August 29, 2018.

(c)

Additional borrowing capacity is available under the incremental facility, subject to certain terms and conditions (including existing or new lenders providing commitments in respect of such additional borrowing capacity).

(d)

Use of the sublimits for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans reduces the availability under the Revolving Facility.

Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are prepayable at the Company’s option without premium or penalty.  The Company is required to make prepayments with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales and certain extraordinary receipts.

On March 2, 2018, the company entered into a Master Loan and Security Agreement with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC for the purpose of financing the purchase of vehicles and equipment.  In addition, the company executed equipment notes thereunder in the amount of $10.1 million maturing on March 2, 2023.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness or liens; to make certain investments or loans; to make certain restricted payments; to enter into consolidations, mergers, sales of material assets, and other fundamental changes; to transact with affiliates; to enter into agreements restricting the ability of subsidiaries to incur liens or pay dividends; or to make certain accounting changes.  The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

The Amended Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a Net Leverage Ratio and minimum FCCR throughout the term of the agreement.  The following table sets forth the maximum Net Leverage Ratios and minimum FCCR:

5 . FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value measurement standard defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an “exit price”).  Authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures clarifies that a fair value measurement for a liability should reflect the entity’s non-performance risk.  In addition, a fair value hierarchy is established that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

13


Table of Contents

TOPBUILD CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Fair Value on Recurring Basis

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.  We measure our contingent consideration liabilities related to business combinations at fair value.  For more information see Note 12 – Business Combinations.

Fair Value on Non-Recurring Basis

Fair value measurements were applied to our long-term debt.  The carrying value of our long-term debt approximates the fair market value primarily due to the fact that the non-performance risk of servicing our debt obligations, as reflected in our business and credit risk profile, has not materially changed since we assumed our debt obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement.  In addition, due to the floating-rate nature of our long-term debt, the market value is not subject to variability solely due to changes in the general level of interest rates as is the case with a fixed-rate debt obligation.

During the periods presented, there were no transfers between fair value hierarchical levels.

7 . OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation .  During the first quarter of 2017, we recognized a $30.0 million expense for a legal settlement with Owens Corning in connection with a breach of contract action related to our termination of an insulation supply contract.  Under the terms of the settlement, we paid Owens Corning $30.0 million.  The settlement resulted in the dismissal of the lawsuit filed in May 2016 in Toledo, Ohio.  The settlement is reflected in the significant legal settlement line item within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017.  The settlement is also reflected in our installation segment’s operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

We are subject to certain claims, charges, litigation, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defects, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes, antitrust, and other matters, including class actions.  We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters and we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on us.  However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in any of these pending matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims, or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our liquidity and our results of operations.

Other Matters .  We enter into contracts which include customary indemnities that are standard for the industries in which we operate.  Such indemnities include, among other things, customer claims against builders for issues relating to our products and workmanship.  In conjunction with divestitures and other transactions, we occasionally provide customary indemnities relating to various items including, among others: the enforceability of trademarks; legal and environmental issues; and asset valuations.  We evaluate the probability that we may incur liabilities under these customary indemnities and appropriately record an estimated liability when deemed probable.

We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods.  Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed.  Other types of bonds outstanding were principally license and insurance related.

8 . INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rates were 16.5 percent and 63.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The 2018 rate is lower due to the lower Federal tax rate enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the impact of discrete benefits related to share-based compensation.  The 2017 rate was higher due to a small overall pre-tax loss and the impact of discrete benefits related to share-based compensation and a legal settlement.

Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations recognized a discrete tax benefit of $2.6 million, and $0.8 million related to share-based compensation, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  A discrete benefit of $11.8 million related to a legal settlement was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

9. INCOME (LOSS) PER SHAR E

Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury stock method.

On March 1, 2016, our Board authorized the 2016 Repurchase Program, which expired on February 28, 2017.  We repurchased a total of 788,399 shares for an approximate cost of $26.6 million, or $33.72 per share, under the 2016 Repurchase Plan.

On February 24, 2017, our Board authorized the 2017 Repurchase Program, pursuant to which we may purchase up to $200 million of our common stock.  Share repurchases under the 2017 Repurchase Program may be executed through various means including, without limitation, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise.  The 2017 Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to purchase any shares and expires February 24, 2019.  The 2017 Repurchase Program may be terminated, increased, or decreased by our Board at its discretion at any time.

12.  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

As part of our strategy to supplement our organic growth and expand our access to additional markets and products, we completed two acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2018, and four acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2017.  Each acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.”  Acquisition related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, were $3.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively.  Acquisition costs are included in selling, general, and administrative expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Acquisitions

On January 16, 2017, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Midwest, a heavy commercial fireproofing and insulation company with locations in Chicago, Illinois and Indianapolis, Indiana.  The purchase price of approximately $12.2 million was funded by cash on hand.

On February 27, 2017, we acquired substantially all of the assets of EcoFoam.  EcoFoam is a residential and light commercial insulation installation company with locations in Colorado Springs and Denver, Colorado.  The purchase price of approximately $22.3 million was funded by cash on hand of $20.2 million and contingent consideration of $2.1 million.

As third party or internal valuations are finalized, certain tax aspects of the transaction are completed, and customer post-closing reviews are concluded, adjustments may be made to the fair value of assets acquired, and in some cases total purchase price, through the end of each measurement period, generally one year following the applicable acquisition date.  Various insignificant adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired, and in some cases total purchase price, have been made to certain business combinations since the respective dates of acquisition.

Goodwill to be recognized in connection with these acquisitions is attributable to the synergies expected to be realized and improvements in the businesses after the acquisitions.  All of the $5.7  million of goodwill recorded from the 2018 acquisitions is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Contingent Consideration

The acquisition of EcoFoam includes a contingent consideration arrangement that requires additional consideration to be paid by TopBuild to the sellers of EcoFoam based on certain future revenues of EcoFoam over a three-year period.  The range of the undiscounted amounts TopBuild may be required to pay under the contingent consideration agreement is between zero and $2.5 million.  The fair value of the contingent consideration recognized on the acquisition date of $2.1 million was estimated by applying the income approach using discounted cash flows.  That measure is based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market.  The significant assumption includes a discount rate of 9.5%.

The acquisition of ADO includes a contingent consideration arrangement that requires additional consideration to be paid by TopBuild to the sellers of ADO based on the achievement of certain EBITDA thresholds over a two-year period.  The range of the undiscounted amounts TopBuild may be required to pay under the contingent consideration agreement is between zero and $1.0 million.  The fair value of the contingent consideration recognized on the acquisition date of $0.8 million was estimated by applying the income approach using discounted cash flows.  That measure is based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market.  The significant assumption includes a discount rate of 9.5%.

Contingent consideration is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in accrued liabilities and other liabilities.  Adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration are reflected in selling, general, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are included in the acquisition related costs above.

13.  CLOSURE COSTS

We continually evaluate our national footprint to ensure we are strategically located throughout the U.S. to serve our customers and position ourselves for continued growth.  As a result of this evaluation during the three months ended March 31, 2017, management approved a plan to consolidate certain back-office support operations to our Daytona Beach, Florida, Branch Support Center.

We recognize expenses related to closures and position eliminations at the time of announcement or notification.  Such costs include termination and other severance benefits, lease abandonment costs, and other transition costs.  Closure costs are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as selling, general, and administrative expense.    Accrued closure costs are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as accrued liabilities.  We expect to pay the remaining lease termination and other accrued closure costs within six months.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 1, 2018, we closed on our previously announced acquisition of USI, a leading provider of insulation installation and distributions services to the residential and commercial construction markets, in an all-cash transaction valued at $475 million.  The acquisition was funded through net proceeds from the issuance on April 25, 2018 of $400 million of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2026 together with the net proceeds from a $100 million delayed-draw term loan commitment under our Amended Credit Agreement.  These funds were also used for the payment of related fees and expenses, as well as for general corporate purposes.  The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations”.  During the subsequent measurement period, we expect to receive additional detailed information to com plete the purchase allocation.

A newly-formed wholly owned subsidiary of TopBuild initially issued the Notes on April 25, 2018, and, on May 1, 2018, concurrently with our acquisition of USI, we assumed all of the subsidiary’s obligations under the Senior Notes, and all of our wholly owned subsidiaries guaranteed the Senior Notes on an unsecured senior basis.  The Senior Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and bear interest at 5.625% per annum, which accrues from April 25, 2018, and is payable semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2018. The Senior Notes mature on May 1, 2026 unless earlier redeemed or repurchased.

We have the right to redeem the Senior Notes under certain circumstances specified in the indenture governing the Senior Notes, and, if we undergo a change in control, as specified in the indenture, we must make an offer to repurchase all of the Senior Notes then outstanding at a repurchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to, but not including, the repurchase date.  The indenture contains customary restrictive covenants that, among other things, generally limit our and our subsidiaries’ ability to (i) incur additional debt and issue preferred stock, (ii) create liens, (iii) pay dividends, acquire shares of capital stock, make payments on subordinated debt or make investments, (iv) place limitations on distributions from certain subsidiaries, (v) issue guarantees, (vi) issue or sell the capital stock of certain subsidiaries, (vii) sell assets, (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates and (ix) effect mergers.  The foregoing restrictive covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications, as set forth in the indenture.  The indenture additionally contains customary events of default, subject in certain cases to grace and cure periods. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee under the indenture or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes then outstanding may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all the Senior Notes immediately due and payable.

The Senior Notes and related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, nor are we required to register either the Senior Notes or the guarantees in the future.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

TopBuild, headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is the leading purchaser, installer, and distributor of insulation products to the U.S. construction industry, based on revenue.  We trade on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.”

We operate in two segments:  Installation (TruTeam) and Distribution (Service Partners).  Our Installation segment installs insulation and other building products nationwide through our TruTeam contractor services business, which, as of March 31, 2018, has over 175 branches located in 41 states.  We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, blown-in loose fill cellulose, and polyurethane spray foam.  Additionally, we install other building products including rain gutters, garage doors, fireplaces, shower enclosures, and closet shelving.  We handle every stage of the installation process, including procurement of material from leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.

Our Distribution segment sells and distributes insulation and other building products, including rain gutters, fireplaces, closet shelving, and roofing materials through our Service Partners business, which, as of March 31, 2018, has over 70 branches in 32 states.  Our Service Partners customer base consists of thousands of insulation contractors of all sizes, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.

We believe that having both TruTeam and Service Partners provides us with a number of distinct competitive advantages.  First, the combined buying power of our two business segments, along with our national scale, strengthens our ties to the major manufacturers of insulation and other building products.  This helps to ensure we are buying competitively and ensures the availability of supply to our local branches and distribution centers.   The overall effect is driving efficiencies through our supply chain.  Second, being a leader in both installation and distribution allows us to more effectively reach a broader set of builder customers, regardless of their size or geographic location in the U.S., and leverage housing growth wherever it occurs.  Third, during industry downturns, many insulation contractors who buy directly from manufacturers during industry peaks return to purchasing through distributors.  As a result, this helps to reduce our exposure to cyclical swings in our business.

For additional details pertaining to our operating results by segment see Note 6 – Segment Information in the notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Sales and Operations

Net sales increased 11.3 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018, from the comparable period of 2017.  The increase was principally driven by our six acquisitions completed during 2017, increased organic sales volume, and increased selling prices.  Our sales benefited from the overall continued improvement in the housing market, as well as our continued focus on organically growing our residential and commercial activity.

Our gross profit margins were 22.6 percent and 23.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by higher material costs and higher labor costs primarily related to temporary factors, partially offset by volume leverage, improved selling prices, and lower insurance costs.

Selling, general, and administrative expense, as a percent of sales, exclusive of the significant legal settlement discussed below, was 15.7 percent and 17.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  Decreased selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was a result of overall better absorption of fixed costs, lower bonus expense, lower legal expense, and closure costs incurred in the prior year period that were not replicated in the current year period, partially offset by higher amortization expense and higher acquisition related costs.  We incurred a $30 million legal settlement for the three months ended March 31, 2017, related to the settlement of our previously reported breach of contract action related to our termination of an insulation supply agreement with Owens Corning.

25


Operating margins were 6.9 percent and (0.8) percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The increase in operating margins related to the $30 million legal settlement with Owens Corning incurred in the prior year, as well as overall increased sales volume, improved selling prices, lower bonus expense, lower legal expense, and lower closure and related costs as noted below, partially offset by higher material cost, higher labor costs primarily related to temporary factors, higher amortization expense, and higher acquisition related costs.

Closure and Related Costs

We incurred an expense of $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, related to the consolidation of certain back-office operations to our Daytona Beach, Florida, Branch Support Center.

Sales

Sales in the Installation segment increased $38.5 million, or 13.2 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.  Sales increased 5.3 percent from acquired branches and 2.3 percent due to increased selling prices.  Sales also increased due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction and an increase in sales volume of commercial installation.

26


Operating results

Operating margins in the Installation segment, inclusive of the significant legal settlement, were 8.9 percent and (3.1) percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The increase in operating margins was primarily a result of the $30 million legal settlement with Owens Corning incurred in the prior year, increased sales volume, a 2.3 percent increase in selling prices, absorption of fixed costs, lower legal expense, lower insurance costs, as well as the benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher material cost,  higher labor costs primarily related to temporary factors, and higher amortization expense.

Distribution

Sales

Sales in the Distribution segment increased $17.5 million, or 10.3 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.  Sales increased 5.6 percent due to increased selling prices and 3.1 percent from acquired branches.  Sales also increased due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction.

Operating results

Operating margins in the Distribution segment were 9.5 percent and 9.1 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  Operating margins were positively impacted by higher selling prices, increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction, partially offset by higher material cost.

OTHER ITEMS

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $2.3 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The increase in other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily related to our higher outstanding long-term debt balance related to our debt refinancing completed on May 5, 2017.

Income tax expense (benefit)

Income tax expense was $5.2 million, an ETR of 16.5 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The lower 2018 rate was due to the lower Federal tax rate enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the impact of discrete benefits related to share-based compensation.

Income tax (benefit) was $(3.0) million, an ETR of 63.8 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2017.  The higher 2017 rate was due to a small overall pre-tax loss incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and discrete benefits related to a legal settlement and share-based compensation.

Net sales for the TTM have been adjusted for the pro forma effect of acquired branches

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the prior year period.  The increase was primarily due to a $28.1 million increase in net income, as well as an increase in the generation of cash for prepaid expenses related to the timing of tax payments.  Generators of cash were partially offset by a decrease in the change in accrued liabilities related to the accrual of the $30 million legal settlement with Owens Corning in March 2017.

The increase in working capital as a percentage of TTM net sales as of March 31, 2018, was primarily due to higher commercial activity which has longer collection terms as well as a build up of inventory related to strategic inventory purchases.

Net cash used in investing activities was $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily comprised of $27.0 million for the acquisition of ADO and substantially all of the assets of Santa Rosa and $11.3 million for purchases of property and equipment partially related to our decision to begin purchasing rather than leasing vehicles.  Net cash used in investing activities was $44.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily comprised of $41.2 million for the acquisitions of substantially all of the assets of Midwest, EcoFoam, MR Insulfoam, and Capital, and $3.8 million for purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $0.1 million of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  We received $10.1 million of proceeds from equipment financing notes related to our decision to begin purchasing rather than leasing vehicles.  We used $3.1 million for payments on our term loan, $1.0 million for payment of debt issuance costs related to our Amended Credit Agreement, and $4.5 million for purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting and exercise of share-based incentive awards during the three months ended March 31, 2018.  We drew $55.0 million on our revolving credit facility and made repayments of $55.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018.  Net cash used in financing activities was $24.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, primarily comprised of $17.4 million of repurchases of our common stock related to our 2016 Repurchase Program, $5.0 million of repayments of our term loan, and $1.6 million of purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of share-based incentive awards during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

We have access to liquidity through our cash from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Amended Credit Agreement, which provides for borrowing and/or standby letter of credit issuances of up to $250 million under the Revolving Facility as well as $100 million of additional term loan capacity under a delayed draw feature, which remains available to us until August 29, 2018.  For additional information see Note 4 – Long-Term Debt .  We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and to fund our debt service requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital for at least the next twelve months.  Cash flows are seasonally stronger in the third and fourth quarters as a result of historically increased new construction activity during those periods.

We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods.  Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed.  We also have bonds outstanding for licensing and insurance.

OUTLOOK

In general, the residential and commercial new construction industries are continuing to recover. We believe that household formations and the available housing supply point towards continued growth in new home construction.  Increasing rental demand across multiple markets has led to an increase in multi-family housing construction, and the demand for commercial space is also increasing.  However, residential construction activity remains below historical averages.  We believe a number of factors, including credit availability, student debt, labor availability, and attitudes towards home ownership will continue to cause volatility in the housing market.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We prepare our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018.

APPLICATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Information regarding application of new accounting standards is incorporated by reference from Note 2 – Accounting Policies to our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about future periods, including our future plans and performance, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods.  These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements.  We caution you against unduly relying on any of these forward-looking statements.  Our future performance may be affected by our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial construction; our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; our ability to attract, develop, and retain talented personnel and our sales and labor force; our ability to maintain consistent practices across our locations; and our ability to maintain our competitive position.  We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC.  Our forward-looking statements in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing.  Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of them.  Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our credit agreement became effective on May 5, 2017, which was amended on March 28, 2018.  The Amended Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan facility in the amount of $250.0 million, $100.0 million of additional term loan capacity under a delayed draw feature (which remains available to us until August 29, 2018), and a revolving facility in the amount of $250.0 million.

Interest payable on both the term loan facility and revolving facility is based on a variable interest rate.  As a result, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness.  As of March 31, 2018, we had $240.6 million outstanding under our term loan facility and the applicable interest rate as of such date was 2.90 percent.  Based on our outstanding borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2018, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would result in a $2.3 million increase in our annualized interest expense.  There was no outstanding balance under the revolving facility as of March 31, 2018.

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act).  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) in the most recent fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information set forth in

Part I. Financial Information – Note 7 – Other Commitments and Contingencies under the caption “Litigation” is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in our 2017 Annual Report as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018.

Risks Related to the USI Acquisition

We may not be able to successfully integrate USI and other businesses that we may acquire in the future.

Our ability to successfully implement our business plan and achieve targeted financial results is dependent on our ability to successfully integrate USI and other businesses that we may acquire in the future.  The process of integrating USI, and any other acquired businesses, involves risks.  These risks include, but are not limited to:

·

demands on management related to the increase in the size of our business;

·

diversion of management’s attention from the management of daily operations;

·

difficulties in the assimilation of different corporate cultures and business practices;

·

difficulties in conforming the acquired company’s accounting policies to ours;

·

retaining employees who may be vital to the integration of departments, information technology systems, including accounting systems, technologies, books and records, and procedures, and maintaining uniform standards, such as internal accounting controls, procedures, and policies; and

·

costs and expenses associated with any undisclosed or potential liabilities.

Failure to successfully integrate USI, or any other acquired businesses, may result in reduced levels of revenue, earnings, or operating efficiency than might have been achieved if we had not acquired such businesses.

31


In addition, our acquisition of USI will result, and any future acquisitions could result, in the incurrence of additional debt and related interest expense, contingent liabilities, and amortization expenses related to intangible assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, operating results, and cash flow.

We may not be able to achieve the benefits that we expect to realize as a result of the acquisition of USI.  Failure to achieve such benefits could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to realize anticipated cost savings, revenue enhancements, or other synergies from the USI acquisition, either in the amount or within the time frame that we expect.  In addition, the costs of achieving these benefits may be higher than, and the timing may differ from, what we expect.  Our ability to realize anticipated cost savings, synergies, and revenue enhancements may be affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

·

the use of more cash or other financial resources on integration and implementation activities than we expect;

·

unanticipated increases in expenses unrelated to the USI acquisition, which may offset the expected cost savings and other synergies from the USI acquisition;

·

our ability to eliminate duplicative back office overhead and redundant selling, general, and administrative functions; and

·

our ability to avoid labor disruptions in connection with the integration of USI, particularly in connection with any headcount reduction.

Specifically, while we expect the USI acquisition to create significant opportunities to reduce our combined operating costs, these cost savings reflect estimates and assumptions made by our management, and it is possible that our actual results will not reflect these estimates and assumptions within our anticipated timeframe or at all.

If we fail to realize anticipated cost savings, synergies, or revenue enhancements, our financial results may be adversely affected, and we may not generate the cash flow from operations that we anticipate.

USI may have liabilities that are not known to us.

USI may have liabilities that we failed, or were unable, to discover in the course of performing our due diligence investigations of USI.  We cannot assure you that the indemnification available to us under the acquisition agreement in respect of the USI acquisition or the representation and warranty insurance procured by us in connection with such agreement will be sufficient in amount, scope, or duration to fully offset the possible liabilities associated with USI’s business or property that we will assume upon consummation of the USI acquisition.  We may learn additional information about USI that materially adversely affects us, such as unknown or contingent liabilities and liabilities related to compliance with applicable laws.  Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operation.
