Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

April 2, 2022

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The January 1, 2022, consolidated balance sheet included in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended April 2, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in HNI Corporation's (the "Corporation") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. Certain reclassifications have been made within the interim financial information to conform to the current presentation.

Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenue from contracts with customers disaggregated by product category is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022		April 3, 2021
Systems and storage	$	207,893	$	182,859
Seating	110,247		101,650
Other	34,966		18,239
Total workplace furnishings	353,106		302,748

Residential building products	219,222		181,545
Net sales	$	572,328	$	484,293

Sales by product category are subject to similar economic factors and market conditions. See “Note 14. Reportable Segment Information” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about operating segments.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

In addition to trade receivables, the Corporation has contract assets consisting of funds paid or payable to certain workplace furnishings dealers in exchange for their multi-year commitment to market and sell the Corporation's products. These contract assets are amortized over the term of the contracts and recognized as a reduction of revenue. The Corporation has contract liabilities consisting of customer deposits and rebate and marketing program liabilities.

Contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022		January 1, 2022
Trade receivables (1)	$	253,075	$	239,955
Contract assets (current) (2)	$	2,182	$	1,471
Contract assets (long-term) (3)	$	29,431	$	18,198
Contract liabilities (4)	$	60,247	$	58,716

The index below indicates the line item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets where contract assets and contract liabilities are reported:

(1) "Receivables"

(2) "Prepaid expenses and other current assets"

(3) "Other Assets"

(4) "Accounts payable and accrued expenses"

The increase in long-term contract assets is related to multi-year distribution agreements in the workplace furnishings segment. Contract liabilities for customer deposits paid to the Corporation prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations are recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligations. The contract liability balance related to customer deposits was $ 27.2 million as of January 1, 2022, of which, $ 17.0 million was recognized as revenue in the first quarter of 2022.

Performance Obligations

The Corporation recognizes revenue for sales of workplace furnishings and residential building products at a point in time following the transfer of control of such products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment of the product. In certain circumstances, transfer of control to the customer does not occur until the goods are received by the customer or upon installation and/or customer acceptance, depending on the terms of the underlying contracts. Contracts typically have a duration of less than one year and normally do not include a significant financing component. Generally, payment is due within 30 days of invoicing.

The Corporation's backlog orders are typically cancellable for a period of time and almost all contracts have an original duration of one year or less. As a result, the Corporation has elected the practical expedient permitted in the revenue accounting standard not to disclose the unsatisfied performance obligation as of period end. The backlog is typically fulfilled within a few months.

Significant Judgments

The amount of consideration the Corporation receives and revenue recognized varies with changes in rebate and marketing program incentives, as well as early pay discounts, offered to customers. The Corporation uses significant judgment throughout the year in estimating the reduction in net sales driven by variable consideration for rebate and marketing programs. Judgments made include expected sales levels and utilization of funds. However, this judgment factor is significantly reduced at the end of each year when sales volumes and the impact to rebate and marketing programs are known and recorded as the programs typically end near the Corporation's fiscal year end.

Note 3. Acquisitions

On October 14, 2021, the Corporation acquired Trinity Hearth & Home ("Trinity"), an installing fireplace distributor in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, for approximately $ 31 million. This transaction, which aligns with the Corporation's vertical integration strategy in the residential building products market and provides a hub to better serve customers in the rapidly growing Southwest region, was structured as an asset acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash.

On December 17, 2021, the Corporation acquired The Outdoor GreatRoom Company ("OGC"), a leading manufacturer and supplier of premium outdoor fire tables and fire pits, for approximately $ 15 million. This transaction, which positions the Corporation to grow and develop a leading position in the fast-growing outdoor living market, was structured as a stock acquisition and was consummated entirely in cash.

The preliminary assets and liabilities of Trinity and OGC are included in the Corporation's residential building products segment, and goodwill, which is expected to be tax deductible, is assigned to the residential building products reporting unit.

The provisional purchase price allocation for Trinity and OGC, and estimated amortization periods of identified intangible assets as of the date of acquisition is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Trinity			OGC
	Fair Value		Amortization Period	Fair Value		Amortization Period
Cash	$	—		$	331
Inventories	1,901			4,460
Receivables	4,604			1,783
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	—			1,247
Property, plant, and equipment	281			520
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	( 1,726 )			( 2,844 )
Goodwill	14,228			2,366
Customer lists	12,000		13 Years	4,900		10 Years
Trade names	—			2,500		10 Years
Total Net Assets	$	31,288		$	15,263

At this time, the provisional purchase price accounting of both acquisitions remains open, and intangible assets and goodwill are recorded based on preliminary assumptions. As a result of further review and refinement, measurement period adjustments were recorded in the first quarter of 2022 which decreased Trinity's inventory acquired by $ 0.2 million and increased goodwill related to both acquisitions by $ 0.9 million in the aggregate. Additionally, the aggregate purchase price of the deals increased by $ 0.8 million as a result of post-closing working capital settlements. The portions of the allocation that are provisional may be adjusted to reflect the finally determined amounts, and those adjustments may be material. The Corporation expects to finalize the purchase price allocation of both of these acquisitions later in 2022.

Both acquisitions were accounted for using the acquisition method pursuant to ASC 805, with goodwill being recorded as a result of the purchase price exceeding the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities.

Note 4. Inventories

The Corporation's residential building products inventories, and a majority of its workplace furnishings inventories, are valued at cost, on the "last-in, first-out" (LIFO) basis. Remaining inventories are generally valued at the lower of cost, on the "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) basis, or net realizable value. Inventories included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted of the following (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022			January 1, 2022

Finished products	$	153,483		$	137,187
Materials and work in process	107,370			91,996
LIFO allowance	( 54,292 )			( 47,592 )
Total inventories, net	$	206,561		$	181,591

Inventory valued by the LIFO costing method	87		%	84		%

In addition to the LIFO allowance, the Corporation recorded inventory allowances of $ 20.0 million and $ 19.9 million as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively, to adjust for excess and obsolete inventory or otherwise reduce FIFO-basis inventory to net realizable value.

Note 5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted of the following (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022		January 1, 2022
Goodwill	$	298,286	$	297,339
Definite-lived intangible assets	142,447		147,627
Indefinite-lived intangible assets	26,484		26,536
Total goodwill and other intangible assets	$	467,217	$	471,502

Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill, by reporting segment, are as follows (in thousands):


	Workplace Furnishings		Residential Building Products		Total
Balance as of January 1, 2022
Goodwill	$	162,266	$	213,842	$	376,108
Accumulated impairment losses	( 78,626 )		( 143 )		( 78,769 )
Net goodwill balance as of January 1, 2022	83,640		213,699		297,339

Capitalized software	$	6,116	$	5,623
Other definite-lived intangibles	$	1,620	$	1,624

The occurrence of events such as acquisitions, dispositions, or impairments may impact future amortization expense. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the following five years is as follows (in millions):


	2022		2023		2024		2025		2026
Amortization expense	$	30.3	$	26.1	$	21.8	$	19.0	$	16.6

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

The Corporation also owns certain intangible assets, which are deemed to have indefinite useful lives because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely. These indefinite-lived intangible assets are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022		January 1, 2022
Trademarks and trade names	$	26,484	$	26,536

The immaterial change in the indefinite-lived intangible assets balances shown above is related to foreign currency translation impacts.

Impairment Analysis

The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Corporation also evaluates long-lived assets (which include definite-lived intangible assets) for impairment if indicators exist.

Note 6. Product Warranties

The Corporation issues certain warranty policies on its workplace furnishings and residential building products that provide for repair or replacement of any covered product or component that fails during normal use because of a defect in design, materials, or workmanship. The duration of warranty policies on the Corporation's products varies based on the type of product. Allowances have been established for the anticipated future costs associated with the Corporation's warranty programs.

A warranty allowance is determined by recording a specific allowance for known warranty issues and an additional allowance for unknown claims expected to be incurred based on historical claims experience. Actual costs incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the allowance. Activity associated with warranty obligations was as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022		April 3, 2021
Balance at beginning of period	$	16,041	$	16,109
Accruals for warranties issued during period	2,704		2,370

Settlements made during the period	( 2,792 )		( 2,192 )
Balance at end of period	$	15,953	$	16,287

The current and long-term portions of the allowance for estimated settlements are included within "Accounts payable and accrued expenses" and "Other Long-Term Liabilities", respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes when these estimated settlements are expected to be paid (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022		January 1, 2022
Current	$	5,354	$	5,442
Long-term	10,599		10,599
Total	$	15,953	$	16,041

Note 7. Debt

Debt is as follows (in thousands):


	April 2, 2022		January 1, 2022
Revolving credit facility with interest at a variable rate (April 2, 2022 - 1.5 %; January 1, 2022 - 1.1 %)	$	141,300	$	75,000
Fixed rate notes due in 2025 with an interest rate of 4.22 %	50,000		50,000
Fixed rate notes due in 2028 with an interest rate of 4.40 %	50,000		50,000
Other amounts	2,165		3,221
Deferred debt issuance costs	( 371 )		( 392 )
Total debt	243,094		177,829
Less: Current maturities of debt	2,165		3,221
Long-term debt	$	240,929	$	174,608

The carrying value of the Corporation's outstanding variable-rate, long-term debt obligations at April 2, 2022, was $ 141 million, which approximated fair value. The fair value of the fixed rate notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow method (Level 2) to be $ 107 million at April 2, 2022.

As of April 2, 2022, the Corporation's revolving credit facility borrowings were under the credit agreement entered into on April 20, 2018, with a scheduled maturity of April 20, 2023. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the credit agreement, which are classified as assets, and is amortizing them over the term of the credit agreement. The debt issuance costs of $ 0.4 million are reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of April 2, 2022, there was $ 141 million outstanding under the $ 450 million revolving credit facility. The entire amount drawn under the revolving credit facility is considered long-term as the Corporation assumes no obligation to repay any of the amounts borrowed in the next twelve months. Based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the Corporation can access the full remaining $ 309 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

In addition to cash flows from operations, the revolving credit facility under the credit agreement is the primary source of daily operating capital for the Corporation and provides additional financial capacity for capital expenditures, repurchases of common stock, and strategic initiatives, such as acquisitions. The Corporation expects to refinance the revolving credit facility prior to its scheduled maturity in April 2023.

In addition to the revolving credit facility, the Corporation also has $ 100 million of borrowings outstanding under private placement note agreements entered into on May 31, 2018. Under the agreements, the Corporation issued $ 50 million of seven-year fixed rate notes with an interest rate of 4.22 percent, due May 31, 2025, and $ 50 million of ten-year fixed rate notes with an interest rate of 4.40 percent, due May 31, 2028. The Corporation deferred the debt issuance costs related to the private placement note agreements, which are classified as a reduction of long-term debt, and is amortizing them over the terms of the private placement note agreements. The deferred debt issuance costs do not reduce the amount owed by the Corporation under the terms of the private placement note agreements. As of April 2, 2022, the deferred debt issuance costs balance of $ 0.4 million related to the private placement note agreements is reflected in "Long-Term Debt" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The credit agreement and private placement notes both contain financial and non-financial covenants. The covenants under both are substantially the same. Non-compliance with covenants under the agreements could prevent the Corporation from being able to access further borrowings, require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding, and/or increase the cost of borrowing.

Covenants require maintenance of financial ratios as of the end of any fiscal quarter, including:

• a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 4.0 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters to (b) the sum of consolidated interest charges; and

• a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not greater than 3.5 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of (a) the quarter-end consolidated funded indebtedness to (b) consolidated EBITDA for the last four fiscal quarters.

The most restrictive of the financial covenants is the consolidated leverage ratio requirement of 3.5 to 1.0. Under the credit agreement, consolidated EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of intangibles, as well as non-cash items that increase or decrease net income. As of April 2, 2022, the Corporation was below the maximum allowable ratio and was in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement. The Corporation expects to remain in compliance with all of the covenants and other restrictions in the credit agreement over the next twelve months.

Note 8. Income Taxes

The Corporation's tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. The following table summarizes the Corporation's income tax provision (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022			April 3, 2021
Income before income taxes	$	18,451		$	20,845
Income taxes	$	4,274		$	5,827
Effective tax rate	23.2		%	28.0		%

The Corporation's effective tax rate was lower in the three months ended April 2, 2022, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the effect of tax benefits of equity-based compensation and the impact of foreign subsidiaries.

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments

For recognition purposes, on a recurring basis, the Corporation is required to measure at fair value its marketable securities, derivative financial instruments, put option liabilities, and deferred stock-based compensation. The marketable securities are comprised of money market funds, government securities, and corporate bonds. When available, the Corporation uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such measurements within Level 1. Where market prices are not available, the Corporation makes use of observable market-based inputs (prices or quotes from published exchanges and indexes) to calculate fair value using the market approach, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. Significant unobservable inputs, which are classified within Level 3, are used in the estimation of the fair value of put options related to private entities, determined using a simulation model based on assumptions including future cash flows, discount rates, and volatility.

Financial instruments measured at fair value were as follows (in thousands):


	Fair value as of measurement date		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)

Interest Rate Swap

In 2019, the Corporation entered into an interest rate swap transaction to hedge $ 75 million of outstanding variable rate revolver borrowings against future interest rate volatility. Under the terms of this interest rate swap, the Corporation pays a fixed rate of 1.42 percent and receives one month LIBOR on a $ 75 million notional value expiring April 2023. As of April 2, 2022, the fair values of the Corporation's interest rate swap asset and liability were $ 0.3 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively; see "Note 9. Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments". The unrecognized change in value of the interest rate swap is reported net of tax as $ 0.2 million in "HNI Corporation Shareholders' Equity" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation

The Corporation measures stock-based compensation expense at grant date, based on the fair value of the award. Forms of awards issued under shareholder approved plans include stock options, restricted stock units based on a service condition ("restricted stock units"), restricted stock units based on both performance and service conditions ("performance stock units"), and shares issued under member stock purchase plans. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units is recognized over the employees' requisite service periods, adjusted for an estimated forfeiture rate for those shares not expected to vest. Additionally, expense related to performance stock units is adjusted for the probability that the Corporation will perform within an established target range of cumulative profitability over a multi-year period.

The following table summarizes expense associated with these plans (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended

Non-vested restricted stock units	$	8,743	1.0
Non-vested performance stock units	$	8,674	1.2

Note 13. Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies

The Corporation utilizes letters of credit and surety bonds in the amount of approximately $ 27 million to back certain insurance policies and payment obligations. Additionally, the Corporation periodically utilizes trade letters of credit and banker's acceptances to guarantee certain payments to overseas suppliers; as of April 2, 2022, there were no outstanding amounts related to these types of guarantees. The letters of credit, bonds, and banker's acceptances reflect fair value as a condition of their underlying purpose and are subject to competitively determined fees.

The Corporation periodically guarantees borrowing arrangements involving certain workplace furnishings dealers and third-party financial institutions. The terms of these guarantees, which range from less than one year to five years , generally require the Corporation to make payments directly to the financial institution in the event that the dealer is unable to repay its borrowings in accordance with the stated terms. The aggregate amount guaranteed by the Corporation in connection with these agreements is approximately $ 11 million as of April 2, 2022. The Corporation has determined the likelihood of making future payments under these guarantees is not probable and therefore no liability has been accrued.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Corporation entered into an agreement to lease a new facility. The lease requires approximately $ 61 million of legally binding minimum payments over the approximate 15 -year term of the agreement. The contractual payments and lease accounting are expected to commence in 2023 when construction of the facility is complete.

The Corporation has contingent liabilities which have arisen in the ordinary course of its business, including liabilities relating to pending litigation, environmental remediation, taxes, and other claims. It is the Corporation's opinion, after consultation with legal counsel, that liabilities, if any, resulting from these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition, cash flows, or on the Corporation's quarterly or annual operating results when resolved in a future period.

Note 14. Reportable Segment Information

Management views the Corporation as two reportable segments based on industries: workplace furnishings and residential building products.

The aggregated workplace furnishings segment manufactures and markets a broad line of commercial and home office furniture which includes panel-based and freestanding furniture systems, seating, storage, tables, and architectural products. The residential building products segment manufactures and markets a full array of gas, wood, electric, and pellet fueled fireplaces, inserts, stoves, facings, and accessories.

For purposes of segment reporting, intercompany sales between segments are not material, and operating profit is income before income taxes exclusive of certain unallocated general corporate expenses. These unallocated general corporate expenses include the net costs of the Corporation's corporate operations. Management views interest income and expense as corporate financing costs and not as a reportable segment cost. In addition, management applies an effective income tax rate to its consolidated income before income taxes so income taxes are not reported or viewed internally on a segment basis. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets applicable to the respective industry segments. Corporate assets consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments, IT infrastructure, and corporate office real estate and related equipment.

No geographic information for revenues from external customers or for long-lived assets is disclosed since the Corporation's primary market and capital investments are concentrated in the United States.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of the Corporation's historical results of operations and of its liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties. See "Forward-Looking Statements" at the end of this section for further information.

Overview

The Corporation has two reportable segments: workplace furnishings and residential building products. The Corporation is a leading global designer and provider of commercial furnishings, and a leading manufacturer and marketer of hearth products. The Corporation utilizes a decentralized business model to deliver value to customers via various brands and selling models. The Corporation is focused on growing its existing businesses while seeking out and developing new opportunities for growth.

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2022 were $572.3 million, an increase of 18.2 percent compared to net sales of $484.3 million in the prior-year quarter. The change was due to a 20.8 percent increase in the residential building products segment and a 16.6 percent increase in the workplace furnishings segment. The acquisition of residential building products companies in 2021 contributed incremental year-over-year sales of $14.0 million.

Net income attributable to the Corporation in the first quarter of 2022 was $14.2 million compared to $15.0 million in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease was driven by lower operational productivity, higher core selling and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), and higher investment spend, partially offset by higher volume.

Operating income	3.6			4.7			-110	bps
Income taxes	0.7			1.2			-50	bps
Net income attributable to HNI Corporation	2.5			3.1			-60	bps

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2022 increased 18.2 percent compared to the same quarter last year. The change was driven by higher volume and price realization in both the residential building products and workplace furnishings segments. Included in the sales results for the current quarter was a $14.0 million favorable impact from acquiring residential building products companies in 2021.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 280 basis points in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by price-cost dilution and lower operational productivity, partially offset by higher volume.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased 170 basis points in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by dilution from price realization along with lower variable compensation, partially offset by higher core SG&A, increased freight costs, and higher investment spend.

Operating Income

In the first quarter of 2022, operating income was $20.4 million, compared to $22.6 million in the same quarter last year. The decrease was driven by lower operational productivity, higher core SG&A, and higher investment spend, partially offset by higher volume.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the first quarter of 2022 was $2.0 million, compared to $1.8 million in the same quarter last year, driven by an increase in the average debt balance year-over-year.

Income Taxes

The Corporation's income tax provision for the first quarter of 2022 was an expense of $4.3 million on income before taxes of $18.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 23.2 percent. For the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation's income tax provision was an expense of $5.8 million on pre-tax income of $20.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 28.0 percent. The decrease was primarily due to the current effect of tax benefits of equity-based compensation and the impact of foreign subsidiaries.

Net Income Attributable to HNI Corporation

Net income attributable to the Corporation was $14.2 million, or $0.33 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $15.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2021.

Workplace Furnishings

The following table presents certain results of operations in the workplace furnishings segment (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022			April 3, 2021			Change
Net sales	$	353,106		$	302,748		16.6	%
Operating loss	$	(6,420)		$	(3,071)		(109.1)	%
Operating loss %	(1.8)		%	(1.0)		%	-80	bps

First quarter 2022 net sales for the workplace furnishings segment increased 16.6 percent compared to the same quarter last year. The results were driven by price realization and volume growth with small- and medium-sized business, contract, and international customers, partially offset by lower eCommerce volume as a result of a previously announced restructuring at one of the Corporation's eCommerce businesses.

Operating loss as a percentage of net sales in the first quarter of 2022 was 80 basis points more unfavorable compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was driven by operational investments, lower operational productivity, and higher core SG&A, partially offset by higher volume and favorable price-cost.

Residential Building Products

The following table presents certain results of operations in the residential building products segment (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022			April 3, 2021			Change
Net sales	$	219,222		$	181,545		20.8	%
Operating profit	$	40,382		$	39,849		1.3	%
Operating profit %	18.4		%	21.9		%	-350	bps

First quarter 2022 net sales for the residential building products segment increased 20.8 percent compared to the same quarter last year, driven by price realization and volume growth in both the new construction and existing home channels. Included in the sales results for the current quarter was a $14.0 million favorable impact from acquiring residential building products companies in 2021.

Operating profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 350 basis points in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter last year, driven by price-cost dilution, higher investment spend, and the impact of acquisitions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, coupled with cash flow from future operations, borrowing capacity under the existing credit agreement, and the ability to access capital markets, are expected to be adequate to fund operations and satisfy cash flow needs for at least the next twelve months. Additionally, based on current earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, the Corporation can access the full $450 million of borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility, which includes the $141 million currently outstanding, and maintain compliance with applicable covenants.

Cash Flow – Operating Activities

Operating activities were a use of $39.0 million of cash in the first three months of 2022 compared to a source of $1.7 million of cash in the first three months of 2021. Current period operating cash flow is reflective of normal seasonal trends including the payout of a significant balance of year-end accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as well as increases in inventory levels as market conditions continue to recover from pandemic-induced disruption over the last several quarters.

Cash Flow – Investing Activities

Capital Expenditures - Capital expenditures, including capitalized software, for the first three months of 2022 were $18.2 million compared to $19.0 million in the same period last year. These expenditures are primarily focused on machinery, equipment, and tooling required to support new products, continuous improvements, and cost savings initiatives in manufacturing processes. Additionally, in support of the Corporation's long-term strategy to create effortless winning experiences for customers, the Corporation continues to invest in technology and digital assets. For the full year 2022, capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $70 to $80 million.

Acquisitions - Investing activities include acquisition spending for residential building products companies. See "Note 3. Acquisitions" in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Cash Flow – Financing Activities

Debt - The Corporation maintains a revolving credit facility as the primary source of committed funding from which the Corporation finances its planned capital expenditures, strategic initiatives, and seasonal working capital needs. Cash flows included in financing activities represent periodic borrowings and repayments under the revolving credit facility. See "Note 7. Debt" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Dividend - The Corporation is committed to maintaining or modestly growing the quarterly dividend. Cash dividends declared and paid per common share were as follows (in dollars):


	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2022		April 3, 2021
Dividends per common share	$	0.310	$	0.305

During the first quarter, the Board declared the regular quarterly cash dividend on February 15, 2022. The dividend was paid on March 7, 2022, to shareholders of record as of February 28, 2022.

Stock Repurchase - The Corporation's capital strategy related to stock repurchase is focused on offsetting the dilutive impact of issuances for various compensation related matters. The Corporation may elect to opportunistically purchase additional shares based on excess cash generation and/or share price considerations. The Board most recently authorized $200 million on February 13, 2019, for repurchases of the Corporation's common stock. As of April 2, 2022, approximately $74 million remained of the Board's current repurchase authorization. See "Note 10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Shareholders' Equity" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Cash Requirements

Various commitments and obligations associated with ongoing business and financing activities will result in cash payments in future periods. A summary of the amounts and estimated timing of these future cash payments was provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022. Except for the item described below, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the Corporation's contractual obligations or the estimated timing of the future cash payments during the first three months of 2022.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Corporation entered into an agreement to lease a new facility. The lease requires approximately $61 million of legally binding minimum payments over the approximate 15-year term of the agreement. The contractual payments and lease accounting are expected to commence in 2023 when construction of the facility is complete.

Commitments and Contingencies

See "Note 13. Guarantees, Commitments, and Contingencies" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon the Consolidated Financial Statements, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on a variety of other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection, and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A summary of the more significant accounting policies requiring the use of estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements is provided in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.

Looking Ahead

The Corporation continues to navigate near-term uncertainty driven by the impacts of the pandemic and recent dynamics around labor availability, supply chain capacity, and cost inflation. However, management believes the Corporation is well positioned to grow revenues, expand margins, and generate cash flows as it moves into the next stage of the recovery. Strength in residential building products is expected to continue, with improving conditions being observed in workplace furnishings.

Management remains optimistic about the long-term prospects in the workplace furnishings and residential building products markets. Management believes the Corporation continues to compete well and remains confident the investments made in the business will continue to generate strong returns for shareholders.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation, the Corporation's management carried out an evaluation of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e).

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in the Corporation's internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

In fourth quarter 2021, the Corporation acquired Trinity and OGC (see Note 3). In conducting its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, management has elected to exclude the acquisitions from the evaluation as of April 2, 2022, as permitted by the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation is currently instituting internal controls over the financial information of Trinity and OGC and anticipates these controls to be implemented by the end of fiscal year 2022.
