INTERFACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, as filed with the Commission.
The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The January 3, 2021, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
The six-month period ended July 4, 2021 includes 26 weeks, and the six-month period ended July 5, 2020 includes 27 weeks. The three-month periods ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020 both include 13 weeks.
Risks and Uncertainties
The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic in March 2020, and many companies have experienced disruptions in their operations. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used and determined that, except for the goodwill and intangible asset impairment recorded in the first quarter of 2020 and discussed in Note 10 “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” the decline in revenue for the first six months of 2021 when excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, and its consequent impacts on production volume, operating income, net income, cash flows, and order rates, there were no other material adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations and financial position at July 4, 2021. The Company’s primary credit facility has various financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, a covenant to not exceed a maximum secured net debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined by the credit facility agreement. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit facility agreement and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future. The full extent of the future impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is uncertain. A prolonged COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have a material adverse impact on our operations, financial condition, and supply chains. It may negatively impact our ability to collect outstanding receivables, manage inventory, produce our products and service customers. The impact of COVID-19 could result in additional impairment losses related to goodwill, intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment.
As the virus spreads through communities, it could impact the physical health, mental health, and productivity of our workforce as many of them are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time, and it could also impact our ability to reach our customers and collaborate with them as they are required to shelter in place and work from home for prolonged periods of time. The COVID-19 pandemic is having broad and negative implications on the global economy, which affects the size and timing of our customers’ capital budgets, and could result in delays or terminations of new and existing renovation projects, remodeling projects, new construction projects, and other projects where our products are used.
COVID-19 Impact
We continue to monitor our operations and have implemented various programs to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 on our business including reductions in employee headcount, labor costs, marketing expenses, consulting spend, travel costs, various other costs, and capital expenditures, as well as suspending and reducing shifts in our production facilities, temporarily furloughing employees, and implementing other cost reduction or avoidance initiatives.
Reclassifications
In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company determined that it has two operating and reportable segments – namely Americas (“AMS”) and Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment is unchanged from prior year and continues to include the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas. Segment disclosures for 2020 have been restated to conform to the current reportable segment structure. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 4, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “ Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes .” The amendments in this update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740 related to intraperiod tax allocation, the calculation of income taxes in interim periods, and the accounting for outside basis differences of foreign subsidiaries and equity method investments. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of ASC Topic 740, including franchise or similar taxes partially based on income, the accounting for a step-up in tax basis goodwill, and interim recognition of an enacted change in tax laws or rates, by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, “ Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting .” This standard addresses the risks from the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and provides optional expedients and exceptions to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR if certain criteria are met. This new guidance is effective and may be applied beginning March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue from sales of carpet, modular resilient flooring, rubber flooring, and other flooring-related material was approximately 98 % of total revenue for both six-month periods ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020. The remaining 2 % of revenue was generated from the installation of carpet and other flooring-related material for both 2021 and 2020 six-month periods.
Disaggregation of Revenue
For the six months ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020, revenue from the Company’s customers is broken down by geography as follows:
Six Months Ended
Geography July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020
Americas 51.8 % 56.5 %
Europe 33.6 % 30.4 %
Asia-Pacific 14.6 % 13.1 %
Revenue from the Company’s customers in the Americas corresponds to the AMS operating segment, and the EAAA operating segment includes revenue from the Europe and Asia-Pacific geographies. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information.

-10-

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company computes basic earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, during the period as discussed below. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings.
The Company includes all unvested stock awards which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding in the basic and diluted EPS calculations when the inclusion of these shares would be dilutive. Unvested share-based awards of restricted stock are paid dividends equally with all other shares of common stock. As a result, the Company includes all outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Distributed earnings include common stock dividends and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards. Undistributed earnings represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020 July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020

Distributed and undistributed earnings (loss) available to common shareholders $ 15,319 $ 4,671 $ 22,220 $ ( 97,493 )
Denominator:
Weighted average shares outstanding 58,310 58,024 58,283 58,006
Participating securities 731 460 602 460
Shares for basic earnings per share 59,041 58,484 58,885 58,466
Dilutive effect of stock options
Shares for diluted earnings per share 59,041 58,484 58,885 58,466
Basic earnings (loss) per share $ 0.26 $ 0.08 $ 0.38 $ ( 1.67 )
Diluted earnings (loss) per share $ 0.26 $ 0.08 $ 0.38 $ ( 1.67 )
For the three and six months ended July 5, 2020, there were 20,000 stock options in each respective period excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the impact would be anti-dilutive.

Total long-term debt, net $ 541,395 $ 561,251
(1) Represents the stated rate of interest, without the effect of debt issuance costs or interest rate swaps.
Syndicated Credit Facility
The Syndicated Credit Facility (the “Facility”) provides the Company and certain of its subsidiaries a multicurrency revolving loan and U.S. denominated and multicurrency term loans. Interest on base rate loans is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Interest on Eurocurrency-based loans and fees for letters of credit are charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin over the applicable Eurocurrency rate, depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee per annum (depending on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the most recently completed fiscal quarter) on the unused portion of the Facility.
As of both July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the Company had $ 1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Facility.
As of both July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s borrowings under the Facility approximated its fair value as the Facility bears interest rates that are similar to existing market rates.
Under the Facility, the Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loan borrowings, which are due on the last day of the calendar quarter.
The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the Facility and anticipates that it will remain in compliance with the covenants for the foreseeable future.
5.50% Senior Notes due 2028
The 5.50% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Senior Notes”) bear an interest rate at 5.50 % per annum and mature on December 1, 2028. Interest is paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on June 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its existing Facility.

-12-

As of July 4, 2021, the estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $ 315.1 million, compared with a carrying value recorded in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheet of $ 300.0 million, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs. The fair value of the Senior Notes is derived using quoted prices for similar instruments and is considered Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Other Lines of Credit
Subsidiaries of the Company had an aggregate of the equivalent of $ 6.0 million of other lines of credit available at interest rates ranging from 3.5 % to 6.0 % as of both July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021. As of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under these lines of credit.
Borrowing Costs
Debt issuance costs associated with the Company’s Senior Notes and term loans under the Facility are reflected as a reduction of long-term debt in accordance with applicable accounting standards. As these fees are expensed over the life of the outstanding borrowing, the debt balance will increase by the same amount as the fees that are expensed. As of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the unamortized debt issuance costs recorded as a reduction of long-term debt were $ 8.0 million and $ 8.6 million, respectively.
Other deferred borrowing costs, which include underwriting, legal and other direct costs related to the issuance of revolving debt, net of accumulated amortization, were $ 1.8 million and $ 2.0 million as of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively. These amounts are included in other assets in the Company’s consolidated condensed balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs over the life of the related debt.
-13-

NOTE 6 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Interest Rate Risk Management
From time to time, the Company enters into interest rate swap transactions to fix the variable interest rate on a portion of its term loan borrowing in order to manage a portion of its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company’s objective and strategy with respect to these interest rate swaps is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates by reducing its exposure to variability to cash flows relating to interest payments on a portion of its outstanding debt.
Cash Flow Interest Rate Swaps
In the fourth quarter of 2020 the Company terminated its designated interest rate swap transactions with a total notional value of $ 250 million. Hedge accounting was also discontinued at that time. Losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss for these terminated interest rate swaps are reclassified and recorded in the consolidated condensed statements of operations to the extent it is probable that a portion of the original forecasted transactions related to the portion of the hedged debt repaid will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period. See Note 14 entitled “Items Reclassified From Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss” for additional information.
As of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, the remaining accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with the terminated interest rate swaps was $ 6.5 million and $ 8.7 million, respectively, and will be amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the interest rate swaps prior to termination. We expect that approximately $ 4.0 million related to the terminated interest rate swaps will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an increase to interest expense in the next 12 months.
The following table summarizes the impact that changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges had on accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, during the three and six months ended July 5, 2020:
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
July 5, 2020 July 5, 2020
(in thousands)
Interest rate swap contracts loss $ ( 351 ) $ ( 6,491 )
Derivative Transactions Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Our Asia-Pacific operations, from time to time, purchase foreign currency options to economically hedge inventory purchases denominated in foreign currencies other than their functional currency. The Company’s objective with respect to these foreign currency options is to protect the Company against adverse fluctuations in currency rates by reducing its exposure to variability in cash flows related to payment on inventory purchases. These options are classified as non-designated derivative instruments. Gains and losses on the changes in fair value of these foreign currency options are recognized in earnings each period. As of July 4, 2021, the Company had outstanding foreign currency options with an aggregate notional amount of $ 4.4 million.
The table below sets forth the fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments as of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

Stock Option Awards
In accordance with accounting standards, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide the services – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period) – in exchange for the award. All outstanding stock options vested prior to the end of 2013, and therefore there was no stock option compensation expense in the first six months of 2021 or 2020.
As of July 4, 2021, there were no stock options outstanding and exercisable. There were no stock options granted in the first six months of 2021 or 2020. There were no stock options exercised and no stock options forfeited in the first six months of 2021. There were 7,500 stock options exercised in the first six months of 2020 and no stock option forfeitures during those six months.
Restricted Stock Awards
During the six months ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020, the Company granted restricted stock awards for 428,400 and 308,100 shares of common stock, respectively. Awards of restricted stock (or a portion thereof) vest with respect to each recipient over a one to three-year period from the date of grant, provided the individual remains in the employment or service of the Company as of the vesting date. Additionally, certain awards (or a portion thereof) could vest earlier in the event of a change in control of the Company, or upon involuntary termination without cause.

Performance Share Awards
During the six months ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020, the Company issued awards of performance shares to certain employees. These awards vest based on the achievement of certain performance-based goals over a performance period of one to three years , subject to the employee’s continued employment, and will be settled in shares of our common stock or in cash at the Company’s election. The number of shares that may be issued in settlement of the performance shares to the award recipients may be greater (up to 200 %) or lesser than the nominal award amount depending on actual performance achieved as compared to the performance targets set forth in the awards.

NOTE 8 – LEASES
General
The Company has operating and finance leases for manufacturing equipment, corporate offices, showrooms, distribution facilities, design centers, as well as computer and office equipment. The Company’s leases have terms ranging from 1 to 20 years, some of which may include options to extend the lease term for up to 5 years, and certain leases may include an option to terminate the lease. Our lease accounting may include these options to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
The Company records a right-of-use asset and lease liability for leases extending beyond one year for operating and finance leases once a contract that contains a lease is executed and we have the right to control the use of the leased asset. The right-of-use asset is measured as the present value of the lease obligation. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of the lease liability was the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for the applicable geographical region.
As of July 4, 2021, there were no significant leases that had not commenced as of the end of the second quarter.
The table below represents a summary of the balances recorded in the consolidated condensed balance sheets related to the Company’s leases as of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

Policy Elections
The Company made an accounting policy election not to separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, except for data center assets, and accounts for the lease payments as a single component. The Company also made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. These leases primarily represent month-to-month operating leases for vehicles and office equipment where we were reasonably certain that we would not elect an option to extend the lease.

NOTE 10 – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company determined that it has two operating and reportable segments – namely AMS and EAAA. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” for additional information. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. The Company’s reporting units remain unchanged following the realignment of its segments and consist of Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. The Americas reporting unit is the same as the AMS reportable segment, and the Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units are one level below the EAAA reportable segment.
During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of changes in macroeconomic conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company recognized a charge of $ 121.3 million for the impairment of goodwill and certain intangible assets. As a result of the first quarter 2020 assessment, we determined that the fair value for two reporting units was less than the carrying value and recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $ 116.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. The expected decline in revenue due to the impact of COVID-19 contributed to the lower fair value of our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units. As such, the goodwill impairment loss was allocated to our Europe and Asia-Pacific reporting units in the amounts of $ 99.2 million and $ 17.3 million, respectively. There were no indicators of additional goodwill impairment as of July 4, 2021.
The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill attributable to each reportable segment for the six months ended July 4, 2021 are as follows:
AMS EAAA Total
(in thousands)
Balance, at January 3, 2021 $ 122,344 $ 43,433 $ 165,777

Balance, at July 4, 2021 $ 116,549 $ 41,376 $ 157,925
Additionally, in fiscal year 2020, we determined that the trademarks and trade names intangible assets related to the acquired nora business were also impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $ 4.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The carrying value of intangible assets was $ 82.4 million at July 4, 2021. There were no indicators of additional intangible asset impairment as of the end of the second quarter of 2021.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company determines that an operating segment exists if a component (i) engages in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses, (ii) has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and (iii) has discrete financial information. Additionally, accounting standards require the utilization of a “management approach” to report the financial results of operating segments, which is based on information used by the CODM to assess performance and make operating and resource allocation decisions. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company largely completed its integration of the nora acquisition, and integration of its European and Asia-Pacific commercial areas and determined that it has two operating segments organized by geographical area – namely (a) Americas (“AMS”) and (b) Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment is unchanged from prior year and continues to include the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas.
Pursuant to the management approach discussed above, the Company’s CODM, our chief executive officer, evaluates performance at the AMS and EAAA operating segment levels and makes operating and resource allocation decisions based on segment adjusted operating income or loss (“AOI”), which includes allocations of corporate selling, general and administrative expenses. AOI excludes nora purchase accounting amortization, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, changes in equity award forfeiture accounting, restructuring charges, asset impairment, severance and other charges. Intersegment revenues for the three and six months ended July 4, 2021 were $ 20.6 million and $ 36.3 million, respectively, and intersegment revenues for the three and six months ended July 5, 2020 were $ 21.1 million and $ 40.6 million, respectively. Intersegment revenues are eliminated from net sales presented below since these amounts are not included in the information provided to the CODM.
The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments – AMS and EAAA as each operating segment meets the quantitative thresholds defined in the accounting guidance.
Segment information below for fiscal year 2020 has been restated to reflect our new reportable segment structure.

NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES
The Company determines its provision for income taxes for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate and records any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate in the interim period in which the change occurs, including discrete tax items.
During the six months ended July 4, 2021, the Company recorded a total income tax provision of $ 7.8 million on pre-tax income of $ 30.2 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 25.7 %, as compared to a total income tax provision of $ 4.1 million on a pre-tax loss of $ 93.3 million resulting in an effective tax rate of ( 4.4 )% during the six months ended July 5, 2020. The effective tax rate for the period ended July 5, 2020 was primarily impacted by a non-deductible goodwill impairment. Excluding the impact of the goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate was 17.8 % during the six months ended July 5, 2020. The increase in the effective tax rate as compared to the period ended July 5, 2020, excluding the non-deductible goodwill impairment, was due to the one-time favorable impacts of amending prior year tax returns during the six months ended July 5, 2020 which was offset by favorable changes related to company-owned life insurance in the current period.
In the first six months of 2021, the Company decreased its liability for unrecognized tax benefits by $ 0.7 million. The decrease was primarily due to settlements with taxing authorities and a lapse of applicable statute of limitations. As of July 4, 2021, the Company had accrued approximately $ 10.1 million for unrecognized tax benefits. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company’s deferred tax asset as of July 4, 2021 reflects a reduction for $ 3.0 million of these unrecognized tax benefits.
Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closing of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, it is reasonably possible that approximately $ 1.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits may be recognized within the next 12 months due to a lapse of statute of limitations.

For the six months ended July 4, 2021, the Company recorded a reduction of $ 0.2 million of previously recognized restructuring charges due to changes in expected cash payments. At July 4, 2021, the restructuring reserve was $ 0.3 million. Below is a discussion of the restructuring plan activities under the 2019 restructuring plan.
2019 Restructuring Plan
On December 23, 2019, the Company committed to a new restructuring plan that continues to focus on efforts to improve efficiencies and decrease costs across its worldwide operations, and more closely align its operating structure with its business strategy. The plan involved a reduction of approximately 105 employees and early termination of two office leases. As a result of this plan, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 2019 of approximately $ 9.0 million. The charge was comprised of severance expenses ($ 8.8 million) and lease exit costs ($ 0.2 million).
The restructuring plan was expected to result in cash expenditures of approximately $ 9.0 million for payment of the employee severance and lease exit costs, as described above. The Company expects to complete the restructuring plan in fiscal year 2021 and expects the plan to yield annualized savings of approximately $ 6.0 million. A portion of the annualized savings was realized on the income statement in fiscal year 2020, with the remaining portion of the annualized savings expected to be realized in fiscal year 2021.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, and the virus continues to impact areas where we operate and sell our products and services. The COVID-19 pandemic has had material adverse effects on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. The duration of the pandemic will ultimately determine the extent to which our operations are impacted.
During the second quarter of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic had less of an impact on our overall global operations and financial results as COVID-19 vaccination rates increased, COVID-19 related restrictions loosened, and certain countries began to experience a rebound in economic activity. Our global supply chain and manufacturing experienced increased impacts of COVID-19 in the quarter. These impacts included raw material shortages, raw material cost increases, higher freight costs, shipping delays, and labor shortages - particularly in the United States. These impacts to our supply chain and manufacturing increased our costs and adversely affected our gross margins.
During the second quarter of 2021, consolidated net sales increased 13.6% compared to the same period last year. Higher sales are primarily in the corporate office and retail market segments. During the second quarter of 2021, we began a phased re-opening of our corporate headquarters and global administrative offices and our salesforce and administrative staff are actively working in these locations in accordance with the Company’s ongoing safety measures, as well as any local government orders and directives which remain very fluid.
During the first six months of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our global operations, as consolidated net sales increased 0.1% compared to the same period last year. Net sales for the first six months of 2021 were impacted by lower sales in the corporate office market segment during the first quarter of 2021. During the six months ended July 4, 2021, the Company recorded $0.9 million of net severance costs in connection with its programs to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as discussed above, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.
General
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company largely completed its integration of the nora acquisition, and integration of its European and Asia-Pacific commercial areas and determined that it has two operating and reportable segments - namely Americas (“AMS”) and Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia (collectively “EAAA”). The AMS operating segment is unchanged from prior year and continues to include the United States, Canada and Latin America geographic areas. See Part I, Item 1, Note 11 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q entitled “Segment Information” for additional information. The results of operations discussion below also includes segment information.
During the quarter ended July 4, 2021, consolidated net sales were $294.8 million compared with net sales of $259.5 million in the second quarter last year. During the first six months of 2021, consolidated net sales were $548.0 million compared to $547.7 million in the first six months of last year. Higher net sales during the second quarter of 2021, primarily in the corporate office market segment was due to higher corporate spending and reinvestment. As discussed above, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact the first six months of 2021. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates had a positive impact on net sales of approximately $13.1 million for the second quarter of 2021 and a positive impact of $25.0 million for the first six months of 2021 compared to the second quarter and first six months of last year, respectively, mostly driven by the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Australian dollar and Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.

Goodwill, Intangible Asset and Fixed Asset Impairment
During the first six months of 2021, there were no indicators of goodwill or intangible asset impairment. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a charge of $121.3 million for the impairment of goodwill and certain intangible assets. See Note 10 entitled “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Consolidated net sales $ 294,785 $ 259,504 13.6 % $ 548,045 $ 547,673 0.1 %
For the quarter ended July 4, 2021, consolidated net sales increased $35.3 million (13.6%) versus the comparable period in 2020, including positive currency fluctuations of approximately $13.1 million (5.1%). The sales increase was primarily due to higher net sales in the corporate, retail, healthcare, education and transportation market segments. Currency fluctuations had a positive impact on second quarter 2021 sales compared to the second quarter of 2020 mostly due to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Australian dollar and Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.
For the six months ended July 4, 2021, consolidated net sales increased $0.4 million (0.1%) versus the comparable period in 2020, including positive currency fluctuations of approximately $25.0 million (4.6%). The sales increase was primarily due to higher sales in the retail and transportation market segments partially offset by decreases in the hospitality and corporate market segments. Currency fluctuations had a positive impact on the first six months of 2021 sales compared to the same period last year mostly due to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Australian dollar and Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar.

Selling, general and administrative expenses 79,830 80,058 (0.3) % 159,132 167,741 (5.1) %
For the quarter ended July 4, 2021, consolidated cost of sales increased $23.6 million (14.5%) compared to the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to higher net sales and the negative impact of currency fluctuations of approximately $8.8 million (5.4%) on the year-over-year comparison. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales increased to 63.0% for the second quarter of 2021 versus 62.5% for the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to price increases for certain raw materials.
For the six months ended July 4, 2021, consolidated cost of sales increased $6.9 million (2.1%) versus the comparable period in 2020, primarily due to higher net sales and the negative impact of currency fluctuations of approximately $16.4 million (4.9%) on the year-over-year comparison. As a percentage of net sales, our cost of sales increased to 62.6% for the first six months of 2021 versus 61.4% for the first six months of 2020, primarily due to price increases for certain raw materials.
For the quarter ended July 4, 2021, consolidated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $0.2 million (0.3%) versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency translation had a $2.9 million (3.6%) negative impact on the year-over-year comparison. SG&A expenses were lower for the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to (1) lower asset impairment and exit activity costs of $5.0 million compared to the prior year period as fiscal 2020 included one-time costs to exit certain FLOR design center locations and (2) lower severance costs of $3.5 million due to employee separations in the prior year period to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19. These decreases were partially offset by higher labor costs in the second quarter of 2021 as performance-based compensation costs were lower in the prior year period due to the impacts of COVID-19. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 27.1% for the second quarter of 2021 versus 30.9% for the second quarter of 2020.
For the six months ended July 4, 2021, consolidated SG&A expenses decreased $8.6 million (5.1%) versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency translation had a $5.7 million (3.4%) negative impact on the year-over-year comparison. SG&A expenses were lower for the first six months of 2021 primarily due to (1) lower asset impairment and exit activity costs of $4.7 million compared to the prior year period as fiscal 2020 included one-time costs to exit certain FLOR design center locations, (2) lower severance costs of $2.0 million due to the prior year period impacts of COVID-19 as discussed above, and (3) lower professional fees of $4.2 million and lower marketing and other one-time costs of $2.7 million. These decreases were partially offset by higher performance-based compensation as these costs were lower in the prior year period due to the impacts of COVID-19. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 29.0% for the first six months of 2021 versus 30.6% for the first six months of 2020.
Interest Expense
For the quarter ended July 4, 2021, interest expense increased $2.3 million, from $5.0 million in the comparable period last year to $7.3 million. For the six months ended July 4, 2021, interest expense increased $3.9 million, from $10.6 million in the comparable period last year to $14.5 million. The increase in both the three and six months ended July 4, 2021 was primarily due to higher fixed-rate interest expense on the senior notes debt, which replaced variable-rate debt under the credit facility, and deferred losses on terminated interest rate swaps that were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense during the respective periods.
Other Expense
Other expenses decreased $4.5 million and $5.3 million during the three and six months ended July 4, 2021, respectively, compared to 2020 primarily due to a $4.2 million write-down of damaged raw material inventory in 2020, which resulted from a fire at a leased storage facility.

Segment Operating Results
As discussed above, the Company has two operating and reportable segments – AMS and EAAA. Segment information presented below for fiscal year 2020 has been restated to conform to the new reportable segment structure.
AMS Segment - Net Sales and Adjusted Operating Income (“AOI”)
The following table presents AMS segment net sales and AOI for the three and six month periods ended July 4, 2021, and July 5, 2020:
Three Months Ended Percentage Change Six Months Ended Percentage Change
July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020 July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020
(in thousands) (in thousands)
AMS segment net sales $ 156,665 $ 151,222 3.6 % $ 283,632 $ 309,313 (8.3) %
AMS segment AOI (1)
21,098 23,942 (11.9) % 33,011 47,492 (30.5) %
(1) Includes allocation of corporate SG&A expenses. Excludes non-recurring items related to goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, purchase accounting amortization, restructuring, asset impairment, severance and other costs. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” of Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
During the second quarter of 2021, net sales in AMS increased 3.6% versus the comparable period in 2020 primarily due to higher sales in the retail, healthcare and transportation market segments, partially offset by decreases in the hospitality and public buildings market segments.
During the first six months of 2021, net sales in AMS decreased 8.3% versus the comparable period in 2020 primarily due to the continued impacts of COVID-19. On a market segment basis, the AMS sales decrease was most significant in the corporate, public buildings and hospitality market segments, partially offset by increases in the retail, transportation and consumer residential market segments.
AOI in AMS decreased 11.9% during the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher raw material costs, higher freight costs and higher overtime costs compared to prior year. Higher SG&A costs due to higher performance-based compensation also contributed to the decrease in AOI.
AOI in AMS decreased 30.5% during the first six months of 2021 primarily due to lower net sales as discussed above. Lower profit margins due to lower fixed cost leverage in the plant, higher raw material costs, higher freight costs and higher overtime costs as well as higher performance-based compensation also contributed to the decrease in AOI compared to the prior year period.
EAAA Segment - Net Sales and AOI
The following table presents EAAA segment net sales and AOI for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2021, and July 5, 2020:
Three Months Ended Percentage Change Six Months Ended Percentage Change
July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020 July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020
(in thousands) (in thousands)
EAAA segment net sales $ 138,120 $ 108,282 27.6 % $ 264,413 $ 238,360 10.9 %
EAAA segment AOI (1)
9,960 3,530 182.2 % 17,971 9,330 92.6 %
(1) Includes allocation of corporate SG&A expenses. Excludes non-recurring items related to goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, purchase accounting amortization, restructuring, asset impairment, severance and other costs. See Note 11 entitled “Segment Information” of Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.
During the second quarter of 2021, net sales in EAAA increased 27.6% versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $12.2 million (11.3%) positive impact on EAAA’s second quarter 2021 sales compared to 2020 due to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Australian dollar and the Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. On a market segment basis, the EAAA sales increase was most significant in the corporate, retail, education and public buildings market segments.
-33-

During the first six months of 2021, net sales in EAAA increased 10.9% versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $23.6 million (9.9%) positive impact on EAAA’s first six months of 2021 sales compared to 2020 due to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound sterling, Australian dollar and the Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. On a market segment basis, the EAAA sales increase was most significant in the public buildings, retail and education market segments.
AOI in EAAA increased 182.2% during the second quarter of 2021 versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $1.4 million (12.2%) positive impact on AOI for the quarter. The impact of higher net sales and higher gross profit margins contributed to the increase in AOI.
AOI in EAAA increased 92.6% during the first six months of 2021 versus the comparable period in 2020. Currency fluctuations had an approximately $3.0 million (12.8%) positive impact on AOI for the six-month period of 2021. The impact of higher net sales and higher gross profit margins partially offset by higher SG&A expenses, comprised of higher performance-based compensation and lower government wage support programs, contributed to the increase in AOI.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
At July 4, 2021, we had $102.4 million in cash. At that date, we had $264.6 million in term loan borrowing, no revolving loan borrowings, and $1.6 million in letters of credit outstanding under our Syndicated Credit Facility, and we had $300.0 million of Senior Notes outstanding. As of July 4, 2021, we had additional borrowing capacity of $298.4 million under the Syndicated Credit Facility and $6.0 million of borrowing capacity under other credit facilities in place at other non-U.S. subsidiaries. We anticipate that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for the next 12 months.
The Senior Notes are unsecured and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, all of which also guarantee the obligations of the Company under its existing Facility. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries and certain non-material domestic subsidiaries are considered non-guarantors. Net sales for the non-guarantor subsidiaries were approximately $148 million and $284 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 4, 2021, respectively. Total indebtedness of the non-guarantor subsidiaries was approximately $65 million and $88 million as of July 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively.
Analysis of Cash Flows
The following table presents a summary of cash flows for the six-month periods ended July 4, 2021 and July 5, 2020, respectively:
Six Months Ended
July 4, 2021 July 5, 2020
(in thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities $ 35,118 $ 32,427
Investing activities (12,112) (35,694)
Financing activities (21,319) 15,624
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash (2,368) (1,814)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents (681) 10,543
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period 103,053 81,301
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period $ 102,372 $ 91,844
Cash provided by operating activities was $35.1 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, which represents an increase of $2.7 million from the prior year comparable period. The increase was primarily due to variable compensation payouts in 2021 related to 2020 performance that were greatly reduced versus the payouts that occurred in 2020 related to 2019 performance. The lower variable compensation payouts in 2021 were offset by a greater use of cash from working capital. Specifically, increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses that contributed positively to the change in working capital were offset by higher inventories and higher prepaid expenses attributable primarily to a build-up of inventory due to increased customer demand. Increases in accounts receivable as a result of higher net sales also contributed to the change in working capital during the year.
Cash used in investing activities was $12.1 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, which represents a decrease of $23.6 million from the prior year comparable period. The decrease from the comparable period was primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures due to reduced capital investment as a result of the impacts of COVID-19.
Cash used in financing activities was $21.3 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, which represents a decrease of $36.9 million compared with cash provided by financing activities in the prior year comparable period. Financing activities for 2021 include lower revolving loan borrowings offset by higher repayments of term loan and revolving loan debt. Lower dividend payments in 2021 compared with the prior year comparable period also contributed to the change.

Forward-Looking Statement on Impact of COVID-19
While we are aggressively managing our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, its impacts on our full year fiscal 2021 results and beyond are uncertain. We believe the most significant elements of uncertainty are (1) the intensity and duration of the impact on construction, renovation, and remodeling; (2) corporate, government, and consumer spending levels and sentiment including but not limited to when and how employees will be required to work from their office versus working from home; (3) new and renewed government mandated lockdowns, quarantine and other procedures in response to resurgences of COVID-19 cases and variants of the virus; and (4) the ability of our sales channels, supply chain, manufacturing, suppliers, freight providers and distribution partners to continue operating through disruptions. Any or all of these factors could negatively impact our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and outlook.

We anticipate revenue growth in the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 compared with the third quarter of 2020. We are also anticipating continued impacts to our global supply chain and manufacturing operations. These impacts are anticipated to include significant cost increases in our raw materials globally and continued labor shortages – particularly in the United States. The impacts may also potentially include raw material shortages, higher freight costs, shipping delays, and other disruption. These impacts to our supply chain and manufacturing will increase our costs and adversely affect our gross margins, they may inhibit our ability to manufacture and ship product timely, and at times they may inhibit our ability to meet customer demands and expectations.

We also plan to continue evaluating our cost structure and global manufacturing footprint to identify and activate opportunities to decrease costs and optimize our global cost structure.
Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and other sources of liquidity are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements. However, the Company’s cash flows from operations can be affected by numerous factors including the uncertainty of COVID-19 and its impact on global operations, raw material availability and cost, and demand for our products.
Backlog
As of July 25, 2021, the consolidated backlog of orders was approximately $231.8 million. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, backlog was approximately $177.7 million as of February 7, 2021. Disruptions in supply and distribution chains, global travel restrictions and government shelter in place orders due to the impact of COVID-19 have resulted in delays of construction projects and flooring installations in many regions worldwide.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The discussion below in this Item 3 is based upon the more detailed discussions of our market risk and related matters included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, under Part II, Item 7A of that Form 10-K. The discussion here focuses on the six months ended July 4, 2021, and any material changes from (or other important intervening developments since the time of) the information discussed in that Form 10-K. This discussion should be read in conjunction with that Form 10-K for more detailed and background information.
Sensitivity Analysis
For purposes of specific risk analysis, we use sensitivity analysis to measure the impact that market risk may have on the fair values of our market sensitive instruments. To perform sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values associated with the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates on market sensitive instruments.
Because the debt outstanding under our Syndicated Credit Facility has variable interest rates based on an underlying prime lending rate or LIBOR rate, we do not believe changes in interest rates would have any significant impact on the fair value of that debt instrument. Changes in the underlying prime lending rate or LIBOR rate would, however, impact the amount of our interest expense. For a discussion of these hypothetical impacts on our interest expense, please see the discussion in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2021.
As of July 4, 2021, based on a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point increase in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt would be impacted by a net decrease of $12.0 million. Conversely, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a net increase in the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt of $8.1 million.
As of July 4, 2021, a 10% decrease or increase in the levels of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant, would result in a decrease in the fair value of our financial instruments of $11.1 million or an increase in the fair value of our financial instruments of $13.6 million, respectively. As the impact of offsetting changes in the fair market value of our net foreign investments is not included in the sensitivity model, these results are not indicative of our actual exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.

-37-

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”), pursuant to Rule 13a-14(c) under the Act.
No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of controls has operated effectively in all cases. Our disclosure controls and procedures however are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Based on the evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are a party to legal proceedings, whether arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise. The disclosure under the headings “Lawsuit by Former CEO in Connection with Termination” and “Putative Class Action Lawsuit” set forth in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021 is incorporated by reference herein.
In the lawsuit by the former CEO, Mr. Gould’s defamation claims (two counts) were dismissed with prejudice by stipulation of the parties. The Company has filed a motion for summary judgment on Mr. Gould’s remaining claims, and that motion is pending with the Court. The Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend vigorously against it.
In the putative class action lawsuit, the Court has appointed a lead plaintiff, which filed an Amended Complaint that, among other things, added the Company’s former chief financial officer as a defendant. As in the original complaint, the allegations in the Amended Complaint relate to the subject matter of the concluded SEC investigation described in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021. The Company has filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in its entirety, and that motion is pending with the Court. The Company believes the putative class action is without merit and that the Company has good defenses to it. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the action.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2021.
