(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

Builders FirstSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in 1998, is a leading supplier and manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction in the United States. In this quarterly report, references to the “company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” or “us” refer to Builders FirstSource, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all recurring adjustments and normal accruals necessary for a fair statement of the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. Accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K.

2. Net Loss per Common Share

Net loss per common share (“EPS”) is calculated in accordance with the Earnings per Share topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”), which requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares.

Our restricted stock shares include rights to receive dividends that are not subject to the risk of forfeiture even if the underlying restricted stock shares on which the dividends were paid do not vest. In accordance with the Earnings per Share topic of the Codification, unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are deemed participating securities and should be considered in the calculation of basic EPS. Since the restricted stock shares do not include an obligation to share in losses, they will be included in our basic EPS calculation in periods of net income and excluded from our basic EPS calculation in periods of net loss. Accordingly, there were 0.1 million and 0.7 million restricted stock shares excluded from the computations of basic EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because we generated a net loss. For the purpose of computing diluted EPS, options to purchase 6.5 million and 5.4 million shares of common stock were not included in the computations of diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because their effect was anti-dilutive. Warrants to purchase 0.7 million and 1.6 million shares of common stock were not included in the computations of diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 because their effect was anti-dilutive.

3. Debt

Long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

Fair Value

The only financial instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis was our warrants.

The table below presents the effect of our derivative financial instrument on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31 (in thousands):

We use the income approach to value our warrants by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Using this model, the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the valuation date. The expected life is based on the period of time until the expiration of the warrants. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the most recent period equal to the expected life of the warrants. The expected dividend yield is based on our history of not paying regular dividends in the past and our current intention to not pay regular dividends in the foreseeable future.

These techniques incorporate Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. Significant inputs to the derivative valuation for the warrants are observable in the active markets and are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about our financial instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant other observable inputs (Level 2) (in thousands):

We have elected to report the value of our 2021 notes at amortized cost. The fair value of the 2021 notes at March 31, 2014 was approximately $375.6 million and was determined using Level 2 inputs based on market prices.

4. Employee Stock-Based Compensation

On February 11, 2014, our board of directors granted 1,268,000 stock options to employees under our 2007 Incentive Plan and 549,000 stock options to employees under our 2005 Incentive Plan. All the awards vest at 25% per year at each anniversary of the grant date over four years. The exercise price for the options was $7.67 per share, which was the closing stock price on the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair value of the options was $5.71 and was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

The expected life represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding. We used the simplified method for determining the expected life assumption due to limited historical exercise experience on our stock options. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the most recent period equal to the expected life of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on our history of not paying regular dividends in the past and our current intention to not pay regular dividends in the foreseeable future. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and has a term equal to the expected life of the options.

5. Income Taxes

In accordance with the Income Taxes topic of the Codification, we evaluate our deferred tax assets quarterly to determine if a valuation allowance is required. The Income Taxes topic requires that companies assess whether valuation allowances should be established based on the consideration of all available evidence. We recorded a valuation allowance of $1.0 million and $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, against the net deferred tax assets generated from the net operating losses during the periods related to our continuing operations.

To the extent we generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the tax benefits of the net deferred tax assets on which a valuation allowance is recorded, our effective tax rate may decrease as the valuation allowance is reversed. However, to the extent we generate future operating losses, we would be required to increase the valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets and our income tax expense will be adversely affected.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

We are a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any claim that is pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, there can be no assurances that future costs would not be material to our results of operations or liquidity for a particular period.

7. Segment and Product Information

We offer an integrated solution to our customers providing manufacturing, supply, and installation of a full range of structural and related building products. We provide a wide variety of building products and services directly to homebuilder customers. We manufacture floor trusses, roof trusses, wall panels, stairs, millwork, windows, and doors. We also provide a full range of construction services. We group our building products and services into five product categories: prefabricated components, windows & doors, lumber & lumber sheet goods, millwork, and other building products & services. We have one operating segment with centralized financial and operational oversight.

Sales by product category for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands):

8. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014 the FASB issued an update to the existing guidance under the Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment topics of the Codification. This update changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. Under the previous guidance any component of an entity that was a reportable segment, an operating segment, a reporting unit, a subsidiary, or an asset group was eligible for discontinued operations presentation. The revised guidance only allows disposals of components of entity that represent a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results to be presented as a discontinued operation. This update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but not required. The guidance applies prospectively to new disposals and new classifications of disposal groups as held for sale after the effective date. We do not currently expect that the adoption of this update will have an impact on our financial statements.

CURRENT OPERATING CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

Though the level of housing starts remains near historic lows, the homebuilding industry has shown improvement since 2011. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the annualized rate for U.S. single-family housing starts at March 31, 2014 was 635,000, a 1.9% improvement from one year ago but approximately 56.7% lower than when the downturn began in 2006. For the first quarter of 2014, actual U.S. single-family housing starts were 133,800, a 1.7% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2013. Actual single-family housing starts in the South Region, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau and which encompasses our entire geographic footprint, were 79,400 in the first quarter of 2014, a 0.1% decrease from the first quarter of 2013. However, single-family units under construction in the South Region increased 21.1% during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same quarter a year ago. While the housing industry has strengthened over the past two years, the limited availability of credit to smaller homebuilders and potential homebuyers, a slow economic recovery and high unemployment rates, among other factors, could delay a stronger recovery. The National Association of Homebuilders (“NAHB”) is forecasting 760,000 U.S. single-family housing starts for 2014, which is up approximately 22.3% from 2013, but still well below historical averages.

Our sales for the first quarter of 2014 were up 8.2% over the same period last year despite the extreme winter weather conditions, the negative impact of decreased market prices for commodity lumber products which were, on average, 14% lower than in the first quarter of 2013, and relatively flat housing starts in our markets. We believe our broad offering of products and services allows us to continue to gain market share and expand our customer base.  At the same time, our gross margin percentage increased by 2.2% during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013, primarily due to improved customer pricing and less intra-quarter volatility in commodity lumber prices during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Lumber and lumber sheet goods prices rose sharply during the first quarter of 2013, while prices fell during the first quarter of 2014. We have continued to manage our operating expenses with a key focus on conserving liquidity. We made significant changes to our business during the downturn that have improved our operating efficiency and allowed us to better leverage our operating costs against changes in sales. However, our selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 0.9% in the quarter compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to adverse weather conditions impacting our sales and operational efficiency.

We still believe that the long-term outlook for the housing industry is positive due to growth in the underlying demographics. We feel we are well-positioned to take advantage of the construction activity in our markets and continue to increase our market share. We will continue to focus on working capital by closely monitoring the credit exposure of our customers and by working with our vendors to improve our payment terms and pricing on our products. We will also continue to work diligently to achieve the appropriate balance of short-term expense control while maintaining the expertise to grow the business as market conditions improve. We want to create long-term shareholder value and avoid taking steps that will limit our ability to compete.

SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS

Our first and fourth quarters have historically been, and are generally expected to continue to be, adversely affected by weather causing reduced construction activity during these quarters. This pattern affected our financial results in the first quarter of 2014 to a greater extent than is typical. In addition, quarterly results historically have reflected, and are expected to continue to reflect, fluctuations from period to period arising from the following:

The composition and level of working capital typically change during periods of increasing sales as we carry more inventory and receivables. Working capital levels typically increase in the second and third quarters of the year due to higher sales during the peak residential construction season. These increases have in the past resulted in negative operating cash flows during this peak season, which historically have been financed through available cash and borrowing availability under credit facilities. Collection of receivables and reduction in inventory levels following the peak building and construction season have in the past positively impacted cash flow.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the percentage relationship to sales of certain costs, expenses and income items:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

Sales. Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $345.9 million, an 8.2% increase over sales of $319.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, actual U.S. single-family housing starts decreased 1.7% in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the first quarter of 2013. In the South Region, actual single-family starts decreased 0.1% in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the first quarter of 2013. However, the number of single-family units under construction in the South Region increased 21.1% over this same time period. We estimate that our sales increased 10.5% due to volume; however this increase was partially offset by a 2.3% decrease due to lower market prices for commodity lumber products.

The following table shows sales classified by product category (dollars in millions):

Increased sales were achieved across all product categories, except lumber and lumber sheet goods, primarily due to increased volume. The change in sales for lumber and lumber sheet goods is due to a 14.1% decrease in commodity prices in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013, which was partially offset by an increase in sales volume.

Gross Margin. Gross margin increased $12.6 million to $74.9 million. Our gross margin percentage increased to 21.7% in the first quarter of 2014 from 19.5% in the first quarter of 2013, a 2.2% increase. Our gross margin percentage increased primarily due to improved customer pricing and less intra-quarter volatility in commodity lumber prices in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $8.2 million, or 13.5%. Our salaries and benefits expense, excluding stock compensation expense, was $43.5 million, an increase of $5.8 million from the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to a 14% increase in full-time equivalent employees. Delivery expense increased $1.5 million and other general administrative expense increased $1.0 million, primarily due to increased sales volume.

As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 19.1% in the first quarter of 2013 to 20.0% in the first quarter of 2014. As a percentage of sales, salaries and benefits expense, excluding stock compensation expense, increased 0.8%, delivery costs increased by 0.2% and other general administrative expense increased 0.2%. These increases were primarily due to adverse weather conditions impacting our sales and operational efficiency.

13

Interest Expense, net. Interest expense was $8.8 million in the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $3.7 million from the first quarter of 2013. The decrease is primarily related to our refinancing in the second quarter of 2013, which lowered the interest rate and principal amount of our outstanding debt.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded an income tax benefit of $0.1 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $0.3 million of income tax expense in the first quarter of 2013. We recorded an after-tax, non-cash valuation allowance of $1.0 million and $4.4 million, in 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to our net deferred tax assets. Absent this valuation allowance, our effective tax rate would have been 33.1% and 36.3% in the first quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary capital requirements are to fund working capital needs and operating expenses, meet required interest and principal payments, and fund capital expenditures. Our capital resources at March 31, 2014 consist of cash on hand and borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility.

Our $175.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (“2013 facility”) is primarily used for working capital and general corporate purposes. Availability under the 2013 facility is determined by a borrowing base. Our borrowing base consists of trade accounts receivable, inventory and other receivables, including progress billings and credit card receivables, that meet specific criteria contained within the credit agreement, minus agent specified reserves. Net borrowing availability is equal to the maximum borrowing amount minus outstanding borrowings and letters of credit.

The following table shows our borrowing base and excess availability as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in millions):

As of March 31, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under our 2013 facility and our net borrowing availability was $161.1 million after being reduced by outstanding letters of credit of approximately $13.9 million. Excess availability is the sum of our net borrowing availability plus qualified cash, defined as cash on deposit that is subject to a control agreement in favor of the agent. Excess availability must equal or exceed a minimum specified amount, currently $17.5 million, or we are required to meet a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1 to 1. At March 31, 2014, our excess availability was $222.9 million, including $161.1 million in net borrowing availability and $61.8 million in qualified cash. We were not in violation of any covenants or restrictions imposed by any of our debt agreements at March 31, 2014.

Liquidity

Our liquidity at March 31, 2014 was $223.9 million, which includes $161.1 million in net borrowing availability under the 2013 facility and $62.8 million of cash on hand. We expect to generate cash of approximately $20 million in 2014 and to end the year with (i) cash of approximately $60-$80 million and (ii) liquidity of approximately $220-$240 million.

14

In the event that housing starts or sales volume for 2014 are higher or lower than expected, or if other assumptions used in our forecasting differ from actual results, our forecasted cash usage and liquidity levels may change. Should the current industry conditions deteriorate, we may be required to raise additional funds through the sale of common stock or debt in the public capital markets or in privately negotiated transactions. There can be no assurance that any of these financing options would be available on favorable terms, if at all. Alternatives to help supplement our liquidity position could include, but are not limited to, idling or permanently closing additional facilities, adjusting our headcount in response to current business conditions, attempts to renegotiate leases, and divesting of non-core businesses. There are no assurances that these steps would prove successful.

Since the beginning of the housing downturn, a primary focus has been on protecting our liquidity. Our action plan, which consisted of generating new business, reducing physical capacity, adjusting staffing levels, implementing cost containment programs, managing credit tightly, raising additional capital when needed, and conserving cash allowed us to mitigate the effects of the difficult industry conditions. While we continue to focus on these areas, we also plan to prudently utilize our liquidity to support anticipated sales growth, primarily related to our working capital, delivery fleet and staffing levels. We may also selectively pursue strategic acquisitions.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $13.8 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $25.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The change was primarily attributable to our improved financial performance and a reduction in working capital primarily due to an increase in accounts payable. However, this increase in accounts payable was partially offset by increases in inventory and accounts receivable due to increased sales volume during the three months ended March 31, 2014 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. Cash interest payments were $0.4 million and $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We pay interest on our outstanding 7.625% senior secured  notes due 2021 (“2021 notes”) semi-annually; prior to the 2013 refinancing we paid interest on our second priority senior secured floating rate notes due 2016 (“2016 notes”)  and our first-lien term loan due 2015 (“term loan”) quarterly.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $5.3 million compared to cash provided by investing activities of $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The change was primarily due to a decrease of $13.0 million in restricted cash related to the transfer of our outstanding letters of credit from the previous facility to our new letter of credit sub-facility, which eliminated our cash collateral requirement for outstanding letters of credit during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The remaining change is primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in capital expenditures primarily relates to purchasing machinery, equipment, and vehicles to support sales growth and to increase capacity at existing locations.

Cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash used in financing activities for both the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 primarily relates to the repurchase of our common stock related to restricted stock tendered in order to meet minimum withholding tax requirements for shares vested, which was partially offset by cash received from the exercise of employee stock options.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an update to the existing guidance under the Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment topics of the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”). This update changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. Under the previous guidance any component of an entity that was a reportable segment, an operating segment, a reporting unit, a subsidiary, or an asset group was eligible for discontinued operations presentation. The revised guidance only allows disposals of components of entity that represent a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results to be presented as a discontinued operation. This update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but not required. The guidance applies prospectively to new disposals and new classifications of disposal groups as held for sale after the effective date. We do not currently expect that the adoption of this update will have an impact on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We may experience changes in interest expense if changes in our debt occur. Changes in market interest rates could also affect our interest expense. Our 2021 notes bear interest at a fixed rate, therefore, our interest expense related to the 2021 notes would not be affected by an increase in market interest rates. Borrowings under the 2013 facility bear interest at either a base rate or eurodollar rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. At March 31, 2014, a 1.0% increase in interest rates would not result in any additional interest expense annually as we had no outstanding borrowings under the 2013 facility. The 2013 facility also assesses variable commitment and outstanding letter of credit fees based on quarterly average loan utilization.

Our share price and, to a lesser extent, the historical volatility of our common stock are the primary factors in the changes to our fair value measurements related to our outstanding warrants. All other inputs being equal, an increase or decrease in our share price or volatility would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of our warrants and an increase or decrease in interest expense. Based on the warrants outstanding and the historical volatility of our common stock as of March 31, 2014, a 10% change in our share price would result in approximately a $0.6 million change in our interest expense. Based on the warrants outstanding and our share price as of March 31, 2014, a 10% change in the historical volatility of our common stock would result in approximately a $0.1 million change in our interest expense.

We purchase certain materials, including lumber products, which are then sold to customers as well as used as direct production inputs for our manufactured products that we deliver. Short-term changes in the cost of these materials and the related in-bound freight costs, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are sometimes, but not always, passed on to our customers. Our delayed ability to pass on material price increases to our customers can adversely impact our operating results.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. The controls evaluation was conducted by our Disclosure Committee, comprised of senior representatives from our finance, accounting, internal audit, and legal departments under the supervision of our CEO and CFO.

Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), are attached as exhibits to this quarterly report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of their objectives and design, the Company’s implementation of the controls and procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this quarterly report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, were being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit department, our legal department and by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.

Conclusions regarding Disclosure Controls. Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above 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

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of claims and lawsuits. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations. We believe that our facilities are in material compliance with such laws and regulations. As owners and lessees of real property, we can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of contamination on such properties, in some circumstances without regard to whether we knew of or were responsible for such contamination. Our current expenditures with respect to environmental investigation and remediation at our facilities are minimal, although no assurance can be provided that more significant remediation may not be required in the future as a result of spills or releases of petroleum products or hazardous substances or the discovery of unknown environmental conditions.

Item  1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Item 5.  Other Information

(a) Disclosure pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act, we may be required to disclose in our annual and quarterly reports to the SEC whether we or any of our “affiliates” knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iran or with certain individuals or entities targeted by US economic sanctions. Disclosure is generally required even where the activities, transactions or dealings were conducted in compliance with applicable law. Because the SEC defines the term “affiliate” broadly, it includes any entity under common “control” with us (and the term “control” is also construed broadly by the SEC).

The description of the activities below has been provided to us by Warburg Pincus LLC (“WP”), affiliates of which: (i) beneficially own more than 10% of our outstanding common stock and/or are members of our board of directors and (ii) beneficially own more than 10% of the equity interests of, and have the right to designate members of the board of directors of Santander Asset Management Investment Holdings Limited, (“SAMIH”). SAMIH may therefore be deemed to be under common “control” with us; however, this statement is not meant to be an admission that common control exists.

The disclosure below relates solely to activities conducted by SAMIH and its non-U.S. affiliates that may be deemed to be under common “control” with us. The disclosure does not relate to any activities conducted by us or by WP and does not involve our or WP’s management. Neither we nor WP has had any involvement in or control over the disclosed activities of SAMIH, and neither we nor WP has independently verified or participated in the preparation of the disclosure. Neither we nor WP is representing to the accuracy or completeness of the disclosure nor do we or WP undertake any obligation to correct or update it.

We have been advised that SAMIH’s affiliates intend to disclose in their next annual or quarterly SEC report that an Iranian national, resident in the U.K., who is currently designated by the U.S. under the Iranian Financial Sanctions Regulations and the NPWMD designation, holds two investment accounts with Santander Asset Management UK Limited. The accounts have remained frozen throughout 2013 and the first quarter of 2014. The investment returns are being automatically reinvested, and no disbursements have been made to the customer. Total revenue for the Santander Group in connection with the investment accounts was £23,017 whilst net profits in the first quarter 2014 were negligible relative to the overall profits of Banco Santander, S.A.
