NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Gibraltar Industries, Inc. (the Company) without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the results of operations and other comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the financial position at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the statements of cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the statement of shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 have been included therein in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and regulations and prepared using the same accounting principles as are used for our annual audited financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures, including significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with the prescribed SEC rules. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed on Form 10-K.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company is subject to seasonal fluctuations in its businesses primarily due to reduced activity in the first and fourth quarters for the industries which we serve due to inclement weather.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-11, "Income Taxes" (Topic 740). The amendments in this Update affect the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The Company adopted the amendments in this Update on the effective date of December 15, 2013. The adoption of Update 2013-11 does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360)". The amendments in this update affect the presentation on the financial statements of assets which are disposed of or classified as held for sale. The amendments in Topic 205 and 360 are effective prospectively beginning on December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals, or classifications of assets held for sale, that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company does not expect the adoption of Update 2014-08 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606). The update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common standard for U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. More specifically, the core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in Topic 606 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on revenue recognition and its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" (Topic 718). The amendments in this update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The amendments in Topic 718 are effective either prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date, or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and all new or modified awards thereafter. The effective date of this pronouncement is December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of Topic 718 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

4. ACQUISITIONS

In September 2013, the Company purchased the assets of a domestic designer and distributor of solar-powered roof and attic ventilation products. The results of this acquisition have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial results since the date of acquisition (included in the Company’s Residential Products segment). The fair value of the aggregate purchase consideration for the assets acquired was $7,454,000. As part of the purchase agreement, the Company is required to pay additional consideration, or an earn-out provision, based on the acquired business’s EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes Depreciation and Amortization) through the last day of the twenty-fourth month following the closing date of the acquisition. The Company expects to make payments of additional consideration through the end of 2015. The purchase agreement does not provide for a limit of the amount of additional consideration. The Company recorded a payable of $2,322,000 to reflect the fair value of the Company’s obligation at the date of the acquisition. Adjustments to this payable are and will be reflected in the Company’s Statement of Operations. The fair value of the Company’s obligation was $410,000 as of September 30, 2014, which resulted in a $781,000 and a $1,523,000 gain recorded in SG&A during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. The Company also recorded $16,000 and $69,000 to interest expense for this obligation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The purchase price for the acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values. The excess consideration was recorded as goodwill and totaled $2,466,000, all of which is deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill represents future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified including growth opportunities and increased presence in the building products markets.

The allocation of purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed during 2013 are as follows (in thousands):



Working capital	$	2,665
Property, plant, and equipment	153
Acquired intangible assets	2,170
Goodwill	2,466
Fair value of purchase consideration	$	7,454

	Fair Value		Estimated Useful Life
Trademarks	$	640	Indefinite
Technology	260		15 years
Customer relationships	1,130		15 years
Non-compete agreements	140		5 years
Total	$	2,170

Table of Contents

The 2013 acquisition was financed through cash on hand. The Company incurred certain acquisition-related costs composed of legal and consulting fees, and these costs were recognized as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company also recognized costs related to the sale of inventory at fair value as a result of allocating the purchase price of this acquisition. All acquisition related costs (including the gain recognized as a result of the calculation of the earn-out obligation at fair value) consisted of the following (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,

In connection with the issuance of the 6.25% Notes, the Company initiated a tender offer for the purchase of the outstanding $204 million of 8% Senior Subordinated Notes (8% Notes). Simultaneously with the closing of the sale of the 6.25% Notes, the Company purchased tendered notes or called for redemption of all of the remaining 8% Notes that were not purchased. In connection with the redemption and tender offer, the Company satisfied and discharged its obligations under the 8% Notes during the first quarter of 2013. The Company recorded a charge of approximately $7,166,000 in the first quarter of 2013, including $3,702,000 for the prepayment premium paid to holders of the 8% Notes, $2,199,000 to write-off deferred financing fees and $1,265,000 for the unamortized original issue discount related to the 8% Notes. In connection with the issuance of the 6.25% Notes, the Company paid $3,755,000 in placement and other fees which are recorded as deferred financing costs, which are included in other assets and are being amortized over the term of the 6.25% Notes.

Separately, we have a Senior Credit Agreement entered into during 2011 that provides both a revolving credit facility and letters of credit which in an aggregate amount, are not permitted to exceed the lesser of (i) $200 million and (ii) a borrowing base determined by reference to the trade receivables, inventories, and property, plant, and equipment of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Agreement are secured by the trade receivables, inventory, personal property, equipment, and certain real property of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Credit Agreement is also guaranteed by each of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries. The Company can request additional financing from the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility to increase the revolving credit facility to $250 million under the terms of the Senior Credit Agreement. We have had no borrowing against the Senior Credit Agreement since October 2012.

The Senior Credit Agreement is currently committed through October 10, 2016. Interest rates on the revolving credit facility are based on the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR) plus an additional margin of 2.0% to 2.5%. In addition, the revolving credit facility is subject to an annual commitment fee calculated as 0.375% of the daily average undrawn balance.

Standby letters of credit issued under the Senior Credit Agreement to third parties on behalf of the Company, which, as of September 30, 2014 amounted to $20,863,000 . These letters of credit reduce the amount otherwise available under the revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, based upon the Company’s current borrowing base calculation, the Company had $109,321,000 of availability under the revolving credit facility.

On a trailing four-quarter basis, the Senior Credit Agreement includes a single financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 at the end of each quarter. As of September 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with this financial covenant. The Senior Credit Agreement contains other provisions and events of default that are customary for similar agreements and may limit the Company’s ability to take various actions.

9. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

Equity-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of stock options, restricted stock units, and restricted stock, are recognized in the statements of operations based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company uses the straight-line method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense over the vesting periods. Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of equity-based awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. Vesting requirements vary for directors, executives, and key employees with a vesting period that typically equals four years with graded vesting.

The Gibraltar Industries, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan) is an incentive compensation plan that allows the Company to grant equity-based incentive compensation awards to eligible participants to provide them an additional incentive to promote the business of the Company, to increase their proprietary interest in the success of the Company, and to encourage them to remain in the Company’s employ. Awards under the plan may be in the form of options, restricted shares, restricted units, performance shares, performance stock units, and rights. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock. Of the total number of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan, the aggregate number of shares which may be issued in connection with grants of incentive stock options and rights cannot exceed 900,000 shares. Vesting terms and award life are governed by the award document.

Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Shares

The following table provides the number of restricted stock units (that will convert to shares upon vesting) and restricted shares that were issued during the nine months ended September 30, along with the weighted average grant date fair value of each award:



	2014			2013
Awards	Number of Awards	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Awards	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Restricted stock units	168,857	$	17.17	78,405	$	12.86
Restricted shares	21,721	$	16.76	13,188	$	16.83

Performance Stock Units

In January 2012, the Company awarded 295,000 performance stock units with a grant date fair value of $4,152,000. As of September 30, 2014, 280,000 of the originally awarded performance stock units remained outstanding after forfeitures. The final number of performance stock units earned was based on the Company’s total stockholder returns relative to the S&P Small Cap 600 Index for the calendar year of 2012. During the performance period, the participants earned an aggregate of 163,200 performance stock units, representing 58.3% of the targeted award of 280,000 units.

In January 2013, the Company awarded 304,000 performance stock units with a grant date fair value of $4,123,000. As of September 30, 2014, 237,000 of the originally awarded performance stock units remained outstanding after forfeitures. The final number of performance stock units earned was determined based on the Company’s actual return on invested capital (ROIC) for 2013 relative to the improved ROIC targeted for the performance period ending December 31, 2013. During the performance period, the participants earned an aggregate of 114,000 performance stock units, representing 50% of the targeted award of 237,000 units.

In January 2014 and June 2014, the Company awarded 212,000 and 19,000, respectively, of performance stock units with a grant date fair value of $3,914,000 and $319,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, 224,000 of the originally awarded performance stock units remain outstanding after forfeitures. The final number of performance stock units earned will be determined based on the Company’s actual return on invested capital (ROIC) for 2014.

The cost of the 2012, 2013, and 2014 performance stock units will be recognized over the requisite vesting period, which ranges between one year and three years, depending on the date a participant turns 60 and completes 5 years of service. After the vesting period, any performance stock units earned will convert to cash based on the trailing 90-day closing price of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016 and be payable to participants in January 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively.

Performance stock unit compensation (recovery) expense	$	(261	)	$	(1,414	)	$	45	$	683

Management Stock Purchase Plan

The Management Stock Purchase Plan (MSPP) is an integral component of the Plan and provides participants the ability to defer a portion of their salary, their annual bonus under the Management Incentive Compensation Plan, and Directors’ fees. The deferral is converted to restricted stock units and credited to an account together with a company-match in restricted stock units equal to a percentage of the deferral amount. The account is converted to cash at the trailing 200-day average closing price of the Company’s stock and payable to the participants upon a termination of their service to the Company. The matching portion vests only if the participant has reached their sixtieth (60th) birthday. If a participant terminates their service to the Company prior to age sixty (60), the match is forfeited. Upon termination, the account is converted to a cash account that accrues interest at 2% over the then current ten-year U.S. Treasury note rate. The account is then paid out in either one lump sum, or in five or ten equal annual cash installments at the participant’s election.

The fair value of restricted stock units held in the MSPP equals the trailing 200-day average closing price of the Company’s common stock as of the last day of the period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, 116,708 and 121,488 restricted stock units, respectively, including the company-match, were credited to participant accounts. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the value of the restricted stock units in the MSPP was $16.73 and $15.97 per unit, respectively. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 731,597 and 614,888 restricted stock units, including the company-match, were credited to participant accounts including 62,349 and 47,268, respectively, of unvested restricted stock units. The Company made disbursements of $2,120,000 out of the MSPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $531,000 out of the MSPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The primary risks that the Company manages through its derivative instruments are foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity pricing risk. Accordingly, we have instituted hedging programs that are accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”

•

Our foreign currency hedging program is a cash flow hedge program designed to limit the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows. The Company uses foreign currency forward agreements and currency options, all of which mature within two years, to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are designated as hedging instruments in accordance with Topic 815.


•	Our commodity price hedging program is designed to mitigate the risks associated with market fluctuations in the price of commodities. The Company uses commodity options, which are classified as economic hedges, to manage this risk. All economic hedges are recorded at fair value through earnings, as the Company does not qualify to use the hedge accounting designation as prescribed by Topic 815.

Although certain of our derivative financial instruments do not qualify or are not accounted for under hedge accounting, we do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. We monitor our derivative positions using techniques including market valuations and sensitivity analyses. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability. These changes in fair value are attributable to the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge.

We consider the classification of the underlying hedged item’s cash flows in determining the classification for the designated derivative instrument’s cash flows. In the event that hedge accounting is discontinued, cash flows subsequent to the date of discontinuance are classified within investing activities. We classify derivative instrument cash flows from hedges of changes in foreign currency as operating activities due to the nature of the hedged item. Cash flows from derivative instruments not designated under hedge accounting, such as our aluminum price options, are classified as investing activities.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

To minimize foreign currency exposure, the Company had a foreign currency forward with a notional amount of $5,600,000 at September 30, 2014. This derivative instrument matures in December 2014.

This foreign currency forward is recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in shareholders' equity as a component of other comprehensive income. These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into earnings and reported in net sales in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. However, to the extent that the forward is not effective in offsetting the change in the value of the revenue being hedged, the ineffective portions of these contracts are recognized in earnings immediately. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the ineffective portions of any hedges were immaterial.

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

To minimize commodity price exposure, the Company had commodity options with notional amounts of $12,600,000 at September 30, 2014. These derivative instruments mature at various times through January 2016.

To minimize foreign currency exposure, the Company had foreign currency forwards with notional amounts of $11,200,000 and foreign currency options with notional amounts of $94,000,000 at September 30, 2014. These derivative instruments mature at various times through February 2016.

These commodity options, foreign exchange forward and forward exchange options are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value and the resulting gains or losses are recorded to other income in the consolidated statement of operations. The (gains) losses recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, are as follows (in thousands):

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. Fair value is defined based upon an exit price model. ASC 820 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as follows:


•	Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.


•	Level 2 - Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.


•	Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the assets or liability supported by little or no market activity. Level 3 inputs are based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.

As described in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired the assets of one business during the year ended December 31, 2013. The estimated fair values allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed relied upon fair value measurements based in part on Level 3 inputs. The valuation techniques used to assign fair values to inventory, property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets included the cost approach, market approach, relief-from-royalty approach, and other income approaches. The valuation techniques relied on a number of inputs that included the cost and condition of the property, plant and equipment, forecasted net sales and incomes, and royalty rates. In addition, the Company has a contingent consideration liability related to the earn-out provision for the 2013 acquisition discussed in Note 4 that is recorded at fair value on a recurring basis each reporting period. A discounted cash flow analysis, which takes into account a discount rate, forecasted EBITDA of the acquired business and the Company’s estimate of the probability of the acquired business achieving the forecasted EBITDA is used to determine the fair value of this liability at each reporting period until the liability will be settled in 2015. The fair value of this liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of this liability is sensitive primarily to changes in the forecasted EBITDA of the acquired business.

As described in Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company holds derivative foreign currency exchange forwards, foreign currency exchange options and commodity options. The fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are determined through the use of cash flow models that utilize observable market data inputs to estimate fair value. These observable market data inputs include foreign exchange rate and credit spread curves. In addition, the Company received fair value estimates from the foreign currency contract counterparties to verify the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates.

The fair value of commodity options is determined through the use of cash flow models that utilize observable market data inputs to estimate fair value. These observable market data inputs include forward rates and implied volatility. In addition, the Company received fair value estimates from the commodity contract counterparty to verify the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates.

The Company’s other financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, and accounts payable, and long-term debt. The carrying values for our financial instruments approximate fair value with the exception, at times, of long-term debt. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the carrying value of outstanding debt was $213,600,000 and $214,007,000, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s Senior Subordinated 6.25% Notes was estimated based on quoted market prices.

The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, our assets (liabilities) carried at fair value as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

12. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

For certain divestiture transactions, the Company has agreed to indemnify the buyer for various liabilities that may arise after the disposal date, subject to limits of time and amount. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has a contingent liability recorded for environmental remediation related to a discontinued operation. Management does not believe that the outcome of this claim, or other claims, would significantly affect the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

13. EXIT ACTIVITY COSTS AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

The Company focuses on being the low-cost provider of its products by reducing operating costs and implementing lean manufacturing initiatives, which have in part led to the consolidation of facilities and product lines. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company consolidated two facilities. As a result, the Company incurred a net change in asset impairment charges of $554,000, the net result of a gain on the sale of one of the consolidated facilities previously impaired in 2013, partially offset by impairment charges for the other facility consolidated during 2014. During 2013, the Company consolidated two facilities in this effort, and also identified two other facilities to close or consolidate. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred $1,628,000 of asset impairment charges along with exit activity costs, including contract termination costs, severance costs, and other moving and closing costs. If future opportunities for cost savings are identified, other facility consolidations and closings will be considered.

The following table provides a summary of asset impairments and exit activity costs incurred by segment during the three and nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

14. INCOME TAXES

The following table summarizes the provision for income taxes for continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, and the applicable effective tax rates (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Provision of income taxes	$	5,828		$	3,813		$	8,666		$	6,428
Effective tax rate	37.8		%	(38.5		)%	38.4		%	(200.2		)%

The Company’s provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying forecasted annual effective tax rates to income or loss before income taxes for the interim period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items, including interest on prior year tax liabilities, are recorded during the period in which they occur. To the extent that actual income or loss before taxes for the full year differs from the forecast estimates applied at the end of the most recent interim period, the actual tax rate recognized for the year ending December 31, 2014 could be materially different from the forecasted rate used for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 exceeded the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to state taxes and non-deductible permanent differences. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the difference between the Company's recorded charge and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35% is primarily attributable to the tax impact of the non-deductible goodwill impairment recognized during the quarter and state taxes.

15. NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, as well as dilutive potential common shares which, in the Company’s case, comprise of shares issuable under its equity compensation plans described in Note 9 of the consolidated financial statements. The treasury stock method is used to calculate dilutive shares, which reduces the gross number of dilutive shares by the number of shares purchasable from the proceeds of the options assumed to be exercised and the unrecognized expense related to the restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards assumed to have vested.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, all stock options, unvested restricted stock, and unvested restricted stock units were anti-dilutive and, therefore, not included in the dilutive loss per share calculation. The number of weighted average stock options, unvested restricted stock, and unvested restricted stock units that were not included in the dilutive loss per share calculation because the effect would have been anti-dilutive was 141,752 and 165,825 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is organized into two reportable segments on the basis of the production processes and products and services provided by each segment, identified as follows:


(i)	Residential Products, which primarily includes roof and foundation ventilation products, mail and package storage products, rain dispersion products and roofing accessories; and


(ii)	Industrial and Infrastructure Products, which primarily includes fabricated bar grating, expanded and perforated metal, expansion joints and structural bearings.

When determining the reportable segments, the Company aggregated several operating segments based on their similar economic and operating characteristics.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of sales to earnings before income taxes by segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):

Certain information set forth herein includes statements that express our opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and, therefore, are or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, competition, strategies and the industry in which we operate. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We believe that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and the development of the industries in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained herein. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and the development of the industries in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that we make herein speak only as of the date of those statements, and we undertake no obligation to update those statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of those statements to reflect future events or developments. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.

As of September 30, 2014, we operated 41 facilities in 22 states, Canada, England, and Germany, giving us a base of operations to provide quality, customer support, delivery, and service to a number of regional and national customers and providing us with manufacturing and distribution efficiencies in North America, as well as a presence in the European market.

The Company operates and reports its results in the following two reporting segments, entitled “Residential Products” and “Industrial and Infrastructure Products”.

Our Residential Products segment focuses on new residential housing construction and residential repair and remodeling activity. Our businesses in this segment sell products through major retail home centers, building material wholesalers, buying groups, roofing distributors, and residential contractors.

Our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment focuses on a variety of markets including discrete and process manufacturing, highway and bridge construction, and energy and power generation markets. This segment distributes its products through industrial, commercial and transportation contractors, industrial distributors and original equipment manufacturers.

Our strategy is to position Gibraltar as a low-cost provider and market share leader in product areas that offer opportunities for sales growth and margin enhancement over the long-term. We focus on operational excellence including lean initiatives throughout the Company to position Gibraltar as our customers’ low-cost provider of the products we offer. We continuously seek to improve our on-time delivery, quality, and service to position Gibraltar as a preferred supplier to our customers. We also strive to develop new products, enter new markets, expand market share in the residential markets, and further penetrate domestic and international industrial and infrastructure markets to strengthen our product leadership positions.

The end markets our businesses serve are subject to economic conditions that are influenced by various factors, including but not limited to, interest rates, commodity costs, demand for residential construction, governmental policies and funding, the level of non-residential construction and infrastructure projects and demand for related repair and remodeling. During 2014, many economic indicators, such as residential housing starts, non-residential construction starts, industrial shipments and home repair and remodeling activity, have shown uneven but modest improvements. As a result, the Company is still impacted by levels of activity in its core markets that are below historical long-term averages. In response to slow-growth market conditions, we have restructured our operations, including the closing and consolidation of facilities, resulting in reductions in employees and overhead costs, and managed the business to generate cash. Investments in enterprise resource planning systems have enabled us to react better to fluctuations in commodity costs and customer demand, and have helped in improving margins and curtailed our investments in inventory. We have used the improved cash flows generated by these initiatives to maintain lower levels of debt, improve our liquidity position, and invest in growth initiatives.

The following table sets forth the Company’s net sales by reportable segment for the three months ended September 30, (in thousands):



	2014			2013			Total Change
Net sales:
Residential Products	$	122,100		$	108,424		$	13,676
Industrial and Infrastructure Products	112,329			109,645			2,684
Less: Intersegment sales	(328		)	(657		)	329
	112,001			108,988			3,013
Consolidated	$	234,101		$	217,412		$	16,689

Net sales increased by $16.7 million, or 7.6%, to $234.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from net sales of $217.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was the result of a 6.9% increase in volume, a 0.4% increase due to sales generated by an acquisition completed in 2013, and a 0.3% increase in pricing to customers.

Net sales in our Residential Products segment increased 12.6%, or $13.7 million to $122.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $108.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was a result of a 12.7% increase in volume along with a 0.8% increase due to sales generated by an acquisition completed in 2013, partially offset by a 0.9% decrease in pricing to customers. The Company experienced accelerated demand for its centralized postal and

parcel storage products, as well as modestly higher demand for roofing-related products during the third quarter. The lower selling prices were primarily the result of meeting selective competitive situations.

Net sales in our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment increased 2.8%, or $3.0 million to $112.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $109.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was the result of a 1.6% increase in pricing to customers along with a 0.9% increase in volume. The modest increase in pricing offered to customers was the result of covering raw material inflation in our industrials markets. Our industrial markets also experienced improved volumes as compared to the prior year quarter, which were partially offset by lower shipment volumes to the transportation infrastructure market.

Our gross margin decreased to 17.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 19.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Our Residential Products segment was impacted by margin improvement initiatives which have not yet fully offset the related additional costs incurred to build out our manufacturing capacity this quarter. Increased costs for raw materials and a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices further contributed to the margin compression. In our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment, an unfavorable mix of products with lower margins as compared to the prior year, a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices and competitive pressures on pricing contributed to its margin compression. These factors contributing to the overall margin decline were partially offset by cost reductions resulting from staffing reductions in support functions implemented during the quarter and restructuring costs incurred in 2013 related to a facility consolidation during the third quarter of that year.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $1.6 million, or 6.5%, to $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $24.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The $1.6 million decrease was largely the result of a $0.8 million reduction in additional consideration (or "earn-out") payable to the seller of assets acquired by the Company in the third quarter of 2013. The payable is adjusted on a quarterly basis through the Company's Statement of Operations based on the acquired business's projected EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) through September 30, 2015. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 9.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 11.4% in the three months ended September 30, 2013.

In 2013, the Company recognized intangible asset impairment charges of $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 due to changes in the estimated fair value of certain reporting units resulting from decreases in their projected sales, profits and cash flow. The largest portion of the impairment was $21.3 million related to intangibles in our European-based business within our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment. No impairment charges were recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

The following table sets forth the Company’s income from operations and income from operations as a percentage of net sales by reportable segment for the three months ended September 30, (in thousands):



											Change Due To
	2014					2013					Total Change		Intangible Impairment		Operations
Income (loss) from operations:
Residential Products	$	13,694		11.2	%	$	10,068		9.3	%	$	3,626	$	1,000	$	2,626
Industrial and Infrastructure Products	6,574			5.9	%	(13,876		)	(12.7	)%	20,450		22,160		(1,710		)
Unallocated Corporate Expenses	(1,876		)	(0.8	)%	(2,344		)	(1.1	)%	468		—		468
Consolidated income (loss)	$	18,392		7.9	%	$	(6,152	)	(2.8	)%	$	24,544	$	23,160	$	1,384

Our Residential Products segment generated an operating margin of 11.2% during the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 9.3% during the three months ended September 30, 2013. Excluding the impairment charges of $1.0 million, the Residential Products segment generated operating income of $11.1 million in the third quarter of 2013, resulting in quarter over quarter increase from operations of $2.6 million. The increase was due to the benefit of higher sales volumes during the quarter as compared to the same time period in 2013. In addition, the Company incurred restructuring costs in the third quarter of 2013 related to a facility consolidation. These benefits were partially offset by margin improvement initiatives which have not yet fully offset the related additional costs incurred to build out our manufacturing capacity this quarter. Additional offsets include higher raw material costs along with a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment generated an operating margin of 5.9% during the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to negative margin of 12.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2013. Excluding the impairment charges of $22.2 million, the Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment generated operating income of $8.3 million in the third quarter of 2013, resulting in a decrease from operations of $1.7 million. The decrease was due to the effects of a less favorable product mix of lower shipments to the transportation infrastructure market, a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2013 and raw material cost inflation.

Corporate expenses decreased $0.5 million, or 21.7% from $2.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $1.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease was largely the result of a $0.8 million earn-out consideration payable to the seller of assets acquired by the Company in the third quarter of 2013.

Interest expense decreased $0.1 million to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. During the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, no amounts were outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

We recognized a provision for income taxes of $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an effective tax rate of 37.8%, compared with a provision for income taxes of $3.8 million, an effective tax rates of (38.5)%, for the same time period in 2013. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2014 exceeded the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to state taxes and non-deductible permanent differences. The difference between the Company's recorded charge for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35% is primarily attributable to the tax impact of the non-deductible goodwill impairment recognized during the quarter and state taxes.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013

The following table sets forth the Company’s net sales by reportable segment for the nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):



	2014			2013			Total Change
Net sales:
Residential Products	$	326,483		$	308,536		$	17,947

	333,610			330,196			3,414
Consolidated	$	660,093		$	638,732		$	21,361

Net sales increased by $21.4 million, or 3.4%, to $660.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from net sales of $638.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was the result of a 2.5% increase in volume, a 0.5% increase in pricing to customers, and 0.4% increase due to sales generated by an acquisition completed in 2013.

Net sales in our Residential Products segment increased 5.9%, or $17.9 million to $326.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $308.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was a result of a 5.9% increase in volume along with a 0.8% increase due to sales generated by an acquisition completed in 2013, slightly offset by a 0.8% decrease in pricing to customers. Nearly all of the increased demand was for our new centralized postal and parcel storage products. The lower selling prices were primarily the result of meeting selective competitive situations.

Net sales in our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment increased 1.0%, or 3.4 million to $333.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $330.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was the result of a 1.7% increase in pricing to customers, partially offset by a 0.8% decrease in volume. The modest increase in pricing offered to customers was the result of covering raw material inflation in our industrials markets. While our industrial markets experienced improved volumes as compared to the prior year, these improvements were more than offset by lower shipment volumes to the transportation infrastructure market.

Our gross margin decreased to 16.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 19.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Competitive pressures on pricing and increasing raw material costs impacted both segments with lower margins as compared to the prior year which resulted in a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices. Margin improvement initiatives which have not yet fully offset the related additional costs incurred to build out our manufacturing capacity this year in our Residential Products segment also contributed to the margin compression. An unfavorable mix of products with lower margins as compared to the prior year in our infrastructure markets further contributed to the margin compression in our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment. These factors contributing to the overall margin decline were partially offset by cost reductions resulting from staffing reductions in support functions implemented during the quarter.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $6.0 million, or 7.1%, to $78.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $84.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The $6.0 million decrease was largely the result of a $4.1 million decrease in equity based compensation expense and a $1.4 million decrease in other variable performance based compensation as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013, along with a a $1.5 million reduction in additional consideration (or "earn-out") payable to the seller of assets acquired by the Company in the third quarter of 2013. The payable is adjusted on a quarterly basis through the Company's Statement of Operations based on the acquired business's projected EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) through September 30, 2015. A $1.0 million of SG&A expense from the above business acquired in 2013 partially offset the year over year decrease in SG&A expense. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 11.8% in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 13.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

In 2013, the Company recognized intangible asset impairment charges of $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 due to changes in the estimated fair value of certain reporting units resulting from decreases in their projected sales, profits and cash flow. The largest portion of the impairment was $21.3 million related to intangibles in our European-based business within our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment. No impairment charges were recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The following table sets forth the Company’s income from operations and income from operations as a percentage of net sales by reportable segment for the nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):



														Change Due To
	2014					2013					Total Change			Intangible Impairment		Operations
Income from operations:
Residential Products	$	26,740		8.2	%	$	29,925		9.7	%	$	(3,185	)	$	1,000	$	(4,185	)
Industrial and Infrastructure Products	15,727			4.7	%	724			0.2	%	15,003			22,160		(7,157		)

Consolidated income	$	33,398		5.1	%	$	15,327		2.4	%	$	18,071		$	23,160	$	(5,089	)

Our Residential Products segment generated an operating margin of 8.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 9.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Excluding the impairment charges of $1.0 million, the Residential Products segment generated operating income of $30.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, resulting in a decrease from operations of $4.2 million. The decrease was the result of margin improvement initiatives which have not yet fully offset the related additional costs incurred to build out our manufacturing capacity this year along with higher raw material costs and a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Our Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment generated an operating margin of 4.7% during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 0.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Excluding the impairment charges of $22.2 million, the Industrial and Infrastructure Products segment generated operating income of $22.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 resulting in a decrease from operations of $7.2 million as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due to the effects of a less favorable product mix of lower shipments to the transportation infrastructure market as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013, plus a less favorable alignment of material costs to customer selling prices and raw material cost inflation.

Corporate expenses decreased $6.3 million or 41.2% from $15.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to $9.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in equity based compensation expense of $4.2 million from prior year and a $0.8 million decrease in other variable performance based compensation as compared to the the nine months ended September 30, 2014, along with a a $1.5 million reduction in earn-out payable to the seller of assets acquired by the Company in the third quarter of 2013.

Interest expense decreased by $7.7 million to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $18.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The significant decrease in interest expense in 2014 compared to the prior year resulted from the costs incurred in 2013 for the tender and redemption of the $204 million of 8% Senior Subordinated Notes (8% Notes) on January 31, 2013. In connection with this transaction in 2013, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $7.2 million, which included $3.7 million for the prepayment premium paid to holders of the 8% Notes, $2.2 million to write-off deferred financing fees and $1.3 million for the unamortized original issue discount related to the 8% Notes in the first quarter of 2013. In addition, this transaction resulted in lower interest expense of approximately $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, due to the lower coupon rate on the 6.25% Notes as compared to the 8% Notes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, no amounts were outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

We recognized a provision for income taxes of $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an effective tax rate of 38.4%, compared with a provision for income taxes of $6.4 million, an effective tax rate of (200.2)%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 exceeded the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to state taxes and non-deductible permanent differences. The difference between the Company's recorded charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% is primarily attributable to the non-deductible goodwill impairment recognized during the third quarter and state taxes.

Outlook

We continue to expect demand in the fourth quarter to benefit from orders of postal products as overall end market demand becomes seasonally slower. As a result, we anticipate low single-digit consolidated top-line growth for the year, with total revenues in the range of $855 to $860 million, compared with $828 million in 2013.

Table of Contents

On the bottom line for the fourth quarter, our recent margin improvement initiatives are not expected to fully offset the additional costs we are incurring to build out our manufacturing capacity for postal storage solutions within this quarter of seasonally low demand. As a result, we anticipate reporting fourth-quarter earnings per share between break-even and $0.03, compared with $0.13 for the same period last year, and $0.44 to $0.47 for full year 2014, compared with a loss of $0.18 in 2013.

Looking forward to 2015, a number of economic indicators suggest a strengthening in demand for building products, compared with conditions in 2014. With the operational enhancements that we have implemented this past year, we are better-positioned to capitalize on end-market growth and deliver improved financial results in the year ahead. Furthermore, we have established Gibraltar as a market leader in key applications in the residential and transportation infrastructure markets where growth drivers have the potential to outweigh cyclical factors in the economy over the next three to five years. At the same time, our business simplification and product cost reduction initiatives should enable us to improve the margin leverage in our business model.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal capital requirements are to fund our operations with working capital, the purchase of capital improvements for our business and facilities, and to fund acquisitions. We will continue to invest in growth opportunities as appropriate while continuing to focus on working capital efficiency and profit improvement opportunities to minimize the cash invested to operate our business. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 , we invested cash in our working capital to meet the upcoming higher seasonal demand from our customers as noted below in the “Cash Flows” section of Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As of September 30, 2014, our liquidity of $210 million consisted of $101 million of cash and $109 million of availability under our revolving credit facility. We believe this liquidity, together with the cash expected to be generated from operations, should be sufficient to fund working capital needs and future growth. We continue to search for strategic acquisitions; and a larger acquisition may require additional borrowings and/or the issuance of our common stock.

Our Senior Credit Agreement provides the Company with liquidity and capital resources for use by our U.S. operations. Historically, our foreign operations have generated cash flow from operations sufficient to invest in working capital and fund their capital improvements. As of September 30, 2014, our foreign subsidiaries held $20.9 million of cash in US dollars. We believe cash held by our foreign subsidiaries provides our foreign operations with the necessary liquidity to meet future obligations and allows the foreign business units to reinvest in their operations. These cash resources could eventually be used to grow our business internationally through transactions similar to our 2012 acquisition of a Western Canadian bar grating business. Repatriation of this cash for domestic purposes could result in significant tax consequences.

Over the long-term, we expect that future obligations, including strategic business opportunities such as acquisitions, may be financed through a number of sources, including internally available cash, availability under our revolving credit facility, new debt financing, the issuance of equity securities, or any combination of the above. Any potential acquisitions are evaluated on the basis of our ability to enhance our existing products, operations, or capabilities, as well as provide access to new products, markets, and customers, and improve shareholder value.

These expectations are forward-looking statements based upon currently available information and may change if conditions in the credit and equity markets deteriorate or other circumstances change. To the extent that operating cash flows are lower than current levels, or sources of financing are not available or available at acceptable terms, our future liquidity may be adversely affected.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth selected cash flow data for the nine months ended September 30, (in thousands):

Table of Contents



	2014			2013
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities of continuing operations	$	18,185		$	37,916
Investing activities of continuing operations	(13,101		)	(1,713		)
Financing activities of continuing operations	(305		)	(2,882		)
Discontinued operations	(40		)	(9		)
Effect of exchange rate changes	(765		)	(492		)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	3,974		$	32,820

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations totaled $18.2 million, primarily driven by net income from continuing operations of $13.9 million and non-cash charges including depreciation, amortization, and stock compensation of $21.1 million, partially offset by a $16.8 million investment in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $37.9 million, primarily driven by non-cash charges including impairment, depreciation, amortization, and stock compensation of $50.4, and a $7.2 million loss on early note redemption, partially offset by a $10.1 million investment in working capital and a net loss from operations of $9.6 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company invested $16.8 million in working capital to fund growth in sales and inventory to meet demand in our seasonally strongest periods. Cash invested in working capital and other net assets included $33.0 million and $5.5 million increases in accounts receivable and inventory, respectively, partially offset by a $22.3 million increase in accounts payable. The increase in accounts receivable was a result of increased sales volume. Inventory and accounts payable increased due to increased manufacturing activity. The increased sales volume and manufacturing activity were a direct result of the seasonality of customer order levels that impact our business. The increase in other current assets and other assets of $1.2 million was largely due to the timing of prepaid expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $13.1 million was primarily due to capital expenditures of $19.2 million partially offset by $6.0 million received from the sale of two properties. Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $1.7 million consisted of $5.3 million for the 2013 acquisitions of solar-powered ventilation assets and $8.8 million of capital expenditures, partially offset for $12.4 million received for the sale of a property.

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, of $0.3 million was the result of the purchase of treasury stock of $0.5 million and $0.4 million in long term debt payments, partially offset by the proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $0.5 million. Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, of $2.9 million was primarily the result of redemption of the $204 million 8% Notes along with $3.7 million payment of note redemption fees and $3.9 million for payments of deferred financing fees. These cash outflows were offset by proceeds from the issuance of the $210.0 million 6.25% Notes.

Senior Credit Agreement and Senior Subordinated Notes

Borrowings under the Senior Credit Agreement are secured by the trade receivables, inventory, personal property and equipment, and certain real property of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Credit Agreement provides for both a revolving credit facility and letters of credit in an aggregate amount that does not exceed the lesser of (i) $200 million or (ii) a borrowing base determined by reference to the trade receivables, inventories, and property, plant, and equipment of the Company’s significant domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Credit Agreement provides the Company with more flexibility by allowing for Gibraltar to request additional financing from the lenders to increase the revolving credit facility to $250 million.

The Senior Credit Agreement is currently committed through October 10, 2016. Only one financial covenant is contained within the 2011 Senior Credit Agreement, which requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge ratio (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) of 1.25 to 1.00 or higher on a trailing four-quarter basis.

Borrowings under the Senior Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable interest rate based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an additional margin of 2.0% to 2.5% on the revolving credit facility based on the amount of availability under the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility also carries an annual facility fee of 0.375% on the undrawn portion of the facility and fees on outstanding letters of credit which is payable quarterly. During the nine months

ended and as of September 30, 2014, no amounts were outstanding on the revolving credit facility. We had outstanding letters of credit of $20.9 million as of September 30, 2014.

The Company issued $210.0 million of the 6.25% Notes in January 2013 which are due February 1, 2021. Provisions of the 6.25% Notes include, without limitation, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, and distributions from restricted subsidiaries, asset sales, affiliate transactions, dividends, and other restricted payments. Dividend payments are subject to annual limits of the greater of $0.25 per share or $25 million. The 6.25% Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after February 1, 2017, at the redemption price (as defined in the Senior Subordinated 6.25% Notes Indenture). The redemption prices are 103.13% and 101.56% of the principal amount thereof if the redemption occurs during the 12-month periods beginning February 1, of the years 2017 and 2018, respectively, and 100% of the principal amount thereof on and after February 1, 2019, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date. In addition,

prior to February 1, 2016, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings by the Company at a redemption price of 106.25% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Senior Subordinated 6.25% Notes Indenture), each holder of the 6.25% Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s 6.25% Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof.

Each of our significant domestic subsidiaries has guaranteed the obligations under the Senior Credit Agreement. The Senior Credit Agreement contains other provisions and events of default that are customary for similar agreements and may limit our ability to take various actions. The Senior Subordinated 6.25% Notes Indenture also contains provisions that limit additional borrowings based on the Company’s consolidated interest coverage ratio.

Off Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations have not changed materially from the disclosures included in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make decisions based upon estimates, assumptions, and factors it considers relevant to the circumstances. Such decisions include the selection of applicable principles and the use of judgment in their application, the results of which could differ from those anticipated.

Our most critical accounting policies include the valuation of accounts receivable; valuation of inventory; allocation of purchase price of acquisitions; assessment of recoverability of depreciable and amortizable long-lived assets, goodwill, and other indefinite-lived intangible assets; and accounting for income taxes and deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are described in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

In the current year, the Company instituted hedging programs that are accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk is recorded in other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings and reported in revenue in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized directly into earnings in other (income) expense. Our policy is to de-designate cash flow hedges at the time forecasted transactions are recognized as assets or liabilities on a business unit’s balance sheet and report subsequent changes in fair value through the other (income) expense line on our statement of operations where the gain or loss due to movements in currency rates on the underlying asset or liability is revalued. If it becomes probable that the originally forecasted transaction will not occur, the gain or loss related to the hedge recorded within accumulated other comprehensive income is immediately recognized into net income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment" (Topic 360). The amendments in this Update affect the presentation on the financial statements of assets which are disposed of or classified as held for sale. The amendments in Topic 205 and 360 are effective prospectively beginning on December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals, or classifications of assets held for sale, that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company does not expect the adoption of Update 2014-08 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606). The Update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common standard for U.S. GAAP and IFRS. More specifically, the core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in Topic 606 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on revenue recognition and its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" (Topic 718). The amendments in this Update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The amendments in Topic 718 are effective either prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date, or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and all new or modified awards thereafter. The effective date of this pronouncement is December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of Topic 718 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to various market risk factors, including changes in general economic conditions, competition, foreign exchange rates, and raw materials pricing and availability. In addition, the Company is exposed to other financial market risks, primarily related to its long-term debt and foreign operations. Except as set forth below, the Company's market risk disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk" of its 2013 Form 10-K have not changed materially for the first nine months of 2014.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company entered into a fixed price sales agreement that increased the Company’s exposure to foreign exchange risk and raw material pricing risk. In order to mitigate these risks the Company entered into derivative financial instruments agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Table of Contents

The sales agreement mentioned above increased the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation. The Company manages the risks relating to this exposure through a combination of our normal operating activities and through the use of derivative financial instruments pursuant to the Company’s hedging practices and policies. The Company uses foreign currency derivatives including currency forward agreements and currency options to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the exchange rates.

Raw Material Pricing Risk

The aforementioned sales agreement also created additional exposure related to volatility in the price of commodities. To mitigate the fluctuations, the Company manages these risks associated with this market through a combination of our normal operating activities and through the use of derivative financial instruments pursuant to the Company’s hedging practices and policies. The Company uses commodity option contracts to manage its exposure to changes in the cost of commodities.
