EXPLANATORY NOTE
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “report”) is a combined quarterly report being filed separately by two registrants: Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC. Each registrant hereto is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this report that relates to such registrant. Each registrant hereto is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information. We believe that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Summit Materials, Inc. and Summit Materials, LLC into this single report eliminates duplicative and potentially confusing disclosure and provides a more streamlined presentation since a substantial amount of the disclosure applies to both registrants.
Unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, references to “Summit Inc.” mean Summit Materials, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and references to “Summit LLC” mean Summit Materials, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The references to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC are used in cases where it is important to distinguish between them. We use the terms “we,” “our,” “us” or “the Company” to refer to Summit Inc. and Summit LLC together with their respective subsidiaries, unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise requires.
Summit Inc. was formed on September 23, 2014 to be a holding company. As of April 1, 2023, its sole material asset was a 98.9% economic interest in Summit Materials Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Summit Holdings”). Summit Inc. has 100% of the voting rights of Summit Holdings, which is the indirect parent of Summit LLC. Summit LLC is a co-issuer of our outstanding 6 1/2 % senior notes due 2027 (“2027 Notes”) and our 5 1/4% senior notes due 2029 (“2029 Notes” and collectively with the 2027 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). Summit Inc.’s only revenue for the three months ended April 1, 2023 was that generated by Summit LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries. Summit Inc. controls all of the business and affairs of Summit Holdings and, in turn, Summit LLC.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “trends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans, expectations or intentions. All statements made relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the effect of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or our objectives and plans will be realized. Important factors could affect our results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Summit Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), any factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this report and the following:

•declines in public infrastructure construction and delays or reductions in governmental funding, including the funding by transportation authorities, the federal government and other state agencies particularly;
•our reliance on private investment in infrastructure, which may be adversely affected by periods of economic stagnation and recession;
•environmental, health, safety and climate change laws or governmental requirements or policies concerning zoning and land use;
•rising prices for, or more limited availability of, commodities, labor and other production and delivery inputs as a result of inflation, supply chain challenges or otherwise;
•conditions in the credit markets;
•our ability to accurately estimate the overall risks, requirements or costs when we bid on or negotiate contracts that are ultimately awarded to us;
•material costs and losses as a result of claims that our products do not meet regulatory requirements or contractual specifications;
•cancellation of a significant number of contracts or our disqualification from bidding for new contracts;
•special hazards related to our operations that may cause personal injury or property damage not covered by insurance;
•unexpected factors affecting self-insurance claims and reserve estimates;
•our current level of indebtedness, including our exposure to variable interest rate risk;
•our dependence on senior management and other key personnel, and our ability to retain and attract qualified personnel;
•supply constraints or significant price fluctuations in the electricity and petroleum-based resources that we use, including diesel and liquid asphalt;
•climate change and climate change legislation or other regulations;
•unexpected operational difficulties;
•costs associated with pending and future litigation;
•interruptions in our information technology systems and infrastructure, including cybersecurity and data leakage risks;
•potential labor disputes, strikes, other forms of work stoppage or other union activities; and
•the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and responses to it, including vaccine mandates, or any similar crisis, on our activities.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.
Any forward-looking statement that we make herein speaks only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

(Dollars in tables in thousands, except per share amounts or otherwise noted)
1.SUMMARY OF ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Summit Materials, Inc. (“Summit Inc.” and, together with its subsidiaries, “Summit,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a vertically-integrated construction materials company. The Company is engaged in the production and sale of aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete, asphalt paving mix and concrete products and owns and operates quarries, sand and gravel pits, two cement plants, cement distribution terminals, ready-mix concrete plants, asphalt plants and landfill sites. It is also engaged in paving and related services. The Company’s three operating and reporting segments are the West, East and Cement segments.
Substantially all of the Company’s construction materials, products and services are produced, consumed and performed outdoors, primarily in the spring, summer and fall. Seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions can affect the production and sales volumes of its products and delivery of services. Therefore, the financial results for any interim period are typically not indicative of the results expected for the full year. Furthermore, the Company’s sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions, weather conditions and to cyclical changes in construction spending, among other factors.
Summit Inc. is a holding corporation operating and controlling all of the business and affairs of Summit Materials Holdings L.P. (“Summit Holdings”) and its subsidiaries, and through Summit Holdings conducts its business. Summit Inc. owns the majority of the partnership interests of Summit Holdings (see Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity). Summit Materials, LLC (“Summit LLC”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Summit Holdings, conducts the majority of our operations. Summit Materials Finance Corp. (“Summit Finance”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Summit LLC, has jointly issued our Senior Notes as described below.
Basis of Presentation—These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company continues to follow the accounting policies set forth in those audited consolidated financial statements.
Management believes that these consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments, normal and recurring in nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of April 1, 2023, the results of operations for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022 and cash flows for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Summit Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
For a summary of the changes in Summit Inc.’s ownership of Summit Holdings, see Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity.
Use of Estimates—Preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Such estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of deferred tax assets, goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, tax receivable agreement ("TRA") liability, pension and other postretirement obligations and asset retirement obligations. Estimates also include revenue earned on contracts and costs to complete contracts. Most of the Company’s paving and related services are performed under fixed unit-price contracts with state and local governmental entities. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results can differ significantly from estimates made. Changes in estimates, including
6
those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements when the change in estimate occurs.
Business and Credit Concentrations—The Company’s operations are conducted primarily across 20 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada, with the most significant revenue generated in Texas, Utah, Kansas and Missouri. The Company’s accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers within these areas. Therefore, collection of these accounts is dependent on the economic conditions in the aforementioned states, as well as specific situations affecting individual customers. Credit granted within the Company’s trade areas has been granted to many customers, and management does not believe that a significant concentration of credit exists with respect to any individual customer or group of customers. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue in the three months ended April 1, 2023 or April 2, 2022.
Revenue Recognition—We earn revenue from the sale of products, which primarily include aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and asphalt, but also include concrete products and plastics components, and from the provision of services, which are primarily paving and related services, but also include landfill operations, the receipt and disposal of waste that is converted to fuel for use in our cement plants.
Products: Revenue for product sales is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, which generally is when the product is shipped.
Services: We earn revenue from the provision of services, which are primarily paving and related services, which are typically calculated using monthly progress based on a method similar to percentage of completion or a customer’s engineer review of progress.
The majority of our construction service contracts are completed within one year, but may occasionally extend beyond this time frame. The majority of our construction service contracts are for work that occurs mostly during the spring, summer and fall. We generally measure progress toward completion on long-term paving and related services contracts based on the proportion of costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion.
Estimating costs to be incurred for revenue recognition involves the use of various estimating techniques to project costs at completion, and in some cases includes estimates of recoveries asserted against the customer for changes in specifications or other disputes.
Earnings per Share—The Company computes basic earnings per share attributable to stockholders by dividing income attributable to Summit Inc. by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic earnings per share that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would have shared in the Company’s earnings. Since the Class B common stock has no economic value, those shares are not included in the weighted-average common share amount for basic or diluted earnings per share. In addition, as the shares of Class A common stock are issued by Summit Inc., the earnings and equity interests of noncontrolling interests are not included in basic earnings per share.
2.ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS, GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLES
The Company has completed numerous acquisitions since its formation, which have been financed through a combination of debt and equity funding and available cash. The operations of each acquisition have been included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations since the respective closing dates of the acquisitions. The Company measures all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair value. Goodwill acquired during a business combination has an indefinite life and is not amortized.

_______________________________________________________________________
(1) Reflects goodwill from 2023 acquisitions.
The Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization are primarily composed of operating permits, mineral lease agreements and reserve rights. Operating permits relate to permitting and zoning rights acquired outside of a business combination. The assets related to mineral lease agreements reflect the submarket royalty rates paid under agreements, primarily for extracting aggregates. The values were determined as of the respective acquisition dates by a comparison of market-royalty rates. The reserve rights relate to aggregate reserves to which the Company has certain rights of ownership, but does not own the reserves. The intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the leases or permits. The following table shows intangible assets by type and in total:

7.INCOME TAXES
Summit Inc.’s tax provision includes its proportional share of Summit Holdings’ tax attributes. Summit Holdings’ subsidiaries are primarily limited liability companies but do include certain entities organized as C corporations and a Canadian subsidiary. The tax attributes related to the limited liability companies are passed on to Summit Holdings and then to its partners, including Summit Inc. The tax attributes associated with the C corporation and Canadian subsidiaries are fully reflected in the Company’s accounts.
Our income tax benefit was $(6.5) million and $(4.7) million in the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for Summit Inc. differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to (1) tax depletion expense in excess of the expense recorded under U.S. GAAP, (2) basis differences in assets divested, (3) state taxes, (4) the minority interest in the Summit Holdings partnership that is allocated outside of the Company and (5) various other items such as limitations on meals and entertainment, certain stock compensation and other costs.
As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Summit Inc. had a valuation allowance of $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, which relates to certain deferred tax assets in taxable entities where realization is not more likely than not.
No material interest or penalties were recognized in income tax expense during the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.
Tax Receivable Agreement—The Company is party to a TRA with certain current and former holders of LP Units that provides for the payment by Summit Inc. to exchanging holders of LP Units of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Summit Inc. actually realizes (or, under certain circumstances such as an early termination of the TRA, is deemed to realize) as a result of increases in the tax basis of tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA.
In the three months ended April 1, 2023, 2,000 LP Units were acquired by Summit Inc. in exchange for an equal number of newly-issued shares of Summit Inc.’s Class A common stock. As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had recorded $327.8 million and $328.4 million of TRA liability, respectively.
Tax Distributions – The holders of Summit Holdings’ LP Units, including Summit Inc., incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their share of any taxable income of Summit Holdings. The limited partnership agreement of Summit Holdings provides for pro rata cash distributions (“tax distributions”) to the holders of the LP Units in an amount generally calculated to provide each holder of LP Units with sufficient cash to cover its tax liability in respect of the LP Units. In
12
general, these tax distributions are computed based on Summit Holdings’ estimated taxable income allocated to Summit Inc. multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate in New York, New York. No tax distributions were made by Summit Holdings in the three months ended April 1, 2023.
8.EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average common shares outstanding and diluted net earnings is computed by dividing net earnings, adjusted for changes in the earnings allocated to Summit Inc. as a result of the assumed conversion of LP Units, by the weighted-average common shares outstanding assuming dilution.

11.LEASES
We lease construction and office equipment, distribution facilities and office space. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, including month to month leases, are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease expense for short-term leases is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term. For lease agreements we have entered into or reassessed we combine lease and nonlease components. While we also own mineral leases for mining operations, those leases are outside the scope of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-2, Leases (Topic 842). Assets acquired under finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment.
Many of our leases include options to purchase the leased equipment. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The components of lease expense were as follows:

12.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all current pending or threatened claims and
16
litigation will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company records legal fees as incurred.
In March 2018, we were notified of an investigation by the Canadian Competition Bureau (the “CCB”) into pricing practices by certain asphalt paving contractors in British Columbia, including Winvan Paving, Ltd. (“Winvan”). We believe the investigation is focused on time periods prior to our April 2017 acquisition of Winvan and we are cooperating with the CCB. Although we currently do not believe this matter will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, we are currently not able to predict the ultimate outcome or cost of the investigation.
Environmental Remediation and Site Restoration —The Company’s operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. The Company regularly monitors and reviews its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of the Company’s business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities or noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
The Company has asset retirement obligations arising from regulatory and contractual requirements to perform reclamation activities at the time certain quarries and landfills are closed. As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $35.5 million and $36.3 million, respectively, were included in other noncurrent liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and $5.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, were included in accrued expenses for future reclamation costs. The total undiscounted anticipated costs for site reclamation as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $124.8 million and $124.9 million, respectively.
Other—The Company is obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.
13.FAIR VALUE
Fair Value Measurements—Certain acquisitions made by the Company require the payment of contingent amounts of purchase consideration. These payments are contingent on specified operating results being achieved in periods subsequent to the acquisition and will only be made if earn-out thresholds are achieved. Contingent consideration obligations are measured at fair value each reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are recognized in earnings in the period identified.
The fair value of contingent consideration as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was:
April 1, 2023 | December 31, 2022 | ||||||||||
Current portion of acquisition-related liabilities and Accrued expenses: | |||||||||||
Contingent consideration | $ | 336 | $ | 336 | |||||||
Acquisition-related liabilities and Other noncurrent liabilities: | |||||||||||
Contingent consideration | $ | 4,961 | $ | 4,981 |
The fair value of contingent consideration was based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including projected probability-weighted cash payments and a 10.0% discount rate, which reflects a market discount rate. Changes in fair value may occur as a result of a change in actual or projected cash payments, the probability weightings applied by the Company to projected payments or a change in the discount rate. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs in isolation could result in a lower, or higher, fair value measurement. There were no material valuation adjustments to contingent consideration as of April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.
Financial Instruments—The Company’s financial instruments include debt and certain acquisition-related liabilities (deferred consideration and noncompete obligations). The carrying value and fair value of these financial instruments as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was:

(2)Included in current portion of acquisition-related liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
(3)Included in acquisition-related liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
The fair value of debt was determined based on observable, or Level 2, inputs, such as interest rates, bond yields and quoted prices in inactive markets. The fair values of the deferred consideration and noncompete obligations were determined based on unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, including the cash payment terms in the purchase agreements and a discount rate reflecting the Company’s credit risk. The discount rate used is generally consistent with that used when the obligations were initially recorded.
Securities with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents and the fair value of these assets approximates their carrying value.
14.SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has three operating segments: West, East and Cement, which are its reporting segments. These segments are consistent with the Company’s management reporting structure.
The operating results of each segment are regularly reviewed and evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer, our Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM primarily evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments and allocates resources to them based on a segment profit metric that we call Adjusted EBITDA, which is computed as earnings from operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, accretion, and share-based compensation, as well as various other non-recurring, non-cash amounts.
The West and East segments have several subsidiaries that are engaged in various activities including quarry mining, aggregate production and contracting. The Cement segment is engaged in the production of Portland cement. Assets employed by each segment include assets directly identified with those operations. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, property, plant and equipment for corporate operations and other assets not directly identifiable with a reportable business segment. The accounting policies applicable to each segment are consistent with those used in the consolidated financial statements.
The following tables display selected financial data for the Company’s reportable business segments as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022:

SUMMIT MATERIALS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for Summit Materials, LLC and subsidiaries are included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are incorporated by reference herein.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to assist in understanding and assessing the trends and significant changes in our results of operations and financial condition. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events, are based on assumptions and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by these statements. Factors that may cause differences between actual results and those contemplated by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report, and factors discussed in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated interim financial statements and the related notes and other information included in this report.
Overview
Summit’s vision is to be the most socially responsible, integrated construction materials solution provider, collaborating with stakeholders to deliver differentiated innovations and solve our customers’ challenges. Within our markets, we strive to be a market leader by offering customers a single-source provider for construction materials and related downstream products through our vertical integration. Our materials include aggregates, which we supply across the United States, and in British Columbia, Canada, and cement, which we supply to surrounding states along the Mississippi River from Minnesota to Louisiana. In addition to supplying aggregates to customers, we use a portion of our materials internally to produce ready-mix concrete and asphalt paving mix, which may be sold externally or used in our paving and related services businesses. Our vertical integration creates opportunities to increase aggregates volumes, optimize margin at each stage of production and provide customers with efficiency gains, convenience and reliability, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage.
We are organized into 10 operating companies that make up our three distinct operating segments: West, East and Cement, which are also our reporting segments. We operate in 20 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada and currently have assets in 21 U.S. states and in British Columbia, Canada. The map below illustrates our geographic footprint.

Business Trends and Conditions
The U.S. construction materials industry is composed of four primary sectors: aggregates; cement; ready-mix concrete; and asphalt paving mix. Each of these materials is widely used in most forms of construction activity. Participants in these sectors typically range from small, privately-held companies focused on a single material, product or market to publicly traded multinational corporations that offer a wide array of construction materials and services. Competition is constrained in part by the distance materials can be transported efficiently, resulting in predominantly local or regional operations. Due to the lack of product differentiation, competition for all of our products is predominantly based on price and, to a lesser extent, quality of products and service. As a result, the prices we charge our customers are not likely to be materially different from the prices charged by other producers in the same markets. Accordingly, our profitability is generally dependent on the level of demand for our materials and products and our ability to control operating costs. We continue to monitor supply chain issues, as well as inflationary pressures on our raw material inputs as well as labor costs.
Our revenue is derived from multiple end-use markets including public infrastructure construction and private residential and nonresidential construction. Public infrastructure includes spending by federal, state, provincial and local governments for roads, highways, bridges, airports and other infrastructure projects. Public infrastructure projects have historically been a relatively stable portion of state and federal budgets. Residential and nonresidential construction consists of new construction and repair and remodel markets. Any economic stagnation or decline, which could vary by local region and market, could affect our results of operations. Our sales and earnings are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and particularly to cyclical changes in construction spending, especially in the private sector. From a macroeconomic view, we continue to see positive indicators for highway obligations as funds from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (“IIJA”) are beginning to be spent in our markets. We are seeing the impact of rising interest rates and inflation on residential
21
markets in our geographies. Rising interest rates and inflation may also impact our non-residential construction activity in the future as non-residential activity tends to lag behind residential activity by a year or so.
Transportation infrastructure projects, driven by both federal and state funding programs, represent a significant share of the U.S. construction materials market. Federal funds are allocated to the states, which are required to match a portion of the federal funds they receive. Federal highway spending uses funds predominantly from the Federal Highway Trust Fund, which derives its revenue from taxes on diesel fuel, gasoline and other user fees. The dependability of federal funding allows state departments of transportation to plan for their long-term highway construction and maintenance needs. The IIJA provides $1.2 trillion in funding over five years from 2022 through 2026, which includes $347.8 billion for highways, and $91.0 billion for transit.
In 2022, approximately 65% of our revenue was derived from the private construction market, and the remaining revenue from the public markets. We believe residential activity in our key markets will continue to be a driver for volumes in future periods. Funding for public infrastructure projects is expected to remain a high priority.
In addition to federal funding, state, county and local agencies provide highway construction and maintenance funding. Our four largest states by revenue, Texas, Utah, Kansas and Missouri, represented approximately 24%, 17%, 10% and 10%, respectively, of our total revenue in 2022. The following is a summary of key funding initiatives in those states:
•The Texas Department of Transportation (“TXDOT”) Unified Transportation Program (“UTP”) is a long-term planning document, released annually, that guides the development of transportation work over ten years. The total ten-year work program for fiscal years 2023 through 2032 totals $85.06 billion, a 14.3% increase over the prior plan for fiscal years 2022 through 2032. Fiscal year 2023 of the updated plan calls for $13.62 billion in total spending, a 58% increase over fiscal year 2022 of the previous plan.
•The state of Utah anticipates transportation funding of approximately $2.7 billion in fiscal year 2023.
•The Kansas State Transportation Improvement Program projects fiscal year 2023 total expenditures of $2.2 billion, a 25.4% increase over fiscal year 2022. Projected construction expenditures total $1.32 billion, a 29.2% annual increase.
•The state of Missouri anticipates transportation funding of approximately $3.5 billion in fiscal year 2023.
Use and consumption of our products fluctuate due to seasonality. Nearly all of the products used by us, and by our customers, in the private construction and public infrastructure industries are used outdoors. Our highway operations and production and distribution facilities are also located outdoors. Therefore, seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions, in particular extended rainy and cold weather in the spring and fall, as well as major weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms, heavy snows and flooding, can adversely affect our business and operations through a decline in both the use of our products and demand for our services. In addition, construction materials production and shipment levels follow activity in the construction industry, which typically occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Warmer and drier weather during the second and third quarters of our fiscal year typically result in higher activity and revenue levels during those quarters. The first quarter of our fiscal year typically has lower levels of activity due to weather conditions, and the third quarter of our fiscal year typically has the highest levels of activity.
We are subject to commodity price risk with respect to price changes in liquid asphalt and energy, including fossil fuels and electricity for aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and asphalt paving mix production, natural gas for hot mix asphalt production and diesel fuel for distribution vehicles and production related mobile equipment. Liquid asphalt escalator provisions in most of our private and commercial contracts limit our exposure to price fluctuations in this commodity. We often obtain similar escalators on public infrastructure contracts. In addition, we enter into various firm purchase commitments, with terms generally less than one year, for certain raw materials, including diesel fuel.
Backlog
Our products are generally delivered upon receipt of orders or requests from customers, or shortly thereafter. Accordingly, the backlog associated with product sales is converted into revenue within a relatively short period of time. Inventory for products is generally maintained in sufficient quantities to meet rapid delivery requirements of customers. Therefore, a period-over-period increase or decrease of backlog does not necessarily result in an improvement or a deterioration of our business. Our backlog includes only those products and projects for which we have obtained a purchase order or a signed contract with the customer and does not include products purchased and sold or services awarded and provided within the period.

Financial Highlights
The principal factors in evaluating our financial condition and operating results as of and for the three months ended April 1, 2023 as compared to the three months ended April 2, 2022, and certain other highlights include:
•Net revenue increased $14.8 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, primarily resulting from increases in average sales prices which more than offsetting reduced volumes and decreases due to divestitures completed in 2022.
•Our operating loss decreased $18.8 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, as our increases in revenue overcame inflationary impacts on our cost of revenue, mitigated by a $5.6 million decrease in general and administrative expenses resulting from our divestitures.
•In the three months ended April 1, 2023, average sales price increased 20.5%, 14.8%, 15.2% and 24.5% in aggregates, cement, ready-mix concrete and asphalt, respectively.
•In the three months ended April 1, 2023, sales volume decreased 6.2%, 1.2% and 23.4% in aggregates, cement and in ready-mix concrete, respectively, and increased 25.0% in asphalt.
Results of Operations
The following discussion of our results of operations is focused on the key financial measures we use to evaluate the performance of our business from both a consolidated and operating segment perspective. Operating income and margins are discussed in terms of changes in volume, pricing and mix of revenue source (i.e., type of product, sales or service revenue). We focus on operating margin, which we define as operating income as a percentage of net revenue, as a key metric when assessing the performance of the business, as we believe that analyzing changes in costs in relation to changes in revenue provides more meaningful insight into the results of operations than examining costs in isolation.
Operating income (loss) reflects our profit from operations after taking into consideration cost of revenue, general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and gain on sale of property, plant and equipment. Cost of revenue generally increases ratably with revenue, as labor, transportation costs and subcontractor costs are recorded in cost of revenue. As organic volumes increase, we expect our general and administrative costs as a percentage of revenue to decrease. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue vary throughout the year due to the seasonality of our business.

Net revenue increased $14.8 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, due to increases in our average sales price and as well as organic revenue increases in the East and Cement segments, more than offsetting a $18.9 million decrease in net revenue in the East segment related to divestitures. Of the increase in net revenue, $26.7 million was from increased revenue of materials, partially offset by $10.2 million from decreased revenue from products and $1.7 million from decreased service revenue. We experienced organic volume decline of 3.4%, 1.2% and 19.3% in our aggregates, cement and ready-mix concrete lines of business, respectively, while our organic asphalt volumes increased 38.7%. Our organic volume declines in aggregates and ready-mix concrete occurred primarily in the West segment, due to unfavorable winter weather and volume decreases in residential and non-residential markets. We achieved organic price growth across all lines of business during the first quarter of 2023. Additional detail about the impact of acquisitions and divestitures on each segment is presented below where material.
Operating loss decreased by $18.8 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, dues to a combination of increases in average sales price that exceeded inflationary increases in cost of revenue and lower general and administrative expenses resulting from reduced headcount due to divestitures.
Our operating margin percentage for the three months ended April 1, 2023 increased from (8.7)% to (3.8)%, from the comparable period a year ago, due to the factors noted above. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in "Non-GAAP Performance Measures" below, increased by $17.9 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, due to the factors noted above.
As a vertically-integrated company, we include intercompany sales from materials to products and from products to services when assessing the operating results of our business. We refer to revenue inclusive of intercompany sales as gross revenue. These intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Gross revenue by product was as follows:

Revenue from aggregates increased $19.5 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. In the three months ended April 1, 2023 we had strong organic price increases which were offset by a decrease in organic aggregate volumes. Organic aggregate volumes decreased 3.4% in the first three months of 2023 as compared to the same period a year ago, primarily due to moderating demand, as well as unfavorable weather conditions in certain geographies as noted below. Aggregate average sales price of $13.44 per ton increased 20.5% in the first three months of 2023 as compared to the first three months of 2022, due to our focus on increasing prices in the current inflationary environment. We continue to focus on increasing our prices as market conditions allow.
Revenue from cement increased $5.9 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. In the three months ended April 1, 2023, organic cement average sales prices increased 14.8%, due to the current pricing environment as noted above.
Revenue from ready-mix concrete decreased $18.5 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. In the three months ended April 1, 2023, our ready-mix volumes decreased 23.4%, and our average sales prices increased 15.2%. The volume decrease in the three months ended April 1, 2023 occurred primarily in our Intermountain West market due to unfavorable weather and moderating demand in our residential markets, while our price increases occurred across all of our major markets.
Revenue from asphalt increased $9.2 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, primarily due to increased volumes in our North Texas market. In the first three months of 2023, organic volumes increased by 38.7%. In the first three months of 2023, organic pricing increased 20.8%, with strong pricing gains across all our major markets.
Other Financial Information
Interest Expense
Our interest expense was $27.4 million and $20.1 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively. Although our total debt balance has decreased $100.1 million from April 2, 2022 to April 1, 2023, rising interest rates led to higher interest expense in 2023, which is expected to continue during the rest of 2023.
Income Tax Expense
Our income tax benefit was $6.5 million and $4.7 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for Summit Inc. differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to (1) tax depletion expense in excess of the expense recorded under U.S. GAAP, (2) basis differences in assets divested, (3) state taxes, (4) the minority interest in the Summit Holdings partnership that is allocated outside of the Company and (5) various other items such as limitations on meals and entertainment, certain stock compensation and other costs.
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible, as well as consideration of tax-planning strategies we may seek to utilize net operating loss carryforwards that begin to expire in 2030.
As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Summit Inc. had a valuation allowance of $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, which relates to certain deferred tax assets in taxable entities where realization is not more likely than not.

Net revenue in the West segment decreased $1.6 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023 due to net revenue decreases in our ready mix lines of businesses, offset by an increase in our asphalt lines of business. Organic aggregates average sales prices increased 25.0% in the three months ended April 1, 2023, as price increases were implemented across all geographies to offset inflationary factors. Organic aggregate volumes decreased 17.7% in the three month period due, in part, to softness in our residential markets and unfavorable weather in our Intermountain West market, as compared to the first three months of 2022. Organic ready-mix concrete volumes decreased 21.1% while organic ready-mix concrete average sales prices increased 16.1% in the three months ended April 1, 2023. Construction activity is slowing, to varying degrees, across residential markets, including in our two largest, Houston and Salt Lake City, as higher mortgage interest rates are negatively impacting demand and, by extension, dampened home builder activity.
The West segment’s operating income decreased $2.3 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin remained constant. The operating margin percentage in the West segment decreased in the three months ended April 1, 2023 due to unfavorable product mix relative to prior year, as well as ongoing input cost inflation.

Increased average sales prices more than offset a 17.4% decrease in sales volumes in the first quarter of 2023. In the three months ended April 1, 2023, aggregate volumes decreased in all our major markets. Aggregate volume declines in the first quarter of 2023 were primarily attributable to a slowdown in our residential markets as noted above, as well as unfavorable weather in the Intermountain West.
Revenue from ready-mix concrete in the West segment decreased $11.3 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. For the three months ended April 1, 2023, our organic ready-mix concrete volumes decreased 21.1%, which only partially offset increased organic ready-mix concrete prices of 16.1%. For the three months ended April 1, 2023, our organic ready-mix concrete volumes decreased due to unfavorable weather in our Intermountain West geography and reduced residential demand.
Revenue from asphalt in the West segment increased $10.2 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. For the three months ended April 1, 2023, asphalt volumes increased 40.9% due primarily to growth in North Texas. Average sales prices for asphalt increased 24.1% in the three months ended April 1, 2023. Revenue for paving and related services in the West segment increased by $4.9 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023.
Prior to eliminations of intercompany transactions, the net effect of volume and pricing changes on gross revenue in the three months ended April 1, 2023 was approximately $(6.9) million and $8.4 million, respectively.

Net revenue in the East segment increased $8.5 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, as compared to the same period a year ago, primarily due to increased aggregate volumes and price. The increases in net revenue more than offset the impact from divestitures during 2022 of $18.9 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023. Operating income increased $13.7 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, as increases in average sales prices exceeded inflationary increases in our cost of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA increased $10.7 million in the three months ended April 1, 2023, which benefited from the timing of 2022 divestitures, contributing $5.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the three months ended April 1, 2023. Operating income margin increased to 2.5% from (9.7)% in the three months ended April 1, 2023, as compared to the same period a year ago as the impact of our Elevate Summit strategy to divest underperforming businesses is being realized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity include cash on-hand, cash provided by operations, amounts available for borrowing under our senior secured credit facilities and capital-raising activities in the debt and capital markets. In addition to our current sources of liquidity, we have access to liquidity through public offerings of shares of our Class A common stock. To facilitate such offerings, in January 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC that will expire in January 2026. The amount of Class A common stock to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed and there is no specific limit on the amount we may issue. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of the proceeds thereof, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.
As of April 1, 2023, we had $379.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $630.4 million of working capital compared to $520.5 million and $762.5 million, respectively, at December 31, 2022. Working capital is calculated as current assets less current liabilities. There were no restricted cash balances as of April 1, 2023 or December 31, 2022. In January 2023, we amended our senior secured revolving credit facility, increasing the total availability to $395.0 million and extending the maturity date to January 2028. We had no outstanding borrowings on our senior secured revolving credit facility, which had borrowing capacity of $373.9 million as of April 1, 2023, which is net of $21.1 million of outstanding letters of credit and is fully available to us within the terms and covenant requirements of our credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Agreement”).
In March 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, whereby we can repurchase up to $250.0 million of our Class A common stock. During the fiscal year 2022, we repurchased 3.4 million shares of Class A common stock for $101.0 million. No repurchases were made during the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023. As of April 1, 2023, approximately $149.0 million remained available for share repurchases under the share repurchase program.
Given the seasonality of our business, we typically experience significant fluctuations in working capital needs and balances throughout the year. Our working capital requirements generally increase during the first half of the year as we build up inventory and focus on repair and maintenance and other set-up costs for the upcoming season. Working capital levels then decrease as the construction season winds down and we enter the winter months, which is when we see significant inflows of cash from the collection of receivables.
As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our long-term borrowings totaled $1.5 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, for which we incurred $24.3 million and $17.7 million of interest expense for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively. We expect that normal operating cash flow will be sufficient to fund our seasonal working capital needs. We had no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility as of April 1, 2023.
We believe we have access to sufficient financial resources from our liquidity sources to fund our business and operations, including contractual obligations, capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for at least the next twelve
29
months. Our growth strategy contemplates future acquisitions for which we believe we have sufficient access to capital. We also plan to divest of certain dilutive businesses as we rationalize our portfolio, which will also generate additional capital.
We and our affiliates may from time to time purchase our outstanding debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Purchases or retirement of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Indebtedness
Please refer to the notes to the consolidated interim financial statements for detailed information about our long-term debt, scheduled maturities of long-term debt and affirmative and negative covenants, including the maximum allowable consolidated first lien net leverage ratio. As of April 1, 2023, we were in compliance with all debt covenants. At April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $1.5 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, of total debt was outstanding under our respective debt agreements. Due to our ongoing divestiture program, prepayments of the term loan may be required.

•Net loss of $31.2 million, decreased by non-cash expenses, including $53.9 million of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense and $4.7 million of share-based compensation, offset by the net gain on asset and business divestitures of $0.9 million.
•Billed and unbilled accounts receivable decreased by $12.5 million in the first three months of 2023 as a result of the seasonality of our business. The majority of our sales occur in the spring, summer and fall and we typically incur an increase in accounts receivable (net billed and unbilled) during the second and third quarters of each year. This amount is typically converted to cash in the fourth and first quarters. Our inventory levels also increased during the first quarter as we prepared for the increase in activity over the warmer months.
•The timing of payments associated with accounts payable and accrued expenses of cash, which is consistent with the seasonality of our business whereby we build-up inventory levels and incur repairs and maintenance costs to ready the business for increased sales volumes in the summer and fall. These costs are typically incurred in the first half of the year and paid by year-end. In addition, we made $38.0 million of interest payments in the three months ended April 1, 2023.
During the three months ended April 2, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $16.7 million primarily as a result of:
•Net loss of $34.8 million, decreased by non-cash expenses, including $54.8 million of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense and $5.4 million of share-based compensation, offset by the net gain on asset and business disposals of $15.7 million.
•Billed and unbilled accounts receivable decreased by $29.4 million in the first three months of 2022 as a result of the seasonality of our business. The majority of our sales occur in the spring, summer and fall and we typically incur an increase in accounts receivable (net billed and unbilled) during the second and third quarters of each year.
30
This amount is typically converted to cash in the fourth and first quarters. Our inventory levels decreased during the second quarter as business activity increased during the quarter.
•The timing of payments associated with accounts payable and accrued expenses of cash, which is consistent with the seasonality of our business whereby we build-up inventory levels and incur repairs and maintenance costs to ready the business for increased sales volumes in the summer and fall. These costs are typically incurred in the first half of the year and paid by year-end. In addition, we made $31.8 million of interest payments in the three months ended April 2, 2022.
Investing activities
During the three months ended April 1, 2023, cash used for investing activities was $118.3 million, of which $63.6 million was invested in capital expenditures and $55.5 million was used for a purchase of a business in our West segment, and was partially offset by $1.8 million of proceeds from asset sales.
During the three months ended April 2, 2022, cash used for investing activities was $9.4 million, of which $57.8 million was invested in capital expenditures, which was partially offset by $47.8 million of proceeds from the sale of a business in the East segment, as well as $1.4 million of proceeds from asset sales.
Financing activities
During the three months ended April 1, 2023, cash used in financing activities was $23.1 million. We made $4.4 million of payments on debt, $11.4 million payments on acquisition-related liabilities and used $5.7 million on shares redeemed to settle taxes on restricted stock units.
During the three months ended April 2, 2022, cash used in financing activities was $67.7 million. We made $7.6 million of payments on debt, $11.4 million payments on acquisition-related liabilities and used $47.5 million to repurchase shares of Class A common stock.
Cash paid for capital expenditures
We paid cash of approximately $63.6 million in capital expenditures in the three months ended April 1, 2023 compared to $57.8 million in the three months ended April 2, 2022.
We currently estimate that we will invest between $220 million to $240 million inclusive of spend associated with greenfield projects. The timing of our greenfield expenditures is dependent upon the timing of when permits may be issued. We expect to fund our capital expenditure program through cash on hand, cash from operations, and outside financing arrangements including our revolving credit facility.
Tax Receivable Agreement
When the Company purchases LP Units for cash or LP Units are exchanged for shares of Class A common stock, this results in increases in the Company’s share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Summit Holdings. These increases in tax basis may increase, for tax purposes, depreciation and amortization deductions and therefore reduce the amount of tax that Summit Inc. would otherwise be required to pay in the future. In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into a TRA with the holders of the LP Units that provides for the payment by Summit Inc. to exchanging holders of LP Units of 85% of the benefits, if any, that Summit Inc. actually realizes (or, under certain circumstances such as an early termination of the TRA is deemed to realize) as a result of these increases in tax basis and certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. The increases in tax basis as a result of an exchange of LP Units for shares of Class A common stock, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, are difficult to accurately estimate, as they will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of the exchanges, the price of our Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, the extent to which the exchanges are taxable, the amount and timing of our income and the effective tax rate.
We anticipate funding payments under the TRA from cash flows from operations, available cash and available borrowings under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facilities. As of April 1, 2023, we had accrued $327.8 million as TRA liability in our consolidated financial statements. Of the total TRA liability, $5.2 million is expected to be paid in the next twelve months.
31
Based upon a $28.49 per share price of our Class A common stock, the closing price of our stock on the last trading day of the three months ended April 1, 2023, and a contractually defined discount rate of 6.31%, we estimate that if Summit Inc. were to exercise its right to terminate the TRA, the aggregate amount required to settle the TRA would be approximately $254.8 million. Estimating the amount and the timing of payments that may be made under the TRA is by its nature difficult and imprecise, insofar as the amounts payable depends on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the timing of future exchanges, our stock price at the date of the exchange and the timing of the generation of future taxable income. The increases in tax basis as a result of an exchange, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, will vary depending on a variety of factors.
Commitments and contingencies
We are party to certain legal actions arising from the ordinary course of business activities. Accruals are recorded when the outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management expects that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. We record legal fees as incurred.
Environmental Remediation—Our operations are subject to and affected by federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the environment, health and safety and other regulatory matters. These operations require environmental operating permits, which are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. We regularly monitor and review its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of our business, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses and there can be no assurance that environmental liabilities and noncompliance will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Other—We are obligated under various firm purchase commitments for certain raw materials and services that are in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect any significant changes in the market value of these goods and services during the commitment period that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The terms of the purchase commitments generally approximate one year.
Off-Balance sheet arrangements
As of April 1, 2023, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Non-GAAP Performance Measures
We evaluate our operating performance using metrics that we refer to as “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA Margin,” “Adjusted Cash Gross Profit” and “Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin” which are not defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by U.S. GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted to exclude accretion, loss on debt financings, gain on sale of business, non-cash compensation and certain other non-cash and non-operating items. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. We define Adjusted Cash Gross Profit as operating income before general and administrative expenses, depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion and Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin as Adjusted Cash Gross Profit as a percentage of net revenue.
We present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Cash Gross Profit and Adjusted Cash Gross Profit Margin for the convenience of investment professionals who use such metrics in their analyses. The investment community often uses these metrics to assess the operating performance of a company’s business and to provide a consistent comparison of performance from period to period. We use these metrics, among others, to assess the operating performance of our individual segments and the consolidated company.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare such financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
The tables below reconcile our net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, present Adjusted EBITDA by segment and reconcile operating income to Adjusted Cash Gross Profit for the periods indicated:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
33
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period.
Please refer to “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” described in “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of our Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 16, 2023, from which there have been no material changes.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions that are entered into in the normal course of business. Our operations are highly dependent upon the interest rate-sensitive construction industry as well as the general economic environment. Consequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs. For a discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, please refer to the Annual Report from which our exposure to market risk has not materially changed.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Summit Inc. and Summit LLC maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Summit Inc.’s and Summit LLC’s reports under the Exchange Act, 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 Summit Inc.’s and Summit LLC's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Summit Inc.’s and Summit LLC’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Summit Inc.’s disclosure controls and procedures as of April 1, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, Summit Inc.’s and Summit LLC’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of April 1, 2023, Summit Inc.’s and Summit LLC’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in Summit Inc.’s or Summit LLC’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during their last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, their internal control over financial reporting.
