NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

On the Effective Date, Masco completed the Separation of its Services Business from its other businesses. On the Effective Date, TopBuild became an independent public company which holds, through its consolidated subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities of the Services Business. The Separation was achieved through the distribution of 100 percent of the outstanding capital stock of TopBuild to holders of Masco common stock. TopBuild is a Delaware corporation and trades on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.”

These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

We report our business in two segments: Installation and Distribution. Our Installation segment primarily installs insulation and other building products. Our Distribution segment primarily sells and distributes insulation and other building products. Our segments are based on our operating units, for which financial information is regularly evaluated by our corporate operating executives.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2017, our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2016, was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Financial Statement Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been developed in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2016 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2017 classifications with no impact on previously reported net income or equity.

Business Combinations. The purchase price for business combinations is allocated to the estimated fair values of acquired tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, and assumed liabilities, where applicable. Additionally, we recognize customer relationships, trademarks and trade names, and non-competition agreements as identifiable intangible assets. These assets are recorded at fair value as of the transaction date. The fair value of these intangible assets is determined primarily using the income approach and using current industry information. Goodwill is recorded when consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities. Measurement-period adjustments are recorded in the period they occur. Contingent consideration is recorded at fair value at the acquisition date.

Share-based Compensation. Our share-based compensation program currently consists of RSAs and Options. Share-based compensation expense is reported in selling, general, and administrative expense. We do not capitalize any compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards. The income tax benefits and deficiencies associated with share-based awards are reported as a component of income tax expense. Excess tax benefits and deficiencies are included in cash provided by (used in) operating activities while shares withheld for tax-withholding are reported in financing activities under the caption “Taxes withheld and paid on employees’ equity awards” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Award forfeitures are accounted for in the period they occur.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

In July 2015 the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” Under this guidance, inventory should be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. We adopted this guidance in the beginning of the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:

In May 2014 the FASB issued a new standard for revenue recognition, ASC 606. Subsequent to issuing ASC 606, the FASB issued a number of updates and technical improvements which do not change the core principles of the guidance. The purpose of ASC 606 is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability across industries. ASC 606 is effective for us beginning January 1, 2018, and allows for full retrospective or modified retrospective methods of adoption; early adoption is permitted. In determining the applicability of ASC 606, we considered the general nature of our orders is short-term, based on a single deliverable, and not accounted for under industry-specific guidance. We reviewed our revenue streams at both our Installation and Distribution segments. Our current assessment indicates that the adoption of the standard will likely not have a material impact on the amount or timing of our revenue recognition process. Additional disclosures related to our revenues, contract balances, and judgments affecting recognition will be required. We plan to apply the modified retrospective approach to transition to the new guidance, which would allow us to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We do not plan to early adopt the standard. We will continue to evaluate additional changes, modifications, clarifications, or interpretations issued by the FASB, which may impact our current conclusions.

In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” This standard requires a lessee to recognize most leases on its balance sheet. Companies are required to use a modified retrospective transition method for all existing leases. This standard is effective for us beginning January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet selected an adoption date and we are currently evaluating the effect on our financial position and results of operations.

TOPBUILD CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.” This guidance introduces a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for the recognition of impairment losses on financial assets, including trade receivables. The CECL model replaces current GAAP’s incurred loss model. Under CECL, companies will record an allowance through current earnings for the expected credit loss for the life of the financial asset upon initial recognition of the financial asset. This update is effective for us at the beginning of 2020 with early adoption permitted at the beginning of 2019. We have not yet selected an adoption date and we are currently evaluating the effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The new standard narrows the definition of a business and provides a framework for evaluation. This update is effective for us beginning January 1, 2018 and will be applied prospectively. We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017 the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The new standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step of the good will impairment test. This update is effective for us beginning January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted and the new standard will be applied on a prospective basis. We have not yet selected an adoption date and we are currently evaluating the effect on our financial position and results of operations.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT

On May 5, 2017, we and the Guarantors entered into a New Credit Agreement with the Lenders. All obligations under the New Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors, and all obligations under the New Credit Agreement, including the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the assets of us and the Guarantors.

Table of Contents

TOPBUILD CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Interest payable on borrowings under the New Credit Agreement is based on an applicable margin rate plus, at our option, either:

A base rate determined by reference to the highest of either (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50 percent, (ii) Bank of America’s “prime rate,” or (iii) the LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar deposits with a term of one month, plus 1.00 percent; or

A LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for deposits in U.S. dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowings.

The applicable margin rate is determined based on our Total Leverage Ratio. In the case of base rate borrowings, the applicable margin rate ranges from 0.00 percent to 1.50 percent and in the case of LIBOR rate borrowings, the applicable margin ranges from 1.00 percent to 2.50 percent.

We are required to pay commitment fees to the Lenders in respect of any unutilized commitments. The commitment fees range from 0.15 percent to 0.275 percent per annum, depending on our Total Leverage Ratio. We must also pay customary fees on outstanding letters of credit.

We used a portion of the proceeds from the term loan under the New Credit Agreement to repay all amounts outstanding under the Old Credit Agreement. The remaining proceeds were used to fund our 2017 Repurchase program, to make additional acquisitions, and for general operating purposes. Upon executing the New Credit Agreement, we terminated the Old Credit Agreement and all associated agreements and instruments.

In conjunction with the New Credit Agreement, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which is reflected under the caption, “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table outlines the key terms of our New Credit Agreement, dollars in thousands:


	New Credit Agreement
Senior secured term loan facility (original borrowing) (a)	$	250,000
Additional term loan capacity under delayed draw feature (b)	$	100,000

Additional term loan and/or revolver capacity available under incremental facility (c)	$	200,000

Revolving Facility	$	250,000
Sublimit for issuance of letters of credit under Revolving Facility (d)	$	100,000
Sublimit for swingline loans under Revolving Facility (d)	$	20,000

Interest rate as of September 30, 2017		2.74	%
Scheduled maturity date		5/05/2022

(a)

The New Credit Agreement provides for a term loan limit of $350.0 million; $250.0 million was drawn on May 5, 2017.

(b)

We can access $100.0 million through a delayed draw term loan on the New Credit Agreement until May 5, 2018. We have not determined the timing or amounts of our delayed draws, if any.

(c)

Additional borrowing capacity is available under the incremental facility, subject to certain terms and conditions (including existing or new lenders providing commitments in respect of such additional borrowing capacity).

(d)

Use of the sublimits for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans reduces the availability under the Revolving Facility.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are prepayable at the Company’s option without premium or penalty. The Company is required to make prepayments with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales and certain extraordinary receipts.

The New Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness or liens; to make certain investments or loans; to make certain restricted payments; to enter into consolidations, mergers, sales of material assets, and other fundamental changes; to transact with affiliates; to enter into agreements restricting the ability of subsidiaries to incur liens or pay dividends; or to make certain accounting changes. The New Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

The New Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a Net Leverage Ratio and minimum FCCR throughout the term of the agreement. The following table sets forth the maximum Net Leverage Ratios and minimum FCCR:

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value measurement standard defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an “exit price”). Authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures clarifies that a fair value measurement for a liability should reflect the entity’s non-performance risk. In addition, a fair value hierarchy is established that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Fair Value on Recurring Basis

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. We measure our contingent consideration liabilities related to business combinations at fair value. For more information see Note 12 – Business Combinations.

Fair Value on Non-Recurring Basis

Fair value measurements were applied to our long-term debt. The carrying value of our long-term debt approximates the fair market value primarily due to the fact that the non-performance risk of servicing our debt obligations, as reflected in our business and credit risk profile, has not materially changed since we assumed our debt obligations under the New Credit Agreement. In addition, due to the floating-rate nature of our long-term debt, the market value is not subject to variability solely due to changes in the general level of interest rates as is the case with a fixed-rate debt obligation. During the periods presented, there were no transfers between fair value hierarchical levels.

7. OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation. During the first quarter of 2017 we recognized a $30 million expense for a legal settlement with Owens Corning in connection with a breach of contract action related to our termination of an insulation supply contract. Under the terms of the settlement, we paid Owens Corning $30 million. The settlement resulted in the dismissal of the lawsuit filed in May 2016 in Toledo, Ohio. The settlement is reflected in the significant legal settlement line item within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The settlement is also reflected in our installation segment’s year-to-date operating results.

We are subject to certain claims, charges, litigation, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, including those arising from or related to contractual matters, intellectual property, personal injury, environmental matters, product liability, product recalls, construction defects, insurance coverage, personnel and employment disputes, antitrust, and other matters, including class actions. We believe we have adequate defenses in these matters and we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on us. However, there is no assurance that we will prevail in any of these pending matters, and we could in the future incur judgments, enter into settlements of claims, or revise our expectations regarding the outcome of these matters, which could materially impact our liquidity and our results of operations.

Other Matters. We enter into contracts which include customary indemnities that are standard for the industries in which we operate. Such indemnities include, among other things, customer claims against builders for issues relating to our products and workmanship. In conjunction with divestitures and other transactions, we occasionally provide customary indemnities relating to various items including, among others: the enforceability of trademarks; legal and environmental issues; and asset valuations. We evaluate the probability that we may incur liabilities under these customary indemnities and appropriately record an estimated liability when deemed probable.

We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. Other types of bonds outstanding were principally license and insurance related.

8. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rates were 33.4 percent and 33.8 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were 35.2 percent and 37.1 percent, respectively. The lower 2017 rates were due to discrete benefits related to share-based compensation, an increase in the amount of the Domestic Production Activities Deduction, and from return to accrual adjustments for tax returns filed in 2017 related to 2016.

A tax benefit of $1.6 million and $2.6 million related to share-based compensation was recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a discrete item in income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

9. INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents.

Diluted net income per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury stock method.

Basic and diluted income per share were computed as follows, in thousands, except share and per share amounts:

10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Our eligible employees currently participate in the 2015 LTIP. The 2015 LTIP authorizes the Board to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance awards, and dividend equivalents. All grants are made by issuing new shares and no more than 4.0 million shares of common stock may be issued under the 2015 LTIP. As of September 30, 2017, we had 2.7 million shares available under the 2015 LTIP.

11. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On March 1, 2016, our Board authorized the 2016 Repurchase Program, which expired on February 28, 2017. We repurchased a total of 788,399 shares for an approximate cost of $26.6 million, or $33.72 per share, under the 2016 Repurchase Plan.

On February 24, 2017, our Board authorized the 2017 Repurchase Program, pursuant to which we may purchase up to $200 million of our common stock. Share repurchases under the 2017 Repurchase Program may be executed through various means including, without limitation, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The 2017 Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to purchase any shares and expires February 24, 2019. The 2017 Repurchase Program may be terminated, increased, or decreased by our Board at its discretion at any time.

The following table sets forth our share repurchases under the 2016 and 2017 Share Repurchase Programs:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Number of shares purchased		1,507,443		188,068		2,365,836		341,500
Share repurchase cost (in thousands)	$	100,000	$	6,415	$	139,286	$	11,377

On May 5, 2017, under the 2017 Repurchase Program, we entered into the 2017 ASR Agreement. When the agreement became effective on July 5, 2017, we paid BofA $100.0 million in exchange for an initial delivery of 1.5 million shares of our common stock, representing an estimated 80 percent of the total number of shares we expect to receive under the 2017 ASR Agreement. The actual number of shares repurchased under the 2017 ASR Agreement will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices paid for our common stock during the term of the transaction, less an agreed discount, and subject to potential adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the agreement. The final settlement of the transaction under the agreement is expected to occur no later than the first quarter of 2018. At final settlement, BofA may be required to deliver additional shares of common stock to us, or, under certain circumstances, we may be required to deliver shares of our common stock or to make a cash payment, at our election, to BofA.

12. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

As part of our strategy to supplement our organic growth and expand our access to additional markets and products, we made several acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Each acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” Acquisition related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively and are included in selling, general,

As third party or internal valuations are finalized, certain tax aspects of the transaction are completed, and customer post-closing reviews are concluded, adjustments may be made to the fair value of assets acquired, and in some cases total purchase price, through the end of each measurement period, generally one year from the acquisition date. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 we evaluated certain data related to our intangible assets and as a result recorded an adjustment of $7.1m to increase our customer relationships intangible assets. Other insignificant adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired, and in some cases total purchase price, have been made to certain business combinations since the date of acquisition.

Goodwill to be recognized in connection with these acquisitions is attributable to the synergies expected to be realized and improvements in the businesses after the acquisitions. The goodwill will be recognized entirely by our Installation segment. All of the $32.0 million of goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Contingent Consideration

The acquisition of EcoFoam includes a contingent consideration arrangement that requires additional consideration to be paid by TopBuild to the sellers of EcoFoam based on certain future revenues of EcoFoam over a three-year period. The range of the undiscounted amounts TopBuild may be required to pay under the contingent consideration agreement is between zero and $2.5 million. The fair value of the contingent consideration recognized on the acquisition date of $2.1 million was estimated by applying the income approach using discounted cash flows. That measure is based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market. The significant assumption includes a discount rate of 9.5%.

Contingent consideration is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in accrued liabilities and other liabilities. Adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration are reflected in selling, general, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are included in the acquisition related costs above.

The following table presents the fair value of contingent consideration as of September 30, 2017, in thousands:

13. CLOSURE COSTS

We continually evaluate our national footprint to ensure we are strategically located throughout the U.S. to serve our customers and position ourselves for continued growth. As a result of this evaluation, management approved a plan to consolidate certain back-office support operations to our Daytona Beach, Florida, Branch Support Center. We recognize expenses related to closures and position eliminations at the time of announcement or notification. Such costs included termination and other severance benefits, lease abandonment costs, and other transition costs. Closure costs are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as selling, general, and administrative expense. Accrued closure costs are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as accrued liabilities. We expect to pay the remaining lease termination and other accrued closure costs within twelve months.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

TopBuild, headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is the leading purchaser, installer, and distributor of insulation products to the U.S. construction industry, based on revenue. We trade on the NYSE under the symbol “BLD.”

We operate in two segments: Installation (TruTeam) and Distribution (Service Partners). Our Installation segment installs insulation and other building products nationwide through our TruTeam contractor services business, which has over 175 branches located in 41 states. We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, blown-in loose fill cellulose, and polyurethane spray foam. Additionally, we install other building products including rain gutters, garage doors, fireplaces, shower enclosures, and closet shelving. We handle every stage of the installation process, including procurement of material from leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.

Our Distribution segment sells and distributes insulation and other building products, including rain gutters, fireplaces, closet shelving, and roofing materials through our Service Partners business, which has over 70 branches in 32 states. Our Service Partners customer base consists of thousands of insulation contractors of all sizes, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.

We believe that having both TruTeam and Service Partners provides us with a number of distinct competitive advantages. First, the combined buying power of our two business segments, along with our national scale, strengthens our ties to the major manufacturers of insulation and other building products. This helps to ensure we are buying competitively and ensures the availability of supply to our local branches and distribution centers. The overall effect is driving efficiencies through our supply chain. Second, being a leader in both installation and distribution allows us to more effectively reach a broader set of builder customers, regardless of their size or geographic location in the U.S., and leverage housing growth wherever it occurs. Third, during industry downturns, many insulation contractors who buy directly from manufacturers during industry peaks return to purchasing through distributors. As a result, this helps to reduce our exposure to cyclical swings in our business.

For additional details pertaining to our operating results by segment see Note 6 – Segment Information in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Sales and Operations

Net sales increased 7.9 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017, from the comparable period of 2016. The increase was principally driven by our seven acquisitions completed during 2017 and 2016, increased organic sales volume, and increased selling prices. Our sales benefited from the overall continued improvement in the housing market, as well as our continued focus on organically growing our residential and commercial activity.

The following table details our same branch sales and sales from acquired businesses, in thousands:

Total	$	489,044	$	453,102

(a)

We define same branch sales as sales from branches in operation for at least 12 full calendar months.

Our gross profit margins were 24.7 percent and 23.9 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Gross profit margin was positively impacted by favorable leverage on overall higher sales volume, improved selling prices, and improved labor productivity, partially offset by higher health insurance costs and higher material cost.

Table of Contents

Selling, general, and administrative expense, as a percent of sales, was 14.6 percent and 15.2 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Decreased selling, general, and administrative expense as a percent of sales was a result of better absorption of fixed costs, lower bonus expense, and lower legal expense, partially offset by higher share-based compensation and higher salaries expense. Operating margins were 10.1 percent and 8.6 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in operating margins was a result of better absorption of fixed costs, overall increased sales volume, improved selling prices, improved labor productivity, and lower bonus expense, partially offset by higher material cost, higher share-based compensation, and higher salaries expense.

Closure and Related Costs

We incurred expense of $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017, related to the consolidation of certain back-office operations to our Daytona Beach, Florida, Branch Support Center.

Table of Contents

Operating results

Operating margins in the Installation segment were 12.3 percent and 10.7 percent for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in operating margins was a result of increased sales volume and related absorption of fixed costs, a 1.5 percent increase in selling prices, improved sales productivity, lower bonus expense, as well as the benefits associated with cost savings initiatives, partially offset by higher material cost and higher amortization expense.

Distribution

Sales

Sales in the Distribution segment increased $7.0 million, or 4.0 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction as well as a 1.0 percent increase in selling prices.

OTHER ITEMS

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $2.5 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily related to our higher outstanding long-term debt balance related to our debt refinancing completed on May 5, 2017.

Income tax expense from continuing operations

Income tax expense from continuing operations was $15.7 million, an ETR of 33.4 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $13.3 million, an ETR of 35.2 percent, for the comparable period in 2016. The lower 2017 rate was due to a discrete benefit related to share-based compensation and an increase in the amount of the Domestic Production Activities Deduction.

Table of Contents

Operating results

Operating margins in the Installation segment were 7.1 percent and 8.0 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease in operating margins was a result of the $30 million legal settlement with Owens Corning, as well as legal fee expense. The decrease was partially offset by increased sales volume and related absorption of fixed costs, higher selling prices, improved sales productivity, as well as the benefits associated with cost savings initiatives. Exclusive of the significant legal settlement, operating margins were 10.3 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Distribution

Sales

Sales in the Distribution segment increased $27.2 million, or 5.4 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction. Sales were partially offset by a 0.6 percent decrease in selling prices.

Operating results

Operating margins in the Distribution segment were 9.7 percent and 8.7 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Operating margins were positively impacted by increased sales volume related to a higher level of activity in new home construction as well as improved labor productivity partially offset by lower selling prices.

OTHER ITEMS

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, which primarily consisted of interest expense, was $6.6 million and $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in other expense, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily related to a $1.1 million loss on extinguishment of debt as well our higher outstanding long-term debt balance related to our debt refinancing completed on May 5, 2017. Utilizing our current interest rate of 2.74 percent as of September 30, 2017, our expected interest expense, including the amortization of debt issuance costs and other fees, is estimated to be $2.4 million for the remaining three months of 2017.

Income tax expense from continuing operations

Income tax expense from continuing operations was $27.1 million, an ETR of 33.8 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $30.2 million, an ETR of 37.1 percent, for the comparable period in 2016. The lower rate was primarily due to a discrete benefit related to share-based compensation and an increase in the amount of the Domestic Production Activities Deduction.

(a)

Sales for the trailing 12 months have been adjusted for the pro forma effect of acquired branches

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $54.6 million and $27.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase was due to the satisfaction of payables during the first nine months of 2016 related to strategic inventory purchases in the fourth quarter of 2015 which were not replicated in 2016, as well as nominal changes to payment terms for select suppliers which accelerated payments in 2016. The increase in the generation of cash for prepaid expenses and other current assets related to a change in our prepaid income tax account tied to the timing of estimated tax payments. The generators of cash were partially offset by the change in the inventory balances as discussed hereafter. The aforementioned strategic inventory purchase in the fourth quarter of 2015, which was not replicated in 2016, resulted in a higher inventory balance as of December 31, 2015, which was not duplicated as of December 31, 2016, thereby resulting in a smaller generator of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with the similar period in 2016. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016, our working capital was 10.0 percent and 8.9 percent of net sales for the trailing twelve months, adjusted for the pro forma effect of our acquired companies, respectively. Working capital increased $36.0 million to $189.5 million at September 30, 2017, compared to September 30, 2016. The increase in working capital as a percentage of net sales for the trailing 12 months was primarily due to acquired receivables from commercial activity which has longer collection terms, inefficiencies in acquired companies collections processes, increased receivables driven by higher organic commercial sales mix which comes with longer collection terms, relative to the trailing 12 months’ net sales collections processes as well as adverse weather conditions incurred during the month of September 2017 affecting our collections process, partially offset by an increase in our accounts payable balance related to improved management of our supplier payments.

Net cash used in investing activities was $96.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily comprised of $84.0 million for the acquisitions of substantially all of the assets of Midwest, EcoFoam, MR Insulfoam, Capital, Superior, and Canyon and $13.1 million for purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $0.5 million of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $13.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily comprised of $10.1 million of purchases of property and equipment and $3.5 million for the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Valley, partially offset by $0.4 million of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in financing activities was $74.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We received $250 million of proceeds from issuance of long-term debt related to our New Credit Agreement. We used $175 million of the proceeds to pay off all amounts outstanding under our Old Credit Agreement, we used $139.3 million of cash for common stock repurchases related to our share repurchase programs including our ASR program, $5.0 million of repayments of our previous long-term debt, $3.1 million of payments for our New Credit Agreement, $2.2 million for payment of debt issuance costs, and $4.5 million for purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of share-based incentive awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We drew $170.0 million on our revolving credit facility and made repayments of $165.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Net cash used in financing activities was $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily comprised of $11.4 million of repurchases of our common stock related to our $50 million share repurchase program announced in March 2016, $10.0 million of repayments of our long-term debt, and $1.7 million of purchases of common stock for tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of share-based incentive awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

We have access to liquidity through our cash from operations and available borrowing capacity under our New Credit Agreement, which provides for borrowing and/or standby letter of credit issuances of up to $250 million under a Revolving Facility as well as $100 million of additional term loan capacity under a delayed draw feature. We believe that our cash flows from operations, combined with our current cash levels and available borrowing capacity, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations and to fund our debt service requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital for at least the next 12 months. Cash flows are seasonally stronger in the third and fourth quarters as a result of increased new construction activity.

We occasionally use performance bonds to ensure completion of our work on certain larger customer contracts that can span multiple accounting periods. Performance bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. We also have bonds outstanding for licensing and insurance.

OUTLOOK

In general, the residential and commercial new construction industries are continuing to recover. Household formations and the available housing supply point towards continued growth in new home construction. Increasing rental demand across multiple markets has led to an increase in multi-family housing construction and the demand for commercial space is also increasing. However, residential construction activity remains below historical averages. We believe a number of factors, including credit availability, student debt, labor availability, and attitudes towards home ownership will continue to cause volatility in the housing market.

Our 2017 full year revenue outlook is estimated between $1.890 billion and $1.905 billion. This outlook reflects our current view of present and future market conditions and is based on assumptions such as housing starts. This outlook does not include any effects related to potential acquisitions or divestitures that may occur after the date of this filing. Factors that could cause actual 2017 results to differ materially from our current expectations are discussed below and are also detailed in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent SEC reports.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales, costs, and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2017.

APPLICATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Information regarding application of new accounting standards is incorporated by reference from Note 2 – Accounting Policies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about our future performance constitute “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. We caution you against unduly relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Our future performance may be affected by our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial construction; our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; our ability to attract, develop, and retain talented personnel and our sales and labor force; our ability to maintain consistent practices across our locations; our ability to maintain our competitive position; and our ability to realize the expected benefits of the Separation. We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC. Our forward-looking statements in this filing speak only as of the date of this filing. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our New Credit Agreement became effective on May 5, 2017. The Credit Agreement consists of a senior secured term loan facility in the amount of $250 million, $100 million of additional term loan capacity under a delayed draw feature, and a revolving facility in the amount of $250 million.

Interest payable on both the term loan facility and revolving facility is based on a variable interest rate. As a result, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness. Based on the current interest rate, as of September 30, 2017, of 2.74 percent under the senior secured term loan facility, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would result in a $2.4 million increase in our annualized interest expense.

There was an outstanding balance of $5.0 million under the Revolving Facility as of September 30, 2017. Based on the current interest rate, as of September 30, 2017, of 2.74 percent and assuming we held a $5.0 million outstanding balance for the revolving credit facility, a 100 basis point increase would result in a $0.1 million increase in our annualized interest expense.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) in the most recent fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
