TOPBUILD CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

TopBuild was formed on June 30, 2015, and is listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “BLD.”  We report our business in two segments: Installation and Specialty Distribution.  Our Installation segment primarily installs insulation and other building products.  Our Specialty 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 chief operating decision maker.

We believe the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to state fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2023, our results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.  The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

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 for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Financial Statement Presentation.  Our 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 periods.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.  All intercompany transactions between TopBuild entities have been eliminated.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”.  This standard improves the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability, as well as payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. This standard became effective for us on January 1, 2023, and did not have a material impact to our financial statements upon adoption.

3.  REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue is disaggregated between our Installation and Specialty Distribution segments and further based on market and product, as we believe this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

The aggregate amount remaining on uncompleted performance obligations was $395.5 million as of March 31, 2023. We expect to satisfy the performance obligations and recognize revenue on substantially all of these uncompleted contracts over the next 18 months.

On certain of our long-term contracts, a percentage of the total project cost is withheld and not invoiced to the customer and collected until satisfactory completion of the customers project, typically within a year.  This amount is referred to as retainage and is common practice in the construction industry.  Retainage receivables are classified as a component of Receivables, net on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and were $66.7 million and $63.0 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

4.  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

We have two reporting units which are also our operating and reporting segments: Installation and Specialty Distribution. Both reporting units contain goodwill. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are assigned to the applicable reporting unit based on whether the acquired assets and liabilities relate to the operations of and determination of the fair value of such unit.  Goodwill assigned to the reporting unit is the excess of the fair value of the acquired business over the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the reporting unit.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, we performed an annual assessment on our goodwill resulting in no impairment and there were no indicators of impairment for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

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

Interest payable on borrowings under the 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) BofA’s “prime rate,” and (iii) the SOFR rate for U.S. dollar deposits with a term of one month, plus 1.00 percent; or

A SOFR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for deposits in U.S. dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowings, subject to a floor of 0%.

The applicable margin rate is determined based on our Secured 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 SOFR rate borrowings, the applicable margin ranges from 1.00 percent to 2.50 percent.  Borrowings under the 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.

Revolving Facility

The Company has outstanding standby letters of credit that secure our financial obligations related to our workers’ compensation, general insurance, and auto liability programs.  These standby letters of credit, as well as any outstanding amount borrowed under our Revolving Facility, reduce the availability under the Revolving Facility.  

The following table summarizes our availability under the Revolving Facility, in thousands:

  Covenant Compliance

The indentures governing our 3.625% Senior Notes and our 4.125% Senior Notes (together, our “Senior Notes”) contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, generally limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions) to (i) create liens, (ii) pay dividends, acquire shares of capital stock and make payments on subordinated debt, (iii) place limitations on distributions from certain subsidiaries, (iv) issue or sell the capital stock of certain subsidiaries, (v) sell assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates and (vii) effect mergers.  The indentures provide for customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others: nonpayment of principal or interest; breach of covenants or other agreements in the indenture; defaults in failure to pay certain other indebtedness; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing under the indenture, the trustee or the holders of at least 30% in aggregate principal amount of each of our Senior Notes then outstanding may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Senior Notes subject to such declaration immediately due and payable. The Senior Notes and related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and we are not required to register either the Senior Notes or the guarantees in the future.

The 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 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.

The Credit Agreement requires that we maintain a Net Leverage Ratio and minimum Interest Coverage Ratio throughout the term of the agreement.  The following table outlines the key financial covenants effective for the period covered by this Quarterly Report:

6. FAIR VALUE 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.

Fair Value on Non-Recurring Basis

Fair value measurements were applied to our long-term debt portfolio.  We believe the carrying value of our term loan and equipment notes approximate their 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 Credit Agreement.  In addition, due to the floating-rate nature of our term loan, 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.  Based on market trades of our 3.625% Senior Notes and our 4.125% Senior Notes close to March 31, 2023 (Level 1 fair value measurement), we estimate the fair value of each in the table below:

(c)General corporate expense, net includes expenses not specifically attributable to our segments for functions such as corporate human resources, finance, and legal, including salaries, benefits, and other related costs.

8.  INCOME TAXES    

Our effective tax rates were 25.9 percent and 24.9 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The higher 2023 tax rate was primarily related to a decrease in the benefit related to share-based compensation.

A tax benefit of $1.6 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 months ended March 31, 2022.

9. NET INCOME PER SHARE

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

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

11. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Acquiring businesses is a key part of our ongoing strategy to grow our company and expand our market share.  Each acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.”  Acquisition related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, were $1.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively.  Acquisition related costs are included in selling, general, and administrative expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On January 26, 2023, we acquired the assets of the residential insulation business of SRI. This installation acquisition enhanced our presence in Georgia, Michigan, Ohio, Florida, Alabama and South Carolina. The purchase price of $45.8 million was funded by cash on hand and we recognized goodwill of $25.4 in connection with this acquisition.

As third-party or internal valuations are finalized, certain tax aspects of the foregoing transactions 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 following the applicable acquisition date.  

The table below provides a summary as of March 31, 2023 for the businesses acquired and paid for with cash during the three months ended March 31, 2022, in thousands:

13.  OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation.  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, claims against our builder customers for issues relating to our workmanship.  We generally exclude from our contracts with builder customers indemnity relating to product quality and warranty claims, as we pass such claims directly to the manufacturers of the products we install or distribute.  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 also maintain indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that may require us to indemnify them against liabilities that arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, except as prohibited by applicable law.

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 license and insurance.

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

OVERVIEW

TopBuild Corp., headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, is a leading installer and specialty distributor of insulation and other building material products to the construction industry in the United States and Canada.

We operate in two segments: Installation and Specialty Distribution. Our Installation segment installs insulation and other building products nationwide.  As of March 31, 2023, we had approximately 235 Installation branches located across the United States. We install various insulation applications, including fiberglass batts and rolls, blown-in loose fill fiberglass, polyurethane spray foam, and blown-in loose fill cellulose. Additionally, we install other building products including glass and windows, rain gutters, after paint products, fireproofing, garage doors, and fireplaces. We handle every stage of the installation process, including material procurement supplied by leading manufacturers, project scheduling and logistics, multi-phase professional installation, and installation quality assurance.

Our Specialty Distribution segment distributes building and mechanical insulation, insulation accessories, rain gutters, and other building product materials for the residential and commercial/industrial end markets.  As of March 31, 2023, we had approximately 162 distribution centers located across the United States and 18 distribution centers in Canada. Our Specialty Distribution customer base consists of thousands of insulation contractors of all sizes serving a wide variety of residential and commercial/industrial industries, gutter contractors, weatherization contractors, other contractors, dealers, metal building erectors, and modular home builders.

We believe that having both Installation and Specialty Distribution provides us with a number of distinct competitive advantages.  First, the combined buying power of our two business segments, along with our scale, strengthens our ties to the major manufacturers of insulation and other building material 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 specialty distribution allows us to reach a broader set of builders and contractors more effectively, regardless of their size or geographic location in the U.S. and Canada, and leverage housing and commercial/industrial construction growth wherever it occurs.  Third, during housing industry downturns, many insulation contractors who buy directly from manufacturers during industry peaks return to purchasing through specialty 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 7 – Segment Information to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. For additional details regarding our strategy, material trends in our business and seasonality, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto, and the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Quarterly Report.

Sales and Operations

Net sales increased 8.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from the comparable period of 2022.  The increase was primarily driven by a 5.7% impact from higher selling prices, a 1.3% increase in sales from acquisitions, and a 1.2% increase in sales volume.

 

Gross profit margins were 29.3% and 28.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  Gross profit margin improved primarily due to productivity initiatives, higher selling prices and higher sales volume partially offset by an increase in cost of material.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 13.5% and 14.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  Decreased selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percent of sales was primarily the result of higher sales and productivity initiatives.

Operating margins were 15.8% and 14.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in operating margins was due to higher selling prices and higher sales volume, and productivity initiatives partially offset by an increase in cost of material.

Sales

Sales in our Installation segment increased $90.4 million, or 13.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022.  Sales increased 5.8% from higher selling prices, 5.4% from higher sales volume, and 2.2% from acquisitions.

Operating margins

Operating margins in our Installation segment were 19.1% and 16.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The increase in operating margin was driven by higher selling prices, higher sales volume and productivity initiatives partially offset by higher material costs.

Specialty Distribution

Sales in our Specialty Distribution segment increased $14.5 million, or 2.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. Sales increased 5.7% from higher selling prices which was partially offset by a 3.0% decline in sales volume.

Operating margins

Operating margins in our Specialty Distribution segment were 13.1% and 12.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The increase in operating margin was driven by higher selling prices and productivity initiatives, offset by a decrease in sales volume and an increase in the cost of material.

OTHER ITEMS

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, was $16.1 million and $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change primarily related to interest expense, which increased by $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, due to higher interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Agreement. This increase in interest expense was partially offset by $2.4 million higher interest income over the same period.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense was $47.4 million, an effective tax rate of 25.9 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $38.0 million, an effective tax rate of 24.9 percent, for the comparable period in 2022.  The tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was higher primarily related to a decrease in the benefit related to share-based compensation.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased $80.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the prior year period.  Net income was up $21.2 million, or 18.4%, compared with the prior year period, driven by the impact of higher sales prices, sales from acquisitions, and increased sale volumes.  Cash flows provided by operating activities was also favorably impacted by lower levels of inventory and prepaid expenses, which were partially offset by the impact of lower levels of payables.

Net cash used in investing activities was $61.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily composed of $45.9 million for the acquisition of SRI and $15.6 million for purchases of property and equipment, mainly vehicles and machinery & equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $32.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily composed of $18.4 million for purchases of property and equipment, primarily vehicles, and $14.0 million for acquisitions.

Net cash used in financing activities was $15.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we used $9.7 million for debt repayments, and $5.3 million net activity related to exercise of share-based incentive awards and stock options.  Net cash used in financing activities was $70.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.  During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used $50.0 million for the repurchase of common stock, $10.9 million net activity related to exercise of share-based incentive awards and stock options and $9.6 million for debt service requirements.

We have access to liquidity through our cash from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement, which provides for borrowing and/or standby letter of credit issuances of up to $500 million under the revolving facility.  Additional information regarding our outstanding debt and borrowing capacity is incorporated by reference from Note 5 – Long-term Debt to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

(a) Our cash and cash equivalents consist of AAA-rated money market funds as well as cash held in our demand deposit accounts.

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 known contractual obligations including funding our debt service requirements, capital expenditures, lease obligations and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months. We also have adequate liquidity to maintain off-balance sheet arrangements for short-term leases, letters of credit, and performance and license bonds. Information regarding our outstanding bonds as of March 31, 2023, is incorporated by reference from Note 13 – Other Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

OUTLOOK

There continues to be uncertainty around the economy due to turmoil in the banking industry, higher interest rates and inflation, which have negatively impacted single family housing starts.  Our sales are benefiting from the significant backlog of single family houses under construction and continued strong multifamily starts.  We expect the current slowdown in single family starts to impact our single family volume in the second half of this year and for multifamily construction levels to remain solid.  We remain optimistic about the long-term fundamentals of the U.S. housing market, supported by a limited supply of both new and existing homes and favorable demographic trends, including increasing household formations.  

We also continue to have a strong backlog and bidding activity to support our commercial/industrial sales.  In addition, maintenance and repair on industrial sites will also serve as a continued driver for our business.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2023, other than short-term leases, letters of credit, and performance and license bonds, which have been disclosed in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly report.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP.  The preparation of these 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 and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Our critical accounting policies have not changed from those previously reported in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023.

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 contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this report that reflect our views about future periods, including our future plans and 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,” “should,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” “may,” “project,” “estimate”  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 the duration and impact of negative macro-economic impacts on the United States economy, specifically with respect to residential, commercial/industrial construction, our ability to collect our receivables from our customers, our reliance on residential new construction, residential repair/remodel, and commercial/industrial 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 our acquisitions.    We discuss the material risks we face under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2023, as well as under the caption entitled “Risk Factors” in subsequent reports that we file 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

We have a Term Loan outstanding with a principal balance of $558.8 million and a revolving facility with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $500.0 million. We also have outstanding 3.625% Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $400.0 million and 4.125% Senior Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $500.0 million.  The 3.625% Senior Notes and 4.125% Senior Notes bear a fixed rate of interest and therefore are excluded from the calculation below as they are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates.

Interest payable on both the aggregate Term Loan 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 this outstanding indebtedness.  As of March 31, 2023, the applicable interest rate as of such date was 5.91%.  Based on our outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2023, a 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would result in a $5.5 million increase in our annualized interest expense.  There was no outstanding balance under the revolving facility as of March 31, 2023.

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, 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).  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.
