1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of Consolidation

Watsco, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Watsco,” or “we,” “us” or “our”) was incorporated in Florida in 1956 and is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (“HVAC/R”) in the HVAC/R distribution industry in North America. The accompanying June 30, 2016 interim condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, but we believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included herein. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this report include the accounts of Watsco, all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and the accounts of three joint ventures with Carrier Corporation (“Carrier”), in each of which Watsco maintains a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns, primarily during the Summer and Winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction market is fairly consistent during the year, subject to weather and economic conditions, including their effect on the number of housing completions.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management 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 condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation reserves for accounts receivable, inventories and income taxes, reserves related to self-insurance programs and the valuation of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. While we believe that these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from such estimates.

New Accounting Standards

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a standard on revenue recognition that provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The core principle is that a company will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of this standard by one year. As a result, this standard is effective for our interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2018, and are currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Measurement of Inventory

In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the measurement of inventory by replacing the lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost and net realizable value test. The guidance applies to all inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out or average cost methods. This guidance must be applied prospectively and will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for leases, which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures regarding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance requires the use of a modified retrospective approach. We are evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance that will require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, rather than as an asset. This guidance is effective retrospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Share-Based Payments

In March 2016, the FASB issued amended guidance related to employee share-based payment accounting. The guidance requires that all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The guidance also requires presentation of excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity. The guidance increases the amount companies can withhold to cover income taxes on awards without triggering liability classification for shares used to satisfy statutory income tax withholding obligations and requires application of a modified retrospective transition method. The amended guidance will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016; early adoption is permitted if all provisions are adopted in the same period.

We elected to early adopt the amended guidance during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, which required us to reflect any adjustments as of January 1, 2016, the beginning of the annual period that includes the interim period of adoption. The primary impact of adoption was the recognition of excess tax benefits in our provision for income taxes rather than paid-in capital for all periods in 2016. We elected to apply the presentation requirements for cash flows related to excess tax benefits prospectively. The accounting for income taxes and minimum statutory withholding tax requirements had no impact to retained earnings as of January 1, 2016, where the cumulative effect of these changes are required to be recorded. We have elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period.

Adoption of the amended guidance resulted in the recognition of excess tax benefits in our provision for income taxes rather than paid-in capital of $2,307 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016 and impacted our previously reported quarterly results for March 31, 2016 as follows:

2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for our Common and Class B common stock:

Diluted earnings per share for our Common stock assumes the conversion of all of our Class B common stock into Common stock as of the beginning of the fiscal year; therefore, no allocation of earnings to Class B common stock is required. At June 30, 2016 and 2015, our outstanding Class B common stock was convertible into 2,719,495 and 2,724,464 shares of our Common stock, respectively.

3. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of the foreign currency translation adjustment associated with our Canadian operations’ use of the Canadian dollar as its functional currency and changes in the unrealized (losses) gains on cash flow hedging instruments and available-for-sale securities. The tax effects allocated to each component of other comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:

Table of Contents

The changes in each component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, were as follows:

4. DERIVATIVES

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to offset the earnings impact that foreign exchange rate fluctuations would otherwise have had on certain monetary liabilities that are denominated in nonfunctional currencies.

Cash Flow Hedging Instruments

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges. The settlement of these derivatives results in reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings for the period in which the settlement of these instruments occurs. The maximum period for which we hedge our cash flow using these instruments is 12 months. Accordingly, at June 30, 2016, all of our open foreign currency forward contracts had maturities of one year or less. The total notional value of our foreign currency exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges at June 30, 2016 was $29,100, and such contracts have varying terms expiring through December 2016.

10 of 22

Table of Contents

The impact from foreign exchange derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges was as follows:

At June 30, 2016, we expected an estimated $654 pre-tax loss to be reclassified into earnings to reflect the fixed prices obtained from foreign exchange hedging within the next 12 months.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

We have also entered into foreign currency forward contracts that are either not designated as hedges or did not qualify for hedge accounting. These derivative instruments were effective economic hedges for all of the periods presented. The fair value gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in earnings as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. The total notional value of our foreign currency exchange contract not designated as a hedging instrument at June 30, 2016 was approximately $5,000, and such contract expired in July 2016.

We recognized losses of $(33) and $(89) from foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We recognized a (loss) gain of $(464) and $1,294 from foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The following table summarizes the fair value of derivative instruments, which consist solely of foreign currency forward contracts, included in other current assets and accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated unaudited balance sheets. See Note 5.

Table of Contents

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following tables present our assets and liabilities carried at fair value that are measured on a recurring basis:

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for these assets and liabilities, as well as the level of input used to measure fair value:

Available-for-sale securities – the investments are exchange-traded equity securities. Fair values for these investments are based on closing stock prices from active markets and are therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative financial instruments – these derivatives are foreign currency forward contracts. See Note 4. Fair value is based on observable market inputs, such as forward rates in active markets; therefore, we classify these derivatives within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

There were no transfers in or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

6. DEBT

We maintain an unsecured, syndicated revolving credit agreement that provides for borrowings of up to $600,000. Borrowings are used to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, dividends (if and as declared by our Board of Directors), capital expenditures, stock repurchases and issuances of letters of credit. The revolving credit agreement matures on July 1, 2019. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $267,348 and $245,300, respectively, were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios, and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2016.

At June 30, 2016, $793 of short-term borrowings were outstanding under a credit line established by our Mexican subsidiary. This line of credit has a one-year term, maturing on June 14, 2017, is non-committed and provides for borrowings of up to approximately $4,000 (MXN $75,000) for general corporate purposes. No short-term borrowings were outstanding under this credit line at December 31, 2015.

7. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock Dividends

We paid cash dividends of $0.85, $0.70, $1.70 and $1.40 per share of Common stock and Class B common stock during the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Non-controlling Interest

Of our three joint ventures with Carrier, we have an 80% controlling interest in one and a 60% controlling interest in each of the other two, while Carrier has either a 20% or 40% non-controlling interest in such joint ventures, as applicable. The following table reconciles shareholders’ equity attributable to Carrier’s non-controlling interest:

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation, Claims and Assessments

In December 2015, a purported Watsco shareholder, Nelson Gaskins, filed a derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Watsco’s Board of Directors. The Company is a nominal defendant. The lawsuit alleges breach of fiduciary duties regarding CEO incentive compensation and seeks to recover alleged excessive incentive compensation and unspecified damages. The defendants believe the claims are entirely without merit and intend to vigorously defend against them.

13 of 22

Table of Contents

While we cannot predict the outcome of this litigation, we believe the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

We are also involved in other litigation incidental to the operation of our business. We vigorously defend all matters in which we or our subsidiaries are named defendants and, for insurable losses, maintain significant levels of insurance to protect against adverse judgments, claims or assessments that may affect us. Although the adequacy of existing insurance coverage and the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on the current information available, we do not believe the ultimate liability associated with any known claims or litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Self-Insurance

Self-insurance reserves are maintained relative to company-wide casualty insurance and health benefit programs. The level of exposure from catastrophic events is limited by the purchase of stop-loss and aggregate liability reinsurance coverage. When estimating the self-insurance liabilities and related reserves, management considers a number of factors, which include historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and valuations provided by independent third-party actuaries. Management reviews its assumptions with its independent third-party actuaries to evaluate whether the self-insurance reserves are adequate. If actual claims or adverse development of loss reserves occur and exceed these estimates, additional reserves may be required. Reserves in the amounts of $4,060 and $3,214 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, were established related to such programs and are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated unaudited balance sheets.

Purchase Obligations

At June 30, 2016, we were obligated under a non-cancelable purchase order with one of our key suppliers for goods aggregating approximately $129,000.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 62% and 64% of all inventory purchases made during the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 62% of all inventory purchases made during both the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, approximately $101,000 and $85,000, respectively, was payable to Carrier and its affiliates, net of receivables. Our joint ventures with Carrier also sell HVAC products to Carrier and its affiliates. Revenues in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 included approximately $17,000, $21,000, $29,000 and $29,000, respectively, of sales to Carrier and its affiliates. We believe these transactions are conducted at arm’s-length in the ordinary course of business.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 18, 2016, our Board of Directors approved an increase to the quarterly cash dividend per share of Common and Class B common stock to $1.05 per share from $0.85 per share, beginning with the dividend that will be paid in October 2016.

Company Overview

Watsco, Inc. was incorporated in Florida in 1956, and, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “Watsco,” or “we,” “us” or “our”) is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (“HVAC/R”) in the HVAC/R distribution industry in North America. At June 30, 2016, we operated from 563 locations in 37 U.S. States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico with additional market coverage on an export basis to portions of Latin America and the Caribbean.

15 of 22

Table of Contents

Revenues primarily consist of sales of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies. Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of selling expenses, the largest components of which are salaries, commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales. Other significant selling, general and administrative expenses relate to the operation of warehouse facilities, including a fleet of trucks and forklifts and facility rent, which expenses are payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases.

Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns, primarily during the Summer and Winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction market is fairly consistent during the year, subject to weather and economic conditions, including their effect on the number of housing completions.

Joint Ventures with Carrier Corporation

In 2009, we formed a joint venture with Carrier Corporation (“Carrier”), which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise I, in which Carrier contributed 95 of its company-owned locations in 13 Sun Belt states and Puerto Rico and its export division in Miami, Florida, and we contributed 15 locations that distributed Carrier products. In July 2012, we exercised our option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which increased our ownership interest to 70%; and, on July 1, 2014, we exercised our last remaining option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which increased our controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise I to 80%. Neither we nor Carrier has any remaining options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise I or any of our other joint ventures with Carrier, which are described below.

In 2011, we formed a second joint venture with Carrier and completed two additional transactions. In April 2011, Carrier contributed 28 of its company-owned locations in eight Northeast U.S. States, and we contributed 14 locations in the Northeast U.S. In July 2011, we purchased Carrier’s distribution operations in Mexico, which included seven locations. Collectively, the Northeast locations and the Mexico operations are referred to as Carrier Enterprise II. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise II, and Carrier has a 40% non-controlling interest.

In 2012, we formed a third joint venture, which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise III, with UTC Canada Corporation, referred to as UTC Canada, an affiliate of Carrier. Carrier contributed 35 of its company-owned locations in Canada to Carrier Enterprise III. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III, and UTC Canada has a 40% non-controlling interest.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these 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 condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, management reevaluates its judgments and estimates, which are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Our critical accounting policies are included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on February 29, 2016. We believe that there have been no significant changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

New Accounting Standards

Refer to Note 1 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of new accounting standards.

Results of Operations

The following table summarizes information derived from our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income, expressed as a percentage of revenues, for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Table of Contents

Note: Due to rounding, percentages may not add up to 100.

In the following narratives, computations and disclosure information referring to “same-store basis” exclude the effects of locations acquired or locations opened or closed during the immediately preceding 12 months unless they are within close geographical proximity to existing locations. At June 30, 2016 and 2015, 15 and 34 locations, respectively, were excluded from “same-store basis” information. The table below summarizes the changes in our locations for the 12 months ended June 30, 2016:

Second Quarter of 2016 Compared to Second Quarter of 2015

Revenues

Revenues for the second quarter of 2016 decreased $9.0 million, or 1%, including $0.5 million from locations opened during the preceding 12 months, offset by $6.2 million from locations closed. On a same-store basis, revenues decreased $3.3 million as compared to the same period in 2015, reflecting a 1% decrease in sales of HVAC equipment (67% of sales), a 3% decrease in sales of other HVAC products (28% of sales) and an 8% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products (5% of sales). The decline in revenues reflects lower demand for residential HVAC equipment.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2016 decreased $3.4 million, or 1%, primarily as a result of decreased revenues. Gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 declined 10 basis-points to 24.0% versus 24.1%.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2016 increased $3.9 million, or 2%. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 increased to 14.3% versus 13.9% for the same period in 2015. On a same-store basis, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3% as compared to the same period in 2015. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to our inability to leverage fixed operating costs as compared to 2015 and included $1.0 million of additional costs for 2016 in excess of 2015 for ongoing technology initiatives.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2016 decreased $0.6 million, or 35%, primarily as a result of a decrease in average outstanding borrowings, partially offset by a higher effective interest rate for the 2016 period as compared to the same period in 2015.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased to $35.1 million for the second quarter of 2016 as compared to $39.0 million for the second quarter of 2015 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are primarily taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rates attributable to us were 34.7% and 36.8% for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a $2.3 million benefit from the adoption of new accounting guidance related to share-based compensation. See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.

Net income attributable to Watsco for the second quarter of 2016 decreased $0.8 million, or 1%, compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease was primarily driven by lower revenues, reduced profit margins, higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues, lower interest expense and reduced income taxes as discussed above.

First Half of 2016 Compared to First Half of 2015

Revenues

Revenues for the first half of 2016 increased $33.4 million, or 2%, including $0.9 million from locations opened during the preceding 12 months, offset by $11.9 million from locations closed. On a same-store basis, revenues increased $44.4 million, or 2%, as compared to the same period in 2015, reflecting a 2% increase in sales of HVAC equipment (66% of sales), flat sales of other HVAC products (29% of sales) and a 7% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products (5% of sales). The increase in same-store revenues was primarily due to demand for residential HVAC equipment.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first half of 2016 increased $4.8 million, or 1%, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2016 declined 20 basis-points to 24.4% versus 24.6%, primarily due to lower realized gross margins for residential HVAC equipment.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first half of 2016 increased $8.4 million, or 3%, primarily due to increased revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased to 16.3% versus 16.1% for the same period in 2015. Selling, general and administrative expenses included $2.5 million of additional costs for 2016 in excess of 2015 for ongoing technology initiatives. On a same-store basis, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3% as compared to the same period in 2015.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the first half of 2016 decreased $1.0 million, or 32%, primarily as a result of a decrease in average outstanding borrowings, partially offset by a higher effective interest rate for the 2016 period as compared to the same period in 2015.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased to $50.6 million for the first half of 2016 as compared to $53.3 million for the first half of 2015 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are primarily taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rates attributable to us were 35.4% and 37.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the aforementioned $2.3 million benefit from the adoption of new accounting guidance related to share-based compensation. See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.

Net income attributable to Watsco for the first half of 2016 increased $1.7 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to execute our business strategy and fund operating and investing activities, taking into consideration the seasonal demand for HVAC/R products, which peaks in the months of May through August. Significant factors that could affect our liquidity include the following:

Sources and Uses of Cash

We rely on cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under our revolving credit agreement to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including dividend payments, if and as declared by our Board of Directors, capital expenditures, business acquisitions and development of our long-term operating and technology strategies.

As of June 30, 2016, we had $30.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, of which, $20.3 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. The repatriation of cash balances from our foreign subsidiaries could have adverse tax consequences or be subject to capital controls; however, these balances are generally available without legal restrictions to fund ordinary business operations of our foreign subsidiaries.

We believe that our operating cash flows, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under our line of credit will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that our current sources of available funds will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements.

Our access to funds under our line of credit depends on the ability of the syndicate banks to meet their respective funding commitments. Disruptions in the credit and capital markets could adversely affect our ability to draw on our line of credit and may also adversely affect the determination of interest rates, particularly rates based on LIBOR, which is one of the base rates under our line of credit. Disruptions in the credit and capital markets could also result in increased borrowing costs and/or reduced borrowing capacity under our line of credit.

Working Capital

Working capital increased to $1.0 billion at June 30, 2016 from $911.0 million at December 31, 2015, reflecting higher levels of accounts receivable and inventories, primarily due to the seasonality of our business.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

The individual items contributing to cash flow changes for the periods presented are detailed in the condensed consolidated unaudited statements of cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was higher primarily due to a lower seasonal build-up of inventory as well as lower inventory as a result of the transition to new regional efficiency standards in 2015 and the timing of payments for accrued expenses in 2016.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was lower due to the purchase of owned space for expansion of our corporate headquarters in 2015.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was higher due to increases in repayments of borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, dividends paid and distributions to the noncontrolling interest in 2016.

Revolving Credit Agreement

We maintain an unsecured, syndicated revolving credit agreement that provides for borrowings of up to $600.0 million. Borrowings are used to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, dividends (if and as declared by our Board of Directors), capital expenditures, stock repurchases and issuances of letters of credit. The revolving credit agreement matures on July 1, 2019. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $267.3 million and $245.3 million were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, respectively. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios, and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2016.

Short-Term Debt

At June 30, 2016, $0.8 million of short-term borrowings were outstanding under a credit line established by our Mexican subsidiary. This line of credit has a one-year term, maturing on June 14, 2017, is non-committed and provides for borrowings of up to approximately $4.0 million (MXN $75.0 million) for general corporate purposes. No short-term borrowings were outstanding under this credit line at December 31, 2015.

Acquisitions

We continually evaluate potential acquisitions and/or joint ventures and routinely hold discussions with a number of acquisition candidates. Should suitable acquisition opportunities arise that would require additional financing, we believe our financial position and earnings history provide a sufficient basis for us to either obtain additional debt financing at competitive rates and on reasonable terms or raise capital through the issuance of equity securities.

Common Stock Dividends

We paid cash dividends of $1.70 and $1.40 per share of Common stock and Class B common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. On July 1, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.85 per share of Common and Class B common stock that was paid on July 29, 2016 to shareholders of record as of July 15, 2016. On July 18, 2016, our Board of Directors approved an increase to the quarterly cash dividend rate to $1.05 per share from $0.85 per share of Common and Class B common stock, beginning with the dividend that will be paid in October 2016. Future dividends and/or changes in dividend rates will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as cash flow generated by operations, profitability, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

Company Share Repurchase Program

In September 1999, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to 7,500,000 shares of common stock in the open market or via private transactions. Shares repurchased under the program are accounted for using the cost method and result in a reduction of shareholders’ equity. No shares were repurchased during the quarters ended June 30, 2016 or 2015. In aggregate, 6,370,913 shares of Common and Class B common stock have been repurchased at a cost of $114.4 million since the inception of the program. At June 30, 2016, there were 1,129,087 shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the program.

There have been no material changes to the information regarding market risk provided in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”)) that are, among other things, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Senior Vice President (“SVP”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO, SVP and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, and, based on that evaluation, our CEO, SVP and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at a reasonable assurance level, at and as of such date.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and of our internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout the Company. However, there were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
