NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
Organization and Ownership Structure — Atkore Inc. (the “Company”, “Atkore” or “AI”) is a leading manufacturer of Electrical products primarily for the non-residential construction and renovation markets and Safety & Infrastructure solutions for the construction and industrial markets. Atkore was incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 4, 2010 under the name Atkore International Group, Inc. As of December 20, 2022, Atkore was the sole stockholder of Atkore International Holdings Inc. (“AIH”), which in turn was the sole stockholder of Atkore International Inc. ("AII"). On December 28, 2022, AIH merged into AII, with AII being the surviving entity. Accordingly, Atkore is now the sole stockholder of AII.
The Electrical segment manufactures high quality products used in the construction of electrical power systems including conduit, cable, and installation accessories. This segment serves contractors, in partnership with the electrical wholesale channel.
The Safety & Infrastructure segment designs and manufactures solutions including metal framing, mechanical pipe, perimeter security, and cable management for the protection and reliability of critical infrastructure. These solutions are marketed to contractors, original equipment manufacturers and end users.
Basis of Presentation — The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies and on the same basis as those financial statements included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 17, 2023, and should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities used in operating the Company’s business. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of companies acquired or disposed of are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal.
These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considered necessary to present a fair statement of its results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year.
Fiscal Periods — The Company has a fiscal year that ends on September 30. The Company’s fiscal quarters typically end on the last Friday in December, March and June as it follows a 4-5-4 calendar.
Use of Estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and report the associated amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A summary of recently adopted accounting guidance is as follows. Adoption dates are on the first day of the fiscal year indicated below, unless otherwise specified.

2. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company’s revenue arrangements primarily consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods which is satisfied at a point in time when title, risks and rewards of ownership, and subsequently control have transferred to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is shipped to the customer, with an immaterial amount of transactions in which control transfers upon delivery. The Company primarily offers assurance-type standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.
Under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), the Company is eligible for tax credits related to the manufacturing and selling of components used in the solar energy industry. These tax credits are transferable under the IRA when they meet certain criteria. When credits do not meet the transferability criteria, the benefit is recognized within income tax expense in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Beginning in fiscal 2024, the Company has concluded that the credits generated are transferable. As such, the benefit of the solar energy tax credits is recognized as a reduction of cost of sales.
The Company has contractual arrangements with certain customers to transfer a portion of the tax credits or to otherwise provide a rebate based on an agreed-upon value of the tax credits generated. Pursuant to such contractual arrangements, if the tax credits will be transferred to the customer, the Company identifies two separate performance obligations: (1) transfer the promised goods; and (2) transfer of the defined portion of the tax credits earned. The Company allocates the total value of these transactions between the two performance obligations. As a result of this allocation, the Company recognizes a reduction to revenue, similar to a rebate. For arrangements with no transfer of tax credits there is only a single performance obligation to transfer the promised goods and a rebate, which is recognized as a reduction of revenue, is granted based on the agreed-upon value of the tax credits generated.
The solar energy tax credit receivable is recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets and the liability to transfer the defined portion of the tax credits or the economic value is recorded in Customer Liabilities.
For the nine months ended June 28, 2024, the Company has recognized a reduction of revenue of $48,783 for the economic value of tax credits to be transferred and a benefit to cost of sales of $60,952. As of June 28, 2024, the Company has a liability of $16,887 for credits to be transferred or the value thereof. As of June 28, 2024, all activity related to the solar energy tax credits is within the Safety & Infrastructure segment.
The Company has certain arrangements that require it to estimate at the time of sale the amounts of variable consideration that should not be recorded as revenue as certain amounts are not expected to be collected from customers, as well as an estimate of the value of products to be returned. The Company principally relies on historical experience, specific customer agreements, and anticipated future trends to estimate these amounts at the time of sale and to reduce the transaction price. These arrangements include sales discounts and allowances, volume rebates, and returned goods. The Company records its obligations related to these items within the Customer Liabilities line on the balance sheet.
The Company records amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling costs within revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of goods sold. Sales taxes and other usage-based taxes are excluded from revenue. The Company does not evaluate whether the selling price includes a financing interest component for contracts that are less than a year. The Company also expenses costs incurred to obtain a contract, primarily sales commissions, as all obligations will be settled in less than one year.
The Company typically receives payment 30 to 60 days from the point it has satisfied the related performance obligation. See Note 16, “Segment Information” for revenue disaggregated by geography and product categories.
3. ACQUISITIONS
From time to time, the Company enters into strategic acquisitions in an effort to better service existing customers and to obtain new customers. During the nine months ended June 28, 2024, the Company paid out $6,036 of accrued purchase price primarily related to the fiscal 2022 acquisition of Cascade Poly Pipe & Conduit and Northwest Polymers. No other acquisition activity occurred during the nine months ended June 28, 2024.
Fiscal 2023
On November 7, 2022, Atkore HDPE, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired the assets of Elite Polymer Solutions (“Elite”), for a purchase price of $90,230, of which $75,981 was paid at closing and an additional purchase price payable of $14,000 was accrued, of which $500 was paid in fiscal 2023 subsequent to the acquisition date. Elite is a manufacturer of high density polyethylene (HDPE) conduit, primarily serving the telecommunications, utility, and transportation markets. As a result of the acquisition, the Company preliminarily recognized $18,669 of tax deductible goodwill, $68,480 of identifiable intangible assets, of which $68,200 relates to customer relationships with an estimated useful life of 8 years, and $3,082 of working capital and other net tangible assets. The Company finalized the purchase price allocation of Elite in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
The Elite acquisition in fiscal 2023 was funded using cash-on-hand. The Company incurred approximately $968 in acquisition-related expenses for fiscal 2023, which was recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.
Net sales and net income of the above acquisition are included in the condensed consolidated financial statement of operations for the post-acquisition period. Due to the immaterial nature of this
acquisition, the Company did not include the pro forma results of operations for this acquisition or the previous interim period.
4. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company provides pension benefits through a number of noncontributory and contributory defined benefit retirement plans covering eligible U.S. employees. As of September 30, 2017, all defined pension benefit plans were frozen, whereby participants no longer accrue credited service. The net periodic benefit credit was as follows:

In fiscal 2023, the Company initiated plans to exit operations in Russia and expects to sell the related business at a loss. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment of the related assets in fiscal 2023 and continues to recognize any incremental losses on those assets.
6. INCOME TAXES
For the three months ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate attributable to income before income taxes was 21.9% and 8.6%, respectively. For the three months ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company’s income tax expense was $34,531 and $18,931 respectively. The increase in the current period effective tax rate and expense was driven by a decrease in the benefit related to solar energy tax credits. In the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company recognized a one time $39,799 benefit in its income tax expense related to the credits available as part of the IRA.
For the nine months ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate attributable to income before income taxes was 19.3% and 18.0%, respectively. For the nine months ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company’s income tax expense was $95,606 and $120,854
respectively. The increase in the current period effective tax rate was driven by a decrease in the benefit related to solar energy tax credits.
A valuation allowance has been recorded against certain net operating losses in certain foreign jurisdictions. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is determined to be more likely than not that these assets will not be fully realized in the foreseeable future. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon whether the Company can generate future taxable income in the appropriate character and jurisdiction to utilize the assets. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable is subject to adjustment in future periods.
7. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net earnings are allocated to each class of common stock and participating securities as if all of the net earnings for the period had been distributed. The Company’s participating securities consist of share-based payment awards that contain a non-forfeitable right to receive dividends and therefore are considered to participate in undistributed earnings with common stockholders.
Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing the net earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

12. DEBT
Debt as of June 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | June 28, 2024 | | September 30, 2023 |
| | | | |
ABL Credit Facility | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |

| | | | |
| | | | |
Long-term debt | | $ | 764,300 | | | $ | 762,687 | |
The asset-based credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”) has aggregate commitments of $325,000. AII is the borrower under the ABL Credit Facility which is guaranteed by the Company and all other subsidiaries of the Company (other than AII) that are guarantors of the Senior Notes (as defined below). AII’s availability under the ABL Credit Facility was $325,000 as of June 28, 2024 and $322,406 as of September 30, 2023.
The ABL Credit Facility will mature on the earlier of five years from May 26, 2021 or 91 days prior to the maturity date of the New Senior Secured Term Loan Facility if at least $100 million of obligations remain outstanding under the New Senior Secured Term Loan Facility on such date. The ABL Credit Facility uses a forward-looking interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) consisting of an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%.
The New Senior Secured Term Loan Facility will mature on May 26, 2028 and borrowings thereunder bearing interest at the rate of forward-looking interest rate based on the “SOFR”, consisting of an applicable margin of 2.00% and a credit spread adjustment of (i) 0.11448% for a one-month interest period, (ii) 0.26161% for a three-month interest period and (iii) 0.42826% for a six-month interest period.
Senior Notes - On May 26, 2021, the Company completed the issuance and sale of the $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Senior Notes”) in a private offering. The Senior Notes were sold only to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S of the Securities Act.
13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
The Company periodically uses forward currency contracts to hedge the effects of foreign exchange relating to intercompany balances denominated in a foreign currency. These derivative instruments are not formally designated as a hedge by the Company. Short-term forward currency contracts are recorded in either other current assets or other current liabilities and long-term forward currency contracts are recorded in either other long-term assets or other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value gains and losses are included in other expense, net within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 5, “Other Expense, net” for further detail.
Cash flows associated with derivative financial instruments are recognized in the operating section of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The fair value of forward currency contracts is calculated by reference to current forward exchange rates for contracts with similar maturity profiles.
The Company had no active forward currency contracts or other derivative instruments as of June 28, 2024 or September 30, 2023.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 28, 2024 | | September 30, 2023 |
(in thousands) | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 1 | | Level 2 |
Assets | | | | | | | | |
Cash equivalents | | $ | 214,826 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 321,282 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
The Company’s remaining financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable whose carrying value approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.
The estimated fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 28, 2024 | | September 30, 2023 |
(in thousands) | | Carrying Value | | Fair Value | | Carrying Value | | Fair Value |
| | | | | | | | |
Senior Secured Term Loan Facility due May 26, 2028 | | $ | 373,000 | | | $ | 374,048 | | | $ | 373,000 | | | $ | 372,068 | |
Senior Notes due June 2031 | | 400,000 | | | 350,476 | | | 400,000 | | | 334,368 | |
Total Debt | | $ | 773,000 | | | $ | 724,524 | | | $ | 773,000 | | | $ | 706,436 | |
| | | | | | | | |
In determining the approximate fair value of its long-term debt, the Company used the trading values among financial institutions, and these values fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the ABL Credit Facility approximates fair value due to it being a market-linked variable rate debt.
14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has obligations related to commitments to purchase certain goods. As of June 28, 2024, such obligations were $162,223 for the rest of fiscal year 2024 and $11,483 for fiscal year 2025 and beyond. These amounts represent open purchase orders for materials used in production.
Insurable Liabilities — The Company maintains policies with various insurance companies for its workers’ compensation, product, property, general, auto, and executive liability risks. The insurance policies that the Company maintains have various retention levels and excess coverage limits. The establishment and update of liabilities for unpaid claims, including claims incurred but not reported, is based on management's estimate as a result of the assessment by the Company's claim administrator of each claim and an independent actuarial valuation of the nature and severity of total claims. The Company utilizes a third-party claims administrator to pay claims, track and evaluate actual claims experience, and ensure consistency in the data used in the actuarial valuation.
Legal Contingencies — Historically, a number of lawsuits have been filed against the Company and the Company has also received other claim demand letters alleging that the Company's anti-microbial coated steel sprinkler pipe, which the Company has not manufactured or sold for several years, is incompatible with chlorinated polyvinyl chloride and caused stress cracking in such pipe manufactured by third parties when installed together in the same sprinkler system, which the Company refers to collectively as the “Special Products Claims.” Tyco International Ltd. (“Tyco”), now Johnson Controls, Inc. (“JCI”), has a contractual obligation to indemnify the Company in respect of all remaining and future claims of incompatibility between the Company's antimicrobial coated steel sprinkler pipe and CPVC pipe used in the same sprinkler system. When Special Products Claims arise, JCI has defended and indemnified the Company as required.
As of the date of this filing, no Special Product Claims are currently pending against the Company as JCI has resolved all claims at their sole cost and expense. Accordingly, at this time, the Company does not expect the outcome of the Special Products Claims proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, and the Company believes that its reserves are adequate for all remaining contingencies for Special Products Claims and other product liabilities.
In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to a number of disputes, administrative proceedings and other claims arising out of the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business. These matters generally relate to disputes arising out of the use or installation of the Company’s products, product liability litigation, contract disputes, patent infringement accusations, employment matters, personal injury claims and similar matters. On the basis of information currently available to the Company, it does not believe that existing proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is unpredictable, and the Company could incur judgments or enter into settlements for current or future claims that could adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
15. GUARANTEES
The Company had no outstanding letters of credit as of June 28, 2024. The Company also had surety bonds primarily related to performance guarantees on supply agreements and construction contracts, and payment of duties and taxes totaling $38,711 as of June 28, 2024.
In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company often provides representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. The Company does not have the ability to estimate the potential liability from such indemnities because they relate to unknown conditions. However, the Company has no reason to believe that these uncertainties would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In the normal course of business, the Company is liable for product performance and contract completion. In the opinion of management, such obligations will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
16. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Electrical segment manufactures high quality products used in the construction of electrical power systems including conduit, cable and installation accessories. This segment serves contractors in partnership with the electrical wholesale channel.
The Safety & Infrastructure segment designs and manufactures solutions including metal framing, mechanical pipe, perimeter security and cable management for the protection and reliability of critical infrastructure. These solutions are marketed to contractors, original equipment manufacturers and end users.
Both segments use Adjusted EBITDA as the primary measure of profit and loss. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted to exclude unallocated expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, certain legal matters, and other items, such as inventory reserves and adjustments, (gain) loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, insurance recovery related to damages of property, plant and equipment, release of indemnified uncertain tax positions, realized or unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency impacts of intercompany loans and related forward currency derivatives, gain on purchase of business, loss on assets held for sale, restructuring costs and transaction costs.
Intersegment transactions primarily consist of product sales at designated transfer prices on an arm’s-length basis. Gross profit earned and reported within the segment is eliminated in the Company’s consolidated results. Certain manufacturing and distribution expenses are allocated between the segments on a pro rata basis due to the shared nature of activities. Recorded amounts represent a proportional amount of the quantity of product produced for each segment. Certain assets, such as machinery and equipment and facilities, are not allocated to each segment despite serving both segments. These shared assets are reported within the Safety & Infrastructure segment. The Company allocates certain corporate operating expenses that directly benefit our operating segments, such as insurance and information technology, on a basis that reasonably approximates an estimate of the use of these services.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward- looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those factors discussed below and included or referenced elsewhere in this report, particularly in the sections entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.”
Incremental Market Uncertainties
Recent events, including central bank interest rate increases, inflation, and conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East are creating additional uncertainty in the global economy, generally, and in the markets we operate in. The aforementioned conflicts and other factors have had and will continue to have adverse effects on global supply chains, which may impact some aspects of our business. Furthermore, we are mindful of the effects that adverse weather can have on our domestic supply chain.
