BUILDERS FIRSTSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

Builders FirstSource, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in 1998, is a leading supplier and manufacturer of building materials, manufactured components and construction services to professional homebuilders, sub-contractors, remodelers and consumers. The Company operates approximately 570 locations in 43 states across the United States. In this quarterly report, references to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “ours” or “us” refer to Builders FirstSource, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all recurring adjustments and normal accruals necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. Intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”). Accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2023 Form 10-K.

The accounting policies of our operating segments are consistent with the accounting policies described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2023 Form 10-K. Since the Company operates in one reportable segment, the primary measures reviewed by our CEO, whom we have determined to be our chief operating decision maker, including revenue, gross margin and income before income taxes, are shown in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Business Combinations

When they meet the requirements under ASC 805, Business Combinations, merger and acquisition transactions are accounted for using the acquisition method, and accordingly the results of operations of the acquiree are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date. The consideration transferred is allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the acquisition date, with any excess recorded as goodwill. Transaction-related costs are expensed in the period the costs are incurred. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is equal to net income for all periods presented.

Equity Investments

The Company’s equity investments are accounted for using equity method accounting and are recorded as other assets, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2024, and are not considered significant to the Company.

Reclassifications

Certain prior periods’ amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, including changing the composition of our product categories, amounts presented as repurchases of common stock and tax withholdings on and exercises of equity awards, and amounts reported as borrowings under revolving credit facility and repayments under revolving credit facility. Prior period amounts related to product categories as disclosed in Note 3 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The prior period amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for borrowings and repayments under the revolving credit facility have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. This change to reflect net amounts rather than gross amounts, resulted in a $466.0 million reduction in both borrowings under the revolving credit facility and repayments under the revolving credit facility. Additionally, the prior period amounts related to tax withholdings on equity awards have been reclassified

from repurchases of common stock and combined with exercises of stock options to conform to the present year presentation. Reclassifications had no impact on net income, total assets and liabilities, stockholders’ equity, financing cash flows, or total cash flows as previously reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through additional and more detailed information about a reportable segment's expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This amendment modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose: (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold; (ii) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, as well as individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid net of refunds; (iii) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense, or benefit, disaggregated between domestic and foreign; and (iv) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state and foreign. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis, though retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. Business Combinations

During the first three months of 2024, we acquired certain assets and the operations of Quality Door & Millwork, Inc. (“Quality Door”) and Hanson Truss Components, Inc. (“Hanson Truss”) for a combined total of approximately $59.0 million. Quality Door is a millwork distributor, serving Idaho markets in the Boise and Idaho Falls areas. Hanson Truss produces trusses, serving the areas of Northern California and Western Nevada.

During the first three months of 2023, we acquired certain assets and operations of Noltex Holdings, Inc. and affiliates (“Noltex”) for $84.6 million. Noltex manufactures trusses and provides building components to the single and multi-family markets, serving Texas markets in the Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, Houston, Lubbock, and Midland areas.

The acquisitions were funded with a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our $1.8 billion revolving credit facility due January 17, 2028 (the “Revolving Facility”). The transactions were accounted for by the acquisition method, and accordingly the results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the acquisition dates. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the acquisition dates, with the excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired recorded as goodwill.

The following table summarizes the aggregate fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for acquisitions during the periods ended March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023:

We reclassified net sales of $54.0 million into the Specialty building products and services product category for the three months ended March 31, 2023, to conform to the current year presentation.

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collection results in accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities. Contract assets include unbilled amounts when the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and amounts representing a right to payment from previous performance that is conditional on something other than passage of time, such as retainage. Contract liabilities consist of customer advances and deposits, and deferred revenue.

Through March 31, 2024, and 2023, we recognized as revenue approximately 75% and 70% of the contract liabilities balances outstanding as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

4. Net Income per Common Share

Net income per common share (“EPS”) is calculated in accordance with the Earnings per Share topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares.

The table below presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS:

(1) Goodwill is presented net of historical accumulated impairment losses of $44.6 million.

In 2024, the change in the carrying amount of goodwill is attributable to the acquisitions completed during the year. As of March 31, 2024, no triggering events have occurred. The amount allocated to goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce, synergies and expected growth from the expanded product and service offerings of acquisitions. The goodwill recognized from the current year acquisitions is expected to be deductible and amortized ratably over a 15-year period for tax purposes.

In connection with the current year acquisitions, we recorded customer relationships intangible assets of $24.1 million. The weighted average useful life of the current year acquired intangible assets is 3.0 years. The fair value of acquired customer relationship intangible assets was primarily estimated by applying the multi-period excess earnings method, which involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions primarily related to forecasted revenue growth rates, gross margin, contributory asset charges, customer attrition rates, and market-participant discount rates. These measures are based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market. Key assumptions developed based on the Company’s historical experience, future projections and comparable market data include future cash flows, long-term growth rates, attrition rates and discount rates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, and March 31, 2023, we recorded amortization expense in relation to the above-listed intangible assets of $79.9 million and $84.6 million, respectively.

2024 Debt Transactions

On February 29, 2024, the Company completed a private offering of $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 6.375% senior unsecured notes due 2034 (“6.375% 2034 Notes”) at an issue price equal to 100% of par value. The net proceeds from the offering were used to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Revolving Facility and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the issuance of the 6.375% 2034 notes, we incurred $12.8 million of various third-party fees and expenses. These costs have been recorded as a reduction to long-term debt and are being amortized over the contractual life of the 6.375% 2034 notes using the effective interest method.

The 6.375% 2034 Notes mature on March 1, 2034, with interest accruing at a rate of 6.375% per annum and interest payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year.

The terms of the 6.375% 2034 Notes are governed by the indenture, dated as of February 29, 2024 (“2034 Indenture”). The 2034 Indenture contains consistent terms and are among the Company, the guarantors named therein and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee.

The 6.375% 2034 Notes, subject to certain exceptions, are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, by each of the Company’s direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) that guarantee the Revolving Facility, the 5.000% senior notes due 2030 (the “5.00% 2030 Notes”), the 4.250% senior notes due 2032 (the “4.25% 2032 Notes”) and the 6.375% senior notes due 2032 (the “6.375% 2032 Notes” and, collectively with the 5.00% 2030 Notes and the 4.25% 2032 Notes, the “Existing Notes”).

The 6.375% 2034 Notes constitute senior unsecured obligations of the Company and Guarantors, pari passu in right of payment, with all of the existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company, including indebtedness under the Revolving Facility and the Existing Notes effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors (including indebtedness under the Revolving Facility) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, senior to all of the future subordinated indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors and structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including preferred stock, of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 6.375% 2034 Notes.

The 2034 Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt or issue preferred stock, create liens, create restrictions on the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to make payments to the Company, pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ capital stock, make certain investments or certain other restricted payments, guarantee indebtedness, designate unrestricted subsidiaries, sell certain kinds of assets, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, and effect mergers and consolidations.

The Company may redeem the 6.375% 2034 Notes within five years from the date of issuance, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 6.375% 2034 Notes plus the “applicable premium” set forth in the 2034 Indenture. The Company may, within three years of the date of issuance, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 6.375% 2034 Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings at 106.375% of the principal amount thereof plus

12


 

accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. After the five-year period from original issuance, the Company may redeem the 6.375% 2034 Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the 2034 Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control triggering events, holders of the 6.375% 2034 Notes may require it to repurchase all or part of their notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

The Company’s Revolving Facility and other outstanding senior unsecured notes are discussed in more detail in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Fair Value

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. We have elected to report the value of our Existing Notes, the 6.375% 2034 Notes, and Revolving Facility at amortized cost. The fair values of the 5.00% 2030 Notes, 4.25% 2032 Notes, 6.375% 2032 Notes, and 6.375% 2034 Notes at March 31, 2024, were approximately $525.5 million, $1.2 billion, $711.3 million, and $1.0 billion, respectively, which were determined using Level 2 inputs based on market prices.

We were not in violation of any covenants or restrictions imposed by any of our debt agreements at March 31, 2024.

9. Employee Stock-Based Compensation

Time Based Restricted Stock Unit Grants

In the first three months of 2024, our board of directors granted 246,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees under our 2014 Incentive Plan for which vesting is based solely on continuous employment over the requisite service period. These grants vest over a service period between one and four years. The weighted average grant date fair value for these RSUs was $189.36 per unit, which was based on the closing stock price on the respective grant dates.

Performance, Market and Service Condition Based Restricted Stock Unit Grants

In the first three months of 2024, our board of directors granted 81,000 RSUs to employees under our 2014 Incentive Plan, which cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date based on the Company’s level of achievement of performance goals relating to return on invested capital over a three-year period (“performance condition”) and continued employment during the performance period (“service condition”). The total number of shares of common stock that may be earned from the performance condition ranges from zero to 200% of the RSUs granted. The number of shares earned from the performance condition may be further increased by 10% or decreased by 10% based on the Company’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group during the performance period (“market condition”). The average grant date fair value for these RSUs, with consideration of the market condition, was $202.84 per unit, which was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model, applying the following assumptions:

 

Expected volatility (Company)

43.8%

Expected volatility (peer group median)

30.5%

Correlation between the Company and peer group median

0.5

Expected dividend yield

0.0%

Risk-free rate

4.5%

 

The expected volatilities and correlation are based on the historical daily returns of our common stock and the common stocks of the constituents of our peer group over the most recent period equal to the measurement period. The expected dividend yield is based on our history of not paying regular dividends in the past and our current intention to not pay regular dividends in the foreseeable future. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and has a term equal to the measurement period.

We base our estimate of deferred tax assets and liabilities on current tax laws and rates. In certain cases, we also base our estimate on business plan forecasts and other expectations about future outcomes. Changes in existing tax laws or rates could affect our actual tax results, and future business results may affect the amount of our deferred tax liabilities or the valuation of our deferred tax assets over time. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, particularly with respect to changes in facts and circumstances in future reporting periods, as well as the residential homebuilding industry’s cyclicality and sensitivity to changes in economic conditions, it is possible that actual results could differ from the estimates used in previous analyses. These differences could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

As of March 31, 2024, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $66.5 million under our Revolving Facility that principally support our self-insurance programs.

The Company has a number of known and threatened construction defect legal claims. While these claims are generally covered under the Company’s existing insurance programs to the extent any loss exceeds the deductible, there is a reasonable possibility of loss that is not able to be estimated at this time because (i) many of the proceedings are in the discovery stage, (ii) the outcome of future litigation is uncertain, and/or (iii) the complex nature of the claims. Although the Company cannot estimate a reasonable range of loss based on currently available information, the resolution of these matters could materially affect the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In addition, we are involved in various other claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in amounts in excess of our self-insured retention that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of such claims and lawsuits. Although the ultimate disposition of these other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any such claims that are pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not materially affect our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, there can be no assurances that future adverse judgments and costs would not be material to our results of operations or liquidity for a particular period.

12. Subsequent Events

Business Combinations

Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we completed a transaction to acquire certain assets and the operations of Schoeneman’s Building Materials who manufactures trusses and distributes building material products in the Sioux Falls, South Dakota area. The accounting for this business combination has not been completed at the date of this filing given the proximity of the acquisition date.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in our 2023 Form 10-K. The following discussion and analysis should also be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Cautionary Statement

Statements in this report and the schedules hereto that are not purely historical facts or that necessarily depend upon future events, including statements about expected market share gains, forecasted financial performance, industry and business outlook or other statements about anticipations, beliefs, expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies for the future, may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. In addition, oral statements made by our directors, officers and employees to the investor and analyst communities, media representatives and others, depending upon their nature, may also constitute forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based upon currently available information and the Company’s current assumptions, expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements are by nature inherently uncertain, and actual results or events may differ materially from the results or events described in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control or may be currently unknown to the Company, that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements; such risks or uncertainties include those related to the Company’s growth strategies, including acquisitions, organic growth and digital strategies, or the dependence of the Company’s revenues and operating results on, among other things, the homebuilding industry and, to a lesser extent, repair and remodel activity, which in each case is dependent on economic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, consumer confidence, labor and supply shortages, and also lumber and other commodity prices. The Company may not succeed in addressing these and other risks. Further information regarding the risk factors that could affect our financial and other results can be found in the risk factors section of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently, all forward-looking statements in this report are qualified by the factors, risks and uncertainties contained therein.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

We are a leading supplier and manufacturer of building materials, manufactured components and construction services to professional contractors, sub-contractors and consumers. The Company operates approximately 570 locations in 43 states across the United States, which are internally organized into geographic operating divisions. Due to the similar economic characteristics, categories of products, distribution methods and customers, our operating divisions are aggregated into one reportable segment.

We offer an integrated solution to our customers, providing manufacturing, supply and installation of a full range of structural and related building products. Our manufactured products include our factory-built roof and floor trusses, wall panels and stairs, vinyl windows, custom millwork and trim, as well as engineered wood that we design, cut, and assemble for each home. We also assemble interior and exterior doors into pre-hung units. Additionally, we supply our customers with a broad offering of professional-grade building products not manufactured by us, such as dimensional lumber and lumber sheet goods and various window, door and millwork lines, along with a full complement of specialty building products. Our full range of construction-related services includes professional installation, turn-key framing and shell construction, and spans our product categories.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Business Combinations

During the period, we completed the acquisitions of Quality Door and Hanson Truss for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $59.0 million. These acquisitions further expand our market footprint and provide additional operations in our value-add product categories. These transactions are described in further detail in Note 2 to these condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Company Shares Repurchases

Under share repurchase programs authorized by the board of directors since August 2021, the Company has repurchased a total of 87.2 million shares of common stock, or 42.2% of the Company’s total shares outstanding, at an average price of $70.42, inclusive of applicable fees and taxes. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 0.1 million shares at a weighted average price of $202.67 per share, inclusive of applicable fees and taxes, for a total cost of $19.6 million. On February 22,

15


 

2024, the board of directors approved a new $1.0 billion share repurchase authorization, inclusive of the $0.2 billion remaining outstanding in the prior share repurchase plan authorized in April 2023. At March 31, 2024, the Company had $980.4 million in authorized share repurchases remaining.

Debt Transaction

On February 29, 2024, the Company completed a private offering of $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of the 6.375% 2034 Notes at an issue price equal to 100% of par value. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Facility and pay related transaction fees and expenses.

This transaction is described in Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. From time to time, based on market conditions and other factors and subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations, the Company may repurchase or call its notes, repay debt, repurchase shares of its common stock or otherwise enter into transactions regarding its capital structure.

CURRENT OPERATING CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, actual U.S. total housing starts were 0.3 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 1.3% compared to the first quarter of 2023. Actual U.S. single-family starts for the first quarter of 2024 were 0.2 million, an increase of 27.0% compared to the first quarter of 2023. A composite of third-party sources, including the National Association of Home Builders, are forecasting 1.4 million U.S. total housing starts and 1.0 million U.S single-family housing starts for 2024, which is relatively flat and an increase of 4.4%, respectively, from 2023. In addition, the Home Improvement Research Institute is forecasting sales in the professional repair and remodel end market to increase approximately 1.3% in 2024 compared to 2023.

We believe the long-term outlook for the housing industry is positive and that the housing industry remains underbuilt due to growth in the underlying demographics compared to historical new construction levels. While historically low existing homes for sale has provided some current resiliency for new home sales, rising interest rates and inflation have tempered near term demand as homes become less affordable for consumers, investors and builders. We believe we are well-positioned to take advantage of favorable long-term industry trends and to strategically increase our market share, both organically and through acquisitions. We will continue to focus on working capital by closely monitoring the credit exposure of our customers, remaining focused on maintaining the right level of inventory and by working with our vendors to improve payment terms and pricing on our products. We strive to achieve the appropriate balance of short-term expense control while maintaining the expertise and capacity to grow the business as market conditions expand.

SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS

Our first and fourth quarters have historically been, and are generally expected to continue to be, adversely affected by weather causing reduced construction activity during these quarters. In addition, quarterly results historically have reflected, and are expected to continue to reflect, fluctuations from period to period arising from the following:

The cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry;
General economic conditions in the markets in which we compete;
The volatility of lumber prices;
The pricing policies of our competitors;
Disruptions in our supply chain;
The production schedules of our customers; and
The effects of weather.

The composition and level of working capital typically change during periods of increasing sales as we carry more inventory and receivables. Working capital levels typically increase in the first and second quarters of the year due to higher sales during the peak residential construction season. These increases may result in negative operating cash flows during this peak season, which historically have been financed through available cash and borrowing availability under credit facilities. Generally, collection of receivables and reduction in inventory levels following the peak building and construction season positively impact cash flow.

Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were $3.9 billion, a 0.2% increase over net sales of $3.9 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Net sales from acquisitions increased net sales by 1.9%, partially offset by commodity price deflation of 1.7%, while core organic sales remained flat due to the effect of gains from single-family starts increases being offset by decreases in the multi-family, repair-and-remodel and other segments.

We experienced increased net sales in our lumber and lumber sheet goods due to increased single-family housing starts and acquired locations, with the lumber and lumber sheet goods increase partially offset by commodity deflation. Our manufactured products sales declined primarily due to decreased multi-family activity and commodity price deflation. For the comparable period, specialty building products and services and windows, doors and millwork sales remained relatively flat.

Gross Margin. Gross margin decreased $0.1 billion to $1.3 billion. Our gross margin percentage decreased to 33.4% in the first quarter of 2024 from 35.3% in the first quarter of 2023, a 1.9% decrease. This decrease was attributable to a timing shift in product mix toward lower-margin, early stage homebuilding products, as well as margin normalization, particularly in our multi-family operations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $22.0 million, or 2.4%, primarily due to additional operating expenses from additional locations acquired within the last twelve months. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 23.8%, up from 23.3% in the first quarter of 2023.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $48.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $6.2 million from the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher debt balances with the issuance of the 6.375% 2034 Notes.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded income tax expense of $66.5 million and $91.3 million in the first quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in the tax expense was primarily driven by a decrease in income before income taxes in the current period. Our effective tax rate was 20.4% in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease from 21.5% in the first quarter of 2023, primarily related to an increase in our stock-based compensation windfall benefit, partially offset by permanent and other differences.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary capital requirements are to fund working capital needs and operating expenses, meet required interest and principal payments, and to fund capital expenditures and potential future growth opportunities. Our capital resources at March 31, 2024, consist of cash on hand and borrowing availability under our Revolving Facility.

Our Revolving Facility is primarily used for working capital, general corporate purposes and funding capital expenditures and growth opportunities. In addition, we may use borrowings under the Revolving Facility to facilitate debt repayment and consolidation and to fund share repurchases. Availability under the Revolving Facility is determined by a borrowing base. Our borrowing base consists of trade accounts receivable, inventory, other receivables, and qualified cash that all meet specific criteria contained within the credit agreement, minus agent specified reserves. Net excess borrowing availability is equal to the maximum borrowing amount minus outstanding borrowings and letters of credit.

The following table shows our borrowing base and excess availability as of:

As of March 31, 2024, we did not have any outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Facility, and our net excess borrowing availability was $1.7 billion after being reduced by outstanding letters of credit totaling $66.5 million. Excess availability must equal or exceed a minimum specified amount, currently $180.0 million, or we are required to meet a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00. We were not in violation of any covenants or restrictions imposed by any of our debt agreements at March 31, 2024.

Liquidity

Our liquidity at March 31, 2024, was $2.4 billion, which consists of net borrowing availability under the Revolving Facility and cash on hand.

Our level of indebtedness results in significant interest expense and could have the effect of, among other things, reducing our flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. From time to time, based on market conditions and other factors and subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations, we may repurchase or call our notes, repay, refinance or modify our debt or otherwise enter into transactions regarding our capital structure.

18


 

If industry conditions deteriorate or if we pursue additional acquisitions, we may be required to raise additional funds through the sale of capital stock or debt in the public capital markets or in privately negotiated transactions. There can be no assurance that any of these financing options would be available on favorable terms, if at all. Alternatives to help supplement our liquidity position could include, but are not limited to, idling or permanently closing additional facilities, adjusting our headcount in response to current business conditions, attempts to renegotiate leases, managing our working capital and/or divesting of non-core businesses. There are no assurances that these steps would prove successful or materially improve our liquidity position.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Cash provided by operating activities was $0.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $0.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was largely the result of lower net income and an increase in net working capital in the first three months of 2024.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the cash used in investing decreased $27.8 million when compared to the prior year primarily due to using $20.3 million less cash for acquisitions and $10.2 million less cash for net purchases of property and equipment.

Cash provided by financing activities was $465.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which consisted primarily of a net $987.5 million received for the issuance of the 6.375% 2034 Notes, offset by $464.0 million net payments on the Revolving Facility. Cash used in financing activities was $411.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which consisted primarily of $603.8 million repurchases of common stock, offset by $217.0 million in net borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the accurate portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and require subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

To prepare financial statements that conform to generally accepted accounting principles, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Certain estimates are particularly sensitive due to their significance to the financial statements and the possibility that future events may be significantly different from our expectations.

Refer to Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of our critical accounting estimates and assumptions.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Information regarding recent accounting pronouncements is discussed in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We may experience changes in interest expense if changes in our debt occur. Changes in market interest rates could also affect our interest expense. Our 5.00% 2030 Notes, 4.25% 2032 Notes, 6.375% 2032 Notes and 6.375% 2034 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate, and therefore our interest expense related to these notes would not be affected by an increase in market interest rates. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at either a base rate or SOFR, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. We did not have any outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2024. The Revolving Facility also assesses variable commitment and outstanding letter of credit fees based on quarterly average loan utilization.

We purchase certain materials, including lumber products, which are then sold to customers as well as used as direct production inputs for our manufactured products that we deliver. Short-term changes in the cost of these materials and the related in-bound freight costs, some of which are subject to significant fluctuations, are sometimes, but not always, passed on to our customers. Delays in our ability to pass on material price increases to our customers can adversely impact our operating results.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

19


 

Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), are attached as exhibits to this quarterly report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of their objectives and design, the Company’s implementation of the controls and procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this quarterly report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, were being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit department, by our legal department and by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.

Conclusions Regarding Disclosure Controls. Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, we maintained disclosure controls and procedures that were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

The Company has a number of known and threatened construction defect legal claims. While these claims are generally covered under the Company’s existing insurance programs to the extent any loss exceeds the deductible, there is a reasonable possibility of loss that is not able to be estimated at this time because (i) many of the proceedings are in the discovery stage, (ii) the outcome of future litigation is uncertain, and/or (iii) the complex nature of the claims.

In addition, we are involved in various other claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of such claims and lawsuits.

Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the outcome of any such claims that are currently pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, there can be no assurances that future adverse judgments and costs would not be material to our results of operations or liquidity for a particular period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2023 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our 2023 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

There were no material changes to the risk factors reported in Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2023 Form 10-K.

In the first quarter of 2024, 0.1 million shares were repurchased and retired pursuant to share repurchase programs authorized by our board of directors. The remaining 338,890 shares presented in the table above represent stock tendered in order to meet tax withholding requirements for restricted stock units vested. Share repurchases under the program may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, block trades, accelerated share repurchases, trading plans in accordance with Rule 10b-5 or Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, or any combination of such methods. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock, and the share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
