BEACON ROOFING SUPPLY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Company Overview

Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 22, 1997 and is the largest publicly traded distributor of residential and non-residential roofing materials and complementary building products in the United States and Canada.

On January 2, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of all the outstanding capital stock of Allied Building Products Corp. (“Allied”), a New Jersey corporation, for $2.625 billion, subject to certain working capital and other adjustments. Allied engages in the distribution of roofing materials, drywall, ceiling tile, and related accessories in the United States and was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oldcastle Distribution, Inc. (see Note 3 for further discussion).

The Company operates its business under regional and local trade names and, as of March 31, 2019, the Company serviced customers in all 50 states within the United States and 6 provinces in Canada. The Company’s material subsidiaries are Beacon Sales Acquisition, Inc. and Beacon Roofing Supply Canada Company.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information have been condensed or omitted. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The balance sheet as of March 31, 2018 has been presented for a better understanding of the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the Company’s financial condition.

In management’s opinion, the financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results. The results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the twelve months ending September 30, 2019 (“fiscal year 2019” or “2019”).

The three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 had 63 and 64 business days, respectively, and the six-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 each had 125 business days .

These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company’s fiscal year 2018 (“2018”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to such estimates include accounts receivable, inventories, purchase price allocations, goodwill and intangibles, and income taxes. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements—Adopted

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers .” This guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and replaces most previously issued revenue recognition guidance. The new standard is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption methods. The Company elected the modified retrospective method and adopted the standard as of October 1, 2018 utilizing the portfolio practical expedient. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s retained earnings and did not have a material impact on the Company’s net sales recognition practices, income from operations, or net income per share amounts. The adoption of this guidance did result in certain balance sheet reclassifications to record estimated customer returns, specifically the recognition of a current liability for the gross amount of estimated returns and a current asset for the value of the related products. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019. In addition, the adoption of this guidance resulted in additional quantitative

8


disclosures to disaggregate net sales balances by product line and geog raphy. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion .

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “ Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” This guidance is intended to assist entities when evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities constitutes a business. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted the standard as of October 1, 2018 and the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Scope of Modification Accounting.” This guidance is intended to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Compensation – Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted the standard as of October 1, 2018 and the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement and related disclosures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements—Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “ Leases .” This guidance will replace most existing accounting for lease guidance when it becomes effective. This new standard is effective using the modified retrospective approach for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB amended the new lease standard which, among other changes, allows a company to elect to adopt ASU 2016-02 using a transition option whereby a cumulative effect adjustment is recorded to the opening balance of its retained earnings on the adoption date. The guidance will require the Company to record a right of use asset and a lease liability for most of the Company’s leases, including those currently treated as operating leases. The Company will adopt the standard as of October 1, 2019 and will use the practical expedients outlined in the transition guidance. The scope of the overall impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures is still being quantified.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance is intended to introduce a revised approach to the recognition and measurement of credit losses, emphasizing an updated model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “ Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment.” This guidance is intended to introduce a simplified approach to measurement of goodwill impairment, eliminating the need for a hypothetical purchase price allocation and instead measuring impairment by the amount a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income.” This guidance is intended to address the accounting treatment for the tax effects on items within accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of the adoption of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. This new standard is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods contained therein, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

3. Acquisitions

Allied Building Products Corp.

On January 2, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of all the outstanding capital stock of Allied (the “Allied Acquisition”), pursuant to a certain stock purchase agreement dated August 24, 2017 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, Oldcastle, Inc., as parent, and Oldcastle Distribution, Inc., as seller, for approximately $2.625 billion in cash, subject to a working capital and certain other adjustments as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Price”). As of March 31, 2019, the adjusted Purchase Price for Allied was $2.88 billion, including increases of (i) $164.0 million related to the impact of the Section 338(h)(10) election under the current U.S. tax code and (ii) $88.1 million from a recorded net working capital adjustment.

9


In connection with the Allied Acquisition, on the C losing D ate the Company entered into (i) a new term loan agreement with Citibank, N.A., providing for a term loan B facility with an initial commitment of $970.0 million and (ii) an amended and restated cr edit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., providing for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility with an initial commitment of $1.30 billion. Base borrowing rates on these facilities are at LIBOR plus 1.25% and LIBOR plus 2.25%, respectivel y.

In connection with the Allied Acquisition, on the Closing Date, the Company completed the sale of 400,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), with an aggregate liquidation preference of $400.0 million, at a purchase price of $1,000 per share, to CD&R Boulder Holdings, L.P., pursuant to a certain investment agreement, dated as of August 24, 2017, with CD&R Boulder Holdings, L.P. and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice Fund IX, L.P. (solely for the purpose of limited provisions therein) (the “Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase”). The $400.0 million in proceeds from the Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase were used to finance, in part, the Purchase Price. The Preferred Stock is convertible perpetual participating preferred stock of the Company, and conversion of the Preferred Stock into $0.01 par value shares of the Company’s common stock will be at a conversion price of $41.26 per share. The Preferred Stock accumulates dividends at a rate of 6.0% per annum (payable in cash or in-kind, subject to certain conditions). The Preferred Stock is not mandatorily redeemable; therefore, it is classified as mezzanine equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and has a balance of $399.2 million (the $400.0 million proceeds received on the Closing Date, net of $0.8 million of unamortized issuance costs) as of March 31, 2019.

Allied’s results of operations have been included with Company’s consolidated results beginning January 2, 2018. Allied distributed products in 208 locations across 31 states as of the date of the close.

The Allied Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the requirements of ASC 805, “ Business Combinations .” The acquisition price has been allocated among assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value based on information currently available, with the excess recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expected synergies from the Allied assembled workforce operating the branches as part of a larger network and the value stemming from the addition of both new customers and an established new line of business (interiors). As of March 31, 2019, the Company had finalized the purchase accounting entries for the Allied Acquisition, detailed as follows (in thousands):

The purchase accounting entries above include the impact of the Section 338(h)(10) election under the current U.S. tax code. The Company made this election on October 15, 2018 and has reflected the $164.0 million impact of this election in the purchase price and its fiscal year 2018 tax provision accordingly. The Company determined that $1.14 billion of goodwill related to the acquisition of Allied is deductible for tax purposes as of March 31, 2019.

The Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived trade name are tested for impairment annually, and all acquired goodwill and intangible assets are subject to review for impairment should future indicators of impairment develop. There were no material contingencies assumed as part of the Allied Acquisition.

Additional Acquisitions – Fiscal Year 2018

During fiscal year 2018, the Company acquired 7 branches from the following acquisitions:

 

On May 1, 2018, the Company acquired Tri-State Builder’s Supply, a wholesale supplier of roofing, siding, windows, doors and related building products with 1 branch located in Duluth, Minnesota and annual sales of approximately $6 million.

 

On July 16, 2018, the Company acquired Atlas Supply, Inc., the Pacific Northwest’s leading distributor of sealants, coatings, adhesives and related waterproofing products, with 6 branches operating in Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, and

10


 

Mountlake Terrace in Washington, as well as locations in Portland, Oregon and Boise, Idaho, and annual sales of approximately $37 million .

The Company has recorded purchase accounting entries on a preliminary basis for these transactions that recognized the acquired assets and liabilities at their estimated fair values as of the respective acquisition dates. These transactions resulted in goodwill of $7.6 million ($7.2 million of which is deductible for tax purposes as of March 31, 2019) and $11.4 million in intangible assets .

For those acquisitions where the acquisition accounting entries have yet to be finalized, the Company’s allocation of the purchase price is subject to change on receipt of additional information, including, but not limited to, the finalization of asset valuations (intangible and fixed) and income tax accounting, as well as the Company’s continued review of the assumed liabilities that may result in the recognition of changes to the carrying amounts on the opening balance sheet and a related adjustment to goodwill.

4. Net Sales

The Company records net sales when performance obligations with our customer are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer a distinct good to the customer and is the unit of account. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as net sales when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. All contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual good is not separately identifiable from other promises and is, therefore, not distinct. Performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time and net sales are recognized when the customer accepts the delivery of a product or takes possession of a product with rights and rewards of ownership.

The Company enters into agreements with customers to offer rebates, generally based on achievement of specified sales levels and various marketing allowances that are common industry practice. Reductions to net sales for customer programs and incentive offerings, including promotions and other volume-based incentives, are estimated using the most likely amount method and recorded in the period in which the sale occurs. Provisions for early payment discounts are accrued in the same period in which the sale occurs. The Company does not have any material payment terms as payment is received shortly after the transfer of control of the products to the customer. Commissions to internal sales teams are paid to obtain contracts. As these contracts are less than one year, these costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company includes shipping and handling costs billed to customers in net sales. Related costs are accounted for as fulfillment activities and are recognized as cost of products sold when control of the products transfers to the customer.

The following table presents the Company’s net sales by product line and geography for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 (in thousands):

5. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common share equivalents or the conversion of Preferred Stock. Common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock unit awards. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the fully diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Holders of Preferred Stock participate in dividends on an as-converted basis when declared on common shares. As a result, Preferred Stock is classified as a participating security and thereby requires the allocation of income that would have otherwise been available to common shareholders when calculating net income (loss) per share.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by utilizing the most dilutive result of the if-converted and two-class methods. In both methods, net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the weighted-average common shares outstanding are adjusted to account for the impact of the assumed issuance of potential common shares that are dilutive, subject to dilution sequencing rules.

6. Stock-based Compensation

On February 9, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved the Amended and Restated Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. 2014 Stock Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2014 Plan provides for discretionary awards of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights for up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock to selected employees and non-employee directors. The 2014 Plan mandates that all forfeited, expired, and withheld shares, including those from the predecessor plans, be returned to the 2014 Plan and made available for issuance. As of March 31, 2019, there were 1,720,132 shares of common stock available for issuance.

Prior to the 2014 Plan, the Company maintained the amended and restated Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. 2004 Stock Plan (the “2004 Plan”). Upon shareholder approval of the 2014 Plan, the Company ceased issuing equity awards from the 2004 Plan and mandated that all future equity awards will be issued from the 2014 Plan.

For all equity awards granted prior to October 1, 2014, in the event of a change in control of the Company, all awards are immediately vested. Beginning in fiscal 2015, equity awards contained a “double trigger” change in control mechanism. Unless an award is continued or assumed by a public company in an equitable manner, an award shall become fully vested immediately prior to a change in control (at 100% of the grant target in the case of a performance-based restricted stock unit award). If an award is so continued or assumed, vesting will continue in accordance with the terms of the award, unless there is a qualifying termination within one-year following the change in control, in which event the award shall immediately become fully vested (at 100% of the grant target in the case of a performance-based restricted stock unit award).

Stock Options

Non-qualified stock options granted to employees generally expire 10 years after the grant date and are subject to continued employment and vest evenly in three annual installments over the three-year period following the grant date.

The fair value of the stock options granted during the six months ended March 31, 2019 were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards granted to employees are subject to continued employment and generally vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. The Company also grants certain RSU awards to management that contain one or more additional vesting conditions tied directly to a defined performance metric for the Company. The actual number of RSUs that will vest can range from 0% to 200% of the original grant amount, depending upon the terms of the award and actual Company performance above or below the established performance metric targets. The Company estimates performance in relation to the defined targets when determining the projected number of RSUs that are expected to vest and calculating the related stock-based compensation expense.

RSUs granted to non-employee directors are subject to continued service and vest on the first anniversary of the grant date (except under certain conditions). Generally, the common shares underlying the RSUs are not eligible for distribution until the non-employee director’s service on the Board has terminated, and for non-employee director RSU grants made prior to fiscal year 2014, the share distribution date is six months after the director’s termination of service on the board. Beginning in fiscal year 2016, the Company enacted a policy that allows any non-employee directors who have Beacon equity holdings (defined as common stock and outstanding vested equity awards) with a total fair value that is greater than or equal to five times the annual Board cash retainer to elect to have any future RSU grants settle simultaneously with vesting.

Financing - Allied Acquisition

In connection with the Allied Acquisition, the Company entered into various financing arrangements totaling $3.57 billion, including an asset-based revolving line of credit of $1.30 billion (“2023 ABL”), $525.0 million of which was drawn at closing, and a $970.0 million term loan (“2025 Term Loan”). The Company also raised an additional $1.30 billion through the issuance of senior notes (the “2025 Senior Notes”).

The proceeds from these financing arrangements were used to finance the Allied Acquisition, to refinance or otherwise extinguish all third-party indebtedness, to pay fees and expenses associated with the acquisition, and to provide working capital and funds for other general corporate purposes. The Company capitalized new debt issuance costs totaling approximately $65.3 million related to the 2023 ABL, the 2025 Term Loan and the 2025 Senior Notes.

Since the financing arrangements entered into in connection with the Allied Acquisition had certain lenders who also participated in previous financing arrangements entered into by the Company, portions of the transactions were accounted for as either a debt modification or a debt extinguishment. In accordance with the accounting for debt modification, the Company expensed $2.0 million of debt issuance costs related to the Allied financing arrangements and recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.7 million. The remainder of the debt issuance costs will be amortized over the term of the Allied financing arrangements.

16


2023 ABL

On January 2, 2018, the Company entered into a $1.30 billion asset-based revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2023 ABL consists of revolving loans in both the United States (“2023 U.S. Revolver”) in the amount of $1.20 billion and Canada (“2023 Canada Revolver”) in the amount of $100.0 million. The 2023 ABL has a maturity date of January 2, 2023. The 2023 ABL has various borrowing tranches with an interest rate based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The current unused commitment fees on the 2023 ABL are 0.25% per annum.

There is one financial covenant under the 2023 ABL, which is a Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio. The Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) by Consolidated Fixed Charges (both as defined in the agreement). Per the covenant, the Company’s Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio must be a minimum of 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter, calculated on a trailing four quarter basis. The Company was in compliance with this covenant as of March 31, 2019.

The 2023 ABL is secured by a first priority lien over substantially all of the Company’s and each guarantor’s accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, books, records and inventory (as well as intangibles related thereto), subject to certain customary exceptions (the “ABL Priority Collateral”), and a second priority lien over substantially all of the Company’s and each guarantor’s other assets, including all of the equity interests of any subsidiary held by the Company or any guarantor, subject to certain customary exceptions (the “Term Priority Collateral”). The 2023 ABL is guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by the Company’s active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the total balance outstanding on the 2023 ABL, net of $9.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $416.6 million. The Company also has outstanding standby letters of credit related to the 2023 U.S. Revolver in the amount of $13.4 million as of March 31, 2019.

2025 Term Loan

On January 2, 2018, the Company entered into a $970.0 million Term Loan with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2025 Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments in the amount of $2.4 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its January 2, 2025 maturity date. The interest rate is based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The Company has the option of selecting a LIBOR period that determines the rate at which interest can accrue on the Term Loan as well as the period in which interest payments are made.

The 2025 Term Loan is secured by a first priority lien on the Term Priority Collateral and a second priority lien on the ABL Priority Collateral. Certain excluded assets will not be included in the Term Priority Collateral and the ABL Priority Collateral. The Term Loan is guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by the Company’s active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2025 Term Loan, net of $31.7 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $928.6 million.

2025 Senior Notes

On October 25, 2017, Beacon Escrow Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Escrow Issuer”), completed a private offering of $1.30 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2025 at an issue price of 100%. The 2025 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.875% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, beginning May 1, 2018. The Company anticipates repaying the 2025 Senior Notes at the maturity date of November 1, 2025. Per the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the net proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes remained in escrow until they were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of the Allied Acquisition payable at closing on January 2, 2018.

Upon closing of the Allied Acquisition on January 2, 2018, (i) the Escrow Issuer merged with and into the Company, and the Company assumed all obligations under the 2025 Senior Notes; and (ii) all existing domestic subsidiaries of the Company (including the entities acquired in the Allied Acquisition) became guarantors of the 2025 Senior Notes.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2025 Senior Notes, net of $18.5 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $1.28 billion.

Financing - RSG Acquisition

In connection with the Roofing Supply Group (“RSG”) acquisition in fiscal year 2016, the Company entered into various financing arrangements totaling $1.45 billion, including an asset-based revolving line of credit (“2020 ABL”) of $700.0 million ($350.0 million of which was drawn at closing) and a $450.0 million term loan (“2022 Term Loan”). The Company also raised an additional $300.0 million through the issuance of senior notes (the “2023 Senior Notes”).

17


The proceeds from these financing arrangements were used to provide working capital and funds for other general corporate purposes, to refinance or otherwise extinguish all third-party indebtedness, to fina nce the acquisition, and to pay fees and expenses associated with the RSG acquisition. The Company incurred debt issuance costs totaling approximately $31.3 million related to the 2020 ABL, 2022 Term Loan and 2023 Senior Notes.

2020 ABL

On October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $700.0 million asset-based revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2020 ABL had an original maturity date of October 1, 2020 and consisted of revolving loans in both the United States, in the amount of $670.0 million, and Canada, in the amount of $30.0 million. The 2020 ABL had various borrowing tranches with an interest rate based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The full balance of the 2020 ABL was paid on January 2, 2018 in conjunction with the Allied Acquisition.

2022 Term Loan

On October 1, 2015, the Company entered into a $450.0 million Term Loan with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2022 Term Loan required quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.1 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its original maturity date of October 1, 2022. The interest rate was based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The Company had the option of selecting a LIBOR period that determined the rate at which interest would accrue, as well as the period in which interest payments are made. The full balance of the 2022 Term Loan was paid on January 2, 2018 in conjunction with the Allied Acquisition, including the write-off of $0.7 million in debt issuance costs.

2023 Senior Notes

On October 1, 2015, the Company raised $300.0 million by issuing senior notes due 2023. The 2023 Senior Notes have a coupon rate of 6.38% per annum and are payable semi-annually in arrears, beginning April 1, 2016. There are early payment provisions in the indenture in which the Company would be subject to “make whole” provisions. The Company anticipates repaying the notes at the maturity date of October 1, 2023.

The 2023 Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by the Company’s active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2023 Senior Notes, net of $5.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $294.2 million.

Equipment Financing Facilities and Other

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had $9.1 million outstanding under equipment financing facilities, with fixed interest rates ranging from 2.33% to 3.25% and payments due through September 2021.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had $9.7 million of capital lease obligations outstanding. These leases have interest rates ranging from 2.72% to 10.39% with payments due through November 2021.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company mostly operates in leased facilities, which are accounted for as operating leases. The leases typically provide for a base rent plus real estate taxes. Certain of the leases provide for escalating rents over the lives of the leases and rent expense is recognized over the terms of those leases on a straight-line basis.

At March 31, 2019, the minimum rental commitments under all non-cancelable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of more than one year were as follows (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , rent expense was $27.9 million and $28.5 million , respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , rent expense was $55.4 million and $43.7 million, respectively. Sublet income was immaterial for each of these periods.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to loss contingencies pursuant to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations; however, the Company is not aware of any reasonably possible losses that would have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. Potential loss contingencies include possible obligations to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical or other substances by the Company or by other parties. In connection with its acquisitions, the Company’s practice is to request indemnification for any and all known material liabilities of significance as of the respective dates of acquisition. Historically, environmental liabilities have not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

The Company is subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business; however, the Company does not expect the results, if any, to have a material adverse impact on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

11. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) is composed of certain gains and losses that are excluded from net income under GAAP and instead recorded as a separate element of stockholders’ equity. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, the change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was $1.5 million and $(2.4) million, respectively, and composed solely of foreign currency translation effects. There were no reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019.

12. Fair Value Measurement

As of March 31, 2019, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures its cash equivalents at amortized cost, which approximates fair value based upon quoted market prices (Level 1).

As of March 31, 2019, based upon recent trading prices (Level 2), the fair value of the Company’s $300.0 million Senior Notes due in 2023 was $312.0 million and the fair value of the $1.30 billion Senior Notes due 2025 was $1.24 billion.

As of March 31, 2019, the fair value of the Company’s term loan and revolving asset-based line of credit approximated the amount outstanding. The Company estimates the fair value of its Senior Secured Credit Facility by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using estimated market rates of debt instruments with similar maturities and credit profiles (Level 3).

13. Supplemental Guarantor Information

The 2023 Senior Notes and 2025 Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally by all the United States subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the “Guarantors”), and not by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Company. Such guarantees are full and unconditional. Supplemental condensed consolidating financial information of the Company, including such information for the Guarantors, is presented below. The information is presented in accordance with the requirements of Rule 3-10 under the SEC’s Regulation S-X. The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations, cash flows or financial position had the non-guarantor subsidiaries operated as independent entities. Investments in subsidiaries are presented using the equity method of accounting. The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. Separate financial statements of the Guarantors are not provided as the consolidating financial information contained herein provides a more meaningful disclosure to allow investors to determine the nature of the assets held by, and the operations of, the combined groups.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this document. Unless otherwise indicated, references to “2019” refer to the three and six months ended March 31, 2019   being discussed and references to “2018” refer to the three and six months ended March 31, 2018   being discussed. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements except as required by law.

Overview

We are the largest publicly traded distributor of residential and non-residential roofing materials in the United States and Canada. We also distribute complementary building products, including siding, windows, specialty exterior building products, insulation, waterproofing systems, wallboard and acoustical ceiling tiles. We are among the oldest and most established distributors in the industry. We purchase products from a large number of manufacturers and then distribute these goods to a customer base consisting of contractors and, to a lesser extent, general contractors, retailers, and building materials suppliers.

As of March 31, 2019, we operated   539 branches in   50 states throughout the United States and 6 provinces in Canada. We stock one of the most extensive assortments of high-quality branded products in the industry with approximately 90,000 SKUs available across our branch network, enabling us to deliver products to serve over 100,000 customers on a timely basis.

On January 2, 2018, we completed the acquisition of all the outstanding capital stock of Allied Building Products Corp. (“Allied”), a New Jersey Corporation (the “Allied Acquisition”), for approximately $2.625 billion, subject to working capital and other adjustments (the “Purchase Price”). As of March 31, 2019, the adjusted Purchase Price for Allied was $2.88 billion and purchase accounting entries were finalized. Headquartered in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Allied was one of the country’s largest exterior and interior building products distributors, distributing products across 208 locations in 31 states in the U.S. with a strong presence in New York, New Jersey, Florida, California, Hawaii and the upper Midwest at the time of the acquisition. We believe the acquisition of Allied was a strategically and financially compelling transaction that expanded our geographic footprint, enhanced our scale and market presence, diversified our product offerings, and positioned us to provide new growth opportunities that will increase our long-term profitability.

Effective execution of both the sales and operating plans enables us to grow beyond the relative strength of the markets we serve. Our business model is a bottom-up approach, where each of our branches uses its regional knowledge and experience to assist with the development of a marketing plan and stocking a product mix that is best suited for its respective market. Local alignment with overall strategic goals provides the foundation for significant ownership of results at the branch level.

Our distinctive operational model combined with significant branch level autonomy differentiates us from the competition. We provide our customers with value-added services, including, but not limited to, job site delivery, custom designed tapered roofing systems, metal fabrication, and trade credit. We consider customer relations and our employees’ knowledge of roofing and building materials to be vital to our ability to increase customer loyalty and maintain customer satisfaction. Our customers’ business success can be enhanced when they are supported by our efficient and effective distribution network. We invest significant resources in professional development, management skills, product knowledge and operational proficiency. We pride ourselves on providing these capabilities developed on a foundation of continuous improvement driving service excellence, productivity and efficiencies.

We seek opportunities to expand our business operations through both acquisitions and organic growth (opening branches, growing sales with existing customers, adding new customers and introducing new products). Our main acquisition strategy is to target market leaders that do business in geographic areas that we currently do not service or that complement our existing regional operations. In addition to our acquisition of Allied, our recent success in delivering on our growth strategy is highlighted by the following:

 

On May 1, 2018, we acquired Tri-State Builder’s Supply, a wholesale supplier of roofing, siding, windows, doors and related building products with 1 branch located in Duluth, Minnesota and annual sales of approximately $6 million.

 

On July 16, 2018, we acquired Atlas Supply, Inc., the Pacific Northwest’s leading distributor of sealants, coatings, adhesives and related waterproofing products, with 6 branches operating in Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, and Mountlake Terrace in Washington, as well as locations in Portland, Oregon and Boise, Idaho, and annual sales of approximately $37 million.

In addition, we have opened five new branches in fiscal year 2019, including locations in Plano, Texas; Panama City, Florida; Odessa, Florida; Fresno, California; and Reno, Nevada. New branch locations allow us to penetrate deeper into our existing markets and establish a greater presence.

In managing our business, we consider all growth, including the opening of new branches, to be organic growth unless it results from an acquisition. When we refer to growth in existing markets or organic growth, we include growth from existing and newly opened branches but exclude growth from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal reporting period. We believe the existing market information is useful to investors because it helps explain organic growth or decline. When combined, our existing market information and acquired market information equal our consolidated company totals. When we refer to regions, we are referring to our geographic regions. When we refer to our net product costs, we are referring to our invoice cost less the impact of short-term buying programs (also referred to as “special buys”).

As of March 31, 2019, we had a total of 539 branches in operation. Our existing market calculations include the operating results of the 532 branches that meet our definition (7 branches were excluded because they were acquired after the start of the second quarter of fiscal year 2018).

Existing market operating expense for 2019 and 2018 includes $6.7 million ($4.7 million, net of taxes) and $28.3 million ($20.0 million, net of taxes), respectively, of non-recurring acquisition costs.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales increased 0.2% to $1.43 billion in 2019, a level similar to 2018. Existing market net sales decreased 0.4% to $1.42 billion in 2019, from $1.43 billion in 2018. The year-over-year decrease in existing market net sales was mainly influenced by the following factors:

 

the impact of harsh winter weather in 2019 on the Midwest and West markets;

partially offset by:

 

higher pricing across all major product lines; and

 

stronger demand in the Mid-Atlantic market due to the impact of Hurricane Florence.

Existing market net sales by geographical region increased (decreased) from 2018 to 2019 as follows: Northeast 13.4%; Mid-Atlantic 18.8%; Southeast (3.0%); Southwest (2.7%); Midwest (10.5%); West (10.9%); and Canada 7.7%.

We estimate the impact of inflation or deflation on our sales and gross profit by looking at changes in our average selling prices and gross margins (discussed below).

Product line net sales for our existing markets were as follows (in thousands):

Consolidated gross profit decreased 1.0% to $335.0 million in 2019, from $338.4 million in 2018. Existing market gross profit decreased 1.8% to $332.2 million in 2019, from $338.2 million in 2018.

Consolidated gross margin was 23.4% in 2019, down 0.3% from 23.7% in 2018. Existing market gross margin was 23.4% in 2019, down 0.3% from 23.7% in 2018. The year-over-year decrease in existing market gross margin was mainly influenced by a product cost increase of approximately 5-6% and an unfavorable mix shift, partially offset by a price increase of approximately 5-6% across all products.

Consolidated gross margin and existing market gross margin were the same due to most branches being classified as existing market branches for the period. Consolidated direct sales (products shipped by our vendors directly to our customers), which typically have substantially lower gross margins (and operating expense) compared to our warehouse sales, represented 14.3% and 13.9% of our net sales in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Percentage changes for dollar amounts represent the ratable increase or decrease from period-to-period. Percentage changes for percentages represent the net period-to-period change in basis points.

 

Consolidated operating expense decreased 1.6% to $389.6 million in 2019, from $395.8 million in 2018. Existing market operating expense decreased 2.3% to $386.3 million in 2019, from $395.5 million in 2018. The year-over-year decrease in existing market operating expense was mainly influenced by the following factors:

 

a net decrease in general and administrative expense of $22.7 million, mainly due to higher incursion of one-time costs related to the Allied Acquisition in the prior period;

partially offset by:

 

an increase in amortization expense of $14.1 million, mainly due to the scheduled accelerated run-rate of intangible asset amortization related to the Allied Acquisition; and

 

an increase in selling expense of $3.5 million, mainly due to higher vehicle costs.

During 2019 and 2018, we recorded amortization expense related to the intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting within our existing markets of $51.2 million and $37.1 million, respectively. Our existing market operating expense as a percentage of the related net sales in 2019 was 27.2%, compared to 27.8% in 2018.

Interest Expense, Financing Costs and Other

Interest expense, financing costs and other expense was $40.5 million in 2019, remaining relatively flat compared to $39.6 million in 2018.

Income Taxes

There was an income tax benefit of $27.0 million in 2019, compared to $30.3 million in 2018. The decrease in income tax benefit was mainly driven by the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. In 2018, the Company remeasured its deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the revised corporate tax rate, resulting in a $1.5 million non-recurring net tax benefit for the period. The effective tax rate, excluding any discrete items, was 27.9% in 2019, compared to 29.4% in 2018. We expect our fiscal year 2019 effective tax rate, excluding any discrete items, will range from approximately 27.0% to 28.0%.

Net Income (Loss)/Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) was $(68.1) million in 2019, compared to $(66.7) million in 2018. There were $6.0 million of dividends on preferred shares in 2019 and 2018, making net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of $(74.1) million in 2019, compared to $(72.7) million in 2018. We calculate net income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss), less dividends on preferred shares and adjustments for participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by utilizing the most dilutive result after applying and comparing the two-class method and if-converted method (see Note 5 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

The following table presents all the components utilized to calculate basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

In managing our business, we consider all growth, including the opening of new branches, to be organic growth unless it results from an acquisition. When we refer to growth in existing markets or organic growth, we include growth from existing and newly opened branches but exclude growth from acquired branches until they have been under our ownership for at least four full fiscal quarters at the start of the fiscal reporting period. We believe the existing market information is useful to investors because it helps explain organic growth or decline. When combined, our existing market information and acquired market information equal our consolidated company totals. When we refer to regions, we are referring to our geographic regions. When we refer to our net product costs, we are referring to our invoice cost less the impact of short-term buying programs (also referred to as “special buys”).

As of March 31, 2019, we had a total of 539 branches in operation. Our existing market calculations include the operating results of the 327 branches that meet our definition (212 branches were excluded because they were acquired after the start of fiscal year 2018).

1   Existing market operating expense for 2019 and 2018 includes $15.6 million ($11.4 million, net of taxes) and $33.9 million ($23.9 million, net of taxes), respectively, of non-recurring acquisition costs.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales increased 23.7% to $3.15 billion in 2019, from $2.55 billion in 2018. Existing market net sales increased 0.8% to $1.84 billion in 2019, from $1.83 billion in 2018. The year-over-year increase in existing market net sales was mainly influenced by the following factors:

 

double-digit net sales growth in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic markets;

 

stronger demand in the Mid-Atlantic market due to the impact of Hurricane Florence; and

 

higher pricing across all major product lines;

partially offset by:

 

decreased storm activity in the Southwest, Midwest, and West markets; and

 

the impact of harsh winter weather in 2019 on the Midwest and West markets.

Existing market net sales by geographical region increased (decreased) from 2018 to 2019 as follows: Northeast 15.3%; Mid-Atlantic 22.1%; Southeast 0.6%; Southwest (8.0%); Midwest (7.3%); West (20.1%); and Canada (2.0%).

We estimate the impact of inflation or deflation on our sales and gross profit by looking at changes in our average selling prices and gross margins (discussed below).

Consolidated gross profit increased 26.7% to $770.6 million in 2019, from $608.1 million in 2018. Existing market gross profit decreased 0.8% to $424.2 million in 2019, from $427.5 million in 2018.

Consolidated gross margin was 24.5% in 2019, up 0.6% from 23.9% in 2018. Existing market gross margin was 23.0% in 2019, down 0.4% from 23.4% in 2018. The year-over-year decrease in existing market gross margin was mainly influenced by a product cost increase of approximately 7% across all products, partially offset by a price increase across all products of approximately 7% and an unfavorable mix shift.

Consolidated gross margin was slightly higher than existing market gross margin due to the positive impact of recent acquisitions. Consolidated direct sales (products shipped by our vendors directly to our customers), which typically have substantially lower gross margins (and operating expense) compared to our warehouse sales, represented 12.6% and 13.7% of our net sales in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Consolidated operating expense increased 27.7% to $786.9 million in 2019, from $616.4 million in 2018. Existing market operating expense decreased 2.8% to $410.1 million in 2019, from $422.1 million in 2018. The year-over-year decrease in existing market operating expense was mainly influenced by the following factors:

 

a net decrease in general and administrative expense of $13.4 million, mainly due to higher incursion of acquisition-related costs in the prior period;

partially offset by:

 

an increase in warehouse operating expense of $2.3 million, mainly due to higher equipment costs in the current period.

During 2019 and 2018, we recorded amortization expense related to the intangible assets recorded under purchase accounting within our existing markets of $25.3 million and $30.8 million, respectively. Our existing market operating expense as a percentage of the related net sales in 2019 was 22.3%, compared to 23.1% in 2018.

35


Interest Expense, Financing Costs and Other

Interest expense, financing costs and other expense was $78.8 million in 2019, compared to $62.1 million in 2018. The increase was mainly driven by the additional interest costs related to a higher average outstanding debt balance over the comparative periods as a direct result of the Allied Acquisition.

Income Taxes

There was an income tax benefit of $26.2 million in 2019, compared to $71.4 million in 2018. The decrease in income tax benefit was mainly driven by the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. In 2018, the Company remeasured its deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the revised corporate tax rate, resulting in a $48.0 million non-recurring net tax benefit for the period. The effective tax rate, excluding any discrete items, was 27.9% in 2019, compared to 29.4% in 2018. We expect our fiscal year 2019 effective tax rate, excluding any discrete items, will range from approximately 27.0% to 28.0%.

Net Income (Loss)/Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) was $(69.0) million in 2019, compared to $0.9 million in 2018. There were $12.0 million of dividends on preferred shares in 2019, compared to $6.0 million in 2018, making net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of $(81.0) million in 2019, compared to $(5.1) million in 2018. We calculate net income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss), less dividends on preferred shares and adjustments for participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by utilizing the most dilutive result after applying and comparing the two-class method and if-converted method (see Note 5 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

The following table presents the all the components utilized to calculate basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we prepare certain financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), specifically:

 

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)/Adjusted EPS

 

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income that excludes non-recurring acquisition costs, the amortization of intangibles, business restructuring costs, and the non-recurring effects of tax reform. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share or "Adjusted EPS" is calculated by dividing the Adjusted Net Income (Loss) for the period by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the period.

36


We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expens e (net of interest income), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, non-recurring acquisition costs, and business restructuring costs. EBITDA is a measure commonly used in the distribution industry, and we present Adjusted EB ITDA to enhance your understanding of our operating performance.

We use these supplemental non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial performance, analyze the underlying trends in our business and establish operational goals and forecasts that are used when allocating resources.

We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful measures because they allow investors to better understand changes in underlying operating performance over comparative periods by providing investors with financial results that are unaffected by cyclical variances that can be driven by items such as investment activity or purchase accounting adjustments.

While we believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors when evaluating our business, they are not prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should be considered supplemental in nature. You should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for other financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may have material limitations and may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

In general, sales and net income are highest during our first, third and fourth fiscal quarters, which represent the peak months of construction and re-roofing, especially in our branches in the northern and mid-western U.S. and in Canada. We have historically incurred low net income levels or net losses during the second quarter when our sales are substantially lower.

We generally experience an increase in inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable during the third and fourth quarters of the year as a result of the seasonality of our business. Our peak cash usage generally occurs during the third quarter, primarily because accounts payable terms offered by our suppliers typically have due dates in April, May and June, while our peak accounts receivable collections typically occur from June through November.

We generally experience a slowing of our accounts receivable collections during our second quarter, mainly due to the inability of some of our customers to conduct their businesses effectively in inclement weather in certain divisions. We continue to attempt to collect those receivables, which require payment under our standard terms. We do not provide material concessions to our customers during this quarter of the year.

We generally experience our peak working capital needs during the third quarter after we build our inventories following the winter season but before we begin collecting on most of our spring receivables.

Results from the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 do not include the impact of the Allied Acquisition (see Note 3 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

Liquidity

Liquidity is defined as the current amount of readily available cash and the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet the current needs for cash. We assess our liquidity in terms of our cash and cash equivalents on hand and the ability to generate cash to fund our operating activities, taking into consideration available borrowings and the seasonal nature of our business.

Our principal sources of liquidity as of March 31, 2019   were our cash and cash equivalents of $0.6 million and our available borrowings of $781.7 million under our asset-based lending revolving credit facility.

Significant factors which could affect future liquidity include the following:

 

the adequacy of available bank lines of credit;

 

the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms;

 

cash flows generated from operating activities;

 

acquisitions; and

 

capital expenditures.

Our primary capital needs are for working capital obligations and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of working capital are cash from operations and bank borrowings. We have financed large acquisitions through increased bank borrowings and the issuance of long-term debt and common or preferred stock. We then repay any such borrowings with cash flows from operations. We have funded most of our capital expenditures with cash on hand, increased bank borrowings, or equipment financing, and then reduced those obligations with cash flows from operations.

We believe we currently have adequate liquidity and availability of capital to fund our present operations, meet our commitments on our existing debt and fund anticipated growth, including expansion in existing and targeted market areas. We seek potential acquisitions from time to time and hold discussions with certain acquisition candidates. If suitable acquisition opportunities or working capital needs arise that require additional financing, we believe that our financial position and earnings history provide a

39


sufficient base for obtaining additional financing resources at reasonable rates and terms. We may also choose to issue additional shares of common stock or preferred stock in order to raise funds.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $242.1 million in 2019, compared to $40.0 million in 2018. Cash from operations decreased $282.1 million due to an incremental cash outflow of $321.3 million stemming from changes to our net working capital, mainly driven by decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in net income after adjustments for non-cash items of $39.2 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $188.9 million in 2019, compared to $2.75 billion in 2018. The $2.56 billion of additional investing cash spend was primarily due to the impact of the Allied Acquisition in 2018, partially offset by the $164.0 million payment resulting from the 338(h)(10) election made in October 2018 (see Note 3 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $301.5 million in 2019, compared to $2.59 billion in 2018. The financing cash flow decrease of $2.29 billion was primarily due to the combined $2.27 billion impact of the 2025 Senior Notes and 2025 Term Loan that we entered into in 2018 in connection with the Allied Acquisition (see Note 8 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2019, we had access to the following financing arrangements:

 

an asset-based revolving line of credit in the United States;

 

an asset-based revolving line of credit in Canada;

 

a term loan; and

 

two separate senior notes instruments

Financing - Allied Acquisition

In connection with the Allied Acquisition, we entered into various financing arrangements totaling $3.57 billion, including an asset-based revolving line of credit of $1.30 billion (“2023 ABL”), $525.0 million of which was drawn at closing, and a $970.0 million term loan (“2025 Term Loan”). We also raised an additional $1.30 billion through the issuance of senior notes (the “2025 Senior Notes”).

The proceeds from these financing arrangements were used to finance the Allied Acquisition, to refinance or otherwise extinguish all third-party indebtedness, to pay fees and expenses associated with the acquisition, and to provide working capital and funds for other general corporate purposes. We capitalized new debt issuance costs totaling approximately $65.3 million related to the 2023 ABL, the 2025 Term Loan and the 2025 Senior Notes.

Since the financing arrangements entered into in connection with the Allied Acquisition had certain lenders who also participated in our previous financing arrangements, portions of the transactions were accounted for as either a debt modification or a debt extinguishment. In accordance with the accounting for debt modification, we expensed $2.0 million of debt issuance costs related to the Allied financing arrangements and recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $1.7 million. The remainder of the debt issuance costs will be amortized over the term of the Allied financing arrangements.

40


2023 ABL

On January 2, 2018, we entered into a $1.30 billion asset-based revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2023 ABL consists of revolving loans in both the United States (“2023 U.S. Revolver”) in the amount of $1.20 billion and Canada (“2023 Canada Revolver”) in the amount of $100.0 million. The 2023 ABL has a maturity date of January 2, 2023. The 2023 ABL has various borrowing tranches with an interest rate based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The current unused commitment fees on the 2023 ABL are 0.25% per annum.

There is one financial covenant under the 2023 ABL, which is a Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio. The Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) by Consolidated Fixed Charges (both as defined in the agreement). Per the covenant, our Consolidated Fixed Charge Ratio must be a minimum of 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter, calculated on a trailing four quarter basis. The Company was in compliance with this covenant as of March 31, 2019.

The 2023 ABL is secured by a first priority lien over substantially all of our and each guarantor’s accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, books, records and inventory (as well as intangibles related thereto), subject to certain customary exceptions (the “ABL Priority Collateral”), and a second priority lien over substantially all of our and each guarantor’s other assets, including all of the equity interests of any subsidiary held by us or any guarantor, subject to certain customary exceptions (the “Term Priority Collateral”). The 2023 ABL is guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by our active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the total balance outstanding on the 2023 ABL, net of $9.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $416.6 million. We also have outstanding standby letters of credit related to the 2023 U.S. Revolver in the amount of $13.4 million as of March 31, 2019.

2025 Term Loan

On January 2, 2018, we entered into a $970.0 million Term Loan with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2025 Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments in the amount of $2.4 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its January 2, 2025 maturity date. The interest rate is based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. We have the option of selecting a LIBOR period that determines the rate at which interest can accrue on the Term Loan as well as the period in which interest payments are made.

The 2025 Term Loan is secured by a first priority lien on the Term Priority Collateral and a second priority lien on the ABL Priority Collateral. Certain excluded assets will not be included in the Term Priority Collateral and the ABL Priority Collateral. The Term Loan is guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by our active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2025 Term Loan, net of $31.7 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $928.6 million.

2025 Senior Notes

On October 25, 2017, Beacon Escrow Corporation, our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Escrow Issuer”), completed a private offering of $1.30 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2025 at an issue price of 100%. The 2025 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.875% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, beginning May 1, 2018. We anticipate repaying the 2025 Senior Notes at the maturity date of November 1, 2025. Per the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the net proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes remained in escrow until they were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of the Allied Acquisition payable at closing on January 2, 2018.

Upon closing of the Allied Acquisition on January 2, 2018, (i) the Escrow Issuer merged with and into us, and we assumed all obligations under the 2025 Senior Notes; and (ii) all our existing domestic subsidiaries (including the entities acquired in the Allied Acquisition) became guarantors of the 2025 Senior Notes.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2025 Senior Notes, net of $18.5 million of debt issuance costs, was $1.28 billion.

In connection with the Roofing Supply Group (“RSG”) acquisition in fiscal year 2016, we entered into various financing arrangements totaling $1.45 billion, including an asset-based revolving line of credit (“2020 ABL”) of $700.0 million ($350.0 million of which was drawn at closing) and a $450.0 million term loan (“2022 Term Loan”). We also raised an additional $300.0 million through the issuance of senior notes (the “2023 Senior Notes”).

41


The proceeds from these financing arrangements were used to provide working capital and funds for other general corporate purposes, to refinance or otherwise extinguish all third-party indebtedness, to finance the acquisition, and to pay fees and expenses associated with the RSG acquisition. We incurred debt issuance costs totaling approximately $31.3 million related to the 2020 ABL, 2022 Term Loan, and 2023 Senior Notes.

2020 ABL

On October 1, 2015, we entered into a $700.0 million asset-based revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2020 ABL had an original maturity date of October 1, 2020 and consisted of revolving loans in both the United States, in the amount of $670.0 million, and Canada, in the amount of $30.0 million. The 2020 ABL had various borrowing tranches with an interest rate based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. The full balance of the 2020 ABL was paid on January 2, 2018 in conjunction with the Allied Acquisition.

2022 Term Loan

On October 1, 2015, we entered into a $450.0 million Term Loan with Citibank N.A., and a syndicate of other lenders. The 2022 Term Loan required quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.1 million, with the remaining outstanding principal to be paid on its original maturity date of October 1, 2022. The interest rate was based on a LIBOR rate (with a floor) plus a fixed spread. We had the option of selecting a LIBOR period that determined the rate at which interest would accrue, as well as the period in which interest payments are made. The full balance of the 2022 Term Loan was paid on January 2, 2018 in conjunction with the Allied Acquisition, including the write-off of $0.7 million in debt issuance costs.

2023 Senior Notes

On October 1, 2015, we raised $300.0 million by issuing senior notes due 2023. The 2023 Senior Notes have a coupon rate of 6.38% per annum and are payable semi-annually in arrears, beginning April 1, 2016. There are early payment provisions in the indenture in which we would be subject to “make whole” provisions. We anticipate repaying the notes at the maturity date of October 1, 2023.

The 2023 Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally by our active United States subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the 2023 Senior Notes, net of $5.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $294.2 million.

Equipment Financing Facilities and Other

As of March 31, 2019, we had $9.1 million outstanding under equipment financing facilities, with fixed interest rates ranging from 2.33% to 3.25% and payments due through September 2021.

As of March 31, 2019, we had $9.7 million of capital lease obligations outstanding. These leases have interest rates ranging from 2.72% to 10.39% with payments due through November 2021.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the “Safe Harbor” Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

Our disclosure and analysis in this report contains forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our forward-looking statements express our current expectations or forecasts of possible future results or events, including projections of future performance, statements of management’s plans and objectives, future contracts, and forecasts of trends and other matters. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historic or current facts and often use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “outlook,” “project” and other words and expressions of similar meaning. No assurance can be given that the results in any forward-looking statements will be achieved and actual results could be affected by one or more factors, which could cause them to differ materially. For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.

Certain factors that may affect our business and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements include those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our market risk disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of its 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K have not changed materially during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2019, management, including the CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)). Based on that evaluation, management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

On January 2, 2018, we completed our acquisition of Allied Building Products Corp. ("Allied"). As permitted under existing SEC staff guidance, management elected to exclude Allied from our internal controls assessment for fiscal year 2018. However, for fiscal year 2019, the acquired Allied business is within the scope of management’s assessment of internal controls. Although management has not fully integrated all of the acquired Allied branches, the internal controls at the Allied branches were part of management’s assessment of internal controls for effectiveness as of March 31, 2019. The full integration of the remaining Allied branches may lead to changes in future periods, but we do not expect these changes to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

Including the Allied Acquisition, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Re: Employment and Post-Employment Exclusive Consulting Agreement

 

Dear Paul:

This letter when signed by you, will constitute the full agreement between you and Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. and Beacon Sales Acquisition, Inc. (together, “the Company”) on the terms of your continued employment with, and eventual transition to an exclusive independent consultant for, the Company (the “Agreement”).  

 

1.

Your employment with the Company will continue until a date chosen by the Company, anticipated to be approximately 60 days after the start date of your successor President & CEO (the “Separation Date”).  From the date of this Agreement through the start date of your successor, you will continue to devote your best efforts to faithfully discharge your duties to the Company as its President & CEO.  Following your successor’s start date until your Separation Date, you will remain a full-time employee but will resign from the Board of Directors, and you will take reasonable and appropriate actions to cooperatively and smoothly transition the duties of President and CEO to your successor.

 

(a)

Through your Separation Date, you will continue to be provided with your current base salary and you will continue to participate in the Company’s employee benefits plans in accordance with their terms.  Your FY19 cash bonus will be paid after the close of the fiscal year and the determination by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the achievement of the performance metrics in your FY19 bonus plan and payment will be prorated from the start of the fiscal year through the Separation Date.  You will not be entitled to participate in the management cash bonus plan for the fiscal year beginning October 1,

 

6701 Democracy Boulevard • Suite 200 • Bethesda, MD 20817 • 301-272-2123 • www.beaconroofingsupply.com


 

2019, and you will not be entitled to any future equity grants under the Company’s Stock Plan.

 

2.

Your employment with the Company will terminate on the Separation Date.  Your final paycheck will include any unpaid base salary earned through the Separation Date, any accrued but unused vacation in accordance with the Company’s paid time off policy, and expense reimbursements in accordance with Company policy.  

 

3.

In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, ongoing compliance with your January 12, 2016 Restrictive Covenant Agreement at Exhibit A, and the execution and non-revocation of the Release of Claims (“Release”) at Exhibit B which will be presented to you on your Separation Date, you will be entitled to the following payments and benefits after your Separation Date:

 

(a)

The Company will provide you with a monthly exclusive consulting retainer of $58,000/month for 24 months (“Final Payment Date”). Beginning on the Separation Date and ending on the Final Payment Date, you will make yourself reasonably available to the Company to provide consulting advice and handle special projects (such as integration-related activities, vendor and customer relations) from time to time as needed by the Company (“Exclusive Consulting Period”).  During the Exclusive Consulting Period, you will be an independent contractor and not an employee of the Company.  During the Exclusive Consulting Period, you will not accept other employment or provide any services for remuneration to any other person or business, except that you may accept paid Board of Director positions consistent with your obligations under your Restrictive Covenant Agreement and without conflict to any duties to the Company.  The Company also will reimburse you for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred on the Company’s behalf during the Exclusive Consulting Period, including providing you with your laptop, cell phone and related business equipment.

 

(b)

The Company will continue to provide group medical, dental and vision benefits to you and, if applicable, your current spouse and covered dependents, at the same cost it charges its active employees (paid by you through payroll deductions).  Assuming you continue to pay the required premiums, this continued medical, dental and vision coverage will expire on the date you become eligible for Medicare or other similar government-sponsored coverage or if earlier, the date you become eligible for coverage under another employer-provided group health plan.  The Company, in its sole discretion, may elect to purchase separate medical, dental and/or vision insurance for you and your current spouse and dependents, provided said insurance contains similar terms and conditions.  The Company reserves the right to change the benefits provided or your premium amount, consistent with changes applicable to the Company’s employees generally.  The Company will reflect the Company-paid portion of the premiums in the proper tax forms provided to you each year.

 


 

 

 

(c)

From the Separation Date through the Final Payment Date, your equity grants pursuant to the Company’s Stock Plan will continue to vest as if you remained an active employee.  Following the Final Payment Date, you will have one year to exercise any vested stock options.  All unvested equity at the Final Payment Date will be forfeited pursuant to the terms of the Stock Plan.

 

(d)

Except as stated above, all other benefits and compensation end on the Separation Date.  

 

(e)

You acknowledge that no other payments are due and owing to you.

 

(f)

The terms of your Restrictive Covenant Agreement will apply as if you remained an active employee and voluntarily resigned on the Final Payment Date.  You acknowledge that should you fail to comply with the restrictions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, (i) all cash payments under this Agreement shall cease immediately and you will be obligated to remit to the Company, within 30 days of written demand, all such amounts previously paid to you; (ii) all outstanding equity awards under the Stock Plan shall immediately be forfeited and, within 30 days of written demand, you will remit to the Company either a number of shares of common stock previously received in connection with the vesting of a restricted stock or restricted stock unit award or the exercise of a stock option or a cash payment equal to the number of such shares multiplied by the closing price of the common stock on the date the award vested; and (iii) continued medical, dental and vision coverage described in Paragraph 3(b) will cease.  You also agree that the Company will be entitled, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it, to seek injunctive relief.

 

(g)

In the event the enforceability of any of the covenants in this Paragraph are challenged in court, the applicable time as to such covenant shall be deemed tolled upon the filing of the lawsuit challenging such enforceability until the dispute is finally resolved and all periods of appeal have expired.  

 

4.

In the event of your death during the term of this Agreement, (a) no further payments of salary or continued pay will be made for any pay period after the date of death; (b) all outstanding equity awards will be governed by the applicable Award Agreements; and (c) the date of your death will be a “qualifying event” for purposes of COBRA, entitling your current spouse and covered dependents to elect continued health, dental and vision coverage in accordance with the terms of the plan and COBRA.

 

5.

You agree to not make any disparaging or negative statements about the Company or its affiliated companies and its and their officers, directors and employees.

 


 

 

6.

You acknowledge and agree that this Agreement, including the Release set forth in Exhibit B, sets forth the entire understanding between the parties concerning the matters discussed herein, that no promise or inducement has been offered to you to enter into this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein, and that the provisions of this Agreement are severable such that if any part of the Agreement is found to be unenforceable, the other parts shall remain fully valid and enforceable.

 

7.

You agree to notify the Company within seventy-two (72) hours after accepting new paid employment or Board positions.

 

8.

Except to the extent preempted by federal law, this Agreement will be interpreted, enforced, and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware which are applicable to contracts made and to be performed in that state and without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.

 

9.

Each monthly payment described in Paragraph 3(a) will be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. If at the time of your termination of employment for reasons other than death you are a “Key Employee” as determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(i), any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement that are subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall not be paid or commence to be paid until six months following your termination of employment, or if earlier, the date of death.

 

10.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in no event will any payment or benefits be provided pursuant to this Agreement if your employment is terminated by the Company prior to the Separation Date for cause (cause means, as determined by the Company in its reasonable judgment, your gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of your duties or your commission of any act of fraud or embezzlement against the Company or of any felony or act involving dishonesty).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the 25th day of February, 2019.

If any such territorial, time or activity limitation is determined to be unreasonable by a court or other tribunal, the parties agree to the modification and/or reduction of such territorial, time or activity limitations (including the imposition of such a limitation if it is missing) to such an area, period or scope of activity as said court or tribunal shall deem reasonable under the circumstances. Also, if Beacon seeks partial enforcement of Sections 4-7 as to a lesser territory, time or scope of activity, then Beacon shall be entitled to such reasonable partial enforcement.

Without limitation of the foregoing: (a) any one or more of clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), or (f) of Section 4 may be so severed from the remainder of this Agreement; (b) any one or more of Sections 4-7 may be so severed from the remainder of this Agreement; (c) the Territory shall be construed as if each state therein and each county within each such state were listed in a separate clause which may be so severed; and (d) the Restriction Period shall be construed as if each month therein were listed in a separate clause which may be so severed. In the event Employee violates any obligation

 

 


 

contained in this Agreement, the time period provided for with respect to such obligation shall be tolled (i.e., shall not run) as to Employee for so long as he is in breach thereof.

 

 

11.

Remedies . The remedies of each party hereunder shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly, successively, or together, in such party's sole discretion. Employee agrees that any violation of Sections 4-7 would cause irreparable harm to Beacon and its Affiliates. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, if Employee violates any provision of Sections 4-7 , then Beacon shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies that it may have, to specific, injunctive or other equitable relief (without the requirement of posting of a bond or other security) in order to enforce such provision.
